Chapter 40: Charlotte, Come and Save Me Quickly!

The theme song’s victory was now completely confirmed.

The expressions of the players on the stage were all different, feeling very surprised.

Could the final winner really be Kirimi Miyuki?

Although her performance was indeed explosive, compared to the other Grade A contestants, she had no strong management company backing her and was a foreigner with not many fans locally.

In theory, she should be ranked third at most, there’s no way she could surpass Xie Qingxuan.

On the other hand, the other competitors are not simple either.

Not to mention Tang Liuli, who used to be a top entertainment figure, just focusing on Chen Yining and Ji Shuzhu.

The companies behind these two are at the top domestically, and they can even create buzz together despite the competition, although they may split the votes due to different positioning, they shouldn’t lose to a relatively unknown "sakura girl".

If they didn’t know that "Dazzling Stage" was a national project, they might even suspect some insider dealings.

But the most unbelievable thing is that the unexpected winner was Kirimi Miyuki.

Like the rest of the contestants, Kirimi Miyuki has no idea about the explosive news and can’t understand why she has so many fans.

However, the real-time bullet comments popping up nearby soon provided the answer:

"Wow, we did it, we really pushed ‘candy’ to the top!"

"Yay! It’s a big win for the two fan support groups! Honey Qing and Little Sakura both got tickets!"

"Little Sakura can keep dancing her sweet style, and Honey Qing, who isn’t very skilled, can learn the simplest dance. It’s a win-win situation!"

"Can new fans ask why she’s called Little Sakura?"

"Because in the island country, Miyuki means March, which is when cherry blossoms bloom. So, she’s called that. Sounds nice, right?"

"Oh, I see. I became a fan through Honey Qing and came here to chat. Thanks for answering, I’ll continue enjoying this."

The bullet comments were filled with celebrations from the fan couples.

Kirimi Miyuki looked at the big screen, feeling startled. Her joy was suddenly overwhelmed by strong guilt, making her blush and purse her lips.

No wonder she got the most fitting theme song and even got the top specific ticket.

Thinking Chu Yuanqing could only learn the simplest "candy" in a short time, they both reached an agreement, resulting in Kirimi Miyuki getting the most benefit!

But the problem is, maybe the fan doesn’t understand.

Kirimi Miyuki, however, understood that Candy was not the best choice for Chu Yuanqing’s learning abilities. Instead, the most suitable song for her would be "Burn," which is in line with her initial level, has moderate difficulty, and leans towards rock.

In other words, she was essentially draining Chu Yuanqing’s energy and using it to boost herself.

If Chu Yuanqing had ranked first, it would have been fine. However, she ended up in second place, with only a 6% difference from her own score. Within this 6%, there were likely some mutual CP fans whose influence was unclear and far from fair.

Kirimi Miyuki ended up as the ultimate winner.

Despite this, she did not feel happy. In fact, she felt a deep sense of guilt when she remembered her previous action of hugging Chu Yuanqing first, which gradually mixed with a sense of panic.

Although she did not have ill intentions at that time, looking at the results, it was clear that her action was inadvertently encouraging Chu Yuanqing’s fans to continue voting for "Candy"!

Little Sakura felt a bit crestfallen as she glanced at the dejected and numb-looking Chu Yuanqing on the other side. She couldn’t bear to watch any longer and decided she needed to apologize to her.

At that moment,

Chu Yuanqing is really sad.

Oh no, even though she deliberately hid in the corner and ignored all the bullet comments, how could Dream Weaver Rabbit still sneak up on her and show off in front of the audience?

Is this show sponsored by the national anti-fraud center, causing some kind of luck to try to undermine her grand insurance fraud scheme?

Unfortunately, people’s emotions do not always align.

While Chu Yuanqing was feeling sad, all the bullet comments in front of her were full of blessings.

"Aww, Honey Qing still hasn’t reacted, she must still think of herself as invisible, so she must be so surprised, right? The more I think about it, the more my heart aches!"

"Yes, maybe Qing Qing is embracing the idea of having no regrets, wanting to try it out in ‘Dazzling Stage,’ she never thought her efforts and bravery would be seen by so many people."

Chu Yuanqing looked around at the surrounding bullet comments, her little face stiff, a shattered golden light flashing in her eyes, almost causing her to lose her composure.

In a daze, she envisioned the revolution of Chen Bridge, the surrounding bullet comments in front of her like soldiers in yellow robes, trying hard to cover her up.

Chu Yuanqing didn’t need to wave her arms, she just had to breathe quietly, and her followers would proclaim her as the ruler, marching into the capital city amidst the support of the army, and sitting on the throne.

She felt numb.

Although the bullet comments were very sincere, so sincere that even if they made her feel uncomfortable, they still moved her somehow, but… she really didn’t want to be an idol!

Chu Yuanqing wanted to speak and explain, but sadly realized that she couldn’t say anything.

Know what they mean by a difficult situation? This is it.

Chu Yuanqing regretted it so much, she wished she hadn’t shown off on the stage.

Faced with so many heartfelt bullet comments, she couldn’t find the words to say anything; she couldn’t bring herself to deny or disappoint others.

It had always been like this before.

Chu Yuanqing was clearly afraid of pain, of hardship, of getting tired and of trouble, but when people expected, pleaded, and needed her, her body moved involuntarily.

Whether facing a disaster beast with supreme meme power, or stepping into the Pure White Forbidden Zone that turns everything into salt blocks, she eventually paved the way to victory with a mountain of her own stacked corpses.

Aren’t you tired?

This was a question once asked by The Last Diva.

Chu Yuanqing had never directly answered before, because she was the hope of humanity, the final savior, the protective wall of human reason.

Therefore, the answers that should not belong to a savior could not be spoken from her mouth, and in order not to lie, silence naturally became the only choice.

But now…

Chu Yuanqing just wanted to say to her!

Woo woo woo, Charlotte, I’m so tired, come and save me!

The bullet comments were completely unaware of this sadness, still celebrating this victory that surpassed all others, swirling around the desolate Chu Yuanqing like fish, suddenly turning into bright golden words, looking cheerful and lively like dancing robes.

The rest of the players looked at Chu Yuanqing with jealousy or admiration, making her the center of attention second only to Kirimi Miyuki, who is now burned into the spotlight.
