I Was Stuck on the Same Day For a Thousand Years-Chapter 358

Chapter 358: “Knocking”

Wu Chen’s handwriting is very beautiful. Of course, this was not the point. An Menglan had been paying attention to what Wu Chen was writing.

She sat opposite Wu Chen and had difficulty reading backwards.

After a while, Wu Chen was still writing.

An Menglan couldn’t help it anymore. She stood up, walked around the table, and sat on the chair next to Wu Chen. She tilted her head and looked at Wu Chen.

Generally speaking, young and beautiful women would not sit next to men with whom they were not close with. Even if they were friends for many years, men and women would not sit next to each other like this to prevent the other party from misunderstanding.

An Menglan didn’t think much about it.

All her thoughts were in Wu Chen’s lyrics.

Moreover, her personality was such that she was so straightforward and casual!

It was fine, so what was there to worry about?

About ten minutes later, Wu Chen had written the lyrics.

The total number was about 400 words!

Then he started composing the music!

Various annotations!

Wu Chen even marked where the conversion between true and false sounds was needed to determine the general feeling of singing the lyrics!

It’s so detailed!

It took about half an hour in total. Wu Chen filled up three pages of A4 paper, with various circles and lines, and various markings. It looked like a “draft”!

It was finished!

Wu Chen put away his pen, capped it, turned to look at An Menglan and said with a smile, “That’s it!”

As he said that, he moved all the pages in front of An Menglan.

An Menglan picked it up and started to read it carefully from the beginning. While reading, she was still talking, but her voice was very low and it was difficult to be heard.

Wu Chen took a sip of coffee and turned to look out the window.

After a while, An Menglan was already reading the second page and subconsciously made a humming sound. She was looking for a feeling.

When singing the chorus, her toes were subconsciously tapping the ground little by little, looking for the rhythm.

“…There was a knock on the door… His sleeves were empty… The sunshine of the past… was not on his face, and his vicissitudes… despair… hope…”

An Menglan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

As an extremely professional musician, she could easily immerse herself in the emotions of music.

And now she already knew what Wu Chen’s song was about!

It’s about a wife, or mother, waiting for her husband or son who joined the army to come home. Day after day, she was waiting for the door to be knocked, and finally, the war is over.

The soldiers came back, but they were covered with injuries and disabilities.

The man who once had a sunny face had turned into a warrior who had gone through many vicissitudes of life!

He experienced despair and also ushered in hope!

Wu Chen’s song “Knocking” did not have any gorgeous rhetoric. The lyrics were very simple. But singing it with the melody really made An Menglan feel a little uncomfortable!

This was a “story” that expressed the cruelty of war! In essence, it was naturally an anti-war and calling for peace song!

She didn’t know what to say.

“When the door is shut…” An Menglan suddenly made a slightly louder voice, and then stopped for an instant. This was an instinctive reaction due to upbringing – you can’t sing in a Western restaurant!

An Menglan was too focused. Finally being “awake” at this moment, she raised her head, looked at Wu Chen and said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Wu…”

As she said this, she looked around again.

Only then did she realize that there were more and more people in the Western restaurant.

Because it was past eleven o’clock at noon, guests naturally began to arrive during lunch time. Many guests had already noticed the superstar An Menglan and looked towards An Menglan.

They all saw An Menglan sitting with a young man.

“How was it? Are you satisfied?” Wu Chen turned his head and asked An Menglan with a smile.

“Hmm… it’s very well written,” An Menglan said, but she was a little uneasy and looked around again.

It’s because there were too many people.

The troubles of celebrities!

Although people with status came here to eat, no one had come to disturb them yet. But if there were more people in a while, it was very likely that someone would come over and ask for photos or autographs.

Moreover, it was very possible for someone to secretly take photos and post them online, which would lead to scandal! An Menglan didn’t like this unnecessary trouble! She lowered her head

and looked at the manuscript in her hand. An Menglan raised her head again, looked at Wu Chen and said, “Mr. Wu, can you come upstairs with me? There is a piano in the room. I want to try this song now…”

An Menglan invited Wu Chen to the room!

