Liling was sitting beside Xin Yong and Richen, they were silently chatting about random things when Xin Yong's number was called. Her eyes widened in shock, she quickly stood up, but sat back down immediately.

"Xin Yong, do you really want to play the violin and sing?" Richen asked worriedly. She peeked at Liling as though telling her to prevent Xin Yong from playing the violin, but Liling didn't say anything.

"I can try, my voice is not too good, I need a backup, even if I don't win, it's not too bad is it?" Xin Yong chuckled as she pulled open the Violin bag and brought out her Max sized violin. Liling and Richen wished her good luck as she walked away with the authority incharge of leading them in.

.....

Jin Yue watched as the girl placed the violin at the centre of the stage and walked down to the background and took out a seat. She went back up and sat down while holding the violin erect. Looking up, she introduced herself.

"My name is Xin Yong, I'll be singing ''Jealous" by Labyrinth " She let out a small smile as she adjusted her goggles then the microphone which had been provided already.

Jin Yue's interest increased greatly by the second, his gaze fixed on her as she started playing the violin.

I'm jealous of the rain

That falls upon your skin

It's closer than my hands have been

I'm jealous of the rain

I'm jealous of the wind

That ripples through your clothes

It's closer than your shadow

Oh, I'm jealous of the wind

'Cause I wished you the best of

All this world could give

And I told you when you left me

There's nothing to forgive

But I always thought you'd come back, tell me all you found was

Heartbreak and misery

It's hard for me to say, I'm jealous of the way

You're happy without me

Jin Yue was frozen at a spot, he felt as though she sang to him, goosebumps washed over his body. He stared at her unwaveringly. Xin Yong knew the type of songs that suited her voice perfectly, and she knew she couldn't beat anyone with just singing so she played her violin and sang from her very soul.

Her face bore an emotion of pain, as though reflecting what she sang; when she lifted her eyes to the crowd, it was as though she was about to cry. Everyone was quiet listening attentively to the music. It was very captivating.

When she finished singing and gradually stood up, the spectators stood as well and applauded her. The judges gave their views and she thanked them and gently carried her violin to the backstage.

Jin Yue stared at her direction till she disappeared. He smiled and little and then remembered something, turning to look at Liu Wei, he found out the later had unbuttoned two of his shirt buttons and was tapping on his phone, a frown evident on his face.


Jin Yue who had wanted to comment on the pretty girl who sang, knew better than to speak a word. Returning his gaze to the stage, another contestant was called up.

"We welcome Number Sixty five to the stage..." Liu Wei looked up, it wasn't even a girl entering the stage; a pot bellied short boy obviously in his twenties. At that moment, he felt very nauseous, the air was really stuffy, he sat upright on his seat, his face emitting frosted anger. 'Number sixty five and she's still not the one?, is she the last person? Her name isn't even among the last letters of the Alphabet but still she's not yet here!!'

He used all his will power to remain seated on the seat, opening the bottle of water in front of him, he gulped down almost all the water in it. Jin Yue stared at him for a while and chuckled lightly. 'Hehe, seems someone is almost dying of anticipation here, well that serves you right, next time you annoy a genie like me' He smirked obviously happy about Liu Wei's state.

"Number Sixty seven... " The woman's voice rang out again.

"Number Sixty nine... " Liu Wei looked up yet it wasn't her, He felt shattered. Thinking of everything he went through to see her, he couldn't help but bend his head. His heart was filled with merciless pain, all he wanted to do was to stand up and leave, but he couldn't even move his feet. He just sat there miserable and unhappy.

"And now, the last but not the least, Number Seventy... " The woman smiled as she called out the last person, but no-one came up.

"Number Seventy? " She called again, while looking at the entrance for the contestants, yet no-one came up. "Seems, there is no number seventy, we come to the end of the....."

A girl ran out of the entrance into the stage. Petite body with long black hair, beautiful to behold with a smile on her porcelain face.

"I'm here" She said, cutting the woman off.

The lady turned to see her panting softly, she frowned at her a little but then she re-introduced her.

"Here comes Number Seventy" Liu Wei didn't want to look up, he just glanced at the stage and was preparing to divert his gaze when he caught sight of her standing there, looking at the lady with a smile on her face. She looked prettier than before, she chuckled lightly as she turned to face the crowd. At that moment, Liu Wei felt as though she was looking right at him. His heartbeat increased rapidly, his gaze fixed on her, all the pain was replaced with astonishment. He couldn't help but whisper her name softly.

"Liling.. "
