The Mysterious Superstar : Quick transmigration to CEO - Chapter 25

Gu Mingyu and Li Qiuqiu found themselves in a awkward situation. They couldn’t just agree to it. Helplessly Gu Mingyu looked at Principal Liu asking for the next step.

Principal Liu nodded at him hinting that they should let Mo Ran continue.

“Interesting. I wonder what’d you prepare for?” Gu Mingyu settled back to his previous funky host mode since he can’t let Yan Shu take over him.

“Let’s place bets on my performance. Hit vs flop. The ones who thinks I will make a hit place bets on my wechatpay and the ones who thinks it will be a flop, Principal Liu won’t mind lending the school’s wechat pay to you all. If I win, all the money placed on either of the two will be mine and if I lose you all will be getting back your money.” Yan Shu smugly described her plan. As expected a chaos formed and the silent hall became noisy once again.

Principal Liu was speechless. He was having a bad feeling about it.

The hot topic was where to bet.

“One more thing, the bets will start from 100 yuan, no less than that.” She added.

“Yo… Mo Ran all the way… I will be cheering on you hard betting 500 yuan for you.” Sheng Chen shouted from her seat.

‘She sure deserves to be at the bottom place.’ Beside Sheng Chen, Ren Zhenting and Huan Shi shook their heads.

The bet ratio was now 40:60. Even the guests didn’t feel reluctant to bet.

‘Woah, my account is getting its fill. It wasn’t a waste coming here since I made money.’ Yan Shu stared at her phone notifications and smiled inwardly.

“Wait, we lack one more thing- judges.” Yan Shu suddenly remembered the main purpose.

Everyone looked at each other confused.

“Senior Zeng Chi is well versed I’m both music and dance. She is a level 5 pianist and has participated in the international dance competition as one of the Country K candidates as a ballet Dancer. I guess none is more experienced than her. So she can be the judge alongside Old Master Su and Principal Liu.” Some students suggested.

“Level 5? Huh? Pardon but I think she isn’t enough.” Yan Shu didn’t bother to give Zeng Chi a face. She’s just a kid to Yan Shu.

Backstage, Zeng Chi was smiling smugly when she heard her classmates and juniors praising her but the next second when she heard Yan Shu, her face dropped. She clenched her fists under her long sleeves covering her palms. If not for maintaining her image she would’ve already blasted off the backstage room with her rage and directly dashing to the stage to beat Mo Ran in a pulp.

“This newbie is such a arrogant girl. How can she say you’re not enough? Look at her smugness, huh!” Zeng Chi’s friend scoffed beside her.

“Don’t mind her. Maybe she is really on another level and I can’t compare to her. We’ll know once we see her perform.” Zeng Chi replied with a smile pretending like Mo Ran’s words didn’t matter to her but actually inside she was mocking.

“Yeah. Let’s wait and see her humiliating herself.” Her friend nodded.

“Let’s do it this way. I believe our school forum has quite a lot of followers so let’s do a livestream with the school’s account to livestream the performance and the audiences will decide if it was good or not. Since, you all are betting your money I don’t trust your judgements cause you might lie to get your money back.”Her melancholic voice dumbfounded everyone present there. Although they were getting insulted they didn’t think that way rather felt Mo Ran did have a point.

‘Miss Su looks so bossy!’ Assistant Hu felt like he finally found his long-lost idol as he stared at Yan Shu with his big bright eyes.

“I also request Old Master Su , Mr. Morgan Luo and Mr. MU Shao to promote the livestream with your profiles.” Yan Shu smiled slyly glancing at the people sitting in the front seats.

Mu Shao + Old Master Su :-

‘This is so unexpected of Ranran but why does she look so cool with that attitude!!’

Beside them Morgan was grinning, ‘Ash is slaying even with this teenage body.’

When everyone thought she’ve crossed the line now by shamelessly asking them to promote her, the next words they heard made their world collapsed.

“We don’t mind promoting you not only with our accounts but also with our company’s accounts.” The three said in unison making everyone gasp.

‘Didn’t that say Morgan Luo was a strict person with principles, they sure were spreading false rumors! But why they are supporting her when I’ve worked so hard all these years to stand out?’ Li Qiuqiu was burning in anger inside. Too bad she couldn’t take it out now that she was the one who started it.

Li Qiuqiu always enjoyed limelight in her previous middle school but after coming in Jin Ling she was overshadowed with Zeng Chi and Mei Qian who was a hooligan to look at but had good results. She has been trying hard to surpass the two even to the point of imitating many of Zeng Chi’s features only to gain a few admirer. Now that Mo Ran was here, the little fame she gained in school was now also at stake. If not for Zeng Chi wanting to humiliate Mo Ran, she wouldn’t have agreed with her in this plan. Now she regretted it. The only thing she can hope for now is that Mo Ran insults herself with her performance. But the fear inside her wasn’t leaving her in any way since she knew nothing about Mo Ran. The past few days, she’s been trying to find something about her but to no avail. She even took pictures of Mo Ran getting out and in of a Black new edition bentley when coming and leaving to school. But to her surprise, before she could post it it automatically gets deleted by itself which strengthened her doubts on Mo Ran.

“Ask all the artists under Shengting to share the livestream. They will be given bonuses.” Su Jiacheng instructed his assistant.

Since everyone was giving their best how can Si Junyan be left out.

[Si Junyan : Share it (link attached)]

[Si Junmo : My gain?]

[Si Junyan : I’ll give it a thought on your new movie.]

[Si Junmo : My fairies will vote for the lady with all of their might. Rest assured.]

Inside the green room, Si Junmo suddenly jumped off from his seat startling his manager , assistants and the stylists.

“What happened?” The Manger asked anxiously.

“Call Director Xu. We got an investor for the movie. No more trouble looking for several investors.” Si Junmo grinned.

“You Sure? Did President Si really agreed? How come?” The manager was shocked. They had been trying to get Si Junyan to invest on the movie for more than three months but the pesturing didn’t work. He even stopped receiving Si Junmo’s call due to this matter. So he was quite  surprised that he suddenly agreed.

“Ofcourse, it’s cause he loves his younger brother.” Si Junmo sheepishly smiled at his manager.

‘Huh! We know how he treats you.’ The manager wished he could say it aloud but since he got him to agree no matter the reason he couldn’t find any words to retort.

[Morgan : Loops, time to work as a PR.] He also attached the link in the message.

The livestream started.

[Hello, everyone. This is Gu Mingyu,your host for tonight. We are currently celebrating the 60th anniversary of Jing Ling No.1 high school…] Gu Mingyu described the purpose and reason for the live stream.

At first, there were only 50 viewers but in the midway it kept increasing and increasing till 100,000 viewers when he was done talking. Moreover, it was increasing more making him stunned.

‘Is it cause I am popular?’ He inwardly thought.

“Let’s welcome Mo Ran from sophomore year on the stage now” Gu Mingyu then left the stage.
