The next day.
"Coral Sea" successfully topped the charts.
This climb to the top wasn't as fast as the last time.
But the impact was several times more shocking!
After all, March was a veritable battlefield.
With the presence of the Music God Chen Shuhao and three ace producers.
And in this kind of lineup, "Coral Sea" was released six hours later.
To reach the number one spot on the new song chart in such a short period demonstrated Ting Yu's terrifying ability to dominate the charts.
The moment "Coral Sea" reached number one on the new song chart.
Weibo erupted once more.
The top four trending topics were all occupied by Ting Yu.
#Ting Yu's new song "Coral Sea" forcefully takes the top spot!#
#How powerful is the vocal ability of the talented newcomer Su Yu!#
#Yan Yu CP joins forces with super popular producer Ting Yu, forcefully dominating the charts!#
#The sea bird and the fish fall in love, it was just an accident!#
...
Netizens were already accustomed to this.
It seemed like every time Ting Yu released a new song, it would cause a great stir in the Chinese music scene.
This situation was not common. The last time this happened was during Chen Shuhao's peak.
"Damn it, is Weibo owned by Ting Yu? They get trending topics this easily?"
"This is not just about getting number one on the new song chart, they're taking the number one trending topic too!"
"Haha, only children choose, adults want it all!"
"Speaking of which, Chen Shuhao lost again."
"Losing to Ting Yu twice in a row, the Music God's status is in jeopardy."
"Although the Music God is just a nominee and won't be stripped of the title due to temporary poor performance, if he loses too many times, Chen Shuhao's position in the industry will definitely be affected."
"Haha, so satisfying. Luckily, I became a fan of Ting Yu from the beginning. Now it seems, it was worth it!"
"Those who mocked Ting Yu before, come out and let me see your current faces."
"Sorry, I was one of those who mocked Ting Yu, but now I've become Ting Yu's fan. Curse me, I'm that shameless, what can you do about it?"
"Holy crap, 666, saying you've switched sides so easily, my brother, you're a talent!"
After these two comebacks and face-slaps.
The biggest change was that many of Chen Shuhao's fans had switched allegiances and were now Ting Yu's fans.
For them, whoever had good music and could make them feel satisfied when arguing online, they would support.
These people were commonly known as fence-sitters.
Another portion of people still had confidence in Chen Shuhao and continued to support him silently.
After all, Chen Shuhao's achievements during his peak were very impressive.
Even though he had lost to Ting Yu twice, it was not enough for them to unfollow him.
On his Weibo, many fans spontaneously offered words of comfort.
"We came to admire you in your prime, and we will not leave you in your low points."
"Music God, keep fighting, we will always support you!"
"It's normal that you haven't recovered your form after being down for so long, don't worry too much about it."
"That's right, we admit defeat to Ting Yu, we'll just win back next time."
"Music God, second place is already very good!"
"Exactly, even at our worst, we are still second place."
Chen Shuhao saw all the comforting words from his fans.
He put down his phone and slumped onto the sofa.
Looking at the light above, a hint of dejection flashed in his eyes.
"Has my era truly passed?"
He murmured to himself.
He felt that there were no problems with the song he produced this time, but after its release, it didn't have the expected impact.
He checked it, but he couldn't find anything wrong with the song.
Everything was derived from his genuine emotions and personal experiences.
He was willing to reconcile with Ruan Mianmian just to find that genuine feeling for this song.
He endured Ruan Mianmian meeting up with other men after they reconciled.
It was also to experience this feeling so that he could write this song perfectly.
However, the song, which he considered perfect, no longer possessed the power to dominate the charts like before.
Why was that?
He opened his phone's music player.
The phone's Bluetooth connected to the home audio system.
He listened to Ting Yu's songs repeatedly.
After an unknown amount of time.
After he finished listening to all of them.
He suddenly had an answer in his heart.
"The market's aesthetic for music has been raised by Ting Yu's songs."
This was the most reasonable explanation.
Every song released by Ting Yu was of explosive quality.
Even the very first songs, "Later" and "What Can't Be" could be passed down as classics.
His consistent high-quality output for several months had improved the musical taste of netizens who were accustomed to simple pop songs.
Therefore, his song did not achieve the previous strong chart-topping situation.
Instead, it was on par with the other ace producers.
"Second place is second place then. Losing to him, it seems I have nothing to complain about..."
Chen Shuhao put down his phone and shook his head with a wry smile.
At this moment, Ruan Mianmian returned from outside.
The weather in March was still a bit cold, but she was dressed very lightly.
When she saw Chen Shuhao sitting in the living room, she put down her bag and walked over.
Then she leaned beside him and softly comforted him, "Don't worry too much, we'll win it back next time."
She felt very pleased. Although Chen Shuhao was no longer as good at writing songs, he was still a Music God. Having a Music God as a boyfriend, no one could shake her position as a diva in the Chinese music scene.
And Chen Shuhao was very obedient to her, completely under her control.
This was what she was most proud of.
"I've packed your things. The moving company will be here soon. You can check again to see if anything is missed."
The expected comfort and感动 from Chen Shuhao did not appear. What came was Chen Shuhao's cold words.
Ruan Mianmian was stunned on the spot.
"What... What did you say?" she asked in disbelief.
The current Chen Shuhao was like a different person.
So unfamiliar.
"Let's go, let's give each other a graceful exit."
Chen Shuhao stood up and walked towards his room.
Since his love songs couldn't defeat Ting Yu, Ruan Mianmian was no longer useful.
"You good-for-nothing Chen Shuhao, using me and then discarding me. What do you take me for? Believe it or not, I'll go out and smear your name, saying you only last three seconds, and ruin your reputation!"
Ruan Mianmian trembled with anger.
She never expected Chen Shuhao to suddenly kick her out.
Over the years, Chen Shuhao had been utterly obedient to her, and now he was so heartless.
"If you're not gone in half an hour, I don't mind throwing you out. I'll look at the lipstick in your bag before deciding whether to smear your name online."
After saying that, Chen Shuhao didn't hesitate.
Bang! With a sound.
He closed the door.
Leaving Ruan Mianmian standing there dumbfounded.
After she came to her senses, she opened her bag and took out that lipstick.
She snapped off a section.
A small, discreet listening device was hidden beneath the lipstick.
"Chen Shuhao, you just wait for me!"
Ruan Mianmian's face turned red with anger, and she could only stomp her feet in frustration.
She never imagined that Chen Shuhao, who was so obedient to her, would be so cunning.
Although she was furious, she had to pack her things and leave, because if what she said was exposed, she would likely become the laughingstock of everyone.
