Chapter 3 In Light Rain, the Old Dream Remained

Did the clouds anticipate it that day so that their steps were so light?

Feng Yufei's thoughts drifted into the distance along with her memories, plus her heart which had been pretending to be free and easy.

The moment Feng Yufei saw You Ruohan calmly "sleeping" there, even though knowing that this person had no relationship with her, she still could not help but cry.

She sent You Ruohan away for Feng Yufei. Would her husband in another time and space take good care of her parents after their death? It should be. That person's love for her was not as deep as she had expected, but he was also a filial person. Otherwise, he would not have fallen out with her many times for his mother.

The mother role was really great and boundless. No matter how bad a person was and how bad he was for this world, she had always loved you with no regrets, cared about everything concerning you, made all kinds of plans for you, and even did not hesitate to become enemies with the entire universe.

When we went from the ivory tower to society, when we encountered setbacks and hardships in the workplace, when we fell from the dream sky again and again, we would suddenly wake up—it turned out that facing this world, there were so many things that you couldn't get and couldn't do, but she did all of them for you.

So we put away our emotions with injuries, learning to be strong, to disguise, and to guard ourselves, but in the late night, we still hoped that someone would understand and love us as she did...

In the world's history that spanned thousands of years, the parting of life and death was not just described in China.

Farewell, everything on earth! Life had chosen a direction for me, and however reluctant, I had to go forward, because I was destined to never return to the past.

The past was like a dream with broken rains. The dream was not completely broken while the person had woken up first.

Let some memories and happiness stay at that moment. When it occasionally came back to our dreams at midnight, just reflect on them whole-heartedly.

After the farewell, Pan Yumei was still worried that, due to You Ruohan's death, Feng Yufei would be too sad to adjust his condition and devote himself to work. As expected of the son that You Ruohan had risked her life to protect, he hid his sadness and helplessness quickly and calmly handled his work. It turned out that these two were not only similar in appearance, but also in attitude and choice when facing some things.

Feng Yufei had not slept well in the past few nights, but after crying out loud in front of You Ruohan's tablet, she had already vented all the grievances, unwillingness, and anger that she had felt after coming to this world. Like her emotional burden, her heart was also empty, which had no place to rest.

That afternoon, she silently listened to the speech and farewell words of the higher-ups in the company and knelt for half a day.

By evening, when her legs couldn't feel anything, the farewell had also ended. With the help of Pan Yumei, she got up and rubbed her aching and numb knees and feet. She turned back, looked at You Ruohan amid the flowers, deeply engraved her last look into her mind, and solemnly said goodbye.

She thought, "We have not seen each other before this, but the first sentence we said when meeting for the first time was not hello but goodbye.

After saying goodbye, I would never see you again...

I hope that from now on, my seriousness and sincerity towards this world can bring me the tolerance and gentleness given by life."

No matter in her previous life or this life, please forgive her for being unfilial in front of her parents, unlike other children.

Tomorrow, she would face the storms and take the first step towards a new life.

The sunshine of July was just right, and the young man was determined to enter the world, not caring about the results or the future.

Before leaving, Feng Yufei looked back at the fans outside who couldn't bear to leave. They also knew that this farewell was permanent.

The beautiful woman who had stunned their youth had gone. The fantasies she had brought to them had also shattered like bubbles. What was buried with that person was their heavy and beautiful past. How could they be willing to part with it? How could they let it go so easily? If no other person entered their hearts in the future, the emptiness in their hearts would continue to be so.

But seeing the newcomer smile, how could one hear the old people cry.

On the second day of You Ruohan's farewell, all the major pages of the entertainment news were about Xingyun Entertainment's signing ceremony, where Shen Moyun joined the company and An Zidong, the music prodigy, made a comeback. You Ruohan's farewell was as poor as the time-space traveler Feng Yufei. Even if reported, it was only a vague brush that almost no one asked.

It turned out that the young man was called "Feng Yufei." An Zidong casually flipped through the entertainment publications of July. Glancing at everything, he silently remembered this name in his heart.

After exchanging a glance with him, he had a strong premonition that they would meet again.

Xingyun Entertainment had signed eight new stars this year, but the limelight of the press conference had been snatched away by the two old faces, Shen Moyun and An Zidong. The other newcomers and their agents were unwilling. On the contrary, Feng Yufei and his management company did not care about this at all. They were even a little happy to see it happen.

Right now, Feng Yufei needed to develop in a low profile and not expose his background. Although doing that would attract a lot of attention in the short term, his popularity would be fragile. If other competitors noticed and targeted him, it would be useless in the long run.

