Chapter 138 Accelerated Heartbeat
At this point, the pilot episode and the first half of the first episode have all been broadcast.
The video ends with the guests expressing their amazement at Bian Ji.
Please, don't get stuck here!
The production team has been much more conscientious this time; it's already good enough that they didn't cut it off when "Ji" came on stage.
[Thankfully, I got to see "Ji's" debut performance, and I left satisfied.]
[Thankfully, it's double updates every week now! Hurry up and get to tomorrow!]
[Tomorrow's broadcast will likely not feature any stage performances; it will probably consist of song selection segments and everyday life footage.]
I'll buy individual stocks first, and then I'll hold on until the end!
Without a doubt, once today's program airs, various related terms will inevitably top the trending searches, especially those about Bian Ji.
On her way back to the dormitory with her computer, Lu Yinzhao saw Bian Ji and "Ji" already at the top of the list.
Lu Yinzhao didn't rush to click in. He could roughly guess the shock of the netizens, which he had anticipated before the show even aired.
Once inside the dorm room, he put his laptop bag on the table, grabbed his pajamas, and went to wash up.
Lying on the upper bunk, Song Shuye looked at the busy figures below, hesitant to speak.
Lu Yinzhao also noticed the other person's gaze. "What's wrong?"
Song Shuye opened his mouth but didn't say anything. Finally, he said, "Go wash up first, we'll talk later."
"Oh." Lu Yinzhao didn't care about that and went to the bathroom in a good mood.
"What's wrong, Yezi? This shy and hesitant behavior isn't like you at all," Xu Zishi asked from the other end of the upper bunk.
“Yeah, what do you want to say to Xiaolu? Can’t you say it to us?” Jiang Yi chimed in.
"It's not impossible... it's just that I think I know who Lu Yinzhao's family is in the entertainment industry." Song Shuye said with a complicated expression.
"Ah? Then...then you'd better not say it, I'm afraid Xiaolu will mind," Jiang Yi said.
“Shut up and pretend you don’t know,” Xu Zishi said, repeating the same thing.
"That's why I didn't say anything." Song Shuye pouted.
But everyone knows him; this feeling of having gossip right in front of him but not being able to ask about it makes him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Not long after, Lu Yinzhao emerged with wet hair, and was watched cautiously by the three of them.
Lu Yinzhao couldn't even blow-dry her hair properly before saying helplessly, "Ask whatever you want to ask."
All three shook their heads in unison.
Lu Yinzhao couldn't help but laugh. "Are you sure you don't want to ask? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You guys were talking so loudly outside, did you think I couldn't hear you at all in the bathroom?"
The bathroom door in this dormitory isn't soundproof, and the space is so small that anything you say will be overheard.
Upon hearing Lu Yinzhao's words, Song Shuye became extremely anxious and quickly raised his hand like a primary school student, saying, "Lu Yinzhao, I have a question!"
Lu Yinzhao combed his hair and answered.
"Today when I was watching 'The Voice Stage,' I noticed a guest who looked familiar. I wanted to ask, isn't he the brother who had dinner with you that time and got drunk...?"
Lu Yinzhao thought to himself, "This kid has a really strong ability to observe."
I only met her once, but I remembered her. And she was without makeup and stage makeup at the time.
Lu Yinzhao pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"Is he the one who talked to you on the phone for an hour before?" Song Shuye asked excitedly.
"..." There's no one hour! What kind of description is that!
Lu Yinzhao nodded, "Yes, didn't you see the note?"
So the person who called with the contact name "Brother Aji" really is...
Song Shuye slapped his thigh, hurting himself, and cried out in pain, "Although I already had a guess in my heart, I only dared to completely believe it after hearing you say it yourself, that your brother is actually the famous 'Ji'!"
Xu Zishi and Jiang Yi were also taken aback. "What?!"
The show "The Voice of China" is generating a lot of buzz tonight. Even though they don't watch variety shows much, they still see related information on various social media platforms.
It was inevitable that they would also learn some news about Bian Ji.
After they finished asking their questions, Lu Yinzhao turned on the hairdryer and started drying her hair.
Each dormitory at Huaxing University is equipped with a dedicated low-power hair dryer, which is quite convenient as it eliminates the need to go downstairs to use the public power outlets.
Because of its low power, the air it blows out is naturally not very strong.
The buzzing of the fan couldn't drown out the babbling of the three roommates; it was a massive atavism scene.
"Is Xiaolu's brother really that awesome? I heard his songs back in junior high!" Jiang Yi said.
"He also sang the theme song for the period drama I like!" Xu Zishi said.
"So you understand how much I was holding it in just now? Such an amazing, talented singer, and his younger brother is actually in our dorm. It feels unreal to me." Song Shuye started talking again, spitting as he spoke.
Lu Yinzhao expressed his strong agreement with Song Shuye's use of the word "genius".
The eyes of the masses are discerning, and Bian Ji's talent has already won people's hearts without their realizing it.
After drying their hair, Song Shuye and the others began to swear an oath to Lu Yinzhao again.
