Their team encountered such a situation at the beginning of their performance. If it was an ordinary rookie, they would be more easily affected.
However, Meng Chuyuan did not interrupt the stage performance. She was able to respond calmly. This was indeed unexpected.
If the judges had not mentioned this mistake, Lu Jinsen and the audience in the live-stream might not have known about this.
[My expression is the same as Young Masterâs. Iâm really dumbfounded. I donât know what happened at all.]
[Thatâs right, thatâs right. Please replay it and see if there are any cameras that capture what happened just now.]
[I have to say that the judgesâ skills canât be underestimated. They even saw such a small mistake. Of course, Sister Mengâs reaction was also very good. I love it.]
[I thought that the stop in the middle just now was planned. I didnât expect that her clothes would be stepped on. However, this is too detailed. I didnât even notice that Lu Jinsen was on stage with her.]
After the judges below the stage gave their comments, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen came down from the center of the stage and stood in a quiet corner to watch the performances of the other groups.
He did not dare to ask when the judges were commenting just now, but now that he was off the stage, he finally could not help but ask Meng Chuyuan, âDid I step on your clothes?â
âLook at this shoe print.â Meng Chuyuan exposed the hem of her dress and showed it to him.
Seeing that there was really a dirty shoe print on her clothes, Lu Jinsen blinked slightly and said in embarrassment, âSorry, itâs my fault.â
The next group to appear was Ting Jiuâs group. When the two of them looked at each other in the beginning, it was somewhat immersive. However, when it came to the part where they had to sing, Qi Yanâs voice broke the moment she started singing.
When she performed, she had raised the pitch for the song and she couldnât sing the second line. When it was Ting Jiuâs turn, he did not transition from one pitch to another very well and he basically flopped.
Initially, the two characters were supposed to have a lot of interactions with each other in this opera. When they were learning it backstage, they had also been taught their movements and expressions. However, this part was not reflected at all towards the end of their performance and it felt like they were watching a solo show.
The two of them bit the bullet and continued singing. The expressions of the judges below the stage were clearly not good. They pretended to be calm and listened to them sing the song to the end.
After the performance ended, the judges below the stage gave way to each other modestly. The microphones were passed around, and it was obvious that they did not want to be the first to comment.
[Iâm really speechless, guys. Why is this group so funny? Hahahaha, I think Qi Zhen doesnât have to come back anymore. Qi Yan and Little Jiu Jiuâs group has a variety sense.]
[Actually, after the entire performance, itâs not difficult to realize that both of them have tried their best, but they feel very stiff performing on the same stage together.]
[Perhaps Qi Yan was too eager for quick success and wanted to show off too much, so she used too much strength.]
[I can tell that Little Jiu Jiu really wanted to accommodate her, but he canât beat Miss Qiâs desire to show off.]
[The judgesâ expressions seem to be saying something. Can you be more serious?!]
Later on, the judgesâ overall evaluation was that their performance was chaotic. The two of them did not express their emotions properly and were not serious enough about the stage.
Qi Yan listened to the judgesâ speech expressionlessly. She did not have any reaction towards their feedback on areas of improvement.
She wasnât going to sing it a second time anyway. Their suggestions didnât matter to her at all.
Compared to Qi Yanâs reaction, Ting Jiu was a little disappointed.
He studied the song seriously and practiced it many times when he was waiting backstage. He did not expect that he would still sing badly after going on stage.
âAre you messing with me on purpose? You know I want to eat hotpot, is that why you donât want to win?â
They had clearly performed quite well during the last rehearsal. They had sung well and had the basics of their interactions down.
Why was the result not so good when it came to the real performance?
Ting Jiu felt that something must have happened to Qi Yan.
When Qi Yan heard this, she retorted bluntly, âPlease, if I donât want to win, I wonât go on stage, okay? Do you think I want to sing like that?â
She felt that it was embarrassing to sing like this.
When she was practicing backstage, she was also learning seriously. However, she did not have any musical talent to begin with. Being able to sing all the lyrics was already her greatest challenge.
Ting Jiu: âThen would you dare to review the performance with me? Who was the one who raised the pitch and led me astray just now?â
âYou sang like a mosquito just now, and you still have the cheek to talk to me about reviewing the performance?â
The two of them were already arguing even before they got off the stage, with the entire country as their audience.
The director watched the two of them argue in front of the monitor and felt that it would not be good. He directly asked the staff to separate the two of them and let them calm down for a while.
[Donât quarrel, donât quarrel, just take action. Aunties, letâs all take a step back.]
[Sister in front, it was clearly a very serious occasion but I laughed out loud when I saw your comment.]
[Both sides are responsible for the bad performance. However, Iâll side with Little Jiu Jiu this time.]
[So Iâm not the only one who can tell that Qi Yan had brought the pitch up in the performance. Isnât that basically preparing a trap for herself?]
[The point is that Qi Yan couldnât hold the pitch after she brought it up. She couldnât sing it, leading to a bad start and I think Little Jiu Jiu was more or less influenced by her.]
Because Ting Jiu and Qi Yan had a conflict on stage, the Liao sistersâ performance was delayed. The two of them slowly waited backstage.
Liao Jiake was still curious about what was happening outside when the staff beside her told them, âQi Yan and Ting Jiu had a quarrel because of the performance just now.â
Hearing this, Liao Jiake was shocked and subconsciously covered her mouth with her hand.
âReally? They actually started arguing?â
Although she and Liao Jiayan had a little conflict in private, she didnât have the courage to fall out in front of the camera.
However, on second thought, Qi Yan and Ting Jiu were only filming a variety show together. The two of them had nothing to do with each other, so even if they fell out in public it would be considered normal. However, it would be inappropriate for her and Liao Jiayan to make such a scene.
âYes.â The staff kindly reminded them, âJust try your best in the performance later. Donât worry too much about the judgesâ comments.â
They were just trying to dramatize the variety show and these missions were all just a process. Even if somebody came in third, there was no way they would just leave them without any ingredients for dinner.
Setting these rankings was just to motivate the guests to participate. In fact, winning or losing was really not that important.
Liao Jiake smiled. âDonât worry, Yan Yan and I wonât be like that.â
As soon as she finished speaking, her gaze slowly shifted to Liao Jiayan. She looked at her and said, âYan Yan, donât you think so?â
Liao Jiayan looked over indifferently and didnât respond to her.
However, just as they were about to fall into an awkward atmosphere, someone suddenly walked in and informed the sisters, âYou two, get ready. Weâre about to startâ¦â
