Entertainment: The system makes me a porter

Chapter 42 Music Variety Show 4

"Okay, you two can go and have a rest first. Thank you for your hard work, teachers. Okay, then we will start selecting audience members to tell us why you voted." The host selected a man who was crying very sadly. It might be the first time in his career that the host saw a middle-aged man crying so sadly.

"I have a girlfriend who I have been in love with for seven years. We were planning to get married, but both of us had an opportunity to go further. For our better future, we didn't want to give up, so we agreed to get promoted first. But we were both very busy at that time, and we officially broke up in the tenth year of our relationship. Because after we were promoted, we were both too busy and had no time to take care of the family. We thought it would be better to separate and find someone who would take care of the family. I was with her when I was 20 years old, and now I am 35. Neither of us has found the so-called better one, and we actually didn't quarrel because we were both busy with work, and no one was willing to give up the fruits of their hard work. I love her and respect her and her career for her free choice."

The man wiped his tears and continued, "You must cherish the one in front of you. Don't be like me, regretting it after losing her." After saying that, he took a deep look at Qiao Qiuqin and Xue Xiaoxia on the stage. "Qiao Qiuqin, it's not easy for you and him. I have read the lyrics of the song "Hope". It's just a lyric."

Many people were moved to tears by the man’s story.

The host was also deeply touched. He said with emotion: "This is life, always full of regrets and helplessness. I hope everyone can learn a lesson from this story and cherish the people around them. Many people also know the story of Qiuqin and Xiaoxia. They are lucky and now they seem very happy."

Hearing this, Qiao Qiuqin and Xue Xiaoxia smiled at each other, their eyes full of emotion and relief.

Seeing this, the host took the opportunity to ask, "So, what do you two think of this gentleman's story?"

Qiao Qiuqin took the microphone and spoke in a slightly low voice: "What I want to say is that life is unpredictable and we cannot predict the future. But what we can do is to seize the present and cherish each other. Thank fate for bringing us together, and thank each other for our persistence and hard work."

Xue Xiaoxia nodded and added, "Right, just like the song goes, 'If you want me to hug you tomorrow, it would be better if we can't meet tomorrow, I promise to come as soon as possible'. If you really still love each other, why not try again? At least don't leave any regrets in your heart."

The man seemed to have made up his mind. After thanking the host and Xue Xiaoxia, he sat down.

The host concluded with a smile: "I hope everyone can have their own happiness! Our next topic is "Flowers" and any form of flowers will do. Today's program ends here, let us look forward to our next gathering together!"

[This is another vague topic. What do you think? Is there any song you want? Any form of snowflakes should be fine, host, please speak. 】

Xue Xiaoxia didn't know what weird things this system had seen recently, and she was a little irritated.

[Host, you are just a host. Please have a sense of boundaries and don't always think that the system has learned something strange. Your system is just overwhelmed by performance recently. ]

Xue Xiaoxia wondered why the system had to roll up its sleeves? And she didn't seem to be a lazy host, did she? If she couldn't get first place, she should be in the middle compared to the others, right?

[Yes, host, we are not only in the middle, our performance is directly in the top ten. Some people are so weird when they can't stand the good performance of the system, which is really unethical. Moreover, they lied to the system and said that the host would not cooperate with the system. Host, look, haven't we always been harmonious? ]

Xue Xiaoxia felt that her Tong was still too young. [Tong, it's not that they don't cooperate with the system, it's that their system gives too little. Look, I can at least exchange one song for one, and some songs can even be exchanged for 10. But they can't necessarily do that. Not to mention that many fragmented tasks are difficult to obtain points, they all have to be saved for life to complete tasks.]

Xue Xiaoxia thought about it and decided to comfort her system.

[Boss, ignore them, we just need to do our best. Besides, our goal is not to be the best, there is no need to bother with them. It's like this in the workplace, they are just jealous of your excellence and luck.]

[But... I just can't get over it! And every time I go back, they always sneer at me and say that I go back so often.] The system is still a little indignant.

[Since we can't win the argument, let's work hard to improve our performance and leave them speechless!] Xue Xiaoxia encouraged, [You have a lot of points now. If it doesn't work out, I'll just buy some skills and help you get to the top of the list for fun?]

