Chapter 68 Ziana Is a Bully
The next day was the day of Love 101’s first performance.
In the early morning at around 8 o’clock, the internet was abuzz.
This was because the night before, Sisily had posted a cryptic Instagram post.
Sisily: [I’ve never encountered such an infuriating thing before. It hurts so much to have my work stolen by someone else, but because I have no power or influence, nobody will believe me. Today is truly a terrible day. I hope that when I wake up tomorrow, everything will be better.]
Sisily’s Instagram post was completely out of context, and there was no response afterwards, which only fueled people’s imaginations.
“Give you a hug, sis. We all know that your work is your own. Don’t worry, the public’s eyes are
discerning! Hug.jpg.”
“What’s going on? If I’m not mistaken, someone stole Sisily’s work? Who would be so shameless?”
“Sisily has been in the industry for so many years and has always been honest and hardworking.
Who would bully her like this?”
“I get it, but I don’t fully understand. Are you saying it’s that heiress?”
“Who else could it be besides her? It’s so ridiculous. She’s supposed to be a noble lady, but she stoops to stealing other people’s work? Is her face only good for throwing away?”
“What’s happening? Can someone please explain it to me?”
All kinds of speculations were made in the comments section of Instagram. Just as things were
getting heated, Love 101’s first performance was about to start.
At this very moment, one of Sisily’s biggest fans posted a lengthy article with a firm tone, accusing Ziana and the entire production team of bullying Sisily and covering it up.
The evidence was a video from a rehearsal.
In the video, Sisily and Ziana were engaged in a composition showdown. Then, the camera turned to show the director nodding and bowing to Ziana.
Netizens were furious after watching the video.
“When will the production team can be justice? Just asking, will the show go downhill without Ziana?”
“You can tell Miss Scott has a strong background just by looking at how Mr. Zern is polite to her!
Everyone here should watch your mouth.”
“This is too much bullying! If Ziana has evidence, she should show it! If she doesn’t, then shut up!”
“Are you kidding me? Does anyone really believe that Ziana can make her own music? Don’t forget, she can’t even sing in tune! She must have stolen the composition!”
“Does anyone have evidence to prove that Ziana stole it? I mean, she’s beautiful and rich. She was eliminated from the show, and now she’s going home to inherit her family’s billions. Why would she need to steal your composition? It’s ridiculous!”
“Who knows how she got her money? I saw her dining with some older men not too long ago!”
“You know what, someone anonymously leaked that Miss Scott hasn’t been living in Love 101 apartment lately. Think about it.”
After these comments, everyone’s attention was inevitably drawn away from the composition incident and focused on Ziana’s private life.
Comments were like throwing stones, causing thousands of waves. One comment after another
revealed Ziana’s secrets.
“I knew she didn’t look like a wealthy heiress. Turns out she’s selling a*s!”
“Your mom sold your whole family! You’re jealous of my Ziana because you don’t have money? Where do you come from, you disgusting maggot from a dirty gutter?”
“Dirty-minded people see everything as dirty! What’s wrong with dining with older men? Do wealthy people not have daughters?”
“Her profile says she lives in Spirit Mountain. What wealthy heiress lives in the mountains?”
“She won a random lottery of 2 million, but my friend won and still hasn’t received the money! She’s just pretending to be rich!”
“A bumpkin from the mountains, h**king up with a rich man, and proud of it? Does that kind of person deserve to be an idol in the entertainment industry?”
”
At 9 am, Love 101 live broadcast officially began.
The intense battle moved from Instagram to the live stream, and the highest number of concurrent viewers unexpectedly exceeded 30 million, with a rising trend.
Mr. Zern, who was just about to celebrate his record-breaking achievement, was pulled away by Mr. Hall, the deputy director, to look at Instagram.
Soon, his face turned sour.
At the same time..
Ziana, who was waiting backstage to go on stage, learned about what happened on Instagram from
the maid.
She looked at the direction of the comments, which were all directed towards her and the old men, but instead of getting angry, she flirtatiously tossed her long hair.
The maid worriedly asked, “Mr. Scott called and asked for your opinion on how to handle this.”
Ziana threw a seductive glance and replied calmly, “No rush.”
She looked over the crowd at Sisily sitting not far away, tugged at the corner of her mouth, and then lazily raised her eyebrows at Vivi.
Meanwhile, on the stage, the first group was performing.
Candy, as the captain, showed exceptional leadership skills.
