Chapter 78: Chapter 77 Tender Lines Chapter 78: Chapter 77 Tender Lines “BGM: I’m just afraid that I’ll fall in love with you,

Scared to let myself get too close,”

…

On stage, the singer Carl had already switched through several songs.

There were pop songs and folk songs, all rather soothing, perfectly fitting the atmosphere here.

It was a late April night in Yan City, gathered around a grill.

The two chatted about music, then comics, and eventually Japanese.

Hearing Tang Song utter a few simple Japanese phrases, Tian Jing’s eyes lit up, and she followed with some lines from Japanese anime.

She had taken Japanese classes in college out of interest, but since she hadn’t applied herself, her level was abysmal.

Seeing her interest, Tang Song continued the topic.

Their Japanese wasn’t great, but that made their conversation more entertaining, filled with laughter.

…

On stage, the music slowly came to a halt.

The handsome manager made his appearance again, microphone in hand, “As we know, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the people! Surely, among our customers tonight, there are some undiscovered talents.

Next, we have prepared a little game for everyone. We invite you to sing in the restaurant accompanied by our musician Carl.

Don’t worry, it doesn’t have to be the whole song, a verse will do! The table with the best performance will have their entire bill waived today!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the venue erupted with appreciative applause, cheers, and whistles.

“Alright, our staff members will now roam the restaurant with the microphone. Any customer who wishes to participate, just reach out and grab the mic! We welcome everyone to join with enthusiasm!”

“Let the game begin!”

Soon, two staff members, along with Carl, holding the microphone, walked among the patrons.

“I’ll go, I’ll do it.”

“Over here! Over here! Look this way!”

The patrons, mostly young couples, were very casual and bold in such an environment and atmosphere.

Suddenly, a girl with a round face snatched the microphone and after a brief chat with Carl, clear guitar chords rang out.

The girl with the round face winked at her boyfriend across the table and sang, “I have a dream like a rainbow after the rain, all my tears are swapped for smiles…”

With the confidence to grab the mic first, her voice was naturally good; melodious and steady, definitely karaoke queen material.

When the singing stopped, the patrons all around applauded.

Then, several young people actively grabbed the mic—most of them only sang the climactic parts of the songs, but they truly ignited the atmosphere

Laughter, singing, and the sound of taking pictures were continuous.

…

Watching the restaurant staff slowly draw near.

Tang Song, with his sharp eyes, spotted Carl’s guitar.

Originally, he had planned to ask Carl to borrow the guitar during his break, but now it seemed to save him the trouble.

He looked at Tian Jing, her eyes sparkling, and suggested, “Jing, why don’t you give it a try? Today you’re the host, and it would be fun to win a waiver this way. Plus, you’re so beautiful and your voice is so sweet; I think you have a high chance.”

Tian Jing smiled brightly, “Sure!”

After speaking, she stood up, got on her tiptoes, and waved at the staff, “Over here, over here! Handsome, look this way!”

She didn’t really care about the waiver; she just thought it would be fun to participate in the singing game in such an atmosphere.

If she could win the competition as well, that would be even more interesting.

Tian Jing, dressed in a white gown, sweet and lovely, had always been the focus of the entire restaurant. As she raised her voice,

Many eyes gathered in her direction, and some took the opportunity to point their cameras her way.

The staff’s eyes lit up, as their initial intention was to increase user engagement and promote the restaurant through this competition.

With such a beautiful woman participating, the discussion and spread of the event would skyrocket!

They briskly approached their table and didn’t even need to scramble; they proactively handed the microphone to her.

Carl, with his guitar slung over his back, showed an excited expression on his face.

He had noticed this girl while he was on stage, and now seeing her up close, she seemed even more stunningly beautiful.

Especially since she had an air of a well-behaved rich girl about her, which was his favorite type.

With a confident smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, Carl patted his guitar and said, “Miss, what song would you like to sing? As long as it’s not too obscure, I can play the accompaniment.”

Tian Jing bit her lip in thought for a moment and smiled, “How about something simple? Can we do ‘Tender Lines’?”

“Of course!” Carl tossed his hair lightly, “The female version of this song is also very nice to listen to. I’m looking forward to Miss’s performance.”

Just then, Tang Song directly spoke up, “Hello, I’d like to play the guitar to accompany my friend, is that okay?”

The event host was momentarily stunned before nodding happily, “Of course, very welcome!”

After all, they were their customers, and what he was asking for would likely add to the show’s effect. There was no reason for him to refuse.

Tian Jing blinked her bright eyes in surprise and exclaimed, “Song, you can play the guitar too?”

“Shall we team up to win the competition?” Tang Song flicked his fingers toward her.

“That would be wonderful!” Tian Jing unconsciously looked towards Tang Song’s ‘Attractive Man’s hand’, her legs gently rubbing beneath her skirt.

Such beautiful hands, and they can play the guitar, must be very flexible and strong, right?

That would be simply…

The smile on singer Carl’s face gradually faded.

At the host’s signal, he handed over his guitar.

He looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

Playing and singing by oneself was actually okay; even if you veered off, you could still recover.

But accompanying someone else was different; if you couldn’t keep up with the rhythm, it could all fall apart, with disastrous results.

Accepting the guitar from Carl, Tang Song bowed his head and gently stroked the strings, a joy and familiarity welling up from within.

The 41-inch folk guitar with an electric pickup box was connected directly to the sound system—the sound was loud and clear, perfect for this kind of performance setting.

A gentle breeze had started to blow on the terrace at some point, causing the canvas above the tables to sway slightly.

Tang Song sat down, placing the guitar on his thigh, with the head of the guitar pointing forward and the body forming a 45-degree angle with his body.

His left hand pressed the strings, and his right hand was positioned at the soundhole.

His movements were natural and confident, relaxed and nonchalant, looking very stylish. Numerous performances in the world of dreams had left him with no trace of timidity or hesitation, ignoring all eyes around him, he focused on holding the guitar.

Meanwhile, the evening breeze of April stirred his tousled hair and the hem of his clothes.

Special effects triggered.

In the warm yellow light, Tang Song with the guitar appeared cool and serene, melancholic and sentimental, a unique artistic aura enveloping him.

The diners who had previously been noisy quieted down, all eyes turning to the exceptionally charismatic Tang Song.

“I’m ready,” Tang Song nodded at her, his voice steady and calm.

Tian Jing nodded lightly, stepping forward to stand across from Tang Song, apparently wanting to watch him play the guitar.

The brightly lit high-rise buildings of the city, the immaculate moonlight, and the deep, sparkling starry sky all became his backdrop.

“Ding ding dong dong—”

Crisp and clean notes flowed from his fingertips, the chords coherent and precise, heavy with emotion.

Tian Jing’s heartbeat began to quicken, her hand holding the microphone tightening slightly.

What’s happening? What is this?

When Tang Song got his hands on the guitar, why did it feel like Ultraman with his transformation device?
