Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 55: Feng Ru (14)

Silence reigned for quite a while as most of the people inside the music room pinned their eyes on Na Yu. They were waiting for her to explain herself. The rebel guy was frowning while the rest seemed to be formulating guesses in their heads. 

As if feeling the pressure from Jiang Li's gaze, the girl took off her earphones and faced everybody. She flinched for a second due to their expectant eyes, only regaining her senses a few beats later when she realized they were not giving her pitying glances. 

She cleared her throat and said, "My ears are not the ears of professional but that of somebody from the common masses. So please excuse me for that."

Since Cheng Du, the authoritative big brother, nodded, she continued. 

"So here's the case. Even I, somebody with normal ears, can tell it's a foul play, cough, quit a move to cover this song due to the original. If compared to our vocalist, the difference between their vocals is so distinct..."

"Is it good or bad?" asked Jiang Li.

"Who knows. The original's fandom may come to roast you for covering a song sung by someone with a very thunderous and husky voice. On the other hand, those who liked smooth and clearer voice would like this. I have observed that a few notes became distinct in your version. Must be due to the few tweakings on the supposed melody of some lines," she said. 

"For the original singer's voice, the correct term is not husky, but scratchy, throaty, or raspy." Jiang Li clarified. 

'Sir, let's talk about numbers and calculations, shall we?' This was the kind of stare the man received from the girl after saying that. Na Yu just felt a bit offended because the tone of voice used by the most good-looking among the boys was basically telling her she doesn't know much.

She irritatedly muttered to herself, 'This is your forte, music boys. How about me? Let's not mention accountancy courses and just focus on pure Math. How about we have a Differential Equations or Number Theory sessions now? I promise I will show you all mercy!'

The girl's fits of irritability faded away after swearing to herself to browse all materials tonight.

"Alright. I'll have a copy of this and take care of the promotion for this cover. By the way, don't tell me you people only plan to get exposure through this?"

Jiang Li left the troublesome matters to Cheng Du and the others. Those people started to argue what directions they should take. Even Na Yu's friend joined in the discussion, probably feeling like she's also their manager since her friend was.

He brought his seat to a corner and then took out his phone. The device vibrated just a second ago. Text messages wouldn't render it like that. It must be a missed call from somebody. 

'Drop by here. Your stuff is ready...' The guy's eyebrow rose after reading the message sent by an unknown number.

When he checked the time, it was after the missed call. The numbers were the same too. He wondered if this was something urgent and tried to remember anything related to it. However, to his puzzlement, nothing's popping up. 

It did not take long for another text to come in. When he tapped on it, his face turned solemn. Since the other was persistent, it could be that he was really related to the person. He closed his eyes for a moment and combed through his memories. His free hand automatically went to his forehead to massage it when it started to ache. It seemed his brain was revolting for being forced.

A few seconds later, he gave up and reread the message. 

'I heard you have now stopped doing part-time jobs. Good. Don't forget to drop by. Grandpa said the box of herbs is taking too much space here.' 

When he didn't understand a thing, he closed the messaging app and pocketed the phone. Later, he planned to go to the internet cafe to investigate what this meant. It was really hateful not having a complete grasp of everything. Since his set of memories was not helping out, he would do things his way. 

...

Three months was quite a short period of time. However, it was set to be the busiest time for all of them.

Jiang Li checked the timetable send to him by Na Yu an hour after the meeting and saw that through some unknown means, the girl managed to get them several performances slot in some known music bars. They were also a few simple gigs and a performance number on each university department's night out. 

The song recorded earlier was also already uploaded, posted first in the university's pages. It seemed Jiang Li didn't have to do any magic for it to be on top since the girl's fans already pushed it on the first place. It was quite terrific. If he was not mistaken, his friends had some admirers too but they haven't made a move yet. Nonetheless, it was already like this. 

The guy laughed to himself as he walked into the university gate. He had already confirmed who the sender was and made an appointment to get what He Chen ordered from them. It was nothing serious. But well, being careful of details wouldn't hurt. 

Anyway, when he went back for the last class today, he received all sorts of notifications regarding the cover and the band. Among them, the one which stood out the most was still the timetable. On it, one of the most notable was how rascal Su named their band 'Pesticide' and eagerly shared the news to the whole world through his FB account.

The fake blonde smugly posted, 'Our band's name is 'Pesticide'!!! Support us, okay!? Our motto is to purge pests and insects through our music!!! So once again support us, okay!!! Be a pest hater!!! I'm telling you, it will be fun!!!'

Poor Na Yu. She would have to come up with something plausible as an explanation to both the name and Su Xuefeng's cryptic yet offensive post. However, Jiang Li didn't think much of it since it's her job. Ooops, it should not be forgotten that it was more of a distraction to her heartaches. 

The other notification that piqued his interest was the one posted in the new group chat. Without him knowing, Na Yu already registered them for a contest. Now, their schedules were so full that he could already see the rebellious pianist ditching his classes for the next few days. 

"This girl and I have the same plans, huh? But she's so efficient. And I like it." The young man reacted to Na Yu's comment with a thumbs up. 

As he walked to his next classroom, his eyes accidentally went to the girl's profile pic and for a minute, he remembered the sole woman he truly appreciated from the previous world. A couple of moments later, a corner of his lips went up.

The thought was just random, a spur of the moment. But he subconsciously murmured, 'The suicidal girl looks like her. But unlike her, that Zhu Li is capable. If she's still having thoughts about that guy, how lucky of her then. He's no longer engaged to anybody. Surprisingly I did one more good thing before leaving that world...'
