My Sister is a Superstar

Chapter 58: Crazy Demon that Defends His Wife

All the audience present looked at the screen and awaited the results. A third-grade star with a legend in the rock-and-roll world as her husband. A pure newcomer who shocked the world with her new songs.

The final results were this:

Xue Mei, 201 votes.

Qin Baobao, 299 votes.

No one voided their votes.

The difference was close to a hundred votes, and it was a trashing defeat.

The applause sounded, and the cheers reverberated.

On the live comments, the netizens expressed their views and opinions.

“As expected.”

“It really can’t be compared. Qin Baobao’s ‘Fairytale’ made me cry and made me feel sadness in my heart.”

“Even though I’m Li Xuegang’s fan, his ‘Fairytale’ could not be compared to Qin Baobao’s. I admit my defeat convincingly.”

“Qin Baobao gave us another surprise. She’s the biggest highlight of ‘I am a Singer’.”

“I can finally confirm that the whatsoever brother was fake. How can a person write so many incredible songs? ‘Invisible Wings’, ‘Miracle’, and ‘Fairytale’. Heck, who would believe that it’s all written by one person?”

The live comments floated past, and the majority of them were compliments for Qin Baobao, saying how good her singing was and how beautiful she was. She deserved her win.

Qin Baobao was very immersed in the show, and she smiled until her eyes were in a line.

Piak!

Qin Ze suddenly closed his laptop and announced, “The program ended. Sister Zijin, let’s go back to our rooms and sleep.”

“Go back to the room and sleep… bleh, you just want to take advantage of me.” Wang Zijin rolled her eyes at him and stood up to stretch. She yawned. “Baobao, you’ve won. I can sleep, right?”

“Go, go.” Qin Baobao pouted. “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.”

Qin Baobao was already satisfied when her brother and her best friend saw her glory.

“What happened in the end?” Wang Zijin asked curiously.

“The three candidates in the resurrection round were Chen Xiaotong, Li Rongxing, and Xue Mei. In the end, Xue Mei was eliminated,” Qin Ze said.

Qin Baobao was shocked. “How did you know that?”

Qin Ze waved his phone. “There are spoilers on the Internet, and the comments section is going to explode. Sister, you’ve really become famous now.”

Qin Baobao smiled from ear to ear as she snatched his phone and said delightedly, “Let me see it.”

“Stop looking.” After Qin Ze saw Wang Zijin closing the door, he took out his cigarette from his pocket and lit it up. Comfortably, he puffed out green smoke.

Qin Baobao waved her hands to drive the smoke away as she lowered her head to look at the phone.

Qin Ze took a deep breath in and puffed out in front of Qin Baobao’s flower-like face.

Qin Baobao choked and kept coughing. Angrily, he kicked Qin Ze. “What are you doing?”

“I already told you not to look.” Qin Ze snatched his phone back and pulled a stern face. “You won this time not because of popularity but because of your song choice. This can’t do.”

“Why not? Your sister is so pretty and sings really nicely. She’s formidable.” As Qin Baobao had won twice in a row, she was overwhelmed with confidence. If she had a tail, it would have been going towards the sky.

“The song is important, but in this show, you’re not just comparing your songs. There’s also your singing skills and popularity. Your voice is very… sexy.” Qin Ze analyzed. “However, your singing skills are one of the bottom few, and it’s around Xue Mei’s standard. Compared to professional singers like Huang Yuteng and Li Rongxing, you won’t make it. Secondly, for popularity, you were just lucky this time and met with a comparable third-singer star, a dabbler singer. If you meet with Huang Yuteng or Li Rongxing, you have to kneel.”

“However, even if so, my singing skills won’t improve just because you say so. There’s no expert enlightening me,” Qin Baobao said sadly.

You can’t be enlightened, but I can.

Qin Ze laughed, “Since you don’t need to work these few days, I’ll give you special training. Your singing skills will advance within the week.”

