<h4>Chapter 43</h4>


    Ji Nian walked over to the piano and sat down on the piano bench. She tried ying a few notes on the piano. The keys felt pretty good when pressed, after all, grand pianos are expensive instruments.


    The piano in the vi owned by the male lead Ye Jingzhan must have been extremely expensive without a doubt. Judging from the feel, it was exceptional.


    Strange, who was this piano prepared for? Does the male lead also y music? It doesn''t seem to be mentioned in the novel, right? Or is it just a prop that rich people have to make things look nice?


    Ji Nian was toozy to ponder over such irrelevant matters. When she saw the piano, she felt a slight urge to y. A melody suddenly shed across her mind.


    So her hands started ying the melody, and the serene piano notes instantly broke the silence in the vi. At this moment, the entire hall was filled with the beautiful yet mncholy melody.


    Dream Wedding, this was a piece that Ji Nian had always loved very much. Back when she was not yet a music student, she fell in love instantly with this piece that her high school ssmate yed. That was why she chose to be a music student. Even though she had yed many great masterworks after that, but this piece still held special meaning in her heart.


    Yun Auntie, who was mopping the floor, unconsciously walked closer when she heard the music. She saw a woman elegantly ying the piano.


    Despite wearing pajamas and having loose hair, but that exquisite side profile and the cold aura exuded from her entire body, those slender and delicate fingers that yed out the gentle melody, one simply couldn''t help but indulge in this picture.


    When the piece ended, Ji Nian was still reminiscing the feel of the piano keys, she couldn''t help but sigh that this was truly the first time she had yed a piano that felt so good.


    Suddenly, her phone dinged, it was a text message. Ji Nian turned her head, somewhat puzzled as she picked up her phone to check. It turned out to be a message sent by one of the people-in-charge of the variety show Love Life.


    The gist was that the editing of Love Life variety show had beenpleted, it would be aired that night, asking her to follow their official ount on Weibo and help share it.


    At this moment, Yun Auntie who was at the corner finally snapped out of the music, then went back to her original spot to continue mopping the floor. She was quite shocked internally, she didn''t expect that Miss Shen''s friend seemed rather capable.


    Ji Nian had just logged in to Weibo and discovered that Love Life was already trending in the top 10 hot searches. After clicking in to take a look at the content andments, she was surprised to find that about half of them werementary about her.


    "Why is Ji Nian in there?"


    "I came because of the poprity of Book Yao''s darling, the princess supporting actress she yed was awesome, love her, must support her shows."


    "Trash Ji Nian does not deserve to be on the same show as Shen Shuyao, what was the director thinking?"


    "I''m a new fan of Shen Shuyao, didn''t watch Love Life variety show previously until I watched The Princess and got hooked. Still looking forward to it, but why is Ji Nian inside?"


    "I can''t even, why must she be everywhere, can she disappear already?"


    "Seeing so many people bashing Ji Nian, I don''t even have the nerve to say I''m her song fan anymore. To be honest and please don''t bash me, her singing is actually very nice."


    "The one above, I''m both Ji Nian''s looks fan and song fan! Hahaha this woman''s singing is indeed nice, (Ordinary Road) was awesome."


    "Speaking of which, has (Ordinary Road) been sold?"


    "Checking in, darling Shuyao''s variety show."


    Ji Nian saw in thements there were even some of her fans, she was shocked in her eyes. What? She actually had fans now? Must give her fans some likes!


    After reading, she liked the ounts of those two who imed to be her fans, and even replied them with a sentence - Don''t be shy okay, I rarely have fans, thanks for thepliments, I will keep working hard to produce new songs.


    She also replied the one that said it''s her looks fan with a shy emoji. Seeing thosements praising Shen Shuyao, she liked all of them too.


    On her end, she was done editing the Weibo post to promote Love Life''s content, specially tagging their official ount and Shen Shuyao''s Weibo ount handle.


    In less than 10 minutes, many private messages popped up on her Weibo. There were likes,ments, she curiously clicked in to see.


    "You think you also deserve to be on a show? If not for Cheng Li Ran, who would recognize you?"


    "If not for Cheng Li Ran, who would recognize you online?"


    "As expected, got famous from hype then really taking off now, even appearing in shows already."


    "Can''t stand it, disappear already."


    Upon seeing that entire string of ck fans''ments, Ji Nian blinked her eyes innocently. She was puzzled, why were that scumbag''s fans still bashing her?


    But as she scrolled further down, there were also many friendlyments that barely managed tofort her wounded heart.


    "The guest singer is so popr now that many bubble tea stores y this song. I listen to it on loop everyday and never get sick of it."


    "I like Noise, I like the guest singer, I also like Ordinary Road! This song was awesome, unfortunately there''s only video edits of it online. It''d be great if this was properly recorded into a song that I can listen to everyday, I''d definitely buy it."


    "Some inte celebrity has already covered Ordinary Road, sounds so nice. It''s a male vocal version. Wondering who bought the rights to this song, looking forward to it."


    "You guys didn''t notice? When Shen Shuyao''s new drama was aired, Ji Nian specially went to likements and asked everyone to watch it. These two must be good friends?"


    "The one above cracked the truth! During the filming of Love Life variety show, darling Shuyao''s drama was not even aired yet, she wasn''t popr at that time."


    Ji Nian saw this and sighed indeed the eyes ofizens were vicious, they even found out about this. In the past whenever she read news about celebrities suddenly being bombarded by a bunch of dirty scandals dug out byizens through their piercing scrutiny, forcing out all kinds of secrets. She felt like if she wanted to make it in the entertainment industry she''d really need to be careful, otherwise once she offends theizens one day it''ll be her turn to face waves of attacks that cause her to be unemployed.


    At this moment, the twoizens who received replies from the star herself were stupefied. They had always known Ji Nian often repliesizens''ments, but never expected that one day it would be them.


    On Ji Nian''s end, after exiting Weibo she wondered if she should record a video as someone currently trending? After all there were still quite a number of people following her Battle of Songs ount, although most were antis...but maintaining some presence wouldn''t hurt right?


    After thinking it through, she immediately clicked on her phone''s video recording function and found a nice corner to ce her phone. She then clicked the 5-second dy mode, hit record, and quickly ran to the piano to sit down properly.


    Dream Wedding resonated throughout the vi again as she yed more seriously this time, processing the emotions properly in all the strong and weak parts of the piece to bring them out.


    When she was done, she got up and ran over to click stop recording. Checking the video, she nodded satisfyingly and said: "Not bad, I''ll just post this then."


    Opening Battle of Songs app, she directly imported the video and trimmed away the segment of her walking over to stop recording. Then she typed an apanying caption.


    Life was never about choices, but passions. Here''s a piano piece - Dream Wedding dedicated to everyone.
