Chapter 59: Ah ah ah ah ah Wife
The initial stage was the main content of the first episode. The auditorium was large and luxurious, with eighty-eight seats arranged in a regular triangle. The top seat was for first place, and so on.
[The stage is so special! Very good! The sponsor is so rich!]
[Let’s see who dares to sit in the top seat; I’m guessing the arrogant King Lu Yuqi!]
All trainees wore uniform clothing. Trainees from each company appeared one by one. Half of the contestants had appeared, but the top seat remained empty until the Yi Hua Entertainment trainees came out.
Yi Hua Entertainment had four trainees: besides Lu Yuqi and Lin Qingyan, there were Liu Yang and Li Chuan.
Liu Yang had a good relationship with An Nanyi and disliked Lu Yuqi and Lin Qingyan. Li Chuan was more introverted and usually didn’t talk much, but both had decent skills.
Yi Hua Entertainment’s trainees all had good skills.
[Ah, I’m most looking forward to the Yi Hua and Chenxing trainees!] Chenxing, like Yi Hua, was a well-known entertainment company; An Nanyi was an artist under Chenxing.
[The arrogant King and the clumsy beauty standing together is amazing hahaha!]
Lin Qingyan quietly asked Lu Yuqi, “Where should we sit?”
“Of course, the highest seat.” Lu Yuqi said, then put his hands in his pockets and walked straight up the stairs. His aura was unstoppable. Lin Qingyan could only follow him, walking up the stairs under everyone’s gaze.
Some contestants whispered:
“Aren’t they going to sit at the top?”
“Most likely.”
An Nanyi and his teammates sat in the middle. Watching the two walk up, he thought, Lu Yuqi was fine, but Lin Qingyan was really overestimating himself. With his skills, he dared to sit at the top?
Ultimately, Lu Yuqi stopped on the third row, didn’t go any higher, and pulled Lin Qingyan to sit in the fourth and fifth seats. Even after sitting down, Lin Qingyan was still bewildered.
“Didn’t you want to sit at the top?” With Lu Yuqi’s skills, he could definitely sit in that position. He remembered watching this show in his previous life; Lu Yuqi had sat in the top spot and never fallen from it.
Lu Yuqi said, “Only one person can sit at the top; these two seats are next to each other.”
Lin Qingyan: “…”
Lu Yuqi’s voice wasn’t small; others heard it and were stunned. They originally thought he was afraid his skills weren’t good enough to sit at the top, but it turned out…
[Hahahaha, amazing, the arrogant King is truly the arrogant King]
[Lin Qingyan: The fear of being dominated by Lu Yuqi]
[Gegege, Yan Yan was clearly arranged, hahaha, I ship this CP!]
[They really look good together ah ah ah ah! Arrogant and overbearing school bully X obedient and cold clumsy beauty school grass]
Meanwhile, the man watching the screen—Gu Fei, Mr. Gu—slightly frowned.
After all the trainees appeared, the mentor group came out. The mentors received enthusiastic applause and screams, and the barrage was filled with excited shouts.
[Ah ah ah ah ah An Jing!! My husband is so handsome!]
[Ah Cynthia!! My wife is so beautiful!]
[Song Qi Song Qi!! Song Song fly bravely, your wife will always be with you!!]
…
There were four mentors. In the middle stood producer An Jing. The other three were dance mentor Cynthia, a beautiful Eurasian woman and a well-known female idol member overseas.
Vocal mentor Song Qi, a popular idol singer in recent years. Finally, Rap mentor Ouyang Fan, a powerful singer-songwriter, very famous in the industry.
Each mentor gave a performance. An Jing’s performance in particular was exciting; his dance and song were passionate and explosive, full of charisma.
[Ah ah ah ah ah, husband is so handsome, I’m dead!!]
[An Jing’s skills are still as strong as ever. He can sing and dance, and he can also act and has won Best Actor. How can there be such a perfect man!]
[I wonder what his brother An Nanyi’s skills are like?]
[Nannan’s skills are also great, everyone can look forward to it!]
“Nannan, your brother is so amazing!”
“If only I had such an amazing brother, I’m so envious…”
Perhaps because of An Jing, many contestants wanted to befriend An Nanyi. He was used to being the center of attention, surrounded by praise and envious gazes. He simply smiled calmly.
“Actually, it’s okay. There’s nothing to envy. My brother is very busy and often not at home; we don’t spend much time together.”
His gaze inadvertently glanced towards Lin Qingyan, who was intently watching the performance on stage. His eyebrows and eyes were delicate and gentle; even just sitting quietly, he was impossible to ignore.
The smile on An Nanyi’s face slightly faded; he felt inexplicably flustered. If only Lin Qingyan would disappear. He shouldn’t be here. He, An Nanyi, is the young master of the An family, always.
