Chapter 231: Chapter 192 [Moonlight and Cat] Identity Turmoil (Extra) (Requesting Monthly Votes)

After the divine battle in Group B, Group A’s competition seemed rather boring to the audience.

It’s not that Lou Yitong, Yang Weize, and Zhu Ya weren’t good competitors.

Anyone who made it to the semi-finals of the Yingqin Cup was no simple contestant.

It was purely because Bai Xi was too fierce.

Bai Xi, who had already won the runner-up of the Yingqin Cup two years ago, now faced these opponents, in the eyes of the audience, like chopping vegetables, without any difficulty.

Even before the match had begun, Bai Xi, who was the fourth to play, had been continually yawning in the Group A dressing room.

"Boring...so boring....."

Bai Xi’s eyes were full of resentment as she watched the big screen.

At this moment, the person playing was the third one, Zhu Ya.

The performances of these people were like a series of lullabies for her, making her more and more sleepy.

By the time it was Zhu Ya’s turn to perform, Bai Xi was almost ready to fall asleep right there.

She tried to clear her head and showed a look of disgust.

How did such low-level stuff even make it into the semi-finals?

Could it be that there was extra credit for being older?

Group B was much more fun, though.

With Yun Qiuxiu, as well as Gan Yanyu and Lin Tian.

She had wanted to play with Gan Yanyu.

Unfortunately, they were not in the same dressing room.

She couldn’t stand it...

Bai Xi was muttering to herself,

Suddenly, the dressing room door opened.

"....."

"Oh, Teacher Zhu Ya, you’ve worked hard!"

Bai Xi smiled and lifted her head from the table.

...

When Lin Tian received the message again.

It was already the news that the winner of Group A had been decided.

Without any surprise, Bai Xi won the first place with a big score of 7 "A+"s and advanced to the finals.

A staff member came to the dressing room and reminded Gan Yanyu to go on stage.

Gan Yanyu nodded, she turned her head and looked at Lin Tian,

"Lin Tian....."

"I’m not going."

Lin Tian decisively refused.

He guessed right away what Gan Yanyu wanted to do.

It was nothing more than, during the photo shoot, she wanted to call him up, to stand on the stage with her.

Lin Tian had no interest in this.

Showing his face in public events was not Lin Tian’s forte.

"Alright then."

Gan Yanyu said.

"But, I can go with you to the stage front." said Lin Tian.

...

After that, the two walked along the corridor to the stage entrance, where Lin Tian watched Gan Yanyu walk onto the stage.

At this very moment, the Yingqin Cup trophy had already been placed in the center of the stage.

It was a blue crystal carving of a parrot, very pretty.

This blue parrot was the mascot of the Yingqin Cup.

The competition organizers knew how to create hype.

The moment the trophy appeared, along with Gan Yanyu and Bai Xi both coming out from the sides, the atmosphere in the entire venue peaked!

Countless audience members excitedly stood up from their seats and filmed the scene with their phones.

"Cell phones...?"

Lin Tian, standing at the entrance of the stage, poked his head out to see this scene and frowned; it was only now that he noticed.

Could it be that filming this competition was allowed?

"Then—"

Lin Tian opened his phone, scrolling through Weibo.

Only then did he discover that discussions about the competition had already exploded!

[So cool! I didn’t expect that sister Gan would actually win!]

[Ahhh, so moving, Miss Gan Yanyu, best of luck in the final!]

[Awesome! Brother Lin Tian, awesome!!]

[As the real granddaughter of Elder Gan, Gan Yanyu did it! She proved herself!]

[....]

As Gan Yanyu completely won the semi-final.

All the previously planted kegs of gunpowder exploded in an instant.

Some people started gloating!

Determined to drag out all the black fans who had cracked open champagne mid-show due to Tuoba Jianhui’s comments and execute them!

Some old fans, who have been fans of Gan Yanyu since ancient times, were moved to tears.

Witnessing Gan Yanyu carry the title of ’Elder Gan’s granddaughter’ from the beginning, suffering contempt and injustice to now, finally fulfilling her regret from two years ago, how could they not be moved!

The bitter has passed, now comes the sweet moment!

Similarly, at this moment, the chaos at the Qingtian Music Hall venue was beyond control.

Strictly speaking, the competition was over, and this was the post-competition segment.

Many people ignored the warnings of security guards, pushed to the front rows to take pictures and videos with their phones, and shouted things like "Go Bai Xi!" and "Fight Gan Yanyu!"

Since it was a competition tailored to younger audiences, the emergence of such a fan-like situation was inevitable...

Only, Lin Tian noticed.

It seemed like someone...

Was calling out the wrong name...?

"Go Miss Cat!!!"

A girl in the crowd excitedly shouted at Gan Yanyu.

"You and Mr. Moonlight have to take down the champion of the Yingqin Cup!!"

"....Huh?"

Gan Yanyu’s expression froze suddenly.

Lin Tian was also shocked.

What was going on...?

Just then, Lin Tian’s phone rang.

Lin Tian quickly took out his phone and answered the call.

"Teacher Lin Tian! Emergency!"

