Helplessly, the four walked onto the stage, only to find themselves standing alongside Qiu Xin Yue—the very adversary of F4—whose steadfast supporters and admirers had never imagined such a turn of events. Even high Ruo Lan and high Liang found it utterly bewildering. What on earth was Qiu Xin Yue up to? But Hualight stepped forward with Zhao Yuanhang, Fan Weizhe, and Zuo Tianpei, taking over the second microphone offered by the housekeeper Chen Jiangliu and shouting to the stage, "I will not easily give up! Our F4 are unbeatable!" After that, the F4 reluctantly walked off. St. Dorothy Mary Business School – an off-campus audio-visual store for alumni. Piano teacher Liang Qinyun was browsing through the shelves of audio-visual discs, searching for hours without success. When she turned to another shelf, she suddenly spotted a disc she had long admired. As she reached out to take it, she found another hand extending as well—both hands now reaching for the same disc. "It's you, Qinyun!" "It's you, Tianpei!" Both Zuo Tianpei and Liang Qinyun spoke at the same time, and together they picked up the Beethoven recording of "Moonlight Sonata" and began talking. Liang Qinyun said, yesterday while practicing piano, she had suddenly thought of "Moonlight Sonata." Zuo Tianpei added, yesterday evening, while composing a score, he had needed "Moonlight Sonata" as a reference. To our surprise, it was so coincidental. They had purchased two copies of "Moonlight Sonata." Left Tianpei paid for it himself, showing great gentlemanly grace. The staff also handed them a beautifully designed promotional brochure, which caught their attention. Together, they read the following literary passage: "Spread your dreams like wings, sing your authentic self, showcase your brilliant voice, and compose your youthful masterpiece."

This is the campus talent competition from Hanhai City!" Liang Qinyun exclaimed in amazement. "Venue: Hanhai City Conservatory of Music!" Left Tianpei read out. "Wow! It's been a long time since I've returned to my alma mater—should we go and attend?" Liang Qinyun was thrilled. Left Tianpei made an OK sign, and the two smiled at each other. "As soon as Gao Ruolan finished speaking, she launched a powerful aerial kick straight toward Gao Huang's chest. Gao Huang remained calm and composed, neither dodging nor retreating. In taekwondo combat, leg attacks are indeed the most crucial—hands serve as two doors, and the entire offense relies on the legs. This is no exaggeration. Thus, Gao Ruolan's aerial kick was both fierce and decisive, leaving no room for mercy. "If you had performed like this today, you wouldn't have lost to Qiu Xin Yue at all!" Gao Ruolan looked quite exasperated. "Did I really lose?" Gao Liang remained confident, saying, "Back then, my eyes were dazzled by that thing on her body, like a jade rabbit!" "Oh?" Gao Ruolan suddenly remembered that when Gao Liang had fallen, he had been holding his eyes. "Well, it's true—I lost. But still, to see the F4 disbanded, I find it so disappointing!" Gao Liang sighed. "I fully support you! Keep up the good work!" Gao Ruolan smiled. "Ruolan, would you like to take a walk and clear your mind? I have a ticket for the talent show!" Gao Liang pulled out a ticket from his pocket and held it up in front of Gao Ruolan. Gao Ruolan snatched it away with delight and said, "Great! Only regretfully..." "I still have another one. How about we go together?" "High Light pulled out another one. Gao Ruolan was very delighted and said, 'This is the campus talent show of Hanhai City! I really love it!' She then jumped three feet high. First, the host announced that Contestant No. 1 was on stage—a participant from another university. She stepped forward to the applause that everyone had been anticipating. With a lively and natural performance of the campus song "Glass Cup," she immediately captured the attention of many students present, earning enthusiastic rounds of applause. The judges awarded her a comprehensive score. Upon checking the large electronic display on stage, the audience saw the score clearly displayed as "Score!" Next, Contestant No. 2 came on stage at the host's signal—a trio from Hanzhai City Conservatory of Music. Three attractive female performers made a strong impression, each with a distinct style yet demonstrating seamless coordination. Their performance of "Angels Are Singing" was flawless, combining singing, dancing, and instrumental playing—all delivered at a professional level. Indeed, they are outstanding students from Hanzhai City Conservatory of Music. The crowd was filled with excitement. Zuo Tianpei and Liang Qin Yun sat in the front row, watching intently; Liang was thrilled and eager to step onto the stage, but Zuo gently urged her to wait and see. As the performances continued from contestant No. 3, No. 4, all the way to the final one, none of them managed to surpass the score set by the music school contestants. Just as the host was about to announce the final results, Zuo Tianpei and Liang Qin Yun took the stage—though they had not originally entered the competition, the celebrity host warmly approved. Zuo and Liang delivered a flawless rendition of the revised piano version of "The Moon Represents My Heart," which Zuo had painstakingly rewritten over the course of an entire evening, drawing inspiration from Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata." The piece blended classical, modern, and Eastern and Western elements in a harmonious, elegant style that deeply moved the audience. Everyone clapped enthusiastically. Gao Liang and Gao Ruolan, though seated in the back, clearly saw the performance through the telescopes. Gao Ruolan beamed with approval, while Gao Liang remarked, "The real drama has only just begun!" "Gao Ruolan was about to speak when she noticed a commotion on stage. After Zu Tianpei and Liang Qin Yun stepped down, five attractive female performers appeared. 'Wow! Our Five Golden Blossoms!' one of the beautiful girls in the crowd exclaimed. 'That Flower Queen is absolutely stunning—she's even more beautiful than Chang'e!' a male audience member gasped in admiration.
