Bab 87: What If You Lose?
Feng Xiao Qing's dancing coach was a twenty-something-years-old man that knew how dirty the industry was. His name is Yong Le. He took a liking at Feng Xiao Qing's hardworking attitude and he didn't like to see her being bullied. He saw how she attended class after class that was thrown at her without complaining and she did everything better than any other newbies that he had taught.
He quickly said, "An Ran Jie, Xiao Qing still has no experience in this. How could she manage all of these trainees? They are just an unreasonable bunch of girls!" Yong Le looked at them in disdain and it made the trainees became so embarrassed.
They felt that their career almost ended because they provoked Feng Xiao Qing --- even the weird Yong Le who was picky of his students talked on Feng Xiao Qing's behalf! What's so special about Feng Xiao Qing?! They couldn't say she climbed into Yong Le's bed, after all, he was known as a cut sleeve!
An Ran was quite surprised because even Yong Le was willing to meddle on Feng Xiao Qing's behalf. She knew that Yong Le only appreciated hardworking trainee and talented ones, so he must take a liking to Feng Xiao Qing and it made it easier for her goal. She wanted to polish Feng Xiao Qing as soon as possible and defeated that betrayer Yun Yi.
An Ran and Yun Yi were actually best friends. Her betrayal hit her the most and left a bitter taste to An Ran. She couldn't believe how Yun Yi trampled their friendship like it was actually nothing.
An Ran sighed. "But... we need to have a lovely working environment. Feng Xiao Qing needs to prove herself... so that she could shut them up!" An Ran didn't beat around the bush, making the other trainees grit their teeth. Why did An Ran Jie so biased toward her? Just because she was under her wings?
"An Ran Jie... you should propose a fair battle," Yong Le suggested and An Ran nodded in agreement.
One of the onlookers said, "The other trainees have the advantage of learning longer than Feng Xiao Qing. How could they determine whether it's fair or not...?" What the onlooker said wasn't wrong. It was hard to determine which one was better in this kind of situation.
"Feng Xiao Qing naturally needs times to learn and reach their standard. So... we will need more times and let the battle take place a month after this," An Ran proposed.
The onlookers gasped. Did An Ran Jie lose her mind?! How could they compare one month works to a few years work?! Wasn't it... a bit unfair? They murmured to themselves but didn't dare to refute the golden manager's words. They threw a speculative gaze at Feng Xiao Qing, asking to themselves whether she was really that good or An Ran Jie was too confident on her talent.
Feng Xiao Qing felt like crying. If they wanted to do a battle, was there a need to announce it in front of so many people? This matter really increased the pressure that she felt.
An Ran glanced at Feng Xiao Qing and asked, "Xiao Qing, what do you think? Do you have confidence in yourself?"
Feng Xiao Qing really wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. Did she have a choice to refuse? Besides, there were so many onlookers and she wouldn't let herself become a joke! Feng Xiao Qing nodded, "I believe in An Ran Jie's arrangement!" She answered with a clever reply.
An Ran's mouth twitched once again. She really knew how to answer the question. Was there a need for her to attend the public relation class? She didn't say her thoughts on this matter but throw the hard part back to An Ran. She tactfully didn't say that she was confident of herself, so if something went wrong then it would be because of An Ran. 'This little imp!' An Ran thought to herself, however, she admired the way her smart mind worked in such a short time.
Siu Lan smiled confidently and she said, "I also agree. It seems like An Ran Jie is confident with Feng Xiao Qing's skill. I want to prove that An Ran Jie is wrong to put her all to this newbie!" After that, she added, "If I win, I want An Ran Jie to kick her out of the company and become my manager."
Siu Lan knew that her days were numbered and she saw this as a big opportunity. She arrogantly wanted to use this battle to gain her own benefits --- even the other trainees gasped at her ridiculous request. The other trainees didn't dare to follow her example, trying to leave themselves a way out. They looked at each other and they reached a consensus not to partake in this battle.
Who is An Ran Jie? She had the name golden manager, not as a mere joke, she was so talented in managing her artiste. She could discern raw talent easily and she wouldn't propose this battle if she didn't have any hidden cards. It would be better if they only became onlookers and started to work harder.
Siu Lan scowled at those meek trainees. She would prove that she would be able to succeed and win this battle! Her eyes started to show her greet and the other trainees could only shake their head. They tactfully moved back and said, "An Ran Jie, we won't join the battle..."
"Are you sure?" An Ran asked once again.
They resolutely nodded and answered, "We are sure." They weren't as arrogant as Siu Lan and their talents also weren't as good as Siu Lan. On what basis, they joined in this farce? It would be better if they stopped here.
An Ran didn't care about those trainees, so she only nodded and pushed them. However, she turned her gaze at Siu Lan and asked, "What if you lose?"
