Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 731 - 730: Have to Admit Defeat

Upon seeing her for the first time, Zhen Yu realized that the female host was extremely beautiful! Saying she was dazzlingly radiant wouldn’t be an exaggeration!

In such a contrast, the male host standing next to her seemed quite average by comparison.

Of course, it also had to do with the fact that the boy named Xing Ming didn’t particularly stand out in looks; at best, he appeared somewhat handsome after some grooming. Although Zhen Yu had only glanced at him briefly in the internet cafe, she still recognized him. This was the boy who had approached her at the internet cafe today!

The thought flashed through Zhen Yu’s mind and was immediately cast aside.

After all, he was just an irrelevant person, so Zhen Yu focused her attention more on the female host, especially during this evening’s event.

The two hosts quickly finished their opening lines! Then the first performers, who were there for the opening dance, immediately took the stage, and everyone’s gaze was promptly drawn to them.

Everyone watched the stage intently, even Zhen Yu’s three roommates were engrossed!

So Zhen Yu, spoiled by the variety of shows in later years, started watching along with them.

Normally, such a welcome party would last about two hours. So around eight o’clock, when it was almost reaching the prime time slot of the evening, the party was heating up.

After the previous act, the female host came onto the stage alone.

The hosts had been alternating between solo and duo all this time, so it didn’t raise any concerns, until she announced the name of the next song and its singer...

——

"Ah! Xing Ming! Xing Ming is going to perform! I’ve heard that he sings beautifully! And the songs he sings are all original..."

There was no need to guess; this excited tone and these rumors were surely whispered by You Qing.

Zhen Yu’s other two roommates were very curious and immediately started bombarding You Qing with questions on both sides.

Only Zhen Yu was left standing in place, quietly contemplating.

At this moment, the song title that the female host had announced kept echoing in her head—"Lilac."

It wasn’t surprising that Zhen Yu couldn’t immediately recall why the song seemed familiar. The song was so old that she only vaguely remembered having heard such a song in her memories...

Fortunately, the stage soon filled with the melancholy prelude of a guitar, and then Zhen Yu heard those long-lost lyrics.

"You say that you love the lilac most, because your name is the same as it..."

"Holy crap! It’s this song!"

Zhen Yu suddenly realized—it was that song that people sing for the deceased, ugh, ugh, ugh! She wasn’t a dead person though!

"It sounds so lovely!" Shi Mei and Sun Shuhan, Zhen Yu’s other two roommates, instantly switched into Flower Fanatic mode!

"Yes, yes! It’s really lovely! And he’s playing the guitar and singing by himself! I love guys who can play the guitar!"

Fortunately, You Qing was just a gossip lover. Compared to the other two, she remained quite rational.

"Yep! It looks like the rumors are not false at all! This Xing Ming is indeed talented! What do you think, Zhen Yu?"

"Me? Heh..."

What could Zhen Yu say? Exposing the truth was out of the question, but she didn’t want to hypocritically agree either!

So all she could do was to smile awkwardly yet courteously...

——

However, there was a section of the song lyrics that repeated! Upon this repetition, Zhen Yu felt that something was a bit off!

She remembered the lyrics were supposed to be "flowers blooming by the grave," how did it turn into "in front of the door" when it got to Xing Ming?!

So Zhen Yu listened carefully again and confirmed it was indeed "in front of the door"!

In front of the door... Well, it’s a good change anyway! At least it’s now a song for the living!

And so, amidst Zhen Yu’s continual inward sneers, Xing Ming finally repeated enough times and then stood up amidst the excited cheers of the audience.

Zhen Yu thought this guy was about to take his bows and leave the stage! Turns out he just bowed in thanks! Then he sat back down again!

"I really can’t stand it, the assets of a resurrected person are ample!"

Even though Zhen Yu cursed inwardly and rolled her eyes silently, she still waited like everyone else in the audience for Xing Ming on stage to start singing.

Except her wait was different from the rest!

Because everyone wanted to hear a new song, whereas Zhen Yu was purely interested in seeing which song Xing Ming was going to plagiarize next.

"Next, please enjoy my original song, ’Nanshan South’!"

"Nanshan South?"

That’s a bit confusing...

Because Zhen Yu didn’t seem to have heard of this song!

"Could it really be his original?" Doubts inevitably started to stir in Zhen Yu’s heart.

But doubts aside, she still had to listen to the song!

So, lay down the butcher’s cleaver and, oh sorry! Lay down the prejudice and start listening to the song right away is the proper way.

——

"You are in the brilliant sunshine of the south, where the snow flurries. I am in the cold night of the north, where all four seasons are like spring..."

After just hearing these two lines, Zhen Yu laughed again.

She had been hasty just now! She shouldn’t have trusted someone who had committed plagiarism in the past!

Although she only matched the name of this song now, she was still very familiar with these lyrics! She had even hummed it after her resurrection! At the time, Han Mingyue had asked her about it, asking her, oh no!

At this thought, Zhen Yu’s smile suddenly froze on her face!

That time, she had just hummed it spontaneously! She hadn’t expected that there would come a day when Han Mingyue could hear the songs she had hummed through other means!

So... where the hell is Han Mingyue listening to songs right now?

And she wondered what his reaction would be after hearing this song!

And whether he still remembers that she once sang half of ’Nanshan South’ in front of him?

It would be best if he doesn’t remember! But if he does...

"Ah!" Zhen Yu suddenly threw her head back! Then she dropped her head down heavily and muttered quietly to herself, "If he remembers, he remembers! As long as I deny it to the death, he has nothing on me! I didn’t record it, so... "

Before she could finish muttering the last sentence, Zhen Yu suddenly recalled another ’terrible’ thing!

She, she she... She did record it! She seems to have (risking her life) recorded many songs for Han Mingyue! It’s just that it was so long ago, she almost forgot about it herself!

Zhen Yu, in turmoil, suddenly became somewhat anxious and uneasy, frowning and quickly pondering.

Except what she pondered was not about finding some excuse or reason to cover up! But rather the feasibility of confessing the secret of her resurrection to Han Mingyue...
