She Outshines 337
When the storm was about to arrive, everything was calm.
Under the guidance of the troupe teacher, Josie was happy and worked hard at practicing singing
every day. As usual, the entire family took great care of her, encouraging her to pursue her dreams.
At the same time, Paityn apanied her mother–inw and husband to host different people for
dinner every day.
On the first night, the three of them invited the director of Valemont City TV Station, the producer,
and the executive director of “Star Quest.” They presented each of them with a bottle of National
Cer 1573.
Saanvi and her son did not mention anything about Lori. They onlymented that the “Star
Quest” was a very professional show and were happy to cooperate with Valemont City TV Station.
Westin said he could break his principle of not participating in variety shows and dedicate his “first
time” to Valemont City TV Station. He also mentioned that he might consider being a judge with his
wife for the next season’s talent show.
The station head was delighted when he heard this. He kept exchanging toasts with Westin, wishing
both sides a sessful partnership.
The next night, the three of them invited the other four professional judges of the show and gave
each of them two bottles of 1985 Lafite.
Saanvi and her son also exchanged iMessages with them, saying that if the family ever needed any
help in the future, they should feel free to reach out.
The family invited media representatives to dinner on the third, fourth, and fifth days. Each of them
received a Hermès as a gift.
Because there were many media representatives from different fields and regions, some of whom
represented only themselves, not everyone was willing to cooperate with the family.
Therefore, the family only managed to invite more than half of the media representatives for dinner.
As for the audience at the live event, they did not participate in the voting on the championship
night, so the family did not need to concern themselves with that.
Just like that, after the Pittman Family’s secret activities for five days, Friday arrived. The National
Finals of the Star Quest show began.
Because Josie and Lori entered the top ten directly, they need not participate in thepetition
that night.
Since Saanvi and her son were in Valemont City, they went to watch thepetition that night,
which caused another smallmotion.
They felt that victory was in their grasp and did not feel any pressure, so they watched leisurely.
Little did they know that Louis had seen their actions.
Valemont City was his family’s territory. Josie was participating in Valemont City’spetition. Mr.
Graham would definitely care about Josie’s performance.
That night, he informed Mr. Graham about the Pittman Family’s activities.
Matthew only said, “Tell the TV station if the show can’t be fair and just, then they shouldn’t bother
doing it anymore.”
That was all he needed to say.
Tue, No
When the higher–ups of Valemont City TV Station received such news, the pressure was too great.

After thepetition ended on Friday night, the staff avoided Paityn and secretly reminded the
professional judges and media representatives, “The impact of this episode is too great. There are
hundreds of millions of viewers watching. Please try your best to score objectively and not be
affected by other factors.”
This made the judges‘ hearts skip a beat. They started to get concerned that it could be that
someone had reported that they had received benefits from some contestants.
Yet, this was rtivelymon.
It could be that even the production team had received many benefits from epting contestants.
No matter what, the production team had already reminded them. They could only restrain
themselves and not go overboard.
The next day, at 7:30 p.m., the nationally focused and crowded Finals of “Star Quest” officially
began.
ording to tradition, the opening would be performed by a professional judge to liven up the
atmosphere.
This time, the opening performance guest was Paityn.
When the host announced Paityn’s name, the audience cheered. The ratings showed that the
program had reached an all- time high.
Amid the apuse of countless people, Paityn calmly walked onto the stage.
This time, she had not applied bold, borate makeup. Instead, she opted for a more natural look
with nude makeup.
She was not wearing anything extravagant either. Her hair was simply styled, with minimal jewelry,
and she wore a light pink vintage dress. Standing quietly on the stage, she bowed with a slightly
wistful look in her eyes.
It was not until the familiar music began that she spoke, “Hello, it’s me.”
The entire ce fell silent.
Everyone watched her, filled with skepticism.
It was Adele’s “Hello.”
It sounded beautiful.
But it was also a difficult song to sing.
The seemingly soothing song contained the explosive power of the universe. It was shocking and
had the power to make the entire world cry.
Paityn’s voice was ethereal, pure, and melodic, unlike Adele’s high–pitched, rich, and powerful
voice. Everyone wondered if Paityn could deliver a performance that would make the world weep.
Soon, some in the audience were in tears.
Her rendition differed from Adele’s, but she sang with her style and emotion. It was not the
overwhelming, explosive force that directly impacted the heart. Instead, it was like a voice from the
heavens–gentle, refreshing, and continuous.
When she finished, the apuse was deafening.
Many peoplemented: [The diva truly lives up to her title. Her voice is still there, her skills
unchanged, but the emotions in her singing have grown more reserved and profound.]
[I think no matter who wins the championship tonight, they will pale inparison to her singing]

Even Josie, who was standing backstage, could not help but p. Her eyes sparkled as she said,
“Wow, that was so beautiful. This is the first time I have ever seen someone sing like that…”
Lori walked over, raising her chin proudly. “She is my mother. She is much better than your
country bumpkin of a mother!”
Josie waved her fist angrily. “My mother is not old–fashioned! My mother is way kinder than yours!
You and your mother have hearts as dark as coal.”
Athena patted Josie’s head to stop her from continuing and then looked at Lori. “Josie’s mouth is
for singing. Is yours for arguing and insulting people?”

“If you want to insult someone so badly, go out on the street and be a loudmouth. You can say
whatever you
want.”
“You-” Lori was so enraged that her face contorted, and she was about to lose her temper.
Luckily, her assistant quickly pulled her back. “Miss, you are going on stage soon. Do not let others
mess with your emotions.”
Lori stamped her foot and pointed at Josie. “Just wait tonight, I will definitely beat you!”
The first round of thepetition was 7 out of 10.
Josie was scheduled to perform fourth.
Lori was scheduled to perform seventh.
Josie sang “Tibetan teau,” another difficult song.
Winning the championship on such arge stage was not enough for her to sing well. Her
performance had to be challenging, and she had to stand out to prove her strength.
Not only did Josie sing stable high and long notes, but she was also wearing Tibetan attire, singing
and dancing beautifully.
This allowed her to advance sessfully into the top four.
Lori was equally impressive.
She yed the piano while singing “I Will Survive,” and like Josie, she advanced to the top four with
high votes.
The audience marveled, “If she only sang well, she probably would have just made it into the top
seven, but her piano skills are also quite high–absolutely professional level.”
“Not only that, but her pronunciation of English was very urate. She didn’t miss a single word or
note. It was truly impressive.”
Subsequently, in the quarter–finals, both the street–dancing student and the professional acrobat
made it into the top four.
Next came the final round, which directly decided the champion, runner–up, and third ce. Each
contestant only had one opportunity to perform.
The rating system for “Winner’s Night” differed from previouspetitions.
In addition to canceling the live audience voting segment, they used a one–person–one–vote
method to directly count each contestant’s vote. The contestant with the highest number of votes
would be the champion, and so on.
Additionally, the votes of each professional lead judge were equivalent to 2 votes. With the 30 media
representatives‘ votes included, the maximum number of votes a contestant could receive was 40.
