Chapter 802: Chapter 762 Diao
Jiang Kui woke up at noon the next day.
She had a bit of a headache after the hangover.
She shouldn’t have drunk so much last night.
Last night—
As if she had just remembered something, Jiang Kui suddenly sat up!
“Ah!”
...
She screamed, her hands vigorously rubbing her hair!
Some people have no recollection of what happened after getting drunk; others, after sobering up, can roughly remember what they did…
Jiang Kui belonged to the latter.
She remembered pouring her heart out to her best friend about her recent troubles, remembered climbing onto a table in a drunken frenzy, and even more distinctly remembered vomiting all over Teacher Admirable Fish…
That’s right!
Did she also blurt out the fact that Zhao Ying Ge has a crush on Teacher Admirable Fish?
Wait!
Did she actually call Teacher Admirable Fish by his name yesterday?
“It’s over, it’s over, it’s over…”
Jiang Kui was completely in a panic, her face burning with embarrassment even though there was no one else around, wishing she could just crawl into a hole!
Isn’t it good to be alive!?
What on earth did I do!
Jiang Kui hurriedly grabbed her phone, and just as she turned it on, she received a bunch of messages.
Wei Haoyun: [If you’re short on cash, tell sis, I’ll lend you some.]
Zhao Ying Ge: [Jiang Kui, I’m gonna fight you!]
Xia Fan: [(smile) (smile) (smile)]
Chen Zhiyu: [Beautiful, do you remember what happened last night? (sinister)]
Sun Yaohuo: [I give up, it’s just a billion yuan. I’ll help you with your financial problem, did you really have to puke on your junior?]
It was true!
Jiang Kui’s face turned pale!
Just then, her phone buzzed.
Teacher Admirable Fish: [You are late.]
Whoosh!
Jiang Kui threw her phone out as if it were a death warrant!
Oh no!
She had forgotten she had to record a song today!
The next moment.
She jumped out of bed, not even caring that she put her shoes on the wrong feet, and rushed into the bathroom to wash up at breakneck speed!
Half an hour later.
Jiang Kui was lingering outside Lin Yuan’s office door, dragging her feet, not daring to enter.
“Whoo!”
After giving herself a strong pep talk, Jiang Kui gathered the courage to push the door and enter.
Inside the office.
Lin Yuan was looking down at his phone; upon hearing the noise, he looked up at Jiang Kui.
“I was wrong!”
Jiang Kui bowed deeply, her head lowered, not daring to look at Lin Yuan’s face, the image of “bowing down to the boss.gif”
“I’ve changed your song.”
Lin Yuan acted as if nothing had happened, took out a sheet of lyrics and music, and casually opened a demo track.
Jiang Kui, still stunned, lifted her head to take the sheets.
At that moment.
The room was filled with the demo Lin Yuan had previously recorded: “Diao lives in a faraway place…”
As the lyrics played one by one.
The nervousness and tension on Jiang Kui’s face gradually vanished, replaced by a rising admiration from the bottom of her heart.
When the demo ended.
Jiang Kui suddenly spoke, her tone quivering slightly:
“This song…”
“The song is called ‘Diao.’ Can you sing it?”
“Yes!”
“Then go practice it, and get it recorded in the next couple of days.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Kui nodded seriously and resolutely, but her eyes had unknowingly reddened, despite the fact that they were already swollen from last night’s tearful breakdown.
“Thank you, Teacher Admirable Fish!”
“You can call me Lin Yuan.”
Jiang Kui’s knees nearly buckled, almost sending her to the ground.
She practically fled the office.
As she closed the door behind her, a light suddenly shone in her heart.
…
At the end of July.
The hottest news on the internet was about the upcoming Bluelympics in August.
Conversely.
The season’s chart naturally made for a lively scene, after all, it was a preview of the Bluelympics!
This month, the fan support songs for each continent gained plenty of attention!
All these songs came from the hands of Xian Yu.
Because of this,
Despite the Bluelympics being in full swing, Xian Yu’s name was still repeatedly mentioned!
“Fish Papa is truly invincible this July!”
“Speaking of which, August is coming.”
“Xian Yu’s path to twelve consecutive championships will face a new round of challenges.”