On the phone, He Zhichen’s tone was very urgent,

"Where are you guys now, you should still be inside the venue, right?"

"We are."

"Good! Listen to me, don’t move, just stay there, I’ll be right there!"

"What’s going on?" Lin Tian was somewhat puzzled.

"How can it be anything else! Right now, just outside Qingtian Music Hall, dozens of journalists have gathered! Almost all of Qingzhou’s music media are here, all waiting for you and Teacher Gan Yanyu!"

"Ah??"

With He Zhichen’s shout, Lin Tian became even more confused.

It was just winning a semi-final, it shouldn’t be like this, right? It wasn’t even a national competition.

"Don’t you understand yet, Teacher Lin Tian!"

"——Your identities are about to be exposed!"

He Zhichen yelled.

Then, the sound of a car skidding came through the phone.

"Damn!"

It was the first time Lin Tian had heard such a clear and rounded curse word from He Zhichen.

"How did it get exposed??"

"Aren’t you guys aware? On the live broadcast that was streamed all over the internet for the Yingqin Cup semi-final stage, you played a piece that Moonlight and Cat released just two days ago, and it was filmed by the audience on site and spread all over the internet, how could netizens not strip it bare!"

"Wait for me, I’ll be there in no time!"

He Zhichen hung up the phone.

At this time, Gan Yanyu had just finished shooting and came back from the stage.

Seeing Lin Tian’s troubled expression, she immediately asked with concern,

"What’s wrong?"

"Our cover’s blown, there are reporters all outside."

Lin Tian said helplessly.

"Ah, what should we do?" Gan Yanyu also began to worry.

In fact, after being called out by the audience on stage just now, she felt something was off.

"He Zhichen will have a way." Lin Tian said.

Indeed, this incident was self-inflicted.

Originally, many in the audience for this competition were there to verify the identities of Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu.

And as a result, you played a Moonlight and Cat piece which was released just two days... no, a day and a half ago!

And you played it so well!

It seemed a bit too disrespectful to the audience’s intelligence.

An 18-year-old performance duo that made a name for itself in Qingzhou City, and the top internet IP "Moonlight and Cat," could very likely be the same two people...

This kind of news was too explosive.

This battle alone was enough to make Gan Yanyu and Lin Tian fully famous in Qingzhou’s music circle.

With such explosive news, it’s no wonder that the entire music media of Qingzhou City was attracted!

Lin Tian didn’t dare to think about how he was going to face such an army of journalists when he went out later.

...

About 10 minutes later, He Zhichen arrived.

In the backstage corridor, He Zhichen saw the two of them and handed a piece of copy paper to Lin Tian.

"What’s this?"

"PR statement, I wrote it on my way here..."

He Zhichen patted Lin Tian’s shoulder, gasping for breath, and said,

"Right now it’s just the semi-finals, it’s not time to go public with the identities, when you go out and meet the reporters, just recite what’s on here!"

PR?

Lin Tian quickly opened the copy paper, which was densely packed with words.

"Will they believe it?"

"Don’t worry! So far, everything on the internet is just speculation, they don’t have definitive evidence that you guys are Moonlight and Cat! As long as you vehemently deny it, respond with what I’ve written here, and after we go back, we’ll do another round of PR for you online, that should be enough to quell the storm!"

He Zhichen said confidently.

Right now, running away with the two of them wasn’t an option, it would only make the public opinion ferment further.

Better to use these journalists for a press conference and make a statement to the public!

Cut off their thoughts completely!

"And also, memorize it, it’ll be more convincing!"

"Okay!"

Lin Tian was truly touched.

Worthy of being a top agent, absolutely reliable at a critical moment!

"Wait for me!"

Lin Tian said to Gan Yanyu.

Then, he grabbed the copy paper, quickly memorizing it while heading towards the main entrance.

Memorizing a few hundred words was not difficult for a top student like Lin Tian, but in such a short time...

As soon as he stepped out the door.

Sure enough, the scene in front of him stunned Lin Tian.

Dozens of reporters were blocking his way, their dark cameras pointed at him, with flashes going off incessantly.

Seeing Lin Tian, the crowd boiled.

"Teacher Lin Tian!"

"Teacher Lin Tian!!"

"..."

Everyone was pushing forward, eager to be first.

Faced with the shouts that surged like waves.

Lin Tian suddenly stretched out his finger, pointing to the sky.

"Stop!"

Everyone quieted down at the roar.

Lin Tian randomly picked a female reporter,

"You, ask!"

The female reporter immediately came forward, excitedly saying:

"Teacher Lin Tian, today’s competition, everyone is spreading the word that you and Teacher Gan Yanyu are the users of the ’Moonlight and Cat’ account, Teacher Gan Yanyu is ’Miss Cat’, and you, are the legendary 18-year-old genius composer Moonlight who has dominated Douyin’s music area! Is this true?"

With this question asked.

It was what all the reporters wanted to inquire.

Everyone held their breath, quietly watching Lin Tian, waiting for his answer.

Lin Tian looked down at the copy paper.

After a moment of silence, he took a deep breath.

Then, he crumpled the statement into a ball, put it in his pocket, and said:

"Yes, I am."
