Ms. Bigshot Is Pampered by All

Chapter 57: Chapter 57 Call Liu Hai

Just as the judges were about to leave the stage, Xue Yao and the other contestants stood up, ready to make their exit—

“Hold on.” Chi Gui’s voice, somewhat subdued, came through, “Excuse me, I suspect the microphone is broken, please check the microphone.”

Upon hearing Chi Gui’s words, Xue Yao tensed up and looked nervously at the stage crew.

She had indeed tampered with the microphone before she stepped off stage after her performance.

Although she did not believe that Su Niannian would really be able to write a better song in three days, she still damaged the microphone just to be absolutely sure.

But with so many professionals present who had not noticed, how could Chi Gui, a complete amateur, have spotted it?

The judges, almost all gone from the stage, turned to glance at her upon hearing Chi Gui’s words but did not care and continued to leave the stage.

The stage crew stepped forward, impatiently saying, “The competition is over, non-essential personnel please leave the venue as quickly as possible!”

Seeing this, Xue Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief and mocked, “Blaming the microphone for singing poorly, such a disgrace to the school!”

When Su Niannian heard Chi Gui being ridiculed, she took a deep breath, holding back her tears, and headed down the stage, “Sister Chi, let’s go! It was just my bad luck this time.”

But Chi Gui grabbed her arm and said indifferently, “Did you perform abnormally?”

Su Niannian shook her head.

She was confident that she had indeed sung to the best of her abilities.

But now, what did it all mean?

“That’s fine then.” Chi Gui walked up to the stage crew and calmly said, “Excuse me, please check the microphone.”

The stage crew were extremely annoyed.

The preliminary rounds were just a means for the show to boost its popularity; now the desired effect was achieved, who cared about how an amateur contestant performed?

“Young lady, the judges have already left,” the stage crew said to Chi Gui with a deliberately difficult tone, “The footage has been shot according to the program schedule, and we have no right to ask them to come back just for you to re-record… if you really want your friend to sing, go ahead and get the judges to come back first!”

Unexpectedly, they heard Chi Gui say with some surprise, “Is that all it takes?”

Stage crew: ?

Had he not expressed himself correctly?

Why did he get the impression that she was thinking, “Is that all?”

The stage crew felt doubtful but still nodded, “Yes.”

“Wait for me a moment,” Chi Gui said, pulling out her phone.

Hearing her words, a wave of laughter spread through the crowd below.

“Who is this person? She can’t seriously think she can summon the judges at her whim, right?”

“Seems like the Chi Family’s newly acknowledged daughter?” Xue Yao, standing in the crowd, feigned a sigh, “Ah… Those who leap from being commoners to the rich overnight tend to get arrogant, always thinking they’re better than everyone else.”

“Heh, even if she does have connections, what difference does it make? What’s the status and standing of Master Liu Hai? I’ve heard that even the big families in Beijing have to depend on his mood to hire him; if she can actually get Master Liu Hai to come back, then I’ll walk on my hands and eat shit!”

Xue Yao listened to the mockery around her and curled her lips in satisfaction.

She took out her phone to video call Chi Yan and said with a giggle, “Yanyan, you’ve got to see this, that simpleton your family took back is about to embarrass herself in the entertainment circle!”

Chi Yan was at the Su Family home, amusing Mrs. Su with pleasant conversation.

Her expression changed slightly when she received the message from Xue Yao.

Mrs. Su noticed, “What’s the matter?”

Zhao Yuexiu also looked over, “Yao Yao, you were just chatting with Aunt Su, why are you checking your phone?”

Xue Yao sat coyly on the couch, pursing her lips lightly with a hint of difficulty, “I’m sorry, Aunt Su… it’s just that… my sister said in front of hundreds of people that she could call out Master Liu Hai… I was too shocked…”

Zhao Yuexiu spoke angrily, “Is she not embarrassed enough as it is?”

Mrs. Su curled her lips disdainfully, “I don’t blame her. With the kind of life she’s led before, she probably doesn’t even know who Master Liu Hai really is.”

While they were talking, Xue Yao’s video call screen just happened to capture the moment Chi Gui’s phone call connected—
