Chapter 157: Choosing Zhou Mulun of All People?

"Actually, long before coming to The Voice of Greater Xia, there was already a mentor whom I admired deeply!"

"My previous singing style was not like this either!"

"Just before coming to this show, I sang a song for a friend of mine!"

"But the final outcome was far from ideal; they said the song I sang was not suitable for me!"

"I was quite devastated at the time!"

"Through their discussion and analysis, I did indeed realize that the song I chose was wrong!"

"Although that song was my absolute favorite, it didn't necessarily mean it could become my winning weapon!"

"Therefore, right before coming here, under their guidance, I changed to the song I just performed!"

The curiosity of everyone present was instantly piqued.

The song Dingdang had just sung already possessed an exceptionally high level of quality.

And this song had been changed to at the very last minute?

This made everyone even more curious.

Who possessed such a touch-of-gold-into-jade ability?

"The song I originally wanted to sing was Teacher Zhou Mulun's Herba Epilepticae!"

The other mentors let out sighs, all looking at Zhou Mulun with schadenfreude.

By now, Zhou Mulun should surely be ruled out first.

Upon hearing this, Yang Shen instantly beamed with joy.

"Your friend was entirely right; this song, Love Needs to Be Open and Aboveboard, suits you extremely well!"

"So, would you like to join my team? When the time comes, you can attend my concert together with your friend!"

"Just for their precious advice, I am willing to reserve a seat for them as well!"

"By the way, is your friend also a print model?"

Wha~~~

An uproar broke out at the scene. Yang Shen, you really are something else.

Is one print model not enough, you want two?

Does anyone not know what's on your mind?

Yu Chengxuang asked with a warm smile, "So, what is your choice?"

Yang Shen and Na Ying both looked at Dingdang with full anticipation.

Because the two of them knew that they had the most competitive edge!

Zhou Mulun, who originally possessed formidable strength, should have been the most competitive, but Dingdang's words had directly eliminated him.

Dingdang picked up the microphone: "I'm so sorry!"

Everyone turned their gazes toward Zhou Mulun; this apology must have been meant for him.

Zhou Mulun shrugged, unsure whether he meant it was fine or didn't matter, looking relaxed and breezy!

"Teacher Yang Shen, I'm afraid I won't be able to join you for your thirty-two concerts! I'm sorry!"

Wha~~

Everyone looked at Dingdang in utter astonishment. Never in their wildest dreams had they expected that the first person to be eliminated would be Yang Shen!

At the same time, they couldn't help but mentally applaud the beautiful girl before them.

She must have understood the underlying meaning in Yang Shen's eyes!

And she was not a girl who would sell out her own principles for the sake of her career.

Yang Shen's entire face was painted with awkwardness!

He never imagined that the other party would reject him.

Could it be that the stakes he offered were not high enough?

That shouldn't be the case; how could a newcomer turn down thirty-two concerts?

Watching Dingdang reject Yang Shen, Na Ying couldn't help but stand up and cheer.

Now, it was almost certain that Dingdang's choice would be none other than herself!

"My choice is—Teacher Zhou Mulun!"

Gasp~!

Not only Na Ying, but almost everyone present froze on the spot.

Didn't you just say your friend gave you advice that Teacher Zhou Mulun's songs weren't suitable?

Now you're choosing Zhou Mulun anyway, what on earth is going on?

Even Zhou Mulun looked at Dingdang with a hint of surprise.

Puzzled, Zhou Mulun asked, "Could you tell everyone why? You just mentioned your friend... why now..."

Dingdang nodded, then explained, "Thank you once again to the four mentors for your affection!"

"First of all, I have always adored Teacher Zhou Mulun so much. You could say I grew up listening to Teacher Zhou Mulun's songs. Now that there is a chance, an opportunity to become Teacher Zhou Mulun's student, I don't think I can convince myself to let it pass!"

"Additionally, my friend did say that my hip-hop style still has some shortcomings, but I want to make up for my shortcomings, so I choose Teacher Zhou Mulun!"

Clap clap clap~~

Warm and enthusiastic applause erupted throughout the venue.

What a driven and ambitious girl!

Knowing her own weaknesses, she didn't choose to back away, but instead chose to conquer and mend her weaknesses!

Therefore, everyone couldn't help but offer Dingdang their applause.

"Is your friend here at the venue?"

Zhou Mulun suddenly remembered and asked.

Dingdang shook her head. If Su Bai had come to the venue, there was no telling what kind of commotion he would have caused.

Meanwhile, Yang Shen still said with some lingering unwillingness, "Dingdang, although you didn't choose to join my team, I still want to tell you!"

"If you ever want to attend my concert, I still welcome you!"

"Reach out to me privately, you know how it is!"

Ew~~~

Jeers rang out across the venue; this was getting a bit too...

Dingdang merely smiled faintly and nodded politely at Yang Shen.

"Thank you very much, Teacher Yang Shen!"

Originally, Zhou Mulun hadn't chimed in on this topic at all.

But hearing Yang Shen still trying to poach his team member even after Dingdang had chosen to join his team made him feel somewhat displeased inside.

Zhou Mulun said with a smile, "Yang Shen, I have concerts too!"

"My trainees will be trained by me!"

"Mandopop is the absolute best!!!"

Wha~~~ Hahaha.

Hearing Zhou Mulun say that his trainees would be trained by him, everyone was initially shocked.

Zhou Mulun was genuinely angry.

But upon hearing that final line—Mandopop is the absolute best—everyone burst into hearty laughter.

And just like that, the awkward incident was glossed over!

Dingdang left the stage, and The Voice continued.

Once off stage, Dingdang couldn't help but send a WeChat message to Su Bai.

[Boss, four chair turns! Hehe!]

[Su Bai: Not bad, keep up the good work. Come see me once before your battle rounds!]

Looking at Su Bai's message, Dingdang couldn't help feeling a surge of excitement.

She had finally won the boss's approval.

When she first sang this song in front of Su Bai, there were still flaws.

It was Su Bai who corrected her mistakes time and time again.

And personally demonstrated how a certain part should be sung.

That was how Dingdang achieved today's stellar performance.

Dingdang knew very well that as a four-chair-turn contestant, she was probably going to achieve a small wave of online fame.

Though incomparable to Su Bai, being able to gain a little popularity left Dingdang more than satisfied.

At the same time, she grew even more anticipated for the second song she would discuss with her boss!

From the very beginning, Dingdang's sole intention had been to seek Su Bai's guidance.

Therefore, which of the four mentors she chose didn't really matter to her.

Since it didn't matter, she naturally chose a singer she genuinely liked.

Hence, Dingdang chose Zhou Mulun.

Coupled with the dream collaboration between Zhou Mulun and Su Bai on the internet recently,

Dingdang couldn't help but look forward to what it would be like when Su Bai and Zhou Mulun finally met in person.
