"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!" the staff member hurriedly apologized, bending down to pick up the folder.
Ruan Feng was seething with anger, ready to lash out, but then he caught sight of a USB drive that had fallen out of the folder. His expression instantly darkened even more. He didn't have time to scold the staff member and quickly bent down to retrieve it.
However, it was too late.
The USB drive bounced a few times on the ground before rolling to the center of the stage. Xie Mi was quick-witted and grabbed the USB drive, holding it high and speaking into the camera, "Oh, what's this? It seems very important!"
The audience in the live stream erupted, and comments flooded in like a waterfall:
"What is this thing?"
"Could it be Ruan Feng's dirty laundry?"
"Sister Xie Mi is so brave!"
Director Niu also realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly signaled for the staff to pause the live stream.
However, it was all too late.
Just a second before the staff pressed the pause button, the contents of the USB drive had already appeared on the large screen of the live stream.
It was a series of videos and recordings documenting Ruan Feng's years of using unscrupulous means to suppress his peers and exploit newcomers. The videos showed Ruan Feng's behavior starkly contrasting with his carefully crafted image of being virtuous and talented; they were filled with scheming and malice.
The live stream instantly exploded with comments, overwhelming Ruan Feng like a tsunami.
"Oh my God! Is this really Ruan Feng?"
"I can hardly believe my eyes!"
"This is disgusting! I never expected him to be this kind of person!"
Director Niu's face turned pale as he urgently directed the staff to shut down the live stream. However, the contents of the USB drive had already been recorded and were rapidly spreading across the internet.
The Live Stream experienced a surge in viewership due to the sudden conflict, becoming the hottest topic of the evening.
Xie Mi stood at the center of the stage, observing everything before her, a faint smile playing on her lips.
Justice may be delayed, but it will never be absent.
Ruan Feng, the cunning old man
Xie Mi tears apart the old scumbag
Xie Mi Entertainment Industry Judge
With Ruan Feng's downfall, Xie Mi also gained popularity.
Netizens under the trending topic were divided into two camps: one focused on cursing Ruan Feng, while the other commented on Xie Mi's performance in the show.
【air Bude】: Just ten minutes and she made an established artist collapse on the spot. This sister is truly impressive.
【Waist-Length Hair】: Suddenly starting to love Xie Mi's wild spirit. The entertainment industry is so chaotic; we need a few people who dare to speak out.
【Bursting with Holes】: This is hilarious. Ruan Feng thought he could intimidate Xie Mi, but she wasn't scared at all and taught him a lesson.
【A Smile Over the Shoulder Causes Chaos】: I'll say it again, a husband is not a gender; it's a feeling.
【Wudang Mountain Little Yellow Dog】: If Xie Mi's past diva behavior was all bought by Ruan Feng, doesn’t that prove that Xie Mi is actually a decent person?
【Snow Melts and Whispers】: We can't completely clear her name; let's not forget she has one major scandal.
Director Niu held up a cue card for the process.
"Exercise can stimulate adrenaline, heighten human senses, and make it easier to spark romantic feelings with those around you."
"Now, I announce the group divisions!"
Director Niu's voice came through the little bee megaphone, "Liu Woxing and Qiu Chengye are in one group. Xu Shuangrong and Shen Zhaoqing are in another group. Xie Mi and Xiao Jingxi are in the last group!"
Xie Mi's smile instantly faded.
Wait, who decided on these groupings?
Shouldn't you be promoting your most popular pairing, the Xiao Rong CP?
Not only was Xie Mi angry, but the fans in the live stream were also furious.
The comments in Xie Mi's live stream were in chaos.
"I knew the trending topic wouldn't come out of nowhere; Xie Mi really wants to be the third wheel."
"Xie Mi claims Ruan Feng is harassing her, but isn't she doing the same? Getting handsy with Best Actor Xiao during the three-legged race is just disgusting."
"Besides being tied at the feet, they were half a meter apart. I didn't see Xie Mi getting handsy with Xiao Jingxi."
"I only saw her punch Best Actor Xiao."
"That's still physical contact! She did it on purpose; I wonder how much tofu she got to eat during that hundred meters. She must have enjoyed it."
"Exactly! The other two groups are almost halfway through, and they're still standing there. It's obvious Xie Mi is dragging things out to get more time with Best Actor Xiao. We're all women; who can’t see through that?"
