I Swapped Bodies With a Female Celebrity - Chapter 46

The second live episode of Singer had reached its final contestant—the reigning champion from the previous round!

Qin Yunxuan was about to take the stage.

With Liu Qingcheng’s stunning performance still fresh in everyone’s minds, what kind of song would Qin Yunxuan deliver?

This was the question on every fan’s mind.

Soon, under the spotlight, Qin Yunxuan stepped forward.

“This song was inspired by Qingcheng’s new performance just now!”

On stage, Qin Yunxuan wore a faint smile, but her words sent shockwaves through the audience.

“I originally prepared a new song, but after hearing Qingcheng’s I Don’t Want to Let Go, so many thoughts rushed through my mind that I decided to abandon my original choice!”

For a moment, the entire world seemed to fall silent.

The live audience stared in disbelief.

Viewers watching the online and media broadcasts were stunned.

And the other contestants backstage?

They all turned to Liu Qingcheng with looks of shock and confusion.

Liu Qingcheng’s face burned red. What is Qin Yunxuan doing? Is she trying to start a feud?

And… what did she mean? Was she saying the song she was about to perform was written on the spot after hearing hers?

That… had to be a joke!

The venue erupted.

“Did I hear that right? Qin Yunxuan’s new song is on the same theme as Liu Qingcheng’s?”

“She’s improvising a song right now? That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard all year!”

“Is this a publicity stunt? There’s no way!”

“How could it be a stunt? Would Huangtian Entertainment really let Liu Qingcheng collaborate with Xingguang Entertainment’s Qin Yunxuan for hype? Are you stupid?”

……

Qin Yunxuan’s statement instantly became the center of attention.

Whether it was true or not, everyone’s curiosity was piqued—what was she about to sing?

“Director, our viewership just skyrocketed to 40 million!”

The data analyst’s voice trembled—this was an unprecedented record!

A trace of tension flashed across Director Chen’s face.

If Qin Yunxuan failed to deliver a song powerful enough to silence all doubts, the entire second episode would collapse.

In other words, the explosive start of Singer’s second season wouldn’t mean much. If Qin Yunxuan could bring this grand spectacle to a perfect close, it would be a flawless victory.

But if she was all talk—if her new song couldn’t measure up to Blue Lotus, or even I Don’t Want to Let Go—then the louder the hype now, the fiercer the backlash later.

“Qin Yunxuan… you better not let me down.” Director Chen took a deep breath and muttered under his breath.

……

No matter how fierce the discussions or how intense the skepticism, at this moment, Qin Lang (in Qin Yunxuan’s body) held a guitar, a familiar melody flowing through his mind.

“This song is called Letting Go. I hope you’ll like it.”

As the last word left his lips, his fingers swept across the guitar strings, and a melancholic yet beautiful melody filled the air.

“Watching you and her walk up to me, smiling as you say, ‘Long time no see…’”

Qin Lang’s voice was calm, but with a faint tremor—soothing yet stirring, instantly transporting the audience to a street corner where three people met by chance.

The fans quieted down. They could tell that Qin Yunxuan’s song indeed shared a similar theme with Liu Qingcheng’s I Don’t Want to Let Go—

Both were about a breakup.
Both involved an ex moving on with someone new.
Both depicted an encounter on a street corner.

But the difference?

Liu Qingcheng’s song was about lingering attachment, unwillingness, and resentment.

Qin Yunxuan’s was about release, acceptance, letting go, and hope for the future.

“Not for the sake of pathetic pride—all the sorrow was left behind the day we said goodbye…”

Qin Yunxuan’s voice carried a touch of sadness too, but unlike Liu Qingcheng’s, once the breakup happened, she chose not to cling—but to let each other go.

“One person’s letting go is better than three people’s entanglement.”

By the time this line was sung, countless fans were already captivated.

This was clearly a direct response to Liu Qingcheng’s I Don’t Want to Let Go.

Liu Qingcheng’s song had been decent, but when compared side by side with Qin Yunxuan’s, the difference in melody, lyrics, and the depth of emotion was stark.

Backstage.

Liu Qingcheng listened, her face deathly pale.

“Did she really… write this just now? If not… what are the odds of such a coincidence?”

“But if she did… how am I supposed to compete with a monster like this?”

On stage, the song soon reached its climax.

“All the youth I gave you over the years only earned me a ‘thank you for letting go…’
Letting go of your freedom and adventures,
Letting go of my own skies and seas…”

The warm, crystal-clear voice brought the song to life with breathtaking emotion.

Some heard reluctance in the lyrics. Others heard liberation.

Two simple words—letting go—carried endless depth.

But no matter what, once two people part ways, they must each move forward.

When together, no regrets for the time shared.

After parting, letting go for both to embrace their futures.

The lingering bitterness from Liu Qingcheng’s performance was completely dispelled by Qin Lang’s song.

Four minutes later, Letting Go had won over nearly every fan in the room.

Another instant classic.

As Qin Yunxuan finished, the audience couldn’t shake the lingering echo of—

“The sweet promises she made to you…
All I have left is one phrase—
No regrets in letting go…”

Compared to I Don’t Want to Let Go, Letting Go clearly resonated far more deeply.

And the most bewildering part?

After hearing Letting Go, most couldn’t even recall the melody or lyrics of I Don’t Want to Let Go anymore.

All they remembered was the song’s desperation and unwillingness to move on…

“Director, viewership just hit 45 million!”

Director Chen adjusted his glasses and smiled.

“Qin Yunxuan… you really are my lucky star.”

As the last note faded, Qin Yunxuan didn’t say another word. She simply bowed deeply, then turned and walked offstage—leaving behind thunderous applause.

“I lost.” Backstage, Liu Qingcheng’s face was ashen.

She didn’t need to hear the results to know—she had been completely outmatched.

What made it worse was that Qin Yunxuan’s Letting Go was supposedly written on the spot after hearing her song.

No one knew if that was true.

But everyone knew—Qin Yunxuan had climbed to the top by stepping on her.

Even if I Don’t Want to Let Go was a good song, this humiliating label would stick to her forever.

“Qingcheng, you wanted my thoughts on your song, right? I think you already understand now.”

After leaving the stage, Qin Lang smirked at the resentful Liu Qingcheng.

“Qin Yunxuan… you’re ruthless!”

Liu Qingcheng gritted her teeth, forcing out those six words.

Suddenly, her vision spun—and she collapsed straight into Qin Lang’s arms.
