Chapter 1546 The Return of Migo
“Just like that,
The light rain in the gray sky.
Stopping and starting,
Silently soaking the earth…”
As Anqingyu’s clear singing voice rose, the dim LED screen behind him suddenly brightened, countless flying leaves forming the background, adorning the song.
The melodious accompaniment, following the chords from Anqingyu’s fingertips, transformed into a lively and gentle ballad, flowing into every corner of the venue. The brilliant lights painted the night with iridescent colors, and amid waves of cheers, the venue heated up again!
In just one night, Anqingyu had gone from a novice who had barely touched an instrument to possessing guitar skills not inferior to Li Yifei’s. Compared to Li Yifei’s deep and resonant voice, his was more gentle and delicate – for this song, he was even more suitable than Li Yifei.
Jiang Er stood dazed behind the crowd. That figure in the spotlight, the center of everyone’s attention, merged with the shy and gentle Anqingyu in her mind, and for a moment, she felt a sense of unreality.
“Qingyu’s personality is rather shy and low-key. This kind of high-profile behavior under everyone’s gaze is something he could never have done before,” Lin Qiye smiled as he walked to her side and slowly said,
“This time, his ability to stand on stage already shows he’s made a very big decision… This song, he sings only for you.
Jiang Er, you changed him.”
Lin Qiye was telling the truth. He couldn’t imagine what kind of courage it would take for that once-reclusive boy who used to hide in sewers dissecting corpses alone, to now walk into the spotlight before everyone… For Anqingyu, this might not be easier than single-handedly killing a main god.
His ability to take this step was truly beyond everyone’s expectations… but similarly, he was also using this opportunity on campus to express his feelings and determination to Jiang Er.
Jiang Er’s lips pressed together slightly. She looked at Anqingyu on stage, her eyes showing unprecedented joy and emotion.
“I know,” Jiang Er said softly. “Even if he didn’t do this, I would know his feelings…”
Jiang Er paused, a bright smile appearing on her face, “But seeing him able to stand there… I’m really happy.”
Lin Qiye shifted his gaze from Jiang Er to Anqingyu, and after a long while, sighed helplessly:
“Anqingyu, that prodigy, reaching this level after just one night of practice… makes me feel really inadequate…”
…
“Forgive me for being helplessly drawn to you,
Perhaps just a casual glance at you,
Would make a hundred-meter sprint come to a halt…”
Backstage, Lu Menglei stood at the control panel, one hand holding the headphones to her ear, the other adjusting the equipment in front of her, completely focused.
“You know stage control too?” Cao Yuan stood beside her, asking in surprise.
“I know a little of the basics… just playing music, adjusting sound and such.” Lu Menglei smiled. “During rehearsal, the accompaniment for this song, the background animation, and light programming were all arranged. I just need to play it.”
“I see.”
“By the way… maybe you should untie them, they look terrified.” Lu Menglei pointed to the corner, where several staff members were tied together with rope.
The staff members were bound to the table legs, their mouths sealed with transparent tape, only able to watch helplessly as Cao Yuan and Lu Menglei operated in the control room, occasionally making muffled sounds.
Seeing that Anqingyu’s performance was almost over, Cao Yuan temporarily removed the tape from their mouths. With the loud music outside, even if they shouted, no one would notice.
“Who are you people! How dare you break in…”
“Shut up!!” Cao Yuan glared at them fiercely.
“…”
Under Cao Yuan’s intimidating presence, they immediately closed their mouths, afraid that this man with the face of a terrorist might pull out a gun and blow their heads off.
“Remember, you saw nothing today. You operated all this equipment yourselves, understand?” Cao Yuan smiled coldly and ominously. “Anyone who dares to speak out, I’ll tear their mouth apart!”
These good students with excellent grades had never encountered such a situation. With just a little intimidation from Cao Yuan, they were scared into nodding frantically.
Cao Yuan stood up and walked to Lu Menglei’s side, watching her seriously control the stage, and sighed deeply:
“Sorry for getting you involved in this.”
“It’s fine. This kind of scene from TV dramas – it would be a shame not to experience it once.” Lu Menglei laughed lightly. “Besides, I’m about to graduate, so even if we’re caught, it won’t matter.”
Cao Yuan nodded, his gaze passing through the transparent cover of the tent to look at Anqingyu on stage.
…
As the last chord faded, the music on stage gradually quieted. The cheers from below, accompanied by waving glow sticks, marked the end of the evening’s performance.
The students in the venue gradually left, the spotlights went out, and in the dimness, Anqingyu put down his guitar and let out a long breath.
His back was already half-soaked with sweat.
Now he could face a main god’s pressure without changing expression, but facing this kind of situation was really too much for him.
However, this performance had resolved his inner conflict about Jiang Er, making him feel much lighter. He pushed his wheelchair to an open area of the venue, and the ghost-like Jiang Er had already floated over, throwing her arms around him.
Jiang Er hovered in front of Anqingyu, her eyes full of joy and excitement. Anqingyu smiled and asked, “How was it? Did you like it?”
“Yes.” Jiang Er nodded firmly. “You sang much better than Li Yifei.”
The smile at the corners of Anqingyu’s mouth grew deeper.
“You sang well,” Lin Qiye and Chen Han also came forward, smiling at him.
Anqingyu smiled helplessly, about to say something when his body suddenly shuddered!
A tearing pain came from his mind, and Anqingyu’s face instantly turned pale. He clutched his head in agony, his body curling up in the wheelchair!
Boom–!!
A muffled sound echoed in the night sky, and Lin Qiye, as if sensing something, had a dramatic change in expression!
“How is this possible?!!” Lin Qiye suddenly turned his head toward a certain direction, speaking in disbelief.
“What’s wrong?” Chen Han asked, puzzled.
“It’s only been two days… how did they come so quickly?!”
