The Journey to Godhood in Another World

The crisp ringing of the school bell, like a wondrous magical spell releasing its constraints, instantly brought the campus to life. Luo Li, with light steps, like a nimble deer, weaved through the bustling crowd and finally returned to her dormitory. Sunlight streamed through the window, like a soft veil, gently scattering across the floor and adding a touch of warmth to the small room.

She had just pushed open the dormitory door and hadn't even had time to put down her heavy backpack when she was suddenly embraced by a figure as enthusiastic as fire. "Ah Li, you're finally back!" Hu Xike's excited voice rang in her ears instantly. She was like an incredibly joyful little bird, her eyes sparkling as if they held the brilliance of stars, and her face was filled with a smile as bright as the sun.

Luo Li was caught off guard by this sudden enthusiasm, and her body involuntarily leaned back slightly, almost stumbling. She quickly steadied herself and said with a helpless smile, "Xike, what's wrong with you? Why are you so excited?" As she spoke, she gently placed her schoolbag on her desk, then pulled up a chair and slowly sat down, looking at Hu Xike with a full of doubt in her eyes.

Hu Xike gripped Luo Li's arm tightly with both hands, a fawning smile on her face, and said, "Li, can I ask you for a favor? You have to promise me." As she spoke, she gently shook Luo Li's arm, looking just like a spoiled child, making it hard to refuse.

Seeing Hu Xike's expression, Luo Li's curiosity grew even stronger. She smiled and nodded, saying, "Tell me what it is first."

Hu Xike jumped up excitedly, her eyes sparkling like stars in the night sky, and began to talk non-stop: "When I got home, I danced those two dances of yours. Oh my, you have no idea how energetic I was! And then, my aunt saw me. You know, my aunt is so sensitive to music. She immediately thought your two songs were really good. Now she really wants to buy them. My uncle is the president of Huaxi Entertainment, and my aunt is the director of the artist management department at Huaxi Entertainment. Pretty impressive, right? Their company is currently doing a big new talent development program."

Luo Li paused slightly upon hearing Hu Xike's words, a multitude of thoughts swirling within her. A complex emotion flashed in her eyes, like ripples spreading across a calm lake, but it quickly returned to its usual calm as she listened to Hu Xike continue speaking with a smile.

Hu Xike seemed completely oblivious to Luo Li's thoughts, continuing excitedly, "My aunt wants to debut a new girl group with 'Nobody.' I've met those five girls; they're all incredibly beautiful, perfectly fitting the public's aesthetic. Their dancing skills are also quite impressive; they're trainees that Huaxi Entertainment has been focusing on developing for the past two years. As for 'Dangerous Party,' my aunt wants to use it to promote another male trainee she's been focusing on developing. Recently, Brilliant Entertainment has been poaching people from Huaxi Entertainment. They even poached Yun Ran, Huaxi's only diamond composer, along with three senior singers and two well-known singers. This has really hurt Huaxi Entertainment; their artist department has lost a third of its resources. Huaxi urgently needs to cultivate new talent to fill the void left by their departure. So, A Li, my aunt really needs these two songs of yours." After saying this, Hu Xike clasped her hands together in front of her chest, looking at Luo Li expectantly with a face full of anticipation.

Luo Li listened quietly as Hu Xike finished speaking, her mind beginning to weigh her options. It was Brilliant Entertainment again. It was Ji Lingkun, the heir of Brilliant Entertainment, who had previously targeted Lu Jinchen. Brilliant Entertainment was truly arrogant and domineering, always causing trouble; they couldn't just develop peacefully. Looking at Hu Xike's expectant eyes, she couldn't help but recall the moments they shared in their dormitory. Although Hu Xike was sometimes carefree, she had always been quite good to her. Moreover, these two songs seemed genuinely significant to Huaxi Entertainment; if she could help, it wouldn't be a bad idea.

She nodded slightly, a gentle smile on her face, and said, "Okay, here's the audio. Give it to your aunt. You've already asked, so how can I refuse? Just pay the market price." As she spoke, she slowly got up, walked to her bedside, and gently took a USB drive from under her pillow, handing it to Hu Xike.

Hu Xike could hardly believe her ears. She froze for a moment, then jumped up as if she'd won the lottery. "Ah Li, you're so great! I love you to death!" She hugged Luo Li tightly and kissed her on the cheek. Then, holding the USB drive, she bounced around the dormitory like a child who had received a priceless treasure. "I knew Ah Li was the best! My aunt will be so happy. I'm going to call her right now." With that, she eagerly pulled out her phone and ran to the side to make the call.

Luo Li smiled helplessly at Hu Xike's excited expression. She sat back down, her brow furrowing slightly as she considered Brilliant Entertainment's various actions. The competition in the entertainment industry was truly fierce, like a battlefield without gunpowder. However, being able to help Huaxi Entertainment through music was a good thing, she thought. She sighed softly, picked up a book, and prepared to review her lessons. The sunlight continued to stream quietly into the dormitory, seemingly witnessing this little interlude, while Hu Xike's excited voice continued to echo from within…
