“Zi Chen, Zi Chen, it’s my turn, help me with my makeup!”

Seeing that Lin Zichen had just finished doing Shen Qinghan’s makeup, Li Chuxin, who had been watching the other contestants sing, immediately turned around and ran over with a smile on her face.

Lin Zichen said, “Come on, sit down.”

“Okay!”

Li Chuxin walked over to the mirror with a giggle and sat down.

Once she sat down, Lin Zichen quickly began applying her makeup with skilled movements, while Shen Qinghan stood by to assist.

It took less than ten minutes.

The makeup was done.

He had used less than fifty percent of his effort, not as wholeheartedly as when he had applied makeup to Shen Qinghan.

For Lin Zichen, he reserved the best of everything only for his parents and Shen Qinghan.

As for others, he had to reduce the quality.

Yet even so, the makeup he did for Li Chuxin still made her so happy that her face was full of smiles.

“So beautiful, so pretty!”

“Zi Chen, your makeup skills are amazing, even better than my mom!”

“No, it feels like you’re even better than many professional makeup artists!”

Li Chuxin stood in front of the mirror, admiring herself, feeling incredibly beautiful, and kept exclaiming in amazement, full of praise for Lin Zichen, who had done her makeup.

Lin Zichen, with high emotional intelligence, replied, “It’s mainly because you’re naturally pretty.”

Upon hearing this, Li Chuxin felt overjoyed and then, with a rare display of high EQ, she said with a laugh,

“That’s true, I’ve been the class belle since I was young, but, compared to your Qinghan, I’m still lacking a little bit.”

After saying that, she turned her gaze to Shen Qinghan, eyeing her delicate and pretty face, and couldn’t help but start complimenting,

“I just can’t understand how there can be such a gorgeous fairy in this world!”

“And the childhood sweetheart looks super handsome too!”

“You two are a match made in heaven, I, Li Chuxin, am totally shipping you!”

Li Chuxin’s stance had changed; she used to be crazy about Lin Zi alone, but now she was smitten with Shen Qinghan too, and she was really into this pair of high school sweethearts.

“No, no, you’re too much…”

Li Chuxin’s words were too blunt, and Shen Qinghan, feeling very embarrassed, quickly blushed and asked Li Chuxin to stop.

However, she was just shy, and inside, she was actually very happy.

She did not resist Li Chuxin’s words.

On the contrary, she liked it when others linked her and Lin Zichen together.

While they were laughing and joking, the host’s loud voice came from the stage.

“Thank you, contestant number 18, Huang Li, for an amazing performance!”

“Next, let’s invite contestant number 19, Gao Guang, to the stage to sing a foreign song—’Yesterday’s Song’!”

“And also, contestants number 20, Li Chuxin and Shen Qinghan, please get ready offstage!”

“Clap! Clap! Clap…”

The audience below the stage was applauding for the contestant making her exit, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Hearing the host’s recent announcement, Li Chuxin looked at Shen Qinghan excitedly and said,

“Han Han, it’s coming, it’s finally our turn to perform. We must dazzle everyone later and snatch the championship in one go!”

“Ah yes, win the championship.”

Shen Qinghan’s voice trembled slightly in response.

At this moment, she was very nervous, unable to stop her hands and feet from shaking.

The slender, shapely legs hidden under the skirt were already so weak that she could barely stand, ready to collapse onto the ground at any moment.

Lin Zichen noticed her tension and immediately reached out to hold her hand, signaling her to relax.

However, it did not have the desired effect.

The next moment, Shen Qinghan’s face suddenly changed color, feeling a warmth between her legs, she uncontrollably wetted herself.

In an instant, the skirt she wore was soaked in a large area.

“Xiao, Xiao Chen…”

Shen Qinghan looked at Lin Zichen beside her with a bewildered face, her eyes already red and tears swirling, on the verge of crying.

Lin Zichen reacted very promptly and immediately pulled her hand to walk outside.

At the same time, he picked up an opened bottle of mineral water from the table and held it upside down, allowing the water to flow out and cover the traces Shen Qinghan had left behind.

“Zi Chen, where are you taking Han Han, it’s almost our turn to go on stage!”

Li Chuxin was utterly confused when she saw Lin Zichen suddenly taking Shen Qinghan by the hand and heading out, spilling a bottle of mineral water all over the place.

The others backstage were also a bit stunned by the scene in front of them.

“We’ll be right back!”

Leaving behind just that phrase, Lin Zichen took Shen Qinghan and left the backstage, completely disappearing from Li Chuxin’s sight.

Coming out of the backstage, the two found an empty corner and stopped.

Seeing that no one was around, Shen Qinghan couldn’t hold back any longer and burst into tears, crying incessantly as if tears cost her nothing.

“What should we do, Xiao Chen, what should we do, it’s almost time for Chu Xin and me to go on stage.”

“Chu Xin and I have practiced so long, if it ends up being ruined because I wet my pants, Chu Xin will definitely hate me.”

“Why am I so useless…”

By the end of her sentence, Shen Qinghan was sobbing so violently that she could hardly speak fluently.

Ever since she started high school, she had become timid, introverted, and felt inferior. Aside from Lin Zichen, she hardly dared to interact with others.

To change herself and become more confident, she mustered up the courage to sign up for the campus top ten singers competition following Lin Zichen’s suggestion.

After practicing so earnestly for so long, she never expected to wet her pants from nervousness just before going on stage.

Why am I so useless?

I am really so useless!

The more Shen Qinghan thought about it, the more painful it became, feeling a heavy and uncomfortable pressure in her chest.

She had already been struggling internally, and this incident of wetting her pants seemed like the last straw that broke the camel’s back, causing her complete breakdown.

Lin Zichen took out tissue to wipe her tears and comforted her softly, “There, there, don’t cry anymore, or your makeup will run.”

“It’s just wet pants; it’s not a big problem, don’t panic.”

“Don’t rush, don’t be nervous, I’ll think of a way to solve this right away.”

As he said these words, Lin Zichen’s brain was spinning rapidly, trying to figure out how to resolve the current predicament.

That’s when from the corner of his eye he spotted the curtain on the window up ahead.

It was a brightly colored curtain, embroidered with various patterns.

A solution came to mind!

Lin Zichen, struck with inspiration, told Shen Qinghan to wait here for a moment and then ran back to the backstage at top speed to find a pair of scissors.

Then, he ran up to the tightly closed window and smashed the glass with a punch, pulling down that curtain fabric inside.

With the pair of scissors in his hand and the curtain fabric, he intended to tailor a skirt for Shen Qinghan on the spot in half a minute.
