Chapter 519: Everybody's brave idol
Everybody cheered for Yukito for a long time. The emcee had a hard time calming down the audience.
Wang Ling was watching Yukito in a stupor. She didn’t realize when tears rimmed in her eyes. She clenched her dress hard, and her lips trembled.
She remembered that day Jing had come to their high school claiming Yukito to be his. At first, she thought it was temporary. How far would a same-sex relationship even go?
She thought that they might have already broken up because Yukito’s relationship never came in the news. There was no gossip about him dating anybody.
But that day, Yukito confessed that he indeed had a special someone. And that person was still the same.
Liu Jing.
He even became a model just to fulfill his wish. He made Jing’s wish his dream.
He loved him that much.
What did I do…why did I have to hurt him like that at that time? If not, then…I could be standing beside him right now. He could have loved me like that.
But no matter how much she regretted it now, she couldn’t change anything now.
On the stage, the emcee announced on the mike. “Thank you, Yukito, for your answer. I think everybody wants to listen to more of your story rather than the results, haha,” he laughed.
Huang Minzhe gritted his teeth.
The audience was more riled up after Yukito’s answer than his. The response was unprecedented!
What the hell is with a man as your lover! That’s disgusting!
But nobody in the audience seemed to have any problem with his relationship. They were even rooting for them so hard.
The emcee said, “Alright! Time for voting the model whose answer you liked the most. Whoever garners the majority wins the competition! So, please keep your voting devices ready. Please press blue if you want to vote for Huang Minzhe and green if you want to vote for Yukito. Let the voting-“
But suddenly a member of the staff came rushing to the stage. He quickly said something in the emcee’s ears.
Everybody was murmuring about what was going on.
The emcee seemed shocked and confirmed it twice with the staff.
Yukito and Huang Minzhe frowned.
What is happening?
Then the emcee finally came to Yukito’s side and said, “Yukito. It seems that you had an accident while doing the ramp walk.”
Huang Minzhe froze.
Even Yukito was surprised.
I told Yang Tian not to let anybody know until the show is over, so why…
“Huh? Yukito had an accident?”
“But wasn’t his ramp walk just perfect?”
“Yeah, there was nothing wrong.”
The emcee said, “Can we please see your right foot?”
Yukito hesitated. “Um…it’s nothing. I am fine.”
It was just that he didn’t want any pity votes. He tried to win solely on his performance and the answer he gave. He didn’t want to play any emotional card on the fans to make them vote for him.
The emcee said, “The Management insists that you please show your foot. It is important for everyone to know here before they cast their vote.”
Yukito pursed his lips. He had no choice.
Huang Minzhe was starting to sweat. It was hard for him to maintain a composed expression on his face.
Yukito pulled his foot out.
Everybody almost stumbled into seeing a bandage under his foot. There was even blood that had stained the dressing.
Jing froze. His heart almost stopped beating to see the wound on his leg.
“Yu-yukito…Yukito!”
He jumped up to dash to his side.
“Stop Jing,” Jinhai said.
“Bro! He is hurt!”
“I know. But calm down and please sit.”
The crowd once again burst into loud discussions.
“Hey! What is that wound?”
“When did Yukito get that!”
The emcee said, “Yukito. Can you please explain when and how you got that wound?”
Yukito got a headache. He really didn’t want anybody to know right now.
“Can I talk about it later?”
But instead of the emcee, all the fans started roaring from their seats.
“No, Yukito! Tell us!”
“When did my idol get hurt?”
“You weren’t hurt before. So why is there is bandage now?”
“Please tell us, Yukito!”
“We will not vote until you give us the answer.”
“Yes! We won’t vote!”
The emcee smiled. “I guess you got no choice now. They refuse to vote until they get their answers.”
Yukito sighed. “I got hurt during the ramp walk. Apparently, there was a pin stuck in my sandal, and it came out as I walked. That pierced my foot, and that’s how I got hurt.”
“What!!!”
Everybody was stunned for a few moments.
“This is horrible!”
“How could a pin get stuck in his sandal?”
“That is so irresponsible of the staff!”
The emcee was taken aback. “So you kept walking despite the stabbing your feet?”
Yukito smiled. “After reaching this far, I couldn’t possibly fail at the ramp walk on the stage where I spent my whole career.”
Silence.
All the fans teared up.
“Yukitooooo!”
The fans were now on the verge of breaking the barrier to rush on the stage, but the security had to hold them down.
“My idol is so brave!”
“That must have hurt so much!”
The emcee said, “Please calm down, everyone.”
“Yukito! Yukito! Yukito!”
Loud cheers resonated in the entire hall. The more everybody shouted Yukito’s name, the more Huang Minzhe grew nervous.
The wave was completely at Yukito’s side.
But this wasn’t all.
It could also bring out suspicions about who planted the pin in his sandal.
The emcee faced Yukito. “We all commend you for doing the ramp walk stage in that condition. This is what the management wanted to clear before the voting began.”
Huang Minzhe clenched his fist.
First his answer and now the ramp walk stage truth!
Who the hell asked that staff to butt in between?
Then he faced the audience. “Let’s start voting!”
Everybody took their voting pads and pressed the button.
A minute later, the emcee said, “Now we will announce the results! The model with the most votes goes to…”
