Chapter 72

"Queen of the Sky has returned!"

"Two songs to determine the fate of the world!"

"One song 'Those Years,' one song 'Wild Child,' the entire venue erupted in狂欢!"

"The ratings for 'Next Queen of the Sky' have once again set a new record, with 'Wild Child' reaching the peak of viewership!"

"The super-popular contestant, Liu Qin, has finally returned to her best form, fully armed and ready to dominate!"...

The media once again demonstrated their boundless integrity, almost groveling in their worship of Liu Qin's outstanding performance last night, to the point where people almost forgot that these same self-proclaimed kings without crowns had previously been the ones to fiercely attack Liu Qin.

"The song 'Wild Child' is as wild as its name, filled with a wildness that a classically trained person could never write." This was the evaluation given by a senior in the music industry, prominently featured in the Capital Daily.

Similarly, many people were also enthusiastic about 'Those Years,' praising it: "The melody of 'Those Years' is simply born for pop, and Liu Qin's arrangement is so vibrant and impressive."

The two songs were released on the second day on the Longguo Music Network, the largest music website in the country, which almost includes all the songs from Longguo. Whatever song you want to listen to, it's all there.

'Those Years' climbed to the top of the day's play count with its simple yet lively melody!

The second place on the play count list was taken by Liu Qin's other song, the stunning and unrestrained 'Wild Child.'

The daily play counts for both songs were extremely high, and as a result, the top two spots on the daily play list were both claimed by Liu Qin alone.

This was a privilege that only established big-name singers could enjoy, and it was unexpected that a contestant from a talent show could achieve this, stunning countless fans and making the journalists write with renewed vigor, singing praises.

Liu Qin's fan base, which had previously started to shrink, once again grew, and the momentum seemed even more vigorous than before, with a cohesion that was much stronger than before.

——

On the other side, Luoyang's Weibo was also bombarded by readers, with countless readers excitedly leaving messages under Luoyang's Weibo.

"Mr. Bai, after Liu Qin read your novel, she wrote a song called 'Those Years.' Have you heard it? It's really beautiful!"

"Mr. Bai is too awesome. I think 'Those Years' can be used as the theme song for the novel. The song perfectly matches the plot of the novel, doesn't it?"

"I didn't have much feeling for Liu Qin before, but after listening to 'Those Years,' I feel like I'm now madly in love with her! No one stop me, I'm going to have a baby for Liu Qin!"

"I like this kind of contestant. Compared to Li Tianyin, Liu Qin's performance feels more natural, with no pretense at all."

"I feel like Liu Qin is also a fan of Mr. Bai. Why don't you two hook up? We all support you!"

These comments were lively, but when Luoyang saw the last Weibo post, his cheeks twitched slightly.

These ignorant people, they were all deceived by Liu Qin's simple and beautiful appearance. I am the only one who is awake in this world of drunken people.

Moving the mouse, Luoyang reposted the two popular songs, 'Those Years' and 'Wild Child,' which were widely shared on Weibo, and wrote: "I like the nostalgic youth in 'Those Years' and the unrestrained wildness in 'Wild Child.'"

This was a very literary statement. After posting it, Luoyang felt that he was now a highbrow online writer, as his novel actually had a theme song.

The fans and readers on Weibo cheered again, but Luoyang didn't have time to look... because he received a call from Liu Qin at that moment.

...

"Am I impressive?" The voice was cold and artificial.

"The top 20 is just your starting point." Luoyang said to Liu Qin over the phone.

There is no 100% guarantee of winning. Even though Liu Qin had countless classic songs from Earth, she couldn't be sure of winning the championship.

Just like the previous Luoyang, even though 'Unrivaled' was much more brilliant than the Stone Man's 'Devil Gate,' it was once overshadowed by 'Devil Gate,' and it took a huge effort to finally surpass it on the monthly vote list.

"You're no fun to talk to..." Liu Qin said irritably.

Luoyang was speechless and could only half-heartedly respond, "Yes, yes, you're really impressive..."

"Of course, I am the national goddess!" Liu Qin ignored the insincerity in Luoyang's tone and shamelessly gave herself some grand titles.

"Indeed, you shouldn't be praised." Luoyang pursed his lips. This person was a typical case of giving a little color and wanting to start a dyeing shop. If he praised her a bit, her tail would be up in the sky—assuming she had a tail.

"But, the choice of 'Wild Child' was good." In the end, Luoyang still gave some affirmation.

"That was a flash of inspiration." Liu Qin said proudly.

"Then... what about the song 'Those Years'?"

"You gave me a hint, if I still couldn't figure it out, wouldn't I be too stupid?" Liu Qin said lightly.

Luoyang nodded, thinking that this person had finally shown some intelligence. He had been a bit worried that Liu Qin wouldn't understand his hint.

In fact, Luoyang didn't know that to understand the so-called "east wind" he mentioned, Liu Qin had racked her brains and spent many sleepless nights without any clue.

It was only when Liu Qin logged into Weibo and saw that Luoyang had written 'Those Years We Chased After' and made it a huge hit online that she finally understood what Luoyang meant—this guy was hinting that she could sing 'Those Years' in the next competition.

After all, this song would resonate with the original fans of the novel.

As for why Liu Qin sang 'Wild Child' after 'Those Years'?

Well... purely because this person was showy and wanted to slap back the journalists who had accused her of running out of ideas, so she decided to give them a solid slap in the face.

"But to be honest, it feels pretty good to see those so-called kings without crowns change their tune like the wind." Luoyang remarked.

In any world, entertainment journalists are the most unscrupulous profession, skilled at pandering to the masses and lying with their eyes wide open.

——

In a luxurious apartment in Shanghai.

"Damn! Damn it! She actually made it to the top 20!"

Xue Kai tore the newspaper in his hand to shreds and threw it away. If the camera zoomed in, one could see Liu Qin's beautiful face on the entertainment page.

"I won't let you off."

Xue Kai took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. From a young age, he had never failed to achieve what he wanted.

But that girl named Liu Qin had made him lose twice, which had clearly ignited his true anger. He decided to play a bit harder.

"There's still a long way to go. The top 20 is your end."

There are people in this world who, if you even look at them a little longer, might think you have a grudge against them and are ready to play some dirty tricks.

Without a doubt, Xue Kai was such a person.
