Chapter 178: Glitter
Chapter 178
The judges sitting in the front rows were most profoundly moved.
Therefore, when contestant fifteen went on stage after contestant fourteen left, Xiao Shengzhou took the opportunity to grab the bottle of Yunquan mineral water in front of him and took a sip.
As a result, when he saw contestant fifteen, he couldn\'t hold back and spit out the water with a "pffft" sound.
He had heard from another staff member named Wei Cheng that Su Xiaoqi was going to the rehearsal that afternoon and would be participating in the Top Ten Singers Competition that night. However, whenever Xiao Shengzhou saw Su Xiaoqi, she was basically wearing a little yellow outfit. He didn\'t pay attention to what she looked like. To him, she was just a girl from his horse farm working her way through school. He would see her running around the horse farm looking quite free every day, but in reality she had a lot to do. Who would pay attention to such trivial matters? As long as the girl worked hard, that was enough. The horse farm was supposed to hire a manager to handle things, but since Xiao Shengzhou was still in school, his uncle let him do it himself to gain experience from the ground up.
That was why he had to deal with students in the work-study program, but it was limited to that extent.
However, at this moment, seeing the girl who calmly took the stage, she was a girl, right? He had a program list in his hand: Su Xiaoqi, Information Management Class 1, the same person as the student ID she had given him the other day.
He didn\'t expect her to look like this.
No wonder his dog-like little uncle took notice of this little girl at first sight when he met her the other day. After he left, he even called Xiao Shengzhou to ask for her WeChat, and got mocked by him. What kind of taste did he have, going after a school girl? Of course Xiao Shengzhou wouldn\'t let his little uncle bother the school\'s students.
Xiao Shengzhou felt like his little uncle had his fill at the banquet and now fancied some plain congee and vegetables, wanting to change his palette.
But the girl in front of him was no plain congee or vegetables. As she sat on the stage adjusting the microphone, she looked up and gave a faint smile, and Xiao Shengzhou felt like the whole stage lit up. Endless romantic feelings.
Her eyes were extremely charming, naturally so charming it was incredible, yet her gaze was extremely pure, without any extra emotions.
No wonder his little uncle wasn\'t looking to change his palette. He probably recognized the truth at first sight, given all the women he\'d seen.
And Du Xinyan, the president of the music club sitting next to Xiao Shengzhou, also brightened when she saw Su Xiaoqi.
Some girls could make other girls dislike them at first sight, stirring up hostility, like Wu Xinyue earlier. Du Xinyan didn\'t like her. Those kinds of girls could make seven or eight guys sneeze just by being in society. They just had the advantage of knowing how to dress up and scheme. On campus they were more mature than others by a long shot, which was also an advantage, but not necessarily so well received in society.
Her family wasn\'t that rich. Her uncle on her father\'s side was very powerful, a bank president in Meng City. Her own parents were just ordinary workers. But she was very capable herself and her uncle doted on her a lot.
Since she was little, she had been good at currying favor. She didn\'t seem at all like a child from a worker\'s family, so Du Xinyan understood girls like Wu Xinyue very well.
But the girl in front of her now was too good-looking, with appeal across genders.
Just her looks alone, bringing her into the music club would be worthwhile. And if she could also sing decently, she would be perfect.
Du Xinyan liked Su Xiaoqi\'s looks so much that even she, as another girl, felt her heartbeat quicken, especially when Su Xiaoqi smiled. She finally understood how her roommates who were fans of celebrities felt.
And next to Du Xinyan, little diva Ding Nan was also stunned for a moment. She was going to go on stage to sing a song in the next segment, so after watching contestant fourteen and seeing the hot atmosphere, she was supporting from her aloof position. Of course, contestant fourteen and the contestants from the talent show she was on were not on the same level at all. If contestant fourteen had tried out for their show, maybe she would barely make it past the first round, but would definitely be eliminated in the second round, while Ding Nan made it through six rounds to get fifth place.
She didn\'t need to be here for a school event like the Top Ten Singers, but recently there was a vote for university students\' favorite singer, so her agent still suggested she make an appearance. Plus Enhua University had some richer second generation kids than her, just a little singer.
When contestant fifteen went on stage, she was a little distracted, planning to take a break and go on for the next act. But unexpectedly, when she saw contestant fifteen calmly walking onstage, Ding Nan suddenly recalled the feeling of seeing that contestant who always got first place go on stage during her talent show auditions. Just as easy and casual, ordinary stage outfit, dancers and music that didn\'t seem anything special, but with an extremely strong personal charisma that easily grabbed everyone\'s attention as soon as she went on stage.
Ding Nan had always felt commanded by that contestant. She felt lucky just to get fifth place.
The girl in front of her now was probably just a freshman, Ding Nan reassured herself. She must just look really good. There\'s no shortage of good-looking people in the entertainment industry. Whether they actually make it big still depends on having some luck.
On the music side, Yi Zhou directly said, "Wow, what a good-looking girl."
Vice chairman Gao Qimin also smiled.
School governor Mrs. Su said, "The future belongs to the youth."
And Li Weijin, who had fruitlessly gone to the horse farm that afternoon, suddenly felt his behavior had been extremely silly and decided not to do such silly things again.
It was none of his business that Su Xiaoqi was participating in something like the Top Ten Singers Competition. But in the end, he still got dragged over by his fox friends and dog friends. Li Taiping said Wu Xinyue was performing and they should go support her. Li Weijin definitely wouldn\'t have joined in the hubbub, but when he heard the next act was Su Xiaoqi, he reluctantly came in a hurry.
Then he saw Su Xiaoqi walking calmly onstage in a cheongsam, adjusting the microphone with her fair hand, and giving him a faint smile.
He suddenly understood why Li Taiping had reacted like an excited dog to that internet celebrity Wu Xinyue earlier, shamelessly shouting that Xinyue was the best. Now he also wanted to shout...
Every time he thought he understood Su Xiaoqi, she would reveal another new side to him.
There was the hardworking, sunny Su Xiaoqi working at the horse farm, the genius debater Su Xiaoqi in class, and now the shining, dazzling Su Xiaoqi on stage, glowing from head to toe.
Others said she was good-looking, but at this moment, he felt Su Xiaoqi was a hundred times better-looking than him.
His good looks came from various lucky backgrounds.
But Su Xiaoqi in front of him now just wore a simple cheongsam. With a faint smile, she made the whole stage brighten. His heart also lit up, with endless feelings of romantic flair, yet restrained and pure.
The gentle guitar music rose.
Xiaoqi began to sing along with the accompaniment:
"The peach leaves tip tip top, the willow leaves shade the whole sky..."
