Do You Still Hate Her? 09 – If you can’t beat them, join them.
After listening to Ye Lu’s recounting of his tragic experiences in the other four rooms, curiosity arose in Shang Lu’s eyes, and she asked, “So, who among them sings the worst?”
Ye Lu answered with eight words, “Each has its own merits, and there’s no distinction between them.”
[Translation : They all sing so bad that it’s hard to tell the difference!]
[Shang Lu, your focus is damn strange, hahaha]
Shang Lu looked at Ye Lu again and continued, “How can I help you then?”
Ye Lu looked at Shang Lu with pleading eyes and said, “It’s simple, help me teach them how to sing. I can’t do it alone.”
At this moment, Ye Lu looked truly desperate, and no one could refuse him. Moreover, Shang Lu was also curious about how bad the others’ singing skills were and wanted to see for himself. So he agreed.
Ye Lu handed over Lin Yanyan and Xu Ze to Shang Lu, giving a lofty reason, “You have a better relationship with Lin Yanyan, and Xu Ze is more obedient. It will be easier for you to handle them both.”
And Shang Lu was looking at him expressionlessly and said, “I see, so Lin Yanyan and Xu Ze sang the worst, right?”
Ye Lu : “…Yes.”
His little scheme was unexpectedly seen through by Shang Lu.
[Ye Lu is truly like a younger brother in front of Shang Lu.]
[Shang Lu sees through and speaks the truth, making Ye Lu feel embarrassed. Hahaha.]
Although the truth was revealed, Shang Lu still accepted this arrangement. She indeed preferred to be with Lin Yanyan.
So Ye Lu immediately went to find Lin Yanyan and Xu Ze, asking both of them to come to Shang Lu’s room for a proper lesson, while he set off to find Jiang Jing and Song Zeqian.
Upon learning that Shang Lu had become their teacher instead of Ye Lu, Lin Yanyan instantly felt relieved and even complained about Ye Lu’s teaching skills and short temper.
[Just a bystander speaking honestly, this time it’s not Ye Lu’s fault, hahaha.]
[Ye Lu is truly wronged, anyone else would struggle to teach (sorry).]
Xu Ze naturally sat quietly on the side without expressing any opinions.
Then the two of them took turns singing their parts to Shang Lu.
Shang Lu’s hands were trembling slightly.
Ye Lu was right. They both sang really badly, it was no exaggeration to call it noise!
Xu Ze lowered his head even more, seeming to feel a bit ashamed of his awful singing voice.
But Lin Yanyan, at this moment, confidently shifted the blame onto Ye Lu. “It’s all because of his poor teaching. If you had taught me, there wouldn’t be any problem!”
Shang Lu felt like a huge responsibility was placed upon her, but faced with Lin Yanyan’s expectant eyes, she couldn’t bear to say something cruel. She could only say, “I’ll do my best.”
And then Shang Lu began to train them.
The result was a failure.
Of course, what did Shang Lu know about singing techniques? She could only sing along herself! If even a professional like Ye Lu couldn’t teach them, what could she do?
So Shang Lu decided to give up altogether. She stopped teaching.
She looked at Lin Yanyan and Xu Ze, and said very seriously, “There’s only one option left. You both need to evaluate each other’s skills and give guidance by pointing out each other’s weaknesses.”
Lin Yanyan didn’t quite understand and asked, “We guide each other? Can that work?”
She wasn’t deaf, of course, she could tell that Xu Ze’s singing was also terrible.
“Of course it can,” Shang Lu’s expression remained serious, and he earnestly said, “The principle is simple, haven’t you heard of two negatives making a positive? Come on! Give it a try!”
[God, Shang Lu, are you serious? Don’t you want to hear what you’re saying!]
[She’s so serious, but I really want to laugh, hahaha]
On the other side,
Ye Lu had made countless attempts to help Song Zeqian and Jiang Jing find the right pitch, but Lin Yanyan and Xu Ze always went in the opposite direction, and the two of them were too low.
Ye Lu was an idol, he dared to mock Song Zeqian’s bad voice without restraint, as it wouldn’t affect his future path to stardom.
Of course, Song Zeqian didn’t hide his murderous intent towards Ye Lu at this moment.
But Ye Lu was still a person. Although he had low emotional intelligence and wasn’t very smart, he still had a basic conscience. At least, when facing Jiang Jing, who had a gentle and guilt-ridden expression because she knew her singing was terrible, he didn’t have the heart to say something too harsh.
In short, the teaching had been going on for a while now, and it could be said that it had been completely ineffective with no progress at all.
Ye Lu felt a sense of despair, really.
He decided to go outside and calm down for ten minutes.
Ye Lu stood in the garden, feeling incredibly desolate.
But when he calmed down and returned to his room, even before pushing the door, he heard from inside…
An incredibly unpleasant and wailing song.
Ye Lu : “…”
He didn’t want to go back. He was afraid to open this door to hell. His ears couldn’t bear this torment.
[Ye Lu, why are you so timid? Hahaha.]
[Go inside quickly and see your good students (whispering like a devil)]
[Ye Lu, open the door quickly! There’s a surprise inside!]
As Ye Lu hesitated about whether to open the door or not, he suddenly heard Lin Yanyan’s voice, faintly.
Why is Lin Yanyan in his room?
Ye Lu was very confused and then opened the door.
What he saw was a scene that he would never forget in his life, even in his nightmares—
Shang Lu holding a chopstick as a baton, waving it around in the air with a serious expression.
And Lin Yanyan, Xu Ze, Jiang Jing, and Song Zeqian sitting in a row by his bed, taking turns singing under Shang Lu’s direction.
Their singing voices were getting worse one after another.
One after another, their singing voices were worse than the previous one.
But Shang Lu didn’t think so. At this moment, she had her back turned to Ye Lu, holding that chopstick and continuously instructing—
“Lin Yanyan! You sing so well! You’re always the best!
“Xu Ze! Sing louder! Be more confident! Very good!
“Senior Jiang Jing, imagine yourself playing a soprano! You are the perfect actress! You can perform this role well! You’re a queen of the screen, after all!
“Hey, Song Zeqian, you can’t be the worst, right? Come on, sing! Don’t think I can’t tell you’re staring at me just because you’re not taking off your sunglasses! Sing for me too!”
Although they sang as terrible as ever, under Shang Lu’s praise/encouragement, they actually sang louder, one after another, as if they were competing for something.
[Shang Lu : The Born Teacher]
[Shang Lu may not be able to teach everyone how to sing, but she taught everyone confidence(?)]
[Facing the singing of these people, how can Shang Lu manage to compliment them, haha]
[Don’t they find each other’s singing torturous?]
Finally, it was Shang Lu’s turn.
She threw away the baton, cleared her throat, and started singing.
It was precisely because of this that Ye Lu’s heart died completely.
Because—
Shang Lu also went off-key! Although her singing couldn’t be considered extremely awful, it was completely different from before, completely off-pitch!
What exactly happened in these short ten minutes? He asked Shang Lu to teach these people, not to follow them and learn!
At this moment, Shang Lu finally noticed Yelu behind her. She stopped her singing, turned around, and waved her hand at Ye Lu, saying, “You’re finally back.”
Ye Lu : “…”
No, he didn’t want to come back at all.
Ye Lu covered the position of his heart and asked with his last breath of unwillingness, “Why? Why even you…”
Shang Lu waved the lyrics in her hand and answered his question with a smile, saying, “It’s simple, if you can’t beat them, join them.”
