Chapter 285 As If A Generation Had Passed
The song Kelly songs was Unfinished Love, the original singer was called Emily. Kelly chose the song with a little sad melody. She did not know why she would sing that song. Perhaps, the feeling the song expressed was similar to the feeling in her heart.
She could not finish the love. Kelly finished singing without any awareness. The referee completely forgot to stop her singing because Kelly sang so beautifully. As the referee, she naturally knew the original singer of the song. The referee felt that Kelly sang better than the original singer. Moreover, people seemed to hear a story in her voice.
"Poop poop " The students applauded desperately and shouted Kelly's name like her fans. Kevin, Alan and the others of them also applauded desperately. Kevin was very shocked at this moment. It was hard to believe that Kelly had sung that moving song just now. The voice in her singing seemed to be totally different from the voice in her usual talking, even though they were the same.
"Kelly, you're amazing. I'm your fan." Kevin laughed and shouted. Lily, who was sitting at the side, was in a very low mood, not because she was jealous of Kelly, but because Kelly sang so well that she felt inferior. Kelly walked down the rostrum and the next contestant went on stage. Kelly returned to the grandstand. Kevin hurriedly said, "Kelly, it is so unbelievable. Your singing is really fantastic."
"Ha—ha, it was just average." Kelly smiled shyly, but she felt extremely happy in her heart. No one knew that she was actually singing for someone. Now that he praised her song. Kelly was satisfied. As for winning the first place, it didn't matter anymore. At about 2:30pm, the referee announced the winners of the singing contest. "I declare that the number one in the singing contest is Kelly."
"Wow wow The crowd shouted loudly within their expectation.
"The number two is Yilia, and the number three is Cynthia." Kelly went on stage to receive the trophy and
10,000 dollars in cash as an award for the first place. Returning to her seat, Kelly handed the trophy to Kevin and said. "I'll give you my trophy too... if you want it."
"Of course, I do. Thank you, Kelly, I will collect it well."
Kevin accepted Kelly's trophy. Lily was still unhappy. If possible, she would like to get a trophy and give it to Kevin. "Then, there will be the last talent show on New Year's Day — the musical instruments performance. let's welcome the first contestant Yilin to the stage."
Kevin stood up and twisted his waist. It was time for him to show his talent again, because among the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, Kevin was best at zither.
This was because Kevin's junior female schoolmate loved music. Kevin's skills in playing the Zither were taught by her. Zither was also the thing which Kevin had learned most seriously. Alan hurriedly asked, "Kevin, you seem to be very confident."
"Perhaps." Kevin suddenly felt a little sad. The scenes of the junior female schoolmate teaching him how to play the zither kept appearing in his mind, as if they were in the yesterday.
The first person on the stage had already begun playing the flute. The unpleasant sound of the flute interrupted Kevin's thoughts. "Get off." The referee immediately shouted. Although there weren't many students participating in the musical instrument competition they couldn't let this noise disturb other students.
"Next, Hammer. please come on the stage " Hammer was playing the erhu. The song he played was the most tragic one "Erquan Yingyue". He tried to infect everyone by his music. Unfortunately, because his skill was not good enough, he was pushed off the stage halfway. Just like that, one after another went on the stage and got off. "Next, Lily, please get prepared." When Lily heard that, he immediately stood up with excitement.
"I must work hard. I also want to get the award. God bless me." Lily thought to herself. Lily walked to the rostrum. She played the piano. Lily sat gracefully in front of a piano and began to play. Her played well, and her posture was also very
beautiful. She wasn't driven off halfway until the end. "Next, Kevin."
When students heard Kevin's name, they immediately shouted again. "Holy shit, can Kevin keep a low profile?"
"Will Kevin die if he doesn't participate in so many competitions?" Kevin appeared again amidst the curses of the crowd.
Kevin walked onto the rostrum. Unlike what he was in the morning, Kevin did not show a happy expression on his face, instead it was a faint sadness. In all the competitions in the morning. Kevin smiled when walking on the stage. Kevin chose a zither prepared by the school.
He was also the only one who played the zither. No one played the zither in the previous competition. Because the zither is difficult to play, if the player wasn't good enough at it, the sound of it will be extremely unpleasant. Kevin placed the zither and sat in front of it. At this moment, Kevin felt as if he was going back to the past. Little Junior female schoolmate was sitting beside him. Kevin was stunned, motionless, and his eyes were staring at the Zither in a daze.
When the students saw that Kevin was dumbfounded, they began to discuss. "What does that mean? He's sitting there motionless."
"I think he was likely unable to play the zither. I guess he was thinking about how to threaten the referee to get the first place."
"What a disgrace to the St. Paul's School." Lily, Kelly and the others of them also saw the indescribable expression of sadness on his face before he went on the stage. They did not know what had happened to him, but Kelly and Lily distantly knew something. The referee warned, "Hey, this student, can you play the zither or not? Hurry up to get off if you can't and don't waste my time."
Kevin didn't seem to hear it and was still stunned.
At this moment, Kevin completely forgot where he was. He felt a sense of sadness in his heart. His junior female schoolmate's sweet and clear voice sounded in his ears, "Senior Brother Wind, let's play the "Green Cloud River". You play the zither and I sing with it, okay?" Kevin involuntarily said, "Alright."
"Then hurry up."
"Yes." Kevin nodded.
Many students at the scene saw that Kevin say "alright" and "Hum" continuously, and they were a little impatient. Kevin placed his fingers on the zither and began to play the familiar tune. In his mind, the melodious singing of his junior female schoolmate had already sounded.
Kevin was playing the zither while she was singing. When everyone heard the chords of Kevin's zither, they were suddenly shocked. The referee frowned and thought to himself.
"What kind of the tune is that? I've never heard of it before. It's really good. The skill in playing the zither art can also be considered superb. I didn't expect a student to be able to play the zither so well." On the grandstand. Kelly immediately took out her notebook and recorded something. Lily closed his eyes and felt that the chords of Kevin's zither gave people a sense of enjoyment.
"Senior Brother Wind, you play really well. It seems that you've learned what I taught you. Let's practice it again."
"Alright." Kevin nodded. "Poop poop." At this moment, applause broke out from the crowd, interrupting Kevin's thoughts. Kevin looked at the zither on the table and felt depressed as if a generation has passed. "Kevin, it's turn for the next one. You can get off now."
