Xi Chenxiao knew that Su Jin must be under tremendous pressure right now. After all, Merlin had performed quite well. If Su Jin made even the slightest mistake on stage, she would be mercilessly ridiculed by everyone. Xi Chenxiao held Su Jin’s hand and comforted her.

  “Merlin is a professional. Amateurs and professionals are somewhat different. Don’t feel pressured.”


  Su Jin nodded and smiled. Devil Xi was afraid that she would feel pressured and he comforted her. However, it did not matter. This was just a small audience, why should I be afraid? I’ll let her know soon enough that there’s always someone better.

  Xi Chenxiao was extremely nervous. After all, the girl’s voice had just recovered. If she went up to sing, she could easily lose. However, since she wanted to go up, there should be no problem. But, he still said worriedly,

  “Don’t worry about embarrassing me. I’m fine. Just do whatever you want.”


  Su Jin was speechless when she heard this, but she was very touched. Boss Xi was such a face-loving person, yet he said such things for her. Since he said that, all the more she couldn’t embarrass him.

  “Boss, can’t you trust me just this once?” Xi Chenxiao nodded seriously. Since she said that, why shouldn’t he trust her? Xi Tian looked at Su Jin nervously. After all, singing required talent, but he cheered Su Jin on,

  “Madam, you can do it. Oh yeah.”


  Su Jin looked at the silly Xi Tian and was speechless. This Xi Tian has been spouting nonsense all day. It’s really embarrassing. Meanwhile, Merlin bowed slightly to the audience and looked at Su Jin. She smiled and

  said,

  “I’ve already finished singing. Now, I’ll invite Miss Su Jin to come onstage and perform a song for us. Everyone, please welcome Miss Su

  Jin.”


  Su Jin was flabbergasted. This person didn’t even ask her if she wanted to perform and just made everyone applaud. If she didn’t go onstage now, everyone would mock her. At the thought of this, Su Jin stood up and walked towards the stage.

  Xi Chenxiao watched Su Jin’s back, his eyes filled with love, trust, and a little anticipation. He didn’t know if Su Jin would surprise him again and slap everyone’s faces yet again with her talent.

  Xi Tian kept cheering Su Jin on as she walked by. She thought it was silly and couldn’t help but speed up. This kind of cheering was indeed a little embarrassing! She arrived onstage quickly and just when she was about to pick up the microphone, Merlin announced, “Before Miss Su Jin sings, let’s have a vote. There will be prizes, okay?”


  Su Jin heard this and looked at Merlin. She noticed a hint of wickedness in Merlin’s eyes. She knew that this woman would not let her off easily. However, before Su Jin could say anything, the crowd asked, “What vote?”


  Merlin was very pleased to hear this question. If the crowd played along, she believed that she would be successful at letting this girl make a fool of herself. When that time came, she would humiliate her and take revenge for what she had done just now. She smiled and said,

  “I’ll have a little competition with Miss Su Jin. If I win, Miss Su Jin will agree to a request of mine. Of course, if I lose, I’ll agree to a request of Miss Su Jin’s.”


  “So, the vote will be about who you think sang better between the two of us. If you agree, I’ll give everyone a mysterious gift. What do you say…”


  Before Merlin could finish, the crowd agreed. After all, with Miss Merlin’s wealth, her gift would not be too shabby. This was also an opportunity to curry favor with Merlin, so they shouted,

  “We agree. It’s just a vote.”


  Merlin nodded in satisfaction when she heard everyone’s agreement. It would soon be time to see Su Jin make a fool of herself. Merlin’s mood instantly brightened. She turned her head to look at Su Jin and said with a smile,

  “Miss Su Jin, do you agree as well?” From the moment Su Jin walked up calmly to the moment when she was about to sing, Merlin realized that Su Jin might not be a mute, but it did not matter. She was a professional singer, and this Su Jin was at best a good amateur; she would not be a match for her at all.

  As long as this little mute dared to sing, then in a while, she would be the winner. When that time came, she would be able to make a request for Xi Chenxiao!
