His voice was a baritone. It was clean, rich, and melodious. It was like the wind blowing through the waves, hitting the shore and splashing the snow-white waves.
The audience was so engrossed in his singing that they held their breaths. They were afraid that if they exhaled too loudly, they would interrupt this heavenly sound.
The accompaniment for him backstage was a guqin. The melody of the guqin was leisurely, and it complemented his singing very well.
When the song ended, the audience cheered.
Countless pearls fell onto the stage like rain. The young man obviously knew martial arts. He stood there without moving. The pearls were falling from the sky, but none of them landed on him.
Gu Xijiu stood closer to the front. The people around her were shouting Lan Fei's name like crazy and throwing money at him.
As Gu Xijiu did not have money, she just stood there and watched. She only clapped twice.
Because of the crowd around her, Gu Xijiu's calmness seemed a little out of the ordinary. Lan Fei's singer looked at everything calmly. So much money was thrown at him, but he did not even move his eyebrows. He was as calm as a mountain.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on Gu Xijiu, and when their eyes met, Gu Xijiu openly looked at him and smiled at him in a friendly manner.
Lan Fei's eyebrows moved. He raised his hand and made a gesture. The crowd immediately quieted down.
"That lady …" Lan Fei suddenly spoke. "Are you not satisfied with my singing?" His voice was also very clear and magnetic, like jade rubbing against each other.
Gu Xijiu looked around and pointed at herself. "Are you asking me?"
Lan Fei nodded. "Yes."
Gu Xijiu was innocent. "How did you know that I was not satisfied with your song?"
"You were very calm. You only clapped twice symbolically."
Gu Xijiu was speechless. So he was not as crazy as the other fans.
"I don't have money." Gu Xijiu told the truth. Her voice was clear. "So I can't throw pearls at you."
The crowd was speechless.
Merpeople liked to live in luxury. Most of them were rich. Even the poorest of them often had hundreds of giant pearls on them. Moreover, they valued their reputation very much. Even if they were so poor that they could not even open a pot, they would not let outsiders see it. Smearing some fish oil on their mouth could also show that they were living a good life, and the clothes they wore were not bad either.
Gu Xijiu was the first person to say that she had no money in public.
Lan Fei did not give up. "You don't even have a pearl?"
Gu Xijiu smiled embarrassedly, "Indeed, not a single one."
Lan Fei, "…"
There was a hush from the crowd. It was probably because they had never seen someone like Gu Xijiu who was so confident even though she was poor. Besides, judging from her attire, she was obviously a noble girl. How could she be penniless?
Lan Fei seemed to think of something. "Is this your first day here?"
"Not bad."
Once again, the crowd booed him.
"Did the young lady come here to watch the singing competition just to watch the fun?"
"No, I'm here to earn money." Gu Xijiu still told the truth.
Lan Fei could not help but laugh. "How do you want to earn money?"
"Sing."
Everyone: "…"
The official in charge of registration said, "This young lady has also signed up for the song competition. Miss Gu, it's your turn to go on stage."
