Chapter 193 - 4.19

"Now, now, you two, do you want to see something interesting? There's no way that you two will just stay here without me doing anything, right?" Xu Jiaqi mediated the two's exchange.

Big Brother is Angry!: Oh? Streamer Goddess is going to throw money again?

"This time is a bit special. To celebrate my arrival I thought that maybe I should showcase some of my talents? Just for you two, it's going to be a special show." Xu Jiaqi smiled.

Big Brother is Angry!: Ohh! That sounds interesting!

Big Brother is Angry!: What is it about? Hurry and tell!

"I'm going to play some music."

Big Brother is Angry!: The Goddess can play music too? Too Godly! This is unfair! The world is unfair, God is unfair for not distributing talents equally!

Big Brother is Angry!: I know I am handsome, so my talents have been affected majorly by that. Balance is key! But Goddess knows no balance, she is simply too perfect!

Butters Don't Fly: You talk too much.. Goddess, what is it that you are going to play?

After talking for a while, Butters actually began to call Xu Jiaqi the Goddess too. Her original character was meant to be a Queen, but there was not much of a difference even if her people caleld her a Goddess.

"Haa.. It's a violin. You see, it's been a long time since I touched any musical instrument at all.. Because of some matters. To be precise, I got into streaming because I wanted to feel the stage without actually being on it just yet." Xu Jiaqi took out her violin.

After thinking for some time, she decided to do this for specific reasons.

First, these two were acquaintances. They also didn't seem to particularly be bad people. Feng Qin was a little crude with his words, but small details could be excused.

The problem was Butters. This other viewer of her, who came to see her because he was the type of person that only believed what he saw with his own two eyes. He came here because Feng Qin boasted about her.

Then, in order to grip Butters tightly within her fingers, she should offer up some bait.

Big Brother is Angry!: Violin sounds fancy lololol

Big Brother is Angry!: It suits you very well, Queen Goddess! Very high class!

Butters Don't Fly: I'm looking forward to it, jiayou!

"Mn, I might play a bit bad. It's.. been a long time." Xu Jiaqi let out a nervous sigh, angling the violin gently against the crook of her neck, laying down her chin on the resting area. She tightened her bow and tuned the violin properly before taking one last deep breath.

Then, she began to play a piece that she was familiar with. It was one that she took a liking to when the System showed its repertoire, and she had properly mastered it in case she needed it in the future. Lo and behold, it really was needed in this world.

Her playing style differed by a lot from the original owner, but due to staying in her body, her style was somewhat influenced little by little. It threw her off slightly, but she let herself fall into the complex rhythms and lost herself in the melodies.

Her bow strokes were like water as she changed her technique, jumping from one hard part to another. She poured her entire soul into it, and expressed her feeling towards the music that responded to her in rich tones that were heard by the viewers.

Feng Qin and Tang Yixiu, albeit not knowing how to play the violin, were able to sense the depth of the performance. Hearing Xu Jiaqi play, it was like she was about to let out tears. Like she had a mountain pile of suffering and sadness pressing her down, and yet she continued to play the music even if it meant her body would bleed with every move she took, every sound she made, and every energy she spent.

The performance was short, but memorable. It didn't last longer than three minutes. And yet, the legendary instance was already recorded vividly inside the viewers' minds.

Big Brother is Angry!: My goodness! Your Majesty, I was completely mesmerized!

Big Brother is Angry!: I am a fool who knows nothing about classical music or all that, but it sounded very fancy, you're beautiful, the sound is perfect, much love to you!

Big Brother is Angry!: My ears were totally blessed! It got cleaned from inside out! The moans of the.. Uh, content I watched last night doesn't compare at all to this performance!

Big Brother is Angry!: Goddess, you wanted to fool us when you said that you might play a bit bad, right? For this type of skill to be played so casually.. Goddess, what level of mastery are you on?

Big Brother is Angry!: Encore! Encore! Encore!

Butters Don't Fly: Goddess, it was excellent! I bow to your skill!

"Are you sure you are not just saying that because you want to please me?" Xu Jiaqi chuckled. "It's not too grand compared to what I used to do. In fact, I am a little bit disappointed that.. I can probably only play this one piece tonight."

Big Brother is Angry!: Ao? Why is that?

"..I'm in the process of recovering. If one day, I fully recover, then I will make sure that I will play in front of you until you get sick of my playing. For now.... There's no way to continue. Spending money makes me feel a lot better than this!" Xu Jiaqi complained, placing her violin aside and massaging her shoulders with a grim face.

Although it didn't show up in camera, her limbs were trembling all over the place. She gritted her teeth, trying to keep her composure as much as possible, but it was so horrendous to be in this place. This body rejected the concept of playing the violin in itself.

It was no longer just a matter of remembering the past. It was much more deeper and scarring.
