Tempest of the Stellar War

Everyone cheered, and Snow Li clapped as well. Wang Zheng had come over to toast with Snow Li.

“Snow, you haven’t been coming over frequently. You can’t abandon your friends just because you left the team,” Wang Zheng said.

“Yeah, Snow. Without your beauty, Ai Xiaolu is getting cocky.” Takumi chimed in.

Ai Xiaolu’s voice was amazing, just as she said. God was a biased one. Some people could not only beat the guts out of you, but were also superbly talented. Ai Xiaolu was one of them.

A slightly older classic that left them all awed.

Ai Xiaolu got up and bowed, still glowing with charm.

“D*mn, Xiaolu, you must have practiced it before! So professional!” Zhang Shan grumbled.

Snow Li laughed. “Xiaolu held a solo concert when she was in elementary school.”

Zhang Shan and Ai Xiaolu’s banter had loosened everyone up. Saruman Snake had shown their stuff. As a representative, Annil sang the resounding Invincible Braves.

Ever since she revealed her ability for the tank role, everyone knew that this warm girl had a heroic nature.

Each planet’s character was vastly different. The Aslan people truly had the stage presence and a good upbringing. They were not just bookworms.

This was different from the deadbeats of Earth.

Of course, the Moon’s aristocrat, Achilles, could win back some pride for the Solar System, which was why everyone called Moon the Aslan of the Solar System.

A round of applause. Huiyin, who always liked the crowd, was in no hurry, and neither were they. The best must always be saved for last. Given the popularity of Huiyin’s concerts, there were few who got such an opportunity.

“Huiyin, anything wrong?” Wang Zheng asked. This girl was bad at hiding things.

Huiyin started. “Why do you say that?”

“Feels like you’ve something on your mind. Anything you can say to me? Although this Brother Wang Zheng is not that talented, at least I’m a little dependable,” Wang Zheng said.

Huiyin suddenly laughed. “A secret. I’ll tell you in a bit.”

The door opened. Yao Ailun and Chen Xiu had arrived. Both of them had finally completed Teacher Xiao Fei’s work. Xiao Fei was not coming. After all, she was the principal, and scared of ruining the atmosphere.

“You two are late! Three drinks each!” The bad influence, Zhang Shan, immediately caught them.

But Yao Ailun treated Zhang Shan as if he were a rock, moving in a flash to stand before the princess.

“Esteemed Princess Highness, I am Yao Ailun from Earth, …”

He was halfway through when Lin Huiyin could not resist laughing. This guy was too unbelievable, to be able to say such things as though there was no one else around.

Everyone laughed as well. “Yao Ailun, Chen Xiu. They used to be from my dorm.”

“Princess Highness, please autograph my clothes later. My three elder sisters are all your fans!”

Chen Xiu was already picturing the looks of reverence in his three elder sisters’ eyes. They wouldn’t tease him for a long time after that.

“No problem. As many as you want.” Huiyin batted her eyes.

Who would have thought that Chen Xiu took it seriously. “Make it four, then.”

Everyone laughed again. Chen Xiu bravely performed one of Huiyin’s hits.

Ailun had totally ignored Wang Zheng, and went to Lie Xin’s side. “Babe, shall we drink together?”

Lie Xin smiled. “The rule here is, for each drink a girl takes, the guy must drink three.”

“… Who set such an inconsiderate rule?” Yao Ailun said, startled.

“It’s your brother here. Ailun, you can’t let down our Earthling pride. If you pass out, I’ll carry you home. To drink it out with our Beauty Lie here, Brother will support you mentally!”

“Then I have no choice but to accompany the beautiful lady!” Ailun shrugged off his coat. Drink!

Almost everyone had sung something, including a few off keys and broken voices. Zhang Shan, Yao Ailun, and a few others were so enthusiastic that they were basically mic hogs. In the end, Ailun had to be dragged off. This guy had taken all of their minds off the main highlight, raising the mood considerably. Only then did they remember.

“Next up, our beautiful highness, Huiyin!” Zhang Shan had suddenly taken up a role as MC.

Huiyin smiled, a small, pale hand gently tugging Wang Zheng. “Let’s sing something.”

The crowd roared. Luckily they were all friends; otherwise, the jealous looks would have obliterated Wang Zheng.

Wang Zheng was so-so at singing, but that song Sky was rather suited to him. Faced with Huiyin’s invitation, Wang Zheng would never be hesitant, let alone now.

“Oh? Wang Zheng, you can actually sing?”

