Chapter 506: Trainees Encountered a Mishap

Although Fang Yao caught wind that Mr. Fu came for Mr. Xixi, she was skeptical at first. The scene unfolding before her eyes proved the rumors to be true. Mr. Fu even had a gift for Mr. Xixi.

Sure, Mr. Fu might be her idol, but Fang Yao was also an idol in other people’s eyes. She was not going to be nosy and ask what the gift was. It was simply impolite.

After delivering the goods, Jing Yu excused himself and took off.

Shen Xi had a hunch what it was. Nevertheless, she waited until returning to her room to look at the gift, and still, Shen Xi was kicking herself about it.

Inside the gift bag was none other than painkillers and brown sugar!

Her flawless disguise was not that perfect after all. Shen Xi even suspected that Fu Qingye saw through her Dr. Jiu Zhou’s disguise at Fu’s residence.

As expected from someone from the Fu family; not only did Fu Qingli have a pair of eagle eyes to recognize her in an instant, but Fu Qingye was also a force to be reckoned with. The youngest Fu family member was a silly wit in comparison.

It appeared to Shen Xi that the youngest Fu family member conducted himself in a decent manner yet seemed to be a little cranky, silly, and childish in front of her.

Shen Xi was fixated on the painkiller and brown sugar before picking up her phone to scroll to Fu Qingye’s number. She gazed at the contact number for a long time but still could not bring herself to call. Never mind, it was probably nothing.

She heard Fu Qingye was supposed to appear on the show tomorrow as the mystery guest. However, he was suddenly caught up with a personal affair and had to leave. Hence, the schedule was changed to today for him to interact with the mentors and trainees.

Before she had a chance to put down her phone, a flurry of footsteps outside followed by a knock on the door was heard. Some trainees had gotten into an accident.

Shen Xi grabbed the phone and went out.

Gu Yang was outside her door. “Something happened to the trainees. Come with us to take a look.”

He knew Mr. Xixi would not be of much help in this scenario, but it was best he came along for formality’s sake since he was here.

Shen Xi asked, “Who?”

Gu Yang shook his head. “Su Ruowan and another girl. I’m not sure about the details but I heard they fell down the stairs.”

The information gave Shen Xi an inkling of the situation. If it were Su Ruowan and another girl, the other girl must be the bestie in her clique.

Having received the news, the other mentors bumped into each other en route.

“Mr. Muyan went ahead,” Fang Yao explained. Since Su Ruowan was his sister, no doubt he must be worried sick.

The mentors only heard about Su Ruowan and had no clue who was the other trainee involved in the accident. They needed to go there to find out.

With the finals around the corner and tomorrow being the last episode shooting before the finals, the production team was most worried about a sudden mishap. The mentors arrived at the trainee dorms to a chaotic scene.

The trainees and production crew stood in the corridors and surrounded the door as they were not able to enter. They were murmuring in discussion carrying animated expressions on their faces.

With the mentors drawing close, they immediately gave way to the mentors.

Since the situation was getting out of hand, the production crew quickly urged the crowd to leave and rest well for tomorrow’s elimination round.

The trainees sulkily left in groups of twos and threes while still talking among themselves.

Song Wenye and her group took off together. She even took the time to send Shen Xi a text message. [Song Wenye: Good news. Su Ruowan’s injured and I think it’s pretty bad. It’d be great if she can’t go on with the competition. I feel sick to my stomach every time I see that smug look on her face.]

She had had enough. Song Wenye wondered if the fans were blind to mistake a disgusting person like Su Ruowan as a goddess. More like a ghoul. These fans were idiots to spend money and vote for her.

Nevertheless, it was not as though Song Wenye had control over the fans or the votes. The show was such a massive hit and the fanbase was too huge. There was no way anyone could influence the votes unless the production team was playing mastermind behind the scenes.

Song Wenye was reminded by her ambition and declaration to debut front and center to her classmates that she would make it till the very end, plus bragging rights to Xixi of course. Yet now, it looked like Su Ruowan was going to come out on top instead.

She was fine with it, seeing that she could not do it despite her best efforts. However, Song Wenye felt she let Xixi down as she failed to avenge Xixi by putting Su Ruowan in her place.

Next to her was Ye Weiyang who might not have much interaction with Su Ruowan but avoids contact with the latter, knowing that Song Wenye was not a fan of her. Ye Weiyang whispered a question, “Can she still go on with the competition?”

Song Wenye happily laughed out loud and patted Ye Weiyang’s shoulder. “Yangyang, you must have Lady Luck in the flesh with that luck of yours. Su Ruowan will be forced to withdraw from the competition if her leg is broken. You’d definitely be the winner.”

Ye Weiyang furrowed her brows. “But I don’t want to win like this. I want to have a fair competition with her.”

“Do you think the situation now is fair? Anyone with eyes and ears can tell that you’re way better than her. You dance and sing better while having better looks than her. Is she really skillful? No, she got to where she is today by dishing out cash and marketing by herself.” Song Wenye gave Ye Weiyang a look to not be naïve as she stated the facts. “It doesn’t just take skills to be in the limelight. All you need is money and hype. You deserve to be the champion.”

Song Wenye might be biased and go a little off the mark, but Tong Kejun and the rest had to agree.

Indeed, Su Ruowan had the talent, but her performance had retained a flatline while Yangyang showed improvement by leaps and bounds. Taking overall performance into consideration, Yangyang was the winner in their eyes.

However, with that huge fan base of Su Ruowan, she reigned on top in both vote counts and ranking. It was undeniable that she was the fans’ favorite.

The staff members had persuaded all the trainees to leave and left security personnel to keep watch so no one could get through the door.

In the dorms lay the trainees who were involved in the accident. They were He Lu and Su Ruowan.
