"It’s just a matter of character." Some in the audience discussed, "Otherwise, could she have bought trolls to smear Fei Xiaomo before? Now that Fei Xiaomo has proven herself, she comes out to stir things up again."

"If you’re not capable, just admit defeat."

"Previously, Fei Xiaomo was ranked 11th in the preliminary selection, judged by the judges’ scores, which was different from today. Since Shi Jiumei questioned it, she’s dragged the judges into it too, and now she won’t admit it."

Ye Fei’s fans said, "Shi Jiumei still has the nerve to think Fei Xiaomo’s results are inflated? Who was it that attracted customers by relying on looks before? Fei Xiaomo has been wearing a mask all this time, relying purely on her culinary skills. Instead, it’s Shi Jiumei who’s been smiling all the time."

"Exactly. If Fei Xiaomo had shown her face before, what would have been left for Shi Jiumei? She wouldn’t even get those few votes."

"Fei Xiaomo, stop diverting the topic!" Shi Jiumei said angrily.

Yet with just a few words, Ye Fei changed the audience’s impression.

The one actually pulling strings was Ye Fei, but now it turned into her having a bad character!

"Do you dare to let everyone taste it now? If it really tastes good, I’ll admit it!" Shi Jiumei said. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Nonsense!" Guo Wenbo said with a stern face, "Is this your contest? Does it go as you please? Just because you’re unsatisfied, should we change the rules and restart the contest? What place do you put our contest’s rules in?"

Lu Chenghong hurried to terminate the live broadcast of the contest.

The reason it wasn’t immediately terminated was because Shi Jiumei had already spoken out.

If the broadcast had been terminated directly at that time, it would only lead people to suspect there was something fishy about the contest.

Regardless of the truth, suspicion would first fall on the dominant side of the contest.

That’s why Lu Chenghong didn’t terminate the broadcast right away.

But now, Shi Jiumei’s proposal had clearly become a farce.

What now?

Because she’s unsatisfied with the system of the contest, should she set the rules again?

However, Lu Chenghong was stopped by Zhao Gushen.

"Mr. Shen?" Lu Chenghong looked at Zhao Gushen in confusion.

Zhao Gushen whispered, "No need to terminate."

He looked up at Ye Fei on stage.

Seeing Ye Fei’s calm demeanor, he knew Ye Fei had her own way of dealing with it.

So, Zhao Gushen smiled and said, "If Shi Jiumei wants to contribute clicks to our contest’s live broadcast, let her make a fuss. In the end, if she ruins her own reputation, she can’t blame anyone else."

Lu Chenghong was startled, "But Ye Fei..."

Zhao Gushen letting Shi Jiumei have her way like this, is it really okay?

Aren’t you worried It’ll be bad for Ye Fei?

If things keep escalating, even if Shi Jiumei gains nothing, Ye Fei will inevitably be affected.

Surely some people wouldn’t side with Shi Jiumei and think badly of Ye Fei.

Zhao Gushen didn’t expect Lu Chenghong to have some perceptiveness.

He could see that his relationship with Ye Fei was not ordinary.

If he noticed, why didn’t he ask earlier!

Pretending to be oblivious while knowing the truth, ridiculous!

Zhao Gushen’s face immediately changed.

Lu Chenghong: "..."

The boss, what’s wrong?

What did he say wrong?

He didn’t even say anything!

In Lu Chenghong’s frustrated mind, Zhao Gushen said, "No need to worry, she knows what she’s doing."

Then, he looked back at Ye Fei on the stage.

Ye Fei didn’t look at him, nor did she seek his help.

She wore a slightly amused and confident expression, clearly knowing what to do.

Since that was the case, Zhao Gushen decided to give the stage to Ye Fei, and temporarily didn’t step in.
