Bei Jiafei focused on the way Qiu Xue pretended! She just felt that Qiu Xue wore a thick mask, so fake!
Actually, sometimes she did admire Qiu Xue — this remarkable skill of changing faces is not something that ordinary people can master.
What an ugly disguise behind that beautiful, smiling face! Hypocrisy, disgust, ugliness, match her perfectly!
Enthusiastic applause resounded again, and the audience’s anticipation for this performance had reached an indelible height.
However, there is no harm without comparison. Bei Jiafei had already spoiled the audience’s appetite, so how could Qiu Xue salvage the situation next!
The expected applause turned into excruciating pain. Qiu Xue stood on the stage, her lips trembling frantically. She didn’t have Bei Jiafei’s unique voice, nor her exquisite skills.
Her musical skills were all imitations, without comparison it was fine, but once comparisons were made, it was just a poor mimicry...
It was precisely because of understanding all this that Qiu Xue chose to hide Bei Jiafei, going as far as risking danger to learn singing skills from her.
But just at this second...
All plans were ruined...
The singer had to perform on stage.
The music had already started, and Qiu Xue had no other choice...
She braced herself and brought the microphone to her lips, forcefully suppressing the trembling in her voice, and sang the song she was about to perform!
Gu Tong glanced at Qiu Xue on the stage, a contemptuous smile tugging at her lips.
If she were Qiu Xue, she would rather faint on stage than sing a single line.
The real gap in the world is that what one yearns for eagerly isn’t as wonderful as what is just out of reach!
All the anticipation fell, even into the negatives, and naturally, the likeability dropped, simply because it was no longer unique.
The current Qiu Xue was too immature, compared to the late-stage Qiu Xue in past lives, she was not ruthless enough, and her methods were not sophisticated.
She was merely reprimanded by Bei Jiafei, yet she had already forgotten to seek a countermeasure. By the time she thought of a solution, it might already be too late!
"Qiu Xue’s performance today was so-so... didn’t feel as good as the young girl who sang before..."
Among the noblewomen, someone murmured, "Is it because the Devil King is in the audience, and she’s nervous, turning her performance average..."
Sun Caixing also frowned, saying, "It shouldn’t be nervousness, right? Qiu Xue is, after all, the Bai Ling of the arts class, it shouldn’t be ..."
Once again mentioning Qiu Xue’s title, yet it suddenly felt mismatched, and vaguely seemed a bit overrated...
This sudden emotion, they didn’t know why, and couldn’t find any reason behind it.
Audiences are always the group that won’t uncover the truth. They watch performances merely for entertainment consumption, fleeting, and they definitely won’t expend brain cells thinking.
The so-called promotion and propaganda all depend on the manipulator’s guidance to achieve the desired effect.
Gu Tong utilized audience psychology to perfectly control the ups and downs of the entire performance.
Even their basic emotions were anticipated!
The audience is the easiest crowd to appease, which is why the entertainment industry thrived later on, and why stars became so popular.
"You, how did you know..."
Cheng Bing lowered her voice, but the astonishment in her tone was completely undisguised.
