Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Hair-Raising Stare, Counterfeit Dress

"Shen..."

Xu Qingmei just started to greet when she saw the black figure in front of her walk away without the slightest hesitation.

Her face instantly turned sullen.

But looking at that perfect figure outlined in black today, she couldn’t help but feel a little itchy in her heart.

She thought the gray and white from the past two days were stunning enough, but didn’t expect something more stunning to come afterward.

This person only shows such a gentle face to Jiang Lingxi, a little girl who is still so immature!

Thankfully, that trending topic didn’t disappoint, having already climbed to third place early in the morning.

Someone like Shen Yunqing, who can’t tolerate a speck of sand in his eyes, would definitely mind if he found out Jiang Lingxi was involved with other men.

Then, it would be her opportunity.

Not only to ruin Jiang Lingxi but also to win over the man who admires her!

After comforting herself in this manner, the gloom on Xu Qingmei’s face disappeared. She puffed out her chest, raised her chin, and walked into the judges’ private dressing room with the most beautiful posture.

She glanced at Shen Yunqing sitting by the tea table at the window, then chose the makeup chair closest to the window to sit down.

When the makeup artist came over to do her makeup, she took out her phone and after a moment, covered her mouth in a small exclamation.

The volume of her gasp wasn’t loud but was controlled precisely to ensure everyone in the makeup room could hear it.

Shen Yunqing was reading a message sent by Shen Huchen when he couldn’t help but frown at the sound coming from the side.

Li Wanxuan was having her eyebrows drawn by the makeup artist with her eyes closed. Noticing that the makeup artist was started by Xu Qingmei’s exclamation, she waved her hand and frowned, "Xiao Xu, what’s the matter?"

Xu Qingmei maintained her shocked expression, her tone filled with irresistible surprise, "I just saw a trending topic saying that Jing Huai and Jiang Lingxi from our show are a couple. I didn’t notice anything at all the past two days; they really kept it under wraps quite tightly."

As she spoke, she glanced sideways in Shen Yunqing’s direction.

She didn’t expect him to suddenly look up, meeting her gaze for the first time in three days. Xu Qingmei was so chilled by this glance that her whole body froze and her back instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

However, everyone in the makeup room was shocked by her revelation and didn’t notice her instant palpable fear and drenched cold sweat.

"Really?"

"Jing Huai and Jiang Lingxi, apart from greeting each other at the beginning during the recording, they didn’t seem to talk much. They don’t look like a couple at all!"

"Maybe they’re deliberately avoiding suspicion, trying not to be found out by communicating too much."

Li Wanxuan saw that the surrounding people were getting more and more convinced and couldn’t help but interrupt, "It must be fake. How can any truth come out of this entertainment gossip? Deliberately avoiding suspicion means they’re not familiar. Don’t be so easily manipulated and ruin the reputation of a young girl!"

After speaking, seeing that the person with the highest status had spoken, everyone, having seen how much the couple had appreciated Jiang Lingxi over the past two days, didn’t dare to say anything more, no matter what they thought.

Once peace returned to her ears, Li Wanxuan relaxed her eyebrows and before closing her eyes again, she glanced at Shen Yunqing’s direction.

Seeing him calm, with deep eyes, she nodded in satisfaction.

It’s good to stay composed!

After her eyebrows were done, Li Wanxuan waved off her makeup artist. At her age, sitting still for a long time made her back hurt, and there was no need for overly heavy makeup, just something appropriate.

She glanced in the mirror and stood up, walking to sit opposite Shen Yunqing.

"What do you think about what Xu just said about that trending topic?"

She temporarily suppressed this topic in the makeup room, but didn’t need to think to know that, since it’s already trending, plenty of people know about it.

She had a good impression of Jiang Lingxi, who performed outstandingly on the show. It could be expected that once the show aired, this child would definitely become popular.

Perhaps precisely because of this, some people couldn’t sit still and stirred up such a scene because they can’t stand to see someone doing well!

The act was indeed despicable, but it was also admittedly effective.

Shen Yunqing tapped his phone screen, scrolling right to Jing Huai’s post, stating word by word, "Their intentions are despicable!"

Even Li Wanxuan was shaken by the murderous intent in the four words he voiced, "Well, no matter how angry we are, we absolutely can’t do anything illegal over this."

Young people tend to act impulsively for love, even her husband wasn’t an exception when he was young, but getting into legal trouble due to impulsiveness is never acceptable.

Shen Yunqing met the worry in the elderly person’s eyes in front of him, stayed silent for a moment, "Li, don’t worry. I’m aware."

"That’s good, that’s good. I felt you were stable from the first moment I saw you." She sighed with relief, then lowered her voice, "Someone can’t stand that Miss Jiang is doing well. Our show is only a recording, and the guests’ performances are known only to our crew." She suggested with a look towards Xu Qingmei’s direction.

She’s been observing coldly these past two days, and Xu Qingmei’s intention to cling to Shen Yunqing is quite obvious.

But Shen Yunqing would only speak more with Jiang Lingxi, and besides that, he treated her and old Shi with respect.

"Li, don’t worry, it’s being investigated."

"I see you know what you’re doing, then I can set my mind at ease."

Because of that glance from Shen Yunqing, Xu Qingmei was apprehensive and didn’t dare initiate conversation afterward.

The discussion in the makeup room about the trending topic was also timely stopped by Li Wanxuan, it didn’t spread like she had hoped.

This stalled progress made Xu Qingmei feel stifled.

And this frustration peaked when it was close to the start of the recording, upon seeing Jiang Lingxi walk out from the guests’ dressing room.

She grabbed the assistant next to her, gritting her teeth and asking, "Didn’t you say Shanyue Zhiheng’s dress wasn’t available for rent? Why is Jiang Lingxi wearing it?"

The assistant was confused, gasping for air with Xu Qingmei gripping her collar, and quickly defended, "At the time, the person from Shanyue Zhiheng I liaised with said it wasn’t for sale or rent not only to us, but to anyone."

Xu Qingmei couldn’t help but sneer, "So, Jiang Lingxi is not anyone?"

"Cough, cough, Mei Jie, Shanyue Zhiheng wouldn’t change their stance so randomly and embarrass themselves. I guess the dress is a knockoff!"

"Knockoff," Xu Qingmei murmured, her anger subsiding somewhat, "Right, with Jiang Lingxi’s status, there’s no way she could borrow Shanyue Zhiheng’s dress, especially that one, it must be a knockoff."

If it’s a knockoff, then it’s easy to handle.

After all, no one likes fakes.

First caught being in a relationship, then wearing a counterfeit dress, let’s see how Jiang Lingxi spins it!
