Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 651 - 652: New Song

Even now, she was no longer Tang Wu.

But she would take back everything that belonged to Tang Wu once more, all of it. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Looking at the people around her, Shi Mei was genuinely moved and said, "I know, some of you might not be meeting me for the first time, I participated in talent shows before, and I used to sing at the Giant Bar in Yan City. I see many old friends here today, thank you for coming specially."

"It’s nothing!"

"Because it’s you, it’s worth coming no matter how far we have to!"

"Yes, because it’s you, Senior Sister is worth it!"

Overwhelmed with emotion, Shi Mei’s eyes began to warm at the sight of the fans who once belonged to Tang Wu and were now here for Senior Sister. Her heart was filled with a thousand mixed emotions, and her eyes glistened with mist, but she couldn’t help chuckling and said, "Yes, I am worth it, and I have prepared a new song for everyone."

"A new song? Wow, did you write it yourself?"

"No way, someone who can play the piano and sing, and knows so many instruments, and now writes songs, isn’t that just too over the top?"

"What’s so surprising about that? Tang Wu can do it too!"

"Well, I know other singers who are also very impressive, occasionally writing songs, playing the lute..."

"Stop kidding, those are just mediocre. Haven’t you heard how she just played the piano? That skill isn’t something you can cultivate in ten or eight years; it doesn’t come without a childhood of immersion."

"It looks like she can play the lute too—wow, it really is a lute!"

Someone in the crowd pointed and shouted as everyone saw a person carefully bring up a lute, looking so cautious and intricate with its luxurious carvings, it was clear at a glance it was valuable.

Shi Mei took it, nodded naturally, and said, "It is a lute. The new song is in the style of Ancient Xia Country. I’ve worked on this song for half a year. Besides this song, there are two other new songs that I must keep secret for now."

"Still keeping secrets!"

"Half a year for one song... what kind of celestial work rate is that?"

"What’s wrong with half a year per song? Isn’t that normal?"

"Tang Wu can release an album a year, you know, and all written by herself. An album typically has six songs, sometimes even ten!"

"You’re just looking for a fight, always comparing everything to Tang Wu! Tang Wu is a classic, and Senior Sister is a new star! They’re not the same type at all, okay?"

"How can they not be the same type? I think she is just imitating Tang Wu, trying to be like her. Everything Tang Wu can do, she can do too—how can that be a coincidence!"

"You seem to want to imitate Tang Wu too; why don’t you give it a try? Go play the piano, the guitar, the lute! Go ahead, do it!"

...

The arguing voices from the crowd were rather loud. Hearing such disputes, Shi Mei spoke out, "Indeed it’s not a coincidence, and I am indeed a fan of Tang Wu. Songs are meant to be sung, talents are meant to be shown. No one has any exclusive rights to an instrument—it just so happens that what she can do, I can do as well, that’s all."

Saying this, she had already strummed the lute strings.

The melancholic sound of the lute filled the air from the high-quality speakers, the chilling tone carrying a slightly sharp melody.

The crowd erupted in cheers, "Well said! Anyone can sing Tang Wu’s songs, but honestly, no one sings them as well as you do!"

"Right, a tribute to the classics! It’s not plagiarism, not copying, even if it’s imitation, it’s done openly, and she does it much better than a certain ’national sweetheart’!"
