Chapter 6: I Got a Song
Lu Ran carried her packed things back to the short drama office, but she still couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth as she walked.
One word: awesome!
Lu Ran had long known that his colleagues disliked him, but they usually got along well and things remained peaceful.
But since you've jumped out and made me look bad, then I have no choice but to give you a good slap in the face.
Do you know how tiring it was for me to have that nonchalant expression just now? It's really hard to hold back a laugh!
Lu Ran put her things in the short drama department, then packed her things and went home.
As Lu Ran passed by the editorial department, he waved happily into it.
The colleagues in the editorial department looked at each other in bewilderment.
Although they knew that the short drama department was a newly established department, and that there was certainly no future in the short drama department as in the editorial department.
But the head of the editorial department is different.
That's already considered leadership. Even in a small department, they're still leaders. It would be so awkward if we met again.
Moreover, Lu Ran was only an intern, which made it even harder for them to accept.
"No way, I'm going to report him to the company. Lu Ran is just a lazy bum who slacks off all the time," the slightly chubby man in the plaid shirt said angrily.
"Come on, do you think the company doesn't know Lu Ran is slacking off? He has powerful connections. You should think about your impending elimination; you're already near the bottom." A colleague next to him patted him on the shoulder and continued.
"Some people are born in Rome, some are born to be beasts of burden; there's nothing you can do about it."
The man in the plaid shirt sat down like a deflated balloon, forced to continue revising his script.
Other colleagues also shifted their focus from Lu Ran's promotion to their own work, and the editorial department returned to how it was a few months ago.
As Li Mo passed by the editorial department, he glanced inside.
Yes, very good, they all worked very hard.
This is what an editorial department should be like. It seems that my decision to request the company to transfer Lu Ran away from the editorial department was quite wise.
In this era of intense competition, as a leader in the entertainment industry, he cannot allow any complacency to exist in the departments he is in charge of.
Unless you go to the short drama department.
With that in mind, Li Mo had a few employees in mind who would be suitable to be assigned to Lu Ran.

Shen Yuege slept unexpectedly soundly and comfortably. When she opened her eyes, the windowsill was already filled with sunlight.
She picked up her phone and glanced at it; it was already past ten in the morning.
This was the first time in a month that she had woken up this late.
She stretched lazily, feeling much of her recent fatigue dissipate, and it seemed that Shen Yuege, who always put her career first, had returned.
After washing up, Shen Yuege picked up the phone and dialed her agent, Chen Jing.
"Sister Jing, I've rested enough. How's the process of getting the songs for me going?" Shen Yuege resumed her usual work routine.
Upon hearing Shen Yuege's voice on the other end of the phone, Chen Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone became much more relaxed.
"It's good that you've rested. I have some good news for you. I got in touch with Teacher Huang Wenshan, and he happens to have a hidden gem of a demo that's supposedly of very high quality, very much in line with your previous style, and even shows some new breakthroughs!"
Huang Wenshan is a well-known gold-medal music producer in the industry, known for creating melodies that are beautiful and lyrics that resonate with the audience.
Generally speaking, it is very difficult to obtain songs by Mr. Huang Wenshan, which shows that Chen Jing has put a lot of effort into obtaining songs.
It's certainly good news that Huang Wenshan was able to arrange a song for Shen Yuege when there were rumors of conflict between her and her company.
"Really?" Shen Yuege's eyes lit up. "Book me a flight for this afternoon, I'll be right back."
"Okay, I'll arrange your afternoon schedule. Just come to the company and we'll discuss it in detail," Chen Jing instructed.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yuege felt much more relaxed.
Huang Wenshan is a very capable person in the industry. With his best work to back it up, the quality of the new album should be guaranteed.
By then, the rumors about her being "famous for her looks but not for her songs" and being a "pretty face" should be dispelled.
I changed my clothes and got ready to go out.
However, when she opened the bedroom door, she noticed the sticky note stuck to the door.
Above is Lu Ran's beautiful and slightly cute handwriting: Remember to eat breakfast ^-^.
Shen Yuege was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the restaurant.
On the dining table were two boxes of breakfast wrapped in insulated containers.
She went over and opened it; inside were fried eggs and a baked bun, with a cup of hot soy milk in a thermos next to them.
A warm current flowed silently into her heart at that moment.
How long has it been since she felt cared for so meticulously?
During the period when she became famous, she always ate in a hurry.
She put down her packed backpack and sat down.
At this moment, she didn't seem to be in such a hurry to go back to the company.
I savored this breakfast slowly and carefully; it tasted wonderful and had a more "homey" feel than what I'd had in a five-star hotel.
After finishing her meal, Shen Yuege looked at the empty room and felt a strange unease.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Yuege got up and took out a sticky note.
After thinking it over, I continued writing.
[The breakfast was delicious, but I'm going back to the office now. PS: Remember to make the eggs a little softer next time. —Song]
After finishing writing, Shen Yuege looked at the last sentence, which seemed to carry a hint of coquettishness, and found it somewhat amusing.
Just as Shen Yuege was pondering whether to stick the sticky note on the refrigerator or on the door, she heard the sound of a key turning outside the door!
Shen Yuege felt a sudden panic, as if she had done something wrong. Instinctively, she crumpled the sticky note she had just written into a ball and threw it into the trash can.
Almost simultaneously, Lu Ran pushed open the door and entered. The two looked at each other, their eyes meeting in a slightly awkward silence.
"Huh? You...are you going out?" Lu Ran looked at Shen Yuege, who was dressed neatly and had completely changed from her dejected state yesterday.
Shen Yuege quickly adjusted her expression, appearing natural and aloof, but upon closer inspection, one would notice that her ears were slightly red.
"Yeah, I was just about to leave. Sister Jing helped me book a good song, and I need to go back to the company now."
"Oh? That's great! Whose song is it?" Lu Ran couldn't help but ask.
"Huang Wenshan's songs, he's that gold-medal producer!" Shen Yuege replied as she stood up and picked up her backpack.
Hearing that it wasn't his song, Lu Ran was somewhat disappointed, but he was genuinely happy for Shen Yuege that she had managed to get a good song.
"Great job, senior! Looks like your new album is going to be a huge hit! Congratulations!"
Lu Ran was genuinely happy, because the more stable his sugar mommy's business was, the more stable his final payment would be.
However, if Shen Yue sang Huang Wenshan's song, does that mean she didn't have time for it or didn't even notice the song she submitted?
That's a bit of a shame.
