"You may not know this yet, but our teacher and she are actually sisters. Teacher Yan is the senior sister and she is the junior sister. Back then, they graduated from the same school and studied under the same teacher. At that time, she was more famous than our teacher, but our teacher eventually surpassed her and became even more famous. To be honest, they are both now top musicians in the country and have a very high status in the music industry. But it's strange to say that, whether it was when they were young competing or when they later ventured into the music industry, our teacher always managed to suppress her. So now, if the music industry really rank people by seniority, our teacher must be ranked higher than her, and her status and influence are also slightly better than hers."

"Jealous?" Tang Xiaobao blushed, "So there's such a thing."

Bai Li went on to say, "Our teacher is very humble and low-key. As a senior sister, we always give in to her. But the more she does this, the more respected she becomes. I heard that decades ago, Ma Hongmei openly slandered our teacher several times, but it was no use, and in the end our teacher won. But from beginning to end, our teacher never fought back against her. Instead, it was like someone else's fault, and people couldn't stand it, so they naturally spoke up for her. Over the years, their relationship has not been good. This is an open secret known only to the older generation in the circle. Our teacher, as well, has been tolerant and avoided her, not wanting to fight with her. They're both so old, and there's no point in fighting each other. But we, the younger generation, don't have the same good self-control as our teacher. Look, when a few of us debuted, we bumped into some of Ma Hongmei's disciples, and in the end, we firmly defeated them. Let's put it this way, it's like a fight between two factions. We all belong to the domestic music industry, but we each have our own factions, and we have always won. Do you think she can be happy?"

Tang Xiaobao suddenly realized: "So that's what happened. I thought I had offended her somewhere. I was just taking the blame for our teacher."

"Hehe, why, you still don't want to?"

"How can that be? Master has his work to do, and I should do my best to help him. But what should I do now?" Tang Xiaobao said with a smile.

Bai Li glared at him. "What else can we do? Just confront her. Don't give face to people like her. If you're not convinced, then ask her students to come out and compete with you."

"You know what? Her two students are incredibly talented and their singing is top-notch. They might even make it to the finals. No, if nothing unexpected happens, both of them might make it," Tang Xiaobao said. Bai Li smiled, "Don't worry, we have you here. But I have to give you a heads-up. I know you don't value this championship, but this time, you must fight for it. I think this is what our teacher meant. You must win, and win thoroughly. Didn't you say she'll be a judge in the semi-finals? She'll definitely try to suppress you then. So, you have to shut her up and leave her speechless. It would be best if you could knock her two students down in the semi-finals and prevent them from advancing."

sweat……

Tang Xiaobao had a black line on his forehead.

"Isn't this a bit too much?"

"If you can't win the championship, I'll see how you're going to explain to the teacher, humph."

Bai Li continued, "If you are embarrassed, we will be embarrassed too. Remember that."

Tang Xiaobao was almost crying.

"What happened to me? Why did this happen to me?"

"Hey, I'm just surprised. You're not someone who allows others to bully you. You can't just let it go like this. That's no big deal. If you really dare not take it seriously, believe it or not, I will open Weibo to scold you and let your fans come out to make trouble." Bai Li blinked.

"No, please don't. These guys are so bored every day that they can't wait to cause trouble. Please don't do anything rash. Isn't it okay for me to listen to you?" Tang Xiaobao immediately begged for mercy.

Because Bai Li had a commercial performance in the evening, she had to prepare in the afternoon, so Tang Xiaobao left after dinner.

In fact, Bai Li did let him sit for a while longer, which was very considerate of him. She herself did not smoke, but she had prepared some for Tang Xiaobao in advance.

But Tang Xiaobao didn't dare to stay any longer...

While driving, Tang Xiaobao felt a little conflicted.

I didn't expect that while participating in a program, I would get into a fight with Ma Hongmei.

This was not the result he wanted, but the other party was bullying him too much and even dragged the teacher into it. He was really in a difficult situation.

But nothing goes as he expected.

Before he even got home, Yan Fenglan called him over.

Outside the community, Tang Xiaobao bought a fruit basket. Since he was visiting his teacher, he had to buy some gifts.

If the gift was too heavy, it would seem tacky, so he just chose a fruit basket.

Yan Fenglan is resting today because she is in retirement. Except for some commemorative parties, she will not appear in public easily. Her home is also quite quiet and generally no students come to visit her.

When Tang Xiaobao arrived, Yan Fenglan's face looked a little bad.

"Teacher, who are you angry with?"

He is pretending to be ignorant even though he knows the truth.

In his opinion, Bai Li must have told the teacher what happened today.

But in fact, this is not the case.

Yan Fenglan asked Tang Xiaobao to sit down and then asked directly, "Why did you quarrel with Teacher Ma today?"

Hey, I called her Teacher Ma, but I didn’t call her Junior Sister…

Tang Xiaobao had an idea in mind.

"Teacher, you know everything? It must have been Senior Sister Bai who complained. Actually, it's just a misunderstanding. It's nothing serious, and there's no quarrel. Really, as an elder, it's nothing for her to criticize me a few times."

As he spoke, he was observing Mr. Yan's reaction.

As a result, Yan Fenglan was at a loss for words: "You thought Bai Li told me that, but I tell you, that's not the case at all."

"ah?"

Tang Xiaobao was a little confused.

"Then how did you know? This happened just this morning, just a few hours ago."

Yan Fenglan said, "There are reports online, and they're all accusing you of disrespecting your teachers. Look how much of a fuss this has become, and I've been dragged into this as well. I really hate being compared to her. Hey, you know what happened to this."

sweat……

Is there any news online?

Tang Xiaobao had a black line on his forehead.

Who leaked this?

Fang Cheng?

His first suspicion was that Fang Cheng was deliberately hyping it up.

For the effect of the show.

However, he felt a little dissatisfied in his heart.

He cooperated with Fang Cheng so well and treated him as a friend, but he was used to hype himself again and again. This was a bit too much.

Tang Xiaobao was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond. He said carefully, "Teacher, it's not what they said. I actually respect her very much."

"Yeah?"

"That's true."
