His Genius Wife Is A Superstar Chapter 556 - Real Monster Of Insanity

Chapter 556 - Real Monster Of Insanity

To most of the people watching the performance, the constant change in tempo and melody sounded fun and amazing. But to the musicians listening, they immediately recognized the high level of difficulty Enrique Valdez was injecting to the music.

Iris was bearing the most brunt of her music mentor constantly changing things up in her song. Eros and the other band members might have improved a lot in their skills since their music collaboration, but they were still lacking in experience when it came to keeping up with the advanced and complicated techniques of a master musician like Enrique Valdez. As a result, she had to covertly wrest control of the music from her mentor again and again while making it appear as if Eros was still the one leading everything as the lead guitarist.

Her deception worked on most of the people, but the expert musicians among the audience and viewers noticed what was really happening.

"Enrique Valdez is really putting the pressure on Iris," DJ Song commented.

"The brat is tough. She won't buckle to anyone's pressure easily, even if it's someone like Enrique Valdez. In fact, I've never seen her buckle down to pressure before. I've tried pressuring her so many times already but she just ends up quarreling with me! I've never met such a stubborn and hard-headed brat in my entire life!" JJ grumbled yet there was pride in his tone.

DJ Song chuckled. "Never met a stubborn and hard-headed brat before? Are you sure? Look in the mirror. I guarantee that you'll meet one."

"You! Hmph! Stop talking to me. I need to focus on this performance. The protégé of JJ, famous and award-winning music producer, is currently performing with THE legendary hitmaker, Enrique Valdez! Even that pipsqueak Jin Chonglin had never achieved this! He should've transferred to my record label when I offered him long ago. Now my protégé is going to eclipse him in the music industry! Ahahaha!"

"You're the one who should stop talking," DJ told his friend while shaking his head in a helpless manner. Then he glanced at Jin Liwei, Grandma Li and Huang Yuyan. "You should be careful of your words. The Jins are here. They might take offense if they hear you insulting Jin Chonglin."

JJ was about to retort when the performance heated up. He stopped talking and focused on the stage instead.

Enrique Valdez's nimble fingers were almost a blur on the guitar strings. He was attempting to completely change the entire melody of the song. However, Iris was like an impenetrable yet malleable s.h.i.+eld protecting the integrity of her song while also acting as a bridge to the rest of the band members, not allowing them to be overwhelmed by Enrique Valdez.

By this time, the song had reached the part where Night was rapping.

"Listen to me!

I cannot breathe

Your love is suffocating me…"

If Enrique Valdez succeeded in changing the tempo, it would disrupt Night who wasn't really a full-fledged rapper. Night's skill in rapping was severely limited, relying on his natural talent and the suitability of his rapping style for the song. Any changes to the overall melody and tempo would spell disaster for him. Iris knew this. That was why she needed to protect the original tempo, especially in this rap part.

"You nurtured this monster inside of me

Our twisted love born from insanity!"

Finally, Night safely completed the rap part of the song. As usual, the screams and shrieks for him were the loudest during this part. So many panties got wet, unable to resist his charm when he was rapping.

Immediately after the rap finished, Enrique once again attempted to change the melody, making it more complicated yet also ethereal. Iris allowed him this time. However, she made sure to connect the entire music together, so that the other band members could still keep up even with her and Enrique.

Her fingers glided over the keyboard, following Enrique's new melody. It sounded awesome to the listeners, but the skilled musicians knew that it took a tremendous amount of finesse on Iris' part to seamlessly meld her playing with Enrique's impromptu melody. She also began singing this time.

"Take me away, oh take me away!

This sweet love, this poisonous love

It's killing me, oh killing me…"

Enrique Valdez deliberately made the melody more intricate in this part to make it more difficult for her.

Even without knowing what kind of surprises her music mentor had in store for her in this part of the song, Iris' powerful voice soared effortlessly, even as her keyboard playing kept up with Enrique Valdez. She matched her singing to the ever-changing melody set by Enrique, effectively showcasing to everyone her impressive and adaptable vocal range.

"Cleanse me of this love

Oh, cleanse me of this tainted love

Ah ah ah~"

She sang the last part in whistle notes, even changing the notes several times while also holding it longer than the original version.

In the audience, everyone's mind was blown by Iris' phenomenal voice. It was just simply out of this world!

"Wow," DJ Song breathed.

JJ Song was banging both of his palms on the table in his excitement. Then he stood up and raised his arms in the air at the same that Iris' whistle notes reached crescendo.

"Yeah, brat! That's how you do it!"

The other guests were also cheering like him while rubbing their arms because Iris' incredible voice was giving them gooseb.u.mps.

"L-O-V-E Iris Long! B-O-S-S that's my boss! Go boss! Go boss! Wuwuwuwu! Boss is so awesome."

"I know, Big Bro. Stop crying. You'll ruin your foundation."

Besides the two emcees, others also expressed their amazement.

"Holy s.h.i.+t! Is she still human?"

"Iris Long! I love you so much! You're so amazing!"

"Hey, be quiet. Don't let CEO Jin hear you. He might kill you!"

"Shut up! I love Iris Long so I'm gonna say that I love her! My love for her transcends s.e.xuality! If CEO Jin can't understand my love and admiration for her, then screw him! He shouldn't have become engaged with a celebrity!"

"Ais.h.!.+ You!"

As for Jin Liwei, even if these people were within his hearing range, he wouldn't have heard them anyway. All of his focus was on his baby girl. For him, she was the most dazzling woman in the whole world…no, the entire universe. And she was his! Pride filled him.

Iris Long was his woman! Jin Liwei's! And he was her man! They belonged together! No matter how many pests desired her or him, the two of them would only love each other.

A few seats away from him, Jin Chonglin was also concentrating on the performance. He was a skilled musician, so he recognized the challenges Enrique Valdez kept on throwing at Iris throughout the song.

He imagined himself in her place.

Could he also perform so splendidly in the same situation? Not sure.

Would he buckle under the pressure? Possibly.

This was, after all, the legendary hitmaker, Enrique Valdez. Just his name alone was enough to intimidate most musicians. How much more when performing on the same stage as him without any rehearsals?

But looking at Iris keeping her cool and even performing her best under such a nerve-wracking situation, Jin Chonglin was once again impressed beyond measure by her. At the same time, he also felt a little jealous of her ability to handle pressure.

"Dammit, Iris Long! You're the real monster of insanity," he muttered.
