Chapter 63: eting a Big Boss, Shocked the Crowd
Translator: _Min_
Mu Ye hesitated for a mont, “Are you suggesting..
Lu Yan casually nodded, “A minor injury would suffice.”
In the cutthroat world of Tianle dia, underhanded tactics were inherited from the top down.
After all, to climb the ladder in the entertainnt industry, one had to resort to unscrupulous ans.
Lu Yan saw nothing wrong with what he was doing.
“Great idea, Brother Yan,” Mu Ye’s eyes brightened, but then he hesitated.
“What if we get caught…’
Lu Yan found the notion amusing, “As long as Xie Yu and his team don’t find out, who do you think will side with them in the production team right now?”
Mu Ye felt reassured and imdiately followed the staff, intending to find so nails and blades.
Lu Yan retraced his steps and happened to run into Xie Yu and Xu Xiyun coming back from the cafeteria.
“What a coincidence, Xie Yu,” Lu Yan’s face remained unchanged, even breaking into a smile, “The competition is tomorrow. Are you all prepared? What song are you planning to choose? I think ‘Mountain Ghost Ballad’ is pretty good.”
Xie Yu walked straight past him, not even sparing him a glance.
Xu Xiyun, unfazed due to his carefree nature, also ignored Lu Yan.
He casually caught up with Xie Yu, “Brother Xie, Teacher Si said she’ll co over again tomorrow at noon, and it seems like she’s bringing a friend or sothing.”
Xie Yu responded absentmindedly, still not giving Lu Yan a second look.
The door to Dance Room 2 slamd shut behind them.
Lu Yan clenched his fists, his expression murky.
What he despised the most was Xie Yu’s nonchalant deanor, as if nothing in the world mattered to him.
And then there was Si Fuqing, recklessly arrogant.
Now that Xie Yu and Si Fuqing had joined forces, they had successfully beco the most annoying people in his eyes.
Lu Yan walked into the restroom and found a stall. He answered a call from Tianle dia, “Hello? It’s . You want to make Si Fuqing look bad during tomorrow’s live broadcast?”
The voice on the other end spoke a few more sentences.
Lu Yan nodded, “Alright, I understand. I’ll leave this matter to Mu Ye. He’s been harboring a grudge against Si Fuqing for a while now; he’s the perfect candidate.”
Ending the call, he exhaled deeply, feeling the Imots in his chest untangle.
It seed that both Si Fuqing and Xie Yu were destined to beco sacrifices on the altar of ‘Youth With You,’ paving the way for his ascent.
Back at the Villa.
Yu Tang returned ho around seven o’clock.
Upon seeing Si Fuqing in the living room, her eyes lit up. She dashed over and enthusiastically hugged her, “Qingqing. ”
Si Fuqing thought to herself, it was a good thing she’d been working out since her revival. Otherwise, this frail body of hers would have shattered under Yu Tang’s exuberant embrace.
Before she could help Yu Tang up, a calm voice, imbued with authority, resonated in the room.
“Get up.”
Yu Tang shuddered and quickly stood to attention.
She saluted and spoke loudly, “Reporting to Uncle Nine, I was just testing how huggable Qingqing is. She passed the test! What are your instructions?”
Si Fuqing, who had successfully resisted being knocked over by Yu Tang, nearly stumbled over these words.
A hand abruptly grasped her wrist, steadying her before letting go.
Si Fuqing turned her head to et the young man’s deep, phoenix-like eyes. Yu Xiheng’s expression remained undisturbed, his words as succinct as ever,
“Be careful.’
“I’m fine,” Si Fuqing replied, earnest in her tone. “My loyalty to you, Boss, is as transparent as day and night. I don’t have any ill-intentions”
Her ill-intentions was primarily towards money.
She was genuinely an innocent darling.
Yu Xiheng’s eyebrow lifted slightly. He then turned to Yu Tang, his tone revealing neither pleasure nor displeasure, “No chocolate for a month.” Yu Tang deflated instantly.
She scratched her head. Had she still not mastered the art of flattery? She really needed to go back and study.
Feng San finally dared to erge from the kitchen. He cleared his throat,
“Brother Nine, Miss Yu Tang, it’s getting late. I’ll escort Miss Si ho.”
Yu Xiheng humd in acknowledgnt, “Go ahead.”
Tearfully, Yu Tang said her goodbyes, “Qingqing, you must co to see often.”
Only Qingqing could rescue her from her Uncle Nine’s iron grip. Si Fuqing bent down, smiled, and caressed her face, “Of course.”
Gathering her dical kit, she left.
