Before all this had taken place, Chen Yun had still been dealing with the dilemma of how many points she should give Tang Guo. After all, Leng Rui had made it clear that she absolutely could not allow Tang Guo to lose to Lu Qi.

When it came to having to choose between Leng Rui or Leng Ziyue to listen to, of course she would listen to Leng Rui.

Leng Ziyue only managed Galaxy Films, which was just one part of Galaxy Entertainment, while Leng Rui, on the other hand, was in charge of the entire corporation.

Now, she was no longer at a loss as to what she should do. When it came to Tang Guo’s singing abilities, Tang Guo was more than just a tad better than Lu Qi. Giving her a full score was just like going with the crowd’s decision, which worked out for her.

The big boss was just so different. Even this woman he had taken a fancy to was extremely capable.

“I knew I’d get first place, so I’m already over my excitement.”

This answer made everyone feel somewhat frustrated, and they didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

She was really quite an honest one. If it hadn’t been for how good of a singer she was, hearing her talk like that, people would have definitely thought there were some secret dealings going on behind the scenes. The truth was that a secret deal really had taken place, but that little secret deal wasn’t really worth mentioning, considering how talented Tang Guo was.

By the time this episode was aired, the crowd wouldn’t suspect a thing.

Lu Qi was met with the results of the competition when she returned from her walk.

Seeing the rows of perfect scores, she felt a sudden rush of anger. She was so worked up that everything went black, and she fainted.

There were many people around her, all waiting for the results. There were even a handful of reporters.

A few reporters saw Lu Qi collapse and started inventing several stories they could write about it. So, surreptitiously, they snapped pictures of her.

Leng Ziyue found out about this and first helped Lu Qi over to the side so she could take a rest. Then, he walked up to the reporters and looked at them coldly.

Intimidated by his glare, the reporters asked, “Master Leng, is there anything wrong?”

“You guys should know what to write about and what not to.” Leng Ziyue frowned and said, “Qiqi isn’t feeling well today. It hasn’t been easy for her to take part in the competition despite being ill. I hope you guys won’t go about writing baseless reports.”

The group of reporters looked at one another. They didn’t have the kind of backing to where they could write anything they wanted, so when Leng Ziyue gave them such a warning, they didn’t dare to report recklessly.

“Don’t worry, Master Leng. We don’t report just anything. We took these photos on a whim. We hadn’t planned it. I’ll go ahead and delete them right away.”

Though they said all this and were very cooperative, they were actually very unhappy with Lu Qi and Leng Ziyue.

“Why did she get a perfect score?” The first thing Lu Qi did when she woke up was to grab Leng Ziyue and ask, “How could she have possibly gotten a perfect score?

“Ziyue, didn’t you say that you had invited Tong Can and Chen Yun?” Lu Qi was suspicious. “Could it be that someone asked them to make her the winner? Is it that person you’ve told me about, the one who’s keeping Tang Guo as a mistress?”

Leng Ziyue didn’t open his mouth to speak, as he felt that what Lu Qi said made sense.

If it was his father who had done all this, Chen Yun and Tong Can would definitely listen to his father instead of him.

“Qiqi, it doesn’t matter that you lost. You have the capability and strength. Moving forward, you still have many arrangements, so don’t let this affect you so much that it prevents you from performing to your full potential later on.” Leng Ziyue carefully hugged Lu Qi and went on to say, “Once you leave a deep impression on the audience, you’ll be able to produce some songs. Then, finally, you can hold a concert. That’s when everything will fall into place for your success. It’s just a matter of time.”

Lu Qi couldn’t reconcile herself to the outcome. She said, “I’m obviously just as good as Tang Guo, but in the end, I lost to her just like that. Zi Yue, I can’t bring myself to accept this.

“Ziyue, do you think that because I made a mistake in deciding to come back and because I couldn’t let you go, that that caused you to leave Tang Guo? And now, she’s unhappy about it and did all this as a way to get back at me?

“Ziyue, all that she’s taken from me today is first place, which should have been mine. What about the future? Do you think she’ll ever leave me alone?

“She just wants to snatch you away from me.”

When he heard this, Leng Ziyue felt a little tug in his heart. Was that so?
