Chapter 190 The Chosen One, the Great Misfortune

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengcheng rolled her eyes, thinking to herself that Liu Xixi had a pretty clear sense of self.

"You didn't say what you're going to sing, so why should I go on stage with you? Shouldn't we at least familiarize ourselves with the lyrics beforehand?" Jiang Chengcheng sighed and said helplessly.

"Hehe, I mainly just want to earn credits, I haven't thought about anything else. Chengcheng, do you know any songs? I'd like to sing with you." Liu Xixi scratched her head and said a little shyly.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengcheng pondered for a moment, then became somewhat troubled. She mainly knew modern songs, many of which hadn't been released yet, and she hadn't really paid attention to what songs were popular at this time.

"Hmm... Do you know the song 'Dream Chaser'?" Jiang Chengcheng thought for a long time. Of all the songs that have been released, this is probably the only one she can still sing.

Jiang Chengcheng's deep impression of this song is all thanks to her mother. Her mother said that she and her father met because of this song.

"Dream Chaser? What's that? Never heard of it." After all, it was an old song, and Liu Xixi thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out which star sang it.

"This is the only song from my mom's generation that I can sing now." After all, the power of her mom's occasional humming is still very strong. The melody and lyrics of this song are almost engraved in Jiang Chengcheng's mind, especially after her mother passed away in her previous life. It's like a replay, constantly playing in her mind.

"Oh? That's so far! I'll have to find it and listen to it." Liu Xixi was surprised when she heard this, thinking that Chengcheng was too old to listen to such old songs.

Liu Xixi searched for the song "Dream Chaser" on her phone's music app. After a while, a woman's voice came from the phone.

"Let youth blow through your long hair, let it guide your dreams..." Liu Xixi couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when she heard this song.

Wow! The song is pretty good, but it's way too old-fashioned.

"Chengcheng, is this the only song we can sing?" Liu Xixi couldn't help but confirm again. Although she had no problem with old songs, wouldn't it be embarrassing to sing such an old song at the welcome party?

"Otherwise, forget it. I don't know many songs anyway." Jiang Chengcheng couldn't help but tease Liu Xixi, who was still being picky, and pretended to scare her.

"Hey! No! No! No! I'll learn! I'll learn it!" Liu Xixi listened to the song coming from her phone and couldn't help but feel a little worried. There's a common characteristic of older generation songs: they sound simple, but singing them is a different story!

So throughout the day, Liu Xixi would spend all her free time listening to this song, determined to learn it and get the credits!

Unfortunately, plans can't keep up with changes...

…………

Two days later.

The freshman party was held as scheduled, and Jiang Chengcheng was forced to change into a white evening gown just like Liu Xixi's, while Liu Xixi wore a black one. In Liu Xixi's words, they were "a black and white duo, unstoppable!"

When Jiang Chengcheng heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, thinking that Liu Xixi had really worked hard for these few credits, and these two evening gowns alone probably cost tens of thousands of yuan.

Perhaps because they had just finished military training, many of the freshmen were tanned, as if they had just returned from sunbathing on the beach. While they were beaming with smiles, only their teeth were white.

Jiang Chengcheng and Liu Xixi's duet was scheduled for later in the show, but just before it was their turn, Liu Xixi suddenly messed up.

"No... Chengcheng, if I say I suddenly feel like I need to poop, will you hit me?" Liu Xixi said, looking at Jiang Chengcheng with a pained expression.

"Hehe, unless you don't want the credits, you'll have to attend even if you have to poop in your pants!" Jiang Chengcheng said expressionlessly as she saw Liu Xixi's face contorted like a pretzel.

"Hehe! Yes! How could I not! Chengcheng, we still have five minutes before we go on stage, wait for me! I'll be right back! I promise I'll be right back!" Liu Xixi clutched her stomach as she hurriedly ran towards the restroom.

There are no restrooms at the venue where the freshmen party is being held; the nearest restroom is on the first floor of another teaching building.

Jiang Chengcheng watched Liu Xixi's retreating figure and couldn't help but shake her head, wondering when Liu Xixi would be able to change her habit of letting things fall apart at crucial moments...

About five minutes later, Jiang Chengcheng saw that the previous dance performance was about to end, but Liu Xixi was still nowhere to be seen, so she quickly called her on her phone.

After two beeps, the call was quickly connected.

"Hello? Xixi, our show is about to start, are you ready?" Jiang Chengcheng couldn't help but feel a little anxious as she listened to the music that was coming to an end.

"Don't say anything, Chengcheng. I don't know if I ate the wrong thing at noon, but I feel like I have to go back to the toilet before I even stand up! It looks like I won't get the credits this time! Can you cover for me for now? Please don't let me lose the credits before I even get them! Please, Chengcheng!" Liu Xixi's weak voice came from the other end of the phone.

"You have diarrhea? Do you have any other symptoms? I'll take you to the hospital. How about we just cancel the show? You didn't do it on purpose, so it shouldn't cost you any credits." Jiang Chengcheng heard that Liu Xixi's voice sounded off and, without thinking about the show anymore, quickly asked.

"It's nothing, just diarrhea. But the program schedule is already set, and it wouldn't be right for neither of us to go on. You perform first, and then come with me to buy some medicine after you're done. It won't make a difference if we don't go on for a few more minutes," Liu Xixi quickly replied.

"Are you sure?" Jiang Chengcheng's expression was somewhat complicated when she heard this. Her body was already in this state, yet she was still worried about her credits. Her sense of responsibility was truly something else.

"Okay, wait five minutes. The school clinic isn't far from here. I'll go with you there in a bit." Jiang Chengcheng ultimately didn't contradict Liu Xixi, after all, the other's obsession with earning credits was truly admirable.

The two were still chatting when the music for the dance performance suddenly stopped; it was their turn to perform.

"The show has started, I'll hang up now. I'll wait for you at the entrance of Building 1 in a bit." Jiang Chengcheng hurriedly said a few words and then hung up the phone.

…………

the other side.

The host, dressed in an evening gown, finished her routine praise of the previous dance performance and began introducing the next one.

"Let's welcome the next performer, Jiang Chengcheng, a sophomore from the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, to the stage! She will be singing the song 'Dream Chaser'!" The host received a prompt from the production team just a second before announcing the performers, and after a moment's pause, quickly changed his words.

As expected of a top student, her reaction speed is indeed remarkable. After taking a beating on behalf of Liu Xixi, Jiang Chengcheng hurriedly went on stage to save the day.

At this moment, Jiang Chengcheng truly understood what it meant to be a chosen one with a terrible fate...
