CHAPTER 21: PREMIERE STAGE BROADCAST

Jensen Sterling and Mia Sutton were both very busy. Especially Mia, after leaving the Sterling Family, Jensen sent her back to the show team. Then he hurried back to his production crew.

...

Sitting in the car, Jensen’s phone rang. He looked at it in surprise and answered: "Mom, what’s up?"

"Just wanted to tell you, since Mia is your wife, you should care more about her and protect her more, understand?"

"Hmm."

After exchanging a few words, they hung up. Jensen lowered his eyes and paused for a moment.

Then he turned on his phone. He was not in the habit of keeping an eye on others, so he neglected some aspects of Mia.

Just like last time, and again this time.

His mother would never call him out of the blue without good reason.

Looking at the news online, Jensen frowned. He wouldn’t interfere in Mia’s career, but if some people wanted to play tricks, they should not mess with his people.

Mia spent the past few days practicing, whether it was dance or singing. Not only talent was needed, but effort was also equally important.

Days passed by, and amidst the anticipation of online viewers, "Shining Stars" finally premiered.

The show already had considerable buzz, and with the deliberate hype from the production team beforehand, the ratings were needless to say.

Almost as soon as the first episode was released on the platform, a huge wave of people flooded in.

Although the trending topic that day brought Mia into the public eye, she didn’t actually have many fans. The comments were full of names of other popular contestants, and those mentioning her were mostly there to criticize.

[Ahhhhh, it’s started, it’s started, quickly, let me grab my little stool and sit down.]

[Another day to find new idols, so happy!]

[This time I’m going to find many wives, love them together, pamper them together!]

[To the person above, it’s not even daylight yet, stop dreaming.]

[Sis is so thin, sis is so beautiful, sis’s... waist!]

[... What’s with that last line, something strange slipped in.]

As soon as the video started, the comments were flooding non-stop, and of course, there were mentions of Mia.

[I just want to see when that classical beauty, the enchantress, will appear?]

[To the person above, I think it’s necessary to educate you. She’s totally a waste of space, commonly known as a ’pretty face’, I advise you to tread carefully.]

[No emotional intelligence, no brains, no skills, the spokesperson of nothingness!]

With so many comments like these, viewers of the show naturally had a much lower impression of Mia.

......

The production team had put a lot of effort into this show, as talent competitions had been somewhat lackluster in recent years. A great deal of effort was put into this one.

Whether it was lighting, stage design, or costumes, everything was impeccable.

The contestants recruited this year were also very impressive, with standout talents and some even having their own fan bases.

Especially Lynn Joyner, who had good looks, a cool demeanor, and outstanding talent. As soon as her scene appeared, the comments went wild, cheering madly.

[Ahhhhh, sis is on screen, the ice-cold beauty, see you at the top!]

[Sis, sis, smile please, if you smile, my heart will melt completely.]

Lynn’s stage style leaned towards the cool side, and the song was challenging, but she executed it perfectly with a very stable stage presence.

After the performance ended, the fans were ecstatic.

Then, in the next moment, her fans were stunned. Wait a minute, did their sis’s expression just change? Did their sis just exchange glances with another beauty!
