Even though Eudora felt that what Amos said was too arrogant, she was still charmed by his candor.
Amos was indeed the most attractive when he was full of confidence!
At that moment, Amos turned to her and their eyes met. He immediately saw the admiration in her eyes. Amos could not help but frown and say, "Don't look at me like that."
Eudora was surprised. He added, "I wouldn't be able to control myself if you keep looking at me like that."
Eudora was speechless. What a jerk!
She quickly looked away. She then heard Amos talking to Juju, "Let's change our performance a little bit. Shall we sing together?" Naturally, Juju had no objection!
"Sure!"
"Do you know how to sing?" Eudora could not believe her ears.
"We will know when we try!" As he said this, Amos quickly took out the lyrics which he had prepared. Then, he divided the parts.
Originally, it was Eudora's idea for the three of them to solo the first three stanzas. Then, they would sing the final stanza together.
However, Amos thought that it was not interesting enough. He wanted to add 'Jingle Bells' at the beginning of the song, and then he would sing the last part with Eudora.
As for Juju, she could simply sing whatever she liked. She could sing 'Jingle Bells' or just simply play along with the music.
Juju found that it was very creative and she was very excited. "Mommy, I like it."
Eudora did not have any other ideas, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
After that, the family went through their performance silently again. The performance that was going on the stage ended shortly after.
Amos got up and he picked Juju up. "Let's go."
He went to talk to the band once they were backstage. The band consisted of youngsters and they liked challenges. They were very eager to try after hearing Amos' idea.
The three of them went on stage.
A piece of clear and melodious music started playing in the background.
Shortly after, the gentle and crisp voice of a child rang clearly from the stage, "Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way..."
They were supposed to be singing the same song sung by the previous family. Therefore, everyone was discussing how boring it was to watch the same performance twice.
However, the voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The chubby family from before suddenly laughed and the husband said, "They must be afraid of losing, so they changed the song last- minute, right?"
"I think so!"
The chubby child suddenly became arrogant and he said, "Mom, Dad, that means that we will surely get first place!"
Unexpectedly, the first part of 'Jingle Bells' slowly changed into the theme song of the 'Wolf and Sheep'. However, this time, it was not a child's voice but a duet between a man and a woman.
The man's voice was low and magnetic while the woman's voice was gentle and melodious. The two voices merged perfectly and produced a beautiful sound.
The man's voice made the woman's voice sound even gentler than ever while her voice complimented his voice. It was especially refreshing and exciting as the child's 'Jingle Bells' could be heard in the background. The song was filled with warmth and it reminded the audience of their childhood.
The audience, who were previously bored, was now hooked to the performance. Someone couldn't help but exclaim, "It's so creative!"
Another person in the crowd immediately shushed him and said, "Just listen."
Even the chubby family was dumbfounded. They listened for a long time and they only came back to their senses after a long pause.
At the end of the performance, Juju suddenly took Eudora and Amos' hands to form a heart shape to the audience. The two adults were next to each other, while the child was in the middle.
Then, the child went up to her parents and kissed them on their faces. It was simply adorable!
