239: Chapter 239 Hmm? It seems like we've made a big blunder.

As he kept scrolling, he suddenly stopped.

In the Best Newcomer nomination section, he saw Lin Zhihan's name, with a note next to it stating that qingyu had received a nomination.

Scrolling down a few more lines, he saw Zhou Yichen's name again, except he was nominated for Best Male Singer of the Year...

Even Zhou Yichen received a nomination...

Seeing this, Lu Li almost wanted to curse. Without a word, he continued scrolling down with a dark face.

However, scrolling to the very end of the list, there was no sign of the Rock Sugar Pear duo, no coral sea, and no blue and white porcelain...

There was only a blank space.

Shen Qingxue sighed, reached out to pat Lu Li, and tried to soothe his unhappy mood at the moment.

Then she grabbed the mouse, dragged the page back up a bit, and looked through it again.

But the result was still the same.

The living room was quiet for quite a while.

Lu Li moved the laptop aside, leaned against the back of the sofa, and stared at the ceiling in silence for several seconds.

"Damn! What the hell kind of shitty Golden Melody Awards is this? Just like you said, are these judges deaf?"

His voice wasn't loud, but the emotion in his tone was clearly hard to suppress.

No way around it, he was genuinely angry.

If even songs by singers like Jay Chou and Old Xue couldn't be nominated for this shitty Golden Melody Awards, then this award wasn't even worth winning.

It's all a fake award, screw it!

"It's fine, worst case we just won't take this award." Shen Qingxue gently patted his back and consoled him.

Hearing this, Lu Li felt even angrier.

"I'm really not just saying this, but trash like Zhou Yichen can get nominated, and that qingyu can get nominated too? You have to know their numbers never beat ours, yet they still got nominated."

Shen Qingxue was also very helpless about this, her heart filled with uncontainable disappointment.

Because even if they didn't win in the end, she could actually accept it, but the result was that they didn't even get a nomination...

"I'm seriously done, what kind of crap Golden Melody Awards, more like sole-of-the-shoe award, go fuck he*..."

Lu Li walked straight to the balcony, letting out a barrage of curses into the air while muttering angrily.

Shen Qingxue shook her head. Given the current situation, she had no choice but to helplessly exit the official website of the Golden Melody Awards.

But right as she returned to the previous page, she was startled to discover that a new notice had appeared on the official website of the Golden Melody Awards...

[Due to special circumstances regarding the contractual status of artists for some participating works, after review by the organizing committee, an additional supplementary public announcement page has been set up.]

A sudden premonition welled up in her heart.

Thus, Shen Qingxue instinctively clicked on the notice, and the brand-new content that popped up inside instantly left her stunned...

"After review by the organizing committee, internet musicians Shen Qingxue and Lu Li participated as independent creators. Their creative quality meets the evaluation standards, therefore supplementary nominations are as follows..."

It was a uniform list of nominations; looking across it, almost every song the two of them had ever released had received a nomination!

Shen Qingxue instinctively looked toward the balcony.

And over on the balcony, Lu Li was still cursing away, practically greeting all eighteen generations of the organizing committee's ancestors.

"Lu Li!"

She quickly called out.

"What is it, Xuexue? I'm busy greeting them right now, if you have something to say let's talk later!"

Lu Li didn't even turn his head and continued his output.

"Pfft... Stop cursing for a moment and come look at this."

There was a trace of uncontainable amusement in Shen Qingxue's voice.

Lu Li was in the middle of cursing enthusiastically, and upon hearing this, he instinctively turned around.

"Look at what?"

"You come over first."

Lu Li walked back from the balcony, unwilling, still muttering under his breath.

"Give me two more glasses of water and I can keep cursing for another half hour..."

Then he walked over to the sofa and looked down at the computer screen.

But when he saw the content clearly, his whole person froze.

Shen Qingxue moved the laptop screen closer to him to make sure he could see it clearly enough.

"Take another closer look?"

Lu Li's gaze fell on the text on the screen, scanning line by line from top to bottom, his mouth slightly open.

Below was a long list of names.

Aside from a few other internet singers he didn't recognize, looking across the board, almost a massive chunk of the nominations were the names of the two of them.

Lu Li stared at the screen for a full five seconds, and then his whole person was still a bit dazed.

"Ah this, no this..."

His voice was a bit dry.

"What does this mean?"

Seeing his expression, Shen Qingxue finally couldn't hold back her laughter.

"It means that the Golden Melody Awards organizing committee opened a separate page and listed all the nominations for internet singers right here."

"So you didn't see it wrong. It's not that we don't have nominations; rather, we should say we have even more nominations than the average person."

Lu Li opened his mouth, then closed it.

He blinked, glanced down at the screen again, and confirmed he hadn't misread it.

Holy shit! Just a casual count yielded over a dozen nominations.

Over a dozen, and that was just for him alone.

Because Shen Qingxue had quite a few on her side as well, which was simply outrageous. No wonder the Golden Melody Awards organizing committee opened an additional announcement.

Only...

He had stood on the balcony cursing for a full five minutes, chewing out the organizing committee from top to bottom.

And as a result, they turned around and threw this many nominations at him?!

Lu Li felt his face burning slightly, and his mood could only be described as a rollercoaster.

"Emm... So, after all my cursing for half a day, it turned out to be a huge blunder in the end?"

Shen Qingxue pursed her lips and solemnly nodded.

"Mhm, you cursed the wrong people."

"And you cursed pretty harshly too. Let me think, it seemed like..."

Lu Li fell silent for two seconds, then decisively put on a serious expression and cleared his throat.

"Ahem ahem, did I say anything just now? Why don't I remember? The people at the organizing committee are all great, you say I cursed at them? Was there such a thing? Is there?"

Seeing his face-changing act, Shen Qingxue smiled exasperatedly.

"Who says so? You were cursing so energetically just now, do you want me to repeat it for you?"

"No need, no need, no need!"

Lu Li waved his hands repeatedly.

"Actually, I just purely wanted to roast Zhou Yichen, so what does what I said just now have to do with the organizing committee? It has completely nothing to do with them, alright!"

Watching him spout nonsense with such a straight face, Shen Qingxue finally couldn't hold back her laughter.

"With your speed of changing faces, you could really go perform Sichuan opera."

Lu Li pretended not to hear, clicked on that notice again, and carefully read it through from start to finish.

In the end, the more he looked, the less he could suppress the corners of his mouth.

Best Song of the Year, Best Male/Female Singer of the Year, Best Composer of the Year, Best Lyricist of the Year...

Adding up all these nominations, if placed on any properly debuted singer, it would be enough to brag about for several years.

Not to mention they were just an internet duo that had been established for a short time, with no corporate background whatsoever, fighting entirely on their own.

Seeing his reaction, Shen Qingxue also relaxed and leaned against his side.

"Yeah, we originally thought we could get one or two nominations at most, but we ended up getting this many straight away."
