The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her! - Chapter 18

Chapter 18: Talent Skill: Elbowing Outward!

Xiao Yu glared at Qi Yun, who seemed utterly innocent.

“It’s all your fault!” She blamed him.

“Before, Qingxue was shy! Now she’s playing rogue! You must have taught her!”

Qi Yun glanced at Lian Qingxue, who was hiding her face in embarrassment, and patted her head.

“What you don’t understand is that this is a talent of you girls—”

“Elbowing outward!”

Upon hearing this, Lian Qingxue was so embarrassed that she almost buried her head under the table. Xiao Yu’s eyes bulged, almost crying.

Indeed, she had brought a group of friends to protect her best friend, yet her best friend was ready to wrap herself up and be taken away by the opponent!

Isn’t this elbowing outward?

…

After dinner, Qi Yun didn’t see Lian Qingxue.

Xiao Yu told him that Lian Qingxue had gone to change her clothes for the upcoming performance.

“Aren’t you performing?” Qi Yun asked Xiao Yu, who had been following him around.

“Not everyone has to perform, I don’t know how to do anything, so of course I don’t need to perform!”

Xiao Yu said this with her head held high and her hands on her hips.

The time for the performance was approaching.

Qi Yun saw a TV station van driving into the orphanage, followed by a nanny car.

“Do you have celebrities coming here?”

Xiao Yu glanced at it, seemingly used to it, and said casually, “Every year, one or two stars come for performances and photos, but it’s actually useless.”

“Our orphanage has always been sponsored by some caring enterprises, so the TV station often comes, which is equivalent to giving them some advertising. Sometimes there will be celebrities.”

Qi Yun nodded, seeing a twenty-something man descending from the nanny car. He looked like a pretty boy, perhaps a star.

However, Qi Yun was sure he didn’t recognize him, after all, the people he remembered were probably famous many years later.

When the TV crew had set up the camera, the performance was about to start.

The venue was very simple, just a small open space with speakers on both sides.

The audience, including Qi Yun, sat around the “stage” on small plastic chairs.

The first performer was that male star, singing.

The first sentence of the song made Qi Yun’s stomach churn.

Looking at Xiao Yu, her pupils were dilated, and she seemed to be in great discomfort.

By the second line, Qi Yun wisely covered his ears and helped Xiao Yu put on her hat.

“This is too awful!” Xiao Yu couldn’t help but complain.

There are singers who, at first glance, you can tell they can’t sing well.

But it’s not until they open their mouth that you realize how bad it really is!

After the male star finished his performance, Qi Yun felt everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

When watching the performances of the children from the orphanage, Qi Yun felt like each of them was a talented singer!

When the fourth act was over, Xiao Yu excitedly said, “Qingxue’s next, watch closely!”

He perked up and looked toward the center of the stage.

A figure of a girl in white appeared faintly in the darkness behind the lights.