After hearing this, the system felt a little better. [Is it true that we are at the top of the list? But we are still a long way from the top. The game will probably take about a year to be officially launched, and the download volume will only count when that happens.]

[It's ok. The costume change will be ready soon. This can be launched directly. The test has been completed. It's a little less, but we still have income, right? There will be a time when it exceeds. ]

Qiao Qiuqin saw that Xue Xiaoxia looked a little absent-minded, "Why is this question so difficult?"

It was the first time that Qiao Qiuqin saw Xue Xiaoxia in such an awkward state. After all, in Qiao Qiuqin's mind, it was very easy for Xue Xiaoxia to write songs.

"Hmm..." Xue Xiaoxia frowned, as if thinking about some difficult problem.

Qiao Qiuqin patted his shoulder gently. "It's okay. We'll think about it slowly. Maybe we can start with flowers in our lives, such as roses, lilies, etc."

"I don't think it's very fresh, and I've already released Red and White Roses before." Xue Xiaoxia shook her head, "The new song has to have flowers. I really need to think about this title."

At this time, the system's voice sounded [Host, I thought of it! ]

Xue Xiaoxia's eyes lit up, [What is it? Tell me quickly! ]

[It's the red spider lily! It symbolizes love that lasts through life and death, just like the love between you. Moreover, the flower language of the red spider lily also includes "missing" and "memories", so the chance of repeating it should not be high. ]

"Higanbana..." Qiao Qiuqin muttered in a low voice, "... Lycoris radiata."

[What is this? Lycoris radiata is a little unpopular, with only 100+ uses to date. Please listen to a section to confirm if this is the song? ]

Xue Xiaoxia listened to it and thought, "Yes, this is the song." However, this song is indeed unpopular. It was a gamble. Her current score is still quite high, and she is not at the point of being eliminated.

[That's true, but why did you choose this song? Even if it's the same group that sang this song, there are other songs related to flowers, which are much more popular than this one, and they are not likely to be repeated. ]

Actually, it's not impossible, but Xue Xiaoxia really likes this song, but because her voice and some musical skills don't match, if she insists on singing it, she needs to change the singing skills of this song. It can be said to be a model of high investment and low return. Xue Xiaoxia wants a song that is a little different.

[Okay, in exchange for "Manjusaka". ]

Xue Xiaoxia pulled Qiao Qiuqin back to the hotel quickly. Xue Xiaoxia wanted to go back quickly and let Qiao Qiuqin practice this song.

If the direction of love is at the end of the world, can you stay for me?

The coldness of the world will melt the true love, even if it takes several lifetimes of struggle

If love is a flower of the other shore, I will pick it and make it into your hairpin

A thousand years of reincarnation just for a heart-breaking wait, this love has taken root in my heart

You are the morning star and I am the setting sun. You watch the sunrise and I watch the moon.

The young man on the moor rides on the steed, you are Manzhu and I am Shahua

If a meeting is to become a longing, don't forget the day a thousand years ago

If you can still wake up when your hair turns white, let me watch the sunset with you

You are the morning star and I am the setting sun. You watch the sunrise and I watch the moon.

The young man on the moor rides on the steed, you are Manzhu and I am Shahua

It was the first time that Qiao Qiuqin heard a song with a style like Xue Xiaoxia's. Qiao Qiuqin found it very interesting and tried hard to learn how to sing like Xue Xiaoxia.

This line of lyrics is full of an uninhibited and casual atmosphere, as if people can feel the singer's deep yearning and pursuit for freedom. It expresses an attitude of transcending worldly constraints and being unfettered in concise and powerful language, leaving a deep impression on people.

Although the three words "very free and easy" are short, they can accurately convey the emotional core of the song. This description makes the originally abstract concept concrete and tangible, making it easier for the audience to understand and resonate.

Xue Xiaoxia knew that Qiao Qiuqin was a genius when she read the novel version. It took only three or four days for him to sing out the feeling that Xue Xiaoxia wanted.

[That's not right, host. His original version didn't sound so hoarse? Like a child?] The system suspected that its host had a lot of ideas, but it did sound like this version was better.

