Godly Stay-Home Dad (01-200)

Chapter 137 Four Songs

Accompanied by cheerful music, Xu Lan started singing the words of the first verse,

"Knowing that loving you has no result, I'm still crazy for hoping you will give me sweetness. I'm powerless and you're out of my reach. All fantasies are written into the song. I want to fly with you, fall with you, have empathy with you and have fun with you. I'm desired to do a lot of things with you, but only miss you."

The lyrics completely struck a chord in Xu Lan's heart. In her view, love was sweet and romantic. Unfortunately, it backfired. Since Wei Chengdong's family was in poor condition, Xu Lan's parents did not agree to the marriage. Although she knew that they had to undergo a lot of hardships, she struggled to continue to be in love with him.

The lyrics and melody seemed to tell the love she expected in her mind. The future she pursued was written in the song. She still had many things to do and hoped to try them all in the future.

After she finished this line, Wei Chengdong took the microphone and began to sing,

"I profess the love across the screen and the ambiguity is like honey surrounding my heart. I'm spellbound by your dalliance and willing to give up everything just for your beauty. I even didn't introduce my ex-girlfriend to friends but always mentioned you..."

Wei Chengdong had a deep understanding of this song. He knew that this song was about an online love story, in which although the hero realized his love would end indecisively, he still fell madly in it for he was fascinated by his lover and wanted to describe this feeling through his fantasy of love.

After finished singing, the two were silent for a moment, enjoying the feeling brought by the song.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

Suddenly struck a sound of knocking, which brought them back to earth.

Wei Chengdong walked to open the door and saw a take-out man who was breathless in the doorway.

"Oh, elder brother, I've called you many times. Why didn't you answer? I came up on foot!"

"Ah?" Wei Chengdong's face became red. Seeing the take-out man with tears, he felt a little guilty and said awkwardly, "I'm really sorry, my cell phone just ran out of power and turned off. It was my fault for forgetting charging it, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Hey, come on, remember to give me a good comment." The take-out man waved his hand and turned to leave.

"Okay, okay, I'll do it." Wei Chengdong nodded repeatedly.

Wei Chengdong took a whole-chicken set and put it on the computer table, saying, "Let's eat it first and have a look at the contract."

"Okay." Xu Lan replied with a smile.

The two checked the contract while eating the midnight snack which improved their living standards.

"Full copyright transfer? Isn't it? Am I right?" Wei Chengdong almost gushed out the mouthful of chicken steak he had just eaten.

Songs of full copyright transfer were still very rare. Generally, the songwriters would sign sharecropping contracts, especially the songwriters who could produce such a masterpiece.

"Yes, you're right." Xu Lan did notice the following information and said painfully, "Look at the following items, this song costs 200,000 yuan!"

"Ah?" 200,000 yuan?" Wei Chengdong froze. Then his face was permeated with bitterness and he said, "We, we don't have 200,000 yuan!"

They had only about 120,000 yuan in savings after struggling for several years. Although their monthly salary was relatively high, they could not make up their living expenses and music expenses!
