it was one of the Pink Girl Group's signature hits, \"Maiden's Heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The intro carried a faint sense of melancholy, describing a story where a young girl moves from secret crush to confession, only for it to end abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When this song was first released, fans fought fiercely over its meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some believed the song depicted the feelings of a secret love that never came to fruition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others argued that the girl's confession in the song was successful, and the abrupt ending implied she was embarking on another journey with her beloved, thus leaving a cliffhanger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pink Girl Group had twelve signature hits in total, but \"Maiden's Heart\" was the only one released without an accompanying music video.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maiden's Heart\" was the first charting single released by the Pink Girl Group, and it was through this song that the team skyrocketed to fame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that by the time their second charting single was released, the company had secured funding, so the music video and merchandise were fully produced and matched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fans had suggested countless times to remake the \"Maiden's Heart\" project, hoping for a corresponding music video and merchandise, but the company simply played dead, pretending not to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the group had disbanded, this matter could only become a permanent regret lingering in the hearts of the fans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, revisiting \"Maiden's Heart,\" every female trainee present transformed into a fan; the moment Jin Li sang the first line, it triggered a chorus from the entire audience!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The day the wind chimes rang, you stood before the blackboard,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a pristine white shirt, the breeze blew through midsummer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My mood wandered back and forth, scattering in disarray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using long years to engrave your image~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere on stage needed no further ignition; the chorus was the best affirmation for Jin Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither Sister Fang nor Jin Li had made a wrong move; playing on nostalgia was the ultimate trump card!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jin Li's performance was obviously not that simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After playing a segment on the piano, she first walked out to interact with the trainees, then sat back down in front of the piano.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One chorus passed, and just as it seemed they were moving to the next, the melody suddenly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trainees all widened their eyes; this melody... they had never heard it before!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this a medley?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li continued singing, and now not only the trainees but even the mentors were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lyrics remained unchanged, but Jin Li had altered the composition!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sang the same line of lyrics, evoking two completely different feelings!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I waited for a long time, as sunlight rose and slanted west,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind chimes continued to ring, yet no one stood before the blackboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silent silence could not extinguish my wandering heart,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You appeared in every corner of my diary~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My heart's affairs, the matters I wish to forget yet remember firmly~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You appeared in every corner of my world~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stage was pitch black, with only a single beam of pure white light shining upon Jin Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The screen behind her flashed with deep blue lines, outlining galaxy after galaxy, while the floor transformed beneath her, until Jin Li stood upon a mysterious and magnificent nebula.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seemed to stand at the center of the universe singing, transformed into a flawless elf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Jin Li's interpretation, this song no longer felt regretful, but was instead filled with anticipation for meeting again in the future!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—The maiden's heart remains forever in that midsummer, yet midsummer will return once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trainees screamed excitedly, tears welling in their eyes, as if they had returned to the summer when the Pink Girl Group debuted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind was still so gentle, the weather still so fine, and they were still here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the melody had changed, as long as Jin Li opened her mouth, any song could be sung in \"Jin Li's style\"!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Absolutely incredible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the song ended, Jin Li stood up and bowed deeply to the crowd below the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt her heart beating very fast; unsure if it was influenced by the atmosphere or if she was slightly nervous, her limbs felt a bit stiff as she walked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li took a deep breath and said solemnly to everyone, \"Hello everyone, I am Jin Li, and I have returned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaaaaah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whistles, cheers, screams, applause... all sounds ultimately merged into one, and that was—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jin Li!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stage lights dimmed again; Jin Li left the stage, and the first group of trainees prepared to take the baton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dim stage concealed Lian Baozhi's stiff and ugly expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li's explosive rise to fame was indeed due to good luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she had misjudged one thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li's explosive rise to fame was not just due to good luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chengzi, you're not worried now, are you?\" Chen Lin whispered into Gu Cheng's ear, saying softly, \"That senior is incredibly powerful; just look at how explosive this venue is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Cheng disdainfully pushed Chen Lin's face away, saying, \"I was never worried to begin with.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the soaring arch of his eyebrows told of the owner's excellent mood at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li had not changed her performance outfit; she simply went backstage to touch up her makeup before returning to the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, she did not appear as a performer; instead, she sat in the mentor's seat, right next to Lian Baozhi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lian Baozhi's performance was scheduled third among the mentors, meaning she would not appear until the second half of the recording.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During a break in the recording, Jin Li turned and asked her, \"Teacher Lian Baozhi, what do you think of my stage performance?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lian Baozhi curled the corner of his mouth into a smile. \"Teacher Jin Li truly has not lost her edge; despite not stepping onto a stage for three years, her voice remains so moving. It is just a pity that she only sings old songs and never new ones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li smiled faintly. \"There are so many old songs I cannot finish singing them all, leaving no room for new ones. Oh, I nearly forgot; it seems Teacher Lian Baozhi does not have a single old song to her name.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A direct hit to the heart!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lian Baozhi took a few deep breaths, turned his head away, and fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four long hours passed, finally arriving at noon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li left the stage with a slightly pale complexion; her body could barely hold up. Singing right at the start had drained much of her strength and spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toward the end, she had been praying to Mazu within her jade pendant, hoping to endure just a little longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang came to escort her to lunch. Upon seeing her complexion, her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly asked, \"How is it? Is your body holding up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li shook her head, her breathing slightly uneven. \"Not really.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang said anxiously, \"Should we go to the hospital? I will tell the production team right now that we will not participate in recording the second half!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li pulled the nervous Sui Lingfang back, took a long, deep breath, and said, \"No need. Just apply to the production team for three hours of rest; my body should recover by then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She offered Sister Fang a reassuring smile. \"I just feel extremely tired.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet her frail posture made Sui Lingfang feel, no matter how she looked at it, that Jin Li was forcing herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li desperately wanted to leave the island; if she could just visit the Mazu Temple in Haikou and pray, she would immediately become vigorous and lively again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this matter was difficult to explain, and since the program was currently being recorded, it was impossible to allow a mentor to leave midway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang immediately applied to the production team for rest. The on-site director suspected this was merely an excuse and specifically followed over to check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result was that after removing her makeup, Jin Li's complexion was so pale she resembled a female ghost, startling the director.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rest; she must rest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The director even said, \"I will inform the higher-ups. She can rest for as long as she needs. If she truly cannot make it, she does not have to come for the second half of the recording; that clause was mentioned when signing the contract anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang was also somewhat flustered; she repeatedly thanked the director, daring not to make any guarantees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An hour passed, the mentors returned to their seats, and the program resumed recording.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Cheng glanced a few times at the seat where Jin Li had previously sat; it was empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The team captain had received some news and said, \"It seems Senior Jin Li is not feeling well. She applied for a longer rest period; if she is still unwell, she will not come over for the afternoon recording.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Chen Lin said with some regret, \"What a pity. She hardly spoke during the first half, so the camera footage allocated to her was probably quite limited.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Cheng shook his head gently. \"Heaven and earth are vast, but the body is paramount; health is the most important thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1570,"2026-06-15T01:57:26.148Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","07970eaa875b8255a899d9c18f3f70388b4cbd46282a754a25557bae657e4556","i-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--chapter-27","i-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--chapter-25",794,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--cover.jpg"]