“I wonder what song Fish Papa will bring in August.”
“I guess the news will come out soon.”
“There’s no official promotion spot in August, so the competition should be pretty intense.”
“Quick, look at Starlight’s official announcement, the info on Fish Papa’s new song is out!”
“…”
With some reminders, netizens hurriedly clicked on Starlight’s official announcement:
[Xian Yu’s new song in August will be a collaboration with Jiang Kui, who will officially vie for the title of Song Queen this August!]
The official announcement had a picture, Xian Yu’s poster on the left, and Jiang Kui’s poster on the right.
At that moment,
Everyone saw through Starlight’s promotional intentions!
“Is Fish Papa helping Jiang Kui to strive for the title of Song Queen?”
“Jiang Kui’s professional stats are really high, it seems she’s just a bit short of becoming Song Queen. If Fish Papa can continue to top the charts in August, then it shouldn’t be a problem for Jiang Kui to become Song Queen!”
“Jiang Kui has had a tough life.”
“Jiang Kui’s singing talent is really strong. You know, she taught herself to sing. Originally a street performer, she was scouted by a Star Scout from Starlight and entered the company. Then she met Xian Yu, and her career skyrocketed!”
“Jiang Kui doesn’t have formal training?”
“Somehow there are people who don’t know. Jiang Kui has mentioned her past in many interviews. A girl from the mountains, her father died, her mother remarried, and she had to make a living outside with her two younger brothers. Her experience is particularly inspiring!”
“I can’t believe she’s already aiming for the title of Song Queen!”
“I remember an entertainment show once showed pictures of Jiang Kui when she was young, emaciated and holding her two younger brothers. It was really heartbreaking to see, that’s when I started following her!”
“…”
In the internet era, information is transparent.
As the highest-rated singer of the Yu Dynasty, Jiang Kui’s past was dug up by many reporters after she became famous.
After much digging, the public became informed.
When Jiang Kui participated in some interviews, she also revealed some of her past.
Previously not much discussed, but as Jiang Kui started aiming for the title of Song Queen, these old stories were again dug up by netizens.
Inspirational stories are always something people enjoy discussing.
Otherwise, shows like “The Voice” wouldn’t tirelessly craft tear-jerking stories.
While everyone was discussing Jiang Kui,
Suddenly, new explosive news appeared online:
“There’s a big scoop circulating in the industry recently, Jiang Kui’s mother demanded one billion from her and filled her husband’s accounts with it. They say her mother made a scene at Starlight trying to get the money, completely cleaning out Jiang Kui!”
The affairs of stars can never stay hidden.
The commotion caused by Jiang Kui’s mother at Starlight ultimately attracted some attention. Celebrity family issues always have a strange allure to the public.
At first, it was just rumors.

Many people considered it boring, false gossip.
Jiang Kui isn’t a fool, how could she possibly agree to her mother’s outrageous demands?
But by that evening,
The reports from journalists were already quite detailed!
They included everything about Jiang Kui’s mother, who remarried and neglected her children, but then came back begging her daughter to bail out her new husband’s debts, even listing a series of compelling evidence from sources unknown…
After reading the reports,
Netizens were shocked!
The hell, this is actually true?
“One billion?”
“She really gave it?”
“To a mother who didn’t care about her and her brothers?”
“My god, how can a mother be so heartless?”
“The mother didn’t care when her daughter was struggling, but now she comes asking for money, moral blackmailing too?”
“If it were me, I would never give!”
“Damn, I can’t believe this outrageous news is true!”
“Her mother doesn’t dare to accept interviews, claiming she owes her daughter, but damn, what she owes is more than just one billion!”
“Insiders can responsibly tell everyone that Jiang Kui’s assets are definitely not one billion. Without additional business interests, a top singer can’t make that much. She must have borrowed money to fill this gap.”
“Damn!”
“As a daughter, how could her mother ignore her for so many years without a care? If it were me, I would be heartbroken!”
“…”
Netizens were completely flabbergasted!
This girl is really naive!
Suddenly, Jiang Kui’s story spread wide and far!
Amongst the sighs and sentiments of countless netizens, August finally arrived…
The song “Diao” was officially released!