Yu Tang held her face, “I’ve been ‘turned’ by Qingqing.” Feng San:
How could his Brother Nine have such an eccentric niece?
The next day.
Si Fuqing went to Lin’s First Hospital.
On the way, she checked the tracking number Ji Xingzhi had sent her.
The package would arrive in Lin tomorrow.
She pondered.
Her luck had been siphoned by the Zuo family, benefitting everyone around them.
Every individual had absorbed so of her luck.
When the first strand of her luck returned, she had already selected her first target.
In the hospital room, Mu Qingng sat up as soon as she saw the young woman enter.
“You’re here,” she said, delighted. “I was just telling the nurse yesterday that I didn’t know if you would co today. And here you are.”
“It seems we’re quite in sync, Auntie Mu,” Si Fuqing nodded and smiled. “I’ve been busy with work, so I’m a bit late.”
“You’re on that TV show, right?” Mu Qingng held her hand, concerned, “You must take care of yourself.”
“I’m still young, ” Si Fuqing responded, discreetly checking Mu Qingng’s pulse. “What about you? You’ve had this heart condition for over twenty years, haven’t you?”
“Yes,” Mu Qingng sighed softly, “Who would’ve thought that I’d acquire so many ailnts while still young? I can’t live peacefully even before getting old.’
Si Fuqing released her hand, her brow slightly furrowed.
Mu Qingng smiled, “Your show is airing today, right? ‘Youth With You’? I’ll be watching.”
Si Fuqing blinked, ‘Would Auntie Mu like to watch it live? Today’s mainly athletic competitions, there’re not too many performances, so it won’t be too stimulating for your heart.”
“Really?” Mu Qingng sounded thrilled. “Will they let in?”
“No problem,” Si Fuqing assured her. “It’s a live broadcast today, and I have audience tickets. You can go in.”
“Wonderful,” Mu Qingng was elated, “I’m almost fully recovered anyway.
Let’s go there later.”
As they were talking, a knock sounded at the door to the hospital room.
It was a caregiver.
“Ma’am, Mrs. Chen is here to…
Mu Qingng cut her off, her tone turning icy, “Tell her I’ve been discharged and she need not concern herself with my affairs any longer.”
The caregiver nodded and left to relay the ssage.
Noon.
The production team for “Youth With You” had rented Lin’s open-air stadium specifically for this episode.
As it was their first live broadcast, the team was particularly cautious.
The show started at 2 pm, but fans were allowed entry from noon.
The ntors were all on high alert.
Except Si Fuqing was missing once again.
“She’s absent again? Took another leave?” Li Jingchen slamd his pen onto the table, his eyebrows arching in disdain, “Why does she even bother showing up? She might as well quit the show. Does she think she owns the place? I’ve never seen anyone as unprofessional as her!”
“Teacher Li, please calm down,” Lin Qingyan spoke softly, “Teacher Si has always been known for taking leaves. Besides, she’s had a lot on her plate recently; it’s only normal for her to rest.”
“Enough, Teacher Lin, no need to defend her,” Li Jingchen grew even more impatient, “I know exactly the kind of person she is; she’s nothing but ungrateful.”
Lin Qingyan just smiled and refrained from speaking further.
Li Jingchen glanced at the ti, “Let’s go downstairs. We need to distribute the uniforms to the contestants.”
Lin Qingyan casually ntioned, “I heard that Teacher Yuan will be returning from abroad for the next performance. I’m really looking forward to it.”
Besides the four ntors on “Youth With You,” there was also a female pop icon involved in the show, who acted as the starter of the boy group.
She was extrely busy and had been abroad for the past two weeks, appearing only in the first episode.
Li Jingchen nodded, “That should be the case.” The three ntors headed downstairs.
At the entrance, Si Fuqing arrived with Mu Qingng.
Lin Qingyan, sharp-eyed as she was, spotted them instantly.
“Teacher Si, you can’t bring outsiders in without the production team’s permission, can you?” She raised her voice in astonishnt, “What’s the aning of this?”
Li Jingchen furrowed his brow and scolded, “You’re late, and you don’t even follow rules. What are you trying to pull off? If you can’t handle being a ntor, then quit!”
Hearing this, Mu Qingng turned to Si Fuqing, ‘Miss Si, is my being here causing you trouble? Maybe I should—”
Si Fuqing interrupted her, lifting her eyes slightly, “No trouble. You can go in.” As Mu Qingng turned her head, her face ca into full view.
Li Jingchen, who had been about to continue his scolding, suddenly paused, looking sowhat astonished, “Senior Mu?!”
