Chapter 193: The older sister, well-versed and knowledgeable

Jiang Cheng stopped his steps, his gaze looked toward Gao Yunyun.

As the National Goddess, from looks to aura and figure, she's impressive.

"Okay." Jiang Cheng said, taking out his phone.

Isn't the purpose of joining this show to open up a path for the studio?

Gao Yunyun wanted to get to know Jiang Cheng, so she naturally wouldn't refuse.

After exchanging contact information, Gao Yunyun looked at Jiang Cheng and gave a sweet smile: "Jiang Chen, you're great."

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment; hearing such words from a girl's mouth, especially a pretty girl's, whether one feels it depends on what aspect the girl is praising.

The male contestants nearby who were paying attention to this scene all felt their hearts melt, wishing they were the ones being praised.

How come I can't write a song like 'Longing'?

Li Yu Jiao also walked over at this time, her attire alluring and fiery, she walked up to Jiang Cheng, her gaze scanning him from head to toe.

Whether intentional or not, at the slit of her skirt, her snow-white thigh extended out, she stood very close to Jiang Cheng.

"Let's also exchange contact information; maybe we'll have a chance to collaborate later."

Having already added one, there's naturally no need to refuse a second; otherwise, wouldn't that be offending someone?

Jiang Cheng took out a QR code and had her scan it.

This made the onlookers beside them envy them to no end.

Ye Qing stood behind Jiang Cheng, her gaze warily watching Gao Yunyun and Li Yu Qiao, feeling that these two were coming to steal her things.

Chen Shu's beautiful peach-blossom eyes glanced at Ye Qing, the corners of his mouth slightly curving into an arc, revealing a smile full of meaning.

Although the older sister has no partner, having seen much, she naturally understands; how could she not understand this kind of look?

While several people were chatting at the lounge door, Zhang Anqi walked out from inside at that moment.

She glanced at Jiang Cheng, her steps not pausing, walking toward the stage entrance.

The venue's sound quietly hushed for a moment; everyone's gaze looked at Jiang Cheng, then at Zhang Anqi's back.

Although the woman's back view was still alluring, at this moment it appeared rather desolate; compared to Gao Yunyun and Li Yu Jiao, it inevitably seemed lackluster.

In everyone's eyes, her back view looked like she was fleeing in defeat.

"She can't act smug now; earlier she insisted on stepping on Jiang Cheng, but now she's been slapped in the face and feels awful."

"I only just realized that her earlier claim that Jiang Cheng's song was no good was definitely not unintentional; she deliberately said that to smear Jiang Cheng and steal his traffic, thinking her own song would surely win the championship, not expecting Jiang Cheng still had a trump card hidden!"

"Speaking of Zhang Anqi's song this time, it's indeed good; it could be said to be the best she's ever sung in her career. If it weren't for running into Jiang Cheng, after this episode her status would surely rise even higher—what a shame things didn't go as hoped."

"If she hadn't smeared Jiang Cheng, this episode might have lost the competition but her traffic and popularity would surely rise; however, now it's different—I just scrolled through videos, and many of the replay comments are full of curses at her."

"If there's blame to assign, blame her herself—trying to steal a chicken but ending up losing the rice used to lure it."

Although the surrounding people's discussion was quiet, much of it still reached the ears of Jiang Cheng and Li Yu Jiao.

Hearing these, Gao Yunyun appeared somewhat embarrassed; she had debuted for many years and never participated in such topics, and although she hadn't crafted a pure maiden image, over the years she had maintained a clean image.

So she was worried that Li Yu Jiao beside her would mention Zhang Anqi at this time; she immediately interjected: "The final segment is about to start; let's go wait by the stage first."

"Okay, let's go." Jiang Cheng also didn't want to stay here and keep talking.

Taking Ye Qing and the others, he walked toward the stage entrance.

There were already quite a few people lining up there, all contestants participating in this episode's competition.

Seeing Jiang Cheng approach, some curiously sized him up, some directly warmly greeted him, and Jiang Cheng responded with a smile.

But his gaze unintentionally fell on Han Xiao Yun; Han Xiao Yun stood alone in a corner, her eyes still slightly red and swollen, the matter of the twin heroes not yet over, with the whole net still spreading it.

As for the impact of the incident, just looking at the scene before us, Han Xiao Yun standing alone there, no one dared to get close to her.

Everyone kept to themselves, fearing that getting close to Han Xiao Yun would be hyped as being the same kind of person as her. Jiang Cheng, however, walked straight over.

Seeing someone approach, Han Xiao Yun lifted her head, saw it was Jiang Cheng, forced out a smile, not knowing what to say.

Jiang Cheng directly asked: "Do you know who's behind this?"

Han Xiao Yun opened her mouth to say something, then suddenly stopped, lowered her head slightly, and said nothing.

"Can you tell me whether the things circulating online are true?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"No!"

Han Xiao Yun, without thinking, lifted her head and said.

Jiang Cheng said: "Then why don't you come forward to clarify?"

"I"

Han Xiao Yun opened her mouth, thought a bit, but couldn't say anything, then lowered her head again and remained silent.

!

Jiang Cheng furrowed his brows, roughly able to understand that Han Xiao Yun probably had some unspeakable difficulty.

He didn't press further, after all he and Han Xiao Yun weren't very close; asking her like this was already overstepping.

So he turned and walked back.

But the people around him all looked at him with suspicion.

Curious what the currently hot-topic Jiang Cheng and the notoriously infamous Han Xiao Yun, two extremes, would talk about.

The show finally reached its final segment, the audience below excited, all gazing toward the stage entrance.

Because they would soon be able to see Jiang Cheng!

After Ya Ya announced the contestants' entrance, the crowd backstage, who had been waiting, headed toward the stage.

A group walked out from backstage.

The audience's eyes searched for that figure; at the front were a few amateur contestants, then Gao Yunyun walked out from the entrance, and cheers immediately rose from below the stage.

Gao Yunyun waved with a smile.

Then Li Yu Jiao also came out, and this time the cheers were louder.

It's not that Li Yu Jiao has more fans than Gao Yunyun; rather, Li Yu Jiao's outfit and nine-heads-tall figure are incredibly striking and eye-catching.

When Zhang Anqi came out from backstage, the cheers from the audience continued as before, but this time the sound and atmosphere were very strange.

Only a few people cheered, while the rest remained silent, making those who cheered seem strange.

They themselves also noticed this, immediately fell silent, and the atmosphere instantly turned strange.

Zhang Anqi revealed a smile uglier than crying, and greeted the audience below.

Until Jiang Cheng came out from backstage, with a8 Chen Shu and Ye Qing following behind him, the audience instantly erupted.

Jiang Cheng!

Jiang Cheng!

Jiang Cheng! (End of chapter)