An Zidong was born as a child star. At the age of four, he stood out from dozens of children and went to the Spring Festival Gala, where he performed with the queen of folk songs. At the age of seven, he sang at the Spring Festival Gala for the second time and was praised by everyone. The "music prodigy" became his label all along. But after eight years old, he returned to school to study under his mother's arrangement and slowly faded out of the music industry and entertainment circle.

Although news related to him had always been reported by the media and there were rumors of him making a comeback every year, the fans and the audience had waited year after year, only to find out that the media had created hype to catch the public attention. Now, it was mentioned again, even with a picture. They didn't know whether they should believe it or laugh it off like before.

In the future, would she also face a public trust crisis like An Zidong?

Right now, she was just a newcomer who had just debuted, not even considered an eighteen-tier star. She seemed to be thinking too far ahead.

When hearing the reporter call his full name, Feng Yufei looked at him in surprise. As it turned out, An Zidong was handsome, but he was not the same as her ex-husband, who was also called "An Zidong". After that glance, Feng Yufei did not pay attention to him anymore.

This time, she actually met two people with exactly the same name. One, in his thirties, was considered famous in his career. The other was not yet an adult, but his achievements were also impressive. It turned out that people called "An Zidong" were so powerful. Feng Yufei sighed in her heart.

But she didn't know that she had already been targeted by someone. When she looked at An Zidong, her eyes were full of doubt yet expectation. Also, when seeing each other, she calmly moved her gaze away. It was all recorded by An Zidong.

She also did not know how awesome the people who signed the contract with Xingyun Entertainment this time were. More than half of them had "connections", several of whom were relatives of the first-tier and second-tier stars in the circle. Even An Zidong, who had the same name as her ex-husband, was not only a "music prodigy" who had performed at the Spring Festival Gala twice.

An Zidong's mother and Zhang Ji were close friends. Li Muqing, who had been reborn, had already known that An Zidong would sign a contract with Xingyun Entertainment. She was not surprised at all by this, but to her surprise, An Zidong signed with Xingyun Entertainment three years earlier than in her previous life.

Could it be that her rebirth had changed something?

Logically speaking, this should not be the case. Ever since she was reborn, she had done nothing but acknowledge Xiao Chuhong as her master. How could she possibly affect An Zidong?

There was only one possibility. In her previous life, An Zidong had planned to make a comeback at this time, but other things changed his mind. This time, because of his mother, who was his No. 2 agent, he had set the time forward for a few years.

With doubts, Li Muqing continued to browse the web and read the recent news in several major entertainment publications. After confirming that Xingyun Entertainment's low-key handling of Feng Yufei's identity was almost the same as her memory, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.

Fortunately, there were still many things that had not changed.

As expected, Feng Yufei still walked on the path of repaying debt for his mother. Shen Moyun also signed with Xingyun Entertainment for Zhang Ji, the "Super Star Creator", and her male god, An Zidong, also joined the company in advance, meeting Feng Yufei three years earlier than in the previous life.

She couldn't continue like this. She didn't want to repeat the same mistakes from her previous life. She really should do something.

Guided by the head office, together with the efforts of a group of mainstream media, You Ruohan's death was handled with indifference, but the influence would continue for a long time. The death of a top-tier female celebrity in China had an unexpected great impact. Her death had made things difficult for the relevant department and Zhang Ji for a long time. Until she was reborn, people would mention her every time something big happened in the circle. It could be seen from this.

Li Muqing was determined to learn dance from Xiao Chuhong, so she had to transfer to Yangcheng for school. Fortunately, the transfer process went smoothly, so she didn't have to worry about it. The only thing worthy of her attention and vigilance was the student spot that Xiao Chuhong gave her.

In her previous life, Feng Yufei had developed from an unqualified student to winning the championship in the first season. However, after graduation, he had stubbornly chosen music and made things difficult for Xiao Chuhong. This had delayed the preparations for the second season again and again. She would definitely not sit idly by and let this happen after being reborn.

On the seventh day of You Ruohan's death, the company considerately gave Feng Yufei a day off. She and Pan Yumei stood in front of You Ruohan's tombstone, among the clusters of flowers. In the photo, You Ruohan smiled more charmingly than the flowers.

"Victor, I have something to tell you." After coming down from You Ruohan's grave, Feng Yufei had just gotten into the car and sat down when Pan Yumei, who was beside him, habitually began to give instructions about work.

"What is it?" Feng Yufei skillfully fastened her seat belt. After a few days, she was already used to Pan Yumei and You Ruohan talking about work whenever free.

Pan Yumei turned the steering wheel and looked ahead seriously, "Of course, it's about your studies. The school has already been settled, and the company has also found you a tutor. You should study hard these few days, and you will be taking the school entrance exam next week. President Zhang asked a lot of friends for this, so your grades can't be too bad!"

