The scene was enveloped in a deathly silence, and the trainees were left dumbfounded.
Shi Yu stood there, staring blankly at Si Fuqing, his eyes reddening.
âUncle Nine, this is too much!â Yu Tang said through gritted teeth, seething with anger. âThey swapped the votes! Which investor did this? Uncle Nine, you should acquire his company!â
Yu Xihengâs gaze was dark as pitch, âInvestigate.â
With that single word, Feng San was stricken with fear and promptly sprang into action.
âUncle Nine, Qingiqng must be heartbroken,â Yu Tang expressed his concern.
âBut for her to do thisâ¦â
Yu Xihengâs expression was detached, offering only two words in response, âIâm here.â
In full view of the audience, Si Fuqing walked to the center of the stage. Her demeanor was icy cold, her brows and eyes devoid of any hint of a smile, even her contours felt chillingly frosty.
Lu Ningsheng became anxious, calling out in a low voice, âTeacher Si? Teacher
Si Fuqing didnât respond but picked up the microphone and tapped it,
âEveryone, quiet.â
âShush!â
All eyes in the venue were now focused on her.
Miraculously, the fans in the audience calmed down.
âThere are things I never intended to say, but given whatâs happened, I must tell all of you todayâIâ Si Fuqing lifted her head, each word deliberate, âNo one can destroy your dreams. No one!â
âEach of your dreams is precious. As long as youâve put in the effort and strived, everyone has a bright future ahead. Why should it be ruined by some trash?â
âYou stand on this stage to shine brightly, to show everyone your hard work, to let everyone witness your growth. You wonât let down those who love you, you wonât let down your future. Your courage to challenge yourselves makes you the brightest stars! â
The venue fell into a profound silence.
Everyone was deeply moved by her words.
Yu Xiheng suddenly opened his eyes wide, his gaze falling on the girl bathed in the spotlight, his pupils gradually deepening.
[Damn⦠Si Fuqingâs words moved me to tears.]
[Yeah, why? Why can they ruin it?!]
[I donât accept this result. If this is the ranking, this group is disbanding tonight [smile]]
Backstage, Xu Jingshan was trembling with anger, âCut the live broadcast, now! â
âMr. Xu, cutting off the live feed will only make things worse,â a staff member cautioned, lips pursed. âBesides, there are fifty thousand fans present.â Xu Jingshan slammed the table in fury, âThen what do you suggest?â
The dark underbelly of the entertainment industry was vast and complex, almost impossible to fully comprehend.
But very few in the industry dared to expose these dark secrets, especially not in front of the entire internet.
Because everyone knew the size of the entertainment circle, a tangled web of relationships where one action could trigger a chain reaction.
If it really got exposed, they might gain public support, but theyâd be ostracized from the industry, potentially even harming their families.
Several investors couldnât fathom why Si Fuqing would risk her entire future just to support a few trainees.
It was madness!
âTeacher Siâ¦â Shi Yuâs lips quivered, holding back his tears, âIâm actually okay, really. Itâs okay if I donât debut.â
Just as Si Fuqing had said, he had tried his best, shone brightly, and illuminated the lives of some. That was enough.
Si Fuqing responded coldly, âShut your mouth.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Is it inappropriate to call her âwifeâ at this time?]
[Whatâs inappropriate? Say it loud!]
[With Si Fuqing in the entertainment industry, weâre set!!!]
[Go, wife! The moral compass of the entertainment world is you!]
The director hadnât expected Si Fuqing to take such a bold step. He looked bewilderedly at the producer, âWhat now?â
âJust make sure the mic works,â the producer said, throwing his cigarette butt into the ashtray. âI donât want this group to be controlled by the investors either.â
The director sighed, âAlright, brother, then I⦠Anyway, Iâve saved enough money over the years. Might as well retire.â
At that moment, a shout arose from the crowd.
The director quickly looked down to see Xie Yu leisurely removing his chest badge and throwing it to the ground, âI donât want this center position anymore.â
If they couldnât debut together, he didnât want the center position.
After all, he had other things he could do.
âDare to bully my son,â Xie Yanqiuâs expression turned icy, rolling up her sleeves. âTheyâre looking for trouble!â
She could beat Xie Yu to a pulp, but no one else was allowed to lay a finger on him.
âYanqiu!â The man quickly held her back. âThere are too many people now, letâs deal with it later..â
