Lu Siyu was on the verge of going crazy. She cursed Lu Miao in her heart and immediately burst into tears, saying, “Lu Miao, how dare you spread lies about me! I have never hated you or sabotaged any program recording. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Xingyu. It was her own idea to come and see Ziheng.

Back then, when I was switched at birth, I was also a victim. My parents preferred me and insisted on keeping me; it wasn’t my intention to stay. I’ve told them countless times that I want to leave and asked them to treat you better, but they disagreed. But I’ve already paid you back everything I owed. You can’t defame me like this!”

Beside her, Gu Xingyu saw Lu Siyu being scolded and crying, so she stepped forward and berated, “Lu Miao, it’s you who took everything from Sister Siyu, stole her engagement with my second brother, and took the spotlight from her at school. And now you want to steal the limelight in the entertainment industry. How dare you defame her!”

Lu Miao sighed and looked at Lu Siyu, “So, that’s how you told Xingyu, huh?”

Gu Ziheng quickly joined in, with a hundred expressions in his eyes, “No wonder Miao Miao hasn’t entered the Gu family and hasn’t met Xingyu before, yet Xingyu already dislikes her. It turns out someone has been instigating and manipulating behind the scenes. Siyu, Xingyu has always treated you like a real sister. How can you bear to corrupt her like this?”

All three of them were skilled actors, each outdoing the other in expressing their grievances and emotions genuinely.

Indeed, Lu Siyu was clever. Her tearful outburst successfully shifted the focus away from the arranged marriage to the topic of being switched at birth. She portrayed herself as a victim as well, blurring the lines between her and Lu Miao.

The onlookers were starting to waver in their sympathy for her, but when Gu

Xingyu joined in, along with the quick and coordinated response from Lu Miao and Gu Ziheng, the situation quickly changed. The topic shifted back, and they even added an accusation of instigating Gu Xingyu.

The program’s staff began to speak up, “I knew she was refusing to leave for a reason. Could she really be trying to sabotage our program recording?” “Yeah, the live broadcast is starting in half an hour. What is she up to?” “Hurry up and leave. Can you take responsibility if you delay our program?”

All the staff immediately started ushering her away, not even giving her a chance to speak.

Lu Siyu felt utterly embarrassed and humiliated. In her heart, she cursed Gu Xingyu as an idiot. Gritting her teeth and wiping away her tears, she turned around and ran away with a sense of grievance.

“Wait for me, Sister Siyu!” Gu Xingyu called out, turning back to glare at Lu Miao, “You despicable and shameless person, I won’t let you off.”

Then she chased after Lu Siyu.

The crowd of onlookers dispersed after the drama, each going back to their own work.

In this acting showdown, Gu Ziheng and Lu Miao emerged as clear winners!

Gu Ziheng approached Lu Miao with a smile, proudly showing off his handsome face. “How was my performance just now? My reactions were lightning fast, right?”

Lu Miao patted his shoulder and replied, “You did well. Your acting was superb, worthy of praise.”

With a satisfied snort, Gu Ziheng said, “Of course! You can rest assured that as long as I’m around, she won’t have any chance to bully you.”

Lu Siyu, thinking she could smear Lu Miao in front of him, was simply delusional!

Apart from Lu Miao, all the contestants and on-site staff had gone through repeated rehearsals.

The recording of the final went smoothly, with each contestant showcasing their full potential. The young girls gave it their all, and the program instantly dominated the ratings during its time slot.

When it was Lu Miao’s turn to perform, the live stream on the video platform was flooded with barrage comments.

The on-site director understood the audience well and focused the camera on Lu Miao’s face with extreme close-ups and 360-degree rotations. The makeup artist also took a creative approach, accentuating her inherent traits and giving her a cool and stunning appearance, full of charm and charisma.

The barrage was filled with screams of excitement, and the program quickly dominated the hot search list on Weibo, with TV ratings soaring.

Throughout Gu Ziheng’s performance, there were very few shots of him, and Lu Miao’s face was nearly frozen.

But when she came off stage, although the ratings dropped slightly, it still maintained the top spot for the time slot. And when she came on stage to announce the final ranking and debut order, the ratings spiked again.

As Lu Miao hadn’t left any contact information with anyone, not even Gu Ziheng or the “Youth Trainee” program crew, their phones were ringing non-stop.

All the entertainment companies wanted to get in touch with her for a contract.

Lu Miao treated everyone equally and rejected all offers.

The program ended with a big bang that night. The TV station hosted a celebratory banquet for all the contestants and staff.

Looking at the time, the program had lasted for over three hours, and it was already past 10 p.m.

The Hai family’s issues were waiting for her to resolve back home.

After informing Gu Ziheng, she said she would head back first.

Gu Ziheng knew she didn’t like crowds and was afraid she would be bothered with signing contracts, so he immediately said, “Then I’ll drive you back.” Before Lu Miao could refuse, he took her hand and led her to his car.

Outside the TV station, Lu Siyu, whose recording had also ended, watched Lu Miao being surrounded by stars and walking away with Gu Ziheng. Hatred nearly overflowed from her eyes.

Her agent, Qin Yue, came out of the TV station, glanced at her, and said directly, “I’ve already made arrangements on Weibo. If anyone posts negative information about you, it will be deleted immediately. The company will deal with Lu Miao’s matter. Even if you dislike her, take care of yourself and avoid any conflicts with her. You know the dirts you have on yourself, and any conflict with her will only bring you trouble. I won’t be able to save you then. Reflect on yourself tonight.”

The news of the incident between Lu Siyu and Lu Miao at Hall 3 quickly spread throughout the TV station. It explained why Lu Siyu always avoided discussing her family background, as it turned out to be quite complicated.

At first, Gu Ziheng thought Lu Siyu’s previous actions, like leaking information at the Lychee Studio, were just due to her young age and a momentary desire to compete. Now, it seemed that her character itself was the problem.

He realized that if she didn’t change her ways, she would eventually expose her true colors, and no one would be able to save her.

After escorting Lu Miao back, Gu Ziheng went to the celebration banquet.

Lu Miao returned to her room, freshened up, changed her clothes, and put on a new disguise. Then she headed to the Hai family’s villa.

It was already past 11 p.m., but the lights were still on at the Hai family’s villa. From a distance, Lu Miao saw Mr. and Mrs. Hai standing outside the gate, shivering and afraid to enter.

As soon as they spotted Lu Miao, they rushed forward as if they had seen a savior, eagerly greeting her..
