"Hmph, anyway, he's already embarrassed me enough, one more won't make a difference."

"It's a good opportunity to let outsiders judge him and see just how outstanding he is. Let's put it out in front of everyone!"

Guo Gang glanced at the few onlookers watching the commotion not far away and snorted coldly.

Among the crowd of onlookers were several blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigners.

Most of these people are staff members of foreign embassies.

That being said...

Guo Gang felt a pang of desolation in his heart.

That's good now.

The family scandal has really gone viral, even reaching the ears of foreigners.

It was clear that my master was determined to listen to Guo Dalin's new songs here.

Zhang Haomiao had no choice but to turn on the speakerphone on his phone.

"Turn the volume up!"

Guo Gang reminded him expressionlessly.

Ding ding dong...

The music from "The Storyteller," which Guo Dalin had just recorded and uploaded, came from his phone.

A traditional percussion and string music immediately filled the backstage area.

The opera-style music began.

A look of surprise appeared on the faces of Yan He, Zhang Leiyun, and the others.

This song.

It's not pop music?

It seems to be music in the style of traditional folk art?

And they are very familiar with many musical instruments.

Hearing this unusual background music style.

Yu Qian, who had initially felt a little nervous for Guo Dalin, couldn't help but chuckle: "Hey, this is interesting."

"The teahouses along the roadside were filled with scattered figures."

Two or three shouts came from the street.

"Striking a fan and striking the table with a gavel in front of others"

"Ladies and gentlemen, please listen carefully to my explanation..."

Then, Guo Dalin's familiar yet slightly changed voice rang out, accompanied by the sound of gongs and drums.

It gives off an air of powerful yet slightly sarcastic street performer.

The singing style, reminiscent of traditional folk arts, was immediately apparent.

Guo Gang, who was about to sneer at his good-for-nothing son, suddenly widened his eyes.

They stood frozen in place.

A figure in the teahouse, strikingly slapping the table…

Isn't this the style of traditional storytelling...?

And there's something off about the singing.

When did my son develop such a beautiful singing voice?

The song's content is completely different from traditional pop music.

Furthermore, it is not in the same category as the traditional Chinese style music that Wang Yueheng has always been good at.

It's more like taking an unconventional approach.

A unique musical collection that blends rock and traditional Chinese folk arts.

Guo Gang, who was originally looking for an opportunity to lash out, suddenly calmed down again.

Amidst my doubts.

I couldn't help but want to hear the rest of the song.

Immediately afterwards, a fast-paced rap by Guo Dalin continued.

"This land, weathered by time, a river of rivers and mountains"

"The beauty of swords and shadows has graced countless legends."

"Behold his eloquent words and the dust on his clothes."

"It turns out he was just a storyteller from the martial arts world..."

This passage is the first one to appear.

Guo Gang's heart skipped a beat again.

This song was written by Wang Yueheng for his son, Guo Dalin.

But these lyrics seem to describe Guo Gang himself.

He co-founded the Deyun Society in the 1990s.

He relied solely on his mouth, traveling tirelessly like a storyteller, desperately performing crosstalk to make a living.

Having weathered wind, frost, rain, and dew.

I've seen countless sword fights and bloodshed in the martial arts world.

I've been taught a lesson by society, leaving me battered and bruised; I've been driven mad and left speechless with grief...

Guo Gang couldn't help but frown.

He felt that this song was not only a work by Guo Dalin that marked his departure from the world of crosstalk.

It reads more like a confessional description.

It seems that Guo Dalin has hidden his own feelings and thoughts in the song.

"oh…"

"Amazing!"...

The group was initially tired and exhausted from the performance all night.

And so it came with Guo Dalin's amazing comeback rap.

As if stimulated by something, I suddenly became clear-headed and excited.

I was instantly intrigued by this song, "The Storyteller."
