Ke Lan and Tong Jian gathered together to read the score while Xie Yang leisurely ate. A minute later, Tong Jian couldn’t help humming. Two minutes later, the score came to an abrupt end.

Ke Lan and Tong Jian flipped it over in unison and after making sure it was indeed finished, they looked up at Xie Yang together. Tong Jian couldn’t hold back his emotions and leaned over anxiously. “Xie Yang, where did you get this? Which composer’s work is it?” 

After the excitement, Ke Lan also showed a hesitant expression and didn’t speak. The song looked great just with the parts available but…

Xie Yang put down his chopsticks, drank his juice and replied, “IUD has always sung their own songs. Now that I’m a new member of IUD, the one I took out to show you is naturally my own work.”

Ke Lan and Tong Jian were really shocked, “You can write music?!”

“Yes, it’s very good as well.” Xie Yang had never been humble in such matters. He put down the juice and looked at the two people. “I can make IUD’s last song or album a classic, letting everyone’s last memory of IUD be the dazzling appearance of you on stage rather than the internal contradictions of the team members but I’m not doing charity. 

Ke Lan held back the anxious Tong Jian. “What do you want?”

The mice had been hooked to death by the bait.

Xie Yang leaned back against his chair and stared into their eyes. “I want you to sign to my company when the contract with Wenyi expires. The signing duration is 20 years.”

Tong Jian was stunned. “20 years? Are you crazy? What is the difference between signing and selling ourselves?”

“I’m not crazy. As I said earlier, you have no capital to talk about the conditions and there is no escape route. Now there are only two roads before you. Either you push this away and watch the IUD brand die due to Mo Bin, ruining your past and future, or you and I will cooperate to give IUD a good ending and then work alone for a glorious 20 years. You choose it yourself.”

Ke Lan and Tong Jian were silent. Indeed, they had no retreat. A few minutes later, Tong Jian gritted his teeth and picked up the score on the table. He whispered, “Brother, I want to sing this song. IUD needs it.”

Ke Lan closed his eyes.

He wanted to sing. This song was too amazing and ahead of the times. After it was released, it could take off IUD's flash in a pan title in one fell swoop and move countless fans. He also knew that he had no way to go back. Compaired with Tong Jian, his abilities were mediocre. It would be difficult for him to find a good development after the disbandment of IUD


However, 20 years. This was almost half a lifetime. Was it really necessary to arrange 20 years of life due to his present conscience?

“Ke Lan, you want to act, don’t you?”

Ke Lan’s heart was shocked and he looked up at Xie Yang.

“What is it so unexpected? I’ve seen your interviews and learned a bit about your affairs.” Xie Yang took off his previous toughness and started the gentleness. “I signed you not to crush you but to make money from you. Tong Jian’s voice is special and his singing skills are excellent. I only need one album and I can make him hot, completely getting rid of the intangible limitations of the IUD frame on him. Ke Lan, you can sing well but your tone is ordinary. You can write words and do arrangements but this is behind-the-scenes work. Only your face can support you in front of the stage, so I will definitely develop the value of your face to the greatest extent possible. You studied acting at university so I am willing to pay for it all. In any case, my plan for your career will definitely be based on respecting your wishes.”
