Watching Chu Tian's mouth twitch with laughter, Wei Liangxiao leaned over and whispered,
"Aren't you afraid things will go south? That's your girlfriend. If she loses face, it will be super embarrassing, right?"
Chu Tian shook his head, his face full of pride, and said,
"That's because you don't know her well. She can handle it, trust ."
Wei Liangxiao might not know, but having been with Xu Qingqiu for so long, Chu Tian knew her better than many others.
Contrary to her usual silence and her habit of never criticizing others directly or expressing her opinions on matters, she appeared to be a straightforward and naive person, likely even a bit simple and innocent-looking to others.
However, Chu Tian knew that Xu Qingqiu was smart and shrewd. Otherwise, she wouldn't have ventured out at 16 and made it this far, bit by bit.
It was simply her nature, perhaps shaped by her experiences, that she preferred to keep things to herself and rarely shared her views openly. However, this didn't an she didn't understand.
Not only that, Xu Qingqiu had a strong ability to adapt in many situations.
Don't forget, she was a professional Singer. Whether at comrcial performances or recording programs, she encountered all sorts of unexpected situations. If she hadn't been able to handle these contingencies, she would have stumbled countless tis over the years.
Only a keen person would understand that ups and downs are not skill. It's mundane to fluctuate, but those who stay consistently stable and continue to rise truly need so wisdom.
Wei Liangxiao didn't quite grasp the aning, but what he wanted to say wasn't just about that.
"It's not your girlfriend I'm worried about, but what if soone else gets thrown off rhythm and suddenly freezes up?"
Just as they were talking, on stage, after hesitating for a few seconds, Xu Li was the first to react.
"OH! Qingqiu! That's not playing fair, I turned first!"
Her voice also made the other two snap to it. They were all veterans and instantly knew what to do next, so they each put on an angry face and started condemning Xu Qingqiu.
This was exactly what Chu Tian needed: from bewildernt to exasperated fury, a transition of emotions not easily perford by non-professionals, but experience made it different.
Now, they were all genuinely reacting, none faking it.
Variety shows thrive on conflict and suspense. So rely on manufacturing romantic pairings (CPs), while others focus on interpersonal conflicts and feuds between artists, or stir up controversial topics. For this show, however, Chu Tian opted for a scripted approach, using minor conflicts to enhance its entertainnt value.
"Exactly, Qingqiu, having known you for so long, how did I never realize you could be like this? How could you do this?"
Zheng Qiuming and Xu Qingqiu were old acquaintances, so although he sounded sowhat severe, everyone could tell his tone carried a hint of familiarity.
"Sorry, folks, I'm just saying. Besides, it's still up to the student to choose, right? I just wanted to ntion, I have 48 concerts this year. If you're interested, you can pick !"
The last sentence was directed at the students on stage, but since they had never encountered such a situation, they could only stand there awkwardly smiling, sowhat at a loss.
Seeing her start again, Xu Li grew even more anxious!
Although it was scripted, which student chose which ntor wasn't predetermined. This part genuinely required the ntors to compete for the students.
She really liked the student on stage, or she wouldn't have turned first. Then out of nowhere, Xu Qingqiu, ignoring all protocols, planned to intercept.
"AH! You had to ntion it, didn't you? No way, you can't talk anymore. I turned first. Listen to , you know who I am, right? Although I don't have a concert this year, I'm about to release an album soon. There's a song that I think we could collaborate on, and I feel your voice would suit my style. If you join my team, I can guide you better!"
Xu Li's words burst out like a machine gun, a string of statents rolled out, even the topics she had prepared beforehand forgotten.
By then, the student on stage had also started to react and quickly grabbed the microphone, about to say sothing. But how could they be allowed to speak?
Don't forget, both Xu Qingqiu and Xu Li had thrown out their bait, but Zheng Qiuming and Sun Guoxiang hadn't even started talking yet.
It was like a ga of Werewolf: everyone else had been analyzing for ages, while they remained silent. Wasn't that just blatantly slacking?
They didn't want to lay low. They wanted this student, too.
After all, everyone knew that the students featured in the first episode were always the top-tier ones. If not now, when? Wait for the later stages to sift through?
However, just as Xu Qingqiu scored the first point and Xu Li promptly followed, Zheng Qiuming, unwilling to be outdone, leaned into the microphone to speak, but had to choke back his words as he suddenly saw a huge black mouse dash out.
Previously, Xu Li, Zheng Qiuming, and even the student had all, in their own way, engaged with Xu Qingqiu's unexpected play, creating so entertaining monts for the show. Sun Guoxiang, the only one who was perhaps less familiar or hadn't found the right opportunity, had thus remained silent throughout.
Being naturally more impulsive and open, and seeing no chance to interject, he simply gave up trying to speak. Instead, he got up from his chair and ran towards the stage.
"You don't have to listen to them; just go with what you think. Choosing a ntor is crucial. You can't let others influence you. You have to choose the one most suitable for you. For example, what do you think of ?"
