Chapter 278 Day 274 of Being the Boss
I have to say that Xu Yisong's learning ability is indeed very strong. Although her current skills can only be considered entry-level in the eyes of professionals, for outsiders, especially those who don't know much about opera, her appearance can already fool many people.
At least Quan Zhilong is now intimidated by her.
"I don't know where love comes from, but it is ever-lasting and deep. The living can die, and the dead can be reborn." Quan Zhilong raised his hand and grabbed the folding fan that Xu Yisong pointed forward, and accurately recited the lyrics in not very standard Chinese.
It was unknown whether it was because the fan was suddenly grabbed or because he heard Quan Zhilong could actually recite the lyrics clearly, but Xu Yisong paused and the expression on his face changed from affectionate to astonished: "How did you know this line?"
She was no longer surprised that he could speak Chinese to this level, but how could he even know the lyrics of The Peony Pavilion? Even if he had seen the performance before, he would not have memorized the lyrics.
When he watched the performance before, Quan Zhilong might not even understand Mandarin, let alone remember the words of Kunqu Opera. The reason why he knew this line was because he had watched "Peony Pavilion" more than once during this period.
He had watched a performance of The Peony Pavilion with Xu Yisong in Humble Administrator's Garden before, and he was very curious about the story at that time. It was not until he knew that Xu Yisong was going to learn Kunqu Opera that he went to learn the story again when Xu Yisong was learning.
Unlike the last time he watched the performance without any preparation, this time his Chinese level was much better than before, and he also specifically learned a lot of background details. When he watched the story again, his feelings were completely different.
But I just felt it was magical and amazing, and now I am more moved by the story itself.
Especially tonight when Xu Yisong sang this part in front of him in costume, it was the first time that Kwon Ji-yong empathized with the story so clearly.
At that moment he seemed to have become Yagyu in the story.
"I was surprised to find that I couldn't show my love for you, because it was deep in my bones."
The Chinese language that I had not quite understood before suddenly became concrete at this moment, and the vague emotions hidden in the short words also became clear.
Just like his feelings for Xu Yisong, he didn't know when it started, but by the time he realized it, it had already penetrated deep into his bones and he could no longer let it go.
He grabbed one end of the folding fan and pulled it slightly, and Xu Yisong, who was dressed in colorful clothes, was brought in front of him.
Looking down slightly at the face that was made even more gorgeous and beautiful by the heavy stage makeup, Quan Zhilong smiled and tapped the pearl flowers on Xu Yisong's temples, "So beautiful." It was unclear whether he was talking about the person or the jewelry.
Xu Yisong's performance was interrupted by his action, and he immediately dropped his posture and looked at Quan Zhilong. There was less tenderness in his affectionate eyes, and more of the strong pride that Quan Zhilong was familiar with, with a bit of imposing momentum, "You are hiding more and more things from me now."
I don’t know how much he has learned behind her back that she doesn’t know about.
Compared to the gentle and soft "Du Liniang", Quan Zhilong still prefers his rabbit that can bite people. He didn't say what he learned, but just left a slightly lingering soft kiss on Xu Yisong's lips, and the red lip balm rubbed against the corners of his mouth.
He reached out and wiped the lip balm on his lips and took a look, then replied with a smile: "You will slowly understand what I have learned in the future." His expression looked a little naughty, but very handsome.
It was different from every previous relationship. Because of Xu Yisong, he had so many new experiences and was exposed to many things that he had never touched before.
He wanted Xu Yisong to discover these on his own.
Xu Yisong glanced at the bright color on Quan Zhilong's lips and felt that the lipstick on her lips was rubbed off by Quan Zhilong. She took a look in the mirror and found that it was true.
The originally neat and dignified makeup now has a sense of ambiguity.
The pair of eyes, which were made more lively by powder and eyeliner, glared at Quan Zhilong. Their aura was instantly reduced by half, and they looked a bit more coquettish.
Xu Yisong didn't realize that his momentum had been reduced by half at this moment. While wiping the lip balm off his face, he said unhappily: "I don't know what else you have learned, but you have learned the playboy's appearance of flirting with decent women very well."
Quan Zhilong just regarded Xu Yisong's words as a compliment. He even went a step further and kissed her, staining the area that Xu Yisong had just wiped clean with new red.
Xu Yisong was caught off guard by the kiss. Looking at her even more smudged makeup, she said angrily, "Ahhh, I just wiped it clean!"
"I have to take it off soon anyway." Quan Zhilong deliberately kissed Xu Yisong on other cheeks, and the red lip balm instantly smeared Xu Yisong's face.
After doing his evil deeds, Quan Zhilong admired his masterpiece with satisfaction, nodded and sighed: "It's sweet."
This lip balm is a handmade product that Xu Yisong bought in Suzhou. It is sweet because honey is added to it.
With her makeup completely ruined, Xu Yisong lost her temper.
But she didn't intend to let the culprit go.
She suddenly smiled, put her arms around Quan Zhilong's neck, and softly called him "Oppa". Then, when Quan Zhilong was stunned for a moment, she quickly kissed him and smeared all the remaining lip balm on her face.
Then he left a kiss on the corner of Quan Zhilong's mouth as a winner and said, "It is indeed sweet."
In the end, Xu Yisong's beautiful and delicate makeup was completely ruined, and of course Quan Zhilong was not much better off. Both of them were left with a big clown face covered with lip marks.
After November, Xu Yisong's Kunqu opera courses in China were basically over, and had to end, because November every year is the busiest time for Korean entertainment at the end of the year, especially for popular artists.
The end of the year means the various year-end award ceremonies are here.
The most recent awards ceremony was the Melon Music Awards, commonly known as the MMA, in early November.
Although Xu Yisong did not release a new album this year, her previous song "Stars and Gravity" dominated the Melon Music charts for several months due to its super high popularity, so Xu Yisong also has a place in this year's MMA.
Of course, at times like this, FYH's artists are still performing steadily and have won many awards this year.
It can be said that in this Korean entertainment industry where all kinds of music awards are swept by the three major agencies, FYH's achievements can really be said to be quite eye-catching. Even though the company does not have many artists, as long as they are debuted, basically every artist has strength and popularity that cannot be underestimated.
As a new artist who debuted last December, Song Eun-young successfully defeated a number of new female groups with a total album sales of six figures, and won this year's Best Female Newcomer Award as a solo female singer.
This can be said to be a very rare and amazing achievement in the Korean entertainment industry where groups have an absolute advantage.
