Oh no!
Lin Ke instantly understood the reason for the awkward silence.
At first, because it was too noisy down there, he had said "Quiet."
Those commoners weren't quite bright, having barely any experience or perhaps this was their second time experiencing such a stage.
They had no idea what atmosphere was; the silence before a performance didn't mean the same silence during the performance.
Lin Ke hesitated whether to say something to break the ice, like "Now you can make noise."
But saying that would make him come off like some kind of tyrant.
Even most tyrants wouldn't forbid their subjects from making noise, because it's quite pointless.
If nothing else works... Lin Ke looked up.
If nothing else works, just ask the teacher to buff John a bit.
Let John just continue with his speech...
Lin Ke's thoughts only took a moment to settle.
Yeah, let John continue.
However, to his surprise, John over there wasn't panicking or feeling awkward.
