Next One Is a Babe

Sophia sat in her chair and commented, “I wish these people wouldn’t come here anymore. They’re so noisy.”

Robin was in a daze, so she didn't hear Sophia's words at all.

Turning her head, Sophia looked at Robin and called out, “What are you thinking about? Why do you look so strange?”

Robin came back to her senses all at once. “Nothing. I’m not thinking about anything.”

As Sophia felt a little sore all over, she decided to close the shop a little earlier. Seeing that there were no customers, she allowed Robin to go home first.

On the way back in a cab, Logan called her to inform that Ian was included in the talent show that would be broadcasted on this day. Ian was done recording and the show would air later in the day. Sophia immediately became excited. “Really? Ian would be included in the show today?”

Logan said that he had specifically asked Lorraine about it, so this information was definitely reliable. Since Sophia had been following up with the talent show for the past few days, she was aware of how many talented singers there were in the show. She was not a professional in singing, so she couldn’t really analyze much, but she had a feeling that Ian’s opponents were very strong.

Initially, she was anxious for him, but now that Ian was about to confront these people head-on, her heart felt somewhat relieved. It was finally time to witness Ian’s true strength! Sophia returned home, checked the time, and decided to go and prepare dinner first. After she finished her meal, it was almost time for the show to start. She rushed up to her computer and waited.

Ian was slated to appear during the second half of the show. Before him, there were three contestants who weren’t very good. Sophia wondered if Lorraine had deliberately arranged for them to appear first. Thus, against such poor contestants, Ian would appear to be much more talented.

When Sophia heard Ian sing, she could finally release the ropes that had been constricting her heart. Ian was still the same. He sat on a highchair and held a guitar close to him as he sang his heart out in a voice that was clear and gentle.

The results were as expected. All the talent show judges clapped hard for him and invited him to join their respective teams for the rest of the show. Ian took the microphone over and thanked them. After that, he chose one of the judges as his mentor and joined that judge’s team.

The host standing to the side asked him the reason for his choice. To that, Ian smiled and replied, “My girlfriend really likes this mentor.”

Sophia was stunned as she stared at the screen. All of a sudden, she remembered that when she heard about the mentor lineup, she did mention that she liked one of them. To be honest, she didn’t really know much about singing. All she knew was that the mentor had sung two songs that she enjoyed.
