Chapter 959 - 957: The Best
"Si Han, this is the acceptance speech that Sister Fang prepared for you, just take a quick look."Si Jun, who had somehow also taken his seat, sat down on the other side of Si Han and casually handed her a piece of paper.
Si Han took it and mumbled softly while unfolding it, "Sister Fang is something else, with Baobao almost ready to be born, she’s still got endless things to worry about."
Si Jun knew this was her way of showing concern for Tian Fang, so he jokingly teased, "If you’re so concerned about Sister Fang, then work well. That way, post-delivery, Sister Fang can earn a bit more commission to buy good food and clothes for the baby."
Si Han rolled her eyes at him, "Well, you hurry up too, living all alone like this," Si Han wasn’t fond of randomly pairing people up, but she hoped Si Jun could soon find someone to share both the cold and warm times with.
However, technically speaking, Si Jun was only a year or two older than Si Han, making him still quite young for a man. His career was on the rise, trying to stretch every 24 hours into 48. Where would he find the time or mindset for love?
"I’m not in a rush!" Si Jun’s answer was exactly what Si Han had anticipated.
Si Han gave him a deep look but said nothing more.
With the friendship between Si Jun and Si Han over the years, he understood her very well.
Seeing her turn her head silently with a blank expression to watch the stage, ignoring him, he extended a finger to poke her arm after a moment of silence.
Si Han turned her head and raised an eyebrow slightly at him.
"Don’t worry, I’m not thinking about anything else, just purely focusing on building my career foundation before considering major life decisions."
Si Han nodded gently but still said nothing.
On stage, the host enthusiastically went through the list of nominees for various awards, while Si Han seemed to watch the host, her gaze was actually empty.
At this moment, she wasn’t listening to what the host was saying, instead, she was carefully filtering through her friends to see if there were any with good personalities and decent overall conditions, who wouldn’t mind Si Jun being an orphan.
She wasn’t genuinely rush to foist someone onto Si Jun, but she wholeheartedly wished to help him find a like-minded friend. Who knows, maybe after spending some time together, it might turn into something more?
"Si Han... Si Han..."
Next to her, Si Jun nudged her urgently.
Si Han finally snapped out of it and turned her head to him quickly.
"Best Composer, it’s you!"
Si Han was slightly taken aback, turning to glance at the big screen on the stage, indeed, it spelled out in big letters the award winner: Si Han.
She hadn’t even realized that her composition won an award!
"Which piece?"
Si Han had already stood up, yet she took the opportunity to ask Si Jun while bending down.
"A Person’s Stage..."
This composition was created by Si Han for Tong Ke and Gao Xing, released in an album at the beginning of the year and still frequently played on major radio stations by year-end. It had been adapted into various musical styles like dance, jazz, R&B...
Since it was performed by Tong Ke and Gao Xing, the two singers naturally accompanied Si Han on stage to receive the award, and the award presenter on stage couldn’t help but blow a loud whistle.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm applause to our handsome and beautiful trio!"
Si Han had been in the entertainment circle for a few years, and she handled such occasions with ease. Even though it was her first award in the music field, just like a mother who has given birth before, the first time giving birth to a daughter might be quite nerve-wracking, but by the second time, whether it’s a son or daughter, one becomes much more composed.
"Brother Feng keeps getting more mischievous. With you and Sister Lan here, Tong Ke and Gao Xing, what kind of handsome and beautiful combo are we?"
Si Han casually took the microphone and cheerfully delivered a line that anyone would love to hear.
Sure enough, Brother Feng smiled broadly, and after handing her the trophy, gave her a gentle hug.
"Congratulations!"
This Brother Feng was considered a veteran in the music industry, and a casual word from him could shake up the contemporary music scene. He was famous for being difficult, with few daring to cross him.
To receive a sincere congratulations from him was greatly encouraging to a newcomer and signified recognition.
"Thank you!"
Si Han sweetly replied and then politely gave a slight hug to the other presenter.
"In the beginning, when Tong Ke and Gao Xing said that most songs from their album were composed by Si Han, surely many people privately said that Si Han must have a voice like a duck, or she must go out of tune all the way to Siberia. Otherwise, with so many good songs, why would she give them to someone else to sing? But who would have thought her voice was so stunning!"
Many fans of Si Han in the audience shouted loudly when Brother Feng stirred them up, "Who would have thought! It sounds amazing!"
Brother Feng successfully ignited the first wave of excitement in the room and smiled at Si Han, "Si Han, we’d all love to hear you sing a few lines of ’A Person’s Stage’..."
Si Han truly had no preparation for this.
Despite having confidence in herself, she had not expected to win the best composer award. Tong Ke glanced at Si Han, knowing she wasn’t mentally prepared, and quickly spoke up with a pained expression.
"Brother Feng, if Senior opens her mouth, who would be willing to buy the records of me and Gao Xing in the future? Brother Feng, could you leave a path for us small fries?"
Although he seemed to be complaining, everyone knew he was actually helping Si Han out of the situation.
Brother Feng, who was usually soft-hearted rather than hard-hearted, seeing the young ones indeed unprepared, relented, "Alright, alright, Tong Ke and Gao Xing, you two go get ready and perform well. Now, let’s hand it over to Si Han to hear her acceptance speech."
Si Han had looked at the note Si Jun handed her, but Tian Fang likely hadn’t expected her to win Best Composer, so the people she needed to thank were, of course, different.
"Thank you to my fans, my company, and all staff members. Thanks to Brother Ning and Brother Hao, and most importantly, thanks to my mentor Teacher Fan. It was him who opened the door to music for me, leading to so many pieces signed under the name Si Han. Thank you, thank you everyone!"
This time, she didn’t thank her family or the ones she loved because she knew true gratitude didn’t need to be declared aloud to everyone.
Si Han bowed deeply to the audience, then with the trophy in hand, she stepped down from the stage, leaving it to the performers Tong Ke and Gao Xing.
"Congratulations!" Si Jun walked all the way to the front of the stage, extending his hand to her.
Although there had been rumors about them before, both Si Jun and Si Han appeared rather straightforward. Now, Si Han confidently placed her palm in Si Jun’s hand as he escorted her back to her seat.
"Just now, Young Master Yu called asking if you needed him to attend?" Apparently, Ji Yu had already seen her award moment on the live stream.
