Yao Ling prepared for three minutes. Taking a few deep breaths, she gave an OK gesture to signal that she was ready. The staff began to play the video.
"I really want to hide this side of me till I die โ" ๐ป๐โฏโฏ๐ค๐๐๐๐ฐ๐๐๐.๐ธ๐๐ฎ
Her voice was hoarse and sharp as it broke. The interviewers all frowned.
What happened? Was this... Yao Lingโs voice?
...
In the lounge.
Xin Yue took out her phone to scrolled through Weibo. She seemed to be in a good mood and kept her eyes on the time.
9.35 A.M.
Yao Ling should be finishing up soon. Just as Xin Yue had this thought, the door to the lounge was opened forcefully. Everyone turned to look instinctively and saw the staff accompanied Yao Ling coming out. Her face was ashen and her eyes red. She kept her head low.
Everyone was shocked.
Everyone had ten minutes in the interview room but only five minutes had passed. Why was Yao Ling back already?
The staff looked at Yao Ling and said gently, "Go have a rest and drink some water. See if your voice recovers later."
Yao Ling kept her lips sealed and nodded. "Thanks." ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ฐ๐๐๐ง๐ผ๐๐๐.๐ฐ๐จ๐ฆ
The staff looked at the list of names and looked at the crowd. "Fang Siyu, itโs your turn."
Fang Siyu got up from her chair and headed inside. Yao Ling went to her seat and sat down.
The girl beside her frowned and asked, "What happened?"
Yao Ling seemed to be terrified. Her nails dug into her hand. She replied in a hoarse voice, "During the interview my voice was broken. I couldnโt do the voice over."
Yao Ling gripped her fingers as her breathing became heavier uncontrollably.
The girl asked her, "Do you know when your voice started to have issues?"
Yao Ling gave it a thought and mumbled, "I have the habit of warming up my vocals in the morning. My voice was still fine before coming here."
"Are you saying that the problem only occurred after you arrived here?" the girl asked.
Yao Ling gave it a careful thought and looked at the girl with certainty. "Yes, Iโm sure it happened to me while here."
As she said that, she frowned and looked at the cup of water in front of her. Could the water have been laced with something? She was not the only one who had drank water that had been provided by staff.
The girl sensed it too and whispered, "Letโs wait till Fang Siyuโs interview ends. If nothing happens to her and only your voice has a problem, someone must be targeting you."
Yao Ling nodded with an ugly expression.
