207: Lonely

Kim Jennie didn't mind; she walked over to her side and glanced, "'Lonely,' it seems like you don't have this song in your music library, do you?"

Xu Zhiyou stopped what she was doing and looked at her, "What's in my music library? Are you clearer about it than I am?"

"How could I not be clear? I've flipped through your little notebook so many times, but I've never seen this song."

"Never seen it?"

"What do you think!" Kim Jennie wanted to see how she would explain.

"Oh!"

Xu Zhiyou just said "oh" and continued with her song. Kim Jennie saw that she wasn't paying attention to her.

As she raised her hand, Kim Ji-soo pulled her back, "Wait a minute, let her write."

What else could Kim Jennie do? She just watched, waiting for about ten minutes.

Lee Chae-rin finally understood why Kim Jennie had reacted that way earlier, looking at Xu Zhiyou with a stunned expression.

Does talent really have to be so heaven-defying? She watched Park Sandara's shoddy work once, asked about the theme, and then wrote it out.

Park Sandara also secretly admired her; regardless of good or bad, this speed of creation was indeed a bit heaven-defying.

After about ten minutes, Xu Zhiyou sent the lyrics and sheet music to Park Sandara's phone, "See if it works."

Park Sandara opened it and saw the complete sheet music and lyrics, which was nothing special.

The lyrics actually had four versions: Chinese, English, Korean, and Japanese. She looked at Xu Zhiyou, "Tsk tsk tsk!"

"What's wrong?" Lee Chae-rin saw her expression, snatched her phone, and started looking at it.

Kim Jennie, on the other hand, tried to snatch Xu Zhiyou's phone but she dodged it, "Are you trying to kill me?"

Kim Jennie wasn't annoyed; she stretched out her hand, "Let me see."

Xu Zhiyou quickly tucked away her phone, "It hasn't been copyrighted yet. What if you plagiarize it?"

"Yah!"

Xu Zhiyou saw her face turn red, "Hey, hey, hey! Turning red at the slightest provocation, are you made of a monkey's butt?"

"Zoe, believe it or not, I..." Kim Jennie scrutinized Xu Zhiyou, seemingly unable to do anything to her.

Xu Zhiyou saw her stop mid-sentence, "What about you? It's not easy to be assertive for once, come on."

Kim Jennie heard her dismissive tone, "Aish, are you looking down on me?"

"Nonono!" She wagged her index finger at her, "I simply look down on your combat power, don't elevate the concept so high."

"Aish, isn't that nonsense?"

"Oh my, look at you, so capable." She reached out and pinched her cheek, "Soft and squishy, keep this feeling."

"Whoosh~" Her mouth was kneaded into a whale's mouth by Xu Zhiyou, only able to make whooshing sounds.

"Zoe!" Park Sandara pulled her in front of herself, "Sing it for me."

With that pull, Kim Jennie was liberated and quickly moved far away from this face-pinching maniac, "Pervert!"

"Oh my god, Dumpling Ni..."

Park Sandara interrupted her, "Stop messing around for a bit, sing it for me first."

Xu Zhiyou was helpless. She looked back at her, "Don't you know how to read sheet music? Just hum it!"

"Is that the same? Sing it quickly."

"Alright, alright." She rubbed her throat, "I just finished eating hotpot, so my voice isn't in the best condition. Just bear with it."

Park Sandara recalled her performance when dealing with Yang Hyun-suk and reminded her, "Sing it properly, don't howl like a dog."

"You're the one howling like a dog, I..."

"Stop, sing first, then you can diss me. I'll wait, no rush." Park Sandara couldn't stand her dawdling.

"Heh!" She rubbed her throat again, picked up the rice spoon on the table, "Starting now."

"Pfft~" Kim Ji-soo admired this comedian, making her almost burst out laughing.

Park Sandara and Lee Chae-rin were also stunned by her actions, but thinking of Xu Zhiyou's personality, they just smiled.

Kim Jennie and Lisa pulled out their phones, one on each side, and started recording. This was a teaching session.

Her vocal techniques were very valuable for reference.

Xu Zhiyou closed her eyes, found her feeling, and then began to sing.

"What I'm saying now might hurt you"

The first line immediately caught Park Sandara's attention.

The two words 'now' started softly, with incredibly stable breath, like a gentle whisper.

And 'might' slightly increased the breath output, showing a kind of uncertain but also somewhat worried emotion.

Just two lines of lyrics made Park Sandara feel the powerful vocal ability, and she stared at her intently.

Xu Zhiyou continued to sing her song a cappella.

"Maybe until you die, you'll still hate me"

Lee Chae-rin looked at her like a monster. Her singing skills were also good, so she could naturally tell good from bad.

'Maybe' was sung lightly and softly, her breath like a gentle breeze, and 'until you die' was incredibly smooth and continuous.

On the word 'die,' she slightly increased the intensity of her breath, showing a sense of heaviness.

This completely unmasked singing style, expressing emotion through vocal skill, was a perfect teaching session.

"You said I'm not like before, those words weren't entirely wrong.

I also feel that the changed me is very unfamiliar. You are still so kind..."

Kim Ji-soo looked at Xu Zhiyou singing with her eyes closed and thought of her carefree personality.

It was really hard to connect the goddess with full charisma in front of her with that scatterbrained madwoman. The sense of disconnect was too strong.

"Baby, I'm so lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely..."

The conversion between true and falsetto, and the free switching between high and low notes, left Lisa completely mesmerized.

Lisa sighed, wondering why Park Chaeyoung had left. Otherwise, she would definitely help her remember.

To think she dared to lecture Xu Zhiyou on singing back then; if she didn't tease her to death, she'd take her surname.

Kim Jennie also clicked her tongue in amazement. She couldn't understand why Xu Zhiyou was so strong yet so lazy.

Xu Zhiyou finished singing the entire song, opened her eyes, and put down the spoon, "My throat isn't comfortable, just bear with it."

"Uh!!!" The five people were instantly silenced.

Park Sandara looked at her with a frustrated expression, "Zoe, are you speaking human language?"

"Oh! No, it's ghost language." Xu Zhiyou blurted out. She had died once, so saying she was a ghost wasn't wrong.

"Sigh!" Kim Ji-soo massaged her forehead, "Zoe, can't you maintain it for just a little longer? Just a tiny bit."

"Show Ge, are you despising me? Is there no love left?" Xu Zhiyou looked at her with a heartbroken expression.

Kim Ji-soo saw her lifeless expression, massaged her forehead, and sighed, "Forget it, I'll watch the video playback."

She had the face to be a top luxury brand ambassador, yet she herself played it off as a clothes hanger that shipped for nine yuan ninety-nine.

"Tch!" Xu Zhiyou saw that she wasn't paying attention to her and looked at Park Sandara, "How is it?"

"Very good, this is the one."

Xu Zhiyou didn't want to go promote the song and glanced at Lee Chae-rin nearby.

She rubbed her hands together, "Um, Chae-rin Unnie, do you have time to join in?"

Lee Chae-rin seemed to have misheard, pointing at her nose, "Me?"

Xu Zhiyou was quite speechless, "Well, who else? The ghost behind you?"

"Uh!" Lee Chae-rin was stunned for a moment, then asked with some uncertainty.

"Why me? As far as I know, Chaeyoung's singing is also very powerful. Wouldn't she be more suitable?"
