Chapter 716: Chapter 716: Don’t Want to Go
"...there’s been quite a bit of criticism on Smile 9’s singing and dancing skills online recently. The public performance this time will include them singing live. As the C position and main vocalist of the group, make sure to be in your best condition," said Arnold.
Although talent shows have been popular domestically, they’ve consistently been criticized for only selecting trainees who can attract attention, while their abilities are far from comparable to foreign groups.
The majority of fans defend their idols passionately, boasting about them in all sorts of ways in their daily reviews. Unfortunately, this only makes them more repellent to others.
After all, no matter how much fans brag, it won’t make their idols’ skills improve dramatically.
It is merely a facade.
Teresa Gordon, being an experienced manager, naturally understands the true skill level of the groups under her management. The only one who could really hold their ground was Hannah, so she never passes up any opportunity that might bring benefit.
The car turned around the winding mountain road, and Hannah leaned against the window naturally, half-opening her eyes, speaking in a flat tone, "Cancel the cocktail party for me tomorrow, I don’t want to go."
Teresa frowned, her expression disapproving, "The cocktail party tomorrow is hosted by the main sponsors of the event, and many big names in the industry were invited. You are in the limelight lately, making an appearance there won’t do you any harm."
Some things didn’t need to be said directly, everyone in this circle understood it.
Such a young and naive girl, with such an alluring face, it was inevitable that people would covet her.
Teresa originally planned to persuade Hannah again, but was surprised when she agreed to go.
Seeing that Hannah didn’t dwell on the decision for long, Teresa didn’t say anything more, glancing at the time, "It’s 1 am now. You have to get up at 4 to do your makeup and get dressed. So, you still have three hours of rest time."
Hannah now fully awake muttered, "Three hours, enough to do something."
She sighed and started playing with her phone. It didn’t take long before a reply arrived, and her face immediately brightened up, a smile on her face that she just couldn’t hide.

Teresa really did cherish Hannah like her own eyeball, even choosing a hotel room right next to hers. On the other side, she arranged for an assistant to stay.
Hannah was essentially sandwiched in the middle.
Arnold Simmons, who had pushed back a whole day’s work, was about to set off when he received a message from Hannah.
He lightly tapped on the smilling face on the screen, but his gaze changed slightly when he saw the latest message.
- Come quietly, don’t let anyone find out.
This made Arnold think of the "thrills" Hannah had mentioned a few days ago.
This was a normal thing, but now one of them was a popular idol in a girl group constantly exposed to cameras, and the other was someone who was supposedly dead to the outside world.
It was indeed a bit... "clandestine"?
Thinking about this, Arnold frowned, a chill appearing in his slightly narrow eyes, an endless darkness at the depth of these ocular orbs, yet they relaxed quickly.
His gaze softened, rippling with infinite tenderness.
After receiving instructions from Arnold, the driver had no question and immediately turned the car towards the hotel.
It was half-past 1 in the morning.
A knock sounded at the tightly closed room door.
She didn’t even ask who it was and had already opened the door.
Arnold frowned, not getting a chance to say anything before Hannah peeped out from the open door.
Her face was clear and glowing.
