Chapter 158: Xu Xinyi’s Madness
"Wanna let you go,
Wanna let the hand lose its grip— but I can’t, I still can’t..."
As they performed the bridge part, the song also went to the parts where it needs a higher note. The waves below them were somehow waving a little bigger as if it was telling them how desperate they are to actually want to let go of this unrequited love that will never be back to them.
Han Suwen moved behind Qin An and put his hand to the young man’s shoulder, then he unexpectedly slowly slid his palm to Qin An’s neck— spreading his fingers slightly to clasp the young man’s neck.
Afterwards, they seemed to hear a sudden beating of a heart loudly beside their ears making them hold their breath subconsciously. The way how Han Suwen clasps the young man’s neck closely to him feels like the heart beating that they heard was Qin An’s heart.
It was racing loudly as if it calls the desperate shouts of wanting to unleash all the love until it will be exhausted.
"Until I open my eyes one day
To see your heart become one with another..."
This was the time when Qin An’s original position came and he was replaced by Bai Yue. the part wherein the unrequited love that’s been hopelessly waiting finally gives up after seeing the one they love loves another one.
As if it was the last string that snapped.
And there was no love to show anymore.
Some trainees felt this intense performance and couldn’t help but feel amazed yet at the same time worried for their team.
Actually, since this round of competition doesn’t require them to fight for the same theme, it was much more relief to others because this could avoid comparison directly. Unlike in the past , the mentors directly pointed their contrast and some trainees would always feel bad especially when the mentors would tell praises on some parts that they also did but never received them.
However, just watching them interpret the same song this way was too different and unique, they just couldn’t stop themselves from getting worried.
... Not until later, when Bai Yue officially entered.
If it was the original Bai Ling, this performance would actually be perfect. Bai Ling is really talented actually. He was very skilled as an idol and thus was admired by many. As for Bai Yue, he has no experience. Even if he tried hard to be Bai Ling, it was not enough for just some short periods.
Therefore, it was not the members of the team whom everyone expected to make mistakes but the guests that were actually supposed to help the team.
"??!!" Of course this made the crowd bewildered and confused. What is Bai Yue doing?! Why does he seem to be the rookie trainee instead?!
Is he nuts to actually perform like this and ruin their team?!
"The way you had your love in your own eyes
It made me still and realized—" freёwebnoѵel.com
"Stop!"
The song was abruptly stopped when Xu Xinyi stood up from her seat and shouted to stop the whole shoot.
Her eyes shoot glares at Bai Yue and she looks extremely angry at this moment.
"You!" She angrily pointed at Bai Yue. "What are you doing?!"
Silence filled the entire venue except for her. The background and other things that were conveyed from the team’s mental power disappeared and the place was back to the original set-up of the venue.
Bai Yue was startled at first and stood up straight, feeling fear and anxiety creeping inside his body. He looks at the crowd and notices the eyes of everyone on him.
"You are the guest invited here and your task is to help your group! Not to destroy nor even give me this shitty performance!" Xu Xinyi couldn’t help but feel enraged. As someone who can see their practice behind the scenes, she knows the hard work that every trainee puts up to improve harder and impress the audience so they can debut.
She knew the challenges that they faced would always arise due to the pressure and anxiety inside them. There will be conflicts and misunderstanding just like what she saw in this group. At first, she was frustrated by the fact that Han Suwen couldn’t even stand up for his members nor Qin An himself didn’t even protect his right.
But since that was their decision, they never interfered about what they wanted to do. Until she saw the great changes one day when Bai Yue decided to stop being a mess. It was hard work especially for Han Suwen and Qin An who had to be connected with each other.
Doing close contact was even harder and how they would express the song was the hardest. But as time passed by, she saw their enlightenment and the willingness to open themselves in order to move forward.
Han Suwen and Qin An gradually became close and allowed themselves to immerse themselves in the song which made her feel grateful. This means about their worth to advance forward and never stuck themselves in a single place.
Thus, Xu Xinyi was looking forward to their performance today.
Initially, everything was okay. She was surprised and delighted by what she saw. Even though she could still see some parts they’re lacking, they improved so that she could even ignore those minor mistakes. For her, their performance was enough to choose them as the winner.
Not until Bai Yue came.
All the hard work they gave to polish this perfectly crumbled like that. And what’s even more frustrating was that Bai Yue was the guest in the first place. He was supposed to give the group an assurance that their performance will be alright and inspire them to be like them as a competent idol.
And even though she dislikes Bai Yue’s white lotus schemes, she stayed patient because she believed that the young man was skilled. He could have helped the group and even brought some heat since he was popular. Maybe that will even make the audience notice the trainees and vote for them in the future, right?
But what is this?! Why is Bai Yue destroying the team?!
Xu Xinyi hated people like him.
Who builds other’s hopes and destroys them as if it was just a toy they can discard with— she never wants to meet people like them.
But he was right here in front of her, and even dared to shamelessly scheme on her trainees!
"You! If you want to shame yourself then leave here and fix your dirty mess outside!" Xu Xinyi continues to shout her anger to the pale young man. She doesn’t care that she will be seen as a villain again and just wants to let these words out.
As Xu Xinyi continued shouting, the atmosphere engulfed the whole place became colder and depressing. The trainees became too worried for this round of competition and what will happen after this mess. They also looked at Bai Yue with frustration. They also never expect that the Senior that they wished to have in their group would do this.
He knew that this is too important to them, so why?! And from the looks of his teammates earlier, it was obvious that they didn’t know Bai Yue would destroy the performance.
Now, it was not just theirs but all of them who were implicated in his mess.
On the other hand, Bai Yue trembled in fear as he looked at the familiar disgust and anger on the crowd’s eyes.
The appreciation that he had always seen turned into that familiar emotion that he always saw in the eyes of his mother.
It was as if he went back to the past and became the self that brought him too much pain until now.
They became like her— who couldn’t accept him and will always treat him as a failure.
Was this because he was not Bai Ling?
If the person in front of them is Bai Ling, they’ll be happy, right? Because he was too talented unlike him who was just a trashed.
Just like what had always been.
Bai Yue trembles even more that he didn’t notice a group of men wearing police uniform entering the venue.
It was not until he felt a tap on his shoulder that he came back to his senses. He turned and met Qin An’s eyes directly looking at him.
When the young man signaled him to a direction, only did he also remember everything that’s been planned to happen.
That’s right. He was here to give himself justice.
This is the real reason why he possessed Bai Ling’s body, so why bother taking them into heart? Was what he did the right thing, right? He was supposed to destroy Bai Ling’s reputation and with this mess, will that make his plan half a success?
He succeeded in making them hate him— Bai Ling.
So why care?
Bai Yue forced himself to ignore those eyes and spotted Qian Jin on the corner. He nods at him as a signal to start the live confession before he looks at the police men.
The police walk towards him and facing the shock in everyone’s eyes, the police state his reasons for coming here.
"Mr. Bai, we are here to arrest you for the sin you’ve committed."
Bai Yue acted scared and took a step back slightly. "What crime?"
"For murder."
As he heard the gasp and saw the camera on him, Bai Yue held himself tight.
It’s finally here.
