Chapter 16: To Be a Powerhouse

Hu Mofei laughed when he heard that.

With sinister glee in his eyes, he said to Song Qi, "You\'re simply amazing at selecting contestants, Song. You really have invited all sorts of trouble to the show."

Qu Man bitterly smiled. "We at the Talent Relations department really have our work cut out for us. Thank goodness Song didn\'t decide to stream from the very beginning of the competition. Otherwise, we would have more than just this to worry about."

When Song Qi saw that his two trusted subordinates were blatantly complaining about him to his face, he angrily huffed with a scowl.

He threw his hands in the air. "I didn\'t know that the Tong family\'s daughter would actually come! While in the show, they would all want to maintain their dignity. Nothing big should happen."

Hu Mofei and Qu Man glanced at each other and shook their heads, sighing. "Hopefully."

Meanwhile, the Tong sisters Qu Man mentioned bumped into each other when they walked into the hall.

When the contestants first entered the hall, Tong Luo had sat all the way in the corner by herself while Tong Fei, her older sister in name, had walked in with a group of followers surrounding her. Tong Fei had also sat at the very front.

Naturally, that meant the two of them never met each other.

However, a few minutes ago when Tong Luo entered the arena with Qi Wu and Jiang Xuxu, she bumped into Tong Fei who was walking with a group of admiring followers.

Jiang Xuxu had stolen Qi Wu\'s attention from the moment she appeared, and Tong Luo would naturally not fight with Jiang Xuxu for attention. Hence, she would walk at a distance near them yet not too far away from them.

Hence, she did not notice Tong Fei who had been walking over from behind.

That was until Tong Fei slammed into her shoulder, causing her to stumble from the impact. Tong Fei ignored her, however, and haughtily continued walking forward.

Tong Luo only realized what happened when Tong Fei\'s followers glanced at her with mocking eyes.

"If you can\'t walk properly, get out of the corridor."

Tong Fei\'s eyes were filled with contempt and derision as she looked at Tong Luo.

In response, Tong Luo lowered her eyes to hide the darkness in them.

She could not respond to Tong Fei. That was because the more she responded, the worse Tong Fei would get.

She had nothing now. She could not destroy her path forward just because of Tong Fei.

Just as Tong Luo was forcing herself to be the bigger person, a calm voice chimed in, "Xuxu, is there something wrong with her legs?"

Tong Luo was stunned. She knew who the speaker was. That was Qi Wu.

Out of reflex, she shot her head up to look at Qi Wu and found her looking as calm and composed as ever. Qi Wu looked like the whole world was actually not part of her world. In fact, she might even be above everything.

She would always be living high up near the sky, in a place that was colder and even lonelier than the moon.

Jiang Xuxu, who had been focused on watching the show, was stunned upon being cued to speak.

"Who?" She had not realized who Qi Wu was talking about.

"That woman who bumped into Tong Luo," Qi Wu replied.

Then, she continued, "If there\'s nothing wrong with her legs, then why did she crash into other people? Is there something wrong with her eyes?"

Every contestant had their name clearly labeled on their outfit, but Qi Wu seemed to be blind to the labels and just referred to Tong Fei as "that woman."

Silence fell.

Tong Xuxu glanced at Tong Fei in awkward surprise. She did not know what to say to Qi Wu.

While she reveled in gossip, that did not mean she wanted to be part of it!

Although Tong Fei\'s actions were rather cruel and mean, that was family business, rich people\'s business. It was not up to random nobodies like them to step in…

Jiang Xuxu could clearly sense more and more eyes turning to stare at them, but Qi Wu continued to remain calm and composed. It was very admirable.

Tong Fei stopped. Surrounded by her followers, she turned to look at Qi Wu.

When she saw just how refreshingly beautiful Qi Wu was, she paused in shock. However, she soon frowned and shifted her gaze down.

"Qi Wu, correct?"

She coldly huffed. "This is a private matter between Tong Luo and me. Do not meddle in this."

"If you\'re not feeling well, you need to visit the doctor soon."

Qi Wu\'s tone remained as even as usual, making her words sound just like a kind suggestion. However, Tong Fei\'s face immediately darkened when she heard that. She thought Qi Wu was taunting her.

"Pfft!"

Jiang Xuxu could not resist letting a laugh burst out of her when she heard that.

Just then, a crew member walked over and told them to stop dallying around the entrance as filming was about to start.

Suppressing the fury blazing in her, Tong Fei glared at Qi Wu before proudly strutting into the hall.

Naturally, her followers did not dare stay behind, so they all followed her into the hall.

When the stares directed at the group finally went away, Jiang Xuxu heaved a sigh of relief.

She then turned to Qi Wu and worriedly said, "You shouldn\'t pick a fight with Tong Fei, sweetie."

Before Qi Wu could respond, Tong Luo spoke up from behind them. "She\'s right. You shouldn\'t…"

"She\'s taking advantage of your self-control."

Qi Wu interrupted with her cold and logical statement before Tong Luo could finish speaking.

Stunned, Tong Luo blankly looked at Qi Wu.

The young woman stood there at the doorway with the light shining from behind her. Her face was always blank and logical as if nothing was worthy of disrupting her inner peace.

Qi Wu calmly looked back at her. "How long can that control last? Perhaps she might force you to quit the show next time."

"No way!"

Tong Luo did not even have to think before denying the possibility of quitting the show.

She had racked her brain and done everything she could just to stand a chance to return to the stage. No matter what, she could not let Tong Fei ruin her chance.

However, she honestly did not feel that confident about that.

She understood all too well just how arrogant and bold Tong Fei could be now that she had the Tong family backing her up.

Jiang Xuxu understood what Qi Wu meant by now.

She glanced at Tong Luo and softly said, "Tong Fei looks like someone who will take a mile if given an inch."

While Qi Wu seemed harmless, whatever she said would always be an accurate assessment of the situation.

"Defeat her using your stage."

"I will… Still, you shouldn\'t involve yourselves. Tong Fei loves to hold grudges."

Tong Luo\'s conflicting feelings finally calmed down.

She had never expected someone she had never once shown any kindness to before would repeatedly help her out.

What an absolute joke. The parents who raised her for years abandoned her just like that while a stranger she barely knew and viewed as a competitor would help her.

"Yes, sweetie. Tong Fei does not look like a kind person."

That was exactly what Jiang Xuxu was worried about.

Her silly little angel\'s family was so poor that she had to be a celebrity to help pay the bills. If Qi Wu ended up making an enemy out of someone as powerful as Tong Fei… Could Qi Wu continue down this path still?

Jiang Xuxu frowned. Oh, how she worried.

"Huh?"

Qi Wu stared at Jiang Xuxu with obvious confusion. Then, she let out a chuckle. "There\'s no need to fear her."

Jiang Xuxu and Tong Lou were rendered speechless.

Was this what it was like to be a powerhouse?

In Qi Wu\'s point of view, anything that did not involve risking one\'s life was considered a trivial matter that could be resolved.

After all, she had stood witness to kings and lords, who were powerful tyrants that did not even care about human lives, going down on their knees begging and pleading for her to issue a decree just so their enemies could die.

They did all they could to threaten and kill each other. Meanwhile, Tong Fei merely issued a threat that would not even result in anything harmful. In Qi Wu\'s eyes, Tong Fei was being ridiculously friendly compared to those men.