She didn’t think too much. She had to change places. She would be surrounded here, and she really wanted to try to sing “Knockiing” now. She could feel that it was a good song, but how good was it?

To judge the extent, she had to actually sing it.

“Okay!” Wu Chen nodded and agreed, then smiled at An Menglan and said, “Wait for me at the elevator.”

An Menglan reacted and then understood what Wu Chen meant.

The two of them couldn’t walk together, they would be noticed!

“Okay, thank you Mr. Wu.” An Menglan also smiled at Wu Chen, then took out a mask, put it on, and stood up with the manuscript.

An Menglan left the western restaurant first.

Wu Chen signaled to the waiter nearby, paid for the coffee, then stood up and left.

He left the restaurant.

He went through the long and luxurious corridor and came to the elevator belonging to the guest room area.

An Menglan was standing there. Because she was wearing a mask when she came out, no one recognized her when she met new people.

The two of them entered the elevator.

An Menglan swiped her VIP card and went upstairs!

On the fifteenth floor, there was the presidential suite!

The presidential suite cost more than 10,000 yuan per night, but it was expensive for a reason. For example, the presidential suites in the Jiafu Hotel were all equipped with a piano room!

This Song Xuan arranged the room for An Menglan. As a pop star singer, she prepared a presidential suite with a piano room for her, which was a very considerate arrangement.

An Menglan took Wu Chen into the presidential suite.

Wu Chen stopped after passing the entrance. He put one hand in his pocket and looked around the living room of the presidential suite. It was luxurious and beautiful!

An Menglan, wearing high heels, quickly walked to the sofa and took off her high heels. ,Sheput on slippers, took off the mask, then turned around. She gestured to Wu Chen and said, “Mr. Wu, this way.”

She led Wu Chen towards the piano room.

In fact, Wu Chen saw it without her signaling. The piano was placed in an open room, with a balcony on the other side that could be seen directly.

An Menglan walked over, pulled out a chair, and sat in front of the piano.

The reason why she changed her shoes was to play the piano. It was very uncomfortable to wear high heels and step on the pedals under the piano. It was not impossible, but uncomfortable!

Flat shoes were best, but slippers were also fine!

An Menglan was a professional! She was proficient in piano and violin!

“Ahem!” An Menglan set up the manuscript, opened the piano keyboard cover, placed his hands on it, cleared her throat, and took two deep breaths…

She adjusted her state quickly!

She was about to start straight away! This song made her impatient!

Dang…

The clear and cold piano music played!

After the prelude, An Menglan opened her mouth and sang “Knocking” with her highly recognizable and magnetic voice! She played and sang by herself!

Although this was the first time she sung this anti-war song, but Wu Chen wrote the score very clearly. From a singing perspective, An Menglan would not have any problems. She could sing whatever Wu Chen wrote!

Wu Chen stood aside and listened.

About a minute later, Wu Chen suddenly reached out, took away the first page of the manuscript, and put it aside… It was time to change the page. An Menglan forgot to spread out the three pages before!

Although she sang very well and she played well, she just got the lyrics and music of this song. It was impossible to memorize it and play without any mistakes!

She needed to play and sing while staring at the manuscript.

More than two minutes passed.

She sung the song.

An Menglan frowned slightly because she felt something was wrong.

“I’ll do it again,” An Menglan said.

She was very focused when she was in the state, and she and Wu Chen were less polite.

The clear and cold piano prelude sounded again!

An Menglan sang it again!

Then the third time!

The fourth time!

She always frowned slightly, but she was not satisfied, but not with the song.

She wasn’t satisfied. She felt… she didn’t sing it the way she should have!

“Why do you play it wrong every time?” Wu Chen suddenly asked.

“Huh?” An Menglan, who was about to start the fifth time, stopped suddenly and turned to look at Wu Chen.

She paused for a moment before asking, “Mr. Wu, you can tell?”

“You miss a few notes every time. How could I not hear it?” Wu Chen smiled and said, “How about I do it? You sing and I play. You may need to stand up to have enough breath.”

An Menglan asked Wu Chen in surprise, “Mr. Wu can also play the piano?”

It was a familiar question.

Li Ruobing also asked Wu Chen this.
