Producer System: My Girlfriend is a Cellist
Chapter 236 - 196: Forced Calm!

Chapter 236: Chapter 196: Forced Calm!

"Clothes we wear together?"

Lin Tian was somewhat stunned.

"Right, after all, it’s our first real-life appearance, and Teacher He Zhichen also said we should take it seriously, right?"

Gan Yanyu raised her finger earnestly, pondering,

"I was thinking, since we are different from ordinary musicians and are a duo, we should show a bit of that duo’s style, right? That would also leave a strong impression on people watching our live show for the first time..."

"Hold on, hold on..."

Lin Tian interrupted Gan Yanyu.

The more he listened, the more he felt something was amiss.

Lin Tian asked with a mix of uncertainty and suppressed delight:

"Do you mean, we should buy clothes of the same style, same collection, same pattern, just different designs for men and women... that sort of thing?!"

"How could that be possible."

Gan Yanyu’s eyes widened,

"Isn’t that couple’s outfits?"

"..."

Damn!

So you knew?!

Lin Tian felt like he had been played.

He thought what was about to unfold was the delightful segment where a completely clueless Gan Yanyu, under his own deceitful coaxing, would appear on screen wearing matching outfits with him...

"My idea is that we could choose some styles that are similar and coordinate well for our dressing, so that in front of the camera we have more of a duo vibe, like some bands that intentionally pursue a uniform clothing style,"

Gan Yanyu said.

She really was, as always, serious about dressing and fashion.

And this seriousness was actually because it could contribute to their music career.

So...

It was still about "finding a reason."

That’s also why Lin Tian, even though he had figured out his feelings so early on, had always acted cowardly.

It’s necessary to be cowardly!

Their topics of conversation were always, always about music!

Apart from eating and desserts, which to Gan Yanyu were essential for survival.

Whatever they discussed, it would always come back to serving music...

Such an extreme career-oriented mindset.

Sometimes, it wasn’t that Lin Tian was afraid of rejection.

But rather, even mentioning it felt like a crime.

She’s fighting for her dreams every day!

Do you U what, do you know?

And all you think about is how to get her into bed?

...He let his imagination roam for a moment.

Lin Tian felt that his confession might end up as—

The revolution is not yet successful, and you’re thinking of romance?

I can’t talk to you, typical small-time cook with a love-sick brain.

Honestly, how long have you been like this?

The great composer not thinking of changing the world, but how to change the relationship with your partner?

...

Too scary.

It’s not the fear of rejection that’s scary.

It’s that Lin Tian really had the thought that if the confession failed, he’d use force.

He might really not be able to resist doing something drastic with Gan Yanyu.

He himself thought his ideas were a bit dangerous.

Lin Tian’s personality might waver, might struggle, but he would either not act or act decisively.

Once he took action, it would either end up with him having bigger problems or with Gan Yanyu having a bigger belly!

If all else fails... he might consider the suggestion Xu Yong gave.

No, no...

Lin Tian held his head.

This sort of male chauvinism, no thank you!

Better think about how to bring it up when the time comes.

...

"Alright, it’s settled then. Get up early tomorrow and take a stroll in the mall."

"If it’s around noon, we can just eat there. There’s a place with great grilled fish."

".....Got it. In the afternoon, let’s go for that dessert place together. It’s a bit far, so we’ll have to take a taxi."

Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu made plans for tomorrow.

After getting everything arranged neatly,

Lin Tian watched as Gan Yanyu left.

Then, Lin Tian returned to the couch.

He opened the long-missed system settlement screen.

[Mission Complete: Create a piece of music, shoot a video performing it with your partner, get 2 million likes on any video platform, and achieve 98% audience satisfaction on any stage!]

[Reward Received: [Skill: Forced Calm]]

The most touching episode.

Because during the preliminaries, "One Step Away" ultimately didn’t achieve 98% audience satisfaction,

Lin Tian thought that the mission had failed.

Turns out, the system was quite humane, carrying over the task sequence.

It allowed Lin Tian to use a new song to continue the mission.

Eventually, it carried over to "Canon in D Major."

In the end, during the semi-finals, Lin Tian completed the mission satisfactorily.

And he got the new skill he wanted.

Lin Tian contemplated the [Forced Calm] displayed in the background.

With only an hour cooldown...

Seems like it could be worth a try.

But right now, there doesn’t seem to be anything that could cause his heart rate to increase or emotions to fluctuate.

So,

Lin Tian slowly shifted his gaze to the cotton slippers placed on the carpet by the front door.

These were a pair of slippers with bunny ears, which Gan Yanyu often brought over since she frequented Lin Tian’s house, leaving them there for convenience.

Over these two months, every time Gan Yanyu came over, she would wear these slippers.

Due to the fully enclosed plush material, the scent inside was well preserved. Gan Yanyu had just left ten minutes ago, there was still residual warmth; today she wore a pair of white ankle socks, and since she broke a sweat eating soup during dinner, that would have also soaked through the soles and socks, infusing the essence into these slippers...

If he were to take a closer sniff, it could be a good way to stir up some emotion...

Damn! How is that possible?

Lin Tian wouldn’t do something so bottom-of-the-barrel.

Even if he were to try, he’d wait until Mr. Gan wears pantyhose another day...

Lin Tian turned on the computer and found an exciting action movie.

After dragging the progress bar nonstop for 10 minutes...

[Forced Calm!]

Lin Tian whispered the ability in his mind.

Soon, the young man’s heartbeat instantly stabilized, and his eyes became firm.

"Awesome."

Lin Tian marveled.

A skill that even Cunzhi could achieve proves its value.

In the future, he should be able to easily deal with any sudden situations.

If he does anything extreme because of a confession failure, he could also stop himself with this skill...

As Lin Tian was mulling over this,

Suddenly, the system interface appeared.
