Chapter 140: Chapter 133: We’re Family, and You’d Even Fool Your Own Family?

Ji Xizhi deftly adjusted the microphone towards her mouth.

However, when answering, she wasn’t addressing the host, but the audience below the stage.

Ji Xizhi: “Did everyone understand today? Did you remember to be cautious of scams?”

The audience below the stage responded enthusiastically, “Remembered!”

Of course, mixed among them were a few deliberately teasing voices, “Didn’t get it, can you repeat it for us?”

Ji Xizhi wasn’t annoyed; she willingly replied, “Sure, but not right now. Everyone can pay attention to the broadcasts around your homes later on; the village has arranged to broadcast storytelling sessions, everyone can bring friends and family to listen together!”

“Great!!!”

Upon hearing that there would be more to listen to in the future, everyone immediately became excited again.

After asking the audience, Ji Xizhi then turned to face the host.

“My expectations have been met!”

Host: “…?” So your expectation was purely for the promotional effect, right?

He even felt his next sentence could start pushing the broadcast product.

However, after glancing at Ji Xizhi standing beside him, he held back again.

[Too excellent hahaha, Host: I can’t do this job anymore!]

[Zhi Zhi: First? Competition? Ah, it’s still a competition? I totally forgot!]

[Blindly betting on this group to be first!]

[Need a bet?]

Fans were amused by the host’s expression and laughed continuously.

On stage, the host really couldn’t continue the interview and, unable to help but laugh and cry, had Ji Xizhi’s team leave the stage.

All five groups of guests finished their performances, and the next step was to vote.

Every villager present had a vote, and the program with the most votes would become the champion of this stage performance, receiving a million-dollar prize to support the continued development of Lishui County.

The host animated the atmosphere on stage while the program staff counted the votes.

Ji Xizhi led her team off from the stage exit, and as soon as she got down, the other few guests who had already finished performing quickly gathered around her.

Sheng Yaoyao covered her chest, her face full of relief, “That was too dangerous just now, Zhi Zhi, you scared us! Lucky for your skill!”

Bai Xing and Qin Yutian’s eyes had already started to sparkle, Bai Xing jumped forward, stepping briskly up to Ji Xizhi.

“Sister Zhi Zhi, I have a song that I want to invite you to record with me, not sure if…”

Bai Xing’s words weren’t finished before Zhu Xiu’an forcefully squeezed him aside.

Zhu Xiu’an pushed Qin Yutian forward, turning around saying to Bai Xing, “Bro, cooperation goes in order! Let Little Qin go first!!!”

Bai Xing: “? I was first to speak!”

He clutched Zhu Xiu’an’s shoulder a bit urgently!

CP can’t be hyped, can still record a song?

Today, this first collaboration opportunity with Ji Xizhi, he must seize it, the rap lyrics are already conceived!

Seeing the two fighting over her, Ji Xizhi politely declined, “I can’t sing.”

Zhu Xiu’an: “?”

Bai Xing: “?”

Zhu Xiu’an stiffened his neck and shouted, “We even have a group! We’re family, you’re fooling your own family?”

Bai Xing hadn’t even managed to reply, when surprised amazement came from Director Wang behind.

“Group? What group? What family?!”

Director Wang walked over in confusion.

Zhu Xiu’an’s arrogant neck shrunk back immediately, retreating like an ostrich.

“No, not much!”

[With Zhu Xiu’an acting like this, really feels like there’s some shady business!]

[True, I know they have a group, but such caution around Director Wang, must be something they dare not say openly in the group!]

Fans boldly speculated.

On site, Director Wang felt something odd after hearing Zhu Xiu’an’s evasion, he wanted to follow up but was stopped by Ji Xizhi speaking up.

Ji Xizhi first arranged to speak with Qin Yutian and Bai Xing later and she walked up to Director Wang to inquire about the lighting issues.

–

After the stage ended, small groups of people began to leave.

Zhong Yulu stood on the other side of the program team, her face even paler.

Partly cold, partly angry.

Angry for personally handing a central spot to Ji Xizhi.

Initially, Ji Xizhi was just a supporting role in the stage performance, beautiful, but not the lead. If Ji Xizhi’s group ended up first, the only boast would be Ji Xizhi’s team-leading ability, she herself had no strength to brag about.

Now it’s great, Ji Xizhi’s rescue operation instantly made her the stage’s highlight.

Zhong Yulu began to regret infinitely inside.

She originally just wanted to disrupt the stage’s continuity by taking advantage of the blackout to ensure her team would earn the first spot.

After all, the stage’s main performers in Ji Xizhi’s group were villagers, for such first-time stage performers, the mindset is most unstable, with a very high likelihood of facing a lighting failure, they wouldn’t be able to continue and collapse.

And the lighting issue had possibly occurred during the earlier stage tests, it was the opportunity given by heavens for her, the opportunity to clinch first place.

Zhong Yulu calculated very well but didn’t account for Ji Xizhi’s responsive capability.

Clearly, Ji Xizhi was someone with almost no stage experience before, how did she have this decisive control ability!

Zhong Yulu furrowed her brows tightly, feeling a vague sense that things started to exceed expectations, gradually becoming odd.

Ji Xizhi’s transformation is really too big.

But at this moment, Zhong Yulu also had no time to think more.

After the show, all guests would gather together, if she didn’t show up now, regardless of whether she was the one who caused the power outage, fans would speculate it’s on her head.

Zhong Yulu’s actions were swift, pulling her hood over and keeping her head down, moving through the crowd.

Just as she walked to the center of the guests, Zhong Yulu heard Ji Xizhi talking to Director Wang.

Ji Xizhi: “It really needs a good check; if something actually happened, it wouldn’t be just a lawsuit resolution!”

Director Wang nodded, “Okay, I’ll contact someone immediately for a thorough investigation.”

The two spoke earnestly.

Zhong Yulu standing not far away started feeling a chill down her spine listening.

What does that mean? Are they planning to check on her?

What lawsuit! Ji Xizhi might even be planning to sue her?

Emotion of fear surged in Zhong Yulu’s heart.
