Guan Yike didn't say anything, he just held his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Sheng Ziyou continued, "Everyone has to be responsible for what they have done. You sympathize with him, but you also have to think about it. If he succeeds, he will debut as the center, but what about Ji Ran? What about Feng Yuanxuan? What about Gu Yuzheng, Lin Yidong, and Jing Xianglei?"
If Jiao Xiu had succeeded, Feng Yuanxuan might have collapsed and withdrawn from the competition, while Ji Ran, Gu Yuzheng and others were also surrounded by negative news and their fans left them.
Even her own career, which was about to take off, encountered major crises and setbacks.
In between, there is only success and failure.
"Yike, do you know about Gu Yuzheng and Ji Ran's past?"
Guan Yike was slightly stunned, then looked up and looked at Sheng Ziyu.
"Although you didn't tell me what Jiao Xiu went through, but looking at his eagerness for quick success, I know that he must have owed foreign debts. With the marketing company fully supporting him behind the scenes, it is conceivable that he must have paid a huge price. If he fails this time, what he will face may be even more difficult, coupled with some other experiences, so you sympathize with him." Sheng Ziyu speculated, his voice affirmative.
Guan Yike pursed her lips. She didn't expect Sheng Ziyu to be so smart and be able to deduce so much useful information so quickly.
So, he didn't deny it and nodded: "Yeah, yes."
"But you don't know, Ji Ran and Gu Yuzheng's past experiences were not much better than Jiao Xiu's. Fu Jiahuan is not young anymore, if he doesn't make a debut, he might end up like Dou Xuan, with regrets. They all finally caught an opportunity, but were almost ruined by Jiao Xiu, and all their efforts were wasted." Sheng Ziyu patted him twice again, "If Jiao Xiu succeeds, who will stand up for the innocent Ji Ran and others?"
After she finished speaking, she paused and looked at Guan Yike.
He held his head in silence for a moment, then looked up: "I understand."
Sheng Ziyou smiled with satisfaction: "So, I always think that we don't need to pay too much attention to a person's background and experience. Happy people have one look, and miserable people have many faces. It's enough to care about the person. I don't hate Jiao Xiu for being scheming. If he competed seriously and didn't cause trouble, I would admire him. It's a pity that he cheated and framed, and his methods were too despicable. This is unforgivable."
“Okay…” Guan Yike nodded and agreed. He just felt overwhelmed with sympathy at the moment, so he felt sympathy for Jiao Xiu.
He stood up and smiled: "Thank you, Teacher Sheng, it was my fault."
Sheng Ziyou shook his head and smiled, "You are not possessed by a demon, you are kind. Jiao Xiu has already taken responsibility for his mistakes. Now everyone on the Internet knows what he has done, and they boycott and scold him for it. If you want to stand up when others laugh at him, that's fine, because your kindness is not just because he is Jiao Xiu."
Guan Yike looked into Sheng Ziyu's eyes and realized for the first time that the other party actually understood him so well and could see him so clearly.
He didn't say anything when the mistakes Jiao Xiu made were made public online. He didn't say anything when Ji Ran and others gave Jiao Xiu the cold shoulder. He still didn't say anything when Jiao Xiu's ranking dropped and he couldn't make his debut.
However, when Hu Changming made such insults that hurt people's self-esteem, he would stand up and stop him.
This has nothing to do with Jiao Xiu or his character, he just couldn't stand it. If someone else was subjected to this kind of "verbal violence", he would also stand up.
Therefore, he doesn't need to worry about what he should do. He just needs to do what he wants in his heart!
He would not help Jiao Xiu, nor would he stand idly by while others humiliated him.
Guan Yike smiled brightly and tugged at the corner of Sheng Ziyu's clothes: "Teacher Sheng, why are you so nice? What should I do? I like you so much."
Sheng Ziyou gave him two words: "Chatterbox."
Guan Yike grinned and said, "Seriously, after this show is over, can I pursue you?"
He blinked his big eyes with a sincere look on his face.
He really thinks that people like Sheng Ziyu are great and attractive, and he really likes her.
If she nodded at this time, Guan Yike would definitely take her seriously.
Unfortunately, Sheng Ziyou kicked him and said helplessly: "Get out of here now, or I'll beat you up."
Guan Yike jumped away, laughing and wanting to run out, but when he was outside, he stopped.
Sheng Ziyu was slightly surprised when he saw this scene. Is there someone outside
She was about to go forward to see who it was when she heard the man say, "Yike, go eat first. I want to talk to Teacher Sheng."
