Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 734: Chapter 761: Why Don’t You Go Up and Help (Part 1)

"Why is the piano still up there?"

This was the puzzling thought in Dili Bare’s mind. Was it that the staff had forgotten?

Besides, in the current situation, it wouldn’t be easy to move the piano away, so they could only leave it there as a decoration!

The lights came on, the actors got into their roles, and the music started playing.

The audience had already realized from the previous two songs that Dili Bare’s voice was stunning.

But earlier she was singing with Xie Ziqi; now she was singing alone, which raised the expectations even several times higher for everyone.

Lin Xi was also quite curious to see what the spicy little diva would be like when singing alone.

However, the setup behind her was not simple.

At this moment, the music began to transition into the lyrics section, and Dili Bare, holding the microphone, had a slightly stiff expression!

"Oh no!!!"

"Overestimated myself!"

She couldn’t find the key, not because she had forgotten, but because without the piano sound, she was suddenly confused and didn’t know how to start!

Backstage, her assistant Xiaojuan, witnessing this, couldn’t help but cover her face and shout out, "Oh no, she forgot the lyrics?"

"Or maybe she lost the feeling?"

Regardless of which one, it was embarrassing!

She refused to change the song when asked, claiming there was no issue. Look now, there’s a problem, I wonder how she will handle it!

With a displeased expression, Xiaojuan angrily glared at Dili Bare on the screen.

Xie Ziqi, like Xiaojuan, was the first to notice something wasn’t right, but now that she was backstage, it was too late to intervene.

To ninety-nine percent of the audience, they were still waiting for Dili Bare to start singing, unaware that she was standing there utterly flustered.

Luo Susu and Lin Xi, especially Luo Susu, with a strong musical background and top-notch piano skills, noticed Dili Bare’s oddity even earlier than Lin Xi.

On stage, Dili Bare blinked, appearing calm on the surface with no signs of anything unusual.

But in her heart, she was completely bewildered!

"How could I possibly forget??"

"How could it be?"

"Maybe..."

However, now wasn’t the time for such thoughts because the music was already entering the first line of the lyrics, and a few seconds later, it would move to the second line.

By that point, anyone without musical knowledge who had heard this song would realize something was wrong!

That would be awkward.

Thinking of this, Dili Bare wished she could find a hole to hide in.

Today, she really overestimated herself!

"No choice!" she thought silently, then suddenly exclaimed loudly, "Pause the music!"

"Something’s stuck in my throat, please hold on while I recover!"

Saying this, she ignored the band and audience’s reactions, bent over and gently patted her chest.

Xiaojuan, "..."

Xie Ziqi, "..."

Luo Susu, "..."

"So clever!" Lin Xi couldn’t help but laugh.

As for the majority of the audience, they shouted loudly, "Goddess, even if you just stand on stage, we are satisfied!"

"Yes, yes, take good care of your throat!"

"If it really doesn’t work, perhaps take a break first?"

Especially Nangong Qing, who was among the closest to Dili Bare and his reaction was more intense than most.

"Bare, need some water? I have some here!"

As he was about to step onto the stage, security immediately stopped him, ensuring the security of the stage was their top priority, regardless of his VIP seat status.

Otherwise, they would lose their jobs!

On the other side, Sheng Rusu saw Nangong Qing’s actions, and her previously smiling face stiffened, with a subtle flash of coldness in her eyes.

Of course, this coldness wasn’t directed at Nangong Qing but at Dili Bare on stage.

And it was under her direction that the pianist left suddenly as she didn’t want to see Dili Bare succeed, hoping to spoil things as much as possible.

But to her surprise, without piano music, it seemed Luo Susu was stuck and couldn’t find the tune!

About thirty seconds later, Dili Bare straightened up, showing a hint of apology on her face as she said, "Sorry for what just happened, everyone!"

"Now, I will put all my heart and soul into this song and will surely not let you down!"

"Lighting and music, please restart after five seconds!"

Five seconds later, the stage lights came back on, and the music started again.

"Ugh!" Dili Bare was stuck again!

What the heck is going on today?

Could it be that without piano music, she simply couldn’t sing?

She was not one to admit defeat easily and usually keeps trying until she overcame the challenge!

Yet in this situation, there was no chance for her to try.

"Should I call Ziqi up to sing together?" she pondered internally.

But on stage, she bent over again, pretending to look uncomfortable.

At this moment, except for Lin Xi, Luo Susu, and Xiaojuan and Xie Ziqi backstage, most others thought Dili Bare was genuinely unwell.

Hence, they all expressed worry, encouraging her to perhaps rest backstage until she recovered.

During her hesitation, Lin Xi in the VIP section suggested to Luo Susu, "Why don’t you go up and help; otherwise, it’ll waste a lot of time for her like this!"

"After all, I still want to go home to sleep early!"

Luo Susu couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Lin Xi, refusing to engage in such attention-seeking activities!

Besides, the song she intended to sing had very challenging high notes and the score was intricate, which coincidentally she hadn’t learned.

Thus, decisively she said, "I won’t go; you go if you want!"

"After all, you’re so impressive; I’d just embarrass myself in front of you!"

Lin Xi was stunned, not having considered going on stage himself, but considering the situation, he couldn’t think of other solutions.

Seeing Dili Bare still wishing to sing the song looking like she did, he hesitated and

then nodded, replying, "Seems there’s no other way; I’ll have to step in to help!"

Luo Susu, hearing this, hadn’t expected Lin Xi to genuinely consider it, responded, "Yes, yes, hero saves beauty; maybe she’ll like you!"

"By then, you’ll have another close female friend!"

"Is your heart racing?"

Lin Xi couldn’t help but glance curiously at Luo Susu, sighing, "One who understands me is indeed Luo Susu!"

The next moment, he stood up and walked towards the stage.

And as for Luo Susu, "....."

She wondered whether Lin Xi was planning to go up all along and had asked her purposely.

"Quite possible!!!"

Thinking about this, always composed, she couldn’t help but curse inwardly, "That scoundrel!!!!"

But as Lin Xi prepared to head to the stage, the two security guards who had stopped Nangong Qing before turned to block Lin Xi as well.

Lin Xi pointed to Dili Bare on stage, who appeared less calm, and said, "She’s my friend. If you’re unsure, you can ask her first."

The security guards sneered at Lin Xi. One of them said, "Quickly go back to your seat; no matter who you are, you can’t disturb the people on stage now."

"We’ve seen plenty of people like you!"

"Don’t expect to get away with it!"

PS: Thank you all for the recommended and monthly tickets; I’m too sleepy today, going to bed now.
