“However, if the contestant fails, we will have to continue our search until the judges are satisfied,” the host continued. The host secretly changed the rules to take advantage of Su Zhen’s presence.

After saying that, the host deliberately shouted toward the audience below, “All right, audience, how do you think Su Zhen will perform?” The crowd below became more excited.

As long as the judges disapproved of Su Zhen’s performance, the audience could drag Su Zhen’s name through the mud. After all, this was equivalent to a free concert. It was a massive opportunity for the crowd below.

Even nay-sayers had already taken out their phones to record Su Zhen’s embarrassing performance.

Even though Su Zhen was furious at this moment, he could only maintain an awkward smile. But Su Zhen had already cursed this unlucky shopping mall and the host tens of thousands of times in his heart.

“We also have some props backstage, so you can go and get ready. You begin your performance later.” The host then reached out to lead Su Zhen backstage. The host had a sinister smile on his face as he did this.

su Zhen had no choice but to carry Su Su along and hide for now. However, the stage was densely packed with people due to the previous situation. There were even signs of more people showing up to the event.

$u Zhen put Su Su down with a bitter expression and took out his phone to type a distress message to send it to Su Jun. Then he fell into a daze.

“How are you feeling, Fourth Brother?” Su Su asked as she looked at Su Zhen’s pale face.

“Tm not feeling so good. I can’t sing because I need to vomit,” Su Zhen said as he waved his hand. Then he sat down on a chair and continued, “We should just wait here for Big Brother to come and get us.”

However, Su Zhen had only rested for less than five minutes when the crowd became restless, urging Su Zhen to perform.

Even Su Su became annoyed at this point. ‘These people are so impatient. They’re so desperate for a free concert. Do they know how much a single ticket to my brother’s performance would cost?”

Under the pressure of the agitated crowd, the host was forced to go backstage and advise Su Zhen, “Mr. Su Zhen, could you just perform one of your songs? Otherwise, the crowd won’t let you get off the stage.”

“You dare to tell me that?” Su Zhen’s eyes widened, and he suddenly got a terrible headache. Su Zhen could only grit his teeth and say, “If you didn’t ask me to perform, nothing would’ve happened.”

The host was embarrassed. He scratched his head and apologized, “I’m sorry, this isn’t for the show’s effect. Please perform just one song. Otherwise, your fans will slander you.”

If Su Zhen kept hiding and refused to go on stage and perform, the fans might become too excited and rush in to pester Su Zhen, or worse, all sorts of negative news about Su Zhen possibly lip-syncing would be spread across the world.

In this country, a failed artist could never appear in public again, which meant that Su Zhen’s career as a singer might come to a bitter end.

“All right, all right. Please stop rushing me.” Su Zhen chased the host away with annoyance. When the host left, Su Zhen began to retch again. He looked like he was in immense pain.

“Tm never going on the Swing Hammer again, Su Su…” Su Zhen said as he gagged. Although Su Zhen pretended to be relaxed, Su Su could still hear the helplessness and worry in her fourth brother’s voice.

Su Su knew that she had caused Su Zhen a lot of trouble after forcing him to take her to the amusement park. Anyone in this position would be extremely depressed.

“Ugh, please come and get us, Big Brother.” Su Zhen could only groan in pain.

Meanwhile, the noise outside grew louder and louder. It seemed that the audience was beginning to slander Su Zhen.

“What a horrible person. Why is he ignoring his fans?”

“He must’ve been lip-syncing his entire career. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be afraid to perform live.”

“So, this is what Su Zhen is like. We should boycott all immoral artists!”

$u Su scanned around backstage, looking for a way to help Su Zhen out of his predicament. Then she saw a violin on a table by the sidelines, and her eyes lit up.

$u Zhen could not help but feel nervous when he saw Su Su walk to the violin. He said weakly, “I don’t know how to play the violin, Su Su. Please don’t touch that.”

Su Su shook her head and said, “I know how to play the violin. I can help you, Fourth Brother.”

Under Su Zhen’s shocked eyes, Su Su took a deep breath and put the violin firmly on her shoulder. Then she adjusted her posture and raised the violin bow..
