Chapter 427: Chapter 427: Wearing Slippers onto the Stage
He was eager to break free, but Jiang Shixu, the skinny little guy, sohow had such strength that he held on to him tightly and refused to let go.
“You, you let go of ! I’ve got things to do, you—”
“Tai Fan!!!”
A familiar roar ca from behind, causing Tai Fan to involuntarily shiver.
He tried even harder to pull away from Jiang Shixu.
But it was no use.
The woman behind him took three steps in the space of two and ran over.
“So, Tai Fan, I couldn’t find you anywhere. So this is where you’ve been hiding?!”
The woman approached, staring at Tai Fan with a piercing gaze.
Jiang Shixu curiously looked at her and imdiately felt a sense of familiarity.
—Wasn’t she Wen Feifei, the manager who guided them at the start?
Wen Feifei glared at him sullenly. “Where did you get these clothes from? Trying to sneak off again, huh?!”
Tai Fan had given up struggling by now, his face as morose as a dead fish.
“Feifei, it’s not like that, let explain…”
Wen Feifei closed her eyes and raised her hand, cutting him off mid-sentence.
“Enough, no more talking. They’re almost done in there, hurry up and get inside.”
She then looked at Jiang Shixu.
“I rember you, you’re one of the trainees, right? Why are you out here loitering like Tai Fan? Get inside, now!”
With that, she swung the back door open and pushed both n through it.
Jiang Shixu was utterly confused.
He glanced at Tai Fan next to him and then at the dimly lit waiting area.
“Tai Fan, are we…”
Tai Fan, filled with a heart-wrenching distress, clutched at his chest.
“Don’t say anything else. Don’t even bother repaying ; if I don’t run into you, I’d be free by now!”
“You…”
“Co on, we’re inside already. Find a place to sit.”
“Okay…”
Jiang Shixu obediently followed him.
Onstage, Xi Yang’s group was having their debut performance.
Their song was an original that fused H-pop with rock and rap, igniting the audience to a fever pitch.
As expected, Xi Yang, who perford well in all aspects, received an A.
[Ahhh, Yangyang is so cool! He truly is an all-rounder!]
[Wuwuwu, hubby is too aweso, getting better and better.]
[Can’t wait for the day Yangyang makes his debut!]
The other contestants from Taiqi Entertainnt also did well, mostly rated B.
Soon, the producer announced the next contestant’s na—
“Tai Fan!”
Xi Yang, who had just co off the stage, grew tense and instinctively looked in the direction where Tai Fan was sitting.
Tai Fan stood up with a look of utter resignation.
“It’s okay, no worries, now that I’m here…”
Next to him, Jiang Shixu cautiously raised his fist in an encouraging gesture.
“Go for it, Tai Fan, you can do this.”
Tai Fan: “…”
Never mind, the kid looked so carefree; scolding him was pointless.
With that in mind, he waved his hand. “It’s fine, you don’t need to cheer for . The last thing I need is encouragent.”
He wouldn’t mind being eliminated.
So, he walked onto the stage with an air of nonchalance in his gray work clothes.
The four judges’ expressions changed imdiately.
Tai Fan, however, bowed deeply and unfazedly to them.
“Hello judges, I’ve brought a cover song for you all, hope you like it.”
[Isn’t that Tai Fan, who tried to escape several tis over two days and got caught every ti?]
[Hahaha, how co this guy still hasn’t managed to escape?]
“””Help, why is he still wearing a staff uniform? Is he really going to present himself like this?”””
The stage lights ca on, and so did the music.
Down below, Jiang Shixu looked up with anticipation.
Although he had only recently t Tai Fan, he felt he should be a good guy.
So he was really looking forward to his performance.
But the next second—
“…gotta love till death, it’s not thrilling unless it’s all out…”
The ntor: “…”
Jiang Shixu: “…”
The audience: “…”
“””I was speechless.”””
“””No way, is this guy being serious? Singing this song is one thing, but to sing it like this…”””
“””Hahaha, oh my god, this is so terrible, is he doing this on purpose?”””
Jiang Shixu thought that Tai Fan might indeed be doing it intentionally.
After the song ended, not only did he not show the slightest discomfort, but he also looked towards the four ntors with a relaxed anticipation.
“Please give your scores, ntors!”
The ntors: “…”
The four of them whispered among themselves for a while, and finally revealed their scores.
It was a D.
Tai Fan’s face instantly fell.
A D??
He got a D??
He intentionally sang it so badly, and they still gave him a D???
The music ntor picked up the microphone: “Tai Fan, your singing has a lot of potential for improvent, but the emotion was spot-on, and your voice has a certain plasticity. Keep it up!”
“””My god, he managed to get a D? This kid must be a lucky charm.”””
“””I can’t stop laughing, haha, getting an E ans elimination, and this guy’s road to being ousted is broken again, haha.”””
“””Hahaha, the look on Tai Fan’s face is priceless, hahaha.”””
“””Seeing his constipated face oddly cheers up, isn’t this just what I look like when forced to work?”””
Tai Fan was about to explode, but thankfully Wen Feifei reacted quickly and pushed the producer onto the stage to shift the focus.
“Thank you, Tai Fan, for your performance. Now, let’s welco the next participant—”
Tai Fan: “…”
Why was leaving proving to be so difficult?!
“From Qiyin, the solo trainee Shiguang!”
Tai Fan’s eyes lit up.
It was the crier he had saved.
Maybe he should stay to watch his performance before leaving?
Looking at Shiguang’s teary and timid deanor, he probably wasn’t much better than him. He could mock him later to soothe his own frustrations!
The producer called out again when no one appeared on stage—
“Please welco the solo trainee Shiguang from Qiyin!”
Below stage, Liu Qian looked nervously at Xi Yang, “Captain, is that kid still on the balcony?”
Xi Yang snorted coldly, “So what if he is? It’s none of our business.”
He had locked the balcony door before leaving; there was no way Shiguang could get out.
It was for the best, really. It’s easy to attract bad publicity when soone with no talent gets this much attention right from the start.
However, as the producer was about to call out a third ti, a timid voice ca from behind him.
“I-I’m here…”
Xi Yang’s face changed drastically, and he turned around in shock.
He actually got out!!!
Jiang Shixu clutched at the hem of his clothes and cautiously stepped onto the stage.
“””Ah, my husband has finally appeared!”””
“””Sob sob, watching Shiguang step onto such a big stage from just over a thousand fans, it hasn’t been easy.”””
“””But then again, why didn’t he get styled, and why is he wearing slippers!”””
“””Do good-looking people just get to do whatever they want?”””
“””Wow, is he planning to do the sa as Tai Fan?”””
