Everyone hates me (end)

12. Burning Flame

Today is the big day. The first boygroup in Xing Hai entertainment is having a mini concert.

Around three hundred tickets have been sold out. Actually Jeff bought around 50 tickets and gave them away in his Weibo account.

Some of his fans have agreed to attend the concert. He finally got some real fans. Not just black ones.

Victor Qin yawns. His brother got two free concert tickets. He dragged him here.

Jeff is too busy listening to the songs. He doesn't pay attention to the men on his left and right.

Ray smirks. They got lucky. His brother is sitting next to Jeff Lin. Hopefully there is improvement.

A new song from Burning Flame. It is sung for the first time in stage.

"I'm not giving up!"

"Strangers judged me. Believing in lies told online. Not even knowing the real me."

"Barely alive, not dead yet. Everyday. Threading on shattered glasses."

"My bleeding heart. No one trusted me. No one cared about me. Dying inside day by day..."

The rap section begins, "Online trolls bullying people again. Thinking they are omnipotent Gods. Only keyboards fighters. Unqualified as judges. Unqualified, Unqualified and stupid."

The members sing in unison in chorus section, "I'm not giving up! Someday I shall walk in light again. My head is held high. Walking tall."

They yell in unison, "Online trolls, back off! You won't scare me again!"

Jeff claps his hands. He is smiling brightly.

Yu Xiang is still an excellent composer. This song depicted his great disgust for internet bullies. People who don't know the truth and bullied others online.

Victor Qin couldn't look away. This guy is annoying for him.

Jeff doesn't recognize Victor because he is wearing a face mask. He takes a sip of his drink. His eyes never left the stage.

Amazing! The boys have gone far. They performed better without me dragging their hind legs.

Jeff claps his hands, applausing for their success. The mini concert was a success. He feels proud like a father watching his kids graduated.

Victor frowns.

Ray smirks. It's the first time his brother shows any interest to another human being.

His brother always has a cold looking face. A total iceberg.

Ray's friend, Bai Yang said Victor is modern version of Lan Zhan from MDZS.

Ray got great imagination. In his daydreaming, Victor and Jeff have walked toward the altar. He becomes the best man.

He mumbles, "I must keep the rings safe. Don't loose them."

Jeff has finished his drink. He puts on a face mask again.

Victor feels disappointed. He wants to pull that facemask away. His hand stops from reaching when Jeff looks toward him. He lowers his hand.

Jeff asks, "Great performance, right?"

"Nothing special," replies Victor.

He never likes idols and their music. He prefers classic ones like Mozart, Chopin or Beethoven.

Jeff looks heartbroken. He has hoped the boyband has more die hard fans.

Ray immediately says, "I think they got many good songs. That last one is very inspiring."
