Chapter 214: Chapter 210: A Bit Dreamy (4k)_2

Because everyone deliberately lowered their voice, fearful of breaking the dreamlike scene before them, the singing boy on the other side was not disturbed and continued to hum.

"In the distance under the azure sky, golden waves of wheat surge."

"At that place, you and I once loved..."

The chorus of the song repeated, but the emotion intensified.

After the buildup, the poetic imagery in the song felt even stronger.

Everyone gazed out the window, feeling as if the song was a live representation right in front of them.

The song’s artistic conception, alongside the present scenery, completely immersed everyone.

"Let the lost vows dance, drifting with the west wind."

"Just like your soft long hair, once fragrant in my dreams."

"Hmm...la...hmm...la..."

After the final hum, the person outside had put down his strumming fingers, and everyone was still slow to recover.

It wasn’t until several seconds later that someone couldn’t resist clapping, and then everyone was startled into applauding fiercely.

The overwhelming applause confused the passengers in the forward carriages who couldn’t see what was happening, wondering why there was sudden clapping.

Passengers in the carriage where Wu Mu performed felt the performance alone was worth the price of their tickets, with the beautiful scenery along the way paling in comparison to the recent fusion of song and scene.

Everyone felt the trip was worthwhile.

Just right, as if in coordination, as soon as the song finished, the train that had been stationary for a while began to move again, continuing the journey.

Then, someone finally reacted and leaned out to shout.

"Handsome guy, what’s the name of this song?"

The singer outside heard them and looked up, smiling at them, "Wind and Waves."

Wow, he looks even more handsome when he smiles.

Wei Qin, who had been watching, was dazzled, feeling as if the whole world had brightened up.

Wind and Waves?

What an apt name.

Wei Qing memorized the song title, planning to search for it later and save it to listen to again.

But the most important thing for now... naturally was to show off to her friends!

Wei Qin excitedly shared the recent video to her dorm room group chat and in her QQ space, adding the caption: "The scenery on the way home, a beautiful view, a lovely song."

Soon after sending, her dorm room group mates hadn’t replied yet as they might not have been looking at their phones, but the comments on QQ space filled the screen.

"Wu?"

"Holy shit, Wei Qin, you encountered Wu!"

"Wind and Waves? Wu’s new song?"

"Is Wu on a date? Qin, you’ve stumbled on something big; you’ve caught Wu having an affair!"

Wei Qin, reading the comments of classmates and friends beneath the post, felt dazed.

Wu?

Who’s that?

Why does it seem like many of her classmates and friends know him?

...

Wu Mu and Lin Qingyue watched the train disappear from view before turning back to the present.

Lin Qingyue, looking at the person in front of her, suddenly recalled a line she had read in a novel:

"See, can you see the wheat field over there? I don’t eat wheat, it’s of no use to me, but you have golden hair, the wheat reminds me of you, I might even fall in love with the sound of wind blowing through the wheat."

She figured that she’d probably think of today’s scene whenever she saw a wheat field from now on.

However, she still needed to ask the question on her mind.

"Who did you write this song for? Long hair? I have short hair, you know," she said with a half-smile.

Wu Mu understood her implication and spread his hands, "Didn’t write it for anyone, just felt long hair fit the artistic image better."

"I remember your boss has long hair, right?" Lin Qingyue hinted.

Wu Mu clicked his tongue, "No, not written for her. I’ve long moved past that."

"Really?" Lin Qingyue looked at him.

"Really," Wu Mu replied confidently, meeting her gaze.

This rumor was created by Li Jian, so of course it’s not about Liu Lan!

Lin Qingyue nodded with a smile, "Then that’s good, getting involved with her would do you no good."

After reminding Wu Mu, she didn’t forget to add, "I’ll clarify today’s incident later, I noticed quite a few people were filming."

Today’s incident naturally refers to their private meeting and then going out to enjoy the scenery and sing, which appeared to be a date.

Even if someone later discovered she used to be a director at Star Agency, many would still believe they were truly out on a date.

After all, it obviously was a private meeting, and no film crew was present to record a show, so it looked rather suspicious.

If she didn’t step in to explain, rumors about her and Wu Mu would definitely start circulating online.

But even with an explanation, some turbulence was inevitable, though it might somewhat mitigate the situation.

Wu Mu didn’t seem to mind, "It’s fine, the innocent will clear themselves."

Lin Qingyue smiled, "You’re not worried about your teacher Mo Mo misunderstanding?"

Little Mo, oh...

Wu Mu sighed with a smile and shook his head, not responding.

Having gathered enough wind and listened to enough songs, it was also getting late.

The two of them packed up their things and prepared to head home.

On the way back, Wu Mu drove for over three hours, and by the time it was completely dark, they finally arrived back in Beijing.

After having dinner together once more, Lin Qingyue dropped him off at his place.

Then, back home, Wu Mu checked his phone and, just as Lin Qingyue had suspected, the news of their "date" that afternoon was already spreading online.

Given that the heat from his appearance on "Idol Daily" yesterday hadn’t died down yet, everyone was already discussing his participation in the show.

Before anyone could conclude their discussions about the show, he had already released a new song.

With this supposed new romance also in the mix, the news spread incredibly fast.

As she had mentioned earlier, Lin Qingyue posted on Weibo to clarify for Wu Mu, explaining that she had taken Wu Mu out for inspiration for a new film.

Her explanation did clear things up a bit for Wu Mu, though many still doubted the veracity of her claims.

"Believe that? No way!"

"Why would a director need to take the male lead out for location scouting?"

"Do other shows have directors taking male leads out alone for inspiration?"

"Maybe if there were a few more people with them, we might believe you."

"But with just the two of you, a lone man and a lone woman, it totally looks like a date!"

They believed there was definitely something fishy, even if they weren’t dating, there were signs of something inappropriate.

However, problematic as it may be, the public reaction to Wu Mu’s situation was still quite positive.

After all, Wu Mu had changed from his previous crumbling celebrity image.

He was no longer the type of idol who relied on crafted public personas, but more on his genuine abilities.

Not just a rumor, even if he revealed a real relationship, it probably wouldn’t arouse much negativity.

People treated the news about Wu Mu and Lin Qingyue with more humor, joking that Wu Dog was trying to latch onto another rich woman.

His previous crush was on a company’s wealthy boss, and now it’s the director from a TV station, also Director Lin Xueming’s daughter.

All high-status individuals, obviously.

Aside from joking, many also discussed whether Wu Mu and Director Lin from Star Agency were a good match.

After digging up more on their past interactions at Star Agency, it turned out that despite some real differences in their statuses, they were quite compatible.

Their personalities seemed quite in sync, often understanding each other’s intentions with just a hint during conversations.

And they seemed quite comfortable with each other’s company.

Maybe these two being together wouldn’t be so bad?

Wu Mu naturally didn’t pay much attention to all this online buzz.

He briefly explained the situation to concerned friends and became occupied with another matter.

It was about Yang Rongfa and Wang Ren; after so many delays, their project was finally about to be finalized.