[You don't care about your own business. He also sang with a smoky voice before. You see, there are also smoky voice versions of singing techniques.]

Xue Xiaoxia felt that her system was a little ignorant and didn't care about her business at all.

The system made Xue Xiaoxia confused. She didn't want to think that she was not as familiar with the system as the host, so she decided to learn more about her own business.

Xue Xiaoxia didn't dare to slack off these days, as this was the first time he and Qiao Qiuqin sang a song of this style.

According to the points from the previous period, Xue Xiaoxia and his team were still the last to perform.

What Xue Xiaoxia had not expected was that before this round of competition even started, Xiao Ziran and Ye Zixuan actually left the stage early!

The reason was that the song that Ye Zixuan had carefully prepared was not completed on time.

This sudden change surprised everyone, especially Xue Xiaoxia. After all, she had not noticed any clues during the previous training and rehearsals. The two even went to the training room.

The audience who were originally looking forward to the exciting duel between the two could not help but feel sorry for them and speculated about the inside story. For a time, there were many different opinions, various rumors spread like wildfire, and even conspiracy theories began to emerge.

Xiao Ziran lowered his head and it was obvious that he was feeling very uncomfortable, but he also knew that he could not blame Ye Zixuan now.

After all, writing songs is not an easy task. The reason they can get to where they are now is because Xue Xiaoxia helped them before.

The two of them left the stage regretfully, and the host announced that the competition would continue. Finally, it was Xue Xiaoxia and Qiao Qiuqin's turn to appear.

Xue Xiaoxia was holding a guitar when she went on stage. All of Xue Xiaoxia's fans tacitly believed that as long as Xue Xiaoxia took out the musical instrument, it would be like using her ultimate move.

Before the show even started, Xue Xiaoxia's fans in the audience were already jokingly shouting that Xue Xue was cheating.

Xue Xiaoxia smiled and sat on the chair.

As soon as Qiao Qiuqin opened her mouth, her fans couldn't recognize her. Her hoarse yet magnetic voice echoed throughout the studio.

Xue Xiaoxia plucked the guitar strings, and the free and easy music accompanied Qiao Qiuqin.

The two of them worked in perfect harmony with each other and sang the song "Manjusaka" in a way that amazed the audience.

When the song ended, the audience burst into warm applause and cheers. Xue Xiaoxia and Qiao Qiuqin smiled and bowed to the audience.

This performance undoubtedly became a highlight of this episode and allowed more people to know this talented pair.

The host walked onto the stage, "Because one group cannot participate in the competition today, although we still have to vote, the 7 groups that have performed do not have to leave."

Today's rankings are displayed on the screen.

Qiao Qiuqin Xue Xiaoxia

Chu Xingyao Chu Xiangling

Ling Fei Lin Xiaoyu

Ye Fan Ye Chen

Tang Xinyi Zhang Yifeng

Zheng Yaqin Song Jiayi

"Okay, this is the ranking for this round. We can see that even though it's the third round, Xiao Xia's points are still ranked first. I want to ask the audience why you started shouting cheating when Xiao Xia came on stage just now?" The host looked at the audience, "The lady in red who shouted so loudly just now, that's you."

The girl stood up a little embarrassedly, "What I'm going to say may be a little offensive, can I say it, Xuexue?"

Xue Xiaoxia knew that he was talking about the ex-husband whose name had been lost, so she nodded indifferently.

"The first one was guitar and my ex-husband's graduation, the second one was piano and Qinqin's graduation, and this is the third one, both are great songs."

The host looked at Xue Xiaoxia and said, "I see!"

The host suddenly realized, "It seems that everyone is looking forward to Xue Xiaoxia's wonderful performance every time she takes out her musical instrument! So, what do you think of today's performance?"

The audience expressed that they were moved by Xue Xiaoxia and Qiao Qiuqin's singing and stage charm.

The host smiled and said: "Their performance is eye-catching. Next, let us look forward to them bringing more surprises in subsequent competitions!"

"Okay, the topic for the next issue is "Children's Songs". This may be the easiest topic this time. You can try to get back one point this time. Okay, we look forward to your performance in the next issue!"
