Ye Ning listened to everyone’s discussion, only to hear someone behind her say that the show was about to start and all the contestants were being called to the stage.

Backstage, An Keke glared at Ye Ning, involuntarily scoffing, but Ye Ning didn’t care at all, she just stood in her designated position.

As the music in front started playing, a top-tier singer finished singing a recently popular pop song, and then the host announced, "Now, let’s welcome the main attraction of the day, our cover beauties to the stage!"

The first one to go on stage is..."

The music surged, and the first contestant ascended the stage.

Ye Ning was the penultimate one, with Lin Yuying being the last.

First, the entrance, followed by the talent performance.

When An Keke went on stage, her talent performance was a dance, a powerful modern dance that caused a wave of heat to sweep across the audience.

Soon, it was Ye Ning’s turn. Ye Ning also chose dance, a classical one. Since she didn’t have a knack for dance, her choice was deliberate; classical dances didn’t have a lot of movements, a brief display was sufficient.

A symphony of classical music began playing.

Dressed in fiery red garments, she rose up from the stage’s lift, as if a blossoming winter plum gradually appearing before the audience.

An icy beauty, flamboyance, and a royal oppressiveness emanated from her utterly perfect face.

As if a newborn sunrise, piercing the cold with specks of light.

Between her gestures, a faint aura of a king emanated, hitting the audience head-on.

The queen-like deja vu spread across her face.

Her make-up, matching her bright red outfit exceptionally, stirred a ripple in the audience.

"Wow, so beautiful!"

"This contestant is too gorgeous!"

...

Originally, Ye Zi was watching and expecting to see Ye Ning embarrass herself, but the moment Ye Ning appeared, the crowd erupted in cheers. Looking at her captivating makeup that ignited countless cheers from the audience, the men’s eyes were glued, and the women were filled with astonishment.

It was rare for a woman’s beauty to be appreciated by both men and women, yet, Ye Ning had managed to do just that.

For a moment, Ye Zi looked at everyone’s reaction, her hands clenched in anger.

"Lin Shu, what the hell did you do!" she demanded.

But Lin Shu had no clue what went wrong; she could only stare in surprise, thinking that dealing with Ye Ning was quite a formidable task indeed.
