I desperately want to win on the peninsula

Chapter 21 I underestimated you

On stage, the five people stood still and danced to the accompaniment. Facing the cheers of the audience, they maintained the same dance movements and kept their facial expressions on point, appearing very relaxed and at ease.

All I can say is that he truly deserves to be called a senior artist with many years of experience. He even chose to perform live with his microphone fully open, demonstrating his solid grasp of both his talent and the typhoon situation.

It was definitely the right choice to start the show, and when they finished their performance and were led off the stage by staff, the fans in the audience cheered.

Judging from the fans' cheers, it seems that Kim HyunA's solo cheers were even more organized and enthusiastic than 4Minute's. I don't know if I heard it wrong.

However, the second group's performance was by the idol group SNH48. If you are familiar with this group of idols, the performance on this stage was quite as expected.

The vocals were quite good; you could tell from the first note that the singer had received relevant training or was formally trained. However, the dance skills were not solid, the movements were a bit unsteady, and the coordination was not very good.

It is well known that stage performances with a large number of people become more difficult, which is understandable.

It's not great, but it's not bad either; you can tell from it that the person must have practiced.

But not many... it's just an old, traditional skill.

Next up was UNIQ's performance, and after they finished, it was Monstax's turn to go on stage.

They didn't keep anyone waiting long. Everyone quickly stood up and, led by leader Shownu, walked along the edge of the aisle toward the stage. Perhaps because it was a live broadcast, they could hear the gentle cheers of their seniors as they passed 4Minute.

"Fighting!"

"Kamsamita!"

As the two teams exchanged polite greetings, Kim Hyun-ah, sitting second from the left, suddenly turned her gaze to Lin Qianqiao at the back of the line, giving him a discreet look.

Recalling the conversation in the waiting room, I understood why they were talking about him so enthusiastically.

Her face, adorned with perfect makeup, wore a just-right smile. Her features were sculpted and three-dimensional, and her face shape was smooth and pleasing to the eye. Her slightly upturned eyes were captivating.

At this point, Kim Hyun-ah also quite approved of his looks.

Feeling the gaze directed at him, Lin Qianqiao turned his head to look at Kim Hyun-ah sitting next to Jeon Ji-yoon. Seeing that her gaze was on him, Lin Qianqiao, not understanding what was going on, raised his eyebrows slightly. His impression of her was only that she was his senior from CLC, and he didn't care much about anyone else.

Because during the years when her solo activities were at their peak, Lin Qianqiao was still overseas and didn't know much about Kim HyunA.

But if you mention Gangnam Style, the impression might come, because Lin Qianqiao was bombarded with this song back then.

However, he was quickly drawn to the cheers of Jeon Ji-yoon beside him, and after giving a friendly nod with a smile, he stepped forward to follow his teammates.

This woman seemed quite enthusiastic towards him. They chatted for a while in the waiting room and even took a photo together. She seemed to be saying that she would post the photo on Instagram.

Whether it's true or not, Lin Qianqiao did report it to her agent.

Lee Yong-jin didn't say anything after hearing this, and seemed quite pleased...

Soon, Monstax took to the stage to perform their debut song "Arbitrary Invasion," which was quite similar in style to 4minute, both being hip-hop dance music like EDM Trap. However, Monstax's dance style was a bit more aggressive.

Next, they took turns performing on stage, followed by guest performers. The singer named Bibi sang quite well, and there was also a female singer surnamed Xu who sang very well. They were both probably the type of singers with real talent.

Lin Qianqiao also noticed that Dongda University didn't seem to value stage performances much, mostly just standing still and delivering outputs. However, they surprisingly valued vocal melodies a lot, and could easily handle technical transitions or high notes, which was quite impressive.

Since there aren't many artist groups, each group gets two to three stages, while those with stronger connections get about four. Overall, it's quite balanced, and nobody seems to have any complaints.

Finally, as announced by the host, the white team won with over 60% of the vote.

However, no one cared about the outcome. The group of artists invited to the show lined up on stage and applauded, signaling the show's impending end.

There will be a short interview after the performance. After you introduce yourself, they will probably ask you about the atmosphere on stage and your thoughts on the show.

When faced with questions from clients, the natural response is always "good, good, good," followed by a big smile and a thumbs-up, and that's it...

The interview team, satisfied with getting the answers they wanted, let the person leave.

……

"Kyo?"

"Yes, that's me."

Lin Qianqiao, who had just returned from an interview, saw Kim Hyun-ah standing in the backstage corridor. Hearing the commotion, she looked up and asked with a smile.

Upon closer inspection, this senior is indeed very charming, with deep and captivating eyes that make one's heart race when he stares at them. His lips, adorned with lipstick, also exude a certain sexiness. His teammates have already silently taken a step back, waiting to see how things unfold.

Hearing her question, Lin Qianqiao nodded gently.

After receiving his affirmative response, Kim Hyun-ah didn't speak, but looked at Lin Qianqiao with great interest, and then smiled gently.

Lin Qianqiao, bewildered, paused for a moment, but then, with a "click" sound in the corridor, Kim HyunA suddenly smiled and stretched out her hands:

"Give me your contact information."

As the footsteps drew closer, she seemed to remember something and added, "It seems like all my friends have your contact information. If I don't, it would feel a bit out of place, so please do me this small favor, Kyo-xi."

Her voice carried a hint of childish sweetness, with a slightly drawn-out ending, seemingly carrying a touch of coquetry. This contrasted sharply with her alluring face, making one's heart flutter.

She maintained that alluring smile on her face, her watery eyes gazing at him tenderly, as if waiting for Lin Qianqiao's response.

"..."

Lin Qianqiao didn't respond immediately. Instead, she saw Quan Zhiyun approaching from behind her. He raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had thought of something. Suddenly, he smiled and looked down at his senior. Their eyes met with tenderness, like lovers in the throes of passion. He said softly and playfully, "Okay."

The two naturally exchanged contact information. Lin Qianqiao's teammates behind her all looked like they were watching a good show, with a hint of...envy in their eyes?

However, Jeon Ji-yoon, who was behind Kim Hyun-ah, looked rather unpleasant. When she saw the two exchanging contact information, she turned around and left without paying any attention to Kim Hyun-ah, who was standing alone in front of a group of men.

Perhaps because she had found a way to fit into the group, Kim Hyun-ah's smile seemed to deepen. She glanced at her teammates behind her, and unlike her indifferent attitude in the waiting room, she nodded to them in a friendly manner. Then she winked at Lin Qianqiao, waved casually, and turned to leave.

It seems she... didn't know that a teammate had come looking for her.

Watching her departing figure, Lin Qianqiao smiled with relief, feeling that she had one less problem to deal with.

He was actually starting to get a little curious about girl group culture...

Suddenly, he felt a hard pat on the shoulder. When he turned around, he saw Yoo Ki-hyun giving him a thumbs-up with a look of envy on his face.

"Wow! Do you know who she is? She's Kim HyunA! You're amazing!"

"You really made me proud, damn it!"

"I really underestimated you, Takumi Inui."

As soon as Kim HyunA left, the MONSTAX members couldn't wait to bump fists with her in celebration, pulling her along with a bewildered expression and striking a pose of pride.
