Rebirth after the college entrance examination

Chapter 248 Su Yi: Who cares about cause and effect!

Jin Xiaoxiao was nervously introducing herself, and her a cappella performance of "Rewind" was about to begin. The director hurriedly communicated with the judges on stage through his earpiece.

"This one has to be sent in! Even if he's mute, he has to pass the preliminary round!"

The judges were exasperated; it was time to test their acting skills again. Although they were helpless, they were used to it.

Fairness is relative everywhere.

Thankfully, I didn't sing off-key, but I wasn't familiar with the lyrics and was very nervous. I didn't dare open my eyes the whole time, which meant I hadn't prepared much.

Sure enough, with powerful connections guaranteeing his advancement, he doesn't even need to pretend anymore.

But to be honest, she has a fresh appearance and a sweet voice, so her advancement is well-deserved. There's no need for mindless praise.

Jin Xiaoxiao was extremely puzzled when she saw that her vote had been unanimously approved…

There were so many contestants who sang better than me who were eliminated just now.

He walked off the stage in a daze, then ran back to return the microphone, blushing as he ran off again.

Jin Xiaoxiao was hugged by Zhang Duoduo, who was jumping and bouncing.

"That's great! That's awesome!"

"What's so good about it..."

Jin Xiaoxiao pouted: "I only know this one song, so I'd better not come back for the next round..."

"Don't worry, there are still twelve days until the preliminary round. I'll practice with you."

Zhang Duoduo also went on stage, and it was obvious that she was not intimidated at all.

She sang A-Sun's signature song, "Loneliness is Singing".

Zhang Duoduo's voice is ruined, and she can no longer sing bel canto, but she can perfectly handle this type of song with a smoky voice.

The scene with tens of thousands of people was exceptionally stunning.

Countless people proclaimed that she was destined to be the champion of this region.

Looking at the excitement of the crowd below the stage and hearing their deafening cheers, Zhang Duoduo revealed a bright smile, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Thank you, I passed."
-
Thank you, I've passed.

Tang Wan glanced at Xia An's phone screen and sneered.

"Which supernova is it this time?"

"..."

Xia An was also baffled. Why should Zhang Duoduo thank him for advancing? He didn't help her with any back channels.

"Quickly, Miss Su is on stage, don't get distracted."

Xia An tried to distract Tang Xiaowan with jokes and banter.

It was almost noon, and the sun was blazing, but a very large cloud happened to drift by.

The sun was gradually blocked.

Su Yi, trailing her long dress, walked step by step onto the half-lit, half-dark stage.

When Fang appeared, the scene fell silent.

Putting everything else aside, just in terms of appearance alone, Su Yi has just as many admirers as Tang Wan at this school.

Unlike Tang Wan's sweet and girly style, Su Yi's mature and sophisticated face appeals to both men and women, and she has a considerable number of female fans who follow her around.

Moreover, in 2007, when traditional culture was still being dominated by Korean and Japanese trends, such ancient beauties were rarely seen outside of television, so how could the vibrant college students stand it?
Even Xia An, seeing Su Yi standing there with light on the left and darkness on the right, exuding an ethereal aura with every smile and frown, slowed his breathing by half a beat.

Tang Wan and Le Ning looked at him from the left and right, and simultaneously scoffed.

Xia An came to his senses and coughed twice.

"Don't misunderstand, I just think Aunt Zhou can take advantage of this competition to vigorously promote her clothing business. You know, after the qualifying rounds, I'm going to promote Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) a lot."

Le Ning: "Oh?"

Tang Wan: "Heh."

Before Su Yi could even introduce herself on stage, the audience erupted in a deafening roar of "Su Yi, Su Yi, I love you the most!"

Su Yi, who blushed deeply, is the most popular contestant so far.

Before today, and before the backstage of the gossip channel intentionally reduced Le Ning's exposure, Su Yi and Tang Wan were undoubtedly the most unattainable beauties among all the boys in the school, with their popularity evenly split.

Jay Chou and Charlene Choi both glanced at Xia An.

