Chapter 163 New Year's Day Performance 3
Chapter 163 New Year's Day Performance 3
~
Ruan Zhao cleared his throat and then spoke with emotion.
"It was December 10th, a winter night, and everyone was asleep (except herself)
In their dreams, they suddenly heard a loud noise that shook the valley (actually, she had used the Thunder Talisman to split off a piece of the mountain).
The rainstorm was like a waterfall, and the mud and rock flow came surging like a giant beast burying the village. The villagers were drowned in mud and water one after another.
In the darkness of the night, a pair of parents lifted their child high above their heads and out of the water in order to keep him alive. (Actually, she lifted one of the child's parents out of the water and onto the raft.)
They were shivering in the mud and water, but still refused to let go.
In this way, they waited until dawn. When the child's mother saw the sun coming out, she finally smiled and used her last bit of strength to tell her child.
"Child, when the day breaks, you must live well."
At this point, everyone thought she would talk about how she rescued the child.
Instead, Ruan Zhao changed the subject. "Natural disasters are merciless, and life is precious.
Next, let Qin Ze, a student from the Military Region Primary School, sing a song called "Daybreak" to pay tribute to life.
???
Her change of scene was a little sudden, which made everyone a little stunned, but they still applauded enthusiastically.
Qin Ze looked at Ruan Zhao in confusion. How could he sing?
Ruan Zhao raised his eyebrows at him in response.
Don't worry, you will sing as long as your mother is here.
Then, the people in the audience saw Ruan Zhao pat Qin Ze on the shoulder and then handed the microphone to him.
"Come on, mom is rooting for you."
Qin Ze's face was startled, and then he felt something entering his body.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Ruan Zhao with resentment.
Mom, you love me so much.
Wu Rui, who had personally practiced the obedient talisman, couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
She was quite cruel to her own son.
Qin Zongwu rubbed his forehead with a complicated expression, not knowing whether he should be happy for Ruan Zhao's cleverness or observe a moment of silence for his son.

Just when everyone was thinking different things, Ruan Zhao walked directly to the piano on the side of the stage and started playing the piano in a very stylish manner.
Her fingers were white and slender, dancing on the piano keys like an elf.
As soon as the music started, the scene became quiet.
Su Yingxue and Huang Rui were also stunned, somewhat incredulous.
She can actually play the piano?
Soon, the prelude was over and the main song began.
Qin Ze held the microphone and, under the control of the obedient talisman, spoke at the same time as Ruan Zhao.
"It was a winter, the lingering wind reminded me of their helpless eyes.
In that beautiful place, I heard a loud noise that shook the valley...
It was that winter when I could no longer see my father's face. He used his shoulders to hold up the starting point of my rebirth.
In the darkness, tears fill my eyes. Don't leave, don't hurt...
I saw my parents pass away, leaving me in this strange world, not knowing what risks the future holds..."
Qin Ze's voice is crisp and clean, with a child's tenderness and innocence, ethereal and penetrating.
With the addition of Ruan Zhao's emotions (tear-jerking), the two voices are perfectly combined together, with Qin Ze's voice as the main voice and Ruan Zhao's voice as the auxiliary voice, instantly drawing everyone's emotions into the song.
Thinking of the story that Ruan Zhao had just told, many people's eyes began to well up when the song reached its climax.
Su Yingxue, who was waiting to see the joke, was the first to burst into tears.
You can't blame her, even female villains can be soft-hearted.
"...I want to hold her hand tightly. My mother told me that there is still hope... They smiled when they saw the sun coming out... It was dawn..."
After the song ended, there was silence.
It wasn't until several leaders in the front row applauded that everyone came to their senses, and then the scene erupted in thunderous applause.
If they didn't know that no one died in this natural disaster, Qin Zongwu, Lu Yan and others would probably have thought that Ruan Zhao had witnessed the scene in the lyrics with his own eyes.
But they knew the truth, so they were a little amused and helpless when they saw Ruan Zhao using metaphysical means to make his son sing a sad song to make people cry.
Ruan Zhao didn't know what these people were thinking. She lowered her head and glanced around, and found that the women were all crying, and many men also had sad faces, as if the parents in the song just now were referring to them.
Having achieved the desired effect, Ruan Zhao stood up, took Qin Ze's hand, bowed to everyone, and walked off the stage without saying anything.
Now, the two of them became the center of attention.
The stage was taken back under the control of the art troupe. Because Ruan Zhao and Qin Ze's singing took too long, the host said a few simple words and then went straight to the last part, which was also a fixed part of every program. A secretary of the Military Commission came on stage to give a speech.
~
Below the stage, Zheng Duoyan almost forgot about her business because she was listening to a song just now.
After coming to her senses, she hurried out of the backstage and walked towards Director Luo with her back bent.
Director Luo was listening to a speech when he glanced over and saw that the seat next to him had been changed. He asked in surprise, "When did you come to sit here?"
Luo Yang chuckled and whispered back, "Just now. I haven't chatted with Third Uncle for a long time. I want to be closer to you."
As he spoke, he squeezed closer to Director Luo.
Director Luo curled his lips, feeling that he had bad intentions. "Are you up to something bad again, kid?"
"Uncle San, how could you miss your own nephew so much? I'm a kind and upright young man. The army gave me a big red flower. I'm so sad that you miss me so much."
"Come on, stop acting with me. Don't I know what kind of person you are?"
While the two were bickering, Zheng Duoyan had already come to Director Luo's side.
Luo Yang glanced at Zheng Duoyan, then quickly looked away and said to Director Luo, "Uncle San, stop talking and listen to the speech."
After saying that, he really shut up and looked at the stage, which made Director Luo a little confused.
Did this kid take the wrong medicine?
Zheng Duoyan said a few words to a comrade sitting to Director Luo's left, and that comrade stood up and gave her his seat.
Director Luo turned his head to glance at Zheng Duoyan, his eyes changed, and he quickly looked away.
Seeing that Director Luo ignored her, Zheng Duoyan did not speak, but just glanced at Director Luo from time to time, and then while Director Luo's attention was on the stage, she reached out and quickly stuffed the small box into his pocket.
She thought she was doing it very secretly, but in fact Director Luo had already discovered it, but just pretended not to know.
Zheng Duoyan, who felt that she had completed the task, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then took advantage of Director Luo's inattention and left with a hunched back.
Director Luo originally wanted to wait until the performance was over before taking the thing out to see what it was, but Luo Yang suddenly put his arm around his shoulders, then slid his hand down into his pocket and took the thing away.
"Uncle San, I'm going back to find my colleague."
After Luo Yang finished speaking, he ran away with his body hunched over like Zheng Duoyan.
Director Luo was speechless, "..."
Do these two people think he is a fool?
~
Luo Yang ran to the small aisle in the middle, gestured in Ruan Zhao's direction with a look of seeking credit, and then sat back in his seat.
Ruan Zhao was speechless.
This idiot, I told him not to attract attention, but he acted sneaky, as if he was afraid that others would not know what he had done. What a bad teammate!
