Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend - Chapter 612

Chapter 612: Chapter 612 Black Pineapple, Frosty Wild Goose Frozen Silver…

As Chu Youwei stepped off the stage, the atmosphere inside the venue didn’t diminish; on the contrary, it soared to new heights.

Because the last one was An Nuonuo!

The female blogger with the highest popularity online, and the only one whose female fans outnumbered the male fans.

Countless people were eagerly anticipating An Nuonuo’s appearance.

So when Liu Yan said she had something to announce, some people in the audience were very impatient, even cursing under their breath.

Liu Yan pretended not to hear and kept her smile unchanged, “It’s thanks to everyone’s support that we could make this competition so explosive.

Therefore, after discussing with the organizers, we decided to change next Saturday’s second round of competition into a ‘Thank You Dinner’ event.

We will draw two hundred lucky audience members from the internet to participate in the dinner.

All the school beauties who advanced in today’s round will be there.

And the way to participate in the lucky draw is very simple, just spend one yuan on the official website to enroll.

A person can sign up to ten times.”

The previously impatient crowd, upon hearing these words, nearly leapt up in excitement.

Dining with dozens of school beauties!

The temptation was simply too great.

And the most one would need to spend was just ten yuan.

If one got chosen, wouldn’t it be exhilarating?

Jiang Xu greatly admired the Mei Family’s business acumen.

Capitalizing on the popularity of the competition, they managed to add a so-called ‘Thank You Dinner’ event.

First, they could collect a hefty sum of registration fees and shear a wave of leeks once again.

Second, by extending the duration of the competition, with more heat and traffic, naturally more money followed.

Jiang Xu suddenly felt sorry for these netizens, being toyed with by capital and clapping along.

Luckily, he himself was also part of the capital.

“Okay, now let’s welcome the last contestant to the stage. The pride of Jiang Cheng City—Miss An Nuonuo!”

Under the shine of spotlight beams, An Nuonuo, clad in a white long dress, with subtle makeup, her features picturesque, and her demeanor gentle as water, walked out in a graceful manner.

Silence!

The venue fell eerily quiet!

A pair of eyes were fixed intently on An Nuonuo.

If Chu Youwei’s entrance was like an ignited star, then An Nuonuo’s entrance was like a bright moon.

Brighter than the stars, but not blinding in the least.

Backstage, everyone was also watching An Nuonuo.

Some admired, some envied.

Zhou Qingyue watched the scene emotionlessly, and no one knew what was going through her mind.

Chu Youwei’s face was full of pride.

This was her sister!

Having been alone for many years, upon finding out she had a sister who was very kind, it was like a fishing boat adrift at sea finally seeing a port.

With the children from the orphanage rescued, she had no more worries.

For the rest of her life, all she needed to do was to repay Jiang Xu, to return his kindness.

Even if… Jiang Xu wanted her, she would not refuse.

After An Nuonuo went to college, she even learned to dance.

After persisting for over a year, her dance skills had become impressive.

However, she never thought of performing in front of strangers.

Her dance was meant for Jiang Xu’s eyes only.

For today’s grand finale, she merely stood on stage, quietly singing an old song.

“Like You”.

“Black pineapple, that frosty wild goose frozen in silver…”

An Nuonuo’s Cantonese was rather average, her pronunciation not particularly standard.

But her voice was beautiful, and overall, it was very good, even bringing a touch of cuteness and playfulness.

No one in the audience was going to pick that apart.

It was evident from the way everyone looked at An Nuonuo with affection.

After her song ended, the venue erupted in thunderous applause.

All the judges unanimously gave perfect scores.

They had all received orders from above.

Even if An Nuonuo sang out of tune, they still had to award full points.

Online, topics with the three words ‘An Nuonuo’ saw an increase of hundreds of thousands within minutes.

“Miss An Nuonuo, please wait a moment,” Liu Yan came back on stage and stopped An Nuonuo, smiling, “Thank you, Miss An, for your wonderful performance.

The voting on the internet will now commence, and everyone can take out their phones to vote in support on our official website.

Voting will last for twenty minutes.

Now, please, all contestants come back on stage for a group sing-along.”

A large screen displayed the names of all contestants.

Underneath were the vote counts.

As soon as the official voting started, the numbers immediately began to change.

The Plato representing An Nuonuo quickly amassed votes, ranking second in speed.

First place was Chu Youwei, followed by Zhou Qingyue, Yun Xi…

However, after just a few seconds, An Nuonuo surged to the top, quickly climbing to the first position.

And the gap between her and the others grew significantly in an instant.

“In just a moment, Nuonuo’s votes exceeded ten million,” Jiang Xu chuckled lightly.

The others, even Chu Youwei, had barely passed the one million mark.

As time passed, not only did the gap not decrease, but it continued to widen.

It goes without saying for the rest.

This School Beauty Contest was essentially just everyone else setting the stage for An Nuonuo.

One by one, they turned into bones, helping An Nuonuo build an invincible throne.

But everyone else’s morale was actually still okay.

During the semi-finals, they had already realized the gap between themselves and An Nuonuo.

So their goals were now set on second to tenth place.

During the performance, Zhou Qingyue took the chance to glance at her vote count while turning around.

Her eyelids twitched wildly at the sight.

Instead of the expected second or third place, she found herself in fifth!

Second place went to Chu Youwei, third to Yun Xi, and fourth to Ning Rongrong.

Zhou Qingyue’s sight went dark as she nearly fainted on the spot.

To her dismay, she had fallen behind a group of amateurs!

It was one thing to lose to An Nuonuo, but being surpassed by the others was too much for Zhou Qingyue; she broke down right there and then.

“Hmm?” Jiang Xu frowned slightly, “Something’s not quite right.”

Logically, with Zhou Qingyue’s talent, even if something unexpected occurred, she shouldn’t have fallen out of the top three.

Not to mention, Zhou Qingyue actually had more fans online than An Nuonuo.

After all, An Nuonuo only had headlines every day, while Zhou Qingyue also had Weibo.

“Could it be that because of the last incident, she’s being suppressed by the Mei Family, intentionally making her look foolish?” Jiang Xu thought to himself.

Then he checked the internet.

Zhou Qingyue’s fans were fiercely canvassing votes for her online.

Yet, the gap between her votes and the others’ kept widening.

And her ranking had fallen to more than tenth place.

Clearly, Jiang Xu’s guess was right.

This was a lesson for Zhou Qingyue.

And if Zhou Qingyue ended up ranking below those amateurs, it would definitely be a huge blow to her career.

Jiang Xu wasn’t concerned about her career per se, but Zhou Qingyue was making money for him.

Nobody should get in the way of his earnings.