“You?” Qin Baobao looked at him for some time before she suddenly held her stomach and burst out laughing as she collapsed on the couch.”

Qin Ze’s mouth twitched.

“System, freaking help me exchange for a high-skill singing technique. I want to slap this b*tch to death.”

“Exchange success.”

Qin Ze slapped his sister’s big bottom, and the sound was loud and clear. The texture was great. Qin Baobao screamed and held her butt as she glared at him angrily.

“Come, sing ‘Fairytale’ again.”

“Hmph!”

“Hmph your sister. Hurry and sing.”

“I have no sister, only a brother.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Just sing when I tell you to.”

“Qin Ze, you’re becoming more and more arrogant. Do you even treat me as your sister?”

“Are you not going to listen to me? Then, think of a way to get songs on your own. I’m not writing anymore.”

“Master, please don’t do that. I’m wrong.”

“Call me emperor.”

“Emperor, Concubine is wrong.”

“Sing it.”

“Okay.”

After the enlightenment, Qin Ze kept pointing out her enunciation errors, and her breathing errors using his new knowledge on singing skills. A lot of songs had something in common like the low notes, high notes, and trembles. The way to sing it was all different. The company’s training might not be wrong, but it was definitely not all-encompassing like how a student would not graduate with masters if he/she just relied on listening intently to what a teacher taught in class for forty-five minutes.

Qin Baobao was shocked. After his brother’s ‘teaching’, many aspects of her singing—which she was confused before—suddenly became clear to her like the clouds separating and revealing a bright sky. She really did learn a lot. If it was not because of Qin Ze’s stern expression, she would have pounced over and squeezed her brother’s cheeks while saying ‘Pfft, which demon possessed my Ah Ze? Hurry and get lost.’

At two in the morning, Qin Baobao—who was tired beyond words—was chased back to the room to sleep by Qin Ze.

Qin Ze could not sleep. He was frustrated as the chances of Qin Baobao being the champion was very low. The difficulty of this mission was on ‘hell’ level.

The next morning…

Qin Ze and Wang Zijin came back from their morning run. Qin Baobao was making a call in the living room, and she was wearing loose white pajamas. Her hair was curly, and there was a cup of warm water on the glass coffee table in front of her.

“Sister Li, I won’t be going to the office these few days. Mm, I need to focus on practicing my songs… Who cares about that Xu Gongming? Ask him to get lost. Who the heck needs his song?

“You don’t need to come. You’re not my personal assistant in life. Just help me apply for leave.

“Mm, what’s the company’s reaction?

“Oh, it’s good if the leader is happy. Help me settle the things over there. I won’t be going over to the company this week.

“The nickname ‘Queen of Love Songs’ is not bad. Let’s settle on it. Ask the company to buy more articles. I’m lacking in popularity and fans now.

“I know it’s already very high, but compared to famous singers like Li Rongxing and Hong Jingyao, my foundation is not good. Aiya, I don’t care about these. You’re my manager; you fix it.

“Mm, that’s it. Bye, bye.”

Wang Zijin lowered her head to change into cotton slippers and laughed, “Aiyoyo, is this your superstar behavior? My Bao is awesome.”

Qin Ze was ticked and added, “My sister is awesome.”

Qin Baobao took a sip of the warm water and rolled her eyes in a flirtatious manner. “Go and die.”

After breakfast, Wang Zijin went to work; and Qin Baobao was practicing her song in the room, digesting last night’s content.

Qin Ze sat in the living room and used his laptop to watch the stock market while going onto the Internet to gather data and search for information related to Qin Baobao.

After yesterday’s program, Qin Baobao’s popularity was elevated. Other than the articles Star Talent bought for her, some small-scaled media platforms had also posted news related to her.

Lazy Cat App: ‘Newcomer Qin Baobao Shocks the Crowd Once Again; ‘Fairytale’ Shoots Up to Top Ten of the Leaderboard’.

