Su Yang had a habit: for eight months each year, he traveled the world.
Fans often encountered him singing in some secluded, quiet bars.
Xie Yu raised an eyebrow and chuckled lowly, âThen look at her.â
Xu Xiyun was puzzled, ?
Xie Yu said, âDoesnât she look like a salted fish that has lost the light of life?â
Xu Xiyun carefully glanced at Si Fuqing, who lay on the ground basking in the sun, covering her eyes with a book.
Xu Xiyun was speechless.
It wasnât just like that, but it was precisely that.
At ten oâclock, the official Weibo of âYouth With Youâ posted a new message.
[@YouthWithYou: The second performance is about to start. Come and pick your favorite trainee! See you at seven tonight!]
The fans were thrilled.
[The second performance! Half the program is already over, time flies so fast.]
[Come on, shout with me, Xie Yu for center debut! Not just debut, but a standout debut!]
[Darn, when will Teacher Si participate in a competitive show? I want to vote for her! Voting for the mentor team is just too easy.]
Ever since Si Fuqing sang an original song âMountain Ghost Balladâ in the performance, her fan base grew even more.
Even Lin Qingyan, who entered the entertainment industry years earlier, didnât have as many devoted fans as Si Fuqing.
After all, Si Fuqingâs beauty was enough to captivate many.
Seeing no hope in competition, Lin Qingyan could only give up.
These days, she indeed avoided Si Fuqing, and even when they crossed paths, she hardly dared to lift her head.
[Hoping the program wonât play any tricks this time. Weâre not easy to bully [Smile]]
[Looking forward to Xie Yuâs performance tonight! And Teacher Si!]
[Hoping Teacher Si can give a small performance today, even just a line!]
The director and the producer were busy preparing for tonightâs stage, running around non-stop.
But they only learned about this urgent matter from a few trainees around noon, and they panicked.
âWhat do we do now? The performance is about to start, and many fans are already lining up.â The planner slammed the table, âWhen did they target Xie Yuâs group again, and why didnât we know?â
The director took a puff of his cigarette, âThey probably delayed telling us on purpose. Now itâs too late to find a band, what should we do?â
âWhatâs the higher-ups thinking?â The producer was exasperated, âCanât they see the popularity of Xie Yu and Teacher Si? Are they trying to ruin this show?!â
âWhat can we do.â The director was helpless, âYou know they invest in this show to promote their own people. Even if itâs forceful, we have to do it. Look at last yearâs movie, everyone knew adding a certain actor would lead to harsh criticism, but the capital insisted.â
âLu Yanâs family, can we afford to provoke them? Heâs a young master.â
The planner sneered, âCompared to Lu Yan, Xie Yu seems more like heâs from a prestigious family.â
The director choked, âThough thatâs true, itâs not just about what it looks like.â Xie Yuâs presence was too strong, sometimes even intimidating them.
âIâll go apologize to Teacher Si first,â the producer hurriedly stood up, âYou see if there are any temporary bands.â
The director nodded, his palms sweating.
Todayâs performance must not fail.
Meanwhile, at Lin Police Station.
Zuo Qingya had been detained in the interrogation room overnight, undergoing several rounds of questioning.
Under constant surveillance, her nerves were on the verge of collapse.
âLet me out! Yes, I did it, so what? But Si Fuqing is fine!â Zuo Qingya was hysterical, âI am from the Zuo family. If you want to stay in this city, you canât do this to me!â
Outside the interrogation room, several officers watched Zuo Qingyaâs every move on the screen.
One female officer sneered, âYoung, but with a wicked heart.â
âXingting Law Firm is involved, no amount of money from the Zuo family can save her,â a middle-aged male officer shook his head, âLittle Chen, go inform Miss Si about the progress later.â
The female officer nodded.
âWait a moment,â the middle-aged male officer called after her, âand while youâre there, could you get me an autograph for my daughter? Actually, donât go today, thereâs a performance. Go tomorrow.â
Hearing this, the other officers also looked over, clearly eager to join in.
The female officer was speechless.
She thought, Is this howyou all work, with so much free time?
At that moment, a commotion arose at the entrance.
The elder Mrs. Zuo was in a state of anxiety, âLet me in!â
But she was firmly stopped. The female officerâs tone was polite yet distant, âIâm sorry, you cannot go in. She is a criminal suspect, and you currently do not have the right to visit her.â
Even with the Zuo familyâs influence, the elder Mrs. Zuo was still unable to enter.
She had no choice but to leave and direct her driver straight to the âYouth With Youâ training base.
Si Fuqing happened to come out at that moment.
She was fully covered with sunglasses, a mask, and a hat.
Yet, the elder Mrs. Zuo recognized her at a glance and hurried forward, pleading, âQingqing, please forgive Qingya, sheâs your sister.â
She even knelt down, âGrandma begs you, please donât be so heartless and cold-blooded. Qingya has lived with you for so many years, there must be some affection.â
Si Fuqing didnât even look at her, âShang Lu.â
âHere!â Shang Lu, holding Little Bai, jumped out from the side, âOld lady, back off!â
The elder Mrs. Zuo was blocked away to the aside.
She looked at Shang Lu with a mix of shock and foreboding.
âOld lady, a warning to you, stop bothering Miss Si,â Shang Lu pointed at her nose and scolded, âIf it werenât for Miss Sits current forbearance, I would have already flattened the Zuo family!â
He had been bullied by Feng San the day before and had a lot of pent-up anger.
The elder Mrs. Zuo, kneeling on the ground, suddenly burst into loud sobs, âQingqing, this has nothing to do with Qingya, she was young then and didnât know anything, she didnât mean to take anything from you.â
âJust take it out on me. I know! I am the one who should die, let me go to jail, I am willing!â
The commotion was getting too loud, drawing attention from the surroundings.
The staff at the base were somewhat at a loss, âMiss Si, what should we do about thisââ
Finally, Si Fuqing glanced at the elder Mrs. Zuo, smiling slightly, âSorry, but the ending I left for you isnât this.â
The elder Mrs. Zuo was suddenly stunned, unable to comprehend, but continued to plead, âQingqing, Xianyu is innocent too, please donât involve her, okay?â
She didnât know why the transferred luck could return.
But if Xianyuâs luck was also taken back, the Zuo family would be truly finished.
The thought of this possibility made the elder Mrs. Zuo tremble all over.
The future of the Zuo family rested on Xianyu.
âOld lady, youâre really sick!â Shang Lu said without a second thought, lifting her up, âMiss Si is busy, donât disturb her.â
He had been looking for a chance to show off in front of Miss Si, and here someone had delivered an opportunity to him.
Si Fuqing didnât look at the elder Mrs. Zuo, who was crying her heart out, and got on her bike.
At the same time, a message popped up on her phone.
[S]: Iâve arrived, where are you?
