Shortly after Mi Qianqian left, the makeup artists came in one after another. Upon entering, they all had a unified reaction: they stared blankly at Su Yanke for a moment, and then surrounded her with shining eyes.
Lu Xingmi watched from the side and couldn't help chuckling, saying that she would fall out of favor in the future! Everyone burst into laughter. Mi Qianqian next door heard this and gritted her porcelain teeth so hard that they were about to break.
Su Yanke noticed that there were three seats in this lounge. Her hairstyle was almost done, but the third person was nowhere to be seen. So she asked Lu Xingmi if she knew what was going on.
Lu Xingmi glanced at the empty seat and said indifferently, "You mean that seat? His name is Li Xinchao. He joined halfway through the last session. He doesn't often come to the lounge. He always goes straight to the stage."
Su Yanke nodded to show that she understood. Just then, she suddenly heard a commotion outside. By this time, Su Yanke's styling was also finished. She exchanged a look with Lu Xingmi and then walked towards the door.
Lu Xingmi opened the door. Su Yanke poked her head out from behind Lu Xingmi and saw that the corridor was in a complete mess.
There was a broken porcelain box on the ground, with the food and soup spilled all over. Mi Qianqian was arguing with the man opposite her. The man's grayish - white clothes were covered in oil stains. His eyes were red, his hair was a bit messy, and there were faint palm prints on his face.
Su Yanke learned what had happened from the conversations of the people around.
It turned out that the man was Hou Yuheng, the first - place winner of the previous session. His family was not well - off, so he always brought his own meals to the program crew. Today, just as he was about to open the door, Mi Qianqian was also at the door.
Mi Qianqian pushed the door open. Hou Yuheng didn't notice, and the soup in his hand was hit by the door. Some of it splashed on the edge of Mi Qianqian's dress.
Mi Qianqian was already full of anger, and this incident completely enraged her. She immediately stepped forward and knocked the food out of Hou Yuheng's hand onto the ground. Hou Yuheng couldn't bear it and wanted to go forward to reason with her, but without saying a word, Mi Qianqian stepped forward and slapped him.
After all, Hou Yuheng was a dancer, so his reaction was quite fast. The slap didn't land squarely on his face, but there were still some small scratches left by her fingernails. If it weren't for Su Yanke's sharp eyes, one would really think that Hou Yuheng hadn't been hit.
By this time, the people around also noticed the conflict, but seeing that it was Mi Qianqian, they just stood by and watched. No one stepped forward to stop them.
Hou Yuheng was already aggrieved. When he heard the people around saying that it was his fault for standing at the door and dirtying Mi Qianqian's clothes, he felt that he deserved it. His eyes instantly turned red.
Su Yanke frowned after hearing this. Throughout this incident, Hou Yuheng was quite innocent. He couldn't have predicted that Mi Qianqian would be at the door. Moreover, what Mi Qianqian did afterwards was even more excessive.
Su Yanke saw Mi Qianqian glance at her and intended to continue. She knew that what was happening now might be related to her.
Mi Qianqian's anger had subsided a great deal after the previous incident. When she saw Su Yanke come out, she wanted to teach her a lesson and make an example of someone.
Just as Mi Qianqian was about to slap Hou Yuheng again, a sharp pain suddenly shot through her wrist, as if it was about to break. Mi Qianqian's face instantly turned deathly pale, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Su Yanke moved like a shadow. The next second, she passed through the crowd and stood in front of Mi Qianqian. She grabbed Mi Qianqian's wrist with her right hand and exerted force. Mi Qianqian was in so much pain that she couldn't even make a sound. Her mouth just trembled.
"If you have any complaints about me, come at me directly. What's the point of finding a scapegoat?" Su Yanke flung Mi Qianqian's hand back at her. Mi Qianqian lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Lu Xingmi quickly stepped forward to smooth things over. "Okay, okay. The program is about to start. Everyone, disperse. Sister Dong, take Mi Qianqian to touch up her makeup and change her clothes quickly."
Su Yanke knew that time was tight and didn't want to waste any more time on Mi Qianqian. She leaned close to Mi Qianqian's ear and said, "Next time you want to vent your anger randomly, I don't mind making a hole in your head to let you cool off and wake up."
After saying that, Su Yanke took Hou Yuheng behind her and walked into the lounge with Lu Xingmi.
Lu Xingmi looked at Su Yanke and the others, thought about what had happened outside, and said that she would go out to handle it. Then she left.
Everyone in the lounge had gone out to watch the excitement and were still too afraid to come back, so now only Su Yanke and Hou Yuheng were left.
Su Yanke looked at Hou Yuheng, whose emotions had calmed down. There was still a hint of redness in the corners of his eyes.
Su Yanke asked Hou Yuheng to sit in her seat. She took out the ointment prepared for her by her fans before, lifted Hou Yuheng's chin, and gently began to apply the medicine on his face.
Su Yanke knew that dancers nowadays attached great importance to their faces. Looking at the small scratches on Hou Yuheng's fair face, she was worried that they might leave scars, so she immediately pulled him in to apply the medicine.
