Chapter 686 - Spewing Nonsense When Speaking (1/2)

Those clothes were obviously tastefully chosen by Chen Xiaoyan. She understood Ye Lingchen well and ensured that no part of his body was exposed.

It was perfect that way.

Ye Lingchen put away his clothes and the call came as promised.

“Hello, are you Superman Sensei? I’m a crew member from King of Masked Singers and I’m tasked with welcoming you. My name is Su Mo.”

“Hello there.”

“Have you received the mask and costume?”

“I have.”

“Does everything fit? I’ll tell the designer to replace them if they don’t fit.”

“It’s fine.”

“Alright then. I’m here to inform you that the preparations for the program crew are all done, if all goes to plan, your program will be scheduled for tomorrow. You can come over this afternoon to familiarize yourself with the place. We’ll be broadcasting the whole show live, so it’s best to prepare in advance in order to prevent any issues from happening.”

“This afternoon, is it?”

“Mm. Do you have time to spare?”

“I do.”

“Mm, okay then. I’ll be waiting for you here. You can call me anytime.”

“Sure.”

It was important to familiarize themselves with it. After all, the entire show would be a live broadcast that had no option of rewinding. Therefore, he ought to be prepared for it.

Everyone wore a mask, and the idea of the program was very special. Everyone’s identity was kept confidential and the program group had to be extra cautious. Should any mistake happen, it would surely turn them into a laughingstock.

Of course, those were all trivial matters for Ye Lingchen.

3.30pm in the afternoon.

The King of Masked Singers’ program team were all eager and excited. They knew that everyone who went there that day were well-known singers, and despite being in the dark over their actual identities, they actually looked forward to it even more.

“How’s things? How many people have come here?”

“We have six now.”

“Is everything in place?”

“Mm. Each person is in a different room and I made sure none of them bumped into each other.”

“Good.”

“This show is really mysterious. Even our own people have no idea who’s who. Only those who invited them know who they are.”

“Makes it all the more interesting, doesn’t it?”

“Hurry up and get ready. Let the one who came first test their mics.”

Everyone went to do their respective duties.

They had to prepare stage effects, sound debugging, and sound testing for the instrumentalists.

At that point, a staff member had led one of the masked singers onto the stage. The singer’s pseudonym was Sun. The mask was also a smiling sun, which was both cute and festive.

Everyone looked at him curiously since they did not know his identity. The star also disguised himself very well too, communicating in a fake voice that sounded quite funny.

Then came the mic test. The person’s comical theatrics vanished as soon as they started singing. Their voice was loud and full of character.

The mic test was very successful, and although no one could guess who it was, the person’s singing was commendable and had every right to be on that stage.

Backstage with the program crew.

A little girl held her mobile phone tightly and paced to-and-fro. She looked a little distressed and anxious.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and made a call. “Superman Sensei, are you here yet?”

“Oh, I just arrived,” Ye Lingchen’s voice echoed faintly.

“You’re here? Where are you?” Su Mo quickly asked.

“At your entrance,” Ye Lingchen smiled.

Su Mo raised her head and walked forward quickly. She then saw a masked man who was completely covered from head to toe standing at the door.

“You are… Superman Sensei?”

“That’s me.”

“You came here in this outfit?” Su Mo asked. She was expecting to see the true face of a certain star, but he came fully dressed.

“What’s wrong? Are you disappointed?” Ye Lingchen looked at the little girl.

“I thought you would change your clothes when you got here, I wanted to see—”

“You wanted to look at me while I changed my clothes?!”
