Huayu: Starting with living with a girl from Taiwan

Chapter 60 Oh, heavens, how cruel you are to me!

On the top of the table.

The last special guest made his appearance.

A well-tailored champagne-colored off-shoulder dress accentuates the perfect mature curves of a 34-year-old woman, exuding elegance with an understated sexiness.

Her long, black hair was slightly curled and draped over her shoulders.

With a gentle and intellectual smile on her face, her eyes sparkled with both the liveliness of her youth and the composed charm of a wife and mother.

Alyssa Chia and Lin Mo met once at Lan Hsin-mei's gym.

However, what impressed him the most was Wu Zetian in "The Empress of China".

Especially her nun outfit.

Let's welcome Jingwen again!

Tao Zi led the applause.

Alyssa Chia gracefully nodded to the audience and contestants. When her gaze swept over them, it seemed to linger on Lin Mo for half a second longer, with a hint of curiosity and goodwill in her eyes, before she smiled and looked away.

As Tao Zi loudly announced the start of the competition, the tense atmosphere returned.

The first three challengers took the stage in turn.

They challenged Li Xuanrong, Pan Yuwen, and Lin Youjia respectively.

Unfortunately, all attempts ended in failure.

"Alright, next, let's welcome the fourth challenger—"

Tao Zi raised her voice, "And it's Zeng Peici, who successfully challenged the previous contestants and brought us 'A Little Happiness'!"

Under the spotlight, Zeng Peici once again walked from the aisle to the center of the stage.

The audience immediately erupted in enthusiastic applause and cheers, clearly indicating that "A Little Happiness" and her sweet image had garnered her a considerable following.

However, there were also some exclamations and surprised sounds.

Zeng Peici changed into a more rock-and-roll outfit today, a departure from her previous sweet look, and she now exuded a cool vibe.

"Pei Ci, welcome back!"

Tao Zi asked with a smile,

"You successfully challenged the previous contestant. This time, which member of the Super Idol group will you choose to challenge?"

Zeng Peici picked up the microphone, his gaze calmly sweeping across the contestants' seats, finally landing precisely on a person whose face instantly turned deathly pale.

"I challenge Liu Mingfeng."

Liu Mingfeng: "..."

He felt as if his heart had been thrown into the Arctic Ocean, chilled to the bone.

I have a million "fuck you"s in my head, but I don't know if I should say them. Why is it me again?!

What have I ever done to you?!

You inexplicably picked me last time, and you're back this time?!

"Oh?"

Tao Zi also showed interest and pressed for more information.

"Pei Ci, I have a question. You chose to challenge Liu Mingfeng in both matches in a row. Is there a special reason for that? Could you share it with everyone?"

Zeng Peici's face was expressionless, and his tone was indifferent, but his words carried an undeniable force:

"Because I felt that he was very disrespectful to his opponents on stage."

A cool girl with a cool voice, clearly transmitted throughout the venue through the microphone.

Liu Mingfeng's face flushed red instantly, then quickly turned pale.

He suddenly remembered Zeng Peici's pre-battle declaration from the last battle, and even a fool would understand what it meant.

He glanced at the man sitting in the players' box.

This woman is definitely a fan of Lin Mo!

And they're the kind with super strong combat power!

He had provoked Lin Mo last time, and now Lin Mo's fans were holding a grudge and came here specifically to "take revenge"!

Thinking of this, Liu Mingfeng felt a deep sense of desolation and sorrow welled up within him.

Oh, heavens, how cruel you are to me!

I can't even beat Lin Mo's fans now?!

Where did this guy get such amazing fans who can even go on TV and challenge other contestants?!

"Oh... I see."

Tao Zi suppressed a laugh, trying her best to remain professional.

"Okay, so Pei Ci, will you be performing another original song like 'A Little Happiness' for this show?"

Zeng Peici's expression showed a slight hesitation, and he shook his head:

"It's not an original song, but... it's a new song."

"Oh? Then can you tell us the creator and title of this song this time?" Tao Zi pressed.

Zeng Peici nodded and answered clearly:

"The song is called 'Enough Love,' written by Dong Cheng Wei, and it's also the theme song for the TV series 'The Ultimate Family,' which just premiered yesterday."

"The Ultimate Family?" Tao Zi cooperated by showing a surprised expression.

The audience erupted in a commotion and discussion.

The promotion for "The Ultimate Family" has been overwhelming in Taiwan these days, with roadshows, press releases, and interviews with the main actors taking place one after another.

Given the huge success of its predecessor, "KO One," many young viewers are already familiar with this TV series.

Is this a collaboration?

Suddenly, many viewers who initially just thought she sang well began to look at her with more curiosity and inquiry.

Who exactly is this girl?

Actually, this was Lin Mo's suggestion.

He mentioned it to Angie Chai, and when Comic Productions contacted "Ultimate Crew," the other party was naturally happy to agree.

"The Ultimate Family" has just started airing and needs its popularity.

Being able to perform on the hottest talent show stage in Taiwan right now, "Super Star Avenue," is an opportunity that everyone dreams of.

However, to uninformed viewers and some contestants, Zeng Peici's image became even more mysterious.

Being able to sing theme songs for idol dramas that become popular even before they air is a resource that ordinary newcomers can't get.

Resource-rich!

"Alright, let's hand the stage over to Pei Ci and have her perform 'Enough Love'!"

Tao Zi announced loudly.

As she finished speaking, the lights gradually dimmed.

The prelude to the music begins.

The first thing you hear is a low, slightly psychedelic string melody, creating an atmosphere of solitary pursuit.

Zeng Peici gripped the microphone tightly, closed her eyes, and softly sang:

I traveled between Venus, Jupiter, and Mercury.

Mars-Saturn pursuit

Time ticks away as I chase after you.

The sound of an answer...

The voice was soft, with a dreamlike murmur, as if telling a story of a lonely vigil that transcends different cosmic dimensions.

After two consecutive low, chanting passages, the string music suddenly intensifies, like a long-accumulated tide about to burst through a dam—

"Buzz—!"

The exhilarating electric guitar riff and bass accents suddenly and forcefully burst in!

The entire arrangement style instantly transformed from gentle and somber to a rock melody that was extremely explosive and powerful!

The strong rhythm instantly grabbed everyone's attention!

Standing in the preparation area, Liu Mingfeng listened to the stirring prelude and the change in arrangement. His heart skipped a beat, and his face turned even paler.

He is also an original rock singer-songwriter and has a basic understanding of music.

The arrangement of this melody, the progression of emotions, the choice of the climax... masterful!

This is definitely the work of a master!

He himself couldn't write with that kind of depth and impact.

On stage, Zeng Peici seemed to be awakened by the music.

She opened her eyes and sang the first verse:

"[Your fingertips still bear the marks of my love]"

I didn't think through the nail polish I applied.

You seem to have mentioned you and me.

Will there be a future?

The world keeps changing

The Earth keeps rotating...
