Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

On the stage, Han Zixin had seemed frozen when his gaze fell on the judge on the second chair. He felt as if he had forgotten all the training that he had gotten. He wanted to run from there. He didn’t want to sing at all. He wanted to go back. He shouldn’t sing.

But when he looked at the faces of his concerned bandmates, he closed his eyes. With his broken heart, he could spoil the future of other students. Even if he couldn’t sing, he had to. Even though his hands were shaking, he had to play the guitar. His legs were giving up? He had to hold on.

His school, teachers and friends were rooting for him.

As the music began playing, he closed his eyes and took deep breaths. He could do this.

🎶 I never believed in love at first sight.

I used to think fairy tales were all lies…. 🎶

Even though his aura was depressing, his voice sounded as if the warm ray of sun had fallen on the sun on a cold wintery day. There was something so magical, sweet and fascinating about his voice that one couldn’t help but want to shut all the noise only to hear him.

🎶 Loving you has seen the sun through the rain_.

Cause

Holding your hand so warm

On a cold winter’s day

You make the world around brighter

You lift me up higher ðŸŽ¶

His eyes were closed and he was swaying while singing and playing the guitar. The people in the audience didn’t realise how a music competition became a concert. The boy just has this energy that makes them stand up and dance and sing with him.

Seeing the environment, the instrumentalists also relaxed and they began enjoying themselves as if they were doing a concert.

“He is amazing, isn’t he?” Judge Liu said with a fascinated look on his phase.

Yang Zi smiled and nodded her head. “Today, we are seeing a lot of idols in the industry having an upper hand above the real talents. This boy has it all– face, talent and ambition to be on the top. I wonder how he is not signed by a company?”

“Goddess Yang has praised someone genuinely for the first time, “Judge Chen chuckled.

“Mr Chen, you know what I’m saying, ” Yang Zi said. “You rejected Yang Mei, my student. I told you she has potential. Not just potential but talent too.”

“Goddess Yang, Yang Mei might have a beautiful face, talent and potential. She lacks ambition, ” Judge Chen said. “She doesn’t want to make mainstream music. I dare not sign her. I don’t want to put resources on someone who wants to be unique. You are one in a million that survived the brutality of this industry with your uniqueness. But I can’t say anything about Yang Mei. As for this boy, as long as he signs with my company and begins as an idol, I can make his life.”

They clapped when the performance ended.

Without any doubt, Jingyuan High was the winner.

When they were given the trophy, everyone backstage hugged and shed some tears for the victory of the kids.

Yang Mei appeared on the stage as the mentor and music teacher of the Jingyuan High School.

Judge Chen was surprised to see Yang Mei there. He was even more shocked to find out that the boy he liked so much was trained by no one else but Yang Mei.

After the interview and photo session, the competition ended.

“Can you set up the meeting with the male lead singer of the Jingyuan High?” Mr Liu asked the anchor.

“Right away, sir, ” The anchor said and someone went out to call Han Zixin.

When Han Zixin opened the door to the guest room, he saw three people sitting inside. He didn’t try to look weird and walked in with a blank face. He didn’t need to show anyone that he was nervous.

“You are a very good singer, ” Yang Zi smiled at the boy.

Han Zixin only nodded his head. He didn’t want to cause a scene by ignoring the Nation’s goddess. What’s so good about her? Hah, even his best friend had been a National crush.

“Young boy, have you ever thought of joining an entertainment company?” Mr Chen came straight to the point.

“No, ” Han Zixin’s reply was crisp and clear.

The three of them startled.

“Then, why do you come to the competition?” Judge Liu asked.

“My best friend wanted me to win the competition and so I did, ” Han Zixim blankly replied.

“Young boy, don’t be funny, ” Judge Chen said with a huff. “If your best friend asks you to jump into we’ll, will you jump into well?”

“Yes, ” Han Zixim replied without thinking.

“You can make a future in this field, ” Judge Liu told him in a very calm tone.

“I hate music, ” Han Zixin told them. “I hate it more than anything.”

“Then, why did you sing?” Yang Zi couldn’t help but ask.

“I don’t know how to calm myself without music. It’s my coping mechanism, ” Han Zixin replied, looking straight at Judge Liu. “Music is instilled in my veins. I can’t part with it even if I hate it more than anyone. Good sirs, you are wasting your time and opportunity on someone who doesn’t even need it.”

“This is Yang Mei’s student. Eccentric just like her, ” Mr Chen scoffed. “That girl is trouble. Wherever she goes, she only knows how to create factions.”

“Mr Chen, you have no right talking about Yang Mei like this, “Yang Zi said in a stern tone. ” She refused you because she knew that both of you would never be able to work. Let the boy go. Not everyone wants music to make something of themselves. To some, it’s a sacred art that they don’t want to share with anyone. “

A/N: If you want to hear this song, it’s from the drama Go Go quid. And it is the English version of the ost of a song sung by Laurence Larson. It is really a very beautiful song.