"Lu Yinzhao, I guarantee that only the people in our dorm will know about this, and we will absolutely not tell anyone else."
"I understand, I trust you all." Lu Yinzhao had a good grasp of her roommates' personalities.
Although Song Shuye loves to listen to gossip and rumors, he is by no means the kind of person who would spread them carelessly, especially when it involves his friends.
He was increasingly finding Lu Yinzhao's family background unfathomable.
Previously, we only knew that Lu Yinzhao had family members working in the entertainment industry, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything.
But after Ji's identity was exposed, he vaguely glimpsed more unusual things.
Or perhaps it's because Lu Yinzhao is usually too low-key at school, and doesn't wear the designer brands they are familiar with.
Maybe it was custom-made? Song Shuye became more and more alarmed as he thought about it.
It seems they've befriended a real rich young master.
Completely unaware of what Song Shuye and the others were imagining, Lu Yinzhao climbed into bed and lay down before starting to look at the comments on the internet today.
Four out of the top five trending search terms are related to "border palpitations".
#Ji makes her first public appearance#
#Elia frankly admits she participated in the show for the sake of "heart palpitations"#
#Bian Ji's debut stage performance of "The Coming Rain"#
#《天声大stage》return season#
#Only the edge is exerting its full strength#
...
[I was wondering why all my girlfriends, who don't usually watch this show, were watching it today; turns out there's such an incredibly handsome guy on it.]
I really didn't expect "Ji" to participate in this program, it's such a pleasant surprise!
[His violin performance was absolutely electrifying! His chemistry with the stage was flawless!]
I hereby declare Bian Ji my new favorite player this season.
With his talent, he would have been even more popular if he had participated in the show earlier.
It's not too late to join now. He said he wanted to finish his studies first, which is really endearing. I admire his clear plan for his life; he's not doing anything for fame.
[Agreed! He seems like a very rational person, knowing what he should be doing at each stage. I think it's precisely because of his continuous learning and exploration of music that he was able to amaze the audience when he took to the stage this year!]
Everything happens for a reason. He started releasing EPs at 16, which in itself demonstrates his musical talent.
Those who can get into the Royal Academy of Music in Country Y already far surpass a bunch of singers who started out without formal training, okay?
I suspect you're subtly criticizing someone; watch out, their fans might retaliate.
[So what if they call? What I said is the truth. Take today's program as an example. Can't everyone see who prepared the stage seriously and who did a sloppy job?]
[That's true. How could someone who truly loves music not take the stage seriously? I just saw some fans from other groups saying that Bian Ji is too competitive.]
[I just chuckled. If Bian Ji were really as bad as they say, he could have started marketing himself eight years ago. Not everyone is like their idol, praising a random catchy song for a whole year.]
Besides, this is a competitive program, not some slow-paced lifestyle variety show like "The Voice of China." If you don't have a competitive spirit, you might as well not come at all!
[I love watching the guests take it all seriously and compete; that's what makes it interesting! Don't let me, Brother Ji, do all the work!]
There were various opinions about the issue online, and Lu Yinzhao saw that most people were praising Bian Ji and there were no extreme comments, so he left the comment section.
He then sent a message to Bian Ji.
【Zhao Zhao】: Your first stage performance was amazing! Looking forward to your next song performance.
[Zhao Zhao]: [Little Zhao Zhao holding her face in her hands jpg.]
The other party replied quickly.
[Bian Ji]: You finished watching it so quickly?
[Zhao Zhao]: Yes, I said I would watch the show when it started, and I didn't fast forward at all.
[Bian Ji]: I just came out of the recording studio and haven't had time to watch it yet.
Lu Yinzhao knew that Bian Ji had started preparing a new song again. This person still had time to create during the recording of the show, which was really too ruthless.
Lu Yinzhao raised his hands and feet in worship.
He didn't want to disturb Bian Ji's rest time, since the other party already had very little time to rest, and it was already very late for him to finish work at this time.
But he still had one last question to ask.
[Zhao Zhao]: Is the "important person" you mentioned on the show me?
Lu Yinzhao was afraid that the outcome might not be what he expected, and that he would be making a mistake, so he still wanted to know the answer clearly.
[Bian Ji]: They even cut this out?
Bian Ji hadn't watched the program, so naturally he didn't know about this content.
He briefly recalled what he had said on the show before, and then sent a voice message.
[Bian Ji]: "Who else could it be but you? Lu Yinzhao, I can make anything you want to see happen."
On the bed in the dormitory.
Lu Yinzhao covered the phone with her hand, clutching her pounding heart.
His body is acting more and more strangely. Why does his heart beat faster when he hears just a normal voice message?
It must be because I've been staying up too late lately that I'm experiencing heart palpitations.
Or perhaps it's because Bian Ji has become a star and his charm has grown so much that even someone like him, who has watched him since childhood, can't resist him.
I was genuinely blown away by Bian Ji's handsomeness today.
The person on stage who captivated everyone's attention made Lu Yinzhao truly realize that his so-called "star-making game" had completely come true.
A shining new star in the music scene is rising.
This is just the beginning...
