Chapter 71 - 71 An Eyesore of a Performance

71 An Eyesore of a Performance

Just as the manager was about to reprimand her, he followed Yu Yi’s gaze and saw the bright signboard on the door. He understood and nodded.

The two of them walked towards their dressing room like generals who were certain of victory.

In an instant, even the manager’s face bloomed with a smile. He couldn’t stop smiling and was already calculating how much benefits he could reap this time.

The ceremony was about to begin. Yu Yi still had to lightly touch up her makeup.

“I really want to see our Fifth Sister’s performance soon.”

Ye Chan had an anxious expression on her face, causing the people beside her to snicker. Amidst everyone’s laughter, the Star of Tomorrow Annual Ceremony began.

Colorful lights lit up on the originally bright stage. It was like the opening of a superstar’s concert.

Before the audience could cheer, they saw a large number of fireworks setting off on the stage and around today’s venue at the same time.

Colorful fireworks soared into the sky, illuminating the stage beautifully.

At this infatuating moment, the male host in a black tuxedo helped the female host, who was wearing a snow-white long dress, onto the stage.

“Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Star of Tomorrow Annual Ceremony!” The male and female hosts spoke together, their impassioned voices bringing about a tsunami-like cheer.

The male and female hosts looked at each other. They had expected the lively scene, but it was also a little unexpected.

They had long expected the cheers and shouts, but they never expected the audience to be so enthusiastic. They shouted for a few minutes before gradually calming down.

The female host smiled brightly and said elegantly, “I can already feel the passion of the audience. I believe that with everyone’s support, our Annual Ceremony tonight will be even more exciting!”

The male and female hosts spoke one after another on the stage, causing the audience to roar with laughter.

Even Ye Chan, Ye Xuan, and the others sitting in front of the television were amused.

The first person to appear today was a male celebrity who walked the path of rock and roll.

As soon as the music for “Blooming Life”1 was played at full blast, the entire audience began to shout excitedly.

The male celebrity’s performance was standard. Although it was not outstanding, it was good because of his solid foundation. Coupled with the fact that rock and roll was a very powerful music to begin with, the effect of the entire scene directly exploded!

“I want a blooming life.”

“Like flying in the vast sky.”

“Like walking through an endless wilderness.”

“I want the power to break free of everything.”

“I want a blooming life.”

“Like standing on top of a rainbow.”

“Like walking through a bright galaxy.”

“Possessing power beyond the ordinary.”

His rough voice carried a unique charm that ignited this passionate night!

The audience’s hands swayed with the rhythm, and they were already screaming deafeningly.

After the male celebrity finished his performance, a song and dance performance began.

More than ten graceful girls in luxurious clothes danced vigorously in the middle of the stage. Their long sleeves kept waving in the air as they turned around on the stage like elves.

After the dance ended, the female host went on stage alone. The lights shone on her.

The beautiful female host was like a goddess who had descended to the mortal world. She looked down at the stunned audience below the stage.

“Dancing is an innate ability of humans. It’s the most natural expression of human love for Mother Nature. In the thousands of years of development, dance has always followed our lives. Let us thank the dancers for their perfect performance with warm applause! Next, let’s welcome Miss Yu Yi to sing the song ‘Upwards to the Moon’2 for us.”

As the female host walked off the stage, Yu Yi’s fans in the audience erupted into screams!

“Ah, it’s finally my Yu Yi’s turn!”

“Yi Yi, you have to work hard! You’ll definitely win the championship today for such a difficult song like Upwards to the Moon! You’re too awesome!”

“Yu Yi is my goddess. You will always be the best! No matter what the outcome is, you will always be the uncrowned queen in my heart!”

“Yu Yi is one in a million! We love you the most!”

Amidst the cheers of the fans, Yu Yi slowly walked out.

She was still wearing the black floor-length evening gown.

Under the stage lights, the sequins on the black evening gown shone brightly.

Yu Yi looked like a proud black flower as she gently walked to the center of the stage.

Her faintly discernible white legs made Yu Yi’s figure look even taller and more graceful. She was full of femininity.

In order to emphasize the highlights of her figure, Yu Yi even deliberately made a few enchanting poses, causing the entire venue to erupt with screams again.

“Wow, did you see that?! Her figure is really amazing. Tsk, tsk, tsk!”

“Her long legs are still eye-catching! Yu Yi is definitely a queen. She’s too attractive!”