First, I saw Le Ning and Tang Wan holding their faces up, craning their necks and shouting, "Go, Su Su!"

Then I saw Xia An's head drooping to her chest, her hands weakly patting her head a few times.

The two big shots exchanged a glance and said, "OK, received."

"Hello judges and fellow students, my name is Su Yi, and I am a doctoral student in the Department of Environmental Art Design at Binhai University..."

Jay Chou picked up the microphone: "Oh my, I guess this contestant used to sing and dance... Eh? Doctor?"

The audience burst into laughter.

Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) asked a couple more questions, essentially giving Su Yi more screen time.

Finally, Su Yi said, "Today, I will perform a song called 'Falling'."

The judges stared at each other in disbelief. Su Yi explained, "This song is an original. Please allow me to sing it first before I explain, okay?"

Ah Sa: "Okay, I'll listen to you from now on."

The sunlight disappeared, then reappeared. Under the sunlight, Su Yi wore the finest Yunxiu embroidery from Zhou Ting Ancient Costume Shop in the small theater. The red gauze shimmered, her skin was as white as snow, and she looked like a piece of porcelain encased in flames.

The intro has started.

Xia An was utterly speechless. There was even an accompaniment? Le Ning must have had the band record it for her.

Damn, what exactly is this group of girls up to?

Su Yi started singing.

...

Who pulled a ray of light from the night?
Disturbing the already silent heart

...

Oh? Not bad.

Xia An and the judges raised their eyebrows together.

I never expected Su Yi to be able to handle this kind of song.

Her voice strikes a perfect balance between sweetness and deep, resonant tones, with a subtle touch of operatic style.

To be honest, Xia An only marked one sentence on the simplified musical score: Climax Opera.

Unexpectedly, Su Yi actually managed to recreate about 80% of the original singer's style from his memory.

...

The bright moon hangs high, a gentle breeze blows, and stars pierce through.

Listen to the lament, the beauty
…(Drumbeats begin)
Having left the mortal world behind, I have become a fading memory.
Grass grows and orioles fly, longevity fades.
...

Holy crap? The drumbeats are perfect!

Xia An glanced at Le Ning while waiting for the chorus.

The little girl tilted her head back, tacitly acknowledging that it was her own handiwork.

Goodness, Xia An is considering whether or not to have Xiaowan Entertainment sign her band.

On stage, Su Yi sang and danced at the same time.

Her water sleeves fluttered, and her steps were like walking through flowers.

With each rotation and movement, she couldn't help but look at Xia An.

The scorching sunlight made it impossible for her to see the audience.

Bright and dazzling, it was as if a dream had been shrouded in light.

That night, she had a dream in her dormitory.

I dreamt that I didn't come to Binhai for further studies, but instead chose to study abroad for graduate school.

In the United States, she shared an apartment with her college rival and reconnected with that rather outstanding guy.

The woman surnamed Bian came to see her roommate.

Even in her dreams, she didn't see the final outcome; there was still no outcome.

When she woke up, she sat in her dormitory in the early morning, quietly waiting for dawn.

She was very fortunate to have come here.

She has rivals in love again, many rivals, but this time the feeling is no longer one of loneliness and isolation. The male protagonist is an interesting and mature young man, a responsible little man.

She's living with her love rival again, but she's not afraid. This time, her rival is a gentle and kind woman with a broad mind.

Even if I have to become a mere accessory, at least I won't end up being discarded.

...

Love is in twos and threes, but longing is always frequent.

drifting with the years
...

The chorus is here!

The judges and Xia An held their breath, waiting for the rhythm and singing style.

...

Blossom
Sunrise and sunset
True feelings are like smoke and waves

People only know loneliness

Who cares about cause and effect?

...

Su Yi has a background in Huangmei Opera, and Le Ning has a sufficient understanding of music theory.

This song has been completely restored.

The moment Su Yi began singing in the opera style, the audience erupted in cheers.

Su Yi's long legs, draped in a gauze skirt, spread out like blooming peach petals.

The flowers are blooming, will you pick them?

Do you not care about cause and effect?
