Lang Qi and Xiao Tian stood backstage, looking nervously at the people on stage.
Xiao Tian asked in a low voice, âWhat kind of medicine did you give her just now?â
âWhat else could it be? Itâs what I usually take when Iâm sleepy during filming.â
Xiao Tian sighed. âIt wonât have bad side effects on the body, right?â
âI donât know. I usually just take one, but the Veiled Queen took three at onceâ¦â
With that said, Xiao Tian became even more worried.
Would the stimulant pills be effective in counteracting the effects for someone who had taken sleeping pills? No one had ever tried it before, so they couldnât be sure.
There was warm applause outside.
Two beams of stage lights shone down upon the two figures standing on the stage.
Bai Rongâs face was filled with a dazzling smile as if victory was in her hands.
Meanwhile, the Veiled Queen standing to the side had her head lowered, without moving at all.
The people in the audience could not see the Veiled Queenâs expression. They were subconsciously attracted to the sweet and beautiful Bai Rong.
The audience in the live broadcast room also saw the close-up footage of Bai Rong.
Immediately, the bullet screen was filled with people who were on their knees. âGoddess Baiâs beauty is incredible!â
âWith such good looks, it would be a pity not to become an actress.â
âWhen I watch Goddess Baiâs music video, I feel that itâs a visual enjoyment.â
âHearing is also enjoyable, right? Goddess Baiâs looks and talent are both very high.â
âIâm a little disappointed with the Veiled Queen. She doesnât have any stage presence at all! Sheâs not even moving. Is she sleeping?â
âI feel the same way. After all, sheâs just a stand-in who actually dares to stand on the same stage as the main character. Sheâs just waiting to be eliminated.â
Bai Rongâs fans were already prepared for the battle. When the live broadcast had begun, all the members of the Baiyin Pavilion fan club had poured into the live broadcast room together, contributing to the flow of the entire live broadcast room.
That feeling of being on standby for battle occupied most of the bullet screen.
At the same time, Mu Chen and Shi Mo were also watching the live broadcast.
As the music slowly played, Bai Rong was the first to open her mouth.
It was clear from the moment she opened her mouth that there was nothing special about her voice. It did not sound much different from something you would hear at an ordinary karaoke lounge. Fortunately for her, after a long period of practice, she could at least keep in the rhythm with the music.
Bai Rong was not worried about her performance at all. She continued to observe Fang Moâer as she sang.
Seeing that she was not moving at all, the smile on her face grew wider and she sang even sweeter.
She knew that Fang Moâer was just trying to hold on. Soon, she would make a complete fool of herself.
Bai Rongâs part in the song came to an end, so she turned an elegant gaze at Fang Moâer.
In the next second, Bai Rongâs smile froze because Fang Moâer smoothly followed up immediately after her.
The venue, which had been silent just a moment ago, was now shocked by Fang Moâerâs ethereal voice.
Many people gasped.
Fang Moâer closed her eyes as if she was completely immersed in the song. She had only sung a few lines, yet she was already able to reach peopleâs souls and cause them to tremble.
On the bullet screen in the live broadcast room, the members of the Baiyin Pavilion fan club were all silent.
They felt the fear of their own members being instantly shot down.
Bai Rong held the microphone so tightly that the veins on her hand were popping out. It was impossible. Fang Moâer was already so sleepy. How was it possible that she could still sing so well?
Suddenly, Fang Moâer stopped singing. Instead, she said, âEveryone, sing together!â
Then, she pointed the microphone towards the audience, without moving.
The sound of a chorus of fans could be heard from below the stage.
Bai Rong was stunned for a moment before she glared at Fang Moâer.
She felt that Fang Moâer had to be slacking off because she could no longer sing.
It was true that Fang Moâer was slacking off. A wave of sleepiness had just struck her, which prevented her from continuing to sing. Thus, she had to turn the microphone to the audience.
That was probably because Lang Qiâs medicine had not fully taken effect yet and she was still very sleepy.
Hence, she could only stall for time and make some adjustments.
Bai Rong seemed to see some hope again. She felt that Fang Moâer was definitely not going to make it.
After the chorus ended, it was then Bai Rongâs turn to sing the next line.
Bai Rong followed Fang Moâerâs example and sang a few lines before turning the microphone over to the audience as well.
Her thought process was very simple. Since she was singing a duet, Fang Moâer could not possibly continue using this routine, right? So, she might as well just let the audience finish the singing.
Therefore, after Bai Rong had finished the four lines of lyrics, she looked at Fang Moâer with interest, waiting to watch a good show.
Fang Moâer felt herself going through the struggle again. The feelings of drowsiness and excitement in her body were fighting with each other.
Finally, the excitement temporarily gained the upper hand.
It was at this moment that her mind became clear again, and she smoothly caught the next line of lyrics.
Once again, her heartfelt voice resonated throughout the entire venue.
Instantly, the audience quietly listened, too afraid of missing out on even one line of lyrics. Their eyes were completely mesmerized by the sight before them.
Bai Rong was flustered.
Why was Fang Moâer still able to sing? Could it be that the sleeping pills had not worked?
Every time Fang Moâer opened her mouth, there was a strong contrast with Bai Rongâs singing.
Everyone could clearly feel that Bai Rongâs voice was not beautiful at all. She sounded just like a singing robot without any emotions.
The Veiled Queen was the one who was singing with her soul.
