Chapter 549: Not Comparable
As for Fan Yueying, who was also eliminated, Xia Xibei didn’t even look at her.
Fan Yueying knew that she had done something wrong, so she came over with her head down and whispered, “I’m sorry,” before turning around and running away.
Pan Yan looked at her departing back and was livid.
If Xia Xibei hadn’t been dragged down by Fan Yueying, how could she have been eliminated?!
If he had known, he should have insisted that Xia Xibei dance solo!
“It’s okay,” Xia Xibei rea.s.sured him. “It’s not that bad. Now I still have time to partic.i.p.ate in the English compet.i.tion.”
A few days ago, the lead teacher surprised her by telling her that the English compet.i.tion in the imperial capital had been rescheduled for the following Sat.u.r.day.
If Xia Xibei had advanced in the show, the times would have conflicted.
However, she was eliminated, just in time for this compet.i.tion.
Pan Yan, however, was not comforted.
“That is an English compet.i.tion! Is it comparable to this show?!”
“The Strongest Female Group” was a collaboration between several major companies, and the show’s resources and exposure would be huge.
The English compet.i.tion that Xia Xibei had partic.i.p.ated in, or the national compet.i.tion, sounded high brow, but how many people would pay attention or understand it?!
This was too pitiful!
“It’s okay, I think it’s fine.”
What in the world did Xia Xibei eat? How did she become so mellow about it?
At this point in time, how could she still feel pretty good?
Was she comforting him, or herself?
While Xia Xibei had relaxed, Pan Yan was still very angry, and he furiously called the company.
However, the company gave a reply that made him stomp his feet.
Since it was Yan Junhong who spoke, it meant Xia Xibei’s performance was really not very good. Although she was usually very good, this kind of thing also depended on the performance on-site! It was possible to perform badly after going on stage. Didn’t they see it so often? Moreover, the company had someone going into the next stage, so there was no need to make it ugly.
These words almost made Pan Yan choke!
But what else could he say if the company didn’t step in to get justice?
Xia Xibei patted his shoulder, “Don’t worry.”
Pan Yan was not gracious, rolling his eyes at her. How could she be so calm?
While the two were discussing, Xia Qinghan pa.s.sed by them and stopped, revealing a smile.
“Don’t worry, I will definitely compete well and make our company proud!”
“Good! Then I wish you success.”
Xia Xibei’s smile was also very sincere.
Xia Qinghan froze for a moment. She was not angry?
Without waiting for Xia Qinghan to continue talking, Xia Xibei had already waved at her and walked away with the sulking Pan Yan.
Looking at Xia Xibei’s departing back, Xia Qinghan became even more puzzled.
However, she quickly put her mind at ease.
Things had already come to this point, and it was difficult to imagine that Xia Xibei could still change the outcome.
In the following week, “The Strongest Female Group” started a crazy promotion online.
By the time it aired on Sat.u.r.day, all the viewers who should have been paying attention already knew about the show.
Song Jiaren and the others were happy too. They didn’t know that Xia Xibei had been eliminated in the first round. They were thinking that she must have done great!
But to their surprise, after the show aired, everyone was dumbfounded.
Xia Xibei was eliminated! Moreover, there were very few shots of her. Just the scene where a mistake occurred while walking, and the judge’s vicious commentary on her.
Listening to Yan Junhong’s commentary, everyone was confused and thought they had heard wrong.
How was it possible that Xia Xibei had been eliminated? How was it possible?
