Chapter 3: A New World

Silence, deathly silence.

When the song "Ten Years" was sung, the whole bar fell silent in an instant.

Lin Chuan, who was on the stage at this time, saw this strange scene, but his heart became nervous inexplicably. He didn't know why this was happening, could it be that he was singing it wrong?

No, in his previous life, Lin Chuan often sang this song in bars, and he was already extremely proficient, so it shouldn't happen if he sang it wrong.

So what's going on?

Lin Chuan was a little hairy, in the case of so many pairs of eyes, staring at himself, it would be a lie not to be empty.

As a result, in the next moment, just as beads of sweat were faintly oozing from Lin Chuan's forehead, he suddenly heard the clapping of a few people.

Under the leadership of these people, the entire bar was suddenly filled with applause. There were even quite a few people who stood up while holding their wine glasses, excitedly shouting "one more" to the stage

"Whew!" Lin Chuan let out a sigh of relief, and subconsciously raised his hand and gently wiped it twice on his forehead.

The scene just now really scared him. But I never expected that after a short silence, there would be such a warm applause.

Standing backstage at this moment, Boss Xu and Lin Yiyang, who were also watching this scene, were also deeply shocked.

After a long time, Boss Xu said happily: "Little guy, I didn't expect your father to have two hits!" ”

"Of course, my dad is the best singer!" Lin Yiyang pursed his lips and said with a look of meaning on his face.

At this moment, he was proud to have such a father.

According to Boss Xu's regulations, Lin Chuan can only sing three songs on stage, and when the song "Ten Years" is sung, it just reaches the required number.

In the midst of a burst of shouts, Lin Chuan hugged the acoustic guitar and turned around and returned to the backstage.

"Daddy!" As soon as he saw Lin Chuan, Lin Yiyang couldn't wait to run over and threw himself into Lin Chuan's arms.

Boss Xu also walked over with a smile on his face, looked at Lin Chuan again with an approving gaze, and said slowly: "Xiaochuan, I didn't expect you to hide it deeply, you wrote the song just now, right?" ”

"I wrote it myself? Are you talking about the song "Ten Years"? Lin Chuan was stunned for a moment and said with some puzzlement.

"Ten years, that's a good name!" Boss Xu nodded in response to the question.

Suddenly, Lin Chuan's brows couldn't help frowning. This song "Ten Years" was one of Eason Chan's classic masterpieces in his previous life, and it was once circulated on the streets and alleys, and basically everyone knew about it.

However, the boss Xu in front of him seems to know nothing about this, which is a bit too unreasonable.

Thinking of this, Lin Chuan's expression moved, and just as he wanted to say something, he saw Boss Xu wave his hand, pat him on the shoulder, and said approvingly: "Good, very good, singer-songwriter, it's really rare!" ”

"Uh, Boss Xu......" Hearing this, Lin Chuan smiled embarrassedly, and as soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by Boss Xu again.

I saw him take out his wallet, take out five pink bills from it, and said with a smile: "This is your salary tonight, continue to work hard tomorrow!" ”

After receiving the five hundred yuan, Lin Chuan's heart gave birth to an unprecedented sense of achievement.

It's not too much, it's not too little. However, for him and Lin Yiyang at present, it means that they don't have to go hungry, let alone go to a noodle restaurant to eat only a bowl of noodles.

In addition, the money is a lot more than originally said, presumably it should be the song "Ten Years" that I sang, which played a key role.

But then again, why did Boss Xu say that this song was his own original, had he never heard it? After recalling the enthusiasm that those people had expressed just now after he finished singing, Lin Chuan's heart became even more suspicious.

When I left the bar, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

After eating a bowl of hot wontons at a roadside stall, the father and son each walked to their accommodation contentedly.

This night was full of novelty and expectation for Lin Chuan, and for Lin Yiyang, he felt unprecedented warmth.

The next morning, Lin Chuan still wore the old clothes and went out with an acoustic guitar on his back.

Along the way, Lin Yiyang, like other children of the same age, kept jumping and jumping, but kept humming the song "Ten Years" in his mouth.

Although the tone is a little inaccurate, and most of the lyrics can't be remembered, it doesn't affect Lin Yiyang's love for this song at all.

Especially the lyrics in it, for a child of his age, it is really obscure, but Lin Yiyang still sings it with relish, and even reaches a kind of obsession.

As long as there is a chance, Lin Yiyang will stand in place, his expression exaggerated and intoxicated.

Next, the father and son shuttled through various supermarkets, shopping malls and video stores, mainly because Lin Chuan wanted to figure out the speculation in his heart.

It wasn't until after noon that Lin Chuan let out a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face became relaxed.

