《(OLD)Play On! My Lovely Goddess!》Chapter 7: Singing Talent
Advertisement
As Li Rou approached the faculty building, she heard musical instruments being played from a distance. There was even music from a saxophone performing a solo of ‘A Careless Whisper’.
Li Hou hummed to the rhythm of the smooth jazz while she toured the clubrooms. So far, none of the clubs suited Li Rou’s interests.
“Look, it’s her.”
“She thinks she can still join a club after what happened?.”
Whenever Li Rou passed by students, these were the type of comments people would say behind her back.
However, Li Rou paid no heed to the rabble. It was clear to Li Rou that Cheng Yu’s actions had caused other students on campus to ostracize her. She had little hope of being accepted into a club for now. Instead, her initial objective of joining a club had changed. Li Rou wanted to build up reputation for points to make her breasts larger.
In order for her to do that, she had to be first had to be known for something. Afterwards, she had to grasp every opportunity the system gave her. This meant utilizing the singing talent she had obtained.
She continued to merrily strolled around the building, looking for a place to practice her singing.
...
Eventually, Li Rou reached the highest floor. There was a desolate classroom with cobwebs hanging on the door frame.
“This place is perfect.” Li Rou looked around as she entered the room. There was a dusty piano in a corner and the sound insulation foam that covered the walls were already falling off.
Li Rou closed the door behind her and starting singing ‘You Exist in my Song’ sang by Wanting. Li Rou could easily recall the lyrics having had replayed the song numerous times back when it was released.
However, Li Rou was reverted back in time. As a result, most of the songs she fondly remembered were not even composed yet. If people heard her singing, they would assume she was the one who had composed it.

“You have to still be happy, so that I know I’m not dreaming…”
Considering that Li Rou had barely any talent in singing, her singing was equivalent to the deafening screeching of a banshee despite having had swallowed the Talent Imbuing Talent.
It appeared the system had scammed her once again. Li Rou finally understood why the system had labelled the tablets as ‘Rare Garbage’.
While it was true that her singing ability had improved compared to before, there was a long way to go. She needed to consume more Talent Imbuing Tablets before being able to sing beautifully.
Despite knowing that she did not gain a significant amount of singing talent, Li Rou believed she could make up for her lack of talent with practice and continued to practice her singing. The Talent Imbuing Tablet had planted a tiny seed of hope in her.
...
Her horrible singing ability in combination with the sad lyrics from the song, caused every verse to sound dreadful and full of lament. The chorus was just a series of deafening screeches that threathened to bleed your ears.
People who heard Li Rou’s ‘singing’ in the vicinity were initially curious about the source of the singing. When they found that the singing had come from the desolate classroom on the top floor, their curiosity started to waver. Most of them had decided to call it quits and left, this is because that classroom was where a girl had committed suicide after getting cheated on.
The remaining group of people stood at the corridor and watched the classroom from around the corner. They were afraid of there really being a ghost and thus did not dare to openly confront the entity in the classroom.
Two hours later, Li Rou decided she had practiced enough. She conveniently took the fire escape staircase as it was closer to her than the elevator lobby. As a result, the group of observers did not see Li Rou leave the classroom.

“The singing stopped!”
“Is the ghost gone?”
“Hurry up and check!”
The group of people barged into the classroom only to find no one. They were perplexed
...
The next day in school, rumors of a wailing ghost started spreading in the school.
“I heard the ghost was crying that she had died unfairly!”
“The ghost is a vengeful spirit! Stay away from that classroom!.”
“Yesterday when I went up to check, the singing suddenly stopped! Furthermore, when I entered the room, there was no one inside at all!”
Li Rou’s phone silently vibrated as the rumors continued to spread throughout the school.
Li Rou remained oblivious to the entire situation and continued to return to the desolate classroom after lectures to practice singing. Although she had occasionally seen offerings for the dead placed outside the classroom, she did not think too much about it.
She was completely unaware that the ghost in the rumors people were talking about, was her!
