When the lights dimmed again and she disappeared from the stage, the lingering trembling final note seemed to touch everyone’s most sensitive nerve endings, bringing tears to many eyes.
Even Wei Qinghuan had reddened eyes.
She knew Lin Xiaoman’s capabilities very well. Although she had some foundation, there was still a gap compared to her.
From the first competition, Wei Qinghuan had noticed this timid girl. She could see that Lin Xiaoman had musical and dance foundations, but because she wasn’t comfortable on stage, her performance was much weaker.
When everyone looked down on Lin Xiaoman, she had stood up to help her.
So when she saw Lin Xiaoman using her bodice to attract attention, Wei Qinghuan felt betrayed.
Wei Qinghuan was angry. She wanted to eliminate Lin Xiaoman, this person without principles.
However, now she realized she might have been wrong.
As Lin Xiaoman said, with her abilities, she would never need to resort to such petty tricks.
In that instant, Wei Qinghuan felt like she had fallen into an ice cave, knowing she was about to lose her trainee status.
★ Chapter Four: Contract
Lin Xiaoman returned to the stage. From the audience’s enthusiastic reaction and Wei Qinghuan’s dejected face, she could already see the result.
She had won this round.
This was not a stage for finding professional singers.
While vocal skills were important, they were not absolute.
The stage’s presentation required both singing and the performer’s performance.
Lin Xiaoman understood that her singing was not as good as Wei Qinghuan’s, but she had dance and acting skills. Realizing this, she asked Teacher He to help her find a dance instructor.
Due to the tight schedule, she could only quickly rehearse all the movements with the dance instructor. However, with her acting skills, portraying the life of a legendary woman was not difficult.
At this point, the judges began their commentary.
One of them stood up and shouted: “Lin Xiaoman! I’m voting for Lin Xiaoman! She’s simply amazing. I look forward to seeing more of her performances!”
Lin Xiaoman politely bowed: “Thank you for your support.”
“Xiaoman’s performance was indeed surprising,” the second speaker was Xie Xue’er, “but I feel that Qinghuan’s singing was more touching, perfectly presenting the song ‘Legend’. So I vote for Qinghuan.”