“Teacher An danced so well; if only I could be like him.” Lin Qingyan looked at An Jing on stage and softly sighed. Lu Yuqi, looking at his face, said unexpectedly, “You do resemble him.”
Lin Qingyan, “Ah?”
Lu Yuqi, “Many people online say you look alike.”
Lin Qingyan smiled indifferently, “It’s just a coincidence.”
After the mentors’ performances, it was the trainees’ turn on the initial stage. They performed in order by company, and the mentors graded each performance, with A, B, C, and D levels.
The performances at the beginning were mediocre, with the highest being only B level, many C and D levels. Doubts appeared in the barrage.
[No way, no way, all the contestants are at this level?]
[It doesn’t feel like what I expected, a little disappointing]
[Are there no skilled contestants?]
[Sisters, don’t worry. Many skilled contestants haven’t appeared yet. It’s a common tactic in audition shows—building up the anticipation.]
[Yi Hua Entertainment is next. Lu Yuqi’s skills are definitely top-notch; Liu Yang and Li Chuan are also good. As for Lin Qingyan, I haven’t seen him before, everyone can look forward to it!!]
“Next up are the Yi Hua Entertainment trainees. Their song is Trap.”
The prelude was a piano piece.
A black grand piano stood on stage. Lin Qingyan, wearing a stylish black suit, sat in front of it. The spotlight shone on him, his clean eyebrows and eyes soft and delicate.
A close-up shot showed the young man lowering his eyes, his long and thick eyelashes casting a shadow under his eyes. His hands were on the black and white keys, his slender and well-proportioned fingers dancing nimbly, the crisp and pleasant piano sound echoing on the stage.
The young man at the piano was like a noble but understated prince, all eyes on him.
[Ah ah ah ah ah, I’m dead!!!]
[Ah ah ah, this hit my heart!]
[Whoa, this little brother is handsome, and he plays the piano so well! He’s exactly like my dream lover ah ah ah ah, I love it!!]
[Ah ah ah ah ah Wife!!]
[Lin Qingyan playing the piano is amazing! Is he an angel?]
At that time, in the Gu Corporation’s CEO’s office, the man was sitting in front of his desk, staring intently at the computer screen. All employees thought their CEO was diligently working overtime. No one expected Gu Ye to be sitting in his office watching an audition show.
The image of the young man playing the piano on the screen was something Gu Fei had never seen before.
The man’s gaze was serious and focused, his deep pupils reflecting the young man’s figure, his eyes gradually softening.
…
The prelude ended, and Lin Qingyan stood up. His well-tailored suit made his figure appear taller and more slender. He walked slowly into the formation of the other three.
“Like a cat in a cage,
Unable to escape like iron bars,
Like being trapped in a prison, unable to move,
Unable to move…”
It was a passionate song, with explosive choreography. The four had good singing skills, their dance moves synchronized yet unique. Especially when Lin Qingyan started singing, the audience was once again moved.
[Ah, Lin Qingyan’s voice is so beautiful!! I didn’t expect him to sing so well! My gaze can’t be taken away from him!]
[Lu Yuqi and Lin Qingyan are amazing!]
[Handsome, plays the piano, sings, dances—what a treasure boy! Why did I only discover him now!]
[But… I found out he seems to have made a mistake in his dance moves]
Not only the audience was amazed; all the mentors, including An Jing, and the contestants watched seriously, some even wide-eyed. When the performance ended, some excitedly stood up to cheer and applaud.
An Jing also applauded, his gaze lingering on Lin Qingyan, who stood at the side. The young man’s fair face was slightly flushed and covered in a light layer of sweat, panting.
“Let’s introduce yourselves first.”
Lu Yuqi: “Hello everyone, I’m Lu Yuqi.”
Lin Qingyan: “Hello everyone, I’m Lin Qingyan.”
Li Chuan, who was already introverted, followed suit, “Hello everyone, I’m Li Chuan.”
Liu Yang silently swallowed the lines he had prepared, “…Hello everyone, I’m Liu Yang.”
Were those three secretly planning this behind his back?
What could he do?
He couldn’t ask for special treatment! Damn it!
[Hahaha, is this what teamwork is? Finally, not those flowery self-introductions]
[23333 The arrogant King probably infected the other three]
Dance mentor Cynthia looked at Lin Qingyan with shining eyes, “Wow… Lin Qingyan, right? I like you. Your piano playing just now was captivating.”
Lin Qingyan was a little surprised; his ears turned slightly red. He shyly said thank you.
[Hahaha, Cynthia is me!]
[Yan Yan is so easy to blush, so obedient, his ears are red!]
