Chapter 138

Qin Wei glanced at the lyric distribution that Liu Xin had made, hmm, all the most important lines had been taken by her, especially the first three lines. The distributions for the others were basically random.

Not only did Qin Wei find it ridiculous, but the sheet music with the lyric distribution also made Yan Jinyu laugh in disbelief. Yan Jinyu shook her head:

"I don't agree with this, let's redistribute."

Qin Wei immediately followed up by saying:

"I agree with Yan Jinyu's opinion."

Yan Jinyu looked at her for a moment, and the two couldn't help but smile wryly at each other.

Youyou also said:

"I feel like the opening lines have some difficulty, based on my understanding of senior, you may not be able to handle them."

Zhao Yan and Li Ruyi also expressed their support for Qin Wei's side.

Liu Xin was a little annoyed, Youyou usually listened to her the most, and now she even dared to oppose her!

Someone suggested:

"Why don't...we just let our skills do the talking?"

...

In the interest of fairness, Class B invited instructors Chen Chen, Gu Minghua, Daniel and Li Mai to be judges and evaluate how the lyrics should be distributed appropriately.

The four instructors gladly came, anyway they didn't have much to do at the moment, so they might as well come over and watch the drama unfold.

Liu Xin felt very strongly about getting the first three lines, she went first, and sang the first three lines.

It sounded pretty good.

"Is anyone else wants to give it a try?" Liu Xin asked. Although she didn't act overtly proud, she was quite satisfied with her own performance.

Qin Wei signaled to Youyou, and Youyou promptly raised her hand:

"Let me try."

"No accompaniment needed, I’ll accompany you on piano."

Seeing Youyou go up, Qin Wei immediately got up and sat down at the piano stool to accompany her. When she saw Youyou was ready, the music sounded.

The song "Fleeting Years" had very rich content, and the highlights were the opera and ethnic elements blended inside. The opening lines used bel canto singing technique.

So the overture was the climax of this song. If the opening was good, then there would be no worries about performing it at any time during the recital, because it would be attention-grabbing enough.

As soon as Youyou opened her mouth, she immediately crushed the previous performer.

Good bel canto singing was like a walking musical instrument, bad bel canto singing was like a tuned whistle.

There was no harm without comparison. Just from the meaningful expressions on the four instructors' faces, it was clear what the outcome was.

Taking advantage that the instructors were still here, Qin Wei suggested that they distribute the rest of the lyrics as well, this way it would be fair and just. There would be no need for the instructors to leave and have everyone fight over lines again.

Everything went smoothly. Incidentally, Gu Minghua also discussed with several instructors that Qin Wei would play the opening and interlude piano music.

She had just showcased her piano skills, and she had mastered that kind of not-too-difficult song very well.

At the beginning, Chen Chen was a little worried. After all, Qin Wei didn't have a piano foundation. But after listening just now, he was relieved as well. The goal was just to get through the target song. No one expected her to go up there and play "Flight of the Bumblebee."

The song was all settled, Gu Minghua saw the instructors off and was about to leave himself when he suddenly remembered:

"Have you guys decided on what songs to perform for your small groups?"

Liu Xin responded:

"We’ve decided, we’re singing 'Single Ladies Party'."

"Not bad, the rapping and choruses make quite an impression."

Gu Minghua said, and looked towards Qin Wei.

"We will finalize it soon."

Qin Wei answered truthfully.

There really was no need to decide on the group song too early. What they needed to practice now was the big group's song and dance. After the music instructors left for a bit, the dance teacher came.

Yan Qingzi, an cheerful dancer with great social skills who could chat with anyone.

As soon as she came in, the atmosphere of the entire practice room lightened up.

"Little Yu, take off those glasses quickly, they detract from your beauty. You don't need clear vision when dancing."

Yan Qingzi asked for Yan Jinyu's glasses and placed them on the piano cover. Then she briefly looked over all the members and said:

"Hello everyone, I'm Yan Qingzi. Many people think this is a stage name, but it's not. My surname is Yan. I was born on a sunny day, so my mom gave birth to me and named me Yan Qingzi.

I learned ethnic dance since I was little, and when I grew up I fell in love with street dance, and also dabbled in some other dance styles. If I can't teach you, that's okay too, I've treated Teacher Song Ye to a meal already, she’s willing to come over and help." The overall atmosphere was relaxed, completely sweeping away the unpleasantness brought by the lyric snatching in the morning. Everyone had been here for a while already, and quickly entered the zone with the teacher to start dance practice.

Although the atmosphere in Class B this time was not as harmonious as it was in Class D, but because everyone was working hard practicing, the learning atmosphere was still quite good. At the very least, the tight practice time left no room for people to make trouble.

...

In the evening when she returned to the dorm, the live stream activity in the villa's living room was still ongoing. Several people from Class B still had quite high popularity, so Qin Wei didn't have to go provide fan service all the time like she did in the beginning, as requested by the staff.

It just so happened that Yan Jinyu had a live stream today, so the only ones left in the room were Qin Wei and Youyou.

By now, Youyou both admired and was grateful to her senior sister. She wished she could follow Qin Wei all day. When Qin Wei spoke, she would listen carefully by the side. When Qin Wei asked her to go up against Liu Xin for the lyrics, she did so without any hesitation.

In Youyou's eyes, Qin Wei was now yyds (forever god)!

After singing all day, Qin Wei coughed twice. Youyou immediately poured her water.

"Youyou..."

"Senior sister, go ahead!"

Qin Wei rubbed her eyebrows:

"Um...Youyou, you don't have to always feel grateful to me. Really, even if President Xu brought you over, you would still have to work to earn money for him."

"I know, senior sister."

Youyou sat on the carpet, resting her cheeks in her hands looking at Qin Wei.

"I just want to do some things for my senior sister, nothing else meant by it."

"Speaking of doing things..."

Qin Wei put down the water glass and picked up her phone from the cabinet.

"I found a song, see what you think about using it for our small group performance?"

Youyou nodded again and again:

"Anything my senior sister picks is good!"

Qin Wei: "......"

Only then did Youyou come to her senses. She took the phone and watched the video.

"Every lyric touches my heart. It's just not sure if the rest of our group will agree to it."

This time Youyou answered seriously. After all, whether Yan Jinyu agrees is a difficult problem.

Qin Wei herself actually preferred to live a peaceful life.

Qin Wei glanced at the time and sighed softly, tactfully said to Youyou:

"Um...Youyou."

"Go ahead senior sister!"

"It's quite late...why don't you sleep too. I feel uneasy with you watching me all the time..."
