The audience at the venue were alright; they were kind of giving the diva face and applauded them as they left the stage after the performance. However, the viewers in the live stream were not so agreeable and chatted freely.
"Um"
"The queen of pop I've been waiting for is actually her. Is she hiding her true strength? I feel like she didn't sing as well as any of the other contestants. Please don't criticize if you disagree, thank you."
"emmmm... I feel the same way."
"I'm somewhat disappointed."
"Perhaps Mo Jingjing's team just performed too well..."
Most viewers in the live stream were not very satisfied with the performance of the diva's team. Only a few die-hard fans explained that their diva's age is a factor, and the high-intensity training inevitably puts a strain on her body and affects her performance.
Such an explanation is still somewhat far-fetched, not to mention that it is only some people's speculation.
Backstage, the diva kicked everyone out of her dressing room, took out her phone and dialed a number, only to have the caller hang up immediately.
The other party's words felt like a provocation, which made her furious and caused her to lose control of her emotions.
Stubbornly dialing that number over and over again.
Finally, after hanging up four times in a row, the other party answered the phone, but their tone was extremely cold: "Just say what you want to say, I'm very busy right now."
"What did that text message you sent me mean? What exactly do you want? Don't forget, the reason I participated in this variety show was because you invited me. Now, are you deliberately trying to embarrass me?"
The diva broke down emotionally, her voice almost screaming.
She was the first person to dare yell at the Buddha like that.
But he couldn't yell for long. At this moment, a hint of impatience appeared on the face of the man on the other end of the phone: "Watch your tone and attitude towards me! Do you think I don't know what you did back then? You were after my looks and assets, you tricked me into bed, and you even used tricks to drive away my fiancée!"
"However, I also want to thank you. Thank you for teaching me not to be a good person, because that's why I have achieved what I have today. But I have never mistreated you either. Can you say that everything you have now is without my help? I've tolerated you for so many years because of the children."
"If you're already old and blind, I can tell you what I mean. I've taken a liking to Mo Jingjing. She's the future mistress of the Buddhist sect that I've chosen. You're a pragmatic woman, so don't touch her. I watched your live stream, and I've already had a doctor issue a diagnosis. Soon your team will post online saying you're unwell."
"Buddha……"
The Queen was unwilling to accept this. After hearing what the Buddha said, she wanted to say something, but the Buddha interrupted her directly.
"I'm giving you some face. Don't think I don't know how many young men you've ravaged over the years. If you want to destroy everything, I don't mind letting your son get to know you as his mother. Of course, if you ruin me, all that will be left for your son is endless infamy and not a single penny of property!"
After saying the last sentence, Buddha hung up the phone and began to enjoy watching Mo Jingjing on the live stream.
It is said that true beauty lies in the bone structure, not just the skin. He always felt that a beauty like Mo Jingjing, even if she died with him a hundred years later, would still be the most beautiful skeleton lady in the underworld.
Looking at the disconnected phone, the diva felt a chill run through her body, and the hand holding the phone trembled violently.
She never imagined that the weapon she once used to attack Buddha would now become a handle for him to blackmail her. But, more importantly, she was actually afraid.
She's gotten old, and she's lost that wildness she used to have. When you get old, what you want most is stability and companionship. A few days ago, she was really having fun with those young men, but in the last two years, all she's wanted is someone to be with.
When she came out of the lounge, she looked like she had aged several years in an instant.
This change was noticeable not only to those around her but also to viewers in the live stream. Coupled with the statement released by her studio, it directly confirmed that she was unwell.
Soon, netizens became much more forgiving of her.
But a competition is a competition, not a charity party; it's all about skill.
After all the mentors finished their performances, the voting results in the live stream were already out. Mo Jingjing was far ahead and ranked first. Three people were eliminated this time. Apart from the group led by the Heavenly King, the remaining three groups each eliminated one person.
The further you progress in the knockout stage, the more brutal and bloody it becomes.
After several rounds of intense competition, the production team changed the rules. The competition format where the winning team would ensure the safety of all its members was canceled, and the competition became a solo show. The production team would not provide any challenges, and the mentors would not accompany the contestants on stage; they would only provide training and guidance to everyone.
Finally, eliminations will be based on individual rankings.
The existing trainees are competing for a spot in the seven-member group.
When this rule was announced, some people were happy and some were sad. Some people in Mo Jingjing's team couldn't help but shed tears. Mo Jingjing knew that they were not afraid of being eliminated, but were sad because their abilities and talents were not as good as others.
Some were reluctant to sever their brotherhood and didn't want to see their former brothers become enemies.
But that's how competitions are, and these are things they have to face.
These emotions can only be processed by themselves.
Without the teacher leading the team to perform on stage, Mo Jingjing's recording schedule became much easier, and she could also take on other engagements.
One day, Cheng Meng excitedly knocked on Mo Jingjing's door, her face beaming with joy as if she had won the lottery.
"Sister Meng, you seem so happy today. Did something wonderful fall from the sky, or did Brother Zhang propose to you?"
"Jingjing, tell me honestly, is your mouth blessed or something? It's too effective! I came here to tell you two things. First, a pie did fall from the sky, but it didn't fall on my head, it fell on yours! A top international screenwriter wrote a script for you!"
"Hey, don't look so calm! Let me tell you, this screenwriter is a legendary screenwriter! Every script he writes has won awards for all the lead actors!"
Cheng Meng is really excited right now, and she's already thinking about what she should wear on the day Mo Jingjing receives the award.
Anyway, Mo Jingjing looks good in anything.
"And the second thing?"
Mo Jingjing's expression finally changed.
"Ta-da! Zhang Heng proposed to me! He said he's all ready, and we can get married anytime I want!"
As Cheng Meng spoke, she directly showed off the large diamond ring on her hand.
At first, she thought Zhang Heng was just like her, a middle-class person, but he had made more money over the years because the artists he managed were successful. She never expected him to be a typical rich second generation!
