"Sorry." Su Yicheng smiled very gentlemanly at Candy, "Xiao Xi and I just had something to do."
Luo Xiaoxi in the room almost went berserk. Is he sure he wasn't deepening the misunderstanding by saying this?
Candy looked understanding, laughed a few times, and said: "It's okay, it's not an urgent matter for me to find Xiao Xi. But are you leaving?"
"Yes." Su Yicheng said.
Candy, who was blocking the door, quickly got out of the way: "I'm sorry, I don't know."
"It doesn't matter." Su Yicheng smiled slightly and walked away with long legs.
Candy looked at his back, shook her head and said "tsk tsk" twice before entering the room: "Xiao Xi, I know why you like him. Just now, he almost fascinated me."
Luo Xiaoxi was ashamed: "Didn't you say that you are already immune to handsome guys?"
"I am indeed immune to all kinds of hotties in the industry." Candy exaggeratedly said, covering her heart, "But I will probably never be immune to such a mature and steady appearance who can still blow up the hotties every minute.
Already."
Luo Xiaoxi: "..." Her love rival is born so easily. Wherever Su Yicheng goes, there will be her love rival.
"If one day there is no chance for you anymore, I will definitely follow your example and chase Su Yicheng!" Candy's face said: "I'm not kidding."
Taking advantage of her height, Luo Xiaoxi stood up and knocked on Candy's head: "You should give up! By the way, weren't you in a hurry to find me just now? What happened?"
"Oh! I almost forgot!" Candy then returned to work, "The show is almost over, and it's time to announce the results and interview, so get ready!"
Luo Xiaoxi was also speechless about this agent. She was patching up her makeup and changing her shoes, preparing for the most stressful moment ahead.
By this time, Su Yicheng had returned to the auditorium.
As soon as he sat down, Su Jianan asked: "Brother, how is Xiao Xi?"
"No injuries." Su Yicheng said, "Don't worry about her."
Su Jianan breathed a sigh of relief: "But the shoes are obviously new, why did they break? The quality of the shoes of this brand is obviously not bad..."
Su Yicheng said nothing, clasped his hands in front of him, his eyes gradually became dark...
He was also confused about this question, so he asked Luo Xiaoxi just now, but she said it was an accident.
But such an accident is too strange.
Soon, the commercial time came back and the program had already reached the stage of announcing the results.
Before the announcement, there was a one-on-one interview with the contestants by two hosts. Twenty tall girls came out, and for a while, the stage was so dazzling that people could not take their eyes away.
The duration of the program was limited, and each person was given one and a half minutes of interview time. The host, who was very knowledgeable, controlled the interview questions and time very well, but when it came to Luo Xiaoxi, he obviously relaxed and gave more time.
"Xiao Xi," the host asked with a smile, "can you tell me what happened just now? If your shoes weren't really broken, I would suspect that it was just an action designed by you."
Luo Xiaoxi took the microphone and looked at the large crowd and light sticks in the audience. It would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous.
She has received professional stage training, has rehearsed several times, and has walked on the catwalk, but this is her first time speaking on a live broadcast.
She took a deep breath and tried to pronounce every word clearly: "The shoe broke. It was an accident. I never imagined that such a thing would happen."
"If I remember correctly, this is your second time on the catwalk." The host asked, "It stands to reason that you have very little stage experience, so how could you react like that? I was just sweating for you.
, I’m done thinking about it. But after seeing you react like that, I really want to come over and hug you.”
Luo Xiaoxi slowly relaxed and shrugged with a smile: "I don't have much stage experience, but I have a lot of emergency experience."
The host laughed again after hearing this, and then chatted with Luo Xiaoxi for a few words. The interview lasted a full three minutes longer than the other contestants.
When the first episode of the program is aired, whoever appears for the longest time will be most easily remembered by the audience. There is no doubt about it.
But Luo Xiaoxi was also a blessing in disguise.
After the interviews with the contestants, the judges also had the results, and the next step was the tense announcement of the scores.
The judges evaluate the contestants' performance, typhoon and other aspects, superimpose the calculations, and then announce the scores of each contestant in the same scoring item at the same time. The total score of each contestant on the big screen keeps changing, and the ranking also keeps changing.
Not to mention Luo Xiaoxi on the stage, Su Jianan's heart was in suspense.
What is reassuring is that from the current point of view, Luo Xiaoxi's score is not low.
The last item is T-stage performance.
This aspect is very dangerous for Luo Xiaoxi.
She just had an accident on the catwalk. Although she made an emergency response and the audience bought it, no one was sure of the judges' attitude.
They may affirm Luo Xiaoxi's performance, but... they may also directly give Luo Xiaoxi zero points.
Su Jianan unconsciously grabbed Lu Boyan's hand: "If I had known earlier, I would have asked my brother to open the back door for Xiao Xi." Luo Xiaoxi was directly designated as the champion, so she didn't have to be so nervous now.
Lu Boyan only said: "I'm afraid Xiao Xi won't agree."
