74: Chapter 74 featured a plot twist that left viewers thoroughly entertained.
"That's right, he's a pure jinx who can't help Li Qingwan's career at all; on the contrary, he only drags her down."
"I really don't know what Li Qingwan sees in a person like this."
"Look, he's still sleeping. It's really infuriating."
Netizens saw Li Qingwan being bullied on the show.
Yet they had no way to vent the frustration in their hearts.
Thus, they could only vent all their frustration and anger onto Jiang Feng.
After all, who told this guy to be Li Qingwan's husband?
Who told this guy to be so useless?
Everyone already harbored resentment toward him.
Venting it on him now was only natural.
However...
Just as everyone thought Li Qingwan would admit defeat,
and that this scheme against Li Qingwan would end in her crushing defeat,
Jiang Feng, who hadn't appeared on camera for a long time, suddenly stepped into the frame.
He reached out and took Li Qingwan's slightly trembling hand.
"I was bored just now, so I wrote a song."
"You can take it and sing it."
Jiang Feng spoke in a nonchalant tone, yet he uttered the most heartwarming words.
On camera, Li Qingwan was stunned. She looked at Jiang Feng, feeling somewhat moved.
She could hardly believe her eyes.
Well...
Of course, that was Li Qingwan's reaction.
The audience in the bullet comments wasn't moved in the slightest.
Instead, they were somewhat speechless.
"Wait, bro? You're saying you were bored just now and wrote a song, and you want Li Qingwan to sing it?"
"No, do you really think you're the music industry's Lyric Saint?"
"Are you sure this song you wrote is actually singable?"
"What did Wang Lin just sing? That was a song produced by Tianlai Entertainment's gold-medal producer."
"And you're telling me to let Li Qingwan sing a song you just wrote?"
"I know you really want to show off your 'good husband' side right now and prove to everyone that you're not worthless."
"But please read the room."
"Is this an occasion for joking around?"
"Oh my god, sis, wasn't that song 'bubble' already proven online? Wen Youren wrote it for Li Qingwan."
"Just because they put your name on it, you really think you wrote it?"
"Exactly. Someone posted a thread last time with multiple pieces of evidence proving that the song was written by Wen Youren for Li Qingwan."
"First, Wen Youren reposted Li Qingwan's 'bubble'."
"Second, Wen Youren once said in public that he wanted to write a love song about how easily love breaks."
"Third, the reason this song was credited to Jiang Feng is most likely because Wen Youren didn't dare to openly oppose Tianlai Entertainment."
"So, does this Jiang Feng really think he's a Lyric Saint? He just writes a random song and dares to let Li Qingwan sing it?"
The netizens were speechless.
However, what was even more unexpected for the netizens...
...was that Li Qingwan actually agreed directly.
She even wanted to share the stage with Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng would play the accompaniment, and Li Qingwan would sing blindly.
"Setting aside whether Jiang Feng can play the piano, the 'blind singing' part alone seems pretty unreliable to me."
"I think there's only one possibility now: Jiang Feng wants to take the blame himself."
"If they lose to Wang Lin, everyone will only scold Jiang Feng and not Li Qingwan."
"Damn, now that you put it that way, it really seems like it."
"I admit it, I blamed you wrongly, okay, Jiang Feng?"
Seeing Jiang Feng and Li Qingwan on stage together in the video,
netizens didn't think the two would create any kind of good performance.
However...
When the piano was moved onto the stage,
and Jiang Feng sat before it, gently playing the intro to 'invisible wings',
at that moment, Jiang Feng seemed like a completely different person.
"Wait, Jiang Feng actually knows how to play the piano?"
"It seems... he plays quite well?"
"Damn, I underestimated Jiang Feng a bit."
"Exactly, this level of piano playing feels very professional."
"Could it be that this guy actually has some talent?"
The netizens were very surprised that Jiang Feng could have such a level of piano skill.
But they still held little hope...
...for the song the two were about to perform.
Being professional at the piano didn't mean one could write songs.
Songwriting requires not just composing the music, but also writing the lyrics.
However...
When Li Qingwan sang the first line,
all the netizens were stunned.
What does it mean to have 'ears suddenly cleared as if hearing celestial music'?
This was probably that feeling.
"Every time, I am strong amidst wandering and loneliness."
"Every time, even if deeply hurt, I don't let tears glint."
Li Qingwan's voice was gentle, melancholic, and strong.
She wasn't just singing a song; she seemed to be singing about herself.
In an instant, countless netizens typed out 'holy crap'.
They were immersed in the singing.
"I know that I have always had a pair of invisible wings,"
"To carry me, flying over despair."
As Li Qingwan reached this part, her eyes grew slightly red.
She seemed to be thinking of herself.
The netizens felt goosebumps all over their bodies.
This song fit Li Qingwan's current situation perfectly.
"Waaa, I'm crying."
"Thinking of everything Li Qingwan has faced, I feel like I can't hold back my tears."
"I also want Li Qingwan to have a pair of invisible wings to carry her over despair."
"Right now, she really needs them too much."
And when Li Qingwan sang the climax of the song,
singing the line 'I finally see all my dreams blossom, how resonant the young voices of pursuit are'.
'I finally soar, gazing with my heart without fear; wherever there is wind, I will fly that far.'
Countless viewers were moved to tears.
Although this was an inspirational song,
when Li Qingwan sang it, it felt more like a true portrayal of herself and her hopes.
"Li Qingwan, keep going!"
"All of us support you!"
"You are the best Li Qingwan in the world!"
"Keep going! Li Qingwan!!!!"
"We love you!!!"
Suddenly, the video's bullet comments were filled with 'Li Qingwan, keep going'.
This already announced Li Qingwan's victory.
And when the netizens saw that after Li Qingwan delivered such a god-tier live performance,
she still only received two judge votes,
they began to furiously curse the two female judges.
Fortunately, the clouds finally cleared, and Li Qingwan won against Wang Lin with a crushing score of over two hundred and eighty votes.
"So satisfying."
"That was a thrill to watch."
"Exactly, how can it be this satisfying?"
"This plot twist really made my whole body feel comfortable."
"Wasn't this Wang Lin arrogant? Why did she look so dejected when she left the stage?"
"Haha, exactly. I don't know if you saw, but after Li Qingwan won, those two female judges' faces turned black."
"This song is called 'invisible wings', right? I declare this the most god-tier live performance song of this music variety show."
"This song will definitely explode across the entire internet!"
"Maybe it'll be even more popular than bubble!"