It’s Jiao Xiu.
Sheng Ziyou stopped and listened to Guan Yike warning Jiao Xiu: "Don't set your sights on Teacher Sheng, or I won't let you go!"
Jiao Xiu smiled: "Don't worry, I still want to live well."
He shook his head, walked over, and appeared in front of Sheng Ziyu with a box of packed food in his hand.
Guan Yike looked at his back, feeling somewhat worried, and did not walk far. He was in a position where he could not hear the two people's conversation, but if Jiao Xiu suddenly made a move, he would be able to find it.
Then he pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
Jiao Xiuzhen just wanted to say a few words to Sheng Ziyu, so he walked over. He walked lightly, and after the fake smile faded from his face, there was a hint of cruelty and calmness in his indifference.
"What's the matter?" Sheng Ziyu put away his fake smile and asked calmly.
Jiao Xiu looked at her and suddenly forced a smile: "I lost, Sheng Ziyou, I really can't beat you. I took it for granted before and hoped to succeed in one go."
Sheng Ziyu didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.
Jiao Xiu walked closer and said firmly, "But if I had to do it again, I would still do it. I don't regret it. But... I won't challenge you again."
This is his personality. Either he reaches the top with glory or falls into the mud.
As long as there is hope of debuting as the center, he will definitely give it a try.
"Sheng Ziyu, why did you help Ji Ran and the others? In this class, you helped Lin Yidonggang, Jing Xianglei, Fu Jiahuan, Feng Yuanxuan, Lu He, and then Ji Ran and Gu Yuzheng. I remember them all." He was much taller than Sheng Ziyu, and when he approached her, he had to lower his head to look her in the eyes.
But Sheng Ziyou, who was shorter than him, looked at him with no less aura: "Maybe I still have a little bit of passion in my heart. People are different. They are pure and kind, and I still have a little passion in my heart. You have schemed to achieve your goal. People are different."
Jiao Xiu smiled and looked at her with complicated eyes: "I can't be kind, I can't do it in this life. Now I fall down, but it doesn't mean I can't stand up again in the future, Sheng Ziyu, one day I will come to you again. At that time, Jiao Xiu will be stronger than now."
Sheng Ziyu did not respond, because Sheng Ziyu at that time would only be more powerful than now.
So, she was not afraid of him.
Jiao Xiu moved closer, closed his eyes slightly, sniffed the fragrance of Sheng Ziyu, and then whispered: "If I had come up by my own strength at that time, would you have looked at me straight in the eye?"
Sheng Ziyou curled the corners of his mouth and said simply: "No."
What had been done was done. Jiao Xiu had harmed her, and she had also harmed Jiao Xiu. Now they were even and had no further connection. There was no question of whether she looked at Jiao Xiu in the eye.
Hearing this, Jiao Xiu laughed at himself, shook his head, and turned around: "I understand."
Sheng Ziyu said nothing and walked out after him, each going about their own business.
Saturday is the last performance and the final battle of the men’s group audition.
Today, Sheng Ziyou and other four mentors are the judges. Each of them has one vote, which is equivalent to 20,000 votes, which is of great importance.
That afternoon, Sheng Ziyu brought Yang Yun and Ivy to the performance venue. This time it was another stage, which was bigger and more exquisite.
She was wearing a deep blue dress today, with her hair tied up, revealing her fair shoulders. The necklace, earrings and rings on her neck formed a complete set of jewelry, which was luxurious and exquisite.
Of course, these were rented by Zhao Jing. It was not completely unaffordable for Sheng Ziyu to buy these jewellery, but there was no need to spend all her family savings to buy a set of jewellery.
Therefore, it was enough to let Zhao Jing rent a suitable set of jewelry.
When Sheng Ziyu appeared backstage, it was definitely a stunning appearance.
She was also stunning in her last performance, but that kind of stunningness was more like a beautiful fairy, unlike today, with her grand and dignified beauty.
If she looked like a beautiful little princess last time, this time she looked like a noble queen.
Completely different types, but equally beautiful.
"Ah—Teacher Sheng!"
"Teacher Sheng is so beautiful!"
"I also think that Teacher Sheng is truly the most beautiful person I have ever seen."
"I always think that Ms. Sheng dresses up very beautifully, and the next time I find that she can be even more beautiful! It's really amazing!"
…
Qu Feng's eyes lit up as well, but he was sitting on the sidelines and couldn't come forward. He could only smile and say, "Ziyou, you look so beautiful today!"
