Commentator Fengye could hardly believe his ears. He glanced at Zhu Ye beside him and, seeing the same shocked expression, he was finally sure he hadn’t misheard.
It took Fengye several seconds of being stunned before he reacted and explained into the microphone,
"Gan...Gan Yanyu has...chosen to withdraw from the competition!"
the entire audience was in an uproar.
Many members of the audience stood up, completely bewildered:
"What kind of joke is this?! It’s over before it even started?!"
"No, I was waiting to hear you perform ’Ode to Love’!"
"Incomprehensible, incomprehensible!!"
In the office, Yao Han, upon hearing this, completely lost control and kicked the floor-to-ceiling window several times,
"Are they crazy? Why give up? Why give up here?!"
Yao Han punched the wall, shouting,
"They clearly had a chance to win the championship, such a big chance!!"
"Mr. Lin Tian is so injured, even if he could perform, he definitely wouldn’t be able to perform at his usual level, right?" He Shumo said.
"No, you just don’t understand them!"
Yao Han gritted his teeth and said,
"In Lin Tian’s current state...he could completely unleash their potential, it’s not like it hasn’t happened before! In this state, they...could definitely perform a miraculous show!! How could Mr. Gan Yanyu not know such a simple truth?!"
At this moment, Yao Han was almost grinding his molars to pieces, his gaze towards the stage was practically fiery.
He couldn’t understand!
Absolutely couldn’t understand! Giving up the finals just because of this kind of thing...
This is beyond human comprehension!
She no longer deserves to be called the purest classical musician of Tian Chao! Gan Yanyu’s current foolish decision doesn’t match the glory they have...
"Is it possible that, in fact, they know?"
In a rage, Yao Han cast a confused look.
"She knows, but she still did it."
He Shumo looked towards the stage, his eyes full of emotion,
"It’s because...to her, right now, there are things more important than the championship."
Hearing Gan Yanyu’s words, Lin Tian’s eyes widened, looking at Gan Yanyu in disbelief.
Instinctively, Lin Tian began to murmur.
Gan Yanyu must be crazy!
"Wait...wait a moment..."
Lin Tian stood up from his chair and walked towards Gan Yanyu in horror,
"No, Mr. Gan...you can’t give up here...!!!"
"This is your dream...this is what you’ve been pursuing for so many years..."
Lin Tian’s vision of Gan Yanyu grew blurrier.
Finally, we made it to here.
That girl with depression, suicidal tendencies, severe asthma, for whom even stepping on stage was a luxury...
Used all her effort...finally, she got to this point...
How can it end here!? Fresh chapters posted on novel·fiɾe·net
Totally unacceptable, absolutely unacceptable...that’s their dream...
Lin Tian wanted to rush up and stop Gan Yanyu.
However, his head felt heavier and heavier.
His consciousness also gradually became blurry...
Lin Tian’s eyelids felt too heavy. He came to Gan Yanyu, trying hard to hold up his blurred vision to see her clearly.
The girl in front of him,
with tears already soaking her magnificent gown, ruining her painstakingly applied makeup.
Gan Yanyu held the boy’s face, biting her lip, lightly murmuring,
"I...can’t complete the performance."
Lin Tian’s pupils trembled.
"Have a good rest..." Gan Yanyu softly and gently said.
Finally, those heavy eyelids closed.
Lin Tian collapsed on the stage.
"Ambulance...ambulance!!"
The staff rushed onto the stage in a panic, surrounding Lin Tian.
On site, numerous reporters ignored the warnings of management, stood up one after another, and frantically began pressing the camera shutters.
The entire venue soon descended into chaos and confusion.
Gao Zhenyang, sitting in the audience below the stage, watched the scene before him.
With an expression of shock, he remained silent for a long while, yet revealed a look of confusion whether it was bitter or a smile.
"Mr. Lin Tian...the last piece of the puzzle, finally filled in."
Nannali, contestant number 11 backstage, stood frozen, watching everything unfold on stage.
"Gan Yanyu...withdrew?"
Nannali was utterly stunned, looking at everything on the large screen, feeling a wave of dizziness.
This whole occurrence felt like a dream, causing Nannali’s thoughts to come to a halt.
—If Gan Yanyu withdrew from the competition.
the meaning of me continuing to play the cello is...
Do I...really still need to continue this competition?
She covered her head, a suddenly extremely pained expression appearing on her face.
"Hey...tell me! Gan Yanyu!!"
Nannali pressed hard against the screen, her eyes firmly fixed on the bowing Gan Yanyu on stage.
"What kind of look is that which seems to see through everything?!"
"Are you that kind of person?! Don’t you know how important the Dragon Violin Cup is to you?!"
"Bastard!! Why, why!!!"
Nannali shouted and shouted, and suddenly tears flowed down her face.
That person, who from the beginning to the end, always appeared tall on the stage, Gan Yanyu.
That cellist who has always been someone Nannali looked up to and admired, the purest girl whose beliefs could never be crushed...
