Chapter 454 May every lupin bloom in the sunshine.
Chapter 454 May every lupin bloom in the sunshine.
Upon hearing this, room 404 fell silent instantly.
The three rebellious sons, who were still immersed in the depressing atmosphere, froze in unison and then burst into a wolf howl that could shatter the window glass!
"Holy crap! Jiang Bai! What did you say?"
Su Ze didn't even bother to put on his shoes before jumping straight in front of Jiang Bai, his eyes gleaming with green:
"You spent the weekend with Bai Zhi? Like, inseparable?"
"Damn, no wonder he wasn't sad, it turns out he could see Sister Baizhi!"
"If it were me, I'd be doing a good job of listening to those two songs last night if I didn't burst out laughing!"
Gu Dapeng also went mad, grabbing Jiang Bai's shoulder and shaking him violently:
"Quick! Tell me the details! Did Bai Zhi cry after she went offstage during the recording?"
Did she mention the three of us who are her strong support?
The gloomy feeling of "I want to go home and find my mom" that I had just felt vanished completely in that instant.
The three of them seemed to have been injected with three tons of stimulants, shouting and jumping around Jiang Bai.
"Alright, alright, stop shaking! If you keep shaking me, you'll shake my internal organs to pieces!"
Jiang Bai pushed Gu Dapeng away in disgust.
"My sister said that thanks to the support of you fans, she wasn't scared by those old foxes last night, no, the night before last."
"She's doing great right now. Last night she ate two abalones in one go... cough, she ate two bowls of noodles too."
"Waaaaah, the goddess ate two bowls of noodles! This means she turned her grief into appetite! So inspiring!"
Gu Dapeng let out a howl.
Immediately afterwards, room 404 launched a textbook-perfect boasting session about Jiang Baizhi.
"Two thousand points last night! A perfect score! Do you know what that means? It's a miracle!"
"The entire internet is giving it a thumbs up; it's dominating the trending charts!"
"Brother-in-law, let me tell you, with Bai Zhi's vocal control, it would be a waste if she didn't become a queen in the voice acting world!"
"......"
The three roommates took turns commenting on Jiang Baizhi, describing everything from her beauty and talent to her character and voice.
They gave it a thorough and comprehensive praise.
The way they acted made it seem as if they themselves had sung this song, sharing both glory and hardship!
Jiang Bai sat in the chair, listening to this familiar set of small combos.
First sadness, then Dihua (a derogatory term for a person), and finally, frantic praise.
He was trying so hard to hold back his laughter that his stomach was cramping.
"Alright, guys, let's get this over with."
Jiang Bai interrupted their passionate speech, casually pointing to the lunchboxes on the table:
"Bai Zhi said that she knew you were crying so hard, so she specially asked me to bring back some tonics from the cafeteria."
"Eat it while it's hot, so you can continue crying in your dreams after you finish."
Upon hearing Bai Zhi's name, Su Ze scrambled towards the table.
"Holy crap! Bai Zhi specifically asked you to bring... the cafeteria lunch?"
"Never mind, whether Bai Zhi asked you to bring it to us or not, we'll have food to eat!"
"Brother-in-law is awesome! Sister Baizhi is especially awesome!"
Watching his three unfilial sons instantly transform into wolves, wolfing down several boxes of lunch, Jiang Bai shook his head helplessly.
He guessed right. How could he possibly break their hearts?
It's just acting!
"These people are even more dramatic than me!"
But the aftermath of those two songs was truly extensive.
The first one is popularity!
The sunlight in the dormitory was a bit dazzling, but what was even more dazzling was the string of numbers on Jiang Bai's system panel that was almost uncountable.
[Ding! Detected a continued surge in "motherly love/regret" sentiment across the internet. Popularity: +100 million, +100 million... Current total popularity: 1368 million!]
Jiang Bai sat in a chair, holding a spicy snack he had taken from Gu Dapeng's desk, chewing it continuously.
He had expected "Later" and "Lupin Flower" to become incredibly popular, but he never imagined they would become this popular.
It's not just about increased popularity; in a sense, it has also impacted society.
Jiang Bai stared at his phone screen, lost in thought.
He casually clicked on Weibo's trending topics, and the top-ranked terms left even the instigator somewhat stunned.
#Several private welfare institutions taken over by the authorities#
#Angelica Effect: Giving the Stars a Home#
#Searching for the children in "Lupin Flower"#
It turns out that last night's concert sparked unprecedented attention from all sectors of society to the living conditions of orphans and private welfare institutions.
Jiang Bai also saw a viral video, and when he clicked on it, the title was extremely hardcore.
[The Spark Rekindled: Dawn at Morningstar Welfare Home].
The video footage is slightly shaky, clearly taken casually by someone at the scene.
The impact of the video in the very first second surprised Jiang Bai.
In the video, several cars with official license plates are parked in front of a poorly ventilated old gate.
There was also a professional bus painted with the words "Medical Assistance".
The scene shifts to the lively living room of the welfare home.
The children were gathered around several doctors in white coats with gentle expressions.
The focus of the video is on an autistic boy named Xiao Jie.
He seemed to be a man of few words, simply gazing quietly at the brand-new intelligent companion robot in his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He looked very satisfied and happy, radiating a peaceful and gentle aura.
"Dear viewers, I am the head of the xx department in Kyoto."
In the video, a solemn-looking middle-aged man speaks to the camera with a sincere tone:
"Last night, because of Jiang Baizhi's song 'Lupin Flower,' we checked the list of private welfare homes in the city overnight. The welfare home we are currently in is called Morning Star Welfare Home."
"It is understood that the director of the welfare home had been experiencing financial difficulties for two years and has recently been unable to provide any support to the welfare home, facing the prospect of closing down."
The man took a deep breath, pointed to the busy movers behind him, and announced loudly:
"We have taken note of this. Starting today, Chenxing Welfare Home is officially under the unified management of the city!"
"From now on, the government will provide guarantees for all operations of Morning Star Welfare Home."
"......"
"Bai Zhi is right. The children on the ground miss their mothers. Since the stars don't speak, we in uniforms have to be their safe haven!"
The camera pans across the screen.
The teachers, who had been looking worried, were now covering their mouths and sobbing uncontrollably.
The dean's withered hands trembled as she touched the new clothes distributed by the government, tears streaming down her face.
Aside from those like Morning Star Welfare Home that were taken over by the government, many private welfare homes in various places that were on the verge of bankruptcy also received emergency support from local governments and caring enterprises this morning.
"System, this move... I give myself a perfect score."
Jiang Bai took a bite of the spicy strip, and a strange sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart.
[The system spoke softly: Host, please note, the real killer move is at the very top.]
Jiang Bai swiped up the screen, his pupils suddenly contracting.
The pinned Weibo post is from the official account of the China Women and Children Development Committee.
There was no lengthy explanation, just a simple repost and like, along with the caption:
May every lupin bloom in the sunshine.
[Thank you, Bai Zhi, for awakening the purest heart with your song.]
