After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

Just as Lin Nan was about to say a few more hurtful things to me, Jiang Yichen suddenly spoke up.

He looked at all the anchors present and announced in a deep voice.

"I'm going on a business trip. I hope all the anchors will do their jobs well and not cause trouble."

Upon hearing his words, all the anchors obediently responded.

Just then, Jiang Yichen glanced at me, seemingly unintentionally, and added a sentence.

"No one is allowed to participate in the Tongcheng Anchor Competition in the name of the company."

Upon hearing this, I froze.

Jiang Yichen is intentionally targeting me.

It's a pity I've already registered, but no matter the reason, I won't give up.

He then left with Lin Nan.

Jiang Yichen's business trip is a good thing for me, as it allows me to participate in the livestreaming competition with a clear conscience.

Time flies, and on the day of the competition, many other live streamers from other companies came.

When they saw that I was also participating, they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"Is Gu Mo only showing her face in public because she owes high-interest loans?"

"I heard that the Jiang family doesn't allow other streamers to participate in the competition, so why did she suddenly come?"

"Maybe it's for money. She's really willing to go to any lengths. I admire Gu Mo's mentality; it's truly impressive."

Ignoring the noise around me, I sat next to Little Sweetie and waited for the competition to officially begin.

My palms were sweating profusely, and I was incredibly nervous.

Little Sweetie noticed something was wrong with me, so she gently placed her hand on the back of my hand and earnestly instructed me, "After you go up there, don't care what others say. Jump boldly. Only by letting go can you jump beautifully."

Hearing this, I felt a little embarrassed and awkwardly asked, "Does it have to be such a large movement?"

Sweetie's expression grew increasingly serious. Instead of answering my question, she questioned me.

Do you want the bonus or not?

I took a deep breath, nodded emphatically, and decided to go all out.

It's just a matter of showing my face in public. Anyway, my reputation is already so bad, so one more or one less time doesn't matter.

"I know what to do, and I will do my best to perform."

After receiving my answer, Little Sweetie showed a satisfied look. "Don't worry too much. If you do what I taught you and do it well, you will definitely win an award."

With her encouragement, my tension eased a bit.

The competition officially started. I was ranked low in the draw, so I watched the other contestants' performances from the audience with Little Sweetie.

The competition only specified talent performances, but did not require each streamer to participate in the competition by dancing.

As a result, the things performed by the previous hosts were all sorts of different things.

Playing the guzheng and singing, including the pipa, there's something for everyone.

Their performance was extremely complete, with some instruments combined with dance, which was very impressive.

Seeing the other contestants achieve good results, the pressure on me grew.

The only thing I can be proud of is that I have a decent figure and good looks.

However, such advantages are not considered unique among this group of streamers.

I was still somewhat dazed when the host called my name on stage.

When Little Sweetie saw that I didn't react, she pushed me.

I immediately realized what was going on and, thinking about the money my family owed, I gritted my teeth and went up on stage.

As the music started, I kept replaying the moves that Britney Spears had taught me in my mind.

Every movement was expansive and powerful, showcasing the performance to its fullest extent.

Soon I became immersed in the dance and gradually lost track of the dirty sounds from the outside world.

When the music ended, my performance also stopped.

To my surprise, my dance received a good response, and many people in the audience cheered for me by calling my name.

This is a huge encouragement to me.

I nervously took the microphone from the host, looked carefully at the audience below the stage, and bowed deeply.

"Compared to other contestants, I am not the best, but I am very grateful for everyone's support."

After quietly thanking the host, I handed the microphone back to him and quickly left the stage.

However, just as I was stepping off the stage, I saw a familiar figure not far away.

Like Jiang Yichen.

My heart skipped a beat.

Why is he here?

But the thought that he had been away on business trips for a while quickly dispelled the fear.

Once I was back next to Britney Spears, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and cautiously asked, "How was my performance? Did I make any mistakes?"

Sweetie made no attempt to hide her admiration for me, praising me earnestly.

"Not bad, it seems you've really been practicing hard these past few days. You're much better than when I first taught you. You're ready to graduate."

This is extremely high praise for me.

The other contestants around me looked at me with dissatisfaction when they heard Sweetie praising me so much.

Voting only begins after all contestants have finished their competitions.

Each audience member can cast a maximum of one vote per round, and the person with the most votes will be the winner of the competition.

On the large screen on stage, the avatars and scores of all our contestants were displayed in real time.

I stared nervously at my ranking, barely daring to breathe.

The voting officially ended, and I was shocked to see my profile picture in first place.

But mostly I felt happy.

But soon, I saw the votes of the contestant who was originally ranked below me rise rapidly, and in the end, they were exactly the same as me.

She was the first to perform, and we tied for first place.

As announced by the host, the prize money was awarded in two installments.

We went up on stage together to receive the award, but at that moment, a discordant voice suddenly appeared.

"Wait, I haven't voted yet."

When I saw Jiang Yichen suddenly appear, I broke out in a cold sweat.

It was only then that I realized the figure I had just seen was not a hallucination.

I couldn't help but feel nervous and didn't dare to look Jiang Yichen in the eye, after all, I had secretly come to the competition without his knowledge.

Just then, Liang Xiaorou, as the organizer, walked onto the stage with an air of watching a good show.

Seeing my appearance, she couldn't help but let out a sneer, her eyes filled with contempt for me.

Liang Xiaorou snatched the microphone from the host, looked me up and down, and then suddenly spoke.

"Since President Jiang hasn't voted yet, then the two of us will campaign for votes and ultimately select the winner."

As soon as Liang Xiaorou said these words, the audience below the stage immediately started to jeer.

"Great! Let's quickly campaign for more votes and cast another round!"

"I wonder who President Jiang will choose. I'll bet on Gu Mo."

"It seems the choice is in President Jiang's hands; this competition is getting more and more exciting."

I knew they were making a fuss because of my relationship with Jiang Yichen. I had no choice but to accept it for the sake of the bonus.

After learning of Liang Xiaorou's decision, Jiang Yichen raised an eyebrow and looked at me and another contestant, as if with a hint of expectation.
