Chapter 171: The Wire Lost Control

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Boom!

It was as if someone’s heartstrings had suddenly broken. Jian Tan’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He turned his head, but his body seemed to be frozen!

When he saw Xia Wei, who was in midair, being pulled by the wires on her right waist and sent flying uncontrollably, Jian Tan’s scalp went numb. His rapid steps seemed to be thousands of kilograms heavy. The spotlights behind him tried to catch up to him, but they failed.

Jian Tan’s movements were extremely fast. For a few moments, he felt that he was about to grab the corner of Xia Wei’s clothes, but the clothes that gently brushed past his fingertips looked very naughty.

This difference of one step made it impossible for him to hold Xia Wei’s uncontrollable figure!

Hence, in the next second, Jian Tan pounced on Xia Wei without thinking. He grabbed Xia Wei’s wide sleeve, and the opposite force from the wire rope pulled the two of them a few meters away.

Just as Xia Wei was about to hit the wall at the back of the stage, Jian Tan suddenly exerted strength, leaned back, and stood still.

Xia Wei’s upper body froze in midair uncontrollably, but her body below her waist swayed a few times with the swaying rope.

Feeling a piercing pain from her waist, Xia Wei’s facial features, which were focused by the dim light, instantly turned pale. Then, she lost the strength to speak.

Xia Wei knew that Jian Tan had pulled her back despite the danger he was in, but she was in so much pain that she was about to faint. Jian Tan’s hand that was holding onto her clothes did not let go. In the next moment, she even felt her fingers being grabbed by a warm and broad palm.

“Lower the wires! Are you all blind?”

Jian Tan had long thrown his microphone away. He shouted at the director to lower the wires quickly. He did not let go of Xia Wei’s hand. His face was so dark that water could be squeezed out!

The first to realize that something was wrong was Wei Dong, who had been standing beside Jian Tan.

At first, he could not understand why Teacher Jian Tan did not stand in his position and actually ran back like a lunatic. However, when he followed Jian Tan’s running trajectory and looked over, he was so shocked that he stood rooted to the ground. Then, he immediately chased after them!

There were supposed to be five performers on the same level on the stage, but two of them suddenly ran away for no reason. It was difficult for the audience not to notice.

Today was the live-stream night of [Our Voice]’s finals, and [Heartthrob TA] had always been live-streaming. Hence, when Jian Tan and Wei Dong chased after Xia Wei, whose tracks were very chaotic, to the back of the stage, they were directly live-streamed by these two programs for everyone to see!

The director was already stunned. Zhao Ying, who had been sitting behind the monitor, widened his eyes and felt that he was going crazy. He casually threw away the communicator in his hand and strode into the wires control console behind the stage.

“What’s wrong with your production team? Hurry up and lower the wires! Xia Wei is still up there!” Zhao Ying roared sternly. When he looked at the event location staff who were controlling the wires, his eyes were so red that they seemed to be on fire!

The staff was also stunned by this sudden situation. He shook the controller of the wires twice meaninglessly. When he realized that there was still no reaction, he was about to cry. “The wires seem to have lost control. I can’t lower her down! Director Zhao, can you wait a moment? I’ll see what the problem is!”

Li Xian rushed into the control room after Zhao Ying.

He heard the staff’s anxious and helpless voice. He took a deep breath and suggested, “Why don’t you turn it off and restart it! Try to see if you can lower her down. You’d better move quickly because the live-stream on the stage is still going on. The audience all over the country is watching your production team!”

The staff member sweated profusely when he heard that, but he forced himself to remain calm and nimbly restarted the machine. This move was indeed effective.. Listening to the operating sound of the machine again, the staff member seemed to have come back to life!
