Chapter 220 Luring the wolf into the house
Chapter 220 Luring the wolf into the house
"No, how could he be so mean!"
Qi Luo'an was furious when she heard that Qi Yuan was planning to steal Ge's song. They were about to finish practicing their song when this guy suddenly jumped out and interfered.
This isn't just bad, it's downright heinous...
If the other person hadn't been unaware that she was supposed to be a guest performer, Qi Luo'an would have suspected that her brother was deliberately targeting her and didn't want her to have her way.
She's been working on this for so long, she'll be upset if she doesn't get the song. How can she let the duck that's already in her mouth fly away?
"The key point is that 'Peach Blossom Promise' is not suitable for male singers either."
On the other end of the phone, Shen Yutong spoke calmly. To be honest, she had become somewhat desensitized. She still liked the song, but she could accept not getting it.
She had a premonition after Zhou Mumu failed to choose a song. Although Yu Wei was a carefree person, she was still quite principled. At least in the competition, no one would be an exception.
Moreover, he never made any promises to himself; it was An'an who told him to change the songs. Looking at it this way, Qi Luo'an is actually the worse one...
Is this a false imperial edict?
Moreover, Shen Yutong had a vague feeling that there might be a twist in the story.
As she said, "Peach Blossom Promise" is not very suitable for male voices, and Qi Yuan's choice is by no means perfect.
"Yes, it's not suitable."
The song "Peach Blossom Promise" is a very female-voiced work in terms of both vocal range and imagery, and even the lyrics are from the female protagonist's perspective.
Qi Yuan chose this song primarily to revive her career, rather than out of genuine love for the song itself, making it a less than ideal choice.
But since the contestants wanted to choose, he, as the organizer of the competition, couldn't just lock the songs and prevent them from selecting them...
"I beg you to give him a stronger opponent."
Since that's the case, Qi Luoan can only hope that his brother loses. It's simple, a losing game will solve the problem.
"It can't be turned over."
Qi Yuan's singing skills are the result of real practice, and with Zhang Lingye as her backup singer, her abilities are definitely greater than those of the AI.
The reason why AI was so popular in the early stages was mainly because it was novel to everyone. But after a while, netizens got tired of it and found human voices more comfortable to listen to.
"You'll know when the new chapter is released."
Yu Wei planned to finish posting the competition chapters in one go before going to eat; he didn't have the habit of writing at other people's houses.
At noon, the new chapter of the novel was updated on time. Qi Luoan and Shen Yutong were undoubtedly the people most concerned about the outcome of the match at this moment, and they had to keep an eye on it.
First up was "Paper Short, Love Long" sung by an AI native. It was full of tension and had a strong rhythm, so the quality wasn't low.
This song wasn't originally a viral hit, but its popularity and widespread appeal are inseparable from the spread of short videos, and it's of much higher quality than typical viral songs.
The song selection was intense, but the AI couldn't capture the tension and nuances of the song, which is a pity.
This song is well-produced compared to the average internet celebrity song, and it's bound to become a popular track in music libraries. It remains to be seen whether anyone will choose it in the future.
"I'd like to see how he wins."
Qi Luoan clicked on his brother's competition video, and was stunned for a long time when he heard the familiar intro. Wasn't this "Under the Flying Clouds"?
When Yu Wei's competition first started, most of the contestants chose his songs, partly to show their goodwill and partly to attract votes from Yu Wei's readers.
All the other songs had contestants who covered them, but this one was particularly difficult because the notes were too high. It was not only difficult but also doubly difficult, and one person couldn't sing it alone.
Qi Luoan really didn't expect that her brother would actually find someone to sing this with...
What's going on? They not only stole their song, but they also covered her duet with Yu Weiwei. Their intentions are despicable!
The key point is that they both sang really well. One's gentle voice outlined the vastness and tranquility of the sky, while the other's mellow voice was like sunlight piercing through the clouds.
After listening to Qi Luoan, I'm starting to ship them a bit...
Qi Yuan dared to challenge this song because he had something to rely on. He and Zhang Lingye practiced for a long time to achieve the desired effect; otherwise, he wouldn't have entered the competition so late.
"Oh no, he's really going to win."
Even if Qi Luoan didn't want to see this happen, he had to admit that their cover was good, and they even made corresponding male vocal adaptations, showing a lot of sincerity.
As expected, Qi Yuan's votes were ahead of the AI natives from the beginning, and Yu Wei's readers naturally preferred Yu Wei's songs.
They sang "Under the Flying Clouds," a song that other contestants hadn't dared to sing, so it was no surprise that they received positive reviews.
"Aren't they mortal enemies? They're actually singing a duet together?"
"It's just a disagreement among fans, but they have a good relationship."
"Rise, my dead tearful body!"
The idea of rivals singing together is quite sensational, and it quickly attracted a lot of attention from netizens. In contrast, this time the viral song didn't make much of a splash.
One reason is that the AI couldn't bring out the song's unique features. Another reason is that everyone has been so full of Yu Wei's two new songs at the concert recently that they can't eat anything else in a short time.
It seems my brother is really going to steal the show this time. Qi Luoan was so angry that he gritted his teeth but there was nothing he could do. Since things had come to this, he decided to treat everyone to a meal first.
Yu Wei's fame was now on a completely different level, so he couldn't possibly flaunt it at this time. He called a van and had Qi Luoan get in to lead the way.
"what is this?"
As soon as Qi Luoan got into the car, he saw two boxes of milk on the back seat, which looked out of place no matter how he looked at it.
"I can't come to your house for dinner empty-handed."
Yu Wei had originally planned to give a gift, but then she thought that she was just having a meal with a friend, and it would be strange if the gift was too expensive.
