Chapter 131: Father and daughter…
Translator: Lordbluefire
Under the VIP sitting area, she saw three people at a glance.
The first was Yan Xiaoqi whose leg was still covered by gauze.
The little girl sat on the chair and was lifting two shining signboards with pink words ‘Mommy is the greatest!’ written on them.
Bai Shanshan was moved.
Also, there was a middle-aged woman with a frail body seated beside Yan Xiaoqi. This was Bai Shanshan’s mother. She was merely 50 years old, but half of her hair had already turned white.
Bai Shanshan’s eyes turned red.
Yan Xiaoqi’s wound looked shocking initially, but after it was sewn up, it no longer looked that big.
Hence, the procedures for her discharge at the hospital were already done yesterday.
Since Bai Shanshan was determined to get a divorce from Yan Zihao, she directly brought her daughter back to her home.
Back at home, Madam Bai was very worried. “Shanshan, do you really want a divorce? But if you divorce, how can our family still survive?”
Bai Shanshan nodded.
When Madam Bai entered her room last night, she directly took out a stack of money and passed it to Bai Shanshan. “These are my savings through these years. You can use them first.”
Her mother wasn’t working, so this $30,000 was the entire savings that their family had.
During these past years, the only good aspect of Yan Zihao was that he would give Bai Shanshan’s mother $3,000 as living expenses every month. Although this sum of money was considered very little in Sea City, it was already enough for her mother to eat.
Never in her wildest dreams did Bai Shanshan imagine that her mother could still save $30,000 despite the paltry sum she had every month.
No wonder she was so skinny…and her health checkup report came back saying that her mother was malnourished.
Her mother would always laugh and say that her digestion wasn’t good so it was useless even if she ate good food.
…
She couldn’t allow herself to lose like that.
She had signed a contract with Royal Ocean Entertainment and she would be able to gain $2,000 for every episode of [Masked Singers] that she participated in. This stage was her only chance.
Bai Shanshan held the mic.
Her gaze then landed on Chu Cimo once again.
The man was clad in clothes with willow leaf patterns. Moreover, his body was painted in all sorts of colors, with words that were cheering for Bai Shanshan. There were even two hearts drawn on his face.
When she glanced at him, the man suddenly pointed to an area at the back.
Bai Shanshan followed his gaze…
“Swish~”
Rolls of yellow banners suddenly unfurled from the ceiling!
Large words could be seen written on it.
“Bai Shanshan is the best!”
“Bai Shanshan, you are the brightest star in the sky!”
Bai Shanshan’s eyes grew red.
At this moment, Chu Cimo stood up and shouted, “Bai Shanshan, you can do it!”
And as his shout echoed, the audience also couldn’t help but stand and shout together, “Bai Shanshan, you can do it!”
Chu Cimo shouted again, “You are the best!”
“You are the best!”
Chu Cimo suddenly changed the topic. “Bai Shanshan, you’ve slimmed down!”
“Hahahahaha…” Everyone laughed kindly, but they soon echoed what Chu Cimo said, “You’ve slimmed down!”
…
…
Bai Shanshan had never been in such a spot before, feeling like everyone’s attention was on her. She then glanced at the audience below, looking at Chu Cimo, Yan Xiaoqi, and her mother…
She also saw Shen Ruojing.
She closed her eyes.
The sound of music drifted from the earpiece in her ear.
At this moment, her singing voice grew louder and louder, to the point where it passed a certain pitch and entered the vocal range of dolphins!
“Ah…”
Her magical voice surged above the clouds.
It felt like something had broken the shackles binding it…
At the judges’ area, all four judges were stunned.
“Her treble has reached F6, right?”
“My god!”
“Usually, the treble of females can reach F6, but they won’t be able to hold it for too long. However, her voice is so stable!”
“Her voice is godly!”
“This is the highest treble I’ve ever heard for this song!”
“…”
The audience didn’t understand the technical terms, but they could hear that Bai Shanshan had been dragging the word ‘ah’ in a high pitch for a very very long time!
This song was the song that had propelled Yan Zijing to fame.
Back then, she had depended on the long ‘ah’ to become a goddess of singing.
But now, Bai Shanshan surpassed her own limits on the stage!!
After the song ended, the audience was still in complete silence.
The silence persisted for over ten seconds before Yang Zhiqin, who was seated at the judges’ area, stood up and applauded.
The other judges stood up together with her.
The audience below also stood up one after another.
After that, thunderous applause rang out!
Bai Shanshan slowly opened her eyes and stared at everyone below. She suddenly felt like crying right now…
She knew that from now onward, she would never be afraid of going up the stage ever again.
Tears fell from her eyes.
She then dipped into a very deep bow to thank the audience.
She was very thankful to Chu Cimo for giving her confidence.
She was very thankful to her mother for giving her motivation.
She was very thankful to everyone for giving her support.
She maintained a 90-degree bow, and the applause still didn’t stop even after a long time. She also didn’t straighten her back.
…
On Weibo, Bai Shanshan became trending.
#ThisIsTheBestDolphinVoiceI’veEverHeard#
#BaiShanShanSurpassedYanZiJing#
#BaiShanShanHasReallySlimDown#
There were a bunch of taglines that became trending too.
Bai Shanshan was beautiful and because she was chubby, she seemed harmless. Hence, both males and females were very fond of her, and their comments were also very kind.
——She is much slimmer compared to the first time she stepped on the stage! She must have lost weight, right? Hahaha! She’s too adorable!
——This little sister is also very cute when she’s chubbier. The main thing is that she’s pretty!
——Her singing voice is filled with power! I really like it!
——I feel that she is really better compared to Yan Zijing…
The Weibo account that the Royal Ocean Entertainment had just applied for her was amassing fans frenziedly.
Bai Shanshan grew popular.
She became completely popular!
“Megastar!”
“Heavenly queen! Bai Shanshan, I can see the shadow of a heavenly queen from you!”
When Bai Shanshan stepped down the stage and entered backstage, those participants who had performed and had yet to perform flashed thumbs up at her.
Bai Shanshan’s eyes were red as she bowed to everyone.
Her make-up was already ruined by her tears. Hence, she went to the washroom to wash her face.
Just when she left the washroom, she saw Yan Zihao standing in front of her and staring at her with a conflicted expression.
Bai Shanshan straightened her back and was no longer as cowardly as before. “I want a divorce.”
Yan Zihao’s gaze gradually turned gloomy. “Sure but the child belongs to the Yan Family. You can’t bring her away.”
Bai Shanshan started. “Impossible.”
–
Shen Ruojing, who was in the audience stand, was applauding too.
After Bai Shanshan got off the stage, Shen Ruojing gazed around and discovered that Yan Zihao had disappeared. She frowned. But just as she was preparing to look for Bai Shanshan, she suddenly heard someone at the side exclaiming.
“Is that Bai Shanshan’s husband? He is so handsome!”
“Her daughter is also very adorable!”
“The father and daughter look so alike! This is especially so for their eyes. They both have phoenix eyes…and they look so matching together…I feel that they can both sign up for the TV program [Where Are We Going, Dad?]!”
Shen Ruojing halted her steps.
She gazed in the direction everyone was looking and saw Chu Cimo and Yan Xiaoqi.
The little girl was fair and tender, and her eyes really resembled Chu Tianye’s and Chu Yu’s eyes a little.
Shen Ruojing narrowed her eyes.
She suddenly recalled back then when Chu Cimo had thought that Chu Tianye and Chu Xiaomeng were his kids…
He had also been schemed against by someone before…
Bai Shanshan was the same too…
Upon thinking of this, Shen Ruojing’s lips suddenly curled.
