Chapter 17 No. 4, Jiang Bai!
Chapter 17 No. 4, Jiang Bai!
Lin Feng, who was ignored by the goddess, was not disappointed at all, but even more excited.
So aloof!
That's unique!
I love this indifferent attitude!
Lin Feng had even already conceived his lines for striking up a conversation and which kindergarten his child would attend in the future.
Just then.
The host on stage continued to move forward with the proceedings.
"Eleventh..."
"The twelfth..."
Time flies.
Soon, the thirteenth performer came on stage.
He was a chubby boy singing a high-pitched folk song. He started too high and his voice cracked halfway through, and his face turned a deep liver color.
A burst of good-natured laughter erupted from the audience.
The host, holding the microphone, glanced at the list.
"Next, number fourteen."
"Jiang Bai, a freshman in the Performing Arts Department, Class of 26."
"Please proceed backstage to prepare."
Hearing my own name called.
Jiang Bai took a deep breath and stood up from his seat.
As he stood up, his long white dress spread out like mercury.
Jiang Bai straightened her skirt and walked gracefully towards the backstage side door.
Lin Feng, who had been keeping a close eye on the goddess's movements, was completely stunned when he saw this scene.
"Jiang Bai?"
"Her name is Jiang Bai?"
"A good name! Simple and pure, just like her!"
But then he realized what was happening.
"Wait...she's number fourteen?"
"So she's in the singing group too?"
Lin Feng suddenly pulled out his phone and opened the QQ group list.
My fingers trembled as I scrolled to the fourteenth line.
Fourteenth place: Jiang Bai.
Performance piece: "Love You".
boom!
Lin Feng felt as if a firework had exploded in his mind.
"Love you"!
She also sang "Love You"!
What is this?
This is fate!
This is a match made in heaven!
"Was she doing it on purpose?"
"Did she know I was going to sing this song, so she deliberately chose the same one?"
"Could it be... that she actually noticed me a long time ago?"
"Trying to get my attention this way?"
Lin Feng's ability to fill in the blanks reached its peak at this moment.
His face flushed instantly, his breathing became rapid, and his hands holding the guitar trembled slightly.
"That must be it!"
"This is the prelude to the legendary 'love song duet'!"
"She's giving me a hint!"
"Hehe...hehehe..."
Lin Feng stood there, watching Jiang Bai's figure disappear into the backstage entrance, and let out a chilling, silly laugh.
If Jiang Bai knew what he was thinking, he would probably shove the guitar up his nose on the spot.
……
Backstage of the auditorium.
It's even more chaotic here than at the front desk.
Various props were piled up haphazardly, and students were everywhere touching up their makeup, practicing their voices, or pacing nervously.
As soon as Jiang Bai entered, the previously noisy backstage area fell silent for a moment.
The sheer presence of their good looks made everyone instinctively hold their breath.
"Who is this?"
"She seems to be the goddess from that forum?"
"She's participating in the selection process too?"
Whispers arose.
Jiang Bai didn't look to the side and walked straight to the sound control console.
The person in charge of playing the accompaniment was a boy wearing thick glasses, who was engrossed in eating instant noodles.
"Hello teacher, I am number fourteen, Jiang Bai."
"Let's confirm the accompaniment."
Jiang Bai gently tapped the table.
The voice-controlled guy looked up, with half a noodle still in his mouth.
When he saw the face in front of him.
"Slurp—"
The noodles were sucked directly into his nostrils.
"Cough cough cough cough!"
The young man coughed violently, his face turning red, and frantically grabbed a tissue to wipe his mouth.
"Um... cough cough... hello!"
"Jiang...Jiang Bai, right?"
He frantically searched for files on the computer.
"Found it, 'Love You'...the original version?"
The voice control guy paused for a moment, then looked at Jiang Bai with some confusion.
"Excuse me, are you sure this is the file?"
"There was someone named Lin Feng who just finished singing 'Love You,' and yours is listed as an original song..."
Jiang Bai smiled slightly.
The [Gender Indistinguishable] skill activates instantly.
Switch your voice to a sweet and mature female voice.
"Yes, this is it~"
"Could you please listen to the intro for me, about five seconds is fine?"
That sound...
Crispy!
hemp!
The guy who controlled the sound felt like his bones had lightened by two ounces, and his heart felt like it had been gently scratched by a kitten's paw.
"Okay...okay! No problem!"
He pressed the play button with trembling hands.
A light and cheerful intro with obvious synthesizer effects came from the speakers.
"Ho Baby~"
It's just the beginning.
The sweet scent that wafted over was completely different from the bitter and heart-wrenching version that Lin Feng had just sung.
The voice control guy's eyes lit up.
"This accompaniment...it's pretty good."
"Okay, no problem, confirmed."
"Thank you, teacher!"
Jiang Bai smiled sweetly and turned to wait in the waiting area.
The guy with the sound control was left watching her retreating figure, feeling as if the braised beef noodles in his hand had turned sweet.
"Ah~ It's so sweet~"
The guy with the sound control was slurping his instant noodles and sighing, completely oblivious to the strange looks he was getting from the people around him.
……
A few minutes later.
The folk song with its off-key notes on stage finally ended.
The chubby boy covered his face and ran off the stage.
The host walked onto the stage, glanced at the card in his hand, and raised an eyebrow slightly.
He also noticed that special note.
"Next, number fourteen, Jiang Bai."
"Here's the music..."
The host paused, then emphasized:
"An original song, 'Love You'."
These words were spoken.
The audience members who had been dozing off instantly perked up.
"Original?"
"Is it 'Love You' again? The same title as the song Lin Feng sang earlier?"
"Is this going to be a head-to-head competition?"
"Original my foot! It's probably just someone else's song with a few lyrics changed."
"But her name is Jiang Bai... isn't she the girl in the white dress?"
Amid the murmurs of the crowd.
The lights suddenly dimmed.
Then, a soft spotlight shone on the entrance on the side of the stage.
Everyone held their breath.
next second.
A foot wearing a white canvas shoe stepped out.
Followed by.
A figure finally stepped into the spotlight.
Her white dress was whiter than snow, and her black hair flowed like a waterfall.
There are no superfluous decorations, no exaggerated shapes.
She simply stood there quietly, her hands behind her back, her head slightly tilted, and gave the audience a sweet smile that could melt ice and snow.
Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Bai.
A clear, sweet, and slightly playful female voice resonated throughout the venue via the microphone.
boom!
The auditorium exploded!
Holy crap!!!
"It really is her!"
"This level of beauty... Am I dreaming?"
"That voice is so beautiful!"
"That face is absolutely stunning!"
"Mommy, I saw an angel!"
Backstage/Side view.
Lin Feng stared intently at Jiang Bai on the stage, trembling with excitement.
"I knew it!"
"I knew she did it for me!"
"Even the song title is the same, this is definitely a response of love!"
however.
next moment.
When the light, lively, and youthful prelude begins.
Lin Feng's smile froze on his face.
This……
This isn't my "Love You" song.
Why is this music so cheerful?
