[BL] Debut in Interstellar After Retiring as Grim Reaper-Chapter 119: Scheme

Chapter 119: Scheme

When Qin An’s team went to their practice room and they watched the example performance and heard the song, the whole room went into a rather embarrassing silence.

The song for Water is entitled ’Waves’. At first from the title, they thought it was just about a song that focused on life based on the given lyrics but when they watched and heard the example performance, all of them were a bit speechless.

It’s really a song about letting go. However, the story and the performance has a touch of romance, specifically an unrequited love.

How are they supposed to do it? Some trainees remembered the words that Xu Xinyi gave to the first group performances and they felt shivers down their spine.

They definitely don’t want that to happen!

What’s even more they are worried about is a certain member.

Qin An.

He is obviously someone who does not have experienced anything about romance! How will they expect him to perform like someone who is heartbroken?!

Qin An is clearly not fitted to this theme!

They looked at each other and felt their future was black. Fortunately, before they could think that this group would worsen, the door opened and a smiling Bai Yue appeared in front of them.

"Hi, everyone!"

"!!!"

The trainees’ eyes widen and they quickly stand straight and look at the young man with excitement. This is Bai Yue! He is the best in everything! And if he’s here, does that mean he will perform with them?! Then that would even be more wonderful! They are safe!

"S-Senior, it’s nice meeting you!" The trainees were quick to get closer to him albeit their shy faces.

"Senior, I am really your fan!"

"Really? Thank you." Bai Yue sweetly answered. His face remains radiant as if he was greeting everyone with high spirits just like he had always been in front of others. He even manages to say comforting words to some trainees who are shy to greet him so the trainees look at him with more admiration.

On the other hand, Han Suwen and Qin An didn’t join their conversation and stayed silent on the side. It was only after the group finished talking for a few minutes already that Bai Yue seemed to notice them.

The latter looks at them and smiles sweetly again.

"Hi," He stretched his hand towards Han Suwen. "Captain Han, hello. I’ve heard about you. You are really good." Bai Yue compliments him.

Han Suwen also revealed a smile on his face and held the young man’s hand. He was polite and wasn’t too cheerful unlike others but it’s not a bad way of greeting a senior.

"It’s a pleasure to meet you, Senior. I hope to work with you well." Han Suwen said and the latter nodded and turned his head to the last trainee inside this room, Qin An.

Bai Yue’s eyes flash. This young man really lives up to the expectation of what he heard outside saying he’s too good-looking. It was even better than just looking through the virtual data even though the high technology in this era can replicate anything like real ones.

It’s definitely different up close.

This only made him smile wider as he also stretched his hand as a greeting.

"Qin An, right? I was looking forward to meeting you." Bai Yue slightly tilted his head. "I also saw your performance of one of my songs. You did very great." He praises as if he was really complimenting but only he himself knows that just these words could make the matters outside blown up again, bringing much higher attention to their comparison video for which obviously he succeeds when this scene was posted on the Starnet, gathering enough black fans to Qin An.

And besides, he believes that he will never be fit for his songs.

Thus, Bai Yue decided to choose him as his teammate.

That’s right. Before going there, he already met the mentors and the other guests in this competition to decide who’s group they would lead to perform. Bai Yue specifically chose this theme to fit in his image and of course, Qin An.

At first, he also wanted to recruit He Yan in his group so he could have more excuses to get closer but as he thought about it, he decided not to. He Yan doesn’t quite fit this theme. If he were too obvious in seeking favor, that would only backfire.

Anyway, he has many opportunities inside the camp so it’ll be alright.

When he chose Qin An, some guests also tried to stop him. They all knew Qin An is not suitable for this kind of song. Just based on his temperament and character, he was not a melancholic young man who can act broken in front of everyone. Qin An was never even someone who expresses his emotions well, so how could he empathize with the song and perform it well?

But Bai Yue insisted that he wants to help him, especially of what happened outside. If he could help Qin An express himself more, wouldn’t that help him not just on his abilities but will also lessen those malicious people outside? Of course this risk is a double-edged sword. If Qin An will succeed, his future will be boundless and he will have the greatest opportunity to debut.

If he would not, just how much backlash he will face, only they themselves know.

At the end, the mentors voted and unexpectedly, it was Lin Yu and Pei Roujin who voted yes.

When he saw them raise their hands, he knew half of his plans had already succeeded.

And now he’s standing in front of the young man and personally sees him, a faint sense of envy and jealousy enveloping his heart. He knew that if he let this young man debut in the future, he would be doomed.

Bai Yue hides his thoughts well and remains in his persona. "Well, have you already watched the example performance?" He asked even if he knew they already had.

And as expected, they saw some members’ faces turn green and they looked extremely worried.

"Senior, I think it’s really hard to perform." A trainee confesses and others also agree.

Bai Yue nods and looks at Han Suwen."Does the Captain have something on his mind?"

Han Suwen looks at them. "Waves is a song about the farewell of an unrequited love. It described how the person’s love is like a wave that will never stop even when they let go, right?"

Bai Yue nods. "Yes, then what plans do you want to do?"

"I want to rearrange the dance concept." Han Suwen directly stated his bold plans to them. Since they have eight members, he thought about partnering them in some parts of the song to act like the two people involved in the song.

Bai Yue smiles. "Partnering? I think it’s great. Then, who will be my partner?"

Han Suwen was about to explain what he had planned about that for Bai Yue, since he is a guest, even if he will also have parts through the song, the trainees have much more important roles than him so they will just give him a special presentation to the show, but just as he opened his mouth, some excited trainees couldn’t help but intervenes.

"S-Senior, what do you think about me?"

"I-I can also do that." Then other trainees begin raising their hands while looking eagerly at the young man.

"Captain, should the Senior pick his partner first, right? Then what about just letting us pick our partner too so it’ll be comfortable?" A trainee suggested and before he could even agree, the trainees just began pairing themselves.

And since they have eight members, four pairs could have equally divided but since Bai Yue already picks a member and so as others, one member doesn’t have a partner.

That is Qin An.
