How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 254 Yang Xue: Am I here at the wrong time?
When Jiang Yu saw the figure pushing open the door of his dressing room and walking in, he was also stunned.

Even Chu Jingya, Xiaoyue, and the people from Jiang Yu's team were stunned.

Su Muwan was wearing a white dress. She hadn't entered the inner room at the moment. There was no heating, so she was wearing a down jacket. She looked cool and elegant. Her high heels made a "tapping" sound as she walked.

When everyone saw that the person coming was Su Muwan, everyone in the dressing room, except Director Hu, including Jiang Yu, was stunned.

Why is Su Muwan here?

Xiaoyue and the other employees on Jiang Yu's team were especially aware of Su Muwan's relationship with their boss. Now that Su Muwan had appeared, and had even come directly into the boss's dressing room, Xiaoyue and the other employees' eyes were filled with curiosity and confusion. But even more so, there was a hint of gossip that couldn't be concealed.

The relationship between the boss and the queen Su Muwan is no longer a secret. Now that Su Muwan appears here, it is obvious that she is here for the boss.

and……

Everyone looked at Su Muwan's expression, and her presence at that moment, and immediately thought of what Director Hu had just said about the guest appearances in this episode. Two of them were known to their boss, old acquaintances.

Isn’t this Teacher Su Muwan an old acquaintance?

Is she the guest star of this episode?

Jiang Yu also immediately thought of this and turned his head slightly to look at Director Hu, who had an ambiguous smile on his face, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Director Hu immediately smiled and said, "Haha, Xiao Su is here. Xiao Jiang, one of the flying guests this time is Xiao Su. How about it, we are old acquaintances, right? Haha, you guys chat first, the live broadcast is about to start, I have to go check it out."

Jiang Yu watched Director Hu. As he left, he patted his guest, his eyes hinting at something else. But before Jiang Yu could ask any more questions, Director Hu simply slipped away.

Looking at Director Hu's expression, Jiang Yu always felt that Director Hu was hiding something from him.

Xiaoyue and the others were also very considerate. Seeing Su Muwan coming over, the other members of the team immediately spoke up.

"Boss, everything is ready. Let's go out and take a look. I'll call you when we're ready to go on stage."

Xiaoyue immediately left with the others. Chu Jingya hesitated for a moment, looked at Su Muwan, then looked at the time before speaking.

"There are about twenty minutes left, you guys chat."

Although she really didn't want to leave, Chu Jingya saw that Xiaoyue and the others had left, and it seemed a bit inappropriate for her to stay here, so she followed them out.

Jiang Yu watched as everyone left, leaving only himself and Su Muwan in the dressing room.

At this moment, Su Muwan was standing in front of Jiang Yu, looking at him with a slight smile on her lips.

"What? Didn't you expect me to come?"

Jiang Yu pulled the stool next to him over for Su Muwan to sit on.

"I really didn't expect it. Look at you, you didn't even tell me you were going to be a guest. Director Hu is really something, he kept it a secret with you too."

Jiang Yu showed surprise on his face, but in his heart he had secretly blamed Director Hu hundreds of times.

Su Muwan being a guest was fine, but the key was that Yu Qing was also there, a permanent guest mentor. When they had interacted before, he could smell the tension from afar. Jiang Yu could even imagine what would happen when they met.

Hearing Jiang Yu's words and looking at the smile on Jiang Yu's face, Su Muwan sat on the stool, staring at Jiang Yu, and changed the subject and said something.

"I came to see if you were getting along well with your sister Yuqing and the other female students in your group."

Okay, here she comes. Sure enough, this woman’s purpose for participating in the show is definitely not simple.

Although the words were spoken gently, they were a bit cold. Even Jiang Yu could feel the resentment and jealousy in the tone.

Jiang Yu quickly reached out and held Su Muwan's small hands in his hands, feeling the softness and delicacy of Su Muwan's small hands. He gently played with her small hands while looking at Su Muwan, smiling and speaking softly.

"No, I'm just recording a program, just normal communication. Besides, it's not like I'm the only group with female students. Everyone chose me as a mentor because they trust me. I must do my best to help them compete, so it's inevitable that I'll have more contact with them."

