Suddenly, Zhang Li felt something cold and icy wrapping around her ankle. She thought it was the wet mop in the restroom, so she bent down, intending to pull it away. But as her fingertips touched the object, it felt cold and soft, like a dead person’s hand soaked in water.

“Hehe~ I’ve got you now~” That hoarse and terrifying voice echoed beneath Zhang Li, sending shivers down anyone’s spine.

“Ahhh!” Zhang Li opened her mouth wide and let out a scream of terror, completely losing control. She collapsed to the ground and crawled in the opposite direction, uncontrollably sobbing with tears and mucus streaming down her face.

At that moment, there came a sudden and urgent knocking on the restroom door—three quick, consecutive knocks.

“No, don’t come closer, I beg you…” Zhang Li had already curled herself up in the farthest corner of the restroom cubicle. There was nowhere left for her to hide. She was drenched in cold sweat, nervously staring at the door, her voice choked with fear.

“I’ve found you…~” The terrifying voice grew closer as if singing softly in her ear. Zhang Li’s pupils dilated with fear, reaching their limit. In the end, her eyes rolled back, and she lost consciousness completely.

At the same time, the restroom lights flickered on, and the door opened from the outside. A pale hand reached in first.

“How boring.” Fu Xiaoya took off her silicone gloves and tossed them into the trash bin. She looked at the unconscious Zhang Li on the ground, a wicked smile on her face. “Fortunately, you’re such a fool. Had you actually harmed me, be ready to offer your own skin as payment.”

Fu Xiaoya smiled gently as she admired Zhang Li’s terrifying expression while unconscious, satisfied with the reminder, “Next time you speak, remember to mind your language.”

Leaving behind an air of grace, Fu Xiaoya elegantly walked out in her high heels, her strides light and accompanied by a melodious hum. She made sure not to overlook anything, even taking the time to place the “Cleaning in Progress” sign back on the restroom door.

When Fu Xiaoya returned, the interviews were still ongoing. After the commotion caused by Zhang Li earlier, the pace of the interviews had quickened. Within an hour, all the contestants had completed their interviews. Everyone nervously awaited the results, and despite their dislike for Fu Xiaoya, no one dared to provoke her after what had happened with Zhang Li.

“Ladies and gentlemen, after an intense competition, we have finally found the lucky individual who possesses both skill and luck!” The host intentionally created suspense, delaying the announcement of the final qualifier’s name, heightening the atmosphere. People below anxiously clenched their hands, whispering to each other. They believed that the most promising contestant was Shi Yuan, contestant number 850. She had previously been a trainee overseas and even signed with an entertainment company. She was the most talented among all the applicants and had already gained some fame, making her a top contender in the auditions.

After a while, the screen displayed the headshots of the ten contestants, including Fu Xiaoya. This result wasn’t unexpected for everyone, as Fu Xiaoya’s interview had taken quite a long time. However, they couldn’t help but feel dissatisfied. Fu Xiaoya was just an amateur with no prior experience in the entertainment industry, so how did she rank among the top after just one interview? There must be some undisclosed secret behind it.

“Alright, now let us unveil our final lucky individual!” With the host’s announcement, the lights began to flash on the headshots of the ten contestants, eventually freezing on Fu Xiaoya’s image.

When the entire audience’s gaze fell upon Fu Xiaoya’s image, it was also magnified. Her hair, with a slight curl, cascaded down her shoulders as she sat on a swing, dressed in a beige long gown. With a gentle and radiant smile, she exuded an air of elegance and grace. Although the other contestants were unwilling to accept it, they couldn’t deny that Fu Xiaoya had the most remarkable appearance among them. Her beauty possessed a certain ethereal quality, untouched by the mundane world, which they themselves lacked. The way she smiled was so enchanting that it evoked feelings of jealousy in others.

“Congratulations to contestant number 684, Miss Fu Xiaoya, for becoming an artist of our Holy View Entertainment and earning the opportunity to participate in the variety show ‘Debut, Girl’!”

The spotlight fell upon Fu Xiaoya, as she confidently raised her hand to greet everyone. Bathed in the spotlight, she appeared exceptionally beautiful, transforming a simple interview result into an awards ceremony, overshadowing the others and making them fade into the background.

Some questioned the outcome of the interview: “Why her? Just because she’s good-looking? Has Holy View Entertainment become so shallow in their judgment? There must be some hidden agenda here. It’s obvious that Shi Yuan has far greater talent than Fu Xiaoya! Why was it Fu Xiaoya who got selected in the end?”
