Chapter 6 If you regret it, our deal can be cancelled 3
Time is like a fairy with wings, so fast that it is beyond our control. After much anticipation, the talent show is finally here!
The competition stage was built on the seashore. The azure sea surrounded the beach. On the golden beach stood a huge stage, dazzling like a diamond. Not far away, a large area of lush green palm trees rustled in the breeze.
The stage is semicircular. The stage top is made of transparent glass with lights buried underneath. The background of the stage is a huge steel frame with projection lights installed on it. You can imagine how gorgeous the stage will be when all the lights are turned on. There is a huge screen on the upper left. Even the audience standing on the periphery can see the situation on the stage at a glance through the giant screen. In the center of the stage, a blue crystal arch spans the entire stage, with blue and purple morning glories wrapped around it. It is so beautiful that it makes people feel like they are in a dream. Colorful balloons float above the stage, and a vertical banner hangs down from a huge balloon with the words "The 16th Yadonis Island Talent Competition" written on it.
The talent show is divided into preliminary and final rounds, and today is the preliminary round. But even in the preliminary round, the beach is crowded with people and the voices are loud. The blue sea is almost boiling because of the enthusiasm of the people.
"Song Xiwei! I love you, you are our princess forever!"
"Prince Yi Youxi! All of us in the 'Prince's Guard' swear to support you till death!"
"Miss Isabel! Our Queen, we swear allegiance to you until death!"
…
Before the game started, a large group of fans stood in front of the stage holding signs and banners and shouting loudly. As if they were competing for momentum, each one shouted louder and louder than the other. The deafening shouts were one wave after another, one after another, and continued endlessly.
"Please don't push forward! It will affect the game!"
"Back off! Everybody back off!"
The staff held hands and stood in front of the stage, preventing the fans from breaking through the last "line of defense". The two sides started a fierce tug-of-war.
Several huge black cameras were scanning the air, and several monitors on the sidelines were showing a chaotic scene. Suddenly, a heavily made-up face replaced the scene and appeared on the monitor, almost bursting the small monitor screen.
"I am Emily, the host of Morning Glory TV. Now is the live broadcast of the 16th Yadonis Island Talent Competition. We can see that before the competition even starts, the enthusiasm of the fans is almost boiling the Pacific Ocean! You can imagine how exciting and intense the upcoming talent competition will be..." The female host held the microphone in one hand and waved the other excitedly in the air. Her lips, painted with bright red lipstick, opened and closed at a very high frequency, and saliva flew all over the sky.
The talent show was unexpectedly large in scale, with even a TV station on the island filming it and broadcasting it live on TV stations all over the island.
Oh my god! I'm going to be on TV... This is the first time I've been on TV since I was born... Since I came to Yadonis Island, I've set many firsts! The last time was the first time in my life that I made the headlines in a newspaper... My performance will be filmed and broadcast live on the island's TV station! Then everyone on the island will see me on TV! My grandma must be watching the competition in front of the TV now! I absolutely can't make a fool of myself!
"Ms. Qin, please stop shaking, okay?" The makeup artist stopped and frowned unhappily, holding up a half-finished mascara in one hand.
"Oh, oh...I'm sorry." I pressed my pounding heart and forced myself to calm down. The makeup artist looked at me with a frown and continued to put on my makeup.
A few minutes later, the makeup artist finally finished my makeup and changed me into a youthful and beautiful dress. On top was a tight white T-shirt with an exaggerated black pattern, with a black lace flower pinned on my shoulder, and a fluffy black lace short skirt. She also tied a flower of the same color and style as the one on my shoulder on my wrist, but it was one size smaller, with several black ribbons hanging from the flowers. In line with the theme of youthful and beautiful clothes, my makeup was also youthful and lively - silver-white eyeshadow, pink rouge and pink lip gloss, and my eyelashes were brushed long and curled, and they fluttered when I blinked. It was so cute!
"Okay!" the makeup artist said with a smile as she inserted the mascara into the tube.
"Perfect!" I looked at my perfect self in the mirror and felt more confident! All the audiences would surrender to me! Hahaha——
"Don't be too proud!" A cold voice was like a basin of cold water poured over my head, instantly extinguishing all the flames of my enthusiasm.
I turned around with a frown on my face. I saw Yi Youxi sitting in a corner of the dressing room with his arms folded in front of his chest, looking at me with his blue-purple eyes. His slender left leg was crossed over his right leg. He was always so elegant.
How could he be so calm? Wasn't he nervous at all? It seemed like I was the only one who was nervous... I looked at him depressedly.
