“Sister Sheng Sheng!” Cheng Ye walked over from opposite her and greeted her excitedly. When he saw Gu Shen behind her, he greeted him politely and called him Teacher Gu before asking Ling Sheng softly, “Did you come to the wrong place? I’m right opposite you.”
Gu Shen’s chest heaved with anger. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Su Yi walk over from the end of the corridor. Upon seeing him greet her, she ran over to hug Ling Sheng and asked with a smile, “You’re very familiar with Teacher Gu, right? Why not chat longer?”
Ling Sheng shook her head, her voice becoming colder and more mocking. “We’re not close.”
Gu Shen felt even angrier. A fire burned in his chest as he watched the woman enter the lounge while chatting and laughing with others. He kicked the door frame angrily.
That d*mn woman had ignored him after offending him. She was clearly playing hard to get to attract his attention, yet she refused to admit it!
Cheng Ye, Su Yi, and Si Chengluo were in the waiting room that had been arranged by Su Yi. The two of them liked to stay silent half an hour before the competition. He was a mentor who worked at Huo Ci’s Studio, so he was given preferential treatment and a private resting room and makeup room.
Ling Sheng saw Si Chengluo sitting quietly in a corner and watching the video with his earphones on. He was completely immersed in his own world and had not even noticed them entering.
Su Yi smiled. “Little Luo is like that. He’s always tense before the competition. He can’t hear us.”
“I heard you,” Si Chengluo suddenly said. He put down the tablet on his lap, stood up, and walked over to Ling Sheng. He reached out and said seriously, “Hi, I’m Si Chengluo.”
Upon seeing Su Yi’s awkward expression, Ling Sheng shook his hand politely. “Hi, Ling Sheng.”
Su Yi was confused. Are you f*cking kidding me?
Cheng Ye had a confused look on his face. It was very complicated. Why had Brother Luo suddenly heard them?
Ling Sheng retracted her hand and realized that Si Chengluo was holding it very tightly. He was strong, so it hurt a little. She frowned and retracted her arm.
“Sorry.” Si Chengluo retracted his hand nervously and looked at her apologetically. In a worried voice, he asked, “Does it hurt?”
Ling Sheng shook her head. “It doesn’t.”
He felt a little strange. Was she a fan?
Si Chengluo looked at her, his heart aching instantly. She had not recognized him. He hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to say. Then, he explained, “I can hear you. There’s no sound coming from the earphones.”
Su Yi rolled her eyes immediately. Brother, I always thought you wouldn’t hear us if we kept our voices down.
Cheng Ye: I also thought the earphones were producing sound.
After Si Chengluo greeted them, he ran back to the sofa to watch the video. Like a child with autism, he was immersed in his own world.
Su Yi sized Ling Sheng up like a monster before glancing at Si Chengluo. As long as her stinky brother put on his earphones, he would ignore everything around him. He would even ignore Big Boss Huo’s presence.
The team members joked with the judges that the earphones were part of his body. After putting them on, he entered a parallel world.
Today was a bad day. He had walked out of his own world to greet Sheng Sheng and even revealed his secret.
Since the earphones were not playing anything, he could hear their conversation. What was the point of wearing them?
“Why are you looking at me?” Ling Sheng pouted as she sat on a chair and asked with a smile, “Can your makeup artist come over and do my makeup for me?”
Su Yi walked over and picked up a makeup brush to gesture to her face. “I’ll serve you, great old one.”
Before long, Ji Fanchen came over and played a video of Little Gray for Cheng Ye. He even translated it and said that Little Gray was cheering him on.
Ling Sheng could not help but laugh. Was he stupid? Little Gray was a donkey. How would it even cheer him on? Would he know what it was saying? Brother Chen was really interesting.
However, Cheng Ye, who was a silly child, believed whatever he said. He was overjoyed as he played it over and over again. He even asked Ji Fanchen if Little Gray would watch the live-stream.
Ling Sheng could not take it anymore. She looked at Su Yi and they exchanged a glance. They were both fools!
