Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Cha did not know what Jian Yi was thinking about and thought that the latter really wanted to talk to her. Although she was in a hurry to participate in the competition, she still sat down patiently to talk to Jian Yi.

After a while, the phone rang.

When she saw the caller ID, Jian Yi did not pick up immediately. She said to Xia Cha, “Cha Cha, Auntie will pick up the call.”

Xia Cha nodded.

After the host left, Xia Cha read a magazine.

She felt thirsty and walked to the kitchen with the cup.

Unexpectedly, Jian Yi answered the call in the kitchen.. Xia Cha heard her say, “I can’t come even if you’re missing one person. My Heng’er asked me to keep my daughter-in-law here. I have to complete this mission for him.”

Xia Cha’s heart sank.

She did not expect that Jian Yi had been instructed by Huo Heng to keep her here on purpose!

She was only going to participate in the first round of the singing competition and might not even make it into the second round. Why did he interfere and stop her?

Xia Cha did not like the feeling of being controlled.

She was only his fiancée in name. What right did he have to control her like this?

After the phone call, Jian Yi returned to the sofa. She saw Xia Cha, who had a hand on her forehead and looked pale. She asked with concern, “Cha Cha, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Xia Cha raised her long and thick eyelashes, “Auntie, I’m not feeling well. I want to rest in the guest room.”

“Alright, go and rest.”

Xia Cha went to the guest room and closed the door, leaving a note on the bedside table.

She opened the window and looked out.

There was a very large tree outside the window. She jumped on it and climbed down slowly.

Out the back door she ran.

After leaving the villa area, she hailed a taxi by the road.

Even though she had rushed over as fast as she could, it was already past the preliminary round.

She got out of the car and walked toward the hotel where the first round was held.

She did not notice a few figures walking out of the elevator.

The one in the middle was tall and handsome. She was in a hurry to take the elevator and accidentally bumped into that figure.

“Sorry, sorry.” She lowered her head and apologized.

The man looked at the slender girl. Her head was lowered so he couldn’t see her face clearly. There was no reproach on his handsome and cold face. He said coldly and gently, “It’s nothing.”

The man’s voice was very pleasant, like a refreshing spring breeze.

Xia Cha raised her head and looked at the man. The man had already walked away from her.

The man’s back view was tall, handsome and extraordinary. One look and one could tell that he was not an ordinary person.

Huo Third Master brought his assistant to the entrance of the hotel lobby. His assistant couldn’t help but say, “Third Master, girls these days are getting more and more daring. There’s so much space for them to walk through but they insist on bumping into you.”

Huo Third Master glanced at his assistant and his thin lips moved. “That little girl did not do it on purpose.”

He did not get close to women. After so many years, there were not many women who could move his heart.

He was calm and reserved, wise and elegant. He could naturally tell which women approached him for wealth, which ones were fawning over him, and which ones were pure.

…

Xia Cha arrived at the tenth floor of the hotel.

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Xia Furong, who was full of smiles, and Xia Zi, who was holding her arm.

Xia Zi was speaking. “Furong, you’re so amazing. You actually got the pass to advance on the spot.”

Xia Furong curled her lips. “Of course. Look at who I am. In the entire Yan City, how many people can sing better than me?”

Xia Zi was about to say something when she saw Xia Cha walking out of the elevator.

Xia Furong also saw Xia Cha. Her beautiful face instantly changed.

She thought that Xia Cha, a country bumpkin, did not know about this competition. After all, if she could get a good ranking, she would be able to enter Star King Entertainment, one of the best companies in the entertainment industry.

Xia Furong didn’t like Xia Cha, and Xia Zi didn’t like her either. She immediately pulled a long face and scolded, “Xia Cha, what are you doing here?”

“Why do I need to report to you?

Xia Zi glared angrily. “I’m your aunt.”

“If you’re my aunt, you should be a good role model. Don’t always be at the back of the pack in the city’s joint examination.”

Xia Zi was almost angered to death by Xia Cha. She wanted to say something but Xia Furong pulled her back and gave her a look, indicating that there was no need for her to fight with Xia Cha.

She had seen how eloquent Xia Cha was.

After Xia Cha left, Xia Zi said angrily, “Why don’t you let me teach her a lesson? She’s obviously here to participate in the singing competition. Won’t it affect your ranking?”

Xia Zi wasn’t as pretty as Xia Furong, and her voice wasn’t pleasant enough. She naturally couldn’t enter the entertainment industry. However, she had told Xia Furong that once Xia Furong became famous, she would be her assistant.

Xia Furong said with some disdain, “The big boss of Star King Entertainment came over for the first round of the competition today but he stayed in the lounge inside. I heard that he has already left.”

“The bosses and judges of big companies don’t like people who are not punctual. Xia Cha is already late. Who will care about her?”

Xia Zi nodded. “That’s true.”

…

Xia Cha found the venue for the preliminary examination.

The judges inside had already packed their documents and were about to leave.

Seeing Xia Cha appear at the door, one of the male judges frowned, “What’s the matter, little girl?”

Xia Cha walked in and bowed to them. “Hello, judges. I’m here to participate in the preliminary test.”

The male judge raised his hand and looked at his watch. “The first round is over.” Then, he prepared to leave with another judge.

Xia Cha saw a piece of paper on the floor and picked it up.

On it were the few songs that were scheduled for the preliminary round.

It was actually all sung by the celebrity Xia Tang she liked when she was alive.

Xia Cha glanced at the three judges who were preparing to leave. She cleared her throat and sang, “In the twilight, a lone boat broke through the water and came to the shore. Smoke rose from the chimneys. A forlorn young lady waiting for her husband to return…”

The three judges who were about to leave stopped when they heard Xia Cha’s ethereal, melodious, moving, and slightly hoarse voice. They turned to look at her.

She brushed away her hair that was slightly messy, revealing her fair and petite oval face. When the three judges saw her face clearly, they were shocked again.

This girl looked very much like the one the Third Master could never forget, even more than Miss Bai…

Not only did they look alike, even her singing was elegant and ethereal.

The three judges looked at each other. It was not until Xia Cha finished half of the song that they reacted.

The male judge in the middle said, “Your image and singing voice are not bad, but Star King has always had a principle. We will never cooperate with people who are not punctual. We have to tell our boss about your situation. We will contact you when we have the results.”