After the masterful makeup artist, Yi Youxi was so perfect that he looked like a prince walking out of a painting. His soft blond hair was carefully groomed, and each strand showed the most natural and graceful curve, shining with a golden luster. His deep facial features seemed like a masterpiece created by a sculptor with great effort, so perfect that it was breathtaking. His golden eyelashes were slender and dense, dotted around his blue-purple eyes, making him look more like a perfect painting.
An ivory silk shirt and a pair of white trousers perfectly highlight his elegant and noble temperament.
Wow - so beautiful! I stared at him with my mouth wide open. He was stunningly beautiful at ordinary times, but now he was even more stunning. At first glance, I felt as if my chest was hit hard!
"The competition is about to begin! Please prepare yourselves! Repeat again! The competition is about to begin..." A bass voice came out from the radio accompanied by a buzzing noise. The noise outside suddenly quieted down, and the talent competition finally got on track.
"Go out." Yi Youxi stood up from the chair, pushed open the door of the locker room and walked out.
"Wait for me!" I hurriedly tidied my appearance in the mirror and hurried to follow.
At the competition site, all the audience sat in their seats, waiting for their idols to appear with their eyes wide open. Tens of thousands of seats were all occupied. At a glance, there were only a sea of heads, and several cameras were still sweeping in the air, with one aimed at the stage.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a short bald host walked onto the stage with a lewd smile on his round face. He was wearing a black suit and a big red bow tie around his neck, looking like a circus host...
I look so miserable, I am really sorry for the audience! My mouth twitched, and I followed Yi Youxi to sit down in the first row of the audience. The other contestants had already taken their seats next to us.
"Dear audiences here, and in front of the TV! The 16th Talent Competition of Yadonis Island is now officially beginning!" The host raised his short arms and waved them passionately in the air.
There was a sparse applause from the audience. I couldn't help curling my lips and clapping along with the other audience members. Why didn't they hire a more handsome host? It was really disappointing.
"Now let me introduce today's contest judges!" The bald host stretched out his hand and pointed to a row of seats on the left side of the stage. The camera lens immediately turned in that direction, and the huge LCD screen on the upper left side of the stage also showed a collective close-up of the judges.
"First, let's have the host of the Yadonis Island Music Channel - Julie!" With the host's high-pitched voice, a woman in her 40s, wearing a gorgeous dress and a fox fur shawl, stood up and waved to everyone charmingly.
Yadunis Island Music Channel? This island has quite a wide range of TV stations!
"Next is the director of the Yadonis Island Opera House - Hermann!" A man in his 50s stood up and nodded to everyone expressionlessly.
Now that we have invited all the professionals, it seems I have to put in even more effort in my performance!
"Next is the principal of Yadonis Island!" As soon as the host finished introducing him, the principal immediately jumped up from his seat, put on a flattering smile, waved his arms to greet everyone, and made a "V" gesture to the camera.
"The last one is the proud son of heaven, the second young master of Hang Group - Young Master Hang Weicheng!" Amid warm applause, Hang Weicheng sat on the judges' bench and glanced at everyone coldly. With messy black hair, a black suit as mysterious as the night, and sharp eyes, Hang Weicheng sitting on the judges' bench was more dazzling than any star.
What? My mouth dropped open. Why is that brat sitting on the judges' panel? Is this a mistake?
Suddenly, Hang Weicheng, who had been looking at something coldly, turned his head and met my gaze. A meaningful smile slowly emerged on his handsome face, sending chills down my spine. But in the gap between my blinks, he turned his head away again, as if he had never seen me.
I have a bad feeling, a very bad feeling!
"Yi Youxi! Did you see that? That kid Hang Weicheng is actually sitting on the judges' panel. We are in big trouble now!" I pulled Yi Youxi's sleeve, pointed in the direction of Hang Weicheng, and shouted loudly.
"I saw it." Yi Youxi responded calmly, as if he was talking about the weather. There was no trace of surprise on his perfect face.
"This vengeful kid will definitely seize this opportunity to take revenge on us severely!" I was so anxious that I really wanted to rush up and pull that kid Hang Weicheng off the judges' seat!
My sixth sense tells me that with that guy here, this game will definitely lose fairness!
"You're overreacting." Yi Youxi turned his head and gave me a fearless smile. "As long as we perform well, even if Hang Weicheng doesn't score high, there will be other judges who will give us high scores. So don't worry too much, just perform with your heart!"
That makes sense! How could I lose my composure because of that kid Hang Weicheng? With him as a judge, I must show my best form! I, Qin Xiaoya, will not be defeated by anyone!
