Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Chapter 150: She’s a Real Deal

Liu Man stopped moving, and her hands slowly dropped to her sides. Her body, which was as stiff as stone, gradually relaxed. Yu Zhan felt her changes and was very glad, and his arms wrapped around her tighter. His lips lightly got in contact with her hair, “I like you. I started liking you a long time ago.”

He then continued to hug her, silently waiting for her response.

Until he heard the girl in his arms make an almost unhearable “Mm.”

Yu Zhan suddenly felt as if the entire world had lit up, and the corners of his lips couldn’t help but curl up.

“Then, are you willing to become my girlfriend?”

Yu Zhan was pushing his luck, and his tone seemed as if he was coaxing a teenage girl. Liu Man, shrinking in his arms, was like a cat. She curled up into a soft shape, and her ears were so red it was as if they were bleeding.

“Mhm.”

Her voice was still very soft. If one didn’t listen closely, she couldn’t even be heard.

Since he had met his goal, Yu Zhan finally released Liu Man. He saw her face looking even more vivid than the spring blossoms, and she had her eyes lowered, not daring to look at Yu Zhan.

Yu Zhan teased, “You were way braver on the stage just now than you are right now. Am I that scary to make you this nervous?”

Liu Man’s eyelashes slightly quivered before she slowly looked up to look into his eyes. Her eyes were so pure and clean that his heart was wavering. He couldn’t resist but reach out his hands to lightly touch the corner of her eyes.

Liu Man did not dodge. She let Yu Zhan touch her, being as tractable as Daylight; she knew that, from this moment on, Yu Zhan was her boyfriend.

Yu Zhan had wanted to touch her eyes and cheeks since a very long time ago. After all kinds of taking advantages, he put her hair, which he messed up himself, behind her ears, tidied up her dress, which he messed up himself, and admired her shy look.

No wonder He Lushen, Song Junzhe, and the others were so passionate about being in a relationship.

It felt good to be in love.

He had never felt so lively and cheerful ever since his parents passed away as if his blood was boiling.

Liu Man and Li Xiaoru’s performance was so good that none of the other performances that same afternoon were able to interest the audience.

Almost as soon as they finished their performance, someone sent the video of their performance onto the internet. There were videos on both Wei Bo and Tik Tok, and these videos got shot from every direction and perspective. They were enough to make the netizens feel how impressive Liu Man and Li Xiaoru were.

All the titles of the videos were like this:

#Hanfu Goddess, not fearing the pressure, appears at Capital Music University’s concert#

#Astonishing! Hanfu Goddess plays western and Chinese instruments at the same time#

#Hanfu Goddess’s godly performance!#

#Hanfu Goddess flexes her Guqin skills! Chinese and western styles combined, so lit#

The netizens who had seen the video couldn’t help but all discussed how they felt:

“If we put Hanfu Goddess’s actions aside, I do admit I admire this ability of hers to play piano and Guqin at the same time.”

“I thought she was playing the Guzhen…”

“Don’t feel awkward. Many people mistook the instrument at the start too.”

“Playing the Guqin required a high level of self-cultivation. I’ve never seen anyone who can play the Guqin well in reality. Hanfu Goddess’s performance is breathtaking.”

“Don’t you guys feel like there seemed to be a fairy aura on her when Hanfu Goddess caressed the Guqin? It felt like she’s not a mortal and cannot be reached.”

“Well, I did not think of the story of ‘Butterfly Lovers’ when I heard her play. Instead, I thought of the perpetual friendship between Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi. Maybe it’s because I don’t understand this kind of high-tiered classical music, so I lack imagination.”

Just when netizens were all commenting over Liu Man’s Guqin performance, a long comment suddenly appeared and instantly got liked by thousands of people, causing it to get stickied on top:

“I’m a Guzhen tutor. There are many similarities between Guqin and Guzhen, so I would like to present my personal opinions. Firstly, Hanfu Goddess’s vibrato technique is too strong that I won’t ever be able to learn it in my whole life. Even if one’s talented, they won’t ever be able to reach that level without practicing for ten years or even more.

Secondly, the most important thing about playing a Guqin is to create artistic moods. She was able to do that, which made you think her playing sounds supreme. Western instruments do not need to create artistic moods. To play the Guqin well, you must be in good status and self-cultivate. How can a self-cultivated person do such dirty things? With this in mind, we can see that all this flooding, negative news about the Hanfu Goddess on the internet is not very credible. And from her playing, I felt the peacefulness and relaxation in her heart. She didn’t let any of the nonsense affect her. Thus, she had already accomplished merging herself with the Guqin when she performed. She’s truly a master at playing the Guqin.

Lastly, and also most importantly, Hanfu Goddess didn’t have long nails! She didn’t have long nails! She didn’t have long nails! I’m repeating this three times because it’s very important. You have no idea how scary it is if you play the Guzhen or the Guqin without wearing Yijia and without having long nails. If Hanfu Goddess let her nails grew longer, then it would be fine. However, Hanfu Goddess is a piano major. Everyone knows pianists cannot have long nails. For her to quickly switch between these two instruments, she cut her nails short. I have no idea how painful it was for her when she did the vibrato on the strings with her right hand. She must’ve felt horrible! Notice in the end, when she thanked the audience, her right hand was clenched. She must’ve wanted to hide the blood on her fingers.

Hanfu Goddess has made so many contributions to this performance. How can she possibly be a useless gold digger as the internet describes her to be? My friends and all the netizens, I want to tell you that you can truly understand a person from their music. I will vouch for this girl with my thirty years of music knowledge that she’s a good girl.”

“Mhm. I am a piano student, so I will analyze Hanfu Goddess from how she played the piano. I must admit that her partner, who played the piano, is extremely impressive. The way her fingers moved was nimble, fast, and accurate. She has high-tiered skills, and she definitely can reach the level of a professional piano performer.

Compared with her, Hanfu Goddess does have rather bad skills in techniques, but she’s not too sucky. Hanfu Goddess’s piano playing sounds steady and not impetuous at all. All of her notes were accurate and on the beat, not to mention her playing connected and cooperated very well with the main melody. She played the second part anyway in this ensemble, and she was supposed to be cooperating with the main melody; she couldn’t attract too much attention. So I think Hanfu Goddess’s piano level is already very good. If anyone else thinks Hanfu Goddess’s piano skills are very sucky, then before you doubt her, please play a piano piece yourself and upload it onto the internet so we can see how good you are.”

This comment was also stickied on top.

The two professional comments made all the onlookers learn a lot. No wonder even them, amateurs, thought Hanfu Goddess’s performance was impressive. Hanfu Goddess did have some hidden talents!
