Was Lisa going to let Jennie leave so easily?

In the past, Lisa always ended up stopping Jennie regardless of how smart she tried to be. Although she was able to go out in the past, she only managed to go after putting up a huge fight.

“Jen, what did you say to him? Why is he so nice?” asked Nancy in surprise.

“He was always nice to begin with,” replied Jennie with a smile.

“Didn’t you get into a fight yesterday?”

Jennie looked at her. “Are you hoping that we did?”

Nancy hurriedly shook her head. “Of course not! I’m your best friend. I only want the best for you!”

Jennie smiled happily. “I want the best for you too.”

Nancy felt that Jennie had changed a lot and was starting to doubt her and seemed to be implying something when she spoke. However, she was incapable of figuring out what was wrong or even whether Jennie and Lisa got into a fight after she left yesterday.

Also, she did not have a clue about Jennie and Lisa getting married.

The two of them soon arrived at the “Ultimate Singer-Songwriter filming location.

Jennie removed her mask and put on the mask that the staff gave her.

The show had dreams of being a pioneer among talent programs that only cared about looks and not ability. All the participants had to abide by two criteria: 1) They had to use their original songs. 2) They were not allowed to show their faces throughout the program.

They wanted to promote truly talented singer-songwriters in the entertainment industry.

A few episodes of the program had already been aired, and Jennie managed to stay thus far despite her inconsistent performance.

Nany had already made quite a name for herself owing to her unique voice.

“Kai is here!”

Everyone looked towards Kai when they heard the voice.

Kai walked out with a huge retinue and looked very impressive. He was one of the four instructors appearing on the show.

Kai was the most popular idol singer in Country S, so he came with a huge following and a lot of media attention.

The “Ultimate Singer-Songwriter” managed to receive a healthy viewership when it first aired, mostly thanks to him.

Jennie looked towards the extraordinarily handsome man as well. He was tall and lean and immaculately dressed in a designer suit. His stylish necktie made him look very gentlemanly. And his hair was meticulously done by a stylist and made his face flawless from every angle.

He was undoubtedly mesmerizing.

Jennie was obsessed with him for years in her past life. Even though a part of it was due to his good looks, he was also there for her when she felt the most powerless.

However, now that she had scrutinized Lisa closely, she shockingly realized that Kai was just a flickering light who could never compare to Lisa’s dazzling glory.

Nancy caught sight of Jennie looking at Kai infatuatedly, so she pulled Jennie’s hand and said, “Let’s go backstage and find him!”

Kai was Nancy’s cousin, so they were rather close. However, their relationship was unknown to the public.

Jennie nodded and said, “Forget it. It’s too crowded. I’ll try again at night.”

Nancy contemplated. Then again, it made sense to meet at night since it made things look clandestine.

“The filming is about to start. Places please, everyone!”

Jennie and Nancy entered the set when they heard the film crew calling for them.

All the participants were wearing a mask on set, with only their bodies visible.