This world is roughly no different from the world he lived in before, but the stars, movies and television, songs, and major variety shows that he was familiar with in his previous life are the same.

In this way, it is not surprising that Boss Xu is unfamiliar with the song "Ten Years". Because in this world, these songs have never existed at all.

After figuring out these, Lin Chuan's mood instantly became very good, with the memories of his previous life, as well as various classic songs and film and television variety shows, he was undoubtedly the same as opening a hanging.

Even for the upcoming talent show, Lin Chuan is more confident.

After the father and son had lunch, they went to a large bookstore. Now Lin Chuan has a strong curiosity about this new world and wants to understand it more thoroughly.

After entering the bookstore, I found that there were only a dozen or so people inside, but without exception, these people kept quiet, silently looking through the books they had chosen.

Lin Chuan and Lin Yiyang walked through the classification of various books, and finally stopped in front of a row of bookshelves of 'History and Literature'.

"Dad, how do you pronounce these words?" Lin Yiyang looked up at those words, studied them for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask.

Lin Chuan smiled slightly, stroked Lin Yiyang's face twice with pity, and said softly: "Those words read 'history and literature'." ”

"Oh, Daddy, when am I going to learn to read?" Lin Yiyang nodded solemnly, and suddenly frowned.

Hearing this, Lin Chuan's expression moved. That's right, with Lin Yiyang's age, he should indeed go to kindergarten to study.

Thinking of this, Lin Chuan said with a wry smile on his face: "Don't worry, when Dad makes money, he will definitely send you to a good kindergarten, and then there will be a teacher to teach Yang Yang to learn to read and write!" ”

"Oh, that's great......" Lin Yiyang couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and cheered happily in place.

This move naturally attracted other people who were reading the book to look sideways, and a trace of anger appeared on their faces.

Seeing this, Lin Chuan hurriedly squatted down, and after whispering a few words to Lin Yiyang, he saw that the little family hurriedly covered his mouth with his little hands, and secretly glanced at both sides in horror.

Next, Lin Chuan took out a history book on the bookshelf and quickly flipped through it. And Lin Yiyang was beside him, looking at the covers of other books boredly.

"Nowadays, there are not many young people who are interested in history!" I don't know how long it took, just when Lin Chuan was looking at those historical stories with relish, a slightly old and thick voice came from his side.

Lin Chuan turned his head and found that it was an old man with gray hair but bright eyes, also holding a history book in his hand, looking down.

"Hehe, uncle, it's not as strict as you said, it's just that young people nowadays like to absorb knowledge through the Internet!" Lin Chuan smiled and said in a low voice.

"Perhaps, but out of ten people, I can't find two, and the other young people are all immersed in online games all day long...... Maybe I'm too old to keep up with the pace, what is there to play in those online games, so that they can forget to sleep and eat, and they don't sleep all night......" The old man shook his head, and his face looked even more hateful.

Lin Chuan smiled slightly and did not continue to answer.

After a while, I heard the old man continue: "Young man, I see that you are quite interested in history, what do you do? ”

"Hehe, uncle, I'm singing!" Lin Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly.

"Singing? Are you a singer? The old man was also taken aback, and blurted out a question.

"You think about it too much, I'm just a singer who sings in a bar, if I'm really a star, how can I have time to come here to read books!" Lin Chuan smiled awkwardly and quickly explained.

When the old man listened, he nodded expressionlessly, and said softly: "Also, you don't look like a star like this!" ”

"Uh......" When Lin Chuan heard this, his face changed instantly.

Although this is true, it is not enough to say it so directly. However, the other party is also an old man, so Lin Chuan naturally doesn't care about anything.

As a result, just when he turned around and wanted to call Lin Yiyang and was about to leave, he found that the person was missing.

"Yangyang!" Lin Chuan whispered, but did not get any response.

"What, lost something?" The old man raised his eyebrows slightly and asked slowly.

"My son is gone!" Lin Chuan's face showed a hint of anxiety, put down the book in his hand, and was about to look elsewhere.

"Your son? Look at your age, you even have children. Don't worry, you won't lose it here, you take a closer look, maybe somewhere to hide from the storybook! The old man said unhurriedly.

Reading a storybook? Lin Chuan's heart moved, and the old man's words just reminded him.

So, after Lin Chuan thanked the old man, he strode towards the children's area. There are quite a few children's storybooks and comic books there, which are very popular with many children.

Presumably, when Lin Yiyang was reading by himself, he felt bored, and he ran over there unconsciously.

As a result, just as he was about to come to the children's area, he suddenly heard a scolding from the front. The next moment, Lin Chuan saw a middle-aged woman dressed as a waiter, holding a storybook in one hand and pointing at a little boy's forehead with the other.

And this little boy is the 'lost' Lin Yiyang.
