Chapter 131: Overflowing Adoration
On the stage of the finale of the Star Cup.
At the back of the audience seats—a truly magical scene was unfolding right now.
A handsome young man stood at the back rows, his expression dead serious, while he waved an encouraging stick constantly.
Only the kind of dance you’d see at a Tokyo idol concert!
Catching people’s attention with its catchy yet mesmerizing moves.
All the surrounding spectators were left dumbfounded.
Hold up?
Man, you got some game?!
As everyone stared, Lin Tian, with hands one slow motion at a time, danced like he truly meant business.
People in the audience couldn’t even watch the match anymore. They stretched their necks over to see this spectacle, immediately erupting in shocked exclamations.
“Boss! This is a real true love fan right here!”
“What intense feelings, I can’t compete with that!”
“Social terrorist alert, I thought just holding up a banner was bold. Who dances during concerts?!”
“Am I in the wrong movie? This isn’t a cello competition, is it?!”
“…”
Meanwhile, inside the dressing room:
As the director switched the camera to the audience, everyone was also left gobsmacked.
“Is this the dude who was just with Gan Yan Yu? They’re friends, right?”
“How wild! Is there really such an amazing fan out there?”
“Good lord, and surprisingly, he dances well too. I envy Gan Yan Yu so much for having such passionate fans!”
Gan Yan Yu looked at Lin Tian, who was dancing in front of her.
She froze.
What the heck is he doing?
This is crazy, right?!
But…
After hanging his head in embarrassment, Gan Yan Yu couldn’t resist it anymore.
Her lips gently curved upwards.
Almost burst out laughing.
Lin Tian, this is your ‘plan’?
Pretending to be my little fan and dancing an encouragement dance down there?
Beating up those fans might have been better…
Resisting her laughter, Gan Yan Yu composed herself and lifted her gaze.
—Look where you’re supposed to look.
—Everything else, consider them just vegetables.
That’s how Lin Tian put it.
Where should she look?
The cello or him?
Gan Yan Yu didn’t know.
But what she knew was.
In her long musical career, she had never felt such adoration from the audience before.
And now, it was overflowing!
With a sharp sound,
Gan Yan Yu’s bow drew the strings.
Instantly,
The music transcended!
Deep affection and full emotions.
Gan Yan Yu’s unique immersive performance began!
“Incredible!”
Someone in the dressing room exclaimed as soon as she started playing.
“What incredible power of influence?!”
Her superb technique made every note brim with delicate emotional changes!
Sometimes the melody soared high, expressing deep sorrow.
Sometimes it dipped low, like heavy sighs, lamenting life’s hardships.
“Unbelievably powerful. Just moments.”
“It makes sense; they say you need to experience Gan Yan Yu’s music to truly understand.”
“Is this genuinely the emotion of a 17-year-old girl?”
“E minor cello concerto” was a piece that required strong emotional expression to fully portray.
If Bai Xi’s pop performance was a feast for the ears,
Then Gan Yan Yu’s classical music was the ultimate emotional expression, drawing everyone into her music world, letting them hear her cries!
“…”
By the end of the discussion, the entire dressing room fell silent.
Everyone was entranced by the music, overwhelmed with awe and wonder.
Bai Xi’s face softened as well.
Ah, Gan Yan Yu, this is what you’re about.
No one understands classical music like you do better.
Seeing Lin Tian, who was still dancing in the audience,
Bai Xi sighed deeply.
“Young Gan Yan Yu’s little fangirl,” huh?
Mr. Lin Tian, you really show your adoration through actions like these.
No wonder you were indifferent to my performance.
I’m really no match for you.
In the performance venue:
As Gan Yan Yu continued her non-stop playing,
Lin Tian’s encouragement dance continued too.
The distance between them was like a vast river,
with Gan Yan Yu on one side and Lin Tian on the other.
Despite this, Lin Tian still sent his energy sincerely and seriously through his dance to Gan Yan Yu.
Didn’t you say the audience only brings pressure?
Weren’t you worried the fans would secretly ridicule you?
Feeling no genuine support, huh?
Fine!
Let me handle it then!
I’ll root for you and cheer for you!
Forget about the rest, just focus on me.
No one shows support more authentically than me!
With the performance nearing its climax,
the atmosphere reached its peak.
Everyone listened intently, immersed in Gan Yan Yu’s romantic composition.
Two hurried security guards finally pushed open the doors behind the audience, angrily rushing towards Lin Tian.
As the music approached its finale,
Lin Tian knew it was time to stop.
He put down his glow stick, conceding defeat.
As Lin Tian was sternly reprimanded, the teenage girl’s performance ended.
The venue erupted in thunderous applause,
mingled with cheering and whistles from countless supporters.
Inside the dressing room,
all the performers were chatting animatedly.
This performance was arguably more discussed than Bai Xi’s.
“A new piece played to such a degree!”
“Terrifying! One Bai Xi already seemed insurmountable. And here’s another monster!”
“I almost think Gan Yan Yu’s performance might rival Bai Xi’s!”
“The media were right. This year’s Parrot Zither Cup is filled with prodigies. Not to mention the grandmasters who didn’t attend the Star Cup—they could make us mere mortals feel insignificant.”
“Don’t worry, given the sheer number of fierce competitors in this year’s Parrot Zither Cup, we’ll probably still benefit somehow.”
“…”
In the midst of the buzzing discussions, Bai Xi shouldered her cello, opened the door, and walked out, still feeling incredibly joyful.
What on earth is this encouragement dance stuff?
Absolutely mind-boggling!
Mr. Lin Tian, Ms. Gan Yan Yu, see you again next time at the Parrot Zither Cup~