"Isn't it Xiao Jingxi who messed up which foot to move first, causing Xie Mi to almost fall? Why is the audience so harsh on the girl?"
The haters determined to criticize Xie Mi didn't care about these details and kept shouting that Xie Mi was harassing Xiao Jingxi, flooding the comments section.
Live Stream The atmosphere suddenly changed. Xie Mi squatted down, supporting herself with her hands on the ground, raising her hips in a starting position.
Xiao Jingxi frowned and hadn't had a chance to speak when Xie Mi burst out like a runaway horse, and Xiao Jingxi was yanked off his feet.
He rolled his eyes in disbelief.
【What the hell!!!】
【Xie Mi you crazy woman, what are you doing!!】
Xie Mi moved with the speed of a motor, kicking up dust everywhere. Xiao Jingxi became a mere accessory, dragged along as his head thumped against the ground, his eyes rolling back.
Who was waving at him? Ah, it was Great-Grandma.
“Xiao—Shadow—Emperor—” The staff shouted desperately. “What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and save him!”
“I’m scared! Teacher Xie seems to have gone crazy again, boohoo.”
“Best Actor Xiao is calling for help!”
“Best Actor Xiao is spitting blood!!”
“Best Actor Xiao has fainted!!!”
Xie Mi leaped over the finish line, successfully taking first place. Sunlight poured down on her as she flashed a victorious smile.
“With no man in my heart, I draw my sword with ease!”
Behind them was a crowd of staff members and Xiao Jingxi being carried away on a stretcher.
【…………】
【Who dares to say that Xie Mi is harassing Best Actor Xiao again?】
【With this situation, how could she possibly like Best Actor Xiao? If she likes Best Actor Xiao, I’ll eat shit!】
【Is it all about tricking for food and drinks?】
【I seriously suspect that I was fed fake gossip before; the show is paused, and I want to get the real scoop again.】
The trending topic "No Men in Heart, Draw Sword Naturally" successfully overshadowed the original entry about Xie Mi being a mistress.
Netizens, not believing in superstitions, went back to investigate and unexpectedly discovered that aside from the initial revelation of a photo of Xie Mi with Xiao Jingxi on her phone, there were no further connections between the two.
All rumors about Xie Mi being a dream girl, a devoted fan, or interfering in relationships were forcefully extended by those CP fans.
One person told ten, ten told a hundred, and as the story spread, it became true.
【Burning Chest Hair】: Looking at it this way, did I misunderstand Xie Mi again?
【Little Dog Bento】: Suddenly feel sorry for Xie Mi, being inexplicably slandered and then stabbed in the back; it's no wonder she's going crazy.
【Not a Sissy Boy】: I feel pity for her.
【Sponge Baby】: So Xie Mi has been cleared of suspicion? Then I might start shipping her; I've had my eye on Xie Mi and Mr. Shen as a couple for a while now, heh heh.
【You’re Such a Loser】: Doesn’t anyone care about the injured Best Actor Xiao? Don’t you think what Xie Mi did was a bit too much?
Shuang and Mr. Shen were also injured! No one expected that a simple three-legged race would result in three people getting hurt. The most unfortunate was Xiao Jingxi, needless to say. Shen Zhaoqing and Xu Shuangrong were also quite unlucky; they both fell at the same time due to a lack of coordination and sprained their ankles.
“Mr. Shen is okay, but Teacher Xu is in more serious pain, he’s even gasping,” Xie Mi pondered as he listened to the staff's conversation.
Although the teams had changed, the falling scenario remained the same, only this time it was Xu Shuangrong and Shen Zhaoqing who fell. However, unlike in the original story where they ended up in an embrace, they both got injured instead.
This is interesting. Due to the injuries of the guests, the production team granted a half-day break.
At six o'clock in the evening, recording resumed.
“Please wear these watches,” the Assistant Director said as he took out six watches. “These are heart rate monitors that can track your heart rate in real-time. When your heart rate exceeds 120, an alarm will sound.”
“This is our show's biggest feature,” Director Niu said proudly. “Wearing the heart rate monitor means your feelings cannot be hidden. If you feel a flutter for someone and your heart rate spikes, the alarm will reveal your true feelings.”
This setup is interesting!
Then acting becomes impossible; if you like someone, it's obvious!
I’m suddenly curious about who will be the first to trigger the alarm.
“Next, please check your heart rates!” After Director Niu finished speaking, Xie Mi tapped on his watch.
