Chapter 156 - 156: Finally Overturned (1)



However, the production office had access control cards, so it wasn’t something anyone could enter casually.

Apart from the show’s staff and some leaders from the television station, no one else could obtain an access control card.

So, who gave this person the access card?

Her fingertips lightly tapped on the table, finding the information of the player from country R. She hacked into his phone and obtained evidence of someone sending him the challenge tasks.

She directly packaged all the evidence and sent it to the person in charge of “Super Brain.”

The next day was the recording of the “Super Brain” Grand Finale.

When Lu Miao woke up and went downstairs, Gu Shiyan, the workaholic, had already left.

Gu Ziheng told her, “I’ve already asked the manager to cancel the performance contract with ‘Super Brain.”‘

Lu Miao sat down at the dining table, picked up a shaomai, took a bite, furrowed her brows, and set it aside. “Why didn’t you go? Breaking the contract like this will incur a penalty.”

“It’s just one million, and I was going to support you anyway. If you’re not going, why should I?” Gu Ziheng replied directly.

Lu Miao put down what she was holding and looked at him seriously. “Is one million a small amount? Thrift and frugality are traditional virtues in our country. No squandering allowed.”

Gu Ziheng whispered, “But… I don’t want to support someone else’s comeback performance.”

“I didn’t ask you to support someone else. Who said I’m not participating in the Grand Finale?” Lu Miao picked up a crystal shrimp dumpling and handed it to him.

“Huh? But you… didn’t you already… eliminated in the semifinals…” Gu Ziheng stumbled, afraid to say the word “eliminated” and upset Lu Miao.

Before he could finish speaking, the phone on the table started ringing.

Lu Miao reached out, shook it in front of Gu Ziheng, and then pressed the speaker button.

“Hello, Lu Miao, I’m the director of ‘Super Brain.’ There seems to have been some issues with yesterday’s semifinals, and we need you to come to the television station today to reconfirm.”

“Okay, understood.”

Lu Miao hung up the phone, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Gu Ziheng. “Canceling it still?”

Gu Ziheng chuckled and immediately dialed his manager’s number on his phone.

Due to the issues in the semifinals, the recording for the Grand Finale was canceled today, but the news hadn’t been released yet.

When Lu Miao entered the television station, she coincidentally ran into Lu Siyu and a group of contestants from the neighboring show “Idol 99” coming out of the dressing room.

Upon seeing Lu Miao, the contestant with the number 38 sneered, “She used connections to get into the show and snatch opportunities from others, and now that she lost, she still has the face to come to the show.”

The contestant with the number 7 chimed in, “Exactly, if I were her, I would dig a hole and bury myself here. Coming here just to be criticized.”

Lu Siyu, standing beside them, said, “Don’t say that. She didn’t want to lose and bring shame to the country.”

Lu Miao was already tired of hearing her hypocritical words. She walked past them directly and said to Lu Siyu, “See you later.”

Then she headed straight toward the office of the production team.

Lu Siyu’s heart tightened suddenly. What did Lu Miao mean by that?

They are not even in the same program group, not to mention she has already been eliminated.

Some of the nearby contestants started gossiping and taunting as they watched Lu Siyu’s back.

A staff member entered Hall 2 and approached Lu Siyu, saying, “Lu Siyu, come with me.”

Lu Siyu saw the staff member’s “Super Brain” ID card and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Biting her lip, she asked anxiously, “May I ask what this is about?”

“You’ll find out when you get there,” the staff member replied, leading her into the office.

Lu Miao, along with the other contestants from the “Super Brain” semifinals and all the staff members, was present.

Except for Lu Miao and the person in charge, almost everyone else looked puzzled and clearly had no idea what was happening.

After Lu Siyu entered the room, the program director immediately took out their phone and projected a video on the LCD screen on the wall.

It was the previously cut portion from the surveillance footage.

In the video, Lu Siyu entered the office, performed some operations on the computer, ana quicKIY lert.

Then, during the same time period, there was a record of the challenge project being copied and transmitted from the computer.

Everyone in the office turned to look at Lu Siyu.

“Lu Siyu, this is the evidence video that you stole the question and leaked to the program team’s contestants in advance. Do you have anything else to say?”The program manager’s expression was ugly.

The challenge was leaked in advance. Not only did the hundreds of people on the program team waste their recording work yesterday, but it also caused huge economic losses and was seriously unfair to the other contestants.

If it weren’t for someone sending him this evidence last night, Lu Miao might have been continuously slandered and the finals could have been lost to the foreign contestant, once again trampling on the dignity of the country.

Lu Siyu’s fingers tightened by her side as she calmly spoke, “I admit that it’s my face in the video, but that doesn’t mean the person in the video is me.”

“Oh, so you’re suggesting someone stole your face?” Wang Meng sarcastically chimed in.

“Al face-swapping technology is already advanced. It’s not difficult to create such a video. If you want, I can demonstrate it right here.”

Lu Siyu turned to the program director and said, “I don’t know where this video came from, but I participated in ‘Idol 99,’ which has no competition with ‘Super Brain.’ I have no reason to take the risk of stealing ‘Super Brain’ questions.”

The program director hesitated, seemingly considering the validity of her statement.

Stealing the questions would bring her no benefit and would only lead to consequences if discovered.

Seeing the program director’s hesitation, Lu Siyu gathered herself and continued, “I hope you can reveal the person who maliciously defamed me by sending this video. I will have my lawyer file a lawsuit against them to protect my reputation.”

Her words were righteous, causing some of the program staff to waver.

Lu Miao sat calmly in the corner; she had known that Lu Siyu wouldn’t easily admit it.

The mobile phone was taken out, and with a pointed finger, a folder was opened, ready to be projected onto the screen.

Suddenly, a voice came from the doorway, “I can prove that she is lying. The person entering the office in the video and stealing the challenge questions and answers is indeed her..”
