The Master's Mask Unveiled Again-Chapter 303 - 302: Exploding, Cang Xue is from our Kunpeng School?
Chapter 303: Chapter 302: Exploding, Cang Xue is from our Kunpeng School?
A crowd of excited students all got up and surged toward the backstage.
Especially Bai Fangfei, who at this moment seemed to have abandoned all care and was leading the charge.
In the midst of the crowded scene, Sheng Zijin was protected by Sheng Zixin, shaking her head at the students, “So inexperienced.”
Although she had never seen Cang Xue in person, she would never behave so improperly.
“Big sis, we really made a splash today!” Sheng Zixin couldn’t contain his pride, and the whole school basked in the glory, sharing in the pride.
“Look at the faces of their school leaders, they’re all turning green!”
...
Sheng Zijin gently shook her head with a hint of tact, “Hmm, this is just the beginning. Let’s go and take a look too.”
The school leaders and a group of teachers at this point simply couldn’t maintain control, only being able to shout about safety and avoiding crowding.
Then, these people, who were unable to run, could only sit in their seats and sigh deeply.
They didn’t have the resources to provide such a benefit to the students and felt quite apologetic when they thought about it. To be frank, Era Middle School indeed had its winning strategy, which shook their school to its core in no time.
It wasn’t until the students in the auditorium had settled down that Xiao Qimo, from the corner, slowly got up and said indifferently, “Let’s go, let’s go backstage too.”
“Here he comes.” Ye Jinwen followed closely behind, panting as he ran and muttered, “Qimo, don’t you think Cang Xue’s voice sounds a bit familiar?”
—
Backstage equipment room.
Everyone looked at the door that secluded everything and took a deep breath. The excitement they felt when they first burst out was now replaced with an equal measure of nervousness.
Beneath such a beautiful voice, what would the face look like?
Tall or short, fat or thin, what age, married or not…
And the answers to these questions lay just beyond that door.
Their excitement matched that of fans meeting their idol, not knowing what to do with themselves.
They refrained from talking loudly or crowding too much on their own accord, simply delegating the person in the front to knock on the door, then to meet Cang Xue.
Bai Fangfei, positioned at the front, was more than willing to take on the role and even took the opportunity to send a message of joy back home; she really couldn’t wait any longer.
Bai Fangfei and two other boys looked at each other and then reverently gazed at the door to the equipment room.
Everyone was waiting for the door to open.
Three seconds.
Five seconds.
Ten seconds.
Until after a full half minute, a sound finally came from the equipment room.
Lu Mian stood up, snapped her fingers at two of the equipment room staff, and they, as if awakening from a deep dream, nodded numbly at Lu Mian.
Lu Mian leisurely bundled up her headphone cord and opened the door.
The corridor outside was packed with people.
Lu Mian: “…”
She had heard there were people outside, but she hadn’t expected there to be so many.
Those students standing on the windowsill need to be careful…
She tilted her head, facing it all with utmost composure.
The quiet, it probably lasted for about half a minute.
The students at the door regained their senses and became unsettled again. Where there was once dead silence, now chaos had erupted.
Today was truly bizarre, one shock after another hitting them!
“Lu Mian?”
“Why is it you? Where is Cang Xue?” Bai Fangfei craned her neck to peer into the equipment room, and after looking all around, she spotted only two workers in work clothes.
And then… then she was flabbergasted.
“So… Lu Mian is Cang Xue?”
Someone in the crowd exclaimed these words. After they were spoken, the large ensemble became suddenly quiet, dead silent.
All eyes were fixed on Lu Mian, seeking answers beneath her calm facade.
Lu Mian brushed a strand of hair from her forehead and nodded, “Yes, it’s just like you are all thinking.”
With that sentence, she essentially admitted it!
“Ah—”
Screams echoed up and down the hallway, sending shockwaves among the boys and girls.
“That means Cang Xue has been right among us! Cang Xue is from our Kunpeng School!”
“Ahhhhh…”
A wave of prairie dog squeals drifted down the corridor.
It wasn’t until Bai Fangfei staggered through the crowd, shouting, “Impossible! This can’t be possible!” that she interrupted the beautiful fantasies of all Kunpeng School students.
“No, you’re not Cang Xue. You’re just imitating her voice, you definitely can’t be Cang Xue herself!” Bai Fangfei shrieked, “There are so many people in Z Country who imitate her, you’re pretty good to be able to create such confusion with fakery!”
Gasping for breath, she uttered these words, convincing herself that Lu Mian wasn’t Cang Xue, while trying to persuade everyone else.
If Cang Xue really were Lu Mian, what cooperation would the Bai Family have to talk about, what about turning their fortunes around?
Everyone looked at each other, their wonderful fantasies shattering like soap bubbles.
Yes, how could someone like Cang Xue possibly be a student like Lu Mian?
It was just too unrealistic.
Indeed, it was imitated… right?
Yet, it really did sound like her.
At that moment, Sheng Zijin moved to the front of the crowd, patted Bai Fangfei’s shoulder, signaling her to calm down.
Bai Fangfei immediately clung to this lifeline, “Sister Sheng, you know Cang Xue, don’t you? Cang Xue couldn’t possibly be Lu Mian, right!”
“…” Sheng Zijin’s heart was turbulent, but she maintained a composed exterior. She patted Bai Fangfei and walked past her to Lu Mian, finally giving her a thorough look.
She was certain; this person wasn’t the one Grandpa had brought.
Therefore, she also agreed with Bai Fangfei’s views.
“Your imitation is very convincing,” Sheng Zijin’s statement was conclusive.
Lu Mian smiled, saying nothing.
If no one believed the truth, there was nothing to be said.
Seeing no defense from Lu Mian, Sheng Zijin was even more assured of her judgment. She asked, “What about the USB I brought out earlier? The audio? Is there a problem with it?”
If there were no problems with it, Lu Mian wouldn’t need to impersonate Cang Xue here.
Unfortunately for her, Lu Mian was unaware that she had already heard that audio recording and was very familiar with its content.
Director Qiang and several teachers arrived belatedly, taken aback by the scene.

It seems that, from now on, one ought to carry Fast-acting Heart-saving Pills when going out.
Sheng Zijin said, “Director Qiang, this is something concerning your school. I’d appreciate it if you could have your students hand over my USB. Most importantly, bring out that audio clip. It was a gift for your school, and it can’t be destroyed by someone with ulterior motives.”
As she spoke, she effectively cast blame on the school.
Lurking in the hallway’s passageway, Lu Xinnuan heard all this and scuttled away frightened. None of this was her business—it was between Su Luo and Lu Mian!
Su Luo walked over from the back of the crowd, seeing all fingers pointed at Lu Mian. She addressed Qiang Hua directly.
“This is my fault, I was the one who—”
Lu Mian smiled and pulled her aside, halting her mid-sentence. The people from Era Middle School wouldn’t care if it was intentional or not, they just wanted an excuse to make a fuss.
She had seen through it all, so she took out her phone and swiped through the pages for a few moments.
Maybe she should post a Weibo to prove it?
