Chapter 1185: Chapter 1182
Before Bi Xia recorded her song, Xu Renfei first went into the recording studio to casually sing a song as a demo for Bi Xia. Xu Renfei looked at Bi Xia, who was sitting in a swivel chair with her arms crossed, watching him. For some reason, despite usually being at ease with singing, he felt a bit nervous.
He took a deep breath, filtering through his mind the songs he was best at, hoping to regain the face he lost in front of Bi Xia. But when he met her starry eyes, a spark of inspiration hit him, and suddenly he remembered a song he had been practicing. He opened his mouth, his peach blossom eyes slightly lowered as he looked at the round microphone, feeling a bit shy, and softly hummed.
Outside the recording studio, Bi Xia wore the headphones Jiang Bo gave her, watching Xu Renfei with his eyes closed, humming. It had to be said, there was a reason why so many people were fond of Xu Renfei when he was immersed in music — he was indeed charming, quite different from the usual silly Xu Renfei.
However...
Bi Xia chuckled softly. What is he singing... He actually sang the theme song from the first season of "Pokémon," really... just... awesome!
"たとえ火の中水の中草の中森の中,
土の中雲の中あのコのスカートの中,
なかなかなかなか,
なかなかなかなか大変だけど,
かならずGETだぜ!
ポケモンGETだぜ!
マサラタウンにさよならバイバイ,
オレはこいつと旅に出る..."
Not only did Bi Xia freeze upon hearing the song Xu Renfei sang, but even Jiang Bo was taken aback for a moment. But he quickly played the accompaniment to the song "Aim to Be a Pokémon Master" from "Pokémon."
The accompaniment started, and while the voice wasn’t like Matsuda Rika’s with its magnetic vitality, it carried endless excitement. The deep male voice could burst into high notes at any time, making Bi Xia’s heartbeat thud wildly as she listened to the song she already found exciting.
She never expected Xu Renfei to give a demo with this song; she never imagined Xu Renfei could sing Japanese, let alone a song from Pokémon. It was simply too unexpected, making Bi Xia, who was a bit nervous about making mistakes during recording, completely relax.
Listening to Xu Renfei’s voice through the headphones, Bi Xia began to hum along.
Having been coerced into learning many languages, including Japanese, while in a training space by 007, Bi Xia quickly matched Xu Renfei’s pace, even pronouncing more accurately than Xu Renfei. One inside, one outside, when they sang Pikachu’s call "Pika" together, they both burst into laughter.
Through a pane of glass, Xu Renfei slowly took off his headphones, raised his eyes to look at the young man who was also removing his headphones and looking over. His peach blossom eyes curved, a hand in his pocket, and with the other hand, he put the headphones back on, then pointed at Bi Xia, gesturing for her to put her headphones back on.
Seeing Bi Xia put on her headphones, Xu Renfei grabbed the microphone with one hand, his voice pleasant, "Bi Xiaojiu, do you feel like you’re capturing Pokémon?"
"Of course!" Bi Xia laughed continuously, "Feixiaofei, your demo was simply fantastic, how about a compliment, does it make you happy?"
"What’s there to be happy about..." Ecstatically happy!
"Your Brother Qi gets praised by countless people for every song he sings!" But the praise I really want to hear is yours...
"You’re smiling so happily, it seems to have won your heart entirely." His peach blossom eyes lowered slightly, then lifted, a hint of jaunty arrogance in his voice as he spoke to Bi Xia again.
Bi Xia leaned back in the swivel chair, shaking her head, "It’s won my heart, Xu Aiqing."
"Hahahaha, it seems this song wasn’t learned in vain," Xu Renfei laughed heartily, then in a manner akin to a peddler adding bragging self-promotion, "I’m not bragging, but when it comes to singing, no matter the language, as long as it turns into a tune and lyrics, I can sing it completely!"
"Oh please, your enunciation isn’t even as accurate as Bi Xia’s," Jiang Bo’s voice echoed faintly through the headphones, "Go sing some si."
Xu Renfei: "... I wasn’t singing for you!"