“Yeah, Leader Sir, how good are you? Let us prepare ourselves!”

“You better not lead our princess off tune!”

“Haha, our leader is best at setting the pace, but this is the first time I’ve lost confidence in him.”

The bunch of naughty friends hollered and jeered, but Wang Zheng dealt them a new one, shocking all of them.

This duet immediately brought the atmosphere to a crescendo, because… Wang Zheng’s timbre and feel were close to the original, while Huiyin’s superb skills immediately rose the mood to a peak, prompting a crowd sing-along.

Ai Xiaolu and the rest were surprised as well. Who knew that Wang Zheng actually had this side to him?

This song Sky truly stirred their blood.

“Against your Saruman Snake, we of Imperial Glory will give it our best shot!” Annil declared loudly.

“A good opponent is a blessing! We of Saruman Snake will not be cowed!” Takumi hollered. In this instant, he had already discarded all those stray thoughts. To be able to be involved in such a battle was good fortune for any fighter.

“Another song!”

“Strong request for another song!”

They were clearly hooked. When this professional sang, her skill level was clear. Huiyin’s heavenly voice pierced their souls.

Wang Zheng left the stage, leaving Huiyin to what she was good at.

Huiyin smiled and switched off the music. The room quietened in an instant. They looked at the little princess, knowing that she had something to say.

“This next song is prepared for someone very special to me. It’s my 16th birthday next month. I can never be with him. I hope to dedicate this to him. A song made for you – Never Left.

The moment she said this, everyone’s minds blanked out. This…

Huiyin looked at Wang Zheng. At this moment, everyone had the same suspicion. But… this… but besides Wang Zheng, there wouldn’t be anyone else, would there?

Zhang Shan, Chen Xiu, and the rest had lost their minds. Was this the princess’ confession???

Lu Die and Annil were shocked as well. Their inebriety fell from them. But they did not dare to confirm, and perhaps could not. Perhaps it wasn’t. Perhaps Her Highness just favored him, and this had nothing to do with her love.

Ai Xiaolu and Luo Er exchanged looks. They saw the doubt in each other’s eyes.

“Right here right now

“Right now

“I’ve loved and lost, I’ve tasted the sweet and sour of love. I’ve shrugged off the tricks of fate, I know what I want

“An unspeakable emotion, the sum of all that I feel. Why do I keep thinking of it, what else is there to live for…”

Huiyin’s gaze was completely locked on Wang Zheng. This was the first time she had faced him so boldly.

“Without you, I would miss my turn as I gazed at the faraway peaks. I turn, only to find that you had never left…

“I know I’m too lucky, because love satisfies everything… right now, in this moment, I want to be in your arms

“To be your warmth

“To sing for you a special love song

“Please listen to me

“Let my world revolve around you, let my happiness be your happiness, my sorrows your sorrows.

“Right here, right now

“Let us lift our heads together and await love’s descent, proof that this is no mere dream

“Right now

“Close your eyes and feel

“There is a voice

“And it says that love never left”

This was the first time that Huiyin had put her own voice and emotions into her singing. A song for herself, for her first love at 16. Everyone was lost in her voice…

Huiyin had already come to stand beside Wang Zheng. She tiptoed, and gently kissed Wang Zheng on the lips.

This was the first kiss of a girl just about to turn 16. She had mustered up all the courage in her. The purest and most beautiful love story.

Time stopped. Everyone was shocked.

Huiyins’ eyes were filled with infatuation and unwillingness, enough to melt steel to curl around her fingers. “Brother Wang Zheng, wish me happy birthday… don’t forget me.”

After she spoke, Huiyin left, leaving behind a room of petrified people.

In a flash, Huiyin’s tears flowed. Outside the door, Angela was waiting for her.

Angela said nothing, only hugging Huiyin gently. “Let’s go home. Everything will pass.”

“B… but I don’t want to go… like this.” Huiyin tugged at Angela’s clothes.

Angela sighed. She knew such a day would come, but was helpless to stop it. Perhaps time was the only solution.

Zhang Shan walked over to pat Wang Zheng’s shoulder. “Brother, you are the most fortunate and unfortunate person in the world.”

He said as he shook his head. There was no choice.

For Aslan’s two princesses to love the same person would be bittersweet for any man.

Zhang Shan knew especially well that Wang Zheng had always been waiting for Aina in his heart. That was why he had given so much of himself, and laid his life out on the line.

Of course, the attractiveness of such guys was often the most fatal.

A toast, to all the beautiful first loves of this world!
