Chương 214: Pride

Zhang Xuefeng struggled to find words to describe the thrilling performance he had just witnessed. 

"It's...umm..." he began, clearly at a loss. The sheer brilliance of the performance had rendered him momentarily speechless. "If y'all had performed like this yesterday during the evaluation, maybe I wouldn't have been so shocked."

The audience erupted into laughter, sensing how deeply Zhang Xuefeng had been taken aback. It was evident to everyone that the performance had far surpassed any expectations he had held.

Turning his attention to Xia Lihua, he continued, "I was expecting Nan Ru to sing the last lines as originally planned, but it's good that you cut the part." He paused for a moment. "This is what teamwork is about. You create a balance, and that's how shortcomings are overcome. Even if Nan Ru's lines were cut, she still shone on the stage."

Nan Ru's eyes glistened with unshed tears.
