Chapter 10: The Cut
For two seconds, Shen Yichen believed it.
He heard Tang's voice come out of a hundred phones, bright and quick and laughing.
It said he would do anything for the vote, and something in Shen's chest went cold and tidy and certain.
There.
That was the whole man.
A smile with a price on it.
He had known it.
He had said it to Cheng Ping in a corridor, the day after the clip.
Then he heard the laugh, and he heard where it stopped.
It stopped on the wrong beat.
In the car, the laugh had gone on a little longer.
Tang had grinned at his own joke, and Shen had said no, and there had been a second line.
He knew it word for word, because he had been there, and had replayed it more than once, lying awake.
He looked at Tang.
Tang stood in the middle of the stage with the microphone hanging from his hand and his face wiped entirely clean.
There was no smile.
There was nothing at all.
He looked stunned.
Shen stood up.
He had never in his life spoken to a crowd without a script.
His legs did it without consulting him.
