Chapter 7: Why do you give us zero points? You are clearly seeking revenge 1
Hang Weicheng put down the sign, his handsome face covered with a layer of frost.
This bastard! I angrily rushed to the edge of the stage, pointed at Hang Weicheng on the judges' table and asked loudly: "Hang Weicheng, why did you give us zero points! You are clearly seeking revenge!" I knew that this guy would never let us off easily, but I didn't expect him to be so ruthless. He actually gave us zero points in front of so many audiences and other judges! Oh my god - I was so angry!
Hang Weicheng raised his eyebrows, looking calm, as if what he did was natural. "Because I don't like your performance, your performance makes me feel very disgusted! Is this a sufficient reason?" He folded his hands on the table, leaned forward, and told me clearly. His eyes were sharp, especially when he looked at Yi Youxi, and he was full of provocation. The smug smile on his lips seemed to be announcing his victory.
Yi Youxi turned his face away coldly, and his blue-purple eyes turned deep into dark blue.
"Sufficient! Sufficient! This reason is absolutely sufficient!" The host rushed to me and said loudly, "Since Master Hang didn't like the performance of the 23rd group of contestants, the final score of the 23rd group of contestants is 30 points!"
Hang Weicheng put down his hand and leaned back in his chair. His midnight eyes stared at me, and the evil smile on his face grew bigger and bigger... like a dark vortex, sucking me into the hell of no return bit by bit.
This bastard! He is definitely the most despicable and shameless person in the world! I stood on the stage with my fists clenched, and I didn't feel any pain when my nails dug into my palms. The gorgeous stage under my feet was like an ice cellar, causing the warmth in my body to disappear bit by bit.
Damn it! Am I going to be eliminated from the preliminary round just because of that bastard Hang Weicheng? Am I going to lose this chance to leave Yadunis Island?
I knew the competition was unfair, but I couldn't do anything about it.
The lights above the stage were too dazzling and hurt my eyes. My eyes felt sore... I couldn't help but want to cry.
Suddenly, a warm and thick hand gently held my cold and stiff hand. Just like a slow fire melting ice and snow bit by bit...my body gradually recovered.
I looked up and saw a pair of violet-like enchanting eyes staring at me. "The result is still uncertain." Yi Youxi's voice was cold but firm. The beautiful face was a little dazzling under the light.
"It's impossible to advance... We got zero points..." I held my head, my mood fell to the bottom, and I couldn't see a glimmer of hope. Even if the previous contestants performed poorly, none of them got zero points. Hang Weicheng was determined to force us into a desperate situation. He said that I would never win, and he kept his word. I'm done this time...
Yi Youxi didn't say anything, but pulled me off the stage. We sat in the first row of the audience and waited for the results with the other contestants. The judges gathered together and talked a lot, and the other contestants clenched their fists and were sweating with nervousness. I almost gave up hope, so the results were meaningless to me.
After several minutes of heated discussion, the host finally walked onto the stage holding an envelope with the result written on it, and everyone waited with bated breath.
"Now I'm going to announce the contestants !" The host stood in the center of the stage and announced with a smile, "Contestant No. 2 Miss Isabel, Contestant No. 16 Miss Song Xiwei..."
I'm done, I'm done... I sat in the audience, shrouded in a dark cloud. Under the shadow of Hang Weicheng, my future was dark, and I couldn't see a ray of light!
"The 23rd group of contestants - Qin Xiaoya and His Highness Yi Youxi!" The host's voice seemed to have traveled across a light year, and penetrated my dark world like a beam of miraculous light.
The number "23" was like a meteorite, instantly smashing the barrier that isolated me in the darkness!
Number 23? I opened my eyes wide and stood up in confusion: "Did I hear it right? Number 23?"
"We advanced." Yi Youxi glanced at me with a faint smile on his lips.
I actually made it to the next round! Although Hang Weicheng gave us zero points, the first three judges gave us full marks, so our total score was still high enough to make it to the finals.
It was incredible! "Wow! I made it!" I jumped up and down on the stage, cheering loudly with the other contestants who made it. There was a commotion on and off the stage, and the whole beach was almost boiling.
"Hmph!" Hang Weicheng stood up from the judges' seat, put his hands in his trouser pockets, glanced coldly at the stage, and turned to leave.
Humph! He almost made me get eliminated from the competition, and he actually thought he could just walk away so easily!
"Stop - Hang Weicheng!" I leaped off the stage rushed to him like a gust of wind, and blocked his way.
"What can I do for you?" He tilted his head with a provocative smile on his face.
"Hang Weicheng! A real man should be open and honest. What's your intention in being so mean to me?" I pointed at his nose and asked angrily. This villain, does he know how to write the word "gentleman"?
"Then what do you want me to do?" He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, ignoring my anger as if it were air. He looked like he really deserved a beating. If I had less self-control, I would definitely punch him and break his proud nose!
"Put aside personal grudges and score fairly and impartially! Please respect the game!" I put down my hands, glared at him and said loudly.
"Okay!" Unexpectedly, he agreed readily.
Did I hear correctly? He said yes so readily! I blinked my eyes, confused.
He leaned down and looked into my eyes, his whole face almost touching my nose. I stared at him blankly, and saw him showing an evil smile, so evil and beautiful that it made me dazed.
He smiled and said to me: "In tomorrow's final, I will definitely give you a satisfactory score, I promise!" After that, he put his hands in his trouser pockets, whistled, and walked away. He looked in a very good mood.
I was still standing there, confused. Was he kidding me? Why else would he be so obedient and promise me a satisfactory score?
After thinking for a long time, I came to a conclusion - he was just kidding me!
