She felt unjustly accused of being unwell.
Moreover, if Jingsheng really felt that she was not feeling well, why didn’t he give her the finale slot?
Just as Luqi was about to say this, Junjie urged Jiang Xun to prepare quickly, not giving Luqi a chance to continue speaking.
Jingsheng went to look for Qiyao.
“You’re the finale?” Qiyao asked with a smile.
“Yes.” He wanted to say, if you want to see me earlier, then I’ll change to the second slot.
He did not care about the order of going on.
Qiyao knew what he was going to sing.
Jingsheng had already sung it for her.
He claimed to be asking for her opinion, but she didn’t have any professional opinion. She could only hear whether it sounded good or not.
After listening to it, Qiyao felt that it was very nice.
She was looking forward to his performance on stage.
“Then I’ll quickly go to the audience and sit down. I’ll wait for both your performances!” Qiyao said.
“Do you want to watch the entire live show, or do you want to leave after watching our performance?” Jingsheng asked.
Qiyao didn’t tell him that she was coming.
“Of course, I want to watch the whole thing,” Qiyao said. “I specially cleared my time today and didn’t take on any work just to see you guys. After your performances, aren’t you guys going to be giving comments? I want to see that too.”
When he heard Qiyao say that she did not have work today, Jingsheng said, “Then come backstage after the show. Don’t be in a hurry to leave. Let’s go have a meal.”
“Alright,” Qiyao nodded.
Jingsheng then smiled.
Qiyao blushed at his smile and felt a little uneasy. She looked up at him and then averted her gaze. “Well, I’ll go out first.” “Okay.” Jingsheng nodded a little foolishly.
Qiyao turned around and was about to leave when he held her wrist. “Wait.”
Qiyao turned around and subconsciously looked down at her wrist that was being held by him.
Jingsheng felt the warmth of her palm and quickly let go.
When the two of them were filming “My Other Half,” they were even more intimate than they were now.
But at this moment, Jingsheng’s heart was beating faster than before.
“Where are you sitting?” He asked again.
“Do you want to find me during the performance?” Qiyao smiled and said, “When the time comes, only the stage will have lights. The audience seats will be pitch black.”
“Not necessarily. What if I can see you?” Jingsheng smiled and admitted that he really wanted to look for her during the performance.
Qiyao told him her approximate location.
As for the seat number, there might not be an exact picture.
Jingsheng nodded. “Got it.”
Seeing that Jiang Xun had already left, Qiyao chuckled softly. “Great CEO Qin is here too. I wonder if Jiang Jiang knows about this. If she doesn’t know, she would definitely be surprised.”
“She probably doesn’t know about it, I didn’t hear her mention it.” Jingsheng smiled as he looked at Qiyao, who seemed to be enjoying the gossip.
“I’m going to go out now. You should prepare well,” Qiyao hurriedly said to Jingsheng before turning around and running off.
This time, he didn’t grab her again.
When Qiyao ran off, she felt a little disappointed.
When she sat in the first row of the audience, Qiyao was still wondering why she was disappointed.
Could it be that she wanted Jingsheng to catch her again?
Backstage in the lounge, Luqi wondered if Jingsheng had such a good relationship with Qiyao.
Looking at the two of them, there was really a feeling of ambiguity.
However, she didn’t have time to think about this now. She quickly went to find Shixian and asked in a low voice, “Brother Sun, what happened? Weren’t you supposed to secure the finale? How come you didn’t get it and I ended up in second place? I didn’t even get the first performance!”
Shixian’s expression changed again and again before he said, “I didn’t expect Ji Junjie to be so stubborn. I started to talk to him, but he didn’t agree. Then I followed what we had discussed beforehand, saying that you weren’t feeling well and had to move back. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to perform on stage. Under such circumstances, other directors would have agreed. They couldn’t just have no one perform and risk a stage accident, right?”
This was not the first time they had used this move, so they could use it so skillfully and naturally.
It had always worked before.
Who knew that this time, they would encounter such a tough opponent like Junjie.
“Who knew that Ji Junjie said that he was asking if you were going to work with
Feng Videos again because of this finale- He had made it clear that unless he
was not around, you can forget about getting any resources from Feng Videos. But before I could answer, Zhang Qiyao arrived.”
Hearing Qiyao’s name, Luqi’s expression changed slightly. She subconsciously turned to look at Jingsheng, who was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed and his head raised to adjust his state of mind.
Although Jingsheng’s eyes were closed, he felt as if someone was looking at him.
Jingsheng suddenly opened his eyes and actually accurately found the direction of the gaze.
He looked over and saw Luqi and Shixian.
Luqi quickly turned around and stopped looking at him the moment he opened his eyes, almost being discovered by Jingsheng.
Luqi’s heart was still beating fast.
Was Jingsheng that vigilant?
She only glanced at him and did not say anything.
Moreover, Jingsheng was not close to her, so how could he know that she was looking at him?
Fortunately, Luqi turned around in time and heard Shixian say, “When Zhang Qiyao came, Ji Junjie asked her if she could be a mentor. When I heard that, I knew something was wrong. He was basically suggesting that Zhang Qiyao should replace you. I definitely couldn’t agree to that, So I could only give up on the idea of fighting for you.”
“But this way, we ended up at a disadvantage, and Ji Junjie had the upper hand. He didn’t even want to give you the original position of the first act and directly let you be second. You saw Ji Junjie’s attitude just now. He was very determined and there was no room for negotiation. He probably decided not to even let you be the first to appear when we mentioned that you wanted to be the finale,” Shixian said in a low voice.
Luqi gritted her teeth and her mood became particularly bad.
Originally, she wanted to be the finale and show off her status.
However, if it didn’t work, it was fine to keep the first slot.
However, she did not expect Junjie to not give her the chance at all. He had really caught her off guard.
Even Jingsheng was lying through his teeth, insisting that she was not feeling well.
Where did she feel unwell?
Luqi gritted her teeth.
“We underestimated Ji Junjie’s attitude this time,” Shixian said in a low voice. “Looking at Ji Junjie’s attitude, we can’t use our previous methods on him anymore. For this season’s program, you should just participate obediently and don’t cause any more trouble. If something goes wrong, Ji Junjie will probably be even more ruthless than today..”
