Illicit Relationship

Xiao Tian was sitting on the chair in the competition room. This time, the competition's room was big.

In front of the stage, there were four chairs with four judges sitting on it. Behind the four judges, a lot of audiences were sitting quietly, waiting to see the performance of the contestants.

Three judges were the same judges on the first day, two middle-aged men and a middle-aged woman.

One of the middle-aged men judges wore navy blue long sleeves shirt and black pants while the other wore navy black long sleeves shirt and black pants. The middle-aged woman wore a red dress.

However, there was a beautiful young woman around twenty-three years old sitting on the judge chair.

The young woman wore a slim white dress, enabling anyone to see her perfect figure. Her black hair descended to her waist, and her skin was glistening like a beautiful jade. She had a delicate raised nose, pointed chin, and a slender jade-like neck. Coupled with her big breasts, she was like an angel, making people feel inferior to her.

At that moment, when Xiao Tian was staring at her, she also coincidently looked at him.

What a beautiful woman! She is as beautiful as my aunt. Xiao Tian thought to himself.

When the young woman saw Xiao Tian, she mused, "Isn't that the young man on that coffee shop? He is one of the top ten?"

The young woman was curious and looked at Xiao Tian for quite a long time.

Suddenly a young man around twenty-five years old walked towards the stage. He then said, "Alright, everyone. Welcome to the final piano competition. My name is Bai Du, and I'm the host for today."

Suddenly some of the audiences laughed after Bai Du finished introducing himself. Even the judges were holding themselves not to laugh.

Finally, one of the audiences said. "Bai Du, are your brothers Google and Yahoo here?"

Bai Du was used to this kind of thing and treated it as a joke, so he smiled and said, "No. My brothers are not here. They are sleeping at home right now."

One of the audiences said again, "What a pity. I thought today I could meet Google and Yahoo. Sigh"

[note: Baidu is a search engine ]

"Alright, let's stop joking. I know everyone can't wait to see our contestants' performance, right? So, let's stop talking and begin the competition. Participants, please take a ballot inside this blue box. The number written in your selected ballot will decide your turn to perform." Bai Du said

When the contestants picked a number to decide who would perform first, Xiao Tian got a number 10, so it meant, he was the last.

From the first contestant until the ninth contestant, they played the piano very well.

After waiting for about two hours, Xiao Tian's turn had finally come.

Xiao Tian walked to the stage and stopped in front of the judges and audiences.

"Hello, judges, hello audiences. I'm Xiao Tian, number 666. I'll play my original song this time. I named this song 'illusion'" once again after Xiao Tian introduced himself, his words dropped the entire area into a dead silence, and he knew the reason. It's because his surname was Xiao.

Xiao Tian immediately said, "Don't misunderstand. I'm not from that big Xiao family. If I were from that big Xiao family, I wouldn't be here. I just happen to have this name"

"Ah, that's right! If he were from the Xiao family, he wouldn't be here."

"Ahh, you are right! I was shocked after hearing his surname earlier."

"Me too."

"Me too. I was also shocked. I almost couldn't believe what I had heard."

"I almost thought the Xiao family wanted to mess around."

"Are you stupid? the Xiao family won't even put this level of competition in their eyes."

"That's right. This level of competition is not worth their attention."

"You're right."

"And… I've never seen him in the Xiao family too."

"If he was from the Xiao family, he must have been famous in China."

"That's right. When all the young masters of the Xiao family appeared on TV, I didn't see him."

"I never thought anyone would dare to use Xiao as their family name."

"Me too."

"He is lucky that the Xiao family never harmed him and his family until now."

"Ah, that's right!"

At this moment, there was a beautiful mature woman sitting in the audiences seat with sadness on her face. Tears fell on her cheeks when she heard what the audiences had just said. She immediately wiped her tears off with her sleeve and continued watching from the audience's chair as she mused, "I'm sorry, Tian."

At that time, Xiao Tian closed his eyes, as if it was nothing to do with him. After the audience stopped talking, Xiao Tian reopened his eyes.

Xiao Tian sat in front of the piano and gently lifted the lid. His face suddenly became serious, and he began placing his fingers in the black and white keyboards.

As Xiao Tian's fingers were touching the black and white keyboards, a joyful and happy melody came out and entered the ears of the judges and audience.

When the judges and audiences were hearing the joyful sound, they started losing all of their senses as if they were living in someone else's life.

Xiao Tian was playing 'illusion.'

Illusion was a song about an angel who fell in love with a human. She always saw that human from heaven every day.

She saw him as a kind, strong, loving, tolerant, and honest human. She was thrilled whenever she saw him until one day she desired to meet him and talk to him.

The angel then met God to ask permission to meet that human. God immediately told her that humans were dangerous beings because they had more personalities than angels.

However, because she was madly in love with that human, she ignored God's warning.

When God noticed that she really wanted to meet that human, God finally gave her permission but on one condition.

She had to become a human too, and after becoming a human, she could no longer be an angel.

Without thinking twice, she agreed to God's condition. She quickly descended from heaven to meet him, and after a few days, she finally met that human.

Not long after that, they fell in love with each other and decided to become lovers. She was thrilled, or that was what she thought.

The judges and audiences felt as if they were the angel herself. They knew how the angel felt at that time, or how happy she was. However, the melody suddenly changed and turned into a sorrowful melody as that human betrayed the angel.

The human only agreed to date her because she had an item that could let him get whatever he wanted. After getting the item, that human abandoned the angel in the middle of heavy rain.

The judges and audiences could feel the feeling of regret, anger, sadness, depression, helplessness, and frustration that was being felt by the angel. She wanted to repeat time and listen to God, but it was too late because God said that she couldn't become an angel again and had to live as a human being.

Finally, she lived with regrets and also died with regrets.

After that, the sound of the piano ended, and everybody immediately came to their senses. There were even tears in some of the audiences' cheeks.

The entire area dropped into silence for a few seconds before all the judges and audiences rose from their chairs and began clapping.

Ye Xueyin, who wanted to surprise her son with secretly coming to the competition, had a complicated face. Ye Xueyin didn't know her son was so talented. She even felt as if she was the angel herself. She suddenly felt proud of her son. She nodded her head and mused, "As expected of my son."

CLAP

CLAP CLAP

CLAP CLAP CLAP

CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP

And the entire room was full of the clap sound

"Alright, everyone, I know. But let me say something first" the middle-aged man who wore navy blue long sleeves shirt said and stopped for a few seconds before he continued, "How long have you been playing the piano, young man?"

"About one year." Xiao Tian said

The middle-aged man who wore navy black long sleeves shirt said in surprise, "What? One year?"

He didn't want to believe it. In just one year, Xiao Tian could play the piano very well.

The audiences were also shocked after hearing Xiao Tian's words.

Suddenly the beautiful young woman judge said, "Little brother, what inspired you when you created this beautiful song?"

"At that time, it was rain, and I suddenly wanted to create a song about an angel and human. After that, this song was created" Xiao Tian answered honestly

"Did you have the lyric for this melody?" the young woman judge again asked

"Yes. I have the lyric for this melody." Xiao Tian said as he nodded his head.

"What is it, Miss Yun? Do you want to buy his song?" the middle-aged man who wore navy blue long sleeves shirt asked

"Yes," the young woman judge said honestly

The entire area dropped into silence. They didn't expect that the young woman judge wanted to buy Xiao Tian's song.

"Little brother, I'm Yun Xin Er. You know me, right? I want to buy your song. Will you sell it to me? "Yun Xin Er inquired

"Sorry, but I don't know anything about you." Xiao Tian said honestly