Hou Yuheng had already given up on resisting when Mi Qianqian was about to slap him again, because he knew that he didn't have the ability to resist and was ready to take the hit.
Unexpectedly, someone blocked in front of him and helped him out. At that moment, his mind was completely blank. Then his body seemed to act on its own without his brain's control.
It wasn't until now that his face was surrounded by the warm hands that his brain finally started to function again.
A delicate and extremely beautiful face appeared in front of him, and his brain froze again.
By this time, Su Yanke had already applied the medicine. She noticed the oil stains on his clothes that had been accidentally splashed on. She blinked and suddenly thought of something. Then she left the lounge.
When Hou Yuheng came to his senses, he found that Su Yanke was gone. At this moment, the sense of inferiority that he had always ignored welled up in his heart. Hou Yuheng lowered his head and tightly clenched his hands. The already wrinkled shirt now looked even more unsightly.
While Hou Yuheng was still in a low mood, the door of the lounge opened. Su Yanke walked in and said to the people behind her, "Thank you all for your trouble."
Hou Yuheng was taken to the fitting room by the stylists who came in behind Su Yanke to get his look sorted out.
Seeing that Hou Yuheng was still a bit dazed, Su Yanke said with a smile, "Don't be nervous. Your clothes are a bit dirty now. It would be disrespectful to the audience if you go on stage like this. My friend happens to have a spare set of clothes. You can wear it for now. Is that okay?"
Hou Yuheng didn't dare to look into Su Yanke's eyes. He just shyly nodded and followed them to change clothes.
So she didn't dislike me. She went to prepare clothes for me. She is really so gentle. I wish it could always be like this.
The designer borrowed from Lu Xingmi by Su Yanke was very efficient. They finished just five minutes before the program started.
Su Yanke looked at Hou Yuheng and was quite surprised.
Hou Yuheng was wearing a long black - and - red robe, with short, clean and refreshing hair. His whole temperament was completely different from before. If he was a little white rabbit before, now he was a big bad wolf.
Su Yanke was still admiring Hou Yuheng's new look, and Hou Yuheng blushed as he let her look at him. Just then, the staff outside started to urge them.
Only then did Su Yanke and Hou Yuheng leave the lounge. Hou Yuheng obviously let out a sigh of relief when he walked out of the door.
On the stage, the host had already started introducing the judges of this program. It was almost time for the contestants to appear.
This time, the contestants would appear in the order of their rankings from the last time, from the lowest to the highest. The first team was Zheng Qianqian and Li Xinchao, the second team was Mi Qianqian and Lu Xingmi, and the last team was Hou Yuheng.
From the cheers of the fans as each of them went out, it could be seen that Lu Xingmi and Hou Yuheng were very popular.
Since Su Yanke joined halfway through, she wasn't grouped with them and was introduced separately.
Su Yanke didn't expect that when the host announced her name, there was a deafening cheer from the audience, louder than all the previous cheers from the fans. Su Yanke couldn't help but be stunned. She looked into the audience and saw a group of familiar faces.
They were the fans who had been at the door of the program crew before. Su Yanke was very surprised. Hadn't they gone back before?
With a head full of doubts, Su Yanke greeted them.
Su Yanke didn't know that there had been a storm on the Internet before.
The fight between her and Mi Qianqian had been filmed and posted on the Internet, causing another round of quarrels. When the fans saw this, they were worried that Su Yanke would be bullied alone in the program crew, so they all came back to support her.
At this moment, Su Yanke felt something strange. She found that there were signs of loosening in her dantian again and guessed that there might be some reason that she didn't know about.
Su Yanke felt a strong gaze on her. This strong gaze even felt eerily familiar.
Su Yanke looked around and found that it was really an acquaintance. Feng Qiuhan on the judge's seat was so excited that she was beaming when she saw Su Yanke looking at her. She was almost about to run directly to Su Yanke to say hello.
The host obviously didn't miss this discovery and began to tease, "It seems that Su Yanke is a powerful contestant. She has even caught the attention of our dance teacher Feng."
The host thought that this would make Feng Qiuhan pay attention to herself and dampen Su Yanke's momentum.
However, Feng Qiuhan had no intention of keeping a low profile. Instead, she stood up directly, walked towards Su Yanke, and directly admitted in front of the audience how excellent Su Yanke was.
The host was completely embarrassed and could only force a smile. He quickly ended this topic and moved on to the next one.
Backstage, the number of viewers skyrocketed because of Su Yanke's appearance.
The director was smiling so widely that his eyes were almost invisible. He quickly contacted the host and the cameraman to give more shots to Su Yanke.
The host was on the verge of tears. He had just wanted to dampen Su Yanke's spirit, but was immediately refuted by Feng Qiuhan. Now he had to set up traps for Su Yanke. He really didn't want to!
But he had to follow the director's request, so he could only bite the bullet. Before he could say anything, Mi Qianqian spoke first.
The host was so relieved that he almost wanted to kowtow to Mi Qianqian to thank her. Mi Qianqian was still a bit afraid of Su Yanke, but thinking that they were under the attention of so many people, she thought that Su Yanke wouldn't dare to confront her now, so she started to cause trouble.
