Chapter 43 -43 She’s the one!!!_1

The previously noisy meeting room suddenly fell deathly silent.

She had barely sung the third line when an older leader suddenly burst into tears, hastily lowering his head and covering his eyes with his fist.

Many people couldn’t understand the emotions of the older generation.

Nor could they understand the passion in their parents’ hearts that could never be extinguished.

Song Yunuan was one such example.

She could be moved but couldn’t understand the tears in the eyes of an old man on the judging panel.

It seemed a bit much.

It was just a song after all.

Moreover, as far as Song Ting knew, at least twenty contenders before her had chosen this song for their audition.

But looking at them, they didn’t seem to be moved time after time either.

At this moment, the door to the meeting room was open.

After all, it was the last audition, so the atmosphere was more relaxed.

Song Yunuan held her little brother’s hand, originally intending for him to stay outside with their grandfather, but the little guy wouldn’t have it.

And since he wasn’t hungry or thirsty, he had simply stayed until now.

At this moment, the siblings were staring blankly at their cousin who, once she started singing, didn’t seem nervous at all.

It wasn’t just the two of them watching.

All eyes were on Song Ting.

Several staff members in the hallway and a few parents waiting for news were initially stunned, then they too crowded at the door.

There was no one maintaining order at the moment; everyone was captivated by this unique and beautiful voice.

According to the rules, one only had to sing a short section, and Song Ting stopped singing just in time.

Yet, the meeting room remained as silent as a tomb.

Song Ting stood there, puzzled and anxious, turning back to look at her niece, only to see the doorway filled with people.

In the next instant, Old Ghu spoke up, “It’s her!!!”

Song Ting felt her breath catch.

What does that mean?

She didn’t understand!

Yet deep down she did understand, she just couldn’t believe it!

As Old Ghu’s words fell, a calm male voice chimed in, “I agree as well!”

This was said by a handsome young man from the county cultural bureau who wore glasses and sat at the edge of the judging panel.

Lin Xuezhu, an actress from the cultural troupe among the crowd, was suddenly taken aback.

She looked incredulously at Lew Yuan on the judging panel.

Lew Yuan was also one of the judges.

Currently, he was intently watching Song Ting.

Lew Yuan came from a family of officials and had relatives in the province, and recently, he had been somewhat romantically involved with Lin Xuezhu.

Knowing the fickleness of men, Lin Xuezhu had been stringing him along all this while.

Clutching her fists tightly, she cursed under her breath, “Bitch, how dare you seduce Lew Yuan.”

As the judges whispered among themselves, Lin Xuezhu stepped forward, her face frosty with apparent anger, “I disagree!”

The crowd, which had been entranced, was startled by her voice.

Song Yunuan turned to look at Lin Xuezhu who had stepped forward; the woman was in her twenties, very glamorous, and indeed had a good image.

Old Ghu frowned, and Zuo Shanhong beside him quickly asked, “Xuezhu, if you have any objections, just say them.

We will definitely consider them.”

“This Song Ting has bad intentions.

She’s from the countryside, out of touch with information, so how could she be the first one to sign up?

Unless someone leaked the information to her, I refuse to believe it.

I demand the organizing committee conduct a thorough investigation; we cannot let the guilty escape.”

Song Yunuan immediately stood up, pointing at the director with the red paper, “Comrade, did you notify me and my cousin in advance when you posted the notice?”

The director immediately shook his head, not wanting to be falsely accused, and firmly denied, “I don’t even know you.”

“Then, all the leaders present, who among you knows me and my cousin?”

Old Ghu laughed, “I certainly don’t know you.”

Others also shook their heads with amused smiles.

Lew Yuan glanced indifferently at Lin Xuezhu, whose face was flushed, and said, “I can also assure you, this is the first time I’ve met you.”

Song Yunuan looked at Lin Xuezhu and asked, “Comrade, do you have anything else to say?”

Lin Xuezhu hadn’t expected that seemingly harmless young girl to be so tricky.

She had to admit, Song Ting had a natural talent for singing and dance, speaking with nervousness, but once she began to sing, she immersed herself entirely in the song.

A flash of jealousy crossed her eyes, and Lin Xuezhu sneered, “If you’re so capable, sing another one, this doesn’t count.”

Someone immediately applauded, “Great, give us another one!”

It was actually a parent standing at the doorway.

Song Yunuan smiled warmly, “Little girl, don’t be afraid!” ƒreewebɳovel.com

Song Ting asked, “Then, may I sing ‘My Motherland’?”

Old Ghu kindly responded, “You may.”

Lin Xuezhu stood aside with a dark expression, occasionally glancing at Lew Yuan, and noticed that his gaze was fixed on Song Ting.

A hint of spiteful venom and jealousy flashed in Lin Xuezhu’s eyes.

Song Yunuan’s smile faded, a heaviness settled in her heart, this woman who popped up to find fault and target her niece, someone had called her Xuezhu earlier.

Could she be one of the antagonistic faction?

One of the antagonistic faction members was a deputy leader, the middle-aged man seated at the judge’s table who was supporting someone named Xuezhu, his name was Zuo Shanhong.

Another member of the antagonistic faction was named Jia Xuezhu.

Whether the pronunciation was Zhu or Xue, it was hard to be certain.

But the niece had never interacted with her, so why the hatred?

Could it be because of the change in the plot?

Song Yunuan discreetly withdrew her gaze and turned to look at her niece standing in the center of the room.

Song Ting cleared her throat, and for some reason, she wasn’t the least bit nervous now.

Old Ghu asked, “Can you sing it all the way through?”

Song Ting nodded, “I can.”

“You can skip the choral part.”

Song Ting nodded again.

The kindly old leader said, “Sing, then!”

Under the gaze of many expectant eyes, a beautiful, melodious voice that seemed to paint a picture echoed once more in the conference room.

“…A wide river with rolling waves, the wind blows the fragrance of rice over both banks…”

Whether focused, jealous, or admiring, everyone now fell silent.

Song Yunuan looked on proudly at her niece.

Her niece was beautiful, and when she sang this song, her voice became sweet and clear, as if letting you see beautiful fields and wide rivers, as well as people’s laughter.

Standing there, it was as if she was shining.

The niece that Teacher Zhu Mann wanted to take as a disciple for her obvious talent, how could she not have true ability?

Song Ting relaxed, and both her voice and emotions opened up.

In Old Ghu’s eyes lay irrepressible admiration and excitement.

The last to perform, yet indisputably the first!

Then, the unexpected happened.

Song Ting had just finished her solo part and was about to continue into the second verse when, unexpectedly, the performers from the cultural troupe standing by the wall spontaneously began to sing.

“…This is the beautiful motherland where I grew up, in this vast land, everywhere there are bright sceneries…”

They had automatically started to provide backup for Song Ting.

This scene was too shocking; words could hardly describe the atmosphere in the conference room at that moment.

Lin Xuezhu hadn’t expected this turn of events, her face a mixture of green and white; she bit her lip in secret and quietly retreated to the back of the crowd.

The thought of her providing backup singing for that wretched girl was out of the question!