Su Jian'an thought about it carefully. Luo Xiaoxi seemed to others to be uneducated and squandered all day long. But what she lacked most was arrogance and stubbornness. Only when he proposed to designate her as the champion would she really fall out and run away.
Thinking of this, Su Jianan breathed a sigh of relief and stared at the big screen waiting for the result.
In any case, the judges had already made their scores, and her nervousness could not change anything.
This is, the big screen flips, a "+" sign appears next to each contestant's name, and then the ratings of the runway performance slowly emerge.
There are a total of five scoring items, each accounting for 20 points. Some contestants scored as high as 17 or 8 on the runway, but some scored zero points.
And Luo Xiaoxi... 20 points.
Her timely emergency response was recognized.
And her overall ranking suddenly jumped to first place.
"Congratulations Xiao Xi!" The host handed a crystal trophy to Luo Xiaoxi, "Congratulations, you have directly advanced to our third game!"
The audience burst into applause. Luo Xiaoxi held the crystal trophy for a long time before realizing it. She held it tightly with excitement and thanked the judges and host according to the rules.
"Okay, Xiao Xi," the male host asked with a smile, "It's not easy to win the weekly championship. What do you want to say?"
As we all know, there are templates for acceptance speeches, from parents thanking the company to thanking the TV station for the support of fans.
Luo Xiaoxi didn't know whether she was unwilling to take the ordinary path, or she was so excited that she forgot the speech template, so she blurted out:
"I became a model to prove that this can be a profession and a job. I also want to prove that I can do this job very well." Luo Xiaoxi held the crystal trophy in her hand hard and smiled.
Say, "I initially succeeded!"
"This speech... is very special." It was also the first time for the host to hear such an unofficial acceptance speech, and he asked with interest, "Who are you trying to prove to?"
"My family." Luo Xiaoxi paused before continuing, "There are also some...other people."
The host wisely did not ask further questions and asked Luo Xiaoxi some other questions, which she answered very well.
Informed | Everyone knows very well that what Luo Xiaoxi calls "some other people" refers to Su Yicheng.
Su Jianan deliberately caused trouble for her brother: "If Xiao Xi becomes popular and there are a lot of male fans chasing her for photos every day, will you regret it?"
Su Yicheng smiled coldly: "You wait until she becomes famous before you ask me." The implication is that it is not easy for Luo Xiaoxi to become popular.
This is also true. Su Jianan was speechless for a moment. Just as he was looking for words, he heard Lu Boyan beside him say lightly: "Are you doubting our company's star-making ability?"
Only then did Su Jianan realize that Luo Xiaoxi was an artist from Lu's Media! With Luo Xiaoxi's strength and Lu's support, could she still become popular?
There was no need to organize any words. Su Jianan smiled a little proudly: "Brother, you can think about the answer now."
"..." Su Yicheng regretted marrying Su Jianan to Lu Boyan more and more. Girls are said to be outgoing, but his younger sister has only been married for less than a year and is already so outgoing that she almost forgets that he is her biological brother.
With emotion, the live broadcast ended, the hosts and models retreated, and the audience also left the studio one after another.
Su Jian'an also stood up and looked at Lu Boyan with some expectancy: "Is the back tai less chaotic now? I want to go to the back tai to find Xiao Xi!"
When the scores came out and she saw that Luo Xiaoxi's score was at the top of the list, she was just as excited as Luo Xiaoxi. Now she just wanted to hug Luo Xiaoxi fiercely.
"After the show, Tai will be even more messy than before." Lu Boyan said, "It's not convenient for you to go first. Let's go home first. You can find Xiao Xi at any time tomorrow."
"...Okay." Su Jianan had no choice but to send a text message to Luo Xiaoxi, and then left with Lu Boyan.
What neither of them expected was that there were reporters and several cameras waiting for them outside the door. Although there were security guards blocking them, they were still surrounded.
"Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, are you here to watch "The Next Top Model"?" the reporter asked, "Mr. Lu, you have never appeared on such an occasion before. Is this because you suddenly have an interest? Or is it?
Because where is Mrs. Lu?"
Lu Boyan said: "Because of my wife."
"Oh -" the reporters deliberately teased and asked, "among the contestants is an artist from your company, today's champion Luo Xiaoxi, right? I heard that she and Mrs. Lu are very good friends.
.”
It was not convenient to answer this question right now. Just then, several security guards rushed over and opened a path for the two of them. Lu Boyan took Su Jianan into the car and quickly escaped from the siege of reporters.
Su Jianan then asked: "The reporter asked me about my relationship with Xiao Xi, did you deliberately not answer?"
"Xiao Xi won the championship tonight. I admit that you and she are good friends. There is no guarantee that you will not be used to make a fuss." Lu Boyan said, "'Tai' is disliked by others. The relationship between you and Xiao Xi will become more and more important."
The lower profile the better.”
Su Jianan vaguely understood that this was the reason why Su Yicheng didn't go to Luo Xiaoxi.
She said: "You decide."
And she is only responsible for trusting Lu Boyan.
