The room fell into a stunned silence at Si Fuqing's declaration.
Xie Yu paused in his steps, and Shi Yu along with the other two trainees looked over in shock.
"Te... Te... Te... Teacher Si... you're joking, right?" Xu Xiyun stuttered. "You're a mentor! How can a mentor join the trainees' performance?"
"Why not?" Si Fuqing held her bass, her demeanor relaxed and confident. "There's always someone trying to hinder your performance, so I might as well step in."
She casually strummed the strings again, her fox-like eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at him. "Why, do you think I can't do it?"
"No, no, of course not!" Xu Xiyun hurriedly replied. "I'm just worried they might start talking behind our backs."
"Don't worry, it won't just be me," Si Fuqing said with a smirk. "I'll find someone else for you. When I used to sing in bars, I met a drummer."