Feng Yufei had already been transferred back from the US, but she had missed the entrance exam in June. Although Zhang Ji had asked someone to find a good school, she still had to show some ability to enter the school smoothly.

"Originally, it was already settled, but now something makes it very difficult. Therefore, you must earn a good grade to convince the school."

What Pan Yumei was going to say was related to An Zidong's comeback three years ahead of time, which was why Pan Yumei admired Zhang Ji more - friendship was friendship, and business was business. If you wanted to talk about friendship with me, don't business was off the table.

Even though An Zidong's mother and Zhang Ji had been classmates for many years, facing the company's interests, Zhang Ji still insisted that An Zidong should sign a long-term contract with Xingyun Entertainment. Therefore, An Zidong signed an eight-year contract like Feng Yufei. The advantage of having acquaintances was that An Zidong signed a relatively more flexible B+ contract, which was much better than Feng Yufei's B contract.

Feng Yufei's identity could not be revealed yet. The resources that You Ruohan had accumulated in the circle would inevitably be limited. After all, You Ruohan's opponents were not good people. Once they knew the inside story, they naturally would not give Feng Yufei a chance to grow up.

In her previous life, Feng Yufei had both good looks and talent, but it had always been difficult for him to reach the top. In the end, Zhang Ji had to give up on him. This was all because You Ruohan's old acquaintances were playing dirty behind their back.

"This year's new major shareholder is very powerful. He waved his hand and joined hands with Xiao Chuhong and several big companies in the circle to set up a Star Institute idol training class. As far as I know, the company has sent three people, namely you, An Zidong, and Liu Sisi."

When she mentioned Liu Sisi, Pan Yumei's facial expression was a little strange. Liu Sisi's aunt and You Ruohan were mortal enemies, but Zhang Ji clearly knew this and gave her such a precious spot.

An Zidong's reputation was prominent. With the company's resources, as long as he was willing to work hard, the money the company spent on him would definitely be doubled back. As for Feng Yufei, whether it was the friendship between You Ruohan and Zhang Ji, or the face that was born suitable for the entertainment circle, he should be given a spot. The company leaders and shareholders would not say anything.

Some of the big companies with deep backgrounds had heard the news that Feng Yufei had returned to the country. Before she signed the contract, someone had already come to discuss the matter of signing a contract. It could be seen how good You Ruohan's private relationship with others was.

As for Liu Sisi, Pan Yumei had only met her once during the signing ceremony. She was considered pretty in the circle but did not seem to be outstanding. The only thing she could compare with others was her little aunt, who was a first-tier beauty. Her aunt was once a formidable opponent of You Ruohan. If she wanted to make trouble, Feng Yufei's future career would not be so smooth.

This circle was very big. The staff and funds involved were unimaginable, but at the same time, it was also very small, so small that it could only accommodate one best newcomer every year. If the publicity and resources were not in place, Feng Yufei would have already lost to her in the company. What else could she use to compete with other newcomers for the throne of the best newcomer of the year?

"It is very difficult for a regular high school to accept a freshman taking leave for a year, and you are also a transfer student, so you have to get good grades in this exam."

Pan Yumei paused for a moment before continuing, "I have seen your previous grades. It was indeed not good, but you have to do well this time. Otherwise, you can only go to a private art school. You have to know that going to such a school is not good for your future development."

The private school could provide very little help to Feng Yufei. In the future, fewer influential people would stand up and speak up for Feng Yufei. If she lost one step at a time, the gap accumulated would be very big. How could Pan Yumei, who had brought You Ruohan, bear this?

Once a person had a better life, he didn't want to go back to the days of bitterly living under the mercy of others. The company stopped Pan Yumei's other work and specially appointed her to take Feng Yufei, a newcomer who was not even at eighteen-tier. It was already a great punishment and suffering for her.

If not for the fact that she was You Ruohan's son and that Pan Yumei still felt guilty for her and You Ruohan, Pan Yumei wouldn't have needed to explain so much.

Feng Yufei frowned and nodded, "Ok!"

Before being reborn, she was an advanced junior teacher. Although she had not taken exams for a long time, the entrance exam for senior high was not difficult for her. Furthermore, there was a tutor this time. Given enough time, Feng Yufei was confident that she could get good grades. Not to mention others, in terms of learning ability, she was not inferior to anyone else at all.

Instead, she was more worried about the clueless Star Institute and the idol training class Pan Yumei had mentioned.

No matter how she thought, it seemed like she was going to compete with others. She disliked competitions the most.
