Lu Qi’s voice was beautiful and melodious, and it was uniquely low and slightly hoarse, which made it pleasing to the ear. She sang a very famous English song.

This English song had a light, catchy rhythm that could instantly take away a person’s fatigue. At the same time, it wasn’t a song that just anyone could sing.

The three instructors were held spellbound as they listened to her sing, and they discussed amongst themselves in low voices. Judging from the expressions on their faces, it was clear that they were very satisfied with Lu Qi’s performance.

Sure enough, when Lu Qi finished singing, the instructors gave her high scores: 96, 97, and 98.

Lu Qi’s average score was a whopping 97 points, instantly making her everyone else’s rival.

Before Lu Qi had taken the stage, the highest score was only 94. So, for now, no one dared to underestimate Lu Qi.

Just then, one of the instructors asked, “There’s still a number sixty-two, right?”

Obviously, he didn’t sound too pleased.

Instructor Number Two nodded, then leaned over and whispered, “This one has been specially arranged.

“Someone of considerable background.

“We have to make sure she advances to the next round. We’ve already agreed to this. If we don’t, we can all forget about keeping our jobs here.”

Instructor Number Three looked totally helpless. He said, “There’s nothing we can do about it. We can still put up with the occasional one or two. Just pray that their singing isn’t too terrible.”

The three people leaned in close to each other and talked. As they discussed how many points they should give out to the next singer, Tang Guo had already made her way to the stage.

Laying eyes on Tang Guo for the first time, the three instructors were all a little surprised.

Tang Guo simply looked too pure and innocent. The corners of her mouth were slightly curved, revealing what appeared to be a faint smile. She was easily the spitting image of the perfect goddess every man dreams will be his first love.

Just her appearance alone made the instructors feel better. They thought to themselves, even if it turned out that she had a terrible voice, they would be able to bear it. At least she had looks that were worth looking at for a long time.

“To the three instructors, are you ready? I’m going to sing.”

Her gentle, sweet voice was incredibly warm, like the sun shining down after a rain shower. It was so heartwarming.

Robbed of their lines, the three instructors looked at each other. Shouldn’t they be the ones asking the question, “So-and-so, are you ready? If you are, then you may begin.”

As instructors, they smiled and nodded, indicating to Tang Guo that she could start singing.

At first, they thought Tang Guo’s performance would be a train wreck. They weren’t expecting to hear a heavenly voice penetrating their eardrums.

“This is the voice you hear when you’re kissed by an angel, isn’t it?” Instructor Number One looked as though he were somewhat in a daze. Then, he went on to say, “Hearing her voice, all my fatigue is completely gone. I feel refreshed all over, and so comfortable.”

Instructor Number Two didn’t say anything. His eyes were closed, and he had a completely defenseless expression on his face, as if he had entered a deep slumber. Just one look at him was enough to tell that he was already immersed in the world of Tang Guo’s voice.

Instructor Number Three seemed somewhat worked up. The song was only halfway over, but she simply couldn’t wait to give her score.

With both hands slightly trembling, she said, “I want to give her full marks.”

The audience offstage was also very quiet. In the beginning, they were softly discussing Tang Guo’s performance, but towards the end, they didn’t want to make even the slightest sound. It was as if they didn’t have the heart to destroy the melodious feast the singing voice was offering.

“Her voice is so beautiful.”

This was the discussion of the contestants who were backstage.

“I won’t even mind if I lose to her.”

“I was really nervous earlier, but the moment I heard her sing, I felt calm and peaceful inside. Her voice seemed to take away all my nervousness.”

“I think I’ve fallen in love with her voice. Even if we are competitors, there’s no way I can dislike her.”

The song was only a few minutes long, so it was over very quickly.

But after Tang Guo finished singing, everyone was extremely quiet. No one broke the silence.

A minute later, the three instructors were the first to regain their senses. They were filled with excitement and enthusiasm as they looked at Tang Guo.

The three of them looked at each other, then, at the same time, they all held up their scorecards.
