#145 - Chapter 145 Flower God
“Qi Jing, you're famous!”
In the evening, Qi Jing had just returned to the dormitory when Yan Cheng picked up his phone and said to him:
“Your singing video has been posted on the school forum, and it's super popular.
What are your thoughts on this, Prince of Love Songs?”
Yan Cheng held his phone like a microphone and extended it to Qi Jing's mouth.
“I was too impulsive today. I shouldn't have sung.”
Seeing a freshman belting out a high-pitched tenor on the stage, Qi Jing's mind went blank, and he decided to sing.
Especially when he said he would sing a song after every competition, he had no choice but to sing, not even a chance to regret it.
“People fear fame like pigs fear getting fat. I feel like too much fame isn't a good thing.”
Yan Cheng pointed at himself and said:
“Since you're afraid of fame, I'll give you an idea.
Take out your little song library and let me sing. I'm not afraid of fame. Once I become popular, they'll slowly forget about you. Isn't that a great idea?”
Song Jiang interjected:
“It's not me trying to put you down, but with your singing skills, what can you sing besides the national anthem? You can't even sing 'Two Tigers' without going off-key. You want to be famous? No way.”
“Is it really that bad? I think I sing pretty well.”
Every time Yan Cheng sings, he feels like he's perfectly in tune with the original singer, even better than them.
Song Jiang said:
“What you hear is completely different from what we hear. Bone conduction and air conduction are very different.”
“Really? I don't believe it.”
Don't believe in bad things; that's Yan Cheng's first rule of happiness.
Qi Jing said:
“Actually, it's okay. After all, if I want to be a champion, fame is inevitable.”
“Those few finalists look pretty strong. Can you do it?” Yan Cheng carefully studied their previous battles and felt like he couldn't beat any of them.
Qi Jing said:
“I should be able to. At most, they can only tie with me because they can't hit me at all.”
“That's true. You can dodge bullets within five meters. It's really hard for them to hit you.
However, Tao Xin from the Support Division seems to have a mind control ability that ignores distance. As long as she sees you, she can activate it. Can you dodge that?”
“Then she has to have the chance to see me.”
If “seeing” is the condition for her to activate her ability, then wouldn't it be enough to block it with a piece of wood?
“Okay, then we wish you success.
Since you don't have anything to prepare for this final, come play games with us.” Yan Cheng opened the game on his phone.
“All you do every day is play games! Can't you draw more? Can't you exercise more?”
Qi Jing took out his phone and opened the game: “But since you sincerely invited me, I will magnanimously carry you.”
Yan Cheng said:
“I just finished drawing. As for exercise, I'll talk about it before going to bed tonight.”
Song Jiang said:
“You'll just say 'tomorrow' again tonight.”
“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”
“Log in!”
......
The next day.
Qi Jing returned to the arena under the leadership of his team teacher, Yu Xian.
Fortunately, he used self-driving this time, so they didn't feel nauseous.
Yesterday, there were nine people in this car, but today there are only four.
Only he and Li Luoluo made it to the finals, but those who failed in the semi-finals can also come, but only Xiong Er came.
The remaining one was, of course, Tan Zuoyin. Yu Xian was happy for Qi Jing to bring his girlfriend along. He chatted with Qi Jing for a long time in the car.
Sitting in the exclusive audience seat in the first row, Qi Jing asked: “Xiong Er, don't you sleep in? Why are you here so early?”
Xiong Er scratched his head and said: “I want to see how you won against that Fan Tang. I was flicked too hard by her yesterday.”
Hey, can't you be a little quieter? Fan Tang is sitting two seats to your right. Your loud voice is very penetrating.
Fortunately, she didn't turn her head. She probably didn't hear it.
“Keep it low-key, keep it low-key.”
Qi Jing now firmly remembers the low-key principle. If he can avoid being arrogant, he will.
Xiong Er saw Qi Jing giving him a look, turned his head to look at Fan Tang, and said softly:
“When did she sit there? Scared me.”
Xiong Er felt a little pain in his face whenever he saw her. He used too much force yesterday.
“She was there before we arrived. You just didn't see her.”
Qi Jing could tell that Xiong Er seemed to have a psychological shadow of her. His face twitched slightly when he mentioned her.
Who would have thought that this 1.9-meter tall strong man would be afraid of a 1.6-meter short girl.
“By the way, are your girlfriend and that Li Luoluo friends?”
Qi Jing followed Xiong Er's gaze and saw Tan Zuoyin and Li Luoluo chatting quietly in a seat where no one was around.
“No, they just met today.”
When they were on the bus just now, Tan Zuoyin said that she heard the girl's indifference and desire in her heart, so she left Qi Jing and went to chat with her.
Until now, they haven't separated.
“Oh.” Xiong Er nodded.
Suddenly, the lights in the arena began to flicker, and beams of soft light swept across Qi Jing's faces.
At the same time, chrysanthemums began to fall from the sky, slowly drifting down.
“It's the Pretty Boy, the Pretty Boy is here!”
“Wow!!!”
“I didn't expect the Pretty Boy to come too. This ticket is worth it!”
“Why would he come here to sing in a competition?”
“Who cares? I want an autograph! I want a photo!”
“This is the first time I've heard him sing live!”
Listening to the excited words of the others, Qi Jing was puzzled.
He asked Xiong Er:
“How do they know the Pretty Boy is coming?”
Xiong Er widened his eyes: “You don't even know that? These falling flowers are the Pretty Boy's exclusive entrance ceremony.”
As he spoke, he took out one of the flowers he had just picked up and handed it to Qi Jing:
“These flowers are created by his wife, the 'Flower Goddess,' using her ability. Eating them can cure diseases, strengthen the body if you're not sick, and can also be used to make tea.”
“Flower Goddess?”
“That's right. His wife's ability is called 'Twelve Flower Gods.' January plum blossom, February apricot blossom, March pear blossom, April peony, May pomegranate, June lotus, July begonia, August osmanthus, September chrysanthemum, October hibiscus, November camellia, December daffodil.
Today is September, so the falling flowers are chrysanthemums.”
I didn't expect there to be this kind of ability that changes according to the month.
This was the first time Qi Jing had heard information about the [Pretty Boy]'s wife. He had only learned about the songs [Pretty Boy] sang before, but he had never been to his concert.
The main reason is that singing is only a small part of [Pretty Boy]'s business. He spends most of his time acting and doing public service.
Moreover, the “Flower Goddess” rarely appears. [Pretty Boy] was already married when he first debuted. At that time, he was not yet the world's number one entertainer. He didn't want those crazy and stupid fans to scold her online, so he rarely let her appear. He only said that he was married but didn't say who his wife was.
Later, he slowly became one of the world's top singers and announced her information. It was also at the opening ceremony of the globally watched Global Ability Competition that the “Flower Goddess” joined hands with [Pretty Boy] to perform a beautiful performance. That was the first time she appeared in front of the public.
After that, she only appeared at the opening and closing of [Pretty Boy]'s singing performances on stage.
