Because Xu Qingqiu had won the first season of "King of Songs," she didn't need to participate further in the show and could just wait for the final round.

Thus, during this period, she concentrated all her energy on her studio.

First came the upcoming schedule. Somehow, Sister Hua had managed to secure a quasi-first-tier magazine that confirmed Xu Qingqiu would be featured as the cover star.

Next, the times for joining three established variety shows were confirmed.

Lastly, there was the concert to organize, from shooting and producing promotional materials onward.

This also included applying for the stadium, filing registrations, and undergoing audits with the public security department, among other things.

The concert organizer, promoter, ticketing agent, and a host of other related matters all required meticulous handling.

Sister Hua alone couldn't manage it all.

Even Xu Qingqiu herself wasn't having an easy time. She was busy preparing songs for the "King of Mask Singer" finals, releasing a new song in a month, and handling many other tasks.

These tasks were intricate yet crucial, allowing no room for relaxation. A tough battle lay ahead, with tight deadlines and no time for rest.

The small gathering last night served both to alleviate the tension from the competition and as a small pep rally for the busy period ahead.

Early the next morning, Xu Qingqiu and her team hurried to the studio to start the day's work.

"Sister Hua isn't here today. Yiyi, make sure you coordinate well with the operations side. First, confirm the time and location for the promotional material shoot. Are the other details clear?"

"If the materials aren't shot, none of the subsequent work can proceed. So, the most crucial part now is the photography team; you need to have a clear handle on it."

"Okay, Sister Qiu. I've already spoken with Teacher Lin. He's coming over this afternoon to discuss the shoot. The equipment and location are all set; the only thing left is to confirm the shooting style."

"Good. I'll speak with him directly when he comes this afternoon. Just remember to inform me."

The two of them talked as they opened the door and walked towards the office.

Xu Qingqiu was still holding a cup of soy milk she'd bought from a convenience store, while Yiyi was also carrying several bags, large and small.

BEEP. BEEP.

Habitually opening the main door, Xu Qingqiu placed her bag on the table and immediately noticed a USB drive and an authorization letter placed on it.

This... Youmeng came again?

She paused for a moment, then a smile of surprise appeared on her face.

Her gaze swept around the office walls, a slight smile playing on her lips, as if she had discovered something incredible.

"What's up, Sister Qiu? Your smile is so creepy~"

"What? Yiyi! You've got a lot of nerve, calling me creepy?"

"Hahaha, Sister Qiu, it just slipped out, I didn't mean it~"

"Slipped out? I think you just have no filter!"

Perhaps because she was in such a good mood, it was rare for Xu Qingqiu to joke with Yiyi during work hours.

However, since they were in the office, they couldn't take it too far, so they stopped after a bit of playful banter.

"Sister Qiu, what were you doing just now? Smiling like that..."

Xu Qingqiu rolled her eyes at her, then picked up the USB drive from the table and said proudly, "Youmeng came by..."

"Ah? He was here? When? Is... is it him?"

"I don't know. First, let's listen to the song. We can check later and find out, can't we?"

"That's true. More good songs to listen to!"

Yiyi eagerly pulled her chair over, propped her elbows on the desk, cupped her chin in her hands, and pouted with anticipation as she watched Xu Qingqiu work on the computer.

"Huh? Why are there two songs?"

"Two? We asked for one before, and then asked again yesterday. And he gave two at once! It seems this Youmeng really isn't indifferent to you, Sister Qiu."

"What if Youmeng isn't *that person*? What will you do then, Sister Qiu?"

"Which one to choose, then?"

"If you choose him, well, he's a good person, tall and handsome, your first love, the white moonlight of your youth..."

"If you choose Youmeng, he's talented, steps forward in times of crisis, asks for nothing in return, doting..."

"Aiya, it's so hard to choose! Both are top-tier men, it's too difficult~"

Listening to Yiyi muttering such outrageous things.

Xu Qingqiu's entire face flushed red, but her heart was just as conflicted, and for a moment, she didn't know how to refute Yiyi.

"Stop muttering and listen to the song."

As the music began, the first song started playing, sung by a stiff, electronic female voice.

"It's almost dark here, what about there?~"

"The weather is cool here, what about there?~"

...

"What would it be like if we were still together now?"

"Would we still be deeply in love with each other?"

"Just like when we first started?"

"Holding hands even as dawn approaches?"

...

Everything the system produced was excellent; it was just this electronic voice that was too jarring.

You couldn't say it was bad, because the system's electronic female voice was extremely precise in pitch and everything else.

The only flaw was that it was too stiff and completely emotionless.

For someone listening for the first time, if they didn't know better, they could just sing along and it would be perfectly fine.

However, for professional singers, this kind of electronic sound wasn't just unhelpful; it could even interfere with their interpretation of the song.

Of course, it was just a demo, after all. At most, one could get a general sense of the song's overall meaning and structure from it.

No one would actually sing based on this.

Xu Qingqiu was no exception. She was just curious about what kind of song it was; listening to the general outline was enough for her to understand.

Besides, Yiyi was right next to her, and she wasn't a professional music student.
