"Hmm... Our Toupai's golden master really has such a nice voice."

Out of nowhere, a familiar-sounding voice threw out this teasing sentence.

Lisa was so startled she hit several wrong notes. She wanted to look over to see who had entered the chat room, but she still needed to finish off what was yet unfinished.

"Oh yes," Jennie sighed lightly. "That vibrato sounds sooooo nice."

"Pure and natural. No additional fancy embellishment needed." Mingyu was also slowly savoring what he was hearing. "This indeed is the voice Jungkook loves the most."

......

Lisa honestly could not keep singing anymore.

She stopped abruptly and discovered that seven or eight people had actually come into her locked chat room! Furthermore... they had all been given channel administrator rights...

Eunwoo?!

Taehyung?!

Jennie??!!

Minghao??!!

Mingyu???!!!

Rose???!!!!

And nearly all of them were online using their mobile phones ...

Lisa was completely stupefied.

"Um, well ... " Taehyung very, very politely explained, "Jungkook Dada, Lily Man Dada, I'm mortified to have disturbed your date ... It was Jennie who told me to come."

Jennie: "Minghao told me to come."

Minghao: "It wasn't me. Eunwoo was the one who notified me."

Eunwoo: "I'm eating hot pot with Mingyu right now..."

Mingyu: "...... I'm messaging with Rose on WeChat. Lily, you get what I mean..."

......

Of course, nothing else needed to be said. Rose was her channel's orange horse.

She must have one by one given all of them administrator status and sold her out. T T

And then ... she had ended up surrounded by a circle of onlookers.

Rose, in a very grovelling tone, sent a private message to her: You know ... Mingyu asked and I didn't dare say no.

"Lily ..." Taehyung complained resentfully, "Toupai is so selfish ... He kept kicking us out. I didn't get to hear the whole song. It kept cutting in and out ..."

Jennie also felt Jungkook was being extremely unkind. "It was such a back-and-forth battle. He would kick us out nonstop, and we would come back in nonstop...... All we wanted to do was watch from the sidelines to see how Toupai has a date..."

......

The whole time, Jungkook had not spoken.

Lisa felt that she needed to clarify the situation. "Actually... It's... um..." How should I say it? That Toupai asked me to sing? And so I sang? But why did Toupai ask me to sing?...... I don't know either...

Lisa was not doing well... Faced with this bunch of experienced CVs, who were all very capable of poking fun at people, this little cover singer's responses were just too pathetic.

Thankfully, Jungkook cleared his throat and turned on his microphone. "Lily and I had a bet." Jungkook's voice finally seemed to have completely warmed up and was back in its top form. "She lost, so she needed to sing for me."
