Chapter 923: Chapter 924 Starts Clashing

If Zhang Yifei could secure Li Changlin, there would indeed be some benefits. But if Li Changlin chose Xie Yixin, wouldn’t they all end up merely accompanying him?

No, it absolutely couldn’t go that way.

Even though joining Zhang Zhiqian had made the competition for participants more fierce,

Zhou Yufan was confident in himself, and he actually didn’t think highly of Zhang Yifei. After all, he knew Xie Yixin and Ye Xiyao were good friends.

If Li Changlin really had any relationship with Ye Xiyao, such a relationship would definitely become Xie Yixin’s trump card.

"You all have already forfeited, how can you start over now?" However, Zhang Yifei’s mindset was clearly different from Zhou Yufan’s. Although she also knew about Xie Yixin and Ye Xiyao’s relationship, she considered Ye Xiyao’s scandal unreliable.

Especially since Zhang Yifei didn’t think that Li Changlin would dare to admit his relationship with Ye Xiyao in such a setting.

Even if Li Changlin really had a relationship with Ye Xiyao, on such a stage, the only thing to do was to clear both parties’ names.

Though admitting it directly would certainly earn Li Changlin quite a few points, considering the star power of Ye Xiyao and Xie Yixin, it would definitely help earn a lot of scores from the audience and judges.

But doing so would mean putting Ye Xiyao on the spot.

Being a Heavenly Queen celebrity, once such a romantic scandal got out, it would greatly impact her image and advertising collaborations.

If Li Changlin was so tactless, then he definitely wouldn’t be a good match for Ye Xiyao.

Zhang Yifei believed that, for whatever reasons, Li Changlin would not choose Xie Yixin as his mentor.

Now, only she and Xie Yixin were competing on stage. Since Li Changlin wouldn’t choose Xie Yixin, the only choice left was her.

If it went Zhou Yufan’s way, she would have gained a powerful contender like Zhang Zhiqian, a situation much worse compared to her current position.

Thus, Zhang Yifei certainly had to reject her husband’s suggestion.

Besides, the rules of the Xuanyuan The Voice had never allowed those who forfeited to reconsider their choices.

Since they had forfeited, that meant giving up all their rights; having forfeited themselves, why would others give them a chance to be reinstated?

"Sister Zhang, saying this is pointless." Seeing Zhou Yufan and Zhang Yifei in disagreement, Zhang Zhiqian, naturally pleased, said, "If it weren’t for your deliberate misleading of Brother Zhou and me, we definitely wouldn’t have forfeited!"

"What do you mean by ’deliberate misleading’? Brother Zhang, your words are even more pointless." Gone was the formality, Zhang Yifei said assertively, "This is called a diversion tactic. Blame yourselves for being naive enough to actually believe the contestant was a beauty. Besides, don’t you know the saying ’all’s fair in war?’ Especially since both of you thought contestant number thirty was good, why choose to forfeit then? I even told you that you could have turned the lights on if you didn’t forfeit!"

Well, everything seemed right according to her. Zhou Yufan and Zhang Zhiqian exchanged looks, utterly frustrated.

It was frustrating; they didn’t expect to be outsmarted by Zhang Yifei.

Honestly, they were too principled.

In the situation, whether Li Changlin was male or female, they could have chosen to turn the lights on.

If Li Changlin had been a beauty, they could have simply refrained from competing.

Had it been the other way around, it would have given them a chance to turn things around.

But now, it was too late; they couldn’t argue against Zhang Yifei.

Given her blunt nature, she was quite capable of rendering the two speechless.

Helplessly, Zhou Yufan and Zhang Zhiqian looked pleadingly at the hosts.

Honestly, Wang Han>NN and Lu Piaopiao had never encountered such a situation. Initially, they too were amused at Xie Yixin and Zhang Yifei for deliberately presenting Li Changlin as a beauty. But now, feeling the helpless gazes of Zhou Yufan and Zhang Zhiqian, they suddenly felt overwhelmed.

What to do with this situation?

The two hosts exchanged glances, each coming up with an excellent idea.

"This matter can be judged by our panel of judges!" Wang Han lightly suggested, skillfully passing the responsibility to the five judges.

"I also think it’d be good to hear our judges’ opinions—whether to give instructors Zhou Yufan and Zhang Zhiqian another chance. Let’s hear what our judges have to say." Lu Piaopiao raised a gesture, drawing attention to the five judges sitting on the right.

"I believe that contestant number thirty’s use of a female voice was to deliberately attract attention; this is a desecration of art. Therefore, I suggest that the instructors oppose such contestants and disqualify him immediately!" To everyone’s astonishment, Lin Qiao’en, the first judge, started off with a bang, leaving the crowd speechless.

"This suggestion, Mr. Lin, isn’t it a bit too harsh?" Wang Han was also a bit dumbfounded. He never expected that by refereeing to the judges, Lin Qiao’en would give him such a surprise.

Damn it, if the instructors really kicked Li Changlin off the stage because of this, that would blow things completely out of proportion.

Such malice—akin to murdering one’s parents; it was an irreconcilable enmity.

If Li Changlin was kicked off the stage today because of his statement, damn it, it would be strange if Li Changlin didn’t loathe him!

"Whether it’s too harsh or not, I don’t care. What the instructors decide to do is none of my concern; this is just my personal opinion," Lin Qiao’en retorted dismissively.

After all, he was just expressing his dissatisfaction; he knew that Li Changlin had his own judgments.

Because of this guy, his favorite niece, Ruonan, had repeatedly defied the family’s arranged marriage plans, eventually even staging a fake matchmaking scheme with Zhou Xingxing, almost amusing him to death.

Also because Ruonan was close to her aunt Lin Qiao’en from a young age, she had proactively told her about the fake matchmaking with Zhou Xingxing. But both Ruonan and Zhou Xingxing were unaware that both the Lin Family and Zhou Family were very serious about the marriage!

Soon, the gate to the Otherworld would open. Once the Otherworld Envoys arrived, it would definitely bring numerous opportunities to many families.

If the Zhou Family and the Lin Family formed an alliance, even though it still couldn’t compare to the Capital City Eight Great Aristocratic Families, the combined strength of the two families would definitely attract the attention of the Otherworld Envoy.
