The day of the second performance finally arrived amidst the anticipation of countless netizens.
The envious fans finally managed to snag tickets to the event!
[Little Lemon, our lemon army is here!]
[The production team is good at this; keep it up and distribute more tickets! Don't try to save us money!]
[Go, grapes! Little Bodhi and Little Lemon's first collaboration stage! Don't miss it!]
...
Backstage in the dressing room, Yu Jianing's makeup artist was still as talkative as ever, but perhaps considering the nature of her performance, she needed to get into character.
This time he didn't say anything more, gave Xiao Ning a very distressed makeup look, then packed his things and left.
"You don't talk much, that's not like you." Fu Yachi was fiddling with her phone in the hallway, seemingly looking at something.
"She has a performance... I'll talk to her after that." Zhao Xuanran lowered his eyes, looking just like a caring older brother to his younger sister.
"It's up to you, but one thing is certain: Yu Jianing's opinion should be the priority. If she doesn't want to, you can't force her."
"This is our family matter."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Ran frowned slightly, clearly displeased, but dared not show it.
"You think I'm meddling too much?" Ya Chi stopped what she was doing, looking at him with a hint of mockery.
"Whether Yu Jianing debuts or not, Yanfeng Entertainment has already signed her."
"Also, in front of me... don't pretend to be a good older brother, it makes me feel nauseous."
"You're in such a hurry to find her, isn't it all for your Zhao family's inheritance rights?"
“You…” Zhao Xuanran clenched his fists angrily after his little scheme was exposed, but Fu Yachi completely ignored him.
"How the Zhao family fights is your business, but don't overstep your bounds, or I might chop you up one day if I'm in a bad mood."
With that, Xiao Chi smiled slightly at him, then turned and left.
It took Xuan Ran a while to regain her composure and prevent herself from losing control.
"The Fu family..."
·
The performance has already begun, and just as Zhao Mingmeng predicted, they drew the first turn to perform.
After silently encouraging themselves, the ten of them stepped onto the stage, dressed in simple long dresses, five in black and five in white.
"Disheveled hair, many scars, if you don't recognize me..."
A clean, slightly coquettish voice rang out as Su Youbai sang softly, followed by Zhao Mingmeng's next line.
The other eight people were surrounding them, doing something unknown.
Bullet comments—
Oh...did they not rehearse well enough?
Can anyone tell me what those eight people are doing? Are they just standing there like statues?
Let's wait and see. Her singing was so clean in the early stages, so she'll probably power up her performance in the mid-to-late stages.
...
The group sang one line at a time, the song gradually becoming more subdued...
But was it just subdued? There were absolutely no amazing moments? The only redeeming quality was their dance near the end.
Bullet comments—
Well... it's alright, nothing special overall, but I feel like something's missing.
[Yeah, it feels like a watered-down version? I just... I don't understand why they're wearing black and white dresses? If we follow their design, I feel all white would be better?]
[Does the person upstairs have any taste? Isn't this how the song should be sung? White symbolizes an innocent little girl, black symbolizes something polluted, what a perfect stage!]
The final dance was a pent-up outburst, elevating the entire performance; it was absolutely the best show I've ever seen!
【？？？】
...
Yu Jianing almost burst out laughing after watching the Purple Team's performance. "You can't even copy it properly, what else can you do?"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Bai Puti looked at Jia Ning, who suddenly started laughing, somewhat bewildered.
She didn't even realize that Zhao Mingmeng's stage performance was copied from theirs.
"It's nothing, just thought of something funny~"
Xiao Ning reached out and straightened the rope that had slipped off her shoulder, then looked at the rest of her teammates and said:
"Just follow my design and don't make any mistakes."
"Let's give Team Purple a surprise!"
Everyone nodded and took their respective lighting devices.
Step onto the stage—
All the lights were turned off, and the scene was pitch black.
The staff carried a large curtain onto the stage.
Suddenly, the sound of a music box started playing in the background...
The people at the scene were still a bit stunned.
Something's off about this piece of music.
Immediately afterwards, a faint white light shone on the curtain, and a person's shadow appeared on it!
It looks like she's holding a small rabbit doll in her arms?
Bullet comments—
[Holy crap! This is so weird! I feel like Xiao Ning is going to kill me!]
[Protect yourself with bullet comments! Just kidding!]
...
"Little bunny, be good..."
From somewhere, Yu Jianing's somewhat hoarse voice came through.
The music box also stopped spinning while she was singing.
Bai Puti stood up in a panic behind the curtain, but Xiao Ning's singing stopped again...
The music box is back to normal...
"Open the door..."
Just as she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, that hoarse and cold voice rang out again!
Suddenly, the shadows of several hands appeared on the curtain!
Bai Puti turned around while holding the rabbit toy, and everything disappeared again!
Bullet comments—
[Holy crap! What is this?! How could my childhood nursery rhymes be so terrifying?!]
[I got goosebumps all over! Can anyone tell me what song she was performing?! I've completely forgotten!]
...
"Open it quickly..." Yu Jianing sang slowly, her tone seemingly filled with joy, as the hand shadows on the screen drew closer and closer to Bai Puti.