Their team had already shown great stability during rehearsal, and during the live broadcast, they were in perfect sync, making for a flawless performance.
After their performance, the judges gave them high scores, and it was no surprise that the entire group would advance to the next round.
Soon it was the turn of the second group.
As soon as Sisily appeared, rumors on Instagram started spreading and netizens increased their
insults towards Ziana.
Sisily’s fans also came out to defend her, praising her compositions and once again accusing Ziana of plagiarism and stealing compositions.
“Sisily’s composition is absolutely amazing! Oh my g*d, it gave me goosebumps all over my body!
She’s so talented!”
“Sisily, the new generation composer! I didn’t expect her to be so good at dancing, and even composing music!”
“Some people who claim to be omnipotent steal other people’s songs every day, while those who are truly omnipotent are being bullied by her. Is there any fairness for the program group?”
“Sisily is just too quiet and ladylike, but if anyone bullies her, they have to ask if our fans agree or
not!”
“Ziana plagiarized! Stole the music! If she still performs with this stolen music, just wait and see if
I’ll scold her!”
Amidst the noise, Sisily’s performance ended. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

However, netizens were amazed by Ziana’s choreography, which had a direct consequence of not being impressed with Sisily’s choreography.
Although Sisily worked very hard and her choreography was unique, Ziana’s choreography had already spread widely on the internet and everyone had seen it.
So her choreography was not particularly outstanding and did not receive any extra points.
Fortunately, her music was really good, so her overall score was still good, and she was still expected to stay in second place without any surprises.
The performances of the following groups also confirmed this point.
Sisily was satisfied with her result, but her main interest was in the sixth group’s performance,
which was about to take place.
If they used the same composition as her, they would be heavily criticized by the emotional
netizens.
However, if they didn’t use her composition, they would not have enough time to come up with something good.
Sisily couldn’t help but whistle in excitement.
She was determined to make Ziana fall from her pedestal on the grand stage.
Just then, Vivi’s voice sounded, “Alright, let’s invite the sixth group to perform!”

“Step down quickly! You stole someone else’s song and have the nerve to perform it? Where’s your sense of honour?!!”
“Ziana! Withdraw! Ziana! Withdraw!”
“How shameless can one be to continue using stolen songs to compete? Ahh! I’m so angry I want to
bite someone!”
“Is the production team dead? You’re not even doing anything about this? I think your show is
doomed sooner or later!”
“Ziana pleases sugar daddy, pretends to be rich, creates a false image, and steals other people’s work! B*tch, is there anything you can’t do?!”
”
Almost at the same time, Vivi finished announcing, the public chat exploded with ridicule and
sarcasm.
Sisily took advantage of being the first to speak, and now public opinion was all in her favor. Eight out of ten people were criticizing Ziana.
Ziana’s loyal fans had been trying to argue logically, but soon they were overwhelmed by the angry netizens and had no way to fight back.
The bullet screen was already in chaos.
Suddenly, all the spotlights on the live screen went out in an instant.
People were about to increase their criticism, but when they heard the prelude of the music that started playing, they were all stunned.
What’s going on?
If they remembered correctly, this group’s song was Dangerous Heartbeat?
Didn’t Ziana steal the composition from Sisily’s group?
Then why the prelude sounded so different?
Most importantly, this version of the arrangement felt so advanced just by listening to it!
The melodious flute started playing, adding a hint of ambiguity to the atmosphere of the entire song.
But soon, the guitar joined in, with a simple yet concise melody, seamlessly connecting with the beginning of the original song.
Just as the first drumbeat echoed, Nina’s explosive and penetrating voice sang the first line!
The entire audience was instantly ignited!
The spotlight also turned on in an instant!
The spotlight shone on the nine women, with each beam of light hitting each woman’s body.
Each woman had a simple yet s*xy style that perfectly matched the song.
As the lively melody continued, several people sang and danced, and the entire stage was filled with energy!
This choreography was already impressive when Ziana danced it alone, but now that nine people are dancing together, it’s far more stunning than before.
Everyone was stunned, even the barrage was forgotten, and everyone’s eyes were fixed on the screen, afraid of missing even a second!
After Nina finished singing, there was a long section of Western-style rap.
The Sisily group did not make any changes, but Ziana’s group added guitar and piano harmonies.
Although it was still a simple melody without too much technicality, combined with Susan’s h**rse voice, the song became more ambiguous.
