Chapter 490: Put on the Spot
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Ruowan was about to explain that He Lu and the girls were just joking.
To her dismay, Song Wenye took the lead in rocking the boat. “That’s amazing of Su Ruowan! She’s our role model. We should learn from her to write and choreograph our own song for the next performance. Mr. Xixi, don’t you think so?”
Su Ruowan was put on the spot thanks to Song Wenye. Su Ruowan nodded and went along with it. “Su Ruowan is exceptional.”
Turning green by Mr. Xixi’s compliment, the trainees sweetened up to Su Ruowan. Be it out of the goodness of their hearts or against their conscience, they made too much of her.
Su Ruowan could not back down now that she was pushed to a corner with no way out. She knew that denial would only lead her to be sneered at, looked down upon, and questioned of her abilities.
These conniving b*tches were waiting for her to make a fool out of herself. Who did they think they were? Su Ruowan would never give them the chance!
They were jealous of her talent and feared her gift.
“Wow! Is this the song you’d be performing?” One of the trainees grabbed Su Ruowan’s notebook and exaggeratedly cried in envy. She appeared absorbed in the notebook.
Su Ruowan’s notebook was passed around among the trainees. They read in amazement, singing praises of the written song even though some did not get it. A song with Mr. Xixi’s stamp of approval must be of quality.
Standing in a corner, He Lu and a few observed the look on Su Ruowan’s face and snickered to themselves. Su Ruowan was supposed to be good because she retained the top spot in Group A.
Since she was that good, Su Ruowan might as well perform her own work rather than a cover on stage!
Su Ruowan turned black in the face. If looks could kill, these b*tches would be dead by now.
Instead of staying for the drama, Song Wenye went off to her business and called Group A’s mentor, Fang Yuan, over. She sugarcoated Su Ruowan with all the praises in the world, adding that Mr. Xixi commended her song and that she was prepared to perform her original on the main stage.
As a mentor who respected her students, Fang Yao admired talents with a mind of their own. Su Ruowan happened to be one she was biased toward. Intrigued, Fang Yao came over and encouraged Su Ruowan. “You have a great idea there. Don’t worry, I have your back.”
Fang Yao was certain Su Ruowan would succeed. As it turned out, she was a good judge of character to recognize that the kid had the talent and guts. Fang Yao looked forward to Su Ruowan’s growth and performance on stage.
With that, Fang Yao’s words cemented Su Ruowan writing and choreographing an original song of her own.
“Thank you, Ms. Fang Yao.” Unable to talk her way out of it, Su Ruowan caved in.
Su Ruowan had a clear idea of her strength. It was not an issue for her to do a cover, but she had zero talent for songwriting. Otherwise, Su Ruowan would have debuted early on.
Nevertheless, she was not going to throw in the towel. Su Ruowan could seek help from Muyan or ask someone to write and choreograph for her. Money could buy anything.
That was right.
She wanted to be a musically gifted person like Muyan, and she could label herself just that. Su Ruowan would be the best on the condition that no one found out.
Hearing the commotion, the other mentors came over.
Fang Yao happily pulled Su Ruowan along and boasted to the others. “Our Su Ruowan is a golden girl. She’s going to write and choreograph a song to perform on stage.”
She gave them a look that showed how impressed and proud she was of Su Ruowan’s bold decision.
Xia Mi, Gu Yang, and He Sumo were unsure what was going on, but they nodded in agreement and admiration following the statement.
Su Ruowan really had the guts. There were not many rookies who would write and choreograph their own songs.
Su Muyan knew where Su Ruowan’s capabilities lay. His suspicions were written all over his face but he was quick to regain his composure. Still, he found it odd.
Why did Wanwan not discuss with him in advance that she wanted to write and choreograph her own song to perform on stage? Was it a decision made last-minute?
She was good at performing a cover but choreographing and songwriting was not her strong suit. It was not up to the level to perform in front of an audience.
Su Ruowan smiled and greeted the mentors modestly.
“You lot should make time and steer Su Ruowan in the right direction.” Fang Yao jokingly said before giving Su Ruowan a moment to say a few words.
Su Ruowan gazed at the mentors and humbly said, “I may not do well on my first try. Please offer me guidance whenever possible.”
She came around to the idea to perform her own work on stage. It would only do her good by earning her more applause, flowers, and support.
Song Wenye, that b*tch must have thought she succeeded at pulling a fast one on her. No way. Su Ruowan was going to prove she prevailed over everyone with “her own” choreography and song. These girls would only be tormented by their green-eyed monsters.
Su Ruowan should thank Song Wenye as the latter’s plan backfired and gave her an edge instead. Song Wenye was going to flip when she realized all the fuss she kicked up only helped Su Ruowan to succeed.
Song Wenye thought it was strange that Su Ruowan appeared rather confident. She began to doubt whether she had screwed up and opened doors for Su Ruowan instead.
Was Su Ruowan really that good at songwriting and choreography?
Song Wenye started to regret it. Why did she have to make such a huge fuss?
She wanted to make Su Ruowan look like an idiot, but the progression of things was far from what she imagined.
Was there a possibility Su Ruowan was as good as Mr. Xixi put her to be? Song Wenye would gag if Su Ruowan was spectacular on stage.
Su Ruowan became the center of attention. It went without saying how delighted and smug she was to accept the envy and worship of the trainees as well as the admiration of the mentors.
Bleak air surrounded Song Wenye. Kneeling in a corner, she forked out her phone and sent a distress message. [Song Wenye: Xixi, I think I might have f*cked up and inadvertently helped Su Ruowan.]
Having left the studio, Shen Xi read the message and replied. [Shen Xi: What did you do?]
Song Wenye typed quickly and filled the whole screen with text, explaining the situation.
Of course, Shen Xi did not have to read the message to know what went down since she was there. She texted back. [Shen Xi: Just concentrate on yourself.]
As for Su Ruowan, pigs would fly the day she could compose and choreograph her own song. She was likely to use the same method as Su Muyan – hiring a ghostwriter and buying the rights out of them before passing it off as their own work. Musical gift, her *ss.
Shen Xi was interested in the buyout bit. It was high time to offer a name to Su Muyan to provide the buyout service. Shen Xi could then give the most thoughtful, covert, and perfect service to Su Ruowan.. She could guarantee that Su Ruowan would regret it for life after trying it once.
