Chapter 42 - Was Filled With Joy and Sorrow
Chapter 42: Was Filled With Joy and Sorrow
Mu Chen, who was currently watching the live broadcast, frowned. The lady beside him could not help but say, “So, this is the person you want to endorse? Don’t you think her ability is too weak? Why do you want to endorse her?”
Mu Chen said helplessly, “Sister, I didn’t ask you to pick her based on her singing skills. I just want her to be the female lead!”
The lady shook her head. “A large sum of money is needed to be invested in the movie. We’ll discuss it after you have solved this problem.”
Mu Chen instantly thought of Fang Mo’er, who he believed was still infatuated with him. If he asked her, she might still do as he asked and invest all the money she had received from her family into the company.
“I won’t watch this any longer. Look for me when you’re ready. I’m busy.” The lady then left after she had finished speaking.
Just then the live broadcast room was filled with applause.
Whether it was from the bullet screen or the audience facing the stage, everyone was shouting, “Veiled Queen! Veiled Queen!”
Backstage.
Bai Rong was so angry that she had gone pale. She looked at Fang Mo’er unkindly.
Fang Mo’er walked to Xiao Tian’s side.
Xiao Tian said excitedly, “Sister Veiled Queen, you sang so well!”
Lang Qi was relieved when he realized that Fang Mo’er was fine. The emcee on the stage immediately called for him and he rushed onto the stage.
Fang Mo’er seemed to be in high spirits. She winked at Xiao Tian and asked, “How good was it?”
Xiao Tian smiled and said, “It was on the level of a music hall. It’s not something an ordinary singer can compare to.”
At that moment, Bai Rong, could not help but snort.
Fang Mo’er turned around and said, “Miss Bai, you’re here too. It was a pleasure working with you today! Thank you for cooperating with my performance.”
‘If not for you, I wouldn’t have been able to showcase my brilliance.’
Bai Rong was about to explode from anger. She glared fiercely at her assistant.
It was all this idiot’s fault. She had not even given her the sleeping pills properly, which had resulted in Fang Mo’er still being full of vigor.
The other actors backstage also gave the Veiled Queen a thumbs up before they went on stage.
Hence, the entire backstage was filled with cheers.
The Veiled Queen was the center of attention.
Bai Rong, on the other hand, stood coldly as she felt completely out of the loop. In the end, she could not stand it anymore and hurriedly left with her assistant.
Once the other actors had gone on stage, Xiao Tian tugged at the Veiled Queen curiously and whispered, “Sister, it looks like the stimulant is working. How do you feel now?”
Fang Mo’er seemed to be a bit drunk. “Of course I’m full of energy. I want to find someone to fight with!”
Xiao Tian looked at her strangely. “So, there aren’t any side effects?”
Fang Mo’er shook her head. “Not really!”
However, in the very next second, Xiao Tian saw the Veiled Queen’s body suddenly stiffen. She then closed her eyes and slowly fell to the ground. Xiao Tian quickly moved forward to support her. “Sister Veiled Queen!”
Was this called ‘extreme joy begetting sorrow’?
Fang Mo’er was carried into the car by a few people and sent straight to the hospital.
A day and a night passed.
On the Internet, the live performance of the Veiled Queen and Bai Rong was also trending.
Initially, the impression everyone had of Bai Rong was good and they had sympathized with her for finding a substitute singer because she had not been able to sing much due to her illness.
However, at the live performance this time, Bai Rong’s singing skills were completely different from what was shown in her music videos.
The experience was like buying clothes on Taobao based on seeing the models wearing bright and beautiful clothes, and thinking that the materials and colors were not bad. However, when the goods arrived, they found that there was a big color difference and the goods were not right.
They would then cry out that they had been fooled.
Many people even chose to return the goods to complain.
Therefore, the number of people on the Internet who were attracted to the voice of the Veiled Queen was the same as the number of people who were disappointed with Bai Rong’s singing ability.
“With her singing ability, how did she become a popular singer!?”
“Just give me a million tuners, and I think I can do it too!”
“I’m no longer a fan! Anyone’s better than a weak artist like her!”
“Just change to the Veiled Queen instead. She’s got real ability!”
Fang Mo’er did not know that she had become popular again. After a day and night of being unconscious, she finally woke up.
She found herself in the white bed of the Xiangyuan Residence.
The sun was shining brightly outside the window. Fang Mo’er stretched herself and yawned.
Her sleep had been so comfortable.
Now, she felt full of energy!
“Madam, you’re finally awake!” The maid was pleasantly surprised when she saw Fang Mo’er walk out.
“How long have I been unconscious?”
“Madam has been asleep for a whole day!”
Fang Mo’er remembered that she had returned to the backstage area after her performance and had been praised so much that she had gotten a little carried away with happiness. However, she had not expected that she would suddenly be overcome by a wave of sleepiness.
As she slept, Fang Mo’er had had a beautiful dream. In the dream, Shi Mo had been transformed into an eminent monk while she had been a demoness. She dreamt that she had bewitched the eminent monk to break the precepts until she had succeeded in the end. Then, he had fallen onto the straw mat with her and… It had been an indescribable dream.
Fang Mo’er felt her face flush red. She felt that this dream could be used as a story for her manga.
Having obtained such an achievement just through sleeping, was truly worth it.
