Chapter 172
Chapter 172
As the plot progressed, everyone watched as Qin Zhao's character, playing the son, died in battle, and finally Ji Fei, playing the mother, welcomed home the injured and retired Little Seven.
Ji Fei looked at Little Seven, who hung his head and whimpered, as if apologizing to Ji Fei for not bringing her son back safely.
Ji Fei, with a choked voice, stepped forward and stroked Little Seven's head, "Good boy, welcome home."
Finally, accompanied by a background music depicting the passage of time, and stage lighting demonstrating the four seasons, Ji Fei led Little Seven slowly to the front of the stage. Her figure gradually became hunched as she faced the audience area, struggling to sit down, cuddling with the dog while gazing into the distance.
Behind them, the large screen gradually displayed various photographs of military families, ultimately forming the nation's border line.
This scene was powerful and moving, not only did the audience's breathing become heavy, but even the online comments were filled with emotional tears.
"There's actually no drama, but... it's so beautiful, wuwuwu."
"Our peaceful lives are because some people are bearing the burden for us, wuwuwu."
"I just wanted to watch a variety show, wuwuwu, how did it become... wuwuwu..."
"They are the big brothers and sisters of our great family! The bravest and most fearless ones who will always stand in front of us to protect us from bad people."
"Suddenly all those scandals created by misbehaving celebrities seem like jokes!"
"Yes, they're just jokes!"
"I looked it up, Little Seven is actually a drug-detecting dog! But it's good, his handler retired too and is fine, otherwise I would have cried myself to death online today."
"Didn't expect a drama-free stage play to be so good, the top-tier group is amazing!"
As the stage play's countdown ended, the director and producer finally let out the breath they'd been holding.
After all, they had just been quite shocked by Sun Man and Lu Fei's last-minute stage changes. This way of openly performing the truth... it was like a troublemaker who finally agreed to behave but ended up stirring things up differently, just like a contagious disease.
However, they had already learned to handle such situations smoothly. They just started getting nervous, worried that the top-tier group might be affected and cause some issues.
They were mentally prepared for any impact.
But unexpectedly... it ended safely.
Everything was proper and normal... so normal that it felt abnormal to them.
So the previous group used the stage to resolve some personal grudges, but the top-tier group didn't plan to use this opportunity to regulate others in the entertainment industry?
Finally, the director and producer dared to reply to those friends who were anxiously asking about the situation.
Although their friends weren't the ones feeling guilty, their friends' friends were a different story.
Everyone was on edge because of the top-tier group's performance.
Group message: Apart from Sun Man and Lang Zhe's matter, nothing happened tonight, the entertainment industry's judge is taking a break.
Then they received a message from Pei Mingxuan.
The director and producer immediately felt uneasy. But after opening it, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Knowing that someone might cause trouble later, they weren't worried. Whether in terms of popularity or entertainment industry connections, the director and producer confidently considered it a minor issue. It would just add one last wave of heat to the show, nothing too serious.
Just as they were about to reply, they saw the trainer in the filming area suddenly walk forward, "Little Seven?"
The audience area also erupted with questioning sounds.
The director and producer looked up to see Little Seven, who had just been obediently sitting as Ji Fei's support, suddenly stand up, showing a fierce expression, barking at a particular direction, his body half-crouched as if ready to pounce at any moment.
He was targeting the direction where the Qin family was sitting.
A large dog suddenly acting this way was quite frightening, even Ji Fei was startled, "L-Little Seven."
Little Seven's trainer was even more shocked, wanting to give hand signals, but noticed that Little Seven kept staring at one spot, clearly showing warning signs of detecting a target.
Having been retired for over two years, this sudden behavior caught even the trainer off guard.
Little Seven's barking became more urgent, and the people closest to him were scared and started screaming, continuously moving to the side.
Peng Li, frightened by the barking, was still cursing, "Why bring an animal to a performance, see what happens? Be careful your precious daughter-in-law doesn't get bitten!"
"Shut your filthy mouth, that's a drug-detecting dog, smarter than you!" Qin's Mom immediately shouted back.
When Lang Zhe heard this, he immediately stood up in fear, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, ignoring the sharp pain caused by his sudden movement.
He also felt that the dog was staring directly at him, their straight-line distance was no more than five meters.
Lang Zhe immediately turned to run.
But dog barks followed closely behind, accompanied by audience gasps, a large black shadow leaped through the air.
Just as Lang Zhe stepped onto the stairs, he was tackled down, and with a scream, Little Seven bit down hard on his leg, preventing his escape.
His hat fell off, and someone recognized the unfortunate man, exclaiming, "That's Lang Zhe!"
The studio exploded with chaos.
Cameras instinctively pointed in that direction, and the live stream comments went wild.
"What's going on? Lang Zhe is here too? And got bitten by the dog?"
"So, dogs can tell who's a scumbag and who's bad?"
"This isn't just any dog, it's the dog brought by our entertainment industry judge, so there was still judgment after all?"
"No, wait, everyone, Little Seven is a drug-detecting dog! He's a professional! Even retired, he wouldn't bite people randomly!"
"I've seen videos like this, Little Seven was giving warning signals just now, proving he detected drugs."
The comments were buzzing with discussion, and the scene was chaos.
No one noticed Ji Fei still on stage.
Actually, when Little Seven lunged forward, Ji Fei instinctively stood up, wanting to stop him, but couldn't match Little Seven's speed, causing her to lose balance at the edge.
As Ji Fei was thinking about what position to jump down in to minimize injury, through the noisy studio, she heard a deep voice filled with urgency yet giving infinite security.
"Don't be afraid, fall back, I'll catch you."
Ji Fei's brain couldn't process the situation that quickly, but she could tell it was Qin Xian's voice.
For a moment, Ji Fei actually wanted to obey, abandon self-preservation, and fall backward, feeling somehow certain that Qin Xian would keep his word and she didn't need to worry.
But her instinctive nature made her reflexively choose self-preservation at the last moment, twisting her body to jump down facing forward.
As she jumped, she saw Qin Xian ready to catch her below the stage, his deep eyes not reflecting the chaotic surroundings, only Ji Fei's complete figure.
She didn't know when he had rushed to the stage.
He had his arms open, the solid arm lines visible through his fitted suit clearly showing strength.
If she had really let him catch her, she would definitely have been held securely.
Ji Fei actually felt a moment of regret.
As a result, Ji Fei jumped with force while Qin Xian was catching, and they collided.
Ji Fei's impact made him grunt, while she managed to bear-hug his solid frame.
Fortunately, Qin Xian was stable enough, otherwise Ji Fei's impact would have knocked him to the ground.
Aliali: 6747c480c4f3f33ac46fd021After steadying Ji Fei, Qin Xian put her down but didn't let go, instead loosely embracing her while looking down with concern, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine... thank you."
Ji Fei inexplicably felt her heart racing and couldn't quite look at Qin Xian.
Peng Li's scream came from nearby.
"Ah, you damn dog, get away! Don't bite my godson!"
Ji Fei came back to her senses, stepped out of the embrace, and immediately looked over at the situation.
[Strange, what's wrong with Little Seven? Too bad I can't see the dog's information... wait, let me check Lang Zhe's...]
Other members of the Qin family also heard the thoughts and turned to look, seeing Ji Fei and Qin Xian standing together.
Just as they were wondering, they heard Ji Fei's thoughts emit a sharp ringing, almost drowning out the surrounding chaos.
[Oh my god! Is he crazy? Actually helping transport drugs! And hiding them there!]
