Chapter 504: Where am I singing I’m running away.
Chapter 504
Ye Feimei: "My girl is just awesome!"
Xin Zi: "What do you mean your girl? That's my girl!"
Ye Feimei: "Oh my, you're her mother yet you don't care at all about your daughter's development in the entertainment industry? Tsk tsk tsk! If I hadn't reminded you, you wouldn't even know today is the crucial finals!"
Xin Zi: "That's because I have confidence in my daughter! And ours is a democratic family, the child can do whatever she wants, her parents won't be watching over and controlling her. What you're doing now is like a stalker! Creepy!"
Ye Feimei: "Yes, confident, then you miss our Nan XiangWan's pivotal step towards ascension, when she comes to my place afterwards, I'll be sure to praise her well."
Xin Zi: "Oh just shut up!"
Ye Feimei: "Humph! My son is performing a duet with my girl today, later when they hold hands on stage, make eye contact, I'll be smiling from ear to ear!"
Xin Zi: "You old hag, I'm flying over right now to kill you!"
Ye Feimei: "You coming is useless, by the time you get here, my son would already have Nan XiangWan in his embrace! Haha hahaha!"
The two women bickered while watching, and also ordered some takeout.
-------------
After Nan XiangWan finished her first song, she had to hurry and get ready for the next duet performance.
The two songs were back-to-back with only a few minutes in between, and the audience finally came back to their senses after her previous performance.
The live audience naturally praised her crazily, the onsite performance was simply killer!
Those watching the livestream were even more frenzied, sparing no effort with their fingers and keyboards.
Bullet screen comments:
- So sad! So passionate!
- Too strong empathy, this woman's singing was like it had images!
- The feelings for family and country in the song Sword Graveyard are so powerful, listening makes me want to time travel back to ancient times and go to war!
- This woman sings so cool!
- Nan XiangWan please give us a concert!
- After listening to the whole song, I felt deeply moved, giving rise to endless passion and making me feel like I have to do something! So I flipped over in my bed!
...
Backstage, Nan XiangWan quickly took off the shell armor and changed into a little suit jacket and shoes handed to her by Xiao Dong.
Casually matched, her style changed instantly from classical Chinese to delicate and cute.
When she came bouncing back, the stage for the duet had already been set up, one black and one white custom mics standing steadily on the mic stands.
The accompaniment for RainCat started playing.
The song for the final duet was from Girl's Destiny's first album, also written and composed by Nan XiangWan. She specially rearranged it for today’s performance.
Since both of them had absolute pitch, Nan XiangWan daringly added lots of hybrid elements in her rearrangement, making the high notes higher and the low notes lower.
Nan XiangWan placed one hand on the mic stand, eyes shining brightly as she looked ahead and stretched out her other hand.
The result—
Squeak!
The sweetness on her face halted like an emergency brake, because she saw the seat in the front row middle, was empty!
Where was Gu Beihuai?
Where was her partner?
According to the original plan, while singing she would stretch out her hand, Gu Beihuai would smile and take her hand to get on stage, then they would sing together.
But the result was, he disappeared!
Nan XiangWan panicked on the spot, what to do with her hand already stretched out?
No time to think about why Gu Beihuai vanished, she could only brazenly continue singing.
Jie Chou sitting in the middle seat was also stunned. He looked at the hand stretched towards him in shock and delight, and pointed at himself.
Jie Chou: “Me?”
Whatever!
Jie Chou grabbed Nan XiangWan’s hand and hopped on stage.
The mic stands were already prepared, and the two seamlessly started their duet.
What no one expected was, as soon as Jie Chou opened his mouth, the entire audience burst out laughing.
Nan XiangWan was dumbfounded and gobsmacked staring at him.
What were the odds of someone being so tone deaf?
That voice, it sounded freakish enough to drive people crazy!
Not to mention being off key, every word from Jie Chou was off tune, he had achieved what ordinary people could not—being off tune in every sentence.
So helplessly, Nan XiangWan could only forcibly sing both parts on stage!
Sometimes high notes, sometimes low notes, sometimes the male part, sometimes female, she almost sang herself into multiple personalities.
The livestream audience had no more thoughts about whatever Jie Chou was singing. The fans exploded!
Bullet screen comments:
- WTF! I just saw King Gu in the audience earlier, he had full makeup on already, but now he’s gone? What’s the meaning of this?
- Too much! King Gu can just stand people up?
- I’m a little angry! No, not a little! I’m furious! Such an important stage, the final round of the finals, and he disappears on me and Queen Nan?
- If you’re not going to sing then don’t agree to it in the first place! So infuriating!
- Tone deaf bro actually went up as the replacement, but he really is impressively tone deaf...
- Can my Queen still win first place singing like this?
- Did the Queen and King have a fight or?
- Sorry sorry! We King Gu fans apologize on his behalf to the fans, brother must have had something urgent that he had to leave, please trust our brother’s professionalism, he has never ever messed up like this before, something must have happened.
- I guarantee King Gu is diligent, fans please don’t scold him yet, give our brother another chance.
- Uh, passerby here laughing my ass off, first time seeing King Gu’s fans being so subservient!
...
Although there were constant problems onsite, the backstage data was surprisingly good. Many passersby were laughing while voting, mistakenly thinking Nan XiangWan had arranged the hilarious scene on purpose to relieve the atmosphere after they finished listening to Sword Graveyard.
----------------
At this time in the video call between Ye Feimei and Xin Zi, both mothers were dumbfounded.
Ye Feimei rubbed her eyes multiple times to confirm the one on stage singing wasn’t her son, but that brat Jie Chou instead.
What on earth was he singing!
Still black-faced from anger, Xin Zi also reacted.
She immediately exploded into curses: “Ye Feimei! Your son stood up my daughter?”
Ye Feimei was extremely nervous: “No, that’s not it...”
Xin Zi didn’t give her a chance to explain, continuing to curse: “What do you mean that’s not it? Are you blind? Isn’t that little brat Jie Chou on stage now? Where’s your son? Your son ran away! Nice going Ye Feimei, I knew your whole family were no good, trying to deceive my daughter’s feelings? No way!”
After that she slammed the end call button for the video chat, even pulling out the blacklist to block the other party.
Ye Feimei was cursed silly. After she reacted, she was furious. She immediately called Gu Beihuai.
She was going to properly ask what this kid was up to at such a crucial moment!