Tian Yi: ‘Three incredible songs; Is Qin Baobao Star Talent’s Favorite Female Star to Develop?’

Cloud: ‘Fairytale Receives Good Comments; Queen of Love Songs’ Birth’

Hardcore Web: ‘Deep Investigation in Qin Baobao’s Romance History’

UC: ‘After Qin Baobao Sang the Song, the Hundreds of Spectators were Silenced’

Qin Ze laughed while reading them.

Suddenly, he saw Weibo’s top search ‘#CrazyDemonthatDefendsHisWifeLiXuegang’.

This happened:

At seven in the morning, Xue Mei sent a message on Weibo. ‘How sad; it died before it got famous. Face filled with tears. Hubby, the ‘Fairytale’ audience did not buy it. @Li Xuegang’

The attached picture was the voting results between her and Qin Baobao.

Xue Mei, 201 votes

Qin Baobao, 299 votes

The fans respectively went to comfort and encourage her.

If it was just this, it definitely could not make it to the top searches on Weibo, but Li Xuegang replied.

A few minutes later, Li Xuegang also posted a message on Weibo: ‘ ‘I am a Singer’ is a very good program, and it’s a stage where singers converge and compete. Can a newcomer without foundation or a debut really go up to this stage? Is that appropriate? Of course, I don’t have the intention of singling out anyone. I’m just expressing my personal opinion. Hubby will help you take revenge. @Xue Mei’

The attached picture was an invitation card from the ‘I am a Singer’ program committee.

In this way, the response was huge. After all, Li Xuegang was a famous musician, and one of the pioneers of the rock-and-roll world. He had a few million followers on Weibo.

“Crazy Demon that Defends his Wife—Li Xuegang. I give this show of love full marks.”

“I just feel that he treats his wife like his daughter. *covers face* How sweet.”

“Wow, my idol is finally going on to the show. I’m so excited, so excited, so excited.”

“Amazing!”

“There are seven days before the King of Rock-and-Roll reaches the battlefield. Let’s clean our necks.”

“They’re truly the model couple. They can do this. Show off your love.”

“To heck with this. Xue Mei is too blissful to have such a good husband.”

“Li Xuegang’s status in the music industry can be compared to Huang Yuteng. This would be interesting. I can’t wait for him to battle with Huang Yuteng.”

“I support Huang Yuteng. His voice is like the sound of nature.”

“Heck, Li Xuegang’s rock-and-roll is so good. I love his songs the most. How can Huang Yuteng be compared to him?”

“Qin Baobao, who is hiding in the corner and trembling, heaved a sigh of relief. Thank you those above for diverting the trouble.”

“Aish… so funny.”

“Qin Baobao’s in trouble. I’ll wait for her to be defeated by Li Xuegang. Uncle will caress your head. Don’t worry.”

Qin Ze furrowed his brows and continued reading. Many people did not think highly of Qin Baobao, but comfortingly, some people were supporting her.

“Revenge? Is it admirable if you bully a newcomer?”

“Rubbish. His own wife’s skills aren’t up to par, but he dares to blindly lament.”

“Just go and write your rock-and-roll obediently. Don’t write shit love songs. How dare you compete with my Queen of Love Songs? Who can you blame if you die?”

“Exactly, what’s wrong with newcomers? Do you look down on newcomers? The newcomer had defeated your wife. What kind of person are you? You don’t even behave like a legend.”

As he read further down, they were all one-sided comments about him loving his wife, how he was the legend in rock-and-roll, and how Qin Baobao would be frightened until she peed. Li Xuegang’s fans created havoc, and they watched on happily. In this day and age—once a singer posts something, countless people would admire them and look up to them, what more couple interactions. It just felt like Qin Baobao was the evil dragon who kidnapped the princess in a fairytale story, and she was awaiting the brave knight—Li Xuegang—to cut her head off.
