On the Internet!
“I can smell that something is wrong.”
“^you’re crazy. How can you smell something like that?”
“I feel like Zhao Li is going to take her revenge. This Chen Rui An is really stupid. He actually said so bluntly that he admired Master Lin. Isn’t he just drawing hate to himself?”
“Yeah! Master Lin has never flashed his light before. If Master Lin doesn’t flash his light, probably only Hao Jian Yang would flash the light. No matter what, Zhao Li and Liu Ying Dong will definitely not do it.”
“What is this scheming b*tch trying to do now?”
“She’s going to cause trouble. She’s going to cause trouble for sure.”
…
Lin Fan looked curiously at Zhao Li, wondering what this woman was going to do. However, judging by her expression, she definitely had bad intentions.
Zhao Li cleared her throat. “Chen Rui An, can I ask you something?”
Chen Rui An nodded. Naturally, he recognized Zhao Li because, at the singing competition that he participated in two years ago, Zhao Li had been one of the judges. His heart felt a little uneasy.
“Of course, Teacher Zhao.”
Zhao Li said, “I keep feeling as if I recognize you. Did you participate in ‘Heavenly Male Voice’ two years ago?”
Indeed, after Zhao Li said this, Chen Rui An felt a huge impact in his heart. Those unhappy memories had been dredged up.
Chen Rui An’s parents were watching their son on stage. At this instant, their fists were tightly clenched and their hearts were filled with anxiety. They knew the reason that their son had been depressed for two years but they hadn’t expected anyone else to still remember it. They started feeling worried for their son.
Chen Rui An was silent for a moment before he nodded, “Yes, I didn’t think that Teacher Zhao would still remember me.”
Zhao Li pointed at her head and smiled, “My memory is very good.” Then, she took a glance at Lin Fan before saying in a rather harsh tone, “If it’s you, then I’m sorry. You’re not qualified to stand on this stage.”
Uproar!
When those words were said, everyone at the scene was dumbfounded.
What kind of situation was this?
Where was this leading to?
He hadn’t even sung a single word and she was already telling him to get off the stage. Moreover, her tone was so serious. To them, it seemed a little ridiculous.
The viewers who were watching the live broadcast started discussing maniacally.
“She has started making her move as expected.”
“This is a show of strength to Master Lin. She’s taking her revenge for the previous day’s incident.”
“Why does it feel exactly the same as yesterday? What is the reason behind this?”
“I don’t know. Let’s wait for an explanation.”
Chen Rui An, who was on the stage, had a very uncomfortable look on his face. The blow to his heart was great and he had an urge to cry.
He had persevered through everything in order to come up on stage but he had never expected to be received with such words.
He had already forgotten about the past incidents and he didn’t want to recall them. He wanted even less to have to explain himself.
What was past was past and he just wanted to welcome a new life.
Chen Rui An’s hands, which were holding the microphone, started to tremble. “Teacher Zhao, please give me one more chance.”
Zhao Li didn’t reply immediately. She looked at Lin Fan with a challenging gaze. Then, she said, “Sorry, I can’t give you this opportunity. What you have done in the past will leave a stain on the rest of your life.”
Chen Rui An was at a loss. He really didn’t know what to do anymore. If he tried to explain himself, who would believe him?
Moreover, he really didn’t want to recall those past happenings.
At this moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Fan. He never thought that Teacher Lin would speak up for him at this moment.
Lin Fan let out a smile. “Teacher Zhao, if you’re talking about this stain on his life, you should at least give a reason.”
Zhao Li stayed very calm. She wasn’t anxious at all. She appeared to have something up her sleeve.
“I think everyone wants to know what this contestant has done in the past. Since it’s like this, let me tell you all. This contestant, Chen Rui An, participated in ‘Heavenly Male Voice’ two years ago. During the finals, he stole the other contestant’s original song and it was discovered by Teacher Ying Jin. In the end, he refused to admit his act of theft and was disqualified from the finals. I think if any of our audience has watched that competition, you would still have some memory of this. Otherwise, you can do a search on the Internet and you would be able to find out about this.”
After saying this, the place erupted in an uproar once more.
Some of the audience immediately took out their phones to search it up.
Although it was from two years ago, the Internet still had some information about it.
At this moment, many members of the audience started looking at Chen Rui An and whispering amongst themselves. This made Chen Rui An very uneasy. He lowered his head and closed his eyes. It had been the other contestant who had stolen his original song. However, at this moment, he felt as if he was carrying some kind of unspeakable sin on his shoulders.
Chen Rui An’s parents were heartbroken as they looked at their son on stage. They wanted to go up on stage to take their son away but they resisted this urge.
Zhao Li said, “It’s because of this that I don’t think he has the right to stand on this stage. Stealing someone else’s song during the finals of a competition is unforgivable.”
Lin Fan looked at Chen Rui An, then at Zhao Li. “Oh, Teacher Zhao, how did Ying Jin find out about this back then?”
Zhao Li smiled, “Because Sister Ying decided the song’s tempo back then. She’s considered one of the composers of the song.”
“It seems like that contestant had an exceptional relationship with Ying Jin,” said Lin Fan.
“That’s not exactly the case. It’s just that Sister Ying is kindhearted. She saw a good song and she was delighted, so she decided to take a look at it,” said Zhao Li. Then, she looked at Chen Rui An. “Alright, you can get off the stage now. Tell the next contestant to come up.”
The audience started crying out.
“Go away.”
“Go away.”
“Scram off!”
Chen Rui An lowered his head. His legs felt like they were made of lead and they were incomparably heavy. Hearing the sounds from the audience, he was really at a loss. His heart was being tormented.
“I…I…” He wanted to say something but he had no idea how to say it.
But at that moment, Chen Rui An looked up at Teacher Lin in disbelief. He had not expected that at this moment, Master Lin would speak up.
“Everyone, quieten down now,” Lin Fan held the microphone in his hand and said in a calm and steady voice.
The audience all quietened down and listened closely.
Then, Lin Fan looked at Zhao Li and said helplessly, “Teacher Zhao, as a public figure and a mentor, you’re really too much of a disappointment.”
When he said this, the whole place was shocked.
Zhao Li pointed at Lin Fan in disbelief. “What did you say?”
Lin Fan opened his mouth once again, “I’m saying, why is a woman like you so petty? You’re a public figure and a mentor. How can you be so petty?”
“Let’s not talk about whether that incident was true or not. Two years have already passed, why can’t you give this man another chance?”
“Do you have to bite onto his past and make him leave the stage? To me, for this kid to have the guts to come up on stage again, it is truly brilliant.”
“Who doesn’t make mistakes? If you label him for the rest of his life for one mistake, that isn’t fair. Hence, I hope that Teacher Zhao will open up your narrow mind a little. Only so would you be suitable as a mentor.” Then, he looked over to the audience.
“Don’t you all think that he should be given a chance? And don’t you think that we shouldn’t be so petty?”
The members of the audience looked at each other.
“I think that we should do that.”
“Yeah. Everyone makes mistakes. It’s already been two years and that Zhao Li is still bearing it in her heart. That’s too petty.”
“Master Lin is right. He should be given another chance.”
…
The opinions of the audience had been influenced by Lin Fan once again.
Meanwhile, when Zhao Li heard the audience say that she was petty, she became so furious that she nearly fainted.
