Chapter 610: I Don’t Know!
The female fan who had rushed on stage was already under control, and the commotion here had also attracted attention. The director frowned and looked at the unreasonable female fan. He immediately got the security officer to bring her down and control her while saying, “Let’s call the police first. We’ll talk when the police arrive.”
She then turned to look at Xu Xinyao. “Adjust your mental state and continue!”
Xu Xinyao finally regained her rationality.
This was the stage.
Hence, she could not panic. She took a deep breath and nodded.
After Xu Xinyao went on stage, she was still a little flustered. After all, she had taken credit for what someone else had done and was most afraid of being discovered. She gulped and started performing.
The grand finals stage was for everyone to sing a song and dance. The 24 people would take turns to perform the rest of the events while the rest go backstage to rest.
However, Xu Xinyao’s experience had affected her mood.
Usually, she had good singing skills, but when she opened her mouth, her voice was actually trembling! It broke the sound barrier!
When Xu Xinyao realized that she had broken her voice, she became even more flustered. This resulted in her singing not being at her usual level.
Everyone realized this!
The fans below started exchanging glances and whispering to each other.
She did not know if it was a psychological effect, but Xu Xinyao felt that the people below were looking at her differently. They seemed to be saying that she was a liar.
She tried her best to stabilize herself.
When it was her turn to dance, she finally calmed down.
Qin Shuang was on the other side of the stage and was completely unaware of what was happening here.
Before she went on stage, she had only taken Xue Xi’s phone and logged into her Weibo to clarify that she was not Xu Xinyao. There was no time for anything else.
Moreover, she did not want to expose her identity and felt that it would bring trouble to her idol. She would rather let those people scold Early for using his popularity.
Hence, she did not know what happened next.
She also did not know that her little alias had been revealed.
Today was her last performance in the training camp, and it was also the result of the past three months. She sang a high-note song happily and danced a stunning dance that blew up the venue. She successfully got off the stage and went backstage to rest and change.
After getting off the stage, she heaved a sigh of relief. When she was walking backstage, she suddenly heard a voice beside her. “You guys can’t do this to me. I’m just protecting my rights! She cheated me first! My Weibo name is ‘Cold as the wind’!”
Upon hearing this name, Qin Shuang paused.
Empress?
Isn’t she Cen Bai’s fan as well as an administrator that goes way back?
Just like Doudou, “Cold as the wind” had always followed Qin Shuang to manage Cen Bai’s fan club. Some of them knew Cen Bai even earlier than Qin Shuang.
All these years, everyone had been contacting each other on Weibo. Almost every day, when they were doing ranking missions, they would chat in the group.
Qin Shuang paid for Cen Bai’s offline activities, but the ones doing the work had always been Doudou and Cold as the wind.
While her family background was average, her love for Cen Bai was not small at all. Although she did not pay much, she did contribute a lot.
Two years ago, after a palace drama was aired, everyone affectionately called her “Empress.”
But why was she backstage? And from the looks of it, she was actually stopped by the security guards.
Could it be related to Cen Bai?
Putting aside the fact that this matter concerned Cen Bai, Qin Shuang had to interfere. She had to look after Empress because she could be considered a long-time friend.
Qin Shuang frowned and did not go backstage. She went over first.
She always put on makeup and changed her clothes quickly anyway. She could still make it after lingering here for a while. Moreover, there were still two hours before she would go on stage again.
Just as Qin Shuang walked over, she saw a plump and ordinary girl who was trapped by the security guard. Her eyes were red from crying and she was arguing with the security guards. “I’m just a girl from a small town. Ten thousand yuan is my salary for three months! The money I saved painstakingly was intended for the day I have a use for it.”
She wiped her tears. “I’ve been chasing stars for five years. In these five years, I’ve received a lot of favors. Every time we organized an event, because everyone knows that my family is not wealthy, they would always reimburse me for my train tickets and accommodation fees. I’ve never spent a single cent for my idol!
“When I found out Early was Xu Xinyao, I wanted to make it up to her for all those times long ago, so I gritted my teeth and took out the 10,000 yuan that I had saved up for a long time and invested it in her!
“But who knew that it was all a lie? Xu Xinyao isn’t Early! She lied to us! She cheated!”
Qin Shuang was stunned when she heard this.
Empress’s family was not well-to-do. Her parents were both unemployed, and the whole family depended on her salary of 3,000 yuan per month to live.
She knew all this. Hence, when she was chasing after celebrities, she did not want Empress to spend a single cent.
She had to be moderate in her pursuit of stars and could not do anything beyond her abilities.
However, she had to go to school. Moreover, she was strictly controlled by the Qin family when she was young and could not show her face. At that time, she had directly transferred the funds to Empress and asked her to arrange it.
This trust was not something ordinary friends could have.
Empress must have felt guilty, so when she heard that Xu Xinyao was Early, she had taken out 10,000 yuan for her this time.
Ten thousand might not be much to an ordinary person.
However, to her, she had to save that much up for a year.
The security guard said, “You can say anything you want. This is still not a reason for you to rush up the stage in public. If you’d messed up tonight’s program, do you know how much you’d have had to compensate? The police are already on the way. We’ll talk about it when the police arrive!”
Upon hearing this, Qin Shuang hurriedly went forward and said to the director, “Director, it’s not easy being a fan. If we look for the police, it will be too disappointing for the fans. I think we should just forget about this matter!”
When Qin Shuang came over, he was stunned.
Her eyes were shining.
The director did not want to blow things up. After all, it would be a scandal. Moreover, he had to give Qin Shuang face. After all, the production team had already changed investors.
Just as the director was about to nod, Xu Xinyao’s voice was heard. “Forget it? You’re making it sound easy! Do you know that her rushing over has frightened me and affected my performance today?!
“Qin Shuang, are you feeling happy? This way, you can firmly clinch first place! You’re so protective of this person. Don’t tell me you invited this person just to affect my mentality?”
As soon as Xu Xinyao said this, Empress flew into a rage. “Xu Xinyao, you’re slandering me! You’re clearly the one who lied to me. You said you were Early!”
Xu Xinyao’s eyes flickered. “When did I say that I’m Early?”