“Dangerous Heartbeat” originally told the story of a game of trial and error between a male and a female sea king, and now the dance has become s**y.
Several slender women made a series of provocative moves, but each had a cold and glamorous expression that didn’t make people feel vulgar!
Instead… it was alluring!
“D*mn it, kill me! There women are so s**y, d*mn!”
“Sisters, look at me! Wah, I love you so much!”
“Cuteness is nothing compared to s*xiness! I have to say, Sisily’s dance is completely defeated by this group!”
“Can you be more objective? It’s not just about dancing! Just this arrangement alone is a complete
victory!”
“Is this what Sisily said about someone plagiarizing her composition? Are you kidding me? Clearly,
these are two completely different songs!”
“Why does this arrangement use so many mixed instruments, and why does it sound so much like Nightfall, who has been missing for three years?”

During the online discussion, Susan’s rap part ended, and it was about to enter the high-pitched
chorus.
Anyone who has been following the live broadcast knows that the chorus of the sixth group’s performance has the first line sung by Ziana!
Even before Ziana began to sing, fans were already worried.
“LOL, will Ziana sing off-key today?”
“When Ziana starts to sing, everyone, both good and bad singers, will be silent.”
“It is well known that although Ziana sings off-key, she loves to sing! Shh! She’s about to sing!”
“What should I do? I’m a little scared for no reason.”
”
”
On the stage, the high-definition camera switched to Ziana.
At this moment, she did a brief and charming wink, and then began to sing steadily.
She has good natural singing abilities, and after practicing this line for more than a hundred times, she easily completed it without singing off-key or forgetting the lyrics.
She didn’t get out of tune!
And didn’t forget her words!
The audience was shocked for a long time. She performed exceptionally well!
After another hot and sp*cy dance, the performance finally ended perfectly!
Susan led everyone to bow and thank the audience. For a while, the whole performance hall was
silent.
Then, the audience came back to their senses and applause erupted enthusiastically!
Awesome!
Amazing!
It was unexpected to see such high-quality music composition and choreography on such an entertainment-based stage!
What’s even more remarkable is that the members of the sixth group, who had poor foundations to begin with, didn’t make any mistakes and challenged themselves during this performance! Chapter 69 Fortunately I Have Evidence
Although they didn’t improve rapidly, they all did an admirable job!
The final combined score for the sixth group happened to be exactly the same as Sisily’s group, tying for second place!
This reminded netizens that the issue of plagiarism in music composition is not yet over. However, this time they were not blaming Ziana, but aiming Sisily.
“Miss Liam, come out and explain! You said the sixth group stole your composition? Ha ha, did they really need to steal it?”
“Sisily’s composition is indeed good, but the sixth group is even better. They didn’t need to steal anything, did they?”
“Who is lying, anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance! Miss Liam is so shameless!”
“Miss Liam took the lead in slandering people. Awesome. Shameless!”
”
Sisily, who was backstage, had just seen the performance of the sixth group, and by now, she was grinding her teeth with hatred.
“How is this possible?
“They couldn’t possibly have come up with a new song in such a short amount of time!
“It’s obviously impossible!
“But why do the most impossible things always happen?!”
She tightly held her phone in her hand and kept receiving new Instagram notifications. She absentmindedly glanced at them and saw a string of insults.
Sisily finally realized and felt fear in his heart.
She was in trouble.
She wouldn’t be able to explain the plagiarism.
The online community believed that she had slandered Ziana, but Ziana’s group’s song was completely different from hers!
What was she going to do?
Sisily was frozen stiff, feeling like she was in an ice cave.
She couldn’t help but think about what Ziana had said about having evidence. Did Ziana really know
what she had done?
Sisily’s eyes widened in terror, and it was at that moment that Ziana’s face appeared on the big
screen.
Ziana was naturally beautiful, and the high definition camera magnified her beauty even more.
Ziana raised her eyebrows and smiled. “I’ve never encountered such an infuriating situation before. It’s really heart wrenching to have someone steal your work. But I don’t have any power or influence, so no one will believe me.”
She paused intentionally here, and her beautiful, narrow fox eyes scanned the entire audience before she sneered and spoke slowly.
“Fortunately, I have evidence, otherwise, I would not be able to return my innocence.”
Ziana let out a playful hum, then snapped her fingers towards the right front.
Suddenly, a surveillance video appeared on the big screen!
