CHAPTER 219: CHAPTER 219: LYCHEE CP IS THE REAL DEAL!

The girl next to her said nothing.

Gu Yiyi’s icy gaze was fixed on Gu Zhi, her eyes filled with hatred.

Because of her, she hadn’t dared to go out these past few days, let alone show her face.

It was said that even the endorsements her manager had lined up for her were snatched by Gu Zhi, turning all her resources into Gu Zhi’s!

Today, the director of this show invited her, so she had the opportunity to come over.

If she continues to stay out of sight, she will be eliminated by the market.

As long as the Gu Family does not acknowledge or publicly reveal Gu Zhi’s identity, no matter what netizens say, it will be useless.

That’s why she dared to appear here today.

Today’s stage, she must outperform Gu Zhi to regain the upper hand.

The entire audience had various thoughts.

At the same time, various leaks were also posted online by marketing accounts.

Entertainment news: "It’s rumored that Gu Zhi was invited by Han Liheng to participate in the third recording of ’New Star Girl,’ and Gu Yiyi appeared for the first time since the real and fake heiress scandal to join the program as well. Are you all excited? [Image][Image]"

The marketing accounts posted several photos, including Han Liheng under Gu Zhi’s building bringing her breakfast, as well as photos of Gu Zhi and Gu Yiyi appearing at the training base, evidently leaked by crew members.

These few photos quickly caused a huge uproar online.

After all, the entire internet had been consumed with gossip about Gu Zhi and Gu Yiyi’s heiress scandal, thinking they wouldn’t see the two on the same stage. Yet, who would have thought that Gu Yiyi would dare to appear on the same program as Gu Zhi!

"Damn, this is the first appearance of fake heiress Gu Yiyi after the last show ended, and she actually dares to appear on the same program as Gu Zhi?"

"Aah! Did the real and fake heiresses meet? Can’t wait to see it, will they fight? Is there a live broadcast of this show?"

"Fake heiress, my ass. You’re the fake one. When did the Gu Family ever acknowledge Gu Zhi’s authenticity? Get out of here, opportunists!"

"Wow, isn’t ’New Star Girl’ a talent show? Are Gu Zhi and Gu Yiyi going to be guest performers? Are they going to perform on the same stage again? Didn’t Gu Yiyi get enough of a beatdown before? /dog emoji."

"What? Is my wife’s stage variety show coming up? Aah, thank you Brother Burger, you truly deserve the Temple of Heaven!"

"Incredible, Brother Burger actually queued to buy breakfast for Zhi Zhi, and even fed her by hand. Who isn’t shipping them? I’ll just say, my Lychee CP is the truest love, Lychee CP all the way!!!"

"..."

Discussions online were endless, with various opinions.

But what netizens were most concerned about was the first time Gu Zhi and Gu Yiyi shared the stage after the scandal, what would happen?

Given their tense atmosphere in the variety show, wouldn’t they tear into each other this time!?

However, ’New Star Girl’ is not a live variety show, so eating up this gossip in real-time isn’t possible.

Everyone could only keep searching for real-time news about ’New Star Girl.’

In no time, the popularity and search volume of ’New Star Girl’ skyrocketed to unprecedented heights.

In the control room, the directing team kept an eye on the monitors and watched the rapidly climbing topic temperature online, feeling that they’d never made a more correct decision!

As long as Gu Zhi and Gu Yiyi shared the stage, there would be topics to discuss.

That means their show wouldn’t lack heat and recognition!

When the time comes, this talent show is bound to catch fire.

Meanwhile, at the airport, the ’Dear Family’ show team, seeing the continuously updated real-time topics online, could only grind their teeth in frustration.

They originally thought their show would be the first time Gu Zhi and Gu Yiyi appeared together since the heiress scandal.

Their live broadcast tonight would have reached peak attention and popularity,

but unexpectedly, the talent show ’New Star Girl’ beat them to it!

Both Gu Zhi and Gu Yiyi delayed their appearance on the show, only to attend this variety show instead!

The entire directing team looked utterly heartbroken.

But fortunately, soon enough, those who couldn’t find any leaks of ’New Star Girl’ quickly returned, leaving messages under the ’Family’ variety show:

"That show doesn’t show anything, and you’ll have to wait till next week to watch the pre-recorded broadcast. Isn’t the family variety show going live tonight? Can’t wait!"

"Let’s look forward to our family instead. Zhi Zhi, when will you return to the live broadcast? Can we start on time at 2 PM this afternoon? Waiting with bated breath."

The directing team felt a little better after seeing these messages.

As for broadcasting live at 2 PM... that was naturally impossible.

Meanwhile, the pre-recording site for ’New Star Girl.’

F Class, D Class, and C Class had all quickly performed.

A stage performance lasts only three to four minutes, and time flew by.

Yet, for all the trainees, it was incredibly grueling.

The performances of the previous classes were all unremarkable, or should I say uneven, with limited room for improvement, only one or two stood out, temporarily advancing.

Soon, it was A Class’s turn.

Rumor had it that Gu Zhi was appearing, and being personally coached by Han Liheng, all of A Class was highly anticipated.

As soon as the host announced them, everyone’s eyes focused on A Class, but for the moment, they didn’t see Gu Zhi.

"Where is Gu Zhi? Wasn’t it said that she’s appearing to assist A Class? Why isn’t she visible?"

"Oh wow, she’s here to assist? Wouldn’t that mean A Class’s performance will stand out? Her performance during the live stream blew me away."

"Pfft, as if. She only danced that girl group dance that one time; that doesn’t guarantee she will perform well this time. Besides, the strength gap between A Class and S Class is far too wide, okay?"

"So where is she? Why can’t we see her, is it the last one in the cap?"

The discussions under the stage continued as everyone tried to spot Gu Zhi.

Unfortunately, the stage lights were too dim to see clearly for a moment.

Even S Class couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat; the captain of S Class had a more serious expression than ever before.

It wasn’t until the music started and the spotlights came down on the stage.

A Class’s eleven girls stood in a trapezoidal formation.

Each was brimming with tension, excitement, yet youthful spirit.

But still, nobody could see Gu Zhi’s figure.

"Like electricity running through the body

A dizzying feeling that’s cold and refreshing"

The lead singer’s deep voice echoed, sending shivers down the spines of those present.

Everyone’s focused gaze on the stage, seriously appreciating their performance.

"Where is this

The serious me, who am I really"

Eleven girls’ dance steps unfolded with their singing, their movements fluid, swift, and bold.

The crowd soon noticed that the movements of these A Class girls were much more powerful than the previous performances!

They were no longer breathless and struggling, but rather strong and powerful, a blend of strength and grace.

As if every beat, every breath, carried a force.

And then with a bang, the peak sound echoed, and a tall figure emerged from behind the girls.

The person was dressed in simple black long pants, a tight black T-shirt, and a black baseball cap.

Her appearance was accompanied by simple interactions with the nearby girls, whether holding hands, teasing their chin, or taking off their hat.

Her long legs, smooth, powerful steps, and spins were utterly captivating at every step.

Screams instantly erupted from the audience below.
