Before the preliminary rounds begin, contestants will be screened to eliminate those who are just trying to ride the wave of popularity but don't actually have any real talent.
The girl in front of us was a minor internet celebrity who participated in the competition to gain popularity and increase her fame. However, it was discovered that she had entered the preliminary round through back channels, and she was immediately disqualified.
But she didn't think so, convinced that Gu Baiwei had deliberately stolen her number plate and taken her spot.
What's more, she also found out that this woman had actually made it to the finals and was ranked quite high, so she was even less likely to let her go.
"I'm a singing streamer with millions of fans, how could I possibly fail the preliminary round?"
Su Peipei showed no embarrassment at being exposed; instead, she turned the tables and said, "You're saying I got in through connections? Are you just feeling guilty?"
The girl who hadn't spoken until now chimed in, "Tsk tsk, using someone else's name to participate in the competition, and you still think you're right? And you even came to the finals? Could it be that some sugar daddy forced you in?"
"If you can't speak like a human being, then shut up."
Before Gu Baiwei could even speak, Ye Chuyue got angry and rushed forward to hit them, but Gu Baiwei stopped her: "Yueyue, we still have to go to the competition, don't bother with them."
Seeing her trying to make peace, Su Peipei became even more certain that she was guilty of using connections.
"Tsk, you're like a prostitute trying to maintain a virtuous image. With your level of skill, you still have the nerve to participate in the finals? You should take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror."
She hadn't watched the video of Gu Baiwei's live competition, and only assumed that the other woman was also forced into the competition by a sugar daddy, just like her, except that this woman's sugar daddy seemed to have a more powerful background.
This woman was delicate and frail, with a slender waist and large breasts, and she had a seductive appearance. She was clearly not a docile woman.
Fearing she would delay the competition, Gu Baiwei pulled Ye Chuyue away, saying, "Yueyue, don't pay attention to her. If a dog bites us, we can't bite it back, can we?"
No sooner had she finished speaking than a bottle of water was poured over her head. Su Peipei, looking smug, held up her phone and started a live stream next to Gu Baiwei: "Today I finally ran into this bitch who stole my spot! Come on, everyone, come and see for yourselves..."
Before she could finish speaking, she received a resounding slap across the face.
Gu Baiwei wiped the water off her face, her voice turning cold and deep: "You should be glad I don't have time for you today."
After saying that, she grabbed Ye Chuyue and left. It was about to start, and she didn't want to waste her time on this kind of person.
Su Peipei paused for a moment, then looked at the live stream camera with tears streaming down her face: "Everyone saw it, right? Having capital is all that matters..."
Ye Chuyue asked anxiously, "Auntie, shouldn't we just leave her alone?"
"Let's compete first, and talk about other things later."
Not far behind, Shen Yanqing, who had just followed, witnessed the scene before him, and his eyes gradually darkened.
He was stuck in traffic, and Qi Yu was acting crazy and arguing with him again, which made him arrive a little late.
Su Peipei held her phone, finding her most flattering angle to show herself in the live stream, her face still displaying a pitiful victim's expression, which drew sympathy from many viewers in the live stream.
At that moment, fans in the live stream suddenly started screaming in the chat.
"Ahhh, there's a handsome guy behind the streamer, and he looks like a rich and incredibly handsome guy."
"Handsome guy, where's the handsome guy I can look at?"
Su Peipei was a little confused, and then she saw Shen Yanqing appear behind her through the live broadcast camera.
The man wore a bespoke gray suit, his facial features were exquisite and deep, and his hair was neatly combed back. His noble aura was hard to ignore.
This man was not only tall and had long legs, but he was also very good-looking. In particular, he looked very rich, with the watch on his wrist alone worth tens of millions.
Su Peipei's eyes immediately lit up. She turned off the live stream and gave Shen Yanqing behind her a shy smile: "Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
In the past, she had encountered many men who tried to chat her up, but most of them were of average appearance. Occasionally, there would be one who looked similar, but he was a penniless nobody.
The man she's been dating lately is rich, but he's incredibly greasy-looking. If she weren't short of money and wanted to use his relationship to boost her popularity, Su Peipei wouldn't have put up with this disgusting behavior.
The man in front of her perfectly met her requirements for a partner: he was rich and extremely handsome.
Putting everything else aside, just looking at her appearance alone, Su Peipei felt she could accept it even if she were a little poor.
Ignoring the woman's eager gaze, Shen Yanqing's usually gentle eyes flashed with disgust, and his handsome eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Excuse me, ma'am, your smell is too strong. Could you please move aside?"
Big...Big Sister? He actually called her Big Sister?
Su Peipei was immediately furious. Although she was already in her thirties, she was well-maintained, and many people thought she was only in her early twenties. This man actually…
Before she could even get angry, her best friend pulled her back.
She looked up in displeasure and discovered that a bald, tall, and strong bodyguard who looked like he could kill her with one punch was silently standing behind Shen Yanqing.
He swallowed back the words he wanted to say.
Shen Yanqing raised an eyebrow, as if afraid of getting his eyes dirty, and quickly left while covering his nose.
After taking a few steps, he suddenly ripped off his suit jacket and threw it to Big Head behind him: "Tsk, the smell is awful, throw it away for me."
This was the first time Su Peipei had been so disliked, yet she dared not speak out in anger and could only angrily drag her best friend away.
For some reason, she was having a particularly bad day. She waited for the elevator for a long time, but it never came down, so she had to climb the stairs.
As she stepped into the stairwell in her high heels, she saw a handsome young man leaning against the railing.
The boy's skin was slightly pale, but his face was handsome and refined. Su Peipei's eyes flickered slightly.
She hurriedly tidied her hair and was about to step forward when she suddenly tripped over something, screamed, and fell down the stairs.
Behind her, her best friend hadn't even realized what was happening when the handsome young man who hadn't said a word suddenly moved.
Qi Yu strode down the stairs and stopped beside Su Peipei, looking down at her with concern: "Are you alright?"
Being shown concern by such a handsome younger man, Su Peipei immediately forgot her anger at being ridiculed just now, and reached out her hand to Qi Yu: "I'm in a lot of pain, could you please help me?"
Qi Yu smiled and extended her hand to her: "Okay."
Su Peipei stood up with his help, her expression slightly shy: "Thank you."
Qi Yu curled her lips into a slightly ambiguous smile, leaning closer to her. Her voice was soft, but her words sent shivers down Su Peipei's spine: "Don't be so polite. After all, I was the one who deliberately tripped you just now. It's just a pity you didn't die from the fall."
The young man sighed softly, then released his grip, causing Su Peipei, who was already unsteady on her feet, to fall to the ground again.
"you……"
Su Peipei had barely uttered a single word when she met the boy's cold, dark eyes and instantly fell silent.
Meanwhile, in the restroom, Ye Chuyue was anxiously wiping the water off Gu Baiwei's body: "What should we do? The competition is about to start."