Su Muwan snorted coldly. This guy might not have anything to do with the other students yet, but she had a feeling there was something going on with that little devil Song Yuqing. It was a woman's sixth sense. And even if it wasn't anything, given the relationship between this bastard and that little devil, their frequent interactions and contact on the show, what if something happened?

Jiang Yu moved the stool over and moved closer to Su Muwan, looking at her face to face. He reached out and pinched her beautiful face which felt very soft.

"Oh, look, it's only been a short while since we last met, and our Mu Wan has lost weight."

Su Muwan slapped away Jiang Yu's hands that were playing tricks on her face: "Stop it."

Jiang Yu looked at the fair and delicate face and the tempting red lips, and pulled her over and kissed her.

Su Muwan was shocked, thinking that this was the production crew's place. Although there was no one in the dressing room, it was almost time, and there was no telling who would push the door open and ask them to prepare for their performance.

She subconsciously wanted to push Jiang Yu away, put her hands on Jiang Yu's chest, and turned her head slightly to prevent Jiang Yu from continuing.

"Stop it, we have to record the show. I just finished putting on my makeup."

"It's okay, I'll just give you a kiss and then touch up your lipstick later."

Jiang Yu was just about to continue when the next moment he heard a clear sound of high heels hitting the ground outside.

"Da da da……"

The sound was getting closer and closer, and seemed to be coming towards Jiang Yu's dressing room.

Seeing this, Su Muwan immediately pushed Jiang Yu away, stood up, straightened her clothes and hair, and quickly took the lipstick and touched up her lipstick in front of the mirror.

Jiang Yu also turned and looked at the door of the dressing room, and was curious in his heart. Could it be that Sister Jingya came to call him to go on stage?
Just as Su Muwan had finished applying her lipstick, the door to the dressing room opened, and a figure wearing a red couture dress and a black down jacket walked in. When Jiang Yu saw this figure, his pupils shrank, his heartbeat quickened, and he immediately stood up from his stool.

Su Muwan also turned around, and the moment she saw the person coming, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Yang Xue!"

"Su Muwan!"

Both female voices spoke in surprise, and they looked at each other, obviously not expecting the other to be here.

Yang Xue was also stunned. Looking at Su Muwan standing next to Jiang Yu, a hint of shock and surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Why is Su Muwan here?

Yang Xue was a little confused. She had originally planned to attend the recording of "Tomorrow's Star" today, thinking of giving Jiang Yu a surprise. But who could have imagined that when she arrived, she would see Su Muwan, and it was Jiang Yu and her, alone in the dressing room.

Thinking of the relationship between Jiang Yu and Su Muwan, and the fact that Su Muwan and that jerk Jiang Yu had sung a duet together at the Lantern Festival Gala, Yang Xue was already a bit angry. Now, seeing Jiang Yu and Su Muwan alone together again, Yang Xue's face, which had been filled with a hint of surprise and a smile, suddenly turned cold.

Jiang Yu was completely stunned. He could sense how quickly Yang Xue's expression changed, and the cold gaze she cast upon him. It was as if she was questioning him, what on earth was going on? Why was Su Muwan alone with him in the dressing room?

Jiang Yu was completely bewildered. Seeing Yang Xue's presence, he hadn't expected her to actually be here. And looking at her attire, Jiang Yu immediately realized that Yang Xue might be here to participate in this episode of "Rising Star."

Now recalling what Director Hu said just now and the meaningful look in his eyes when he left, Jiang Yu suddenly understood.

Okay, okay, Director Hu, I consider you a good friend and a good brother, so you're just trying to trick me, right?
You didn't even tell me about this kind of thing in advance, you just kept it secret from me, right?
Although it was called a surprise, Jiang Yu felt that it was probably not a shock.

At this moment, Su Muwan and Yang Xue looked at each other. These two former good friends and besties now had a bit of hostility and coldness in their eyes. They were wary of and scrutinizing each other.

Afterwards, Jiang Yu felt that Su Muwan's gaze beside him shifted to him. Without looking over, Jiang Yu seemed to understand what she meant.

