"...let’s just forget it." The most update n0vels are published on NoveI~Fire.net
Five minutes had passed since Liu Xin’an’s singing.
The silent Director Yang finally set his eyes on the clueless Liu Xin’an and uttered a sentence that made everyone present nod in agreement.
Son Seungwan also nodded, not that she understood, but seeing everyone nodding gravely, she felt that not joining in would make her seem out of place.
"Xin’an, it’s not that it was bad, it’s just that if you sing this song, I’m afraid it’s going to affect your career."
Director Yang was dead serious. This was no laughing matter—if that song was actually performed on stage, it would be talked about for a lifetime.
But here’s the problem: he definitely couldn’t ridicule the whole segment just because of Liu Xin’an.
Director Yang turned to look at the sound engineer, who was brimming with excitement, with a heavy heart.
This guy looked as if he’d found some new challenge to conquer.
"Xiao Li, can you fix his song?"
"I’ll give it a try!"
Xiao Li nodded excitedly.
Since they couldn’t cancel the segment, their sound engineer had to work his magic.
After all, they had prepared a prerecorded version of the song to be played, not a live performance.
These four were not professional singers. Non-professionals on a professional stage were bound to make a fool of themselves, so Director Yang wouldn’t let these four team leaders take such a big risk.
Hmm... Liu Xin’an’s performance was beyond his expectations.
There are actually people in this world completely tone-deaf, how is that even possible?
"Okay, Xin’an, you’re going to have a tough few days. Come here every day, as long as we can prepare your prerecorded track."
Director Yang no longer cared if the voice, once tuned, would sound anything like Liu Xin’an’s. If worse comes to worst...
Electronic music! He could add electronic music!
After saying that, Director Yang heavily patted Liu Xin’an’s shoulder and fled the scene.
He couldn’t help shaking his head as he walked away, as if he’d just encountered something truly horrifying.
To make Director Yang, who had spent so many years in the entertainment industry, show such a look of terror, Liu Xin’an could be considered a standout among the youth.
Liu Xin’an sighed and looked innocently at Lu Xiao and Son Seungwan, whose faces were filled with despair.
At that moment, Lu Xiao was pondering an important life question: why, knowing how bad Liu Xin’an sang, she didn’t choose to run away immediately.
As for Son Seungwan...
"No kidding, you might as well say goodbye to the stage forever."
After all, it was not a recording period and, to some extent, Son Seungwan was still saving Liu Xin’an’s face, so she said this jeer in Korean.
"Teach me how to sing, Wendy."
"What a joke! Do you want me to start doubting my own singing ability? Give up, there’s no hope, really."
Liu Xin’an was tearful with frustration. This person’s words were really hurtful.
"How did you manage it? Even if I wanted to sing like that on purpose, I couldn’t. Are you doing this deliberately?"
"I just... did it without realizing."
Son Seungwan was still utterly incredulous. She looked at Liu Xin’an and raised her eyebrows.
"How about you sing another one, and I’ll try to help you out?"
The smile on Son Seungwan’s face was genuinely sincere: "Really."
Son Seungwan first stopped Liu Xin’an’s preparation, then took out her phone and aimed the camera at him.
Next, she attempted the absurd task of "how to use one hand to block both ears."
Eventually, with her head tilted, Son Seungwan used her shoulder to press against her left ear, her right hand to cover her right ear, and her left hand to hold the phone, aiming the camera at the speechless Liu Xin’an.
"If you block both ears, how can you listen?"
"Although you’re off key, your singing has strong penetration, don’t worry."
Son Seungwan flashed a feigned expression - she just wanted to "sin" with Bae Juhyun and the others.
Hmm... since she was going to post it in the group chat anyway, it would be great for Seulgi and the others to hear it.
Although Liu Xin’an didn’t want to trust Son Seungwan, to be honest, he definitely wanted to improve his singing ability.
At least it should be pleasing to the ear, as he liked humming tunes himself.
Now with the chance of Son Seungwan’s guidance, after pondering for a moment, Liu Xin’an braced himself and began his second attempt at singing.
A long minute passed, and Son Seungwan, with a relieved air, put down her phone and said with a bright smile, "Okay, hopeless."
"That’s a curse word! Lu Xiao taught me that!"
Cursing was something everyone did, and she had learned quite a few, so she understood this one.
Eager to post the video in the group chat and, after confirming there were no strange tags like "spreading harmful videos," Son Seungwan smirked with schadenfreude.
"Let the sound engineer worry about you."
"We’re about to do the recording, are you going to wash your ears out here or leave?"
"I want to hear how much better you can do." Liu Xin’an was not ready to give up, he wouldn’t concede just like that!
The few people in the recording studio continued to chat.
At the same time, the video uploaded to their group chat began to spread.
The first to see the video was the most idle Bae Juhyun.
Actually, it was time for her to study Chinese, but with the phone ringing, how could she concentrate on learning?
