Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Chapter 988 - An Amazing Feat that Wowed Everyone

988 An Amazing Feat that Wowed Everyone
Qiao Nan did not really enjoy such a novel experience. One occurrence was enough. It had better not happen again.
If it were to happen again, she did not have anything else that she could bring out to bluff others.
The moment Xu Shengnan forced her up the stage, when the spotlights shone on her face and pierced her eyes such that she could not open them, no one would be able to understand how blank Qiao Nan’s mind was and how lost she felt.
Fortunately, as Qiao Nan’s twenty-over years of life experience was more than that of the people in front of her, she eventually managed this matter.
In her previous life, under Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin’s oppression, Qiao Zijin did not have much personal time or hobbies.
However, although Qiao Nan lacked social life, she still had something of her liking. In the past, when she heard the ‘Cups’ song, she felt very moved at heart. At the very least, she was rather struck by that song.
Qiao Nan, who was already feeling very exhausted, could not accept those songs with fast rhythm or those that expressed eternal love or life and death.
Qiao Nan had been very frugal all this while. Nevertheless, it was because of this song that for the first time in her life, she spent a sum of money to buy a cell phone that could let her listen to music.
This was the only song that was stored in that cell phone. She had been listening to this one and only song repeatedly.
As she had listened to this song for too many times, although Qiao Nan did not purposely learn how to sing the song, she was able to come up with the rhythm and sing it a cappella.
Xu Shengnan insisted that she replace Feng Qianqian to perform on stage. At that instance, Qiao Nan’s mind was in whirlwind and she could not come to her senses after a long time.
It was only when Xu Shengnan wanted her to confirm what she needed for the performance, besides the microphone, did Qiao Nan open her mouth and ask for a cup and a big piece of wooden plank before she could even think.
After saying that, Qiao Nan finally regained her senses.
She then realized that she wanted to perform the ‘Cups’ song.
Xu Shengnan was the action-oriented type. In addition, the chips were down on the situation before them.
Xu Shengnan could not care less. Once Qiao Nan opened her mouth and made her request, without a word, Xu Shengnan instructed someone to find all the things that Qiao Nan wanted.
Qiao Nan’s requirements were too low, not high at all. Hence, the things that she requested for were easy to find.
Before the previous performance ended, the club member had already found and brought back, one by one, what Qiao Nan had requested for.
The club member did not spend more than one minute to find and place the items in front of Qiao Nan.
Looking at the speed of the preparation, Qiao Nan almost cried.
The items had already been prepared. Coupled with Vice President Xu’s attitude, regardless of whether she felt like performing, she had to. She could not push away this request anymore. She also did not have any chance to do so.
Qiao Nan took a few deep breaths. She was secretly thinking whether she would have been able to escape from that performance had her requests been higher or more difficult.
Unfortunately, there was no cure for regrets in this world. Qiao Nan also did not have another chance.
No matter how Qiao Nan thought about it, she had to go ahead with the performance.
When she recalled in a daze how she had been forced up the stage to perform the entire song, Qiao Nan broke out in a cold sweat for herself.
When Qiao Nan stood up, she then realized that her legs felt a little numb.
The scariest thing to Qiao Nan was why there wasn’t a single reaction from the audience, although she had already finished singing the song.
She did not care anymore. As long as they did not jeer at her, it was fine even if there was no reaction.
At the thought of this, Qiao Nan shuffled her slightly numb feet and came down from the stage, stumbling a little.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. a was only reaching twenty-one years old. Why was her health so poor? She felt so numb after sitting down for just three to four minutes.
After coming down from the stage, Qiao Nan patted Xu Shengnan’s shoulders sullenly. “Vice President Xu, I have already done my best. You have said it before. No matter the outcome, the responsibility doesn’t lie with me. Also, please don’t ask me to do such things again in the future.”
She had obviously been forced up the stage today. It was so embarrassing.
“No, it’s not true.” When she heard Qiao Nan’s words, Xu Shengnan regained her senses. “Just now, you… you sang extremely well. Although I don’t study music and I don’t know what constitutes good music, I know that… I feel that you sang really well. After listening to you, I feel very at ease. Your voice is very crisp and pure.”
Right, crisp and pure. Very crisp and pure.
Due to that, although she might not have sensed the charisma of music arts through Qiao Nan’s voice, she could feel a sense of spiritual cleansing in it.
“Spiritual cleansing?” Upon hearing what Xu Shengnan had unknowingly said from her heart, Qiao Nan immediately laughed out loud. “Vice President Xu, even if you wish to encourage me, there has to be a limit. Do you take me for a washing detergent?” There were no boundaries in the exaggeration.
Xu Shengnan’s face turned red for a while. “It certainly sounds a little exaggerating, but I really feel that way. Qiao Nan, don’t belittle yourself. You really sang very well just now. If you don’t believe me, see for yourself.”
Xu Shengnan pushed Qiao Nan and asked her to look at the situation outside.
True enough, the audience, who were extremely silent earlier, had started to applaud loudly now. Obviously, the affirmation level for Qiao Nan’s performance of this song was very high.
Feng Qianqian of the new English club could not perform as she was unwell and sent to the hospital. Qiao Nan had been asked to fill her place at the eleventh hour. Everyone was aware of this situation.
When they saw that Qiao Nan only had a piece of wood plank and a plastic cup as props for her performance, everyone felt that Qiao Nan was too pitiful.
In the past, everyone was used to the new English club using such cheap props during their events.
However, this year, Qiao Nan clearly had secured a substantial sponsorship for the new English club. On the contrary, Qiao Nan, this last-minute substitute, used the least resources. Was the new English club completely giving up on this segment of the program?
It was only when they saw that Qiao Nan could create such a touching tune with the crude and ludicrous props, and when they heard the voice that was as crisp and clear as the mountain streams that everyone was taken back.
So, one could really perform with just a big piece of wooden plank and a plastic cup!
The most amazing thing was that the quality of the performance was actually quite good despite the two props that were easily attainable. That was completely different then.
Everyone knew that Feng Qianqian, the original performer, was sent to the hospital as she was having a fever and the school’s sick bay could not attend to her situation.
Otherwise, as Qiao Nan’s last-minute substitute performance did not fare worse than the rest of the performances that were prepared since a few months ago, they almost suspected if all these were deliberately arranged by the new English club to create a publicity stunt.
