    Qi Continent.


    Theposition department of Starlight Music is eerily quiet, colleagues nced at one another, their faces full of confusion.


    After a long while…


    Someone uncertainly asked, “Does ‘it’s done’ mean…he’s finished the order for this martial arts game?”


    How long has it been?


    Counting the time for themute, only about an hour or two, right?


    “Hmph.”


    Someone scoffed, “If his song is any good, I’ll eat my keyboard right here and now, believe it or not.”


    Impossible.


    Is Mr. Lin getting too cocky?


    Because he is a topposer from the Land of Music, he thinks he can crush us with his skills?


    So he casuallyposed a song while taking a restroom break, thinking it would outdo us?


    And that he could fool the client like that?


    Is he joking?


    Surely, he’s just too young.


    The client will make you realize, why they’re the boss!


    And didn’t Mr. Lin consider us when he did that?


    Does he really think that an order we couldn’t fulfill over several months could be easily tackled by him?


    Because of all this, a silence descended on the chat group.


    A silence so deep it felt almost suffocating.


    Finally, Gu Dong couldn’t help but tag Lin Yuan: “The client has high expectations, they won’t ept any mediocre songs. I hope Mr. Lin can be more serious inposing and not try to fool the client with a song that took only a few hours to make.”


    “Uh.”


    Although Gu Qiangyun was also upset, he was more worried about offending Lin Yuan. After all, Lin Yuan was a topposer from the Qin Continent. What if Lin got mad and decided not to help?


    We must keep him pleased.


    He let out a sigh, quickly tried to smooth things over in the group chat: “Maybe Mr. Lin was inspired as soon as he looked at the order. With Mr. Lin’s ability, he is definitely better than all us ckers at ourpany. But, Mr. Lin, I would suggest refining theposition a bit…”


    Lin Yuan didn’t exin. He simply tagged Gu Qiangyun: “Email.”


    The group chat was filled with ellipses. Nobody dared to speak their minds directly, let alone tag Lin Yuan like Gu Dong.


    After all, Mr. Lin’s position was high up.


    But through a series of ellipses, indirect expressions of dissatisfaction were possible, especially given everyone was posting ellipses.


    After all, where there’s safety in numbers.


    Feeling helpless, Gu Qiangyun shared his email address.


    Lin Yuan immediately sent the song to Gu Qiangyun’s email.


    “You have joined the chat group[The Real Company Group].”


    After sending the email, Gu Qiangyun found himself pulled into a new group chat by his daughter, and all his colleagues were also pulled in.


    This group was no different from the earlier one.


    The only difference was, Lin Yuan wasn’t in this group.


    So, the group that Lin Yuan just joined turned out to be the “fake group”?


    “What’s happening?”


    Asked Gu Qiangyun, disgruntled.


    Gu Dong’s office was right next to his. If the volume was high enough, she could hear his voice.


    Gu Dong didn’t answer.


    In the so-called real group, everyone was shocked or excited.


    “Ms. Goodoong is really assertive!”


    “Ms. Goodoong is awesome, stand up to him!”


    “What’s going on.”


    “Right, luckily, we have this group. Otherwise, I wouldn’t darement in that one.”


    “The representative is showing no regard for us.”


    At this moment, Gu Dong tagged Gu Qiangyun: “Can you let us listen to the song as well? Let’s see just how good the song that a gold medalposer managed to write in their precious one-hour break is.”


    Gu Qiangyun shook his head.


    Everyone was so against Mr. Lin.


    This isn’t right. Thepany was still relying on Mr. Lin’s help.


    And there was no question about Lin’s ability. At such a young age, he had already won a gold medal. Was there even a need to question his ability?


    The only issue was because of his outstanding talent at such a young age, Mr. Lin could be a little arrogant.


    But that could be understandable, right?


    Later, he would have to do some diplomatic work with everyone, they must not offend Mr. Lin.


    With this in mind, Gu Qiangyun decided not to upload the song into the group chat.


    Regardless of his ability, how could a piece by even the greatestposer, written in just one or two hours, be better than a work that ourposition departmentbored over for several months yet was still rejected by the client? He put on his headphones and opened his email.


    The song was titled “Laugh of the Jianghu”, and it looks like Mr. Lin had alreadypleted the lyrics as well.


    He moved the mouse and clicked on y.


    As Gu Qiangyun performed these actions, he didn’t hold any expectations.


    He was even browsing the news while listening to the song.


    The news would mention new projects from variouspanies in the Qi Continent, perhaps he could find new order opportunities?


    For therger musicpanies, orders came to them.


    For Starlight Music, they had to find their own orders.


    For example, this new web series being produced by a smallpany, they would definitely need a theme song, insert songs, end-credit songs, etc. He shouldter look into making contact with them… There’s also this news mentioned…


    Thud.


    Suddenly, Gu Qiangyun’s hand, which was moving the mouse, paused.


    The song “Laugh of the Jianghu” was still ying through his headphones. The strange synthetic sound had just reached the chorus: “Appearing like flower but not a flower, like mist but not mist. A relentless river that can’t be held back, a lone hero with an iron will and bones, turns out the hero is lonely…” Goosebumps suddenly rose up all over his body!


    Suddenly, Gu Qiangyun felt a chill coursing through him!


    He hastily scrolled back to the beginning of the song!


    This time, without any distractions, Gu Qiangyun focused intently on the song.


    At some point, Gu Qiangyun found his body involuntarily moving to the rhythm of the music.


    His body moved, causing the cold tea in front of him to ripple.


    The sun had set by this time.


    The red of the evening sunset gleamed through the window, casting a yellow light across the room.


    Within this scene.


    Gu Qiangyun’s expression was growing more exaggerated.


    When the song finished, he felt a tingle through his entire body, like he had just touched an electric current.


    Then, there was a knock on the door.


    Gu Dong pushed the door open and came in.


    Then, Gu Dong was taken aback.


    She saw Gu Qiangyun slumping in his couch, his entire bodypletely rxed, a tinge of…


    Happiness on his face?


    Gu Dong wasn’t sure if she was describing it correctly, but that’s the only word that she could find to describe the smile on Gu Qiangyun’s face.


    “What happened?” She asked anxiously.


    Gu Qiangyun ignored her.


    She raised her voice: “Manager?”


    Gu Qiangyun still ignored her.


    She raised her voice again: “Dad!”


    Soon as if waking from a dream, Gu Qiangyun looked at his daughter standing by the door, then at theputer before finally speaking:


    “Go and bring the new order in!”


    Just as she thought, Gu Dong let out a sigh: “Are we really going to give up on this current order? We spent a lot of efforts to get this order and breaking the contract won’t be cheap, couldn’t we contact the head office…”


    “Wait.”


    Gu Qiangyun waved his hand, took out his phone, and typed a message in the new group that Gu Dong had created before: “From now on, the client isn’t your boss. Mr. Lin is.”


    Once finished.


    Gu Qiangyun directly uploaded the downloaded “Laugh of the Jianghu” to the group file, then looked up at his daughter before saying:


    “It’s done.”
