The top-tier group's stage play was quite moving, and it was also Ji Fei's first time properly playing a character.
Her acting was still raw and inexperienced, but it wasn't embarrassing.
With Qin Zhao and Yu Rouyin's help in getting into character, the stage performance was guaranteed to be good.
However, netizens felt somewhat disappointed while watching the stage performance.
"It feels like we're addicted to drama, and it's unsatisfying when the top-tier group doesn't create any."
"A stage without slaps feels like it's missing its soul."
"I thought after the previous group's dramatic performance, they would have some reaction."
"Remember in the first episode when the acclaimed actors' group also caused drama, but the top-tier group countered it with their performance. Since there's no rebuttal this time, maybe it proves that Sun Man's performance was true, which could be seen as a kind of acknowledgment."
"That's hard to say..."
"So this episode's Entertainment Judge isn't going to clean up the entertainment industry?"
"Come on, the entertainment industry has already been cut to its major artery, what more drama can you fans expect from Ji Fei!"
"I feel the same way. Everything that could be exposed has reached its limit. There's nothing left to judge, and Ji Fei can't keep making enemies either."
"So now she's seriously acting, which makes sense. After all, Sister Fei wants to be an actress, and acting skill is what matters most."
"Over these episodes, you can really see that Sister Fei's acting is genuinely improving."
"If it's just based on acting performance, it's hard to say who will win this episode."
"Well, no drama is fine. This stage play was good, full of patriotic spirit."
"The top-tier group shows social responsibility, knowing they're at their peak popularity, so they perform such scripts to guide young people."
"Yes, the top-tier group's plays always have educational value."
"Not to mention... right now, I'm feeling the urge to join the army."
"Am I the only one who was completely charmed by that little Seven who just came on stage? It must be a real military dog."
"It seems to have an injury on its hind leg, probably retired. Hard to say if it was a military dog though."
Backstage.
Other members of the Qin family were asking Qin Xian, "Is this the one Little Luo helped borrow?"
Qin Xian nodded: "Yes, a retired drug detection dog."
"That's a hero!" Qin's Father exclaimed excitedly.
Qin Xian nodded: "It has accomplished many achievements, very capable."
"It worked so well with Third Brother and Ji Fei," Qin's Mom said in surprise.
Qin Xian pointed to someone in the filming area nearby: "Its trainer is over there, directing at all times."
While the family was discussing, they suddenly heard a greeting from nearby.
"You're all here too." Although Peng Li had an unpleasant encounter with them last time, a few days had passed, and bygones were bygones. Seeing the family there, she couldn't help but approach them, as she had heard it was Qin Zhao who reported to the police.
For the protective Peng Li, this was hitting a raw nerve.
The Qin family wasn't too surprised to see Peng Li and Lang Zhe coming over together.
"Getting someone arrested by the police, and yet you're so at ease. I must say I'm impressed with your family. It's clear you don't take our Peng family seriously at all."
Qin's Mom raised her eyebrows, but when she caught sight of the bright pearl necklace on Peng Li's neck, she immediately stepped back a bit, as Peng Li was standing closest to her.
Looking at Lang Zhe behind, with his gloomy expression and face mask, Qin's Mom's expression became even more peculiar.
"What? Finally feeling guilty? He's my godson, practically your junior. Look what your son has done!" Peng Li's eyes were red with anger as she spoke.
"I think you're the one who doesn't know what your godson has done," Qin's Mom couldn't help but mutter, "Why are you here? Looking for trouble?"
Peng Li snorted coldly, "We're here to settle scores!" She was about to continue.
Qin Xian immediately warned in a low voice: "Please don't disturb the performance."
Peng Li was somewhat intimidated by Qin Xian.
The audience in the back rows was already unhappy with these two people standing in the aisle.
As attention focused on them, Lang Zhe became anxious, pulled down his baseball cap, and led Peng Li to find empty seats. Being in the VIP seating area, there were some available spots.
However, the moment Lang Zhe sat down, his body tensed for a moment, and his expression darkened further.
Peng Li and Lang Zhe had pulled strings to get in, and naturally weren't foolish enough to interrupt the stage performance now. Following their lawyer's advice, if they wanted to clarify things, they could rush onto the stage during the interview segment of the livestream to reveal the truth.
The lawyer suggested they should communicate with the involved parties before going on stage, so they had actually tried to find Lu Fei first.
However, Lu Fei not only didn't answer their calls but was also backstage with Sun Man.
Peng Li didn't want to meet Sun Man at all; she wanted to catch Sun Man off guard and destroy her, so she didn't force her way backstage but came to the audience seats to wait for the final interview segment. When she saw the Qin family, she couldn't resist confronting them.
However, after actually sitting down, Peng Li stopped bothering the Qin family.
The Qin family had been on guard, worried about retaliation for Qin Zhao and Ji Fei's police report, but seeing them so quiet, they understood the situation.
Qin Yan immediately messaged Qin Rong, who was still backstage, to explain the situation.
Pei Mingxuan, who was discussing contract details with Sun Man backstage, immediately received the news from Qin Rong and frowned: "What are they trying to do?"
Aliali: 6747c480c4f3f33ac46fd021"They're here for us," Lu Fei snorted: "With Peng Li's mentality, she's probably planning to do something crazy when we go on stage."
Back when she was pursuing Lu Fei's husband, Peng Li had been quite wild, not at all like a noble family's daughter, just doing whatever she pleased.
"She definitely wants to go after Sun Man, and my foolish son certainly wants to clear his name, so there will definitely be some sudden developments later," Lu Fei said with a dark expression: "It's going to be a fierce battle."
Sun Man's face turned pale, truly regretting countless times how she ever got involved with such people.
Pei Mingxuan patted Sun Man's shoulder: "Don't worry, you'll be going on stage with Ji Fei and Qin Zhao. I've never seen anyone get the upper hand on a livestream stage when Ji Fei and Qin Zhao are present. Just let them know about the situation."
Actually, Pei Mingxuan wasn't completely confident. Who knew what desperate people might do, especially with a noble lady among them.
However, she had an inexplicable confidence in Ji Fei. Although Ji Fei usually seemed lazy and casual, she always gave people a strange sense of security at crucial moments.
The worst-case scenario would be if neither side could suppress the other. Then they would have to rely on Ji Fei's Entertainment Judge persona to guide public opinion, but since they had truth on their side, there was no need to feel insecure.
Nobody could come up with any concrete solutions, so they decided to deal with things as they came.
Thus, everyone moved to the side of the stage, waiting for the play to end.
