After Being an Improper Control Group as an Abandoned Wealthy Wife, She Effortlessly Came Out on Top

Chapter 138: Arguing

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Their team encountered such a situation at the beginning of their performance. If it was an ordinary rookie, they would be more easily affected.

However, Meng Chuyuan did not interrupt the stage performance. She was able to respond calmly. This was indeed unexpected.

If the judges had not mentioned this mistake, Lu Jinsen and the audience in the live-stream might not have known about this.

[My expression is the same as Young Master’s. I’m really dumbfounded. I don’t know what happened at all.]

[That’s right, that’s right. Please replay it and see if there are any cameras that capture what happened just now.]

[I have to say that the judges’ skills can’t be underestimated. They even saw such a small mistake. Of course, Sister Meng’s reaction was also very good. I love it.]

[I thought that the stop in the middle just now was planned. I didn’t expect that her clothes would be stepped on. However, this is too detailed. I didn’t even notice that Lu Jinsen was on stage with her.]

After the judges below the stage gave their comments, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen came down from the center of the stage and stood in a quiet corner to watch the performances of the other groups.

He did not dare to ask when the judges were commenting just now, but now that he was off the stage, he finally could not help but ask Meng Chuyuan, “Did I step on your clothes?”

“Look at this shoe print.” Meng Chuyuan exposed the hem of her dress and showed it to him.

Seeing that there was really a dirty shoe print on her clothes, Lu Jinsen blinked slightly and said in embarrassment, “Sorry, it’s my fault.”

The next group to appear was Ting Jiu’s group. When the two of them looked at each other in the beginning, it was somewhat immersive. However, when it came to the part where they had to sing, Qi Yan’s voice broke the moment she started singing.

When she performed, she had raised the pitch for the song and she couldn’t sing the second line. When it was Ting Jiu’s turn, he did not transition from one pitch to another very well and he basically flopped.

Initially, the two characters were supposed to have a lot of interactions with each other in this opera. When they were learning it backstage, they had also been taught their movements and expressions. However, this part was not reflected at all towards the end of their performance and it felt like they were watching a solo show.

The two of them bit the bullet and continued singing. The expressions of the judges below the stage were clearly not good. They pretended to be calm and listened to them sing the song to the end.

After the performance ended, the judges below the stage gave way to each other modestly. The microphones were passed around, and it was obvious that they did not want to be the first to comment.

[I’m really speechless, guys. Why is this group so funny? Hahahaha, I think Qi Zhen doesn’t have to come back anymore. Qi Yan and Little Jiu Jiu’s group has a variety sense.]

[Actually, after the entire performance, it’s not difficult to realize that both of them have tried their best, but they feel very stiff performing on the same stage together.]

[Perhaps Qi Yan was too eager for quick success and wanted to show off too much, so she used too much strength.]

[I can tell that Little Jiu Jiu really wanted to accommodate her, but he can’t beat Miss Qi’s desire to show off.]

[The judges’ expressions seem to be saying something. Can you be more serious?!]

Later on, the judges’ overall evaluation was that their performance was chaotic. The two of them did not express their emotions properly and were not serious enough about the stage.

Qi Yan listened to the judges’ speech expressionlessly. She did not have any reaction towards their feedback on areas of improvement.

She wasn’t going to sing it a second time anyway. Their suggestions didn’t matter to her at all.

Compared to Qi Yan’s reaction, Ting Jiu was a little disappointed.

He studied the song seriously and practiced it many times when he was waiting backstage. He did not expect that he would still sing badly after going on stage.

“Are you messing with me on purpose? You know I want to eat hotpot, is that why you don’t want to win?”

They had clearly performed quite well during the last rehearsal. They had sung well and had the basics of their interactions down.

Why was the result not so good when it came to the real performance?

Ting Jiu felt that something must have happened to Qi Yan.

When Qi Yan heard this, she retorted bluntly, “Please, if I don’t want to win, I won’t go on stage, okay? Do you think I want to sing like that?”

She felt that it was embarrassing to sing like this.

When she was practicing backstage, she was also learning seriously. However, she did not have any musical talent to begin with. Being able to sing all the lyrics was already her greatest challenge.

Ting Jiu: “Then would you dare to review the performance with me? Who was the one who raised the pitch and led me astray just now?”

“You sang like a mosquito just now, and you still have the cheek to talk to me about reviewing the performance?”

The two of them were already arguing even before they got off the stage, with the entire country as their audience.

The director watched the two of them argue in front of the monitor and felt that it would not be good. He directly asked the staff to separate the two of them and let them calm down for a while.

[Don’t quarrel, don’t quarrel, just take action. Aunties, let’s all take a step back.]

[Sister in front, it was clearly a very serious occasion but I laughed out loud when I saw your comment.]

[Both sides are responsible for the bad performance. However, I’ll side with Little Jiu Jiu this time.]

[So I’m not the only one who can tell that Qi Yan had brought the pitch up in the performance. Isn’t that basically preparing a trap for herself?]

[The point is that Qi Yan couldn’t hold the pitch after she brought it up. She couldn’t sing it, leading to a bad start and I think Little Jiu Jiu was more or less influenced by her.]

Because Ting Jiu and Qi Yan had a conflict on stage, the Liao sisters’ performance was delayed. The two of them slowly waited backstage.

Liao Jiake was still curious about what was happening outside when the staff beside her told them, “Qi Yan and Ting Jiu had a quarrel because of the performance just now.”

Hearing this, Liao Jiake was shocked and subconsciously covered her mouth with her hand.

“Really? They actually started arguing?”

Although she and Liao Jiayan had a little conflict in private, she didn’t have the courage to fall out in front of the camera.

However, on second thought, Qi Yan and Ting Jiu were only filming a variety show together. The two of them had nothing to do with each other, so even if they fell out in public it would be considered normal. However, it would be inappropriate for her and Liao Jiayan to make such a scene.

“Yes.” The staff kindly reminded them, “Just try your best in the performance later. Don’t worry too much about the judges’ comments.”

They were just trying to dramatize the variety show and these missions were all just a process. Even if somebody came in third, there was no way they would just leave them without any ingredients for dinner.

Setting these rankings was just to motivate the guests to participate. In fact, winning or losing was really not that important.

Liao Jiake smiled. “Don’t worry, Yan Yan and I won’t be like that.”

As soon as she finished speaking, her gaze slowly shifted to Liao Jiayan. She looked at her and said, “Yan Yan, don’t you think so?”

Liao Jiayan looked over indifferently and didn’t respond to her.

However, just as they were about to fall into an awkward atmosphere, someone suddenly walked in and informed the sisters, “You two, get ready. We’re about to start…”
