Chapter 74 Blind Date
Naturally, this scene was not captured by the director.
The judges did not want to cause trouble and did not respond to Suman.
Of course, Su Man would not really let them answer.
She continued on her own, asking pointedly, "Who is it? It's not the teleprompter's fault at all. So, why did my score change on its own?"
The host almost couldn't catch it, "Uh, that... maybe there's really something wrong with the machine. Let's adjust it backstage."
The director had a gloomy face and asked the backstage to change Su Man's score to 60.
But even so, contestant number four still got the highest average score, narrowly winning by one point and still qualifying for the next round.
Su Man completely quit her job.
"I used to believe that as long as people live in this world, they will always have to compromise. But when it comes to something I truly love, I can't pretend to be ignorant. If I can't change the world, then I'd rather not be the executioner holding the butcher's knife. I don't want to, and I'm not qualified to, stand on this stage and stifle others' passions and dreams."
After Su Man finished her domineering speech, she put down the microphone and walked off the stage.
The scene was in chaos for a while.
The director came up to stop her and tried to persuade her, but Su Man refused to compromise.
During the live video broadcast, the tone of the comments changed 180 degrees, with all the comments praising Suman:
"What a passionate passage! It actually brought tears to my eyes..."
"This girl looks so delicate, but I didn't expect her to be so strong. I love her!"
"She's beautiful, and has positive values. I declare that from today on, I'm a fan of her!!!"
…
But Su Man didn't know all this. She got off the stage and left the recording site directly.
Suman was prepared to be banned from all aspects.
She held the phone, hesitating whether to ask Xiao Beisheng for help and ask him to use his identity to protect her.
If she had any weight in Xiao Beisheng's heart, based on what happened last night, Xiao Beisheng would definitely feel guilty towards Su Man and help Su Man without saying a word.
But on the other hand, Su Man didn't want to rely too much on Xiao Beisheng.
In the past, she could just grab any man and use him, but now something seems different...
Just as she was hesitating, Song Lin appeared in front of Su Man.
"Teacher Su!"
The young man looked at Su Man happily, his eyes shining: "Teacher Su, I watched the live broadcast, so handsome!"
"When did you come?" Su Man was surprised.
Song Lin said, "I rushed here the moment you raised your objection. Last night you said you were going to do something big, and I thought it would take a while, but I didn't expect you to come so soon."
"Then you'd better be prepared and stay away from me. I may have to bear the storm." Su Man mocked herself.
"No, I said I would help you."
Su Man was 70% skeptical and 30% joking, "Really? You're so capable, can you help me bear the consequences of this live broadcast accident? Not only the live broadcast accident, but also the pressure from the program team's investors, and the contract breach issue... As the person involved, I'm scared just thinking about it, you...?"
"I'm really going to be sad that you look down on me like that. Anyway, just wait!"
Song Lin swore solemnly.
Looking at him like this, Su Man almost believed that this kid was capable.
After being interrupted by Song Lin, Su Man forgot about looking for Xiao Beisheng. Su Man took Song Lin back to H University.
For the next two days, Suman's life was peaceful.
The expected storm did not come.
Su Man followed the routine and went between school and Qiao's house every day. It was as if the program failure had never happened. Su Man's work on campus went on as usual.
To take precautions, she consulted Qiao Shiyan about the breach of contract.
Qiao Shiyan looked at the contract and his brows furrowed more and more.
He asked, "Does Beisheng know about this? What did he say? If he comes forward, this matter might be easier to resolve."
Su Man answered honestly: "I didn't tell him. In fact, we haven't seen each other for three days and have no contact."
Qiao Shiyan was surprised: "Such a big thing happened to you, and he didn't even know? But... I heard that Luo Yan's cancer has worsened and she needs surgery. The surgery should be in the next two days."
"You mean, he's always been with Luo Yan?"
"Beisheng is probably running between the company and the hospital, so he can't take care of you for the time being." After saying that, he comforted Su Man, "It's okay, even if Beisheng is not here, I will still help you. At least regarding the breach of contract, I will do my best to help you minimize the losses."
Su Man remembered the last time she misunderstood Xiao Beisheng, and she couldn't help but send him a message: [What have you been doing these past two days? ]
[I'm in the hospital, Luo Yan is having surgery.]
Just a few numbers, simple, cold and indifferent.
She did not directly ask Xiao Beisheng whether he was looking after Luo Yan, but asked him what he was doing, which was like leaving Xiao Beisheng some room so that he could choose to deceive her.
But he disdains even deception.
Who would get into this situation right after officially starting a relationship?
Su Man originally thought that after going through all this with Xiao Beisheng, their relationship had become closer than before, but it seemed that they were back to square one overnight.
She put down her phone and closed her eyes.
Her head was buzzing and she just wanted to have a good sleep.
Su Man was in a panic, but the production team never contacted her, and Qiao Shiyan's response strategy was of no use.
It was not until the fourth day when Su Man went out to work that someone came to her door.
Opposite him was an elegant middle-aged man, dressed in a low-key but clean manner, which inexplicably made people feel a sense of awe.
"Miss Su, our leader would like to borrow some of your time to discuss something private with you."
Su Man was alert: "Who is your leader...?"
"The leader's surname is Song. Miss Su has met him before and even had dinner with him," she said, handing over a business card. "The leader said you'll understand after reading this card."
As soon as she saw the business card, Su Man's memory was awakened.
This was the person I met at a dinner party I accompanied Shen Qing to before.
The bureau was filled with people from all walks of life, including both the political and business factions. The leader, surnamed Song, was an official promoted from the local level a few years ago. At that time, he also said that he had recommended one of his children to Su Man on WeChat and wanted to introduce them to Su Man as a potential partner.
At that time, Su Man gave her contact information to the other party just out of courtesy, but when the other party wanted to add her as a friend, Su Man never accepted.
Afterwards, Suman forgot about this matter.
He came to my house at this time, and I didn't know why.
"Don't worry, Miss Su. I won't keep you too long. I'm nearby." The person on the other end was very kind.
Su Man thought about it and agreed to meet.
The other party took Su Man and walked around for 78,000 miles before arriving under a large banyan tree. A low-key car was parked under the tree, with someone vaguely sitting in the back seat.
The car door opened and the person inside got out. The air of decency he exuded was even stronger than that of the subordinate just now.
Gray trousers and a gray jacket, with the uniform badge showing through the collar.
The man smiled and said, "Miss Su, I'm sorry to invite you here in this way. My son is really pestering me so much that I can't do anything about it."
Suman was confused.
She lied, "I lost my contact information last time, and I haven't been able to officially meet Master Ling yet. I don't know what Director Song meant."
The man explained a few words and Su Man understood.
The son of the man opposite had heard of Su Man from somewhere and had admired her for a long time. This time, Sun Yong did not cause trouble for Su Man because the man's son begged his father to help stop him.
So the man hoped to use this matter to make an exchange with Suman and let Suman go on a blind date with his son.
"Actually, it's just a meal for you young people to have together. If you're attracted to each other, you can get together. If not, being friends is not bad either. What do you think, Miss Su?"
