“Not bad… what does that mean?” Yun Wu asked. Lin Shanchu smirked, “That means it’s tolerable.”
Yun Wu’s eyes slightly perked up in surprise.
“Huo Chaosheng is very professional and responsible. My teammates have all made significant progress.” She was the only one who was still “stable” in her performance.
Yun Wu started to relax, “That’s good to hear.”
Lin Shanchu continued, “Anyvvay, once tomorrow’s performance ends, I won’t be interacting with him anymore…”
Lin Shanchu noticed that Yun Wu was gradually easing up as she spoke.
She paused for a moment and changed the topic, “Yun Wu, what are you worried about?”
Yun Wu was caught off guard by Lin Shanchu’s question and was unable to react in time.
She looked at Lin Shanchu in a daze.
“I…” she tried to explain, but as she met Lin Shanchu’s penetrating gaze, she fell silent.
Yun Wu bit her lip, “Can we talk about this after the competition?”
Lin Shanchu had never seen Yun Wu like this.
She looked a little fragile.
She also looked a little helpless.
Lin Shanchu smiled and held Yun Wu’s hand, “It’s okay. We don’t have to talk about it. ”
The reason people may find life meaningful would be because of the connections they have with the world.
The connections that mostly came from friends, family, and loved ones.
Through sharing happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy, from daily meals to gatherings and partings, they perceive the significance of life and develop a sense of nostalgia for the world.
Although so many people roam the world, not everyone could find life meaningful.
And not everyone could share their joy and sorrow with others.
Lin Shanchu herself was a good example.
She struggled to find her meaning in life.
Therefore, she felt that if she departed, she wanted to do it lightly and resolutely since she had nothing else to lose.
However, Yun Wu believed that Lin Shanchu was angry at her because she had hidden something from her.
“Shanshan, I’ll…” Yun Wu began.
“It really doesn’t matter.”
Lin Shanchu interrupted her gently, “Go back and rest. When you’re well-rested, you’ll have the energy to perform well tomorrow.”
Lin Shanchu spoke to her in the same tone as usual.
She was still as soft and as caring.
However, her tone also gave off a sense that she didn’t want to be questioned.
So, Yun Wu had no choice but to leave.
When Lin Shanchu was waiting backstage in her dreamy blue princess cut, many people almost didn’t recognize her.
“Who’s that?”
“The competition is about to start. Why bring in a new guest at this time?”
Lin Shanchu heard the discussions and turned around. “Don’t you recognize me with a different hairstyle?” She joked as she raised her hand to playfully flip her hair.
The hairstylist did a good job.
Dreamy blue was her favorite color.
Suddenly, it felt like deja vu.
Lin Shanchu was met with the familiar scene of the contestants swarming toward her again.
“Oh my god, this color is so beautiful!”
“Princess cut looks amazing! I want to cut it too!”
Lin Shanchu could not move an inch and was forced to stop wherever she was as the contestants studied her hairstyle.
As usual, the live broadcast would have started the moment the contestants entered the waiting area.
Since Lin Shanchu was talking to the contestants with her head lowered, the cameras couldn’t capture her face.
The comments gradually increased. [Hey, did they invite a new female guest this time?]
[Yeah, who’s the one with blue hair?]
The audience who joined the live stream earlier deliberately fooled the newcomers.
[Yes! One of the guests couldn’t make it so they invited a new guest over at the last minute.]
[Although I haven’t seen her face yet, her side profile looks stunning!]
[The new guest’s hairstyle looks fantastic!] The new audience was deceived for a while. Until Lin Shanchu turned around…
[Isn’t that Lin Shanchu?]
[F * ck! I really thought it was a new guest!]
[It’s hard to find someone who could pull off such a dreamy hair color with this hairstyle.]
[Why does this rebellious color and hairstyle still look so obedient on Lin Shanchu? She still looks so elegant!]
[Being beautiful allows her to be capricious. She can do whatever she wants with her hair! ]
Lin Shanchu’s haters were very dedicated. As soon as she appeared, her haters would quickly arrive at the scene.
Haters commented:
[It’s not like there aren’t any female celebrities in the entertainment industry who haven’t dyed their hair blue before. Is there a need to praise her like this?] [If you lack the talent, I guess you can make up for it with your hairstyle.]
[Here to watch Lin Shanchu embarrass herself.]
Lin Shanchu’s fans were too lazy to argue with the haters.
However, their repetitive comments were starting to affect the regular viewers.
The regular viewers weren’t pleased.
[Why don’t you name a few celebrities who look better with blue hair than Lin Shanchu?]
[It’s already the third performance and there are still people saying such things? Can’t they come up with something new?]
[Amongst the people in the audience who came to watch Lin Shanchu this episode, are there any of you who didn’t come to watch her embarrass herself?] [Maybe Lin Shanchu’s fans aren’t here to watch her embarrass herself?] Lin Shanchu’s fans replied: [Thanks for the invitation, but we’re also here to see Sister Rabbit embarrass herself.]
This comment made everyone in the live broadcast room laugh crazily.
[Hahaha, Lin Shanchu’s fans are awesome.]
[Lin Shanchu, the face of human injustice. Hahahahaha!]
The director was pleasantly surprised to find that even though the episode had not officially started, the real-time viewers in the live broadcast already exceeded the number of viewers in the previous episodes.
The most frequent comment in the comment section was ‘watching Lin Shanchu embarrass herself’.
In just a few minutes, the comment ‘watching Lin Shanchu embarrass herself’ had been sent over a thousand times.
At first glance, this phrase seemed malicious.
But the director looked closely and realized that everyone’s ‘watching Lin Shanchu embarrass herself’ comment was followed by ‘Hahaha’ or something of a similar expression.
Thus, it concluded that they had no ill intentions.
The director fell into contemplation.
After producing shows for so many years, it was the first time he encountered this situation.
Could it be that he had been having the wrong approach in his directing all this while?
Compared to witnessing a plot where the character had a complete makeover, did the audience prefer watching the character suffer?
The director fell into self-doubt.
Beside him was an assistant who had just graduated and was around the same age as the contestants.
The director humbly asked the intern, “Do young people not enjoy watching plots with character makeovers nowadays?”
The intern replied, “Of course we do. Plots with character makeovers are exciting! I love watching them.”
“Then why did the real-time viewers increase so much today?”
The intern pondered for a moment and said, “Director, could there be a possibility that it wasn’t about the plot? Maybe… everyone simply just wanted to see Lin Shanchu fail?”
The director scratched the top of his head, “Makes sense.”
Huo Chaosheng rushed backstage just before the official recording began.
The audience in the live broadcast who had all come to see Huo Chaosheng lit up in excitement.
The front stage started its official recording.
Huo Chaosheng walked to the area where Lin Shanchu and her group stood.
He gazed at the backs of a few girls for a moment before finally moving to the front to see their faces.
When he saw Lin Shanchu, he was stunned for a while before he hesitantly called out her name.
“Lin Shanchu?”