I was just asking myself, what was going on and why was Yang Xue here?
Yang Xue also looked at Jiang Yu in the same way, with two cold, questioning and scrutinizing gazes focused on Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu felt a chill down his spine. I didn't even know you guys were coming.

He smiled awkwardly: "Haha, well, Xuexue, Mu Wan, what a coincidence, you're both here to participate in the show."

"Hey, you guys are going to be guest stars, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Both women didn't want to pay any attention to this guy at the moment. Yang Xue glanced at Jiang Yu coldly, then looked at Su Muwan who was beside Jiang Yu, and spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Hey, you told me earlier? If you told me earlier, would you have been able to make arrangements earlier? It seems like I came at the wrong time and disturbed someone's good time."

Yang Xue looked at Su Muwan again, pretended to be indifferent and waved her hand in a relaxed manner.

"I won't bother you any more, you guys continue, I'm going to go on stage first."

Yang Xue snorted coldly, turned around and left. Jiang Yu was about to say something when the door of the dressing room was slammed shut by Yang Xue.

Su Muwan, who was standing next to Jiang Yu, glanced at him coldly, then snorted angrily and walked away with her long legs. The door to the dressing room slammed shut again, leaving Jiang Yu alone in the dressing room, lost in thought.

No, what’s going on? I didn’t do anything. Why are you all angry and leaving?
Well, it’s all Director Hu’s fault!
Jiang Yu secretly blamed Director Hu countless times. If he had told him earlier that Yang Xue and Su Muwan were coming, he would have been prepared. If he had known in advance that these two ladies were coming, he would never have stayed alone in the dressing room with Su Muwan.

Director Hu, Director Hu, you have misled me!

At this moment, there was a knock on the dressing room door, and then Xiaoyue's voice sounded outside the door.

"Boss, the live broadcast is about to begin. Get ready to go on stage."

Xiaoyue didn't come in, and her voice was not loud, just enough so as not to disturb the boss who might be doing something important inside.

Jiang Yu directly opened the door of the dressing room. Xiaoyue was still lying on the door and eavesdropping. As a result, after the door was opened, she lost her balance and almost fell into Jiang Yu's arms.

The little girl looked up at her boss with an embarrassed look on her face.

Oh my god, it really is true. My boss actually caught me eavesdropping!
Xiaoyue's face was a little red, but when she glanced at the dressing room, she didn't see Teacher Su Muwan. Looking at the boss, her clothes were very neat, and even her makeup and hairstyle were not messy.

It seems that I was overthinking it.

"Let's go."

Jiang Yu brought Xiaoyue and prepared to go on stage. Xiaoyue followed Jiang Yu. At this moment, the audience had all arrived, and the resident guest mentors had all appeared on stage one after another, except Jiang Yu.

When Jiang Yu sat down, he saw four seats on the side, which must be the seats prepared for the flying guests.

Song Yuqing sat next to Jiang Yu. She was wearing a white sweatshirt and a short skirt, which made her look very youthful and pretty. As soon as she saw Jiang Yu sitting down, she leaned in closer, pointed to the four empty seats nearby, and whispered in Jiang Yu's ear.

"Brother, I just heard Director Hu say that there will be four guest stars today. They also have voting rights. Do you know who they are?"

Song Yuqing always seemed to purposely get this close to Jiang Yu. Normally, Jiang Yu would have enjoyed it. But today, Jiang Yu glanced backstage and knew that the four guest stars, Yang Xue, and Su Muwan, were probably waiting there, ready to go on stage. Maybe they were staring at him now.

He moved slightly to the side, not appearing abrupt, not making Song Yuqing feel that he was deliberately keeping a distance, but he moved away a little naturally, pretending to look around.

"not sure."

Jiang Yu simply chose not to answer. Since Song Yuqing didn't know either, it meant that Director Hu hadn't previously told everyone who would be the guest stars for this episode. If he said he knew now, wouldn't Song Yuqing think he'd deliberately lied to her once Yang Xue and Su Muwan came on stage?
In this situation, since the other instructors don’t know, I might as well pretend that I don’t know.