“What kind of taste do you have! Isn’t she just showing off her figure on television? Pfft!”

Contrary to the excitement of the male audience, not only were the ladies indifferent to Yu Yi’s poss showing off her figure, but they were also a little disgusted.

Couldn’t she just sing well in the singing competition? Why was she showing off?

For a moment, the passersby who knew about Yu Yi’s past scandals could not help but complain in their hearts.

After all, Yu Yi’s popularity was simply too poor. Back then, she had even been exposed as a staff member who acted like a big shot, causing her popularity to fall to rock bottom.

Yu Yi didn’t know that she had made a fool of herself. When she heard the music, she also began to sway gently and sing.

To be honest, Yu Yi’s voice was quite good. It was a good match for such fairy-like songs.

In front of the television, Ye Chan frowned and muttered, “Yu Yi actually chose such a difficult song. It sounds alright now. However, I wonder if she will become our Fifth Sister’s competitor!”

Ye Xuan didn’t mind. He directly pointed out Yu Yi’s shortcomings. “Her voice is okay, but her aura isn’t stable enough. I’m afraid it will be difficult for her to raise her pitch towards the end.”

He was not trying to comfort Ye Chan. He was purely telling the truth.

As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Chan looked at her younger brother. She did not expect him to be an expert.

Then, the singing began.

“My left hand holds the ground, and my right hand holds the sky. Lightning flashes in all directions from my palms.”

“Quickly exchange the passing time for years, yet we never meet in three thousand lifetimes.”

“With a flower in my left hand and a sword in my right, ten thousand years of snow falls between my eyebrows.”

“A teardrop, ah ah ah. That’s me, ah ah ah.”

Yu Yi’s aura simply couldn’t last until the most passionate and highest part of the song. Furthermore, her current pitch had already exceeded the range of her strength.

Yu Yi’s voice simply broke!

Whoosh!

In an instant, everyone at the scene and in front of the screen was stunned!

This…

This was such a perfect song. However, her voice broke at the climax that should have been successful. It was simply an insult to “Upwards to the Moon”!

Yu Yi’s reaction was considered fast. After all, her strength was limited. This was not the first time her voice had broken. She could be considered to have experience in saving the situation.

Since her voice had broken, she definitely could not continue singing.

She simply danced with the dancers around her. There was no effect of her voice breaking at all, as if the flaw just now was also a part of the performance.

The audience at the scene was the most affected. The dissatisfied audience was about to laugh from anger.

This was too ironic, okay?

Her singing was simply too clumsy.

“It’s a live broadcast after all. Why is she singing like this?!”

“That’s right! When I saw her like that previously, I thought she was so confident! It turns out that she sings like this. It’s so awkward!”

“Oh my god! If I were the director, I would have to take responsibility! This is even a live broadcast!”

In front of the screen, Ye Chan, Ye Xuan, and the others were instantly stunned. Then, they couldn’t help but laugh. Ah, this…

It was something they had never expected.

Ye Xuan was delighted. It seemed like his Fifth Sister’s championship was guaranteed.

Even Yu Yi’s fans had to admit that their idol had made a mistake this time.

This level of performance on such a beautiful stage was a little low.

Meanwhile, Ye Fei’s assistant helped Ye Fei tidy up her dress and said with a smile, “Sister Fei, as long as you perform normally, you will definitely win today’s championship.”

The previous few competitors either put on a mediocre performance or had problems. This was such a good opportunity. Ye Fei’s good luck had arrived!

“Alright, alright, stop nagging me.” Ye Fei waved her hand. She didn’t have the habit of kicking others when they were down. She just wanted to be herself.

Meanwhile, the male host had already walked onto the stage. His black tuxedo made him look tall and straight, like a gentleman from the Middle Ages.

“Before I could speak, I felt the heat wave coming at me and the anticipation of the audience! Next, let’s welcome tonight’s most eye-catching female singer, Miss Ye Fei, to sing the song ‘A Diao’3 for us.”

Just as the male host finished speaking, Ye Fei walked onto the stage in a bright silver evening gown.

Her originally fair skin looked even more energetic under the contrast of the bright silver evening gown.

If Yu Yi looked like a goddess before, then Ye Fei was the actual goddess now.

As soon as Ye Fei appeared, the lighting technician shot the spotlight over. Then, the perfect person appeared in front of everyone.

The entire venue was silent for a moment before shocking shouts erupted.
