HIS SECRET WIFE

Chapter 129

"After you enter the top 100, you will be able to see me," a smile hung to the corner of Y/n's lips. She didn't speak too fast nor too slow, so her voice was very soothing.

This was how Xing Lan calmed down, even though the person backing her felt just as dangerous as Li Can.

Seeing that Xing Lan was now relaxed, Lin Qian leaned in and smiled, "Feeling better now?"

"I'm curious why you selected me," Xing Lan tilted her head curiously at Lin Qian. "People like me have no background and attract trouble. Why would you pick me?"

"Superstar Media's biggest aim is to find artists like you who are talented but have not progressed in their career," Lin Qian winked. "So, expect to see more people joining us in the future."

After hearing Lin Qian's response, Xing Lan was quite surprised. She couldn't believe that an agency like this existed in the entertainment industry and that she was lucky enough to come across them.

"Stop thinking too much. Relax and focus on your competition."

Xing Lan nodded as her curiosity grew towards the person scheming behind-the-scenes.

But, there was no need to be impatient; she was going to meet her very soon.

...

The Journey Singing Competiton was actually very popular in Seoul. After all, it only happened once every few years.

On the streets, on the television and all over the internet...there were updates about the competition wherever one went. However, Y/n had asked Xing Lan to maintain a low profile. So, she did not feel like she was truly in the competition yet.

As usual, Lin Qian accompanied Xing Lan to the top 300 elimination round. But, before the competition started, Xing Lan spotted the beautiful woman from last time: Nana.

"Look. Didn't you bet that she would be eliminated?"

"She has indeed been eliminated. You mustn't have watched the replay of the show," Lin Qian said as she raised her eyebrows. "In fact, the judges gave her a pretty bad scolding during the competition."

"Really?" Xing Lan once again looked at the young woman in surprise.

Didn't good looks work?

"The round is about to start..."

Xing Lan held onto her phone, as nervous as ever. She knew that Li Can had planted a trap for her to fall into.

Lin Qian noticed her nervousness and quickly comforted, "It's fine."

As expected, Xing Lan's phone began to ring a few minutes later. She took a glance at the caller ID and said to Lin Qian, "I'm going to pop out and take this call."

"Don't take too long."

Xing Lan nodded before she stepped out into the corridors to pick up her call. After listening to the call, she blitzed out of the building's glass doors without mentioning a word to Lin Qian. Meanwhile, not too far away, Li Can watched the entire scene with her own eyes.

"My dear sister, you sure are naive," Li Can smirked coldly before she put on her sunglasses and left.

Xing Lan waved down a random taxi and hopped inside. However, before the taxi got very far, it ended up colliding with another car. The two drivers stopped to the side of the road and began to negotiate, but no one knew what happened afterwards.

Meanwhile, Lin Qian was aware of what Xing Lan was doing...but the competition was about to start – there were only a few minutes left. If she didn't return in time, the producers would simply disqualify her.
