Chapter 99 - 99: You’re Super Awesome

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Seeing that Xia Jinmeng’s expression had changed, her fans started to comfort her again.

[Mengmeng, don’t be sad. Try harder next time.]

[Mengmeng is very strong. It’s just that her injury has affected her performance. She will definitely perform better next time.]

[All the best, Mengmeng. You’re already doing very well.]

Some of the audience in the live broadcast room were fans of the other members, while the other portion was the free-flowing audience that was attracted by the production crew thanks to Lin Shanchu’s performance.

The free-flowing audience didn’t do things such as becoming fans of other celebrities.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

As soon as they saw Xia Jinmeng’s expression change, they started mocking her immediately.

[The audience has sharp eyes.]

[Is it that difficult to admit that Boss Yun is the best?]

[Xia Jinmeng’s expression changed so quickly that it’s so funny!]

[The fans in the comment section are starting to boast about Xia Jinmeng’s strength again. During the period between the initial stage assessment all the way to the first public showdown, when had she ever demonstrated her strength?]

[You guys don’t understand. She’s the type that dotes on her fans. Only her fans know how strong she is.]

[Hahahaha! I’m going to die from laughter! Seriously!]

The actual audience group was way bigger than Xia Jinmeng’s group of fans. Soon, Xia Jinmeng’s fans’ comments were lost in the comment section.

The moment Yun Wu returned backstage, she slid up next to Lin Shanchu.

“Shanshan, am I awesome?”

The front desk staff happened to be announcing the next group of members who were about to go on stage. The camera was cut to the scene behind the stage at that moment, so it happened to capture Lin Shanchu and Yun Wu.

Of course, the camera also perfectly recorded the moment when Yun Wu asked Lin Shanchu if she was awesome while tilting her head.

The comment section was filled with spam comments.

[Shanshan, am I awesome?] filled the entire screen.

[It’s true that Boss Yun is only sweet and cuddly in front of Lin Shanchu.]

[She’s super cute!]

[Tell her she’s awesome, Lin Shanchu!]

[LinYun couple, charge!]

Under the leadership of the unscrupulous director for viewership ratings, the staff of the production crew was all experts in reading the room.

They all knew what the audience wanted to see.

While the cameraman was recording the next group of members performing on stage, he didn’t forget to take a three-second shot of Lin Shanchu and Yun wu.

Lin Shanchu smiled while looking at Yun Wu. ‘You’re super awesome.”

Yun Wu hugged Lin Shanchu’s arm and rubbed against her happily. Then, she remembered that the latter had to perform on stage later, so she quickly helped her to tidy up.

The commenters went ballistic.

[They’re killing me!]

[She sounds so doting! Ahhh! I’m dead!]

[Please, I’m begging you! Sacrifice me so that they can celebrate their relationship!]

The next group of members had already gone on stage, so the camera cut over to their stage.

Yun Wu then lowered her voice to speak to Lin Shanchu. “Why is Tang Qidai here as a guest of honor?” “She’s here to see me.” Lin Shanchu smiled.

“Huh?”

When Tang Qidai came to visit Lin Shanchu at the production crew, Lin Shanchu’s attitude toward her was enough to show that they were not good friends at all.

Therefore, Tang Qidai would not be so kind to visit Lin Shanchu.

Lin Shanchu continued, “She wants to watch me fail before stomping on me.” Yun Wu frowned before harrumphing coldly. “I think she’s here to dig her own grave!”

Lin Shanchu put her index finger to her lips and gestured for Yun Wu to keep quiet. It was to indicate that there was a camera positioned right next to them and that Yun Wu must mind her words.

Yun Wu pursed her lips and did not say anything else.

In the following performances, other than the two singing groups, the other groups didn’t fail in their performances at all.

However, seeing as Yun Wu the expert had already performed first, the members that came after her couldn’t surpass her in terms of votes.

Hence, Xia Jinmeng was still in the top three when it came to the individual member votes.

However, Xia Jinmeng had always thought highly of herself and had always looked up to the first place. She could not accept this ranking at all. Her expression was cold the entire time, and no one dared to provoke her.

Finally, there were only two groups left.

Many of the audience members were here for “Death of the Universe”. By then, they were already getting impatient.

[It’s Lin Shanchu’s group’s turn now, right?]

[Did Lin Shanchu withdraw from the competition?]

[The production crew deliberately arranged for Lin Shanchu to be at the back just to bait us!]

[I don’t want to be baited, but Lin Shanchu’s “Death of the Universe” performance is too enticing…]

Under everyone’s anticipation, the host announced the next performance.

“Let’s welcome the group members who’ll be performing ‘I Like You the Most’ with a round of applause…”

“I Like You the Most” was a cheerful and healing love song that had a sweet melody.

It was the song that An Youyun had chosen.

It was also her usual style.

The commenters were happy.

[Our sweet An’an is finally performing!]

[Why is it this style again? Is An Youyun only capable of performing this style? I’m starting to get sick of it.]

[If you’re tired of watching, you can always leave! Who forced you to stay here and watch anyway?]

[Wow, you fans sure are hard-headed! Are you the ones who sponsored this show?]

An Youyun had always adopted the sweet persona.

Naturally, she could perfectly handle such a cute and fluffy style of music. Therefore, she was very confident on the stage and was able to perform normally, which made the performance perfect.

After the performance ended, there were even audience members who cheered for An Youyun.

Compared to Xia Jinmeng, An Youyun was more popular among the neutral audience.

After the voting ended, it was the mentors’ turn to evaluate.

Xu An, who had always been gentle, praised and encouraged every member.

As for his comment for An Youyun, who took up the central position, he only gave a simple comment .”Both your persona and the song are very sweet, but there’s still room for improvement in your singing. All the best!”

He passed the microphone to Bai Yu.

The director’s pleading voice came through the earpiece. “Mr. Bai, please give a few more comments. Also, please use gentler words.”

“I Like You the Most” was a song that focused more on the singer’s vocals.

Xu An was a professional singer, but he didn’t comment much.

The director also knew the reason. It was because An Youyun’s style was too monotonous, so there was nothing much to comment on.

However, the production crew hoped that the mentors would be gentler to the members since it was only the first public showdown.

Bai Yu was known for his sharp tongue, so the production crew reminded him to be gentler.

Bai Yu held the microphone in his hand as a hint of hesitation flashed across his face. His gaze swept across the members on the stage. In the end, he only slowly said two words, “Good luck.”

The director’s crew was speechless.

Bai Yu probably only heard the word “gentle”.

Then, he handed the microphone to Qin Shuya.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to comment on it, but these members, including An Youyun, had all followed the same style from the initial stage assessment all the way to the first public showdown.

He had said what needed to be said and praised what needed to be praised.

If he was asked to give a few more comments, he’d start criticizing the members instead.

However, Bai Yu was still someone who followed the basic principles. The words “good luck” was the biggest compromise he could make with the production crew as long as he didn’t go against his heart

Qin Shuya also heard the production crew’s request for her to make more comments through her earpiece.

As a female mentor, she was more meticulous and could come up with more compliments on the fly.

She praised the members for their beautiful clothing and suitable makeup.

In the end, she concluded, “I have high hopes for you, An Youyun.” The commenters were debating Qin Shuya’s comments.

[Ms. Qin likes An’an a lot! She keeps praising her!]

[Can you pay more attention to what Ms. Qin said? All she did was compliment An Youyun’s cute looks, beautiful costumes, and suitable makeup.. Did she compliment her singing and dancing?]
