Chapter 74: Worst Performance Ever

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Shanchu instantly understood.

The red blind box was a trap.

How could the director arrange a mystery prize for her?

It was undoubtedly a mystery trap!

Yu Weixin saw that Lin Shanchu was still not moving, so he reminded, “Let’s see what this mystery prize is.”

Lin Shanchu opened the blind box.

She took out a piece of paper.

Yu Weiwei handed her the microphone.

Lin Shanchu looked at the words on the note and silently ground her teeth before she began to read.

“Congratulations on winning ‘Death of the Universe’ as the song of your performance.”

The moment her voice fell…

The atmosphere at the scene became subtle.

Yu Weixin glanced in the direction of the director.

Even Huo Xunzhou was looking at the director coldly.

The director shuddered at the look in Huo Xunzhou’s eyes.

He turned to his assistant and said, “Why is Mr. Huo looking at me like that? Does he think that I designed this part very well?”

The assistant looked troubled before replying tentatively, “Could it be possible that he looked at you like that because he wanted to stab you?”

The director was speechless.

The assistant continued, “The song ‘Death of the Universe’ has a fast rhythm, constant movements, and requires a huge amount of stamina. It’s a test of Lin Shanchu’s foundation in dance. If she can perform it well, her performance will be the most explosive out of all 15 performances, but if she screws up…”

Lin Shanchu was indeed not the strongest among the members.

The director replied, “It depends on Lin Shanchu if she can perform the dance well or not. I’m only responsible for creating difficulties for her and raising the audience’s expectations.”

If the audience was looking forward to it, wouldn’t the viewership ratings be

stable?

The assistant was speechless.

Meanwhile, Yu Weixin tried to ease the atmosphere.

“Lin Shanchu is really lucky to have drawn the song, “Death of the Universe”, that everyone wants!”

“Death of the Universe” was the first out-of-the-comfort-zone performance that ROF, a boy group that was popular across Asia, had performed.

They had hired a professional dance instructor to choreograph a dance for the boy group.

It was a classic.

When the performance was being played earlier, many members wanted to challenge “Death of the Universe”.

After all, many of them were professionals.

With Lin Shanchu’s broken and battered body, she might be able to perform it if she were to put her life on the line.

But she didn’t want to risk her life.

She could only die after Lu Shiyuan was gone.

Lin Shanchu took a deep breath. There was no way she could smile.

She might as well give up on maintaining her gentle persona.

“Can I not accept this grand prize?” she asked, already giving up.

Yu Weixin was speechless.

Lin Shanchu would be hated even more after this.

However, he was a person who knew how to repay one’s kindness.

Lin Shanchu had helped him before, so he could not just watch Lin Shanchu get scolded.

Yu Weixin gave Lin Shanchu a look before he started to work on saving her pride. “Why? Are you trying to compete fairly with everyone?” Lin Shanchu replied, “No. That’s because I don’t think I can perform this dance. ”

The haters in the live broadcast room finally found a way to criticize Lin Shanchu.

The comments were filled with negativity.

[Trash will always be trash!]

[I’m laughing so hard right now! The production crew gave away the best song to Lin Shanchu, but it turns out that she’s the type who’ll betray all of your expectations!]

[Many members dream of dancing to “Death of the Universe”! Why must Lin Shanchu be the one having it?]

[I’m calling it right now – the worst performance during the first public showdown will go to Lin Shanchu!]

Yu Weixin was speechless. Was his hint not obvious enough?

It was over. Lin Shanchu would get scolded even more this time.

Sigh!

Yu Weixin sighed in his heart, but he still had to go through the process.

“The rules of the production crew can’t be changed. There will be a blind box selection segment for every episode in the future.”

Can’t be changed?

Lin Shanchu smiled and looked at the director not far away. “Thank you for the production crew’s arrangement. I’ll do my best.” The director hugged himself tightly in silence.

Why did young people nowadays look so scary?

Mr. Huo was a man. It was fine for him to have a strong aura since he had experienced a lot in his lifetime.

Lin Shanchu was just a young woman, but to think that she was this scary as well…

Yu Weixin continued with the process.

“Next, Mr. Huo will announce the rankings of the last two members.” Huo Xunzhou did not look at the script. Instead, he picked up the microphone.

All the members held their breaths in anticipation.

The camera kept alternating between Lin Shanchu and Xia Jinmeng.

Xia Jinmeng raised her chin slightly while looking quite proud of herself.

Lin Shanchu played with the blind box without any expression.

The comments flooded the screen.

[Look at Lin Shanchu’s miserable expression. She looks so funny.]

[The pretty lady is sad. I can’t help but pity her.]

[The real sadness will come in the future. This is just the beginning. What a useless trash!] “Congratulations, Xia Jinmeng…” Huo Xunzhou paused.

He glanced at Lin Shanchu.

The dramatic director gave Lin Shanchu a close-up shot.

That shot made Huo Xunzhou’s eyes seem like they were filled with regret.

The commenters started speculating.

[What’s going on? Isn’t Lin Shanchu number one?]

[Xia Jinmeng and Lin Shanchu are just the pot calling the kettle black. Neither of them is worthy of first place!]

[Although I don’t like Xia Jinmeng either, she’s at least capable.] [Are you talking about her capability during the theme song assessment?]

Huo Xunzhou cooperated with the production crew by leaving everyone hanging for a long time before continuing, “On getting number two this episode. ”

Xia Jinmeng’s smile froze on her face.

The members who were ready to clap and congratulate her didn’t dare to say anything. They clapped their hands to congratulate Xia Jinmeng for a bit before going silent.

Huo Xunzhou’s eyes fell on Lin Shanchu’s face again.

“Lin Shanchu, congratulations.”

He lowered his voice at the end, his magnetic and pleasant voice showing a gentleness that was different from his aloof expression.

The camera panned across Huo Xunzhou’s face.

Everyone’s focus was on Lin Shanchu getting first place.

Therefore, no one noticed anything amiss with Huo Xunzhou.

Ran Zimo patted Lin Shanchu’s shoulder while saying, “You’re so awesome!”

Yun Wu did not say anything. She just clapped her hands with all his might.

In the midst of the applause, Lin Shanchu finally reacted.

Did she obtain first place?

Were there really so many people who liked her and were willing to vote for her?

Or could it be like the student meet-and-greet, where Tang Qidai had secretly hired someone to do her a favor and deliberately set her up?

Who didn’t want to be liked and recognized?

She was happy to get first place.

However, she felt that it was not real at all.

She had been living in the abyss all these years.

Day after day, she did all she could to survive in the ruins.

Nothing nice would ever happen to her.

Therefore, her initial reaction to getting first place was not joy, but self-doubt.

The rankings were announced.

Next was the song selection and team formation.

Lin Shanchu didn’t need to choose anymore, so she held the “Death of the Universe” sign and waited at the side.

After everyone had chosen their songs, it was time to group up.

Yun Wu and An Youyun’s groups were the most popular.

An Youyun had a good temper and was popular, so it would definitely be very harmonious to form a team with her.

Yun Wu was powerful, not to mention she taught people free of charge.

Their groups were soon filled up.

Even Xia Jinmeng’s group had three people.

Only Lin Shanchu was still alone.

No one was willing to form a group with her.

“Death of the Universe” was too difficult.

Everyone felt that she had a weak foundation and wouldn’t be able to dance well. Therefore, she would end up dragging her group down..
