I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 315: Chapter 314: This Family Member Is Extraordinary

Surpassing the final solo?

Chai Xiaohu shook her head, the smile on her lips was very sarcastic. With Li Ying around, how could she have a comeback?

Moreover, she had already had someone look at the sheet music. Although ”Xiyun” is a nice song, the sheet music is very simple, barely departing from a cappella.

The quality of a song, apart from the singer themselves, heavily relies on the accompaniment. Different instruments offer different effects. This song is very suitable for guzheng accompaniment. Yuan Guiling might have had good intentions, but unfortunately, Li Ying would never really accompany her.

She was prepared to accompany Chai Xiaohu with this simple sheet music if she had to, ensuring Chai Xiaohu’s advantages wouldn’t be showcased, and she wouldn’t overshadow her own final solo.

Li Ying had a good plan, considering she was the only one in the entire station who could play the guzheng, and here ”play” means playing well, not like a hobbyist such as Beisitian.

Chai Xiaohu glanced at Beisitian’s back and secretly sighed. Thinking of outshining Li Ying with such a nondescript piece seemed laughable.

Beisitian clearly sensed that Chai Xiaohu lacked motivation. Upon glancing at the sheet music, it seemed there needed to be a change at the start. Otherwise, how could they surprise Li Ying with Chai Xiaohu’s current state?

”Xiyun,” both from its name to its style, is a song with a classic feel. The entire piece has both high and soaring moments as well as low and lyrical ones. The best part is naturally the climax, bright and lively, with a clear rhythm, repeating three times.

This part sounds good but is also the hardest to play, requiring several variations. If played perfectly, they would result in a very pleasant tune that could elevate the performance significantly.

The two went on stage, and because Beisitian had no clothes to change into and didn’t want to wear Li Ying’s, she kept on her cheongsam. After all, it was a classical music performance, and although she was wearing a T-shirt with suspenders and jeans today, it didn’t quite match.

”Hey, look, isn’t that Medical Assistant Bei from the health team?”

”It’s the wife!”

”Didn’t she just play the flute? She can also play the guzheng?!”

”Her flute playing was so good, I wonder how her guzheng performance will be.”

”At barely over twenty, how could she have the energy for so many skills? Having one presentable skill is impressive enough. Didn’t the Host mention it’s a temporary substitution? It’s probably of average quality.”

Among the family members, many were discussing.

Li Shuzhen, Zhou Chunlai, and Li Mingrong exchanged glances, each seeing the bitter smile in the other’s eyes. Who would’ve thought Xiao Bei would sing so well, play the flute so marvelously, and now even play the guzheng!

The other family members, not being particularly close to Beisitian, felt somewhat envious, seeing her pretty looks accompanied by so many talents.

Beside Li Gui’e was Feng Yuwei. Although she harbored no more thoughts about Luo Xudong, she still felt the need to compare herself with Beisitian whenever they met.

She had come specifically for the show, especially curious about Beisitian’s choir performance, wanting to see how she’d do. Before she got to hear her sing, she was already witnessing all her performances.

Feng Yuwei was at a loss for words. Regardless of how Beisitian played the guzheng, just from her flute performance earlier, she couldn’t compare.

If it were just a slight difference, she might have continued to compare herself. But realizing the widening gap, her competitive spirit faded considerably.

On the family side, there was a lot of discussion, and the entire 9th Company was also abuzz. Everyone knew the beautiful woman playing guzheng on stage was the wife of Deputy Squad Leader Luo, but no one expected the wife to be so talented. They looked at Luo Xudong standing against the wall with envy.

Luo Xudong continued leaning against the wall, observing Beisitian on stage with a faint, meaningful smile on his lips.

Even though he’d been away from home for so many years, he knew, Doctor Bei’s daughter never had such talents. How did his Sitiang acquire them?

Chai Xiaohu stood on the stage, looking at the expectant eyes below, feeling none of the past joy and happiness.

Just then, with a ’buzz’, the guzheng behind her sounded, startling Chai Xiaohu. She resisted the urge to look back; this sound from the instrument shouldn’t be there.

Soon, the guzheng accompaniment began. The soothing and gentle melody poured into Chai Xiaohu’s heart like a warm current, strolling and lingering, infusing a trace of warmth into her somewhat cold heart.

This accompaniment...

Chai Xiaohu could no longer resist and turned to look. She saw Beisitian lifting her head, her brilliant eyes shimmering with a light she had never seen before, smiling at her.

Seeing this smile, Chai Xiaohu couldn’t help but recall the words she said before going on stage.

Chai Xiaohu turned back, convinced that singing would no longer ripple her Heart Lake, but now waves of ripples began to spread.

This feeling...

It seemed Chai Xiaohu’s blood flow quickened. She opened her mouth, her clear voice diffusing through the microphone across the entire hall instantly.

Chai Xiaohu’s voice was clear and sweet, pleasing and not cloying. The entire hall seemed enveloped in warm sunshine, with everyone’s faces bearing an unnoticed faint smile.

Chai Xiaohu seemed to have found the feeling of the past. Previously, she was like a stranded fish, but now, with Beisitian’s accompaniment, she seemed to return to the ocean, free to swim and play as she wished, freely and unrestrained!

This feeling was even deeper than before!

At this moment, Chai Xiaohu’s singing became increasingly melodious. During the soaring part of the melody, her voice carried an unprecedented joy!

Both the rhythm and melody reached their peak as Beisitian’s jade-like fingers skillfully played, the tones changing.

Previously, whenever she reached this part, Chai Xiaohu seemed to face an insurmountable waterfall, which was something she had once struggled with but never succeeded. At this moment, it was as if she leapt past the dragon gate, effortlessly ascending, reaching the very top!

Chai Xiaohu sang with abandon, sang freely, and those below were similarly immersed, their faces entirely focused. Hearing such beautiful and enjoyable music was a delightful experience for them.

In the lounge, the crowd was immersed in the exceptionally melodious song, Yuan Guiling’s eyes revealing surprise. Chai Xiaohu was revitalized!

Not only revitalized but her skills had surpassed her previous level!

Being an art soldier herself, Yuan Guiling understood that this accompaniment had broken through the barrier that once impeded her, allowing an artistic elevation during the performance. It could be said that Chai Xiaohu had vast potential in singing!

That family member... truly extraordinary!

No one noticed Li Ying’s grim expression at this moment.