If you bring a big gift, people who don't know better might think you've already started the marriage proposal process. But if you're just having a meal on the way, don't overthink it. Keep it simple.
"Talented individuals".
Qi Luo'an hadn't expected Yu Wei to do this; he just brought two boxes of milk. It was a bit abstract, yet perfectly reasonable. Knowing her parents as she did, she knew they definitely wouldn't accept anything expensive, so this down-to-earth approach was just right.
Although she had been looking forward to this day for a long time, Qi Luoan suddenly felt a little nervous when the time actually came. She was still in school and hadn't reached the point of meeting her parents yet, but it didn't seem to make much of a difference.
This meeting was much more than just an ordinary dinner for her.
She sat upright in her chair, her fingertips unconsciously curling and then relaxing as she subconsciously straightened the hem of her dress, which had no visible wrinkles.
What will Yu Wei's parents ask her?
If he suddenly starts talking nonsense with a straight face, will his parents understand?
What would Xiao Chen, who is quite picky about character, think of him?
She hoped to see approval and satisfaction in her parents' eyes, and she also hoped that Yu Wei could feel the warmth she had been nurtured in since childhood from the home filled with the warmth of everyday life...
This feeling was quite complicated, so much so that Qi Luoan sometimes felt the car was going too fast, and other times felt it was taking too long.
"Why are not you talking?"
Qi Luoan couldn't help but look at Yu Wei, who was silent in the passenger seat. The two of them usually talked a lot when they were together, but today was the quietest they had ever been.
"I'm reflecting on the ninth episode, wondering if I did anything outrageous."
The ninth episode of "Music Blind Box" will premiere tonight. Given this family's habits, they'll probably watch it; he's afraid of being publicly shamed.
Previously, the next episode would be recorded the day after the show aired, but this time it was different; the production team had something big planned.
When he came to Beijing before, Cheng Xu told him that the final two episodes of the show should be done differently, and filming would be postponed.
Without Yu Wei and Meng Han, the two key figures, the show won't turn out well if it's forced to be filmed. It's better to wait until they return.
The production team started preparing for the last two episodes a long time ago, and it's said they will be broadcast live, but Yu Wei doesn't know the specifics.
"The ninth issue... I definitely need to take a good look at that."
Qi Luoan had a deep impression of this; wasn't the ninth episode the one with Sakura Tani Rio? It's finally going to air.
His family actually quite enjoys watching Yu Wei's shows, and now, to make matters worse, he's here in person.
This is different from the virtual phone call last time. This time, Yu Wei is actually there. Last time, his parents didn't even know he was sitting next to them.
As the car drove into the familiar neighborhood, Qi Luoan opened the car door and took a deep breath; this moment had finally arrived.
"I thought you lived in a luxury neighborhood."
Yu Wei looked around and didn't see the mansions and buildings he had imagined. The brick-red buildings looked very warm in the setting sun.
The location and environment are both good, but subconsciously, he feels that these important people all live in large villas...
"You've been watching too many idol dramas."
When it comes to houses, as long as you're comfortable, that's all that matters. At least their family doesn't do that kind of thing; their home is filled with the warmth and everyday life of ordinary people, which is quite nice, isn't it?
Qi Luoan and her family lived on the fifth floor. The elevator ran smoothly, and Yu Wei followed obediently behind, carrying two boxes of milk, watching her skillfully open the door.
He looked closely and realized there was something extraordinary inside.
The neighborhood may not be very eye-catching, but the house is really spacious, simply and warmly decorated, and the furniture is all high-end.
"Teacher Yu is here, it's an honor to have you here."
He was changing his shoes when Chen Jinyi greeted him, and he was completely taken aback. That's what the staff at the concert called him, Aunt Chen called him, clearly teasing him.
"Mom, you're doing it again."
Before Yu Wei could speak, Qi Luo'an retorted, saying that her mother was good in every way, except that she was sharp-tongued, and she took after her mother in that respect.
Although Chen Jinyi, who was cooking, didn't say anything, she felt a mix of emotions.
Even a joke gets her defended? This girl is no good...
"Hello uncle, hello auntie."
Yu Wei immediately spotted Qi Yunming lounging on the sofa, scrolling through his phone. Old Qi was still as listless and melancholic as ever, just like before.
Qi Yunming nodded in response, and he seemed to understand a little better how Chen Ping felt when he looked at him back then.
After all, I watched him grow up, and it's a little upsetting that he was lured away by Xiao Deng in just a few words.
It's all that brat Qi Yuan's fault! Why did he have to recommend his friend like that? He let a wolf into the house!
"You brought things with you?"
His shout successfully made Chen Jinyi frown slightly. Was this young man so impatient? Their An'an was still in school; she was in a hurry…
Oh, it's just milk. Oh, that's alright then.
Chen Jinyi turned around and breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Yu Wei would come to her door and demand her back. It seems that this kid is more sensible than she thought.
They find it difficult to accept large gifts, but if someone brings two boxes of milk, it would seem petty of them not to accept them.
Qi Yunming casually took the beer and put it aside. He should have asked him to bring some beer on his way... Since he was already here, it would be a shame not to have a couple of drinks.
He didn't intend to get Yu Wei drunk; he just felt more comfortable talking about serious matters while drinking.
Yu Wei initially thought that asking for actors for free was just a joke, but when he tentatively contacted a few of them, they were actually willing to act for zero pay.
If he could really assemble the luxurious lineup that Yu Wei mentioned, he might actually be able to turn his life around.
Thinking of this made Qi Yunming feel particularly happy, and he looked at Yu Wei with more appreciation.
What do you mean by "inviting a wolf into the house"? This is called "you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub"...
