Chapter 157
"Caixia Lu, I can't believe you actually got Meilian Wang to sing on stage . "
Wanqiu Xia frowned and glared at Caixia Lu . She despised the woman whom let Meilian Wang sing on stage just so she could get the Honorable Director title .
Meilian Wang went overseas to do field work only the day before yesterday . And yet in order to win, Caixia Lu actually called back Meilian Wang from abroad . It was a very cunning move .
"Wanqiu Xia, I've already told you, this year's Honorable Director title is bound to be mine . Your sales department is going to lose . " Caixia Lu flung back her bangs and with proud eyes, condescendingly looked at Wanqiu Xia .
As long as she got the title, she could climb further up on the corporate ladder and achieve a better position .
"Meilian Wang, we love you . "
"Good luck Meilian Wang . "
"We want to hear the song 'The River Upstream' . "
A mass of workers stood up and yelled out Meilian Wang's name, some also wanting her to sing "The River Upstream" .
Meilian Wang stood in the middle of the stage with a huge smile . She was pretty . With rouge lipstick and revealing clothes, she had a flair of seductiveness . Her presence attracted many of the single men in the crowd .
"My name is Meilian Wang, and as a representative of the Public Relations Department, I will sing "The River Upstream . "
She smiled as she picked up her microphone, took a deep breath, and started singing .
"What does the mottled night say, who can tell me how to choose . Whenever I think of the time of separation, my sadness flows upstream into a river . Whom do you give your warmth to? And whom will care for me . . . "
Since Meilian Wang graduated from a music school, she had exceptional singing abilities . The song "The Upstream River" was sang incredibly well by her, it was beautiful to everybody .
Clap Clap Clap . . .
The audience gave out deafening claps and loud cheers telling Meilian Wang how well she sang .
Upon seeing that Meilian Wang's song was well received by the audience, Caixia Lu showed a face of happiness . On the other hand, Wanqiu Xia, who was sitting right beside her, had a face of gloominess . She could only hope that Qingfeng Li will do well .
Wanqiu Xia herself have never heard him sing before so she doesn't know of his singing abilities . It was only through Xiaoyue Zhang, whom went to a KTV with Qingfeng Li before, that she heard that Qingfeng Li had good singing abilities .
"Next up is Qingfeng Li from the Sales Department . He will also be singing a song to us . Let us all welcome him . "
The host, through the microphone, announced the next guest and his song .
Qingfeng Li tidied his shirt, put on a handsome posture, and walked towards the stage . On his way, he bumped into Meilian Wang who was just getting off the stage .
"Qingfeng Li, in terms of singing abilities, you are no match to me . " Meilian Wang coldly laughed and mockingly looked at Qingfeng Li .
Meilian Wang despised Qingfeng Li . He had insulted her not too long ago, and called her ugly .
All women loved beauty and they loved to be called pretty . So because Qingfeng Li called her ugly, she was very angry .
"A frog at the bottom of the well, not knowing how big the sky really is . "
"Qingfeng Li, you dare call me the frog at the bottom of the well?"
"You're not just the frog at the bottom of the well, but also a frog that can't even sing . "
"Qingfeng Li, boasting is all you can do . You think I sing bad? Why don't you show off your singing skills then . "
"I will let you know, what singing really is . What a man's love to a woman really is . "
Qingfeng Li cockily replied and paid no more attention to her as he continued onwards to the stage .
"I'm Qingfeng Li from the Sales Department and I will be singing 'Farewell My Concubine' . I am dedicating this song to our boss Xue Lin . "
Qingfeng Li smiled as he decided to dedicate his song to Xue Lin . Today was New Years, of course he had to give his wife a present .
"Who is this guy, he dares to dedicate the song to our boss?"
"He said he's Qingfeng Li from Sales Department . Looks like he's got some guts, to have the courage to sing to the boss . Don't tell me he wants to date our boss . "
"Damn, how come I didn't think of singing to our boss . "
"You? Don't even think about it . If you dare sing to our boss, you'll be fired by tomorrow . "
The crowd started whispering to each other, all surprised that he dedicated the song to their boss . It was a very brave move .
But Meilian Wang had just sang, it was a disadvantage to sing right after her, as she sang beautifully . Nobody thought that Qingfeng Li would be able to win .
Qingfeng Li, even on stage, could hear the whisperings of the crowd . "The Upstream River" was good, but he knew, was nowhere close to "Farewell My Concubine" .
A love story of the ages, the infatuated couple . The song "Farewell My Concubine" required the singer to put in real emotions . It is only then will the song move the audience .
Qingfeng Li lifted the microphone in hand, took a deep breath, and started his performance .
"I stand amidst the wind . Hate cannot sway my throbbing heart . As I stare up at the clouds, sword in hand, I want to ask who is the hero of us all . There are millions in the world, but I only love you, the kind of . . . . "
Qingfeng Li was singing soulfully . Xiang Yu, until the moment of his suicide, loved Yu Ji to death .
The entire banquet hall was silent . Everybody was immersed in the poignant love story .
The willingness to die for their loved one, there was no love greater than that .
Xue Lin, with her lush jade hands, covered her mouth . Her beautiful eyes had traces of tears . She was very touched .
She knew the song was a present from Qingfeng Li to her, and she was very fond of it .
Husband, in fact, I actually like you too . Xue Lin quietly whispered, her eyes still haven't moved from Qingfeng Li on stage .
Clap Clap Clap Clap Clap . . .
The hall exploded with applause . Everybody gave a standing ovation to Qingfeng Li because of how well he sang . He was able to express the love of a man towards a woman so vividly through his song .
"'Farewell My Concubine' is so good, even better than 'The Upstream River' . "
"I think so too, that was such a touching song . "
"I think in this singing competition, Qingfeng Li is the sure winner . "
All around, the audience started expressing their opinions . They looked at Qingfeng Li with a face of excitement, some female employees even screamed "Qingfeng Li we love you . "
Qingfeng Li's popularity at the Ice Snow Corporation rose rapidly . His reputation, was not much different from that of the boss, Xue Lin .
At the rostrum, many of the senior management staff looked at Qingfeng Li with appreciation . He sang the song so well he even moved them .
"Caixia Lu, your Public Relations Department is going to lose . " Wanqiu Lu, fixed her bangs as she spoke out, her face filled with excitement .
She knew the song "Farewell My Concubine" was bound to win .
Caixia Lu's expression changed upon hearing her words . She wanted to rebut, but decided against it as she heard everybody around her saying how good Qingfeng Li was .
Damn that Qingfeng Li . Where did he even come from, to be able to sing a song so well . Caixia Lu was very annoyed .
