Chapter 1492: Chapter 440: Fans
"Wuh... wuwuwu..."
In the hospital room, the joys and sorrows of people do not connect.
Bai Letian watched as Bai Yi’s emotions completely broke down, and his expression changed slightly at once.
He knelt on the ground, glancing left and right down the hospital corridor behind him.
As he saw the twilight flickering with a swamp-like eerie green, and the entire hospital devoid of anyone else, his expression changed involuntarily.
"Gua..."
So, he had to grit his teeth, quietly shifting his knees, moving towards Zuo Jiangqin and his own daughter in swaddling clothes.
"Ka ka ka!"
At this moment, with the shift of the world line, the entire world began to destabilize.
A terrifying aura seeped through reality, making Bai Yi, who was crying, get goosebumps.
That was, a consequence called "Obliteration."
"..."
There’s no more time...
If I don’t hurry...
Must do it before then...
"Ah, ah, ah, ah!!"
So, Bai Yi ignored the grief, suddenly raising the blade, aiming at the baby in Zuo Jiangqin’s arms.
"No!"
"Cha!"
In an instant, Bai Letian gritted his teeth, one hand grabbing the blade, the other grabbing Bai Yi’s wrist, preventing her from stabbing down.
"Tss!"
Blood trickled from Bai Letian’s hand, contorting his face in pain.
"Husband!"
Seeing this, Zuo Jiangqin also risked it all, holding the child while giving Bai Yi a kick, forcing her back.
But Bai Yi kept a firm grip on the blade, letting it slide out of Bai Letian’s palm.
"How...are you?"
"I’m fine..."
Bai Letian, holding his bleeding palm, originally wanted to rush forward to take advantage of Bai Yi’s imbalance to subdue her.
But at this moment, Bai Yi, gritting her teeth, had already taken out a pocket watch.
"Tick...tick..."
A terrifying feeling arose in Bai Letian’s heart.
And now, outside the hospital walls, they were densely packed with toads, croaking, watching them.
In the hallway behind, many toads also appeared, hopping and entering the room.
"No...no, we have to go!"
Bai Letian, terrified, even began to suspect he was having a nightmare.
But he didn’t hesitate at all, just scooped Zuo Jiangqin up in his arms, running towards the door.
And in Zuo Jiangqin’s arms, there was still a baby.
"Tap tap tap..."
"Time...pause..."
But at this moment, inside the door, Bai Yi, holding the knife, just spoke lightly.
"Boom!!"
An invisible wave exploded like a nuclear blast, freezing everything in the world.
"Tick...tick..."
[How do I pick up the pieces of my broken heart?]
[With full defenses, I just want to hide in a corner]
[Speaking my truth, I’m really tired...]
[After all the twists and turns, what do I even gain?]
"Um, thank you everyone..."
On stage, the little girl named "Bai Yi" finished her song and bowed to the audience.
Then, she nervously pursed her lips, glanced at the judges below, and then turned to leave the stage.
As she was about to exit, her mother’s words still echoed in her mind,
"You have to get first place, okay?! The first place resources of Yasaka Company are very good...others are no match for you, work hard, do your best!"
"..."
At this moment, the judges nodded, exchanging glances with each other.
However, the middle-aged man who was there during No. 67 was no longer there.
"Not bad... not bad..."
"Hmm..."
At the same time, they showed each other their scores.
A full score is ten, among the five judges, three gave nine points, one gave ten, and one gave eight.
"This little girl has a lot of talent, although she’s a bit stage-frightened, to sing like this at such a young age is really rare..."
"Yes, she’s a whole grade above her peers... if nothing unexpected happens, she’ll be this year’s first place..."
However, after one of the judges said this, another judge sitting next to the middle-aged man earlier lightly coughed,
"Everyone, don’t forget, the president really likes No. 67..."
"..."
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent for a second.
Immediately, they exchanged glances and silently adjusted Bai Yi’s score.
Adjusting it a bit lower than the little boy of No. 67.
"..."
Soon, the last few children also finished their performances.
People from Yasaka Company placed all the scores and rankings on the electronic display and then specifically approached the children and parents who ranked at the top.
"Congratulations, Mr. Ooi, your child is first place..."
"..."
"Congratulations, Ms. Zuo, your child is second place..."
"Ah, thank you...thank you..."
Zuo Jiangqin accepted the trophy handed by the staff with a beaming face, waving goodbye to him as he left.
But as soon as he walked far enough to be out of sight, Zuo Jiangqin’s face immediately fell.
She immediately turned a cold face, looking at her daughter next to her with an instrument in her arms and a pale face, questioning,
"What happened?! You couldn’t even beat that Ooi?! I saw his previous training; it was very mediocre!!"
"Mom, I’m... I’m sorry..."
"It’s not me you’re sorry for, it’s yourself!"
Seeing Bai Yi’s eyes go red, Zuo Jiangqin angrily yanked her ear, making Bai Yi whimper with pain,
"I heard the kid who went No. 68 was also really good, but didn’t participate this time; if he did, would you have gotten third place?!"
"Wuwu... wu..."
"I’ve told you long ago, this opportunity is a rare one, we really need this first place! You know the situation at home, yet you’re still so lazy and slack!"
