I Am A Prodigy Chapter 570
Advertisement
Along with the sound of the guitar, a soft and sonorous singing voice came from Ye Lingchen's mouth.
"Will you remember tomorrow
"The diaries you wrote yesterday
"Will you still recall tomorrow
"How you used to cry so often
"Our teachers have long forgotten
"How you couldn't answer their questions
"It's only when I flip through old photos
"That I remembered you, my deskmate
"Who married you and all your moods?
"Who read the diaries that you wrote?
"Who tied your long hair up?
"Who made the wedding gown for you..."
Ye Lingchen's voice was slow and soft, but on that special night, it had a deep impact on everyone's hearts. They were all affected by that song and plunged deep into a reverie.
Memories floated in their mind along with the song. At the same time, they were brought back to the days of innocence and recalled that...they were deskmates.
The scene that was still noisy suddenly turned very silent. When other people around the dormitory heard the song, they slowed down and listened carefully.
"You used to be so shy
Asking to borrow half of my eraser
You also mentioned by accident before
That you liked being with me
The sky was always blue then
Time passed oh so slowly
You always said that graduation was far away
But we drifted apart in the blink of an eye..."
Zhang Yunxi looked at the figure under the moonlight and tears had begun to flow out at some point in time. She was lucky because...he was the deskmate who was always by her side.
No one was aware that the song had ended with some strumming and humming.
However, no one came to their senses and the entire area was silent.
It took a long time for them to recover from the song's artistic conception. Unbeknownst to many, their eyes were already moist. People from both genders ran back to the dormitory to hide their faces and cry.
Everyone turned to look at the voice and discovered that the singer had already disappeared into the building, leaving only a guitar on the spot.

"It's breathtaking. When did we have such an awesome person in our school?"
"Dammit, I've earned the nickname of someone who never cries. I never expected to cry so much."
"F*ck, what was that guy trying to do? This is such a sensational time, huhuhu..."
"Bro, why'd you have to leave so quickly. I thought of chasing after him."
Everyone present was touched.
Some of the male students suddenly burst into screams inside the male dormitory.
"F*CK! I was recording just now!"
"Damn, I'm glad I decided to record my graduation. I think this song is original. It'll be a hit if it's posted online!"
"Quick, quick!"
Everyone frantically searched for the video clip and immediately posted it on TokTik with the accompanying title, [Graduation season: a heartbreaking song!]
In order not to attract anyone's attention, Ye Lingchen took Zhang Yunxi and left immediately after he finished singing.
"Lingchen, you're very talented."
Zhang Yunxi was filled with emotion. She held Ye Lingchen's hand tightly and her eyes were full of admiration.
In the evening, it was inevitable for the couple to enjoy their time together, and without realizing it, the improvised song became a sensation on the internet.
Recently, the most talked-about topic on TikTok would almost certainly revolve around the Lunar New Year, the holidays, the Spring Festival Gala, and graduation.
In particular, the time of graduation had evoked the emotions of countless people in recent times. Scenes of graduation from various universities flooded the Internet, creating a situation where many universities were competing with each other.
Scenes after scenes of students' crazy videos on campus were churned out continuously, and its viral nature had also rubbed off on the universities themselves.
However, when Capital University released the video, it was reposted and shared so much in just one hour that the number of views exceeded one million!
The number of likes reached 400,000, and the number of comments reached 100,000!
In just an hour, the statistics were still growing rapidly, so much so that one could describe the phenomenon as setting the internet ablaze.

[Sounds so good. So, so good. Can anyone tell me who this god is?]
[I've been a graduate for three years now. I cried when I heard this song...]
[Time can never be turned. Where did my youth disappear to?]
['Who married you and all your moods? Who read the diaries that you wrote? Who tied your long hair up? Who made the wedding gown for you...' Huhuhu, I'm bawling my eyes out!]
[Why write such a sad song? Cheating us of all our tears.]
[This song, every sentence pierces a person's heart. It left so many holes in me. Must it be so cruel?]
['But we drifted apart in the blink of an eye!' Yes, it really was in the blink of an eye...]
[Huhuhu, after listening to this song, I couldn't help but send this message to my deskmate from yesteryear—are you doing okay?]
[Upstairs, me too. I've always kept the contact info of my deskmate but we've never contacted.]
[The sole reason I've never changed my cell phone number is that I was afraid he could not find me.]
[You're so courageous. I didn't dare to text them. I can only bless them silently in my heart.]
...
Soon after that, the TikTok video even topped the Weibo trending searches and took the world by storm in just one night!
Aside from the feelings it elicited, the song was also simple and catchy. Anyone could hum it, and it was enough to cause their tears to stream down too.
Since it was so popular, people even initiated a large-scale search for the person who wrote the song. However, most of their rallying cries were to get revenge, as they demanded payback for being cheated of all those tears!
At the same time, major music platforms have also taken note of the song and wanted to buy the copyright.
Ye Lingchen—the culprit of everything—slept extra soundly until dawn. He had his simple morning exercise, then went home to eat Zhang Yunxi's specially-prepared breakfast.
When Zhang Yunxi and Miyako went to Y Cosmetics, he returned to an idle state.
There were too many things for him to deal with a while ago, so it was rare for him to have leisure time.
After looking at the popularity value, Ye Lingchen was slightly taken aback. It had reached 14,669,858!
Recently, the popularity value hitched on the trending iPartment and had been slowly increasing, but it increased explosively the previous night by almost 700,000 people, which was obviously a very high number.
He took out his phone, and just as he expected, he saw the news about himself on Weibo's trending searches.
The previous night's song was very effective, it seemed.
His eyes lit up slightly and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He logged directly into Music Y's Weibo and started typing.
[The song last night was called "My Deskmate" and I wrote it down after having a moment of inspiration. Looks like everyone enjoyed it very much.]
[F*ck? F*CK?]
[Mama! Music Y showed up! This song is called "My Deskmate" and it's really appropriate.]
[F*CK. I knew it wasn't an ordinary person who wrote this song. Ah, ah, ah! Just as I expected.]
[Too handsome! Oh, Singer Y, why do you have to touch the depths of my emotions every time you write a song? Why must you make me cry? I hate you.]
[Singer Y, tell us quickly! Why did you show up at Capital University? Are you a student?]
[Hurry up and release the recorded version! It's so nice that I could get pregnant just by listening to it. You have to take responsibility...]
[I'm more curious about the girl who's with Singer Y. Ah, ah! I'm envious, jealous, and resentful! I'm so sour right now!]
...
Singer Y's appearance immediately increased the topic's popularity on the internet. Countless people went crazy, and the entire internet was stirred up...

Re:Hammer - The Hammering
Sequel to the sort of liked Re:Hammer. Set in 40k universe, and generally on course. Personal changes are detailed in the Prologue because it's quite a bit. It's not really ended nor is it an attrocity like End Times, but I've got a few things to change. To note: Druchii arc (If this means nothing to you, go read Re:Hammer first) has been learned from and will be avoided. This is not to say there won't be any sex, but we will certainly try to keep it less crazy. Feedback is, as always, appreciated and worked with.

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
