Although Qiu Chengye's acting had improved, it was still full of holes.
During the singing segment, Qiu Chengye, who normally had no interest in singing, had been unusually attentive. Not only had he volunteered comments, but everything he said hinted that Yu Jinche should get someone else to sing.
Why would he do that?
Because he wanted to set someone there up.
So, looking at the [Singing] tag above Qiu Chengye's head, Xie Mi had a bold idea.
Who said none of the tags here could be duplicates?
What if her tag and Qiu Chengye's were both [Singing]?
To test that theory, she put herself in play and invited Qiu Chengye to sing.
Despite being extremely resistant to the idea, once Qiu Chengye learned that she would not sing unless he did, he gritted his teeth and agreed to sing with her.
That further confirmed Xie Mi's theory.
Her tag was [Singing].
But Qiu Chengye had not realized it.
He would think he had outwitted her. When he saw the [Singing] tag above her head, he decided that the host had arranged this segment specifically to target her.
Just as the opening dance segment had targeted Xu Shuangrong.
Knowing that he was not this segment's target, he assumed he was completely safe. That was why he had accepted Xie Mi's invitation without any precautions and even volunteered to sing first.
Unfortunately, this time he had stumbled right into a trap.
After finishing her recitation, Xie Mi looked at Qiu Chengye's face, livid with anger, and bowed politely.
"That concludes my performance. Thank you, everyone."
[Did Old Xie figure it out?!]
[Wait, if Old Xie figured it out, this deserves a closer look. She put herself in play to lure Qiu Chengye into a trap and still got away unscathed. Amazing!]
