As both contestants were very strong, the competition results were naturally brimming with suspense. During this final one vs one match, the two contestant’s poll counts were very close, pretty much equally matched. However, in the end, it was the delicate looking female contestant whose superior skills helped her snatch away the crown. In the past, after the competition was over, there would always be people who would attack the organisers saying that there were shady deals behind the scenes, secret wire-pulling and manipulation, unwritten rules, etc. However, everyone was pleased and happy with the results this time, as the champion was too strong; her victory was the one desired by all.
Ji Mian personally presented the prize cup to her, and gave her a hug on the stage, giving her several words of encouragement. The female contestant nodded over and over again, eyes brimming with tears.
That was how the competition concluded. The audience slowly dispersed. The backstage however, was packed with people. Judges, contestants, reporters, the programme’s high executives were all staying behind to hold a celebration dinner. Xiao Jiashu struggled through the crowd, and finally reached the side of the champion. He repeatedly tried to talk to her but was interrupted by other people every time. As the leading role of tonight, the female contestant was surrounded on all sides: friends who had come to congratulate her, family members and also reporters and scouts.
Fang Kun leaned against the door of the makeup room, sneering. “I was wondering why I couldn’t find Young Master Xiao, turns out he’s gone to pick up girls. He seems to have taken a fancy for Li Jiaer, directly squeezing himself to her side. With the way he’s at it, betcha he won’t be able to even slip in a word edgewise for a long time. “
Fang Kun seemed to like seeing Xiao Jiashu’s wretched state, and really wished he could grab a handful of melon seeds to slowly enjoy the show.
“Call him over. You know Li Jiaer’s circumstances. She won’t be able to cope with that kind of thing.” Ji Mian was leaning against an armchair taking a nap. The makeup artist was carefully and cautiously removing his makeup.
“Alright, I’ll get someone to call him over.” Fang Kun immediately told an assistant to retrieve Xiao Jiashu. Seeing the other party wave his hand in refusal, Fang Kun started getting pissed, his face filled with impatience. “These rich second generations sure are nonsensical, only knowing how to chase girls all day long, doing absolutely nothing of any significance.”
He had a reason for saying these words. Right after Li Jiaer got into the finals Fang Kun liked her potential, and invited her out for a meal. After learning more in depth about her, his appreciation for her increased even more. This kid was still just around twenty, but had dropped out in high school, the reason being because a rich second generation in her school took a fancy for her. She was subjected to his harassment, and had no choice but to drop out for her own safety. However, that wasn’t all, that rich second generation wasn’t willing to let it rest just like that, and used all kinds of methods to crush her. He caused her parents to lose their jobs, forcing her to have to enter the workforce at a young age to earn money, experiencing many difficulties and trials.
Afterwards, unable to endure their days of hardship, her father ran off with all the family’s money. Because of this, her mother fell into depression, and needed to stay long-term in the hospital for treatment. She worked while looking after her mother, but she still didn’t let the cruel reality of her life beat her down, and was instead filled with drive and enthusiasm, and was especially cheerful and optimistic. Fortunately, that rich second generation’s entire family later immigrated overseas to Australia, and so for the past few years, she was able to get by a little easier.
