The Journey to Godhood in Another World

Chapter 38 Seeing Song Hui Again

On a day when sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows, a gentle breeze carries the scent of autumn. The leaves on the university campus are gradually turning golden, like a beautiful painting.

Luo Li was sitting in her quiet dormitory, soft light streaming in through the window and falling on the book in her hands. She lowered her head slightly, focused on the words on the pages, her long hair cascading down her shoulders like silk, exuding a serene aura.

Suddenly, the dormitory door was flung open, and Hu Xike rushed in. She grabbed Luo Li's arm and started to whine. "Ah Li, Ah Li, I have a favor to ask you, you have to promise me!" Hu Xike's eyes sparkled as she looked at Luo Li expectantly.

Luo Li was startled by her sudden action, almost dropping the book in her hands. She steadied the book, frowned slightly, and looked at Hu Xike, asking, "What's wrong? What's the rush?"

Hu Xike gripped Luo Li's arm tightly with both hands, shaking it as she said, "My aunt wants to get a song for her senior singer, Ke Shiyin, to perform at the National Day celebration. Originally, they were going to have Yun Ran, the company's top composer, write the song, but Yun Ran switched companies, and with only a few days left to register, my aunt is desperate and asked me to come to you to ask for a song. Please, please!" As she spoke, Hu Xike clasped her hands together, making a pitiful pleading gesture, her eyes filled with fervor.

Luo Li listened and pondered for a moment. Seeing this, Hu hope quickly added, "My aunt said that 'Nobody' and 'Dangerous Party' have received very good responses, and she asked me to definitely try to get them for you. Luo Li, please help me out."

"What are the specific requirements?" Luo Li asked.

"The requirement is a song that commemorates the martyrs and expresses patriotism," Hu Xike hurriedly replied.

Luo Li closed her eyes, her mind racing. Soon, a song that perfectly suited her requirements came to mind. She opened her eyes, searched for Ke Shiyin's songs online, and listened carefully. While Ke Shiyin's voice wasn't as distinctive as the Siren's, its range was still quite wide, and she should be able to handle the song. However, this was a choral piece, requiring more than just Ke Shiyin. Luo Li thought that she would need to find an elderly artist to sing with her, along with the child singer, and ideally, find all the other members of the chorus as well—this would be a huge undertaking.

Thinking of this, Luo Li raised her head and looked at Hu Xike, saying, "I need to talk to your aunt in person. Can we arrange it?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Xike's face immediately lit up with a bright smile. She excitedly said, "Of course, no problem!" Then, like a cheerful little bird, she flew off to call her aunt.

Luo Li watched Hu Xike's departing figure, her heart filled with anticipation. She knew this mission would be arduous, but if successful, it would be a very meaningful achievement.

At midday, the sunlight grew even warmer. Luo Li followed Hu Xike to an elegant private room in a restaurant. The restaurant was located in a bustling area of ​​the city, surrounded by heavy traffic, but the private room was remarkably quiet. The moment the door was opened, a faint fragrance of flowers wafted in. The room was exquisitely decorated, with artworks hanging on the walls and a bouquet of vibrant flowers on the table.

Luo Li and Hu Xike entered the private room, where two people were already seated. The moment Luo Li looked up, she exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Hui, what are you doing here? Are you Xike's aunt?"

Seeing Luo Li, Song Hui was also surprised. Her eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief. Song Hui stood up, smiled at Luo Li, and said, "Yes, I didn't expect we would be so destined. So you are Liu Liyue. I really didn't expect that!" As she spoke, the two stepped forward and shook hands firmly.

Hu Xike watched from the side, her mouth agape in surprise. "Auntie, you two know each other?"

Song Hui replied with a smile, "She was the one who saved Nan Nan back then, of course I know her. If Yun Ran hadn't switched jobs and I hadn't rushed back to deal with things, I would have definitely thanked Xiao Li properly back then."

"That's wonderful! So the sister Nan Nan has been looking for is you!" Hu Xike said excitedly.

Luo Li was also filled with emotion. She recalled the scene of saving Song Hui's son, and never expected to meet her again here today. She looked at Song Hui and smiled, saying, "Sister Hui, what a coincidence. I never thought we would meet again in this way."

Luo Li's gaze shifted to Ke Shiyin beside her. Ke Shiyin sat there quietly, elegant and beautiful. Her eyes revealed a gentleness and expectation. Luo Li quickly apologized, "I composed a song according to the requirements, but it's a chorus piece. Sister Hui, take a look, do you have any suitable veteran singers in our company who can participate? We also need a group of older and middle-aged singers to participate in the chorus, and we also need a child's voice. Do you have anyone in mind? Of course, if you're not satisfied, I can try to compose another song." After Luo Li finished speaking, she handed the sheet music to Song Hui.

Song Hui took the sheet music and began to study it intently. Her eyes were filled with focus and anticipation. After a while, Song Hui looked up at Luo Li and said, "Xiao Li, this song is really good. I think we can discuss the selection of the performer."

Luo Li nodded and said, "This song needs people of different ages to sing together in order to better express the theme of remembering the martyrs and the feelings of patriotism. Senior artists can bring the weight and depth of time, while children's voices can add innocence and hope. The performance by three generations will create a unique spark."

Ke Shiyin also chimed in, "I also think this song is very moving. If we can find the right person to perform it, it will definitely be amazing."

Hu Xike excitedly said from the side, "Then let's quickly think of a way to find a suitable person."

A lively discussion ensued. Song Hui suggested some suitable older singers from within the company, while Luo Li, based on the characteristics of the song, proposed some requirements for the children's voices. Everyone chimed in with their opinions, creating a very enthusiastic atmosphere.

During the discussion, Luo Li was filled with anticipation and nervousness. She knew that this task was not just about completing a song, but also about expressing remembrance of the martyrs and love for the country at the National Day celebrations. She hoped to find the most suitable person to make the song truly move people's hearts.

As the discussion deepened, everyone's thoughts became clearer. Song Hui decided to contact the older singers in the company as soon as she got back to see if anyone was willing to participate. Her eyes were firm and confident, as if she could already see the dawn of success. Luo Li began searching for suitable child singers. She took out her phone and searched for relevant information online, constantly muttering some requirements. Hu Xike also offered to help in the search, excitedly pacing around the room, talking about various ideas. Sunlight streamed through the window, adding a warm touch to the lively discussion. They all knew that this was a significant challenge, and they were taking solid steps towards success.
