27: Chapter 27 Jiang Feng, the glutton, enraged Zhang Xiaochen.
She had always been a competitive person, so how could she be content with letting a group of men hog all the spotlight?
Therefore, she had to step forward.
Of course, she wasn't doing it for Jiang Feng.
She just wanted to prove that whatever men could do, women could do too.
And what's more, they could do it even better.
"Is Qingwan going to perform now?"
"That's getting interesting."
"Qingwan is probably going to sing."
"That must be it. I'm really looking forward to hearing Qingwan's singing."
"I didn't expect to be able to hear Qingwan's voice on this travel variety show."
Upon seeing Li Qingwan about to take the stage, the audience in the livestream began to fill with anticipation, as did the guests at the scene.
Li Qingwan's voice was known in the entertainment industry as a voice that carried its own purification. As soon as she began to sing, everyone's ears would be captivated.
"Qingwan, what kind of performance will you be giving?" host Chen Xue asked.
"I'll sing my signature song, 'Dawn and Dusk'," Li Qingwan said after some thought.
This was her debut song, and the one that truly made her a star.
At seventeen, she signed with a company and released this song. Once released, it became a massive hit across the internet. Following that, her career only soared higher, with every song she released becoming a smash hit.
However, the only thing Li Qingwan regretted was that she had never won a major award. Because of this, she was known as the "People's Diva."
In truth, this title was meant to belittle her, implying that her songs were only suitable for commoners to listen to and weren't fit for high-end venues, nor could they win major awards.
This was also the reason why Li Qingwan was so eager to leave her agency. She realized that the agency that had made her famous could no longer satisfy her growing ambition; she needed a bigger stage.
"Oh my god, she's going to sing 'Dawn and Dusk'!"
"That's her signature song!"
"I remember she hasn't sung this song in years, right?"
"We're in for a treat."
The audience in the livestream became excited.
"Every morning when I wake up,"
"Listening to the wind chimes by my ears."
Li Qingwan began to sing her signature song a cappella.
Even though it was a cappella, it left everyone present completely intoxicated.
"This is just too beautiful."
"Wuu wuu wuu, is this what a voice with its own purification sounds like?"
"This voice is absolutely incredible."
"After listening to it, I feel completely refreshed."
The audience in the livestream flooded the chat with comments. The audience at the scene also began to tap along to the rhythm until Li Qingwan finished singing.
"Beautiful."
"Amazing."
After she finished, the guests at the scene all gave her high praise.
Jiang Feng, without a doubt, also won the opportunity to have a limited selection of lamb.
Jiang Feng chose a large leg of lamb, making everyone at the scene incredibly envious.
Of course, what they envied wasn't just the large leg of lamb. What they envied was that Jiang Feng had such a wonderful wife. Zhang Xiaochen, in particular, was so jealous that his eyes were practically spitting fire. How could a woman like Li Qingwan fall for someone like Jiang Feng? Wasn't he a hundred times better than Jiang Feng?
"Jiang Feng, your wife Qingwan has won such a large leg of lamb for you."
"Do you have anything you want to say?"
Host Chen Xue walked up to Jiang Feng and asked.
"Thank you, thank you."
"This leg of lamb is delicious."
Jiang Feng hurriedly thanked her while devouring the food. He wasn't just being polite; the leg of lamb was truly delicious. It was roasted until the outside was crispy and the inside was tender, sizzling with oil. Combined with the soul-stirring chili powder, it was simply unbeatable. Thus, Jiang Feng was eating quite happily.
"Uh..."
Host Chen Xue felt a bit awkward seeing Jiang Feng wolfing down the food like that. This kid was truly something else. At a moment like this, shouldn't he be saying something incredibly touching to thank Li Qingwan? Why was he just eating?
"It seems our roast lamb is indeed delicious," host Chen Xue said, trying to smooth things over.
Deep down, she felt more and more convinced that the 'immortal at the magpie bridge' could not possibly have been written by Jiang Feng. With his behavior, how could he have written such an elegant poem?
As for Li Qingwan, seeing Jiang Feng's behavior, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She was observing Jiang Feng closely at this moment. She wanted to know if Jiang Feng was really playing dumb or if he was genuinely like this. But after watching him for a long time, she realized that Jiang Feng seemed to be genuinely simple-minded. He was eating so happily, with absolutely no trace of acting.
"Since Qingwan just sang her signature song,"
"Then I'll go next."
"I'll sing my signature song too."
Just then, Zhang Xiaochen couldn't sit still. He was feeling high-spirited. He thought that since Li Qingwan had just sung her signature song and received applause from everyone present, he should also show off a bit. After all, among the guests, only he and Li Qingwan were singers. Now was the time for a strong showdown. It was time to make Li Qingwan look at him with admiration, and it was time for everyone to refresh their impression of him.
"Go, husband!" Zhang Xiaochen's wife, Zhang Yi, shouted.
"My signature song, which I'm sure everyone knows, is called 'Unforgettable Night'," Zhang Xiaochen continued to brag.
The people at the scene were all confused. What "Unforgettable Night"? No one had ever heard of it, okay?
Then, Zhang Xiaochen began his performance.
"That was an unforgettable night."
"I still can't forget it to this day."
Zhang Xiaochen began to sing with his raspy, broken-gong voice. In the middle, he even added a breathless rap section.
When the people at the scene heard it, they all gritted their teeth. What the hell, this is a song?
Actually, this wasn't entirely Zhang Xiaochen's fault; he usually sang in a recording studio with vocal correction software, which made him think that was his real voice. Singing live, his true form was instantly exposed.
"Pfft."
The guests at the scene were all trying to hold back their laughter. But Jiang Feng really couldn't help it. The lamb in his mouth sprayed out instantly. The smile on his face was completely unstoppable.
"Jiang Feng, what are you laughing at?"
Jiang Feng's laughter instantly shattered the silence. Zhang Xiaochen looked at Jiang Feng with a dark expression. This was his signature song; he had expected to receive applause from everyone. But forget about applause, there was actually mocking laughter. The key was that the person mocking him was Jiang Feng. In his heart, Jiang Feng was the lowest of the low on this show. Anyone else could laugh at him, but Jiang Feng couldn't. Therefore, Zhang Xiaochen was furious. He stared fixedly at Jiang Feng, as if he wanted to swallow him alive.
