Chapter 121: Getting On The Stage!!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Chu Cichen was taken aback.
He asked, “Why did she change clothes?”
“About this.” Lu Cheng said angrily, “Someone’s fan splashed her with water, and the livestream’s viewers were all cheering. This fan is really a fool. She doesn’t even know whom she has offended on behalf of her idol.”
Fans often did things that couldn’t be explained. Take for example the fan who splashed Shen Ruojing with water. This fan had purposely streamed it live to attract attention.
Although she had been caught by the security guards and the police had been called in for this, she was still unrepentant. Instead, she felt proud and claimed that she had avenged her idol.
But it was also because of this that when Shen Ruojing went on stage, not many people doubted the authenticity of this matter. Otherwise, it’d be troublesome to have to explain things.
Sometimes, people like to believe what they saw for themselves and not what other people said.
Chu Cichen then stood up and was heading out with large strides.
Lu Cheng was perplexed and asked, “Bro Chen, where are you going?”
“To the recording studio.”

Jing Zhen had also seen that Weibo post when he was in the resting room.
Someone had gone to his Weibo account and asked him if he had taken advantage of the young lady. He was caught feeding her fruits and acting intimately with her. Was he trying to get into a new love relationship?
Jing Zhen’s reply was very straightforward. [It’s none of your business.]
These words caused him to become trending once more.
However, many people went to his Weibo account to scold him.
Shen Ruojing didn’t say anything nor took any action. Her gaze just had a hint of mockery.
Some of the singers around them had vaguely guessed their relationship and didn’t do anything. Someone even said, “In this day and age, everyone on the Internet is a representative of righteousness. White Feather, don’t pay them any heed.”
Shen Ruojing smiled at this person.
Just then, footsteps came to the door again. Shen Ruojing then looked up and saw Bai Shanshan walking over slowly.
She looked a little shy. But when she saw Shen Ruojing, she called out, “Shen… Teacher White Feather!”
Shen Ruojing was surprised too. “Why have you come?”
Shen Qianhui, who was behind Bai Shanshan, also entered. “It’s like this. I asked Bai Shanshan if she was keen to sign a contract with us, and we just signed the contract earlier. Now, she is a singer of Royal Ocean Entertainment! As Yan Zijing wasn’t eliminated in the previous episode, this means that Miss Bai’s voice wasn’t eliminated, so she’s here to continue to sing.”
Shen Ruojing secretly praised her mother’s decisiveness.
Bai Shanshan’s voice was definitely a contender for becoming a heavenly queen.
The show then started.
As Shen Ruojing volunteered to leave the stage today, she would clarify things at the very end. In addition to the backstage issues that had taken place today, Shen Qianhui didn’t dare to let Shen Ruojing continue to wait at the judging panel. She feared that the agitated fans that had lost their rationality would hurt Shen Ruojing by accident.
Therefore, Shen Ruojing waited backstage.
The first few singers didn’t have any objections to this, and the show progressed smoothly.
Bai Shanshan’s turn was the third from the bottom.
Shen Ruojing could tell that Bai Shanshan was very nervous, so she walked up to Bai Shanshan and said slowly, “Don’t be anxious.”
Bai Shanshan had gotten slimmer compared to yesterday, but the removal of the water retention in the earlier phase was almost over, so she was losing weight slowly, losing only one kilogram. However, this still gave her plenty of confidence.
She then nodded and slowly made her way up on stage as the host introduced her.
She stood on stage.
Upon looking down at the audience, her hand that was holding onto the microphone exerted a bit of strength. She took a deep breath and as the music played, her beautiful and clear voice rang out as well.
Listening to the wonderful melody, it was as if everyone could see Yan Zijing.
However, Bai Shanshan was unlike Yan Zijing. Each time Yan Zijing sang, there seemed to be a mismatched feeling.
Although Bai Shanshan was fat, she gave off a peaceful, quiet feeling, as if she stood aloof from all worldly affairs. Her disposition was a better match with her voice.
Yan Zijing, who was in the audience, narrowed her eyes. She suddenly curled her lips and said something to Dugu Xiao.
However, Dugu Xiao remained expressionless. Hearing her words, he immediately sent someone to get the job done.
Bai Shanshan was fully immersed in the song.
She showed very high standards in stage performances. Before she debuted, the teachers that Yan Zihao had hired for her were all professionals. They had taught her many techniques and trained her voice, form, and even imparted her with stage experience.
However, just as her song was about to reach a climax, she saw that at the very back of the audience, a few people were holding a banner with ‘Fatty! Pig! Scram off!’ written on it.
These few words caused her eyes to constrict and her mind to blank out. She forgot the rest of the lyrics she was supposed to sing.
…
She opened her mouth, feeling at a loss. She had missed the beat and wanted to salvage the situation but didn’t know what to sing. Her gaze was entirely on that banner.
Boom.
A commotion broke out amongst the audience.
What was this situation? Had she forgotten the lyrics?
“Scram!” Someone suddenly took the lead and shouted.
Upon hearing this, Bai Shanshan’s eyes turned red and she abruptly turned to run backstage.
“Eliminate! Eliminate!”
When such a situation occurred on stage, the singer was practically considered eliminated.
As the audience made sounds of disdain, Yan Zijing felt very proud. She then posted on Weibo to mock Bai Shanshan.
Yan Zijing?: [Bai Shanshan’s mentality is weak. She isn’t able to perform on stage at all. Even if someone like her were to debut, who would dare to write songs for her? Wouldn’t they be scared that she’d forget the lyrics in the middle of the song? It’s impossible for someone like her to reach my height!]
Yan Zijing really had plenty of ways to mock others.
On stage, the host quickly helped to fill in for Bai Shanshan. “It does happen often for singers to forget the lyrics. Regrettably, this might be where it ends for Bai Shanshan. Next, let us welcome Dark Shadow!”
Dark Shadow was Jing Zhen.
Jing Zhen went on stage amidst the commotion. The host told him to say some ruthless words, and he was about to say something when someone from the audience suddenly shouted, “Do you really have an affair with White Feather? Is White Feather a third party?”
“…”
Under such a situation, most people would pretend that they hadn’t heard this and ignore it.
The host was about to say something to warm up the atmosphere, but before she could say anything, Jing Zhen said, “It’s none of your business.”
His reply was the exact same as his post on Weibo.
The audience started booing again.
However, Jing Zhen paid them no heed and gestured to the musicians at the side.
The music started playing and he started singing.
However, the audience was in no mood to listen to him singing. All of them were discussing amongst themselves loudly.
“Isn’t Jing Zhen too arrogant? This is his wife’s show!”
“I heard that in the entertainment circle, couples would play around with others respectively. Maybe his wife also has a lot of gigolos!”
“It’s no wonder he can’t become popular!”
“…”
No one listened to the song seriously, but Jing Zhen was very calm. Despite the situation, he still finished the song seriously. After he was done, he bowed.
When the host was planning to get on stage, Jing Zhen suddenly grinned and spoke into the microphone, “Next, let us welcome the last participant, White Feather!”
After saying that, Jing Zhen moved to the edge of the stage and stretched his arm out for Shen Ruojing.
Shen Ruojing raised her brows.
She then looped her arm around Jing Zhen’s and went up the stage.
Their action caused a great uproar amongst the audience!!!
