Chapter 167: Fellow Townsman Meets Fellow Townsman, Both Eyes Full of Tears
Jiang Che, after buying the tickets with Xiao Qingge, walked straight into the stadium. By this time, it was already packed with people, mostly Song Tao’s obsessed fans and some young couples.
Jiang Che, accompanied by Xiao Qingge, squeezed through the crowd and found seats at the front of the stadium. It was Xiao Qingge’s first time at such a place, and she curiously turned her head to look around.
Seeing the excited faces of the young girls, she couldn’t understand their enthusiasm since she had never been a fan of anyone.
“What’s the matter? Haven’t been to such a place before?” Seeing Xiao Qingge’s curious eyes, Jiang Che asked, somewhat surprised.
Although her family background wasn’t as good as his, she was still wealthy by ordinary standards, so it was unusual for her not to have visited such a place.
“Since graduating from university, I’ve been busy with work and never had the time.”
Jiang Che nodded, understanding after hearing her explanation. He didn’t ask more questions and leaned back in his seat, quietly waiting for Song Tao to appear, ignoring the noisy surroundings.
…
After about ten minutes, a young man in his twenties walked onto the stage at the center of the stadium. His appearance immediately elicited waves of cheers from the audience.
“Song Tao, my idol!”
“Tao, I’ll have your babies!”
Hearing the voices around him, Jiang Che looked up at the stage.
“System, show his attribute panel.”
Main Character: Song Tao
Cultivation: None
Identity: Transmigrator
Luck: 3000
Skills: Advanced Singing, Basic Piano Skills…
Golden Finger: King of Entertainment System
Plot: Reborn, I Became the Top Star of the Chinese Music Scene.
“Does the host want to accept Song Tao’s plot?”
“Decline…” Without thinking, Jiang Che rejected the system’s suggestion. He already knew the typical plot for such protagonists.
After being reborn, they discovered that this world lacked the legendary stars from their previous life and used their lyrics to achieve fame in the Chinese music scene.
They would punch young idols, kick rich second-generation heirs, and hook up with all the female stars in the circle, playing games with their brain-dead fans.
“Didn’t expect this guy to be a transmigrator…” Seeing the confident Song Tao on stage, Jiang Che was somewhat surprised.
He initially thought Song Tao had simply gained memories from a past life, but it turned out they were fellow townsmen from another world.
When fellow townsmen meet, their eyes fill with tears. Since they were fellow townsmen, Jiang Che naturally couldn’t treat him poorly. He’d personally send him on his way.
“Everyone, please quiet down. Thank you for coming to my concert.” Song Tao smiled warmly, looking around and speaking loudly.
As his voice fell, the audience stopped shouting, showing how obedient his fanbase was.
“Today, I bring you a new song I recently created. It’s called ‘By the Bonfire.’ Please enjoy.” As Song Tao’s voice fell, the musicians behind him started playing. Song Tao coughed twice and began to sing.
“You are still by the bonfire of your childhood, looking at the moon in the sky…”
“The North Star points your way, so you won’t lose direction at night…”
“You won’t be lonely in any silent night, imagining wandering…”
…
The crowd was enraptured by Song Tao’s singing, their expressions intoxicated as if hearing the voice of an angel.
Jiang Che also glanced at him, surprised by his talent. Although not as good as the original singer he knew, it was still passable and didn’t ruin the original song.
As the song ended, Song Tao looked at the audience’s enraptured expressions and smiled contentedly.
This song “By the Bonfire” had met his expectations, stirring the audience’s emotions and allowing him to gain prestige points.
He was a transmigrator from Blue Star who had come to this parallel world, discovering that the familiar songs from his previous life were unknown here. Just then, he awakened his system.
As long as he could gain prestige points from people, he could buy various items from the system’s mall, including company shares, villas, luxury cars, and special medicines that enhanced the body.
In just over a month, he had used familiar songs from his previous life to gain a lot of prestige points, raising his status.
He had become a rising star in the Chinese music scene, with numerous luxury cars and villas under his name.
“Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining 10,580 prestige points.” Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Song Tao was overjoyed.
Coughing a few times, he began to sing again, intending to milk as much prestige as he could this time!
“Next, I’ll sing my hit song ‘Blue and White Porcelain.'”
…
“Young Master Jiang, do you not like his singing?” Seeing Jiang Che’s disinterested look, Xiao Qingge asked curiously.
She thought Song Tao’s singing was pretty good, especially “Blue and White Porcelain,” which easily drew people into the misty rain of Jiangnan.
“Garbage.” Jiang Che sneered. Song Tao’s version of “Blue and White Porcelain” couldn’t compare to the original by Jay Chou. Song Tao could never master that unique theatrical tone.
Hearing Jiang Che’s evaluation, Xiao Qingge wisely said no more, seeing the look of disgust on his face.
“I can’t listen to this garbage anymore.” Unable to bear it, Jiang Che got up and left. Since this guy had polluted his ears, it was only fair to send him to his death.
Xiao Qingge quickly followed Jiang Che out.
…
“Young Master Jiang, wait for me…” Outside the stadium’s entrance, Xiao Qingge caught up with Jiang Che, panting slightly.
“Why didn’t you stay to listen?” Jiang Che raised an eyebrow, puzzled.
He had noticed she seemed to enjoy the song earlier. Jiang Che could understand; the song was good, but the singing was terrible. Having heard the original, he couldn’t stand Song Tao’s wailing.
“Since you brought me here, of course, I’ll leave with you.” Xiao Qingge brushed a strand of hair from her forehead, smiling charmingly.
She could listen to songs anytime, but time with Jiang Che was limited. Since he was the eldest young master of the Jiang family, he couldn’t be with her all the time.
To fall in love with him as soon as possible, Xiao Qingge felt it was necessary to spend more time with Jiang Che. She didn’t want to deceive herself. Although this was a transaction, she hoped to find a shining point in Jiang Che that she could be fascinated by.
Jiang Che’s noble temperament couldn’t be faked. There must be something special about him; she just hadn’t discovered it yet.
“Then let me take you home.” Jiang Che, unaware of her thoughts, opened the Bugatti’s door for Xiao Qingge to get in. He then got into the driver’s seat, floored the accelerator, and headed towards the Xiao family home.
