Chapter 88 - 84: Bitter Sweet First Love-2

Qing Jiang Mei smiled brightly and spoke. "Mrs. Yue Li Lian, may I know what you are feeling as you sing the song?"

Li Lian nodded for a moment before answering. " When it was true that Song Ru fell for Wei Shuen, and the lyrics implying her wishing to be taken away. I do think she wasn't talking about her wish to leave the house, rather she wished for her feelings and love for Wei Shuen to disappear. "

"Oh? And how could you say that?" Qing Jiang Mei further questioned.

" In the novel, it was said that Song Ru met Wei Shuen for the first time and fell for him because of the loneliness and his beautiful eyes. However, that night when she met him, Song Ru knew exactly that Wei Shuen was Gu Ren fiancee. She knew but she couldn't help falling for him. That resulted in her sad yet sweet love. A bitter-sweet love." Li Lian further explained.

"Oh..." Qing Jiang Mei and the other judges agree quickly.

"Mrs. Yue Li Lian, you are exactly right, this is what we want to achieve in the song. A sad yet affectionate song. Thank you very much."

Li Lian nodded before taking her leave. "Thank you very much too."

Xie Hue Lin who heard Li Lian's explanation gave a dark expression. She didn't expect that Li Lian would retort back to her explanation and perfected the song's meaning!!

Now in some people's eyes, Xie Hue Lin's words about reading the novel sounded very empty because she didn't know the feelings that were depicted inside the novel.

Xie Hue Lin kneaded her palm tightly and gritted her teeth. 'd*mnnit!!!'

Sitting back down to her seat, Li Lian could feel glaring from both Xie Hue Lin who was sitting in her front left and Han Xiu Nan from the back.

Feeling the trembling from Xie Hue Lin's body, He Chang Min wrapped his hand on Xie Hue Lin's shoulder and worriedly asked. "Xiao- Lin, are you alright?"

Xie Hue Lin dissolved her panic expression and shook her head with a smile. "No, it's nothing... It's just... Jie-Jie singing and her explanation are far better than me... Even though I read the novel too, it seems that I couldn't understand Song Ru's feelings like her..."

Xie Hue Lin pointed Li Lian's intention to allude her and meekly looked down bitterly. "I... Lost my confidence for a moment..."

He Chang Min immediately shook his head and denied her low confidence comments. "No, Xiao- Lin, that is what Lian-Lia-... Li Lian describes. When reading a novel, lyric, or script, each story and words could have different meanings. Perhaps she takes it in a different way than you. Don't worry, have confidence. I believe you would definitely win."

Noticing something important from He Chang Min's words, Xie Hue Lin nodded and snuggled to He Chang Min's shoulders. "Mn, thank you, Min- Ge."

She squinted her eyes and glanced toward Li Lian coldly. 'That's right. So what if that b*tch could sing better than me? Father had bribed Director Gu... So there's no way she could win...'

'Just be happy for a moment Jie-Jie, you haven't seen everything yet!'

Qing Jiang Mei and the other song maker was left with a few minutes to decide which auditioners to pass the audition.

Although they didn't say a word about it, deep in their heart, they already have one choice for the winner.

The three of them look at Li Lian's auditioning picture with a dark expression. After the long awkward pause in the tense room, one of the song makers, Ming Lu finally spoke.

Ming Lu, "I know what you guys are thinking. It's about the singer who Director Gu ordered us to pass right? Mrs. Xie Hue Lin? I do acknowledge her singing voice, however, there's no mistake, Mrs. Yue Li Lian's singing voice and techniques are far better than her!"

Qing Jiang Mei exhaled a long sigh. "That what I have been telling you guys and Director Gu. But because of that d*amning sponsor money, we can't possibly pass Mrs. Yue..."

The other song maker, Ho Shi replied strongly. "Then, Ge-Ge, why can't we just ignore Director Gu's order and pass Mr. Yue? After hearing her singing, I bet even Director Gu would retract his order!"

Qing Jiang Mei shook his head. "We can't..."
