616: Chapter 612: Ugly Duckling (Seventh Update) 616: Chapter 612: Ugly Duckling (Seventh Update) Mu Qingxue’s voice echoed in the gymnasium, leaving everyone sowhat astonished and unable to regain their composure.
They could not, in any way, expect that their perfect goddess would publicly confess her feelings to a man.
Many were curious about who the man was, yet feared speaking too loudly, which might disrupt Mu Qingxue’s recollections.
They simply stretched their necks, waiting for what Mu Qingxue would say next.
Sure enough, after a brief pause, Mu Qingxue spoke again, “Do you know?
When I confessed my feelings to him, he told I was an ugly duckling, too ugly for him, that he didn’t like , his little sprout.
Haha, indeed, I looked disheveled at that ti, a proper ugly duckling.”
“Unfortunately, after he rescued , he disappeared like a bubble, no matter how hard I searched, I couldn’t find him.
But I believe that heaven rewards the diligent.
As long as I keep searching, I am bound to find him soday.
I will tell him, the ugly duckling of those years has transford into a white swan.
Can you like her now?
The song I am about to sing is related to this story, written especially for him, titled ‘The Ugly Duckling’.
It’s my first ti performing it today, and I hope he can see and rember, that the ugly duckling has tamorphosed into a swan,” she explained.
As soon as Mu Qingxue finished speaking, lodious and captivating music started playing again, and soon after, Mu Qingxue’s beautiful voice sang along with the rhythm of the music.
The lodious singing floated through the gymnasium, causing everyone involuntarily to close their eyes, swept away by the charm of the music—Bai Zhiqing and Mandala included.
However, compared to the others, Lu Tianxing watched Mu Qingxue on the stage with a shocked expression on his face.
“Damn it, could it be such a coincidence?”
Four years ago, he called Mu Qingxue an ugly duckling.
Could this Mu Qingxue really be the young girl from the Mu Family?
What a coincidence.
Lu Tianxing was stunned because, four years ago, he had done the sa thing and had even spanked the girl.
Back then, having just returned from an overseas mission, he was on leave and wandering the streets when he encountered a kidnapping case.
The victim was Mu Qingxue.
As a soldier, he naturally couldn’t stand by idly, especially since the victim was a great beauty.
So, he secretly followed them.
These weren’t ordinary kidnappers; several were Martial Artists.
With his then modest abilities, it took an enormous effort to rescue Mu Qingxue.
At the ti, the girl was utterly disheveled, barely distinguishable from a beggar.
To his surprise, after he had rescued her, the girl clung to him, insisting she would marry him one day.
Annoyed, he pushed her away and spanked her hard, telling her he didn’t like ugly ducklings.
But he couldn’t be blad for that.
Anyone faced with a dirty-faced girl confessing love would first think she was out of her mind.
“It probably isn’t her.
How could the Mu family’s princess enter the entertainnt industry and beco a star?”
Lu Tianxing suppressed the ripples in his heart.
The world was vast; it was unlikely they would et again.
Maybe it was just a coincidence, but as his gaze fell on Mu Qingxue, she did bear so resemblance to that girl back then.
Mu Qingxue’s touching voice echoed throughout the gymnasium, filled with her longing for that man, her complaints and self-deprecating tone…
The song ‘The Ugly Duckling’ moved many to tears, taking everyone back to their school days.
They seed to see their past crushes, witnessing themselves as shy youths, where a single word from their crush could thrill them for the entire day.
mories overwheld everyone, pulling them into a deep reverie….
As the song ended, the curtain of the concert began to fall too, switching to other friends’ performances, while Mu Qingxue disappeared at the center of the stage.
Watching the song perford on stage, Bai Zhiqing glanced at Lu Tianxing and said, “Lu Tianxing, do you think Mu Qingxue can find that man who called her ‘Ugly Duckling’?”
Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Zhiqing with so surprise, wondering when she had also beco so sentintal.
Lu Tianxing shook his head and said, “Who knows!
If it’s destined, no distance can keep them apart; they will et again if it’s ant to be, and if not, they might not recognize each other even if they do et.
Honestly, I’d rather Mu Qingxue never see the person who called her ‘Ugly Duckling’ again.”
Lu Tianxing did not ntion that he might very likely be the person Mu Qingxue referred to as ‘Ugly Duckling’, nor was he sure that the little girl he saved back then was indeed Mu Qingxue, after so many years, who could rember?
More importantly, his relationship with Bai Zhiqing was just starting to get better and was about to co to fruition; he certainly didn’t want to spoil it now by digging up the past.
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing was slightly stunned and asked, “What do you an by that, Lu Tianxing?”
Lu Tianxing sighed and said, “There has been a saying since ancient tis that goes, ‘It’s better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes than to languish together in misery.’ Perhaps she is grateful, or perhaps she has fallen in love with that man already, but even so, what next?
What if the man she is looking for isn’t the prince charming she imagines him to be, or maybe he’s already married?
Even if she finds him, what then?
It’s better for her to keep a mory, a beautiful fantasy in her heart, surely that’s far better than knowing a cruel reality.”
“Perhaps you are right.”
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing sighed softly.
It’s better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes.
Sotis, getting what you want doesn’t necessarily equate to true happiness.
anwhile, Mu Qingxue sat on a chair in the makeup room, with a heavily made-up woman wearing a resigned smile beside her.
She was Mu Qingxue’s agent, Sister Hu.
“Qingxue, you were too reckless this ti.
Do you realize your statent earlier could explode by tomorrow?
All the entertainnt headlines will be about you; the whole entertainnt industry will be in an uproar.”
The heavily made-up woman, Sister Hu, looked helpless.
She was a renowned agent who had cultivated several superstar Emperors; had it been any other star who made those comnts without her permission, she would have scolded them harshly, but she just couldn’t bring herself to speak harshly to Mu Qingxue.
As Mu Qingxue’s agent for many years, there were many who pursued Mu Qingxue, but none who dared to use underhanded tactics on her survived to see another day.
If Sister Hu dared to scold Mu Qingxue, she might very well find herself packing up and leaving the next day.
Hearing her agent’s words, Mu Qingxue playfully stuck out her tongue and whispered, “Sister Hu, I know you an well, but you know why I joined the entertainnt industry, right?
It’s not just because I love singing, but also because I want to find that man who once called ‘Ugly Duckling,’ to let him see .”
“Sigh, I understand, but you should have at least told !
This took by surprise.”
Sister Hu shook her head gently, feeling a headache coming on.
Without a doubt, it wouldn’t be long before the whole entertainnt industry was buzzing.
She would be very busy in the coming days.
Seeing Sister Hu’s expression, Mu Qingxue felt sowhat guilty but she had no regrets.
Joining the entertainnt industry, aside from her love for singing, was mainly to let the man who once saved her know that the ‘Ugly Duckling’ had transford into a beautiful swan and she was looking for him.
