Chapter 459

This episode, [Nan XiangWan] was drawn to perform first, a rare opportunity to open the show that made [Xiao Dong] extremely nervous.

She accompanied [Nan XiangWan] from the backstage all the way, cheering her on the entire time.

[Xiao Dong]: "Go [Nan XiangWan]! [Nan XiangWan] the invincible! [Nan XiangWan] go wild!"

[Nan XiangWan] raised an eyebrow and spread her arms open.

[Xiao Dong] immediately put on her a huge red cloak, carefully covering her entire body, pulling the hood over to cover most of her face.

On stage, [Guan Liangzhe] was hyping up the audience during the countdown.

This episode, [Nan XiangWan] did not need any stage preparation or props.

Everything was on her, including the custom microphone given by Gu Beihuai.

However, the barrage comments were very messy at this time. Other than the fans that came every week, there were many more antis today.

Barrage comments:

"[Nan XiangWan] can still participate in the show? The backstage must be huge!"

"I want to see how this woman performs today, her mentality must be blown up!"

"[Nan XiangWan] became famous too young and too fast, she's arrogant and impatient."

"She didn't dare to be so stubborn online before she became famous! She's gotten arrogant since becoming popular!"

...

Her fans wanted to retort but there were too many comments attacking her that they couldn't respond to them all.

At the same time, many people were waiting for [Nan XiangWan] to embarrass herself, best scenario would be a stage accident, her fans were afraid that [Nan XiangWan] would be affected by this and become mentally unstable, unable to sing well or crack her voice.

At this time, [Nan XiangWan] signaled from the backstage that she was ready.

After [Guan Liangzhe] received the signal, he quickly went off stage. The lights on stage dimmed and the surroundings became quiet.

The live audience quietly waited in anticipation, in the front row center of the spectator stand, [Jie Chou] held up a [Nan XiangWan] personal lightstick.

No matter how fierce the online battles became, he insisted on showing his support on camera!

[Jie Chou] knew things he couldn't share externally. Moreover, the scope of information he could access in his job already counted as having heavenly sight. The only thing he could do was show his support.

Other audience members around him wished they could give him a big thumbs up. This guy was gutsy. Were all [Nan XiangWan] fans diehard iron fans?

Things were in chaos online, including the barrage comments for this show being flooded, yet she didn't lose a single fan!

Deputy Director [Tao Kongyan] doesn't usually pay attention to entertainment news. At his age, he really isn't interested in idols or whatever.

But his son was about to start university soon. [Tao Kongyan] thought that since father and son rarely get to meet now, he would accompany his son to watch the weekly show "The Singer" that he always watches.

Little did he expect to see a familiar face on the screen every time they did a close up.

[Jie Chou] held up [Nan XiangWan]'s lightstick high towards the camera, furiously making gestures that showed he was very experienced and not his first time being captured on camera.

[Tao Kongyan] spurted out the water he was drinking on the spot!

His son looked back at him in shock: "Dad, what's wrong?"

[Tao Kongyan] coughed twice, his face extremely ugly.

This little brat [Jie Chou]! Was he looking to die!

But [Tao Kongyan] didn't have time to scolded him either, because a dim light illuminated a dark corner of the stage.

The first performer tonight had already stood there.

She seemed to be leaning against something, her head bowed down.

The large red cloak covered her tall figure completely, and with her head lowered, the wide hood formed shadows that concealed her entire face.

Nothing could be seen clearly, only the faint outline of a raised arm holding steadily onto a pure white microphone!

The huge display screen beside the stage lit up with the song title:

"Love The Way You Lie" - Eminem/Rihanna

[Tao Kongyan] was surprised. He commented: "The stage design is very well thought out, good job production team."

His son proudly added: "The stage is always designed by [Nan XiangWan] herself! She can do everything!"

[Tao Kongyan] frowned but didn't say anything else.

At this time, [Nan XiangWan] on stage raised her wrist, bringing the microphone closer to her lips.

The custom made white frosted texture microphone formed a stark contrast against the red cloak, instantly drawing everyone's eyes!

The accompanying band received their cue.

As the melody started playing, her voice rang out:

[Justgonnastandthereandwatchmeburn] (I'm burning away, yet you just stand by and watch)

[Wellthat'sallright] (That's fine)

[BecauseIlikethewayithurts] (Because I love the pain)

In the first verse, [Nan XiangWan] didn't add too many flourishes, keeping to her original vocals.

Her vocal tone was unique. Though it was high pitched, her singing technique meant no strain could be heard. Instead, it sounded like her throat was constricted as she sang.

Bringing extremely high notes down to an earthy resonance, seemingly stemming from anguish and helplessness.

This was followed up by her straightening up from her leaning position, taking a step forward.

The red cloak swung and billowed dramatically with her motions, like she was being engulfed in raging flames.

[Nan XiangWan]'s vocals remained suppressed but slightly more open than before:

[Justgonnastandthereandhearmecry] (I'm crying endlessly, yet you just stand by and watch)

[Wellthat'sallright] (That's fine)

[BecauseIlovethewayyoulie] (Because I love the way you lie)

[Ilovethewayyoulie] (I love the way you lie)

Still sounding like sighs, but everyone could detect a subtle shift from her previous helpless sighs.

As expected, the next second, the drums and an extremely strong beat flooded in.

[Nan XiangWan] abruptly took a step forward, sweeping the cloak on her body aside along with the hood - flinging them high up!

Her image of wearing long shirts and pants now visible to everyone, metal jewelry glinting around her neck, her distinct abs peeking out from the gap.

While the bright red cloak billowed through the air, swirling like crashing red waves!

She rapped:

Ican'ttellyouwhatitreallyis (I can't tell you what this feeling really is)

Icanonlytellyouwhatitfeelslike (I can only describe the sensation)

Andrightnowthere'sasteelknifeinmywindpipe (It's like a steel knife stabbed into my windpipe)

Ican'tbreathebutIstillfightwhileIcanfight (I can hardly breathe but I'm still struggling)

Thunderous applause immediately erupted from the audience!

The visual impact and sense of rhythm had everyone involuntarily bouncing to the beat.

It was just as comments online said - you can always trust [Nan XiangWan] to deliver in her raps!

[Nan XiangWan]'s makeup today was also very bold. [Monica] once again brought out her specialty in wild styles, using thick and high contrast eye shadows.

And below her eyes, a red gemstone was painted.
