After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 1048 - 555: Another Small Goal (2)
Zhao Xiaolan felt a bit unhappy when she heard her daughter-in-law's words and couldn't help frowning.
Chen Feng immediately jumped in, saying, "Mom, that Citroën is indeed a bit low-end. My brother is now a boss who makes at least several hundred thousand a year. Driving a Citroën worth about twenty thousand really lowers his status. Plus, with two kids, we should get a more spacious car. I think we should go for an SUV like the Tiguan for about thirty thousand."
Chen Rui asked excitedly, "What do you think of the Highlander?"
"That's not bad either. You should see for yourself. Find a chance to test drive it and see how it feels before deciding. I'm not very knowledgeable about these cars," Chen Feng replied.
"Alright, I'll go for a test drive someday," Chen Rui said happily.
Chen Dayong, also pleased, added, "You better hurry up, I'm waiting to drive your Citroën."
"It's all a rich man's game," Zhao Xiaolan muttered, but didn't say more. Even though she's sometimes domineering, she's still reasonable.
After dinner, Chen Feng originally wanted to chat with his mom and dad, but his mom kept bringing up Wu Mengting, so he quickly retreated to his room.
Lying in bed, he picked up his phone and saw a few unread messages.
The first message was from Lin Yujiao, sent about ten minutes ago, informing him that her digital single had officially launched on all major music platforms. She also had promotional cover ads on those platforms.
Chen Feng replied with a "Good luck."
Lin Yujiao instantly replied with a smiley face.
Then Chen Feng checked messages from Wu Mengting. She mentioned that she'd gotten a few signed artists from her company to help share Lin Yujiao's single, hoping for a good outcome.
Sun Xiaorui also messaged him about the same thing.
After reading, Chen Feng didn't reply to those.
The last unread message was from Guo Mengyao. He hesitated to open it but ended up doing so.
[You're just an irresponsible jerk]
Chen Feng frowned, speechless for a while. After a long hesitation, he didn't block her.
After all, they once had something, and they were high school classmates. Even if they broke up, Chen Feng didn't want to hurt her again.
Ignoring her is the best way to resolve things now.
Because enduring long-term pain isn't better than short-term pain, and Chen Feng can't give her the future she wants. It's better to end things quickly rather than waste her youth and happiness.
He put down his phone, took a shower, and then turned on the TV. Tonight, the show "Good Voice" is airing its last episode featuring Lin Yujiao.
On Blue Star TV, at 8 PM, after three minutes of ads, the "Good Voice" show starts.
The group Lin Yujiao belonged to originally had 14 contestants. In the second episode, half were eliminated during the mentor assessment. Lin Yujiao luckily survived that round. But for this episode's second round of eliminations, out of the remaining seven contestants, one was chosen by the mentor as a seed contestant to advance directly, while the other six were paired up for face-off eliminations.
This time, Lin Yujiao was unlucky and got eliminated by Zhao Qiang. Although, it was really the mentors or the show producers who eliminated her.
The six formed three pairs, and Lin Yujiao was in the second pair. Zhao Qiang went first, choosing a well-known rock song. He sang pretty poorly, and Chen Feng noticed his high notes were a bit off. But you could say the flaws didn't overshadow the good parts; many rock singers occasionally miss notes, and it might add more emotion.
Except, now the stage isn't a concert but a competition, so those off notes aren't really an advantage.
Lin Yujiao chose a challenging, emotional ballad. Although the high notes weren't as difficult as Zhao Qiang's rock song, she sang them smoothly without any missed notes, full of emotion, making it sound very pleasant.
Without bias, just based on their song performances, Lin Yujiao was slightly better.
Moreover, Zhao Qiang wasn't good-looking; he just told stories of growing up in a migrant worker's family, loving music from a young age, saving to buy a guitar and practicing for years, becoming a wandering singer in adulthood. He talked about how his family went from not understanding to supporting him, and in the last episode, he even cried, saying his mom got cancer. He expressed his determination to do well, to make his mom happy, which got him a lot of sympathy points.
Speaking of which, for a man over 1.8 meters, speaking about family matters on a talent show, selling dreams and filial piety, Chen Feng felt he was a scheming boy.
While Zhao Qiang was early in setting up his "chasing dreams bravely" and "filial son" persona, Lin Yujiao merely mentioned in the first episode's VCR that she was divorced, single, and running a clothing store, without saying much else.
In the second episode, Lin Yujiao just sang purely in the competition without adding unnecessary stories, so her presence wasn't strong.
Therefore, it's normal for the mentors and producers to keep Zhao Qiang and eliminate Lin Yujiao.
On TV, when Lin Yujiao got eliminated, she appeared calm, properly thanked the show and mentors, and wished her remaining teammates the best in future competitions, then left the stage. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
She left gracefully, without the pretentiousness of hugging mentors and teammates like other eliminated contestants, nor did she, being female, naturally burst into tears.