Ran Youqing added: "Yes, she is beautiful every day, hahaha."
Sheng Ziyu was not modest either. He smiled calmly and accepted the praise.
After this performance, the entire show will be over, and she is about to officially embark on her own acting career.
Therefore, she would want to leave a deep impression on the audience. She is so beautiful that she must not let the audience define her beauty. She needs to be changeable and malleable.
The audience will remember the heroic Sheng Ziyou in the practice room, the charming Sheng Ziyou in the last performance, and the dignified and noble Sheng Ziyou in this performance. It is the same yet different Sheng Ziyou.
Wen Shanshan stood nearby with a stiff smile.
She felt that Sheng Ziyou was just clashing with her! She had outshined him for three consecutive performances!
The key point is that the skirt she carefully selected today was instantly turned into pieces in front of Sheng Ziyu.
Wen Shanshan really felt a little disgusted and stamped her feet in anger.
Fortunately, she has learned to find joy in adversity now. At least she is wearing high heels today, so she won't lose face or lose the battle.
After everyone turned off the microphone, the assistant director said—
"It's about to start, everyone check yourselves again."
The audience in front were already preparing to enter, and the makeup artist was holding tools, carefully checking whether there were any problems with the students' makeup.
The staff kept talking about the arrangements. Sheng Ziyu, Qu Feng and others were relatively okay, standing aside and waiting quietly, but the trainees were extremely panicked.
"Oh my god, I'm nervous." Fu Jiahuan wiped the sweat off his face, his body trembling a little.
This is the last performance. Whether we can advance depends on the results after this performance.
Moreover, the online votes have been reset and the voting channel has not yet been opened, which means that everyone is starting from scratch and everyone has the opportunity to debut.
Therefore, even the top-ranked students are not at ease, but instead worry about whether they can advance or not
Will my fans be too busy to vote? Are my votes accumulated by my fans, but I don’t have the short-term explosive power
It was this unknown and anxious state that made Fu Jiahuan tremble with nervousness.
Before Sheng Ziyou could say anything, Ji Ran said with a pale face: "Put on some makeup quickly. I told you not to wipe your sweat, or it will mess up your makeup!"
Ji Ran's voice sounded worried and anxious. He was anxious to find a makeup artist to help Fu Jiahuan touch up her makeup.
Gu Yuzheng held him, took a deep breath, and then said, "Ji Ran, you are too nervous, relax."
Ji Ran was stunned for a moment, then he stood firmly on his feet and took a deep breath to steady his breathing.
This was the final performance stage, and there was no subsequent live performance, which put a lot of pressure on every student.
Some people would tremble when under high pressure, some would sweat nervously, but it was obvious that Ji Ran was constantly worried about his teammates and paced around anxiously.
Jiao Xiu was probably the only one in the crowd who was eerily calm. He stood quietly aside, while everyone else was holding tissues and wiping their sweat.
The temperature backstage was not cold at the moment, but it was far from enough to make the students sweat profusely. They were just simply nervous.
Sheng Ziyou took a deep breath and frowned: "Everyone be quiet!"
Suddenly, no one spoke and everyone looked over.
Sheng Ziyu glanced at everyone, with a sharp look on his face: "Are you going to go on stage in this state? Are you really willing to present yourselves like this to the audience? There are still countless fans who love you in front of the screen."
No one spoke, everyone looked at Sheng Ziyu, but for some reason, the heartbeat that covered their ears seemed to disappear.
Sheng Ziyou continued, "Isn't it just a performance? You've performed so many times, are you afraid of the last one?! Isn't it just a live broadcast? Let me ask you, besides the real-time voting, what else does the live broadcast have?"
The students still didn't dare to respond. They all stared at Sheng Ziyu, but their expressions were a little relaxed.
Ji Ran didn’t know how other people felt, but he did calm down miraculously, and his restless heart finally settled down.
"If you make your debut, there will be many big events in the future. This dance is the best you have practiced. What are you afraid of? Just go for it!" Sheng Ziyu clapped his hands, "Come on."
"Come on!" With a shout from everyone, the panic on everyone's faces lessened and they regained some composure.
It's impossible to say that I'm not nervous at all, but at least I'm no longer at a loss as to what to do.
Ran Youqing gave Sheng Ziyu a thumbs up and said, "Well done."
Sheng Ziyu turned her head, nodded to him and smiled.
At this time, Qu Feng leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Youbao, I didn't realize you had the potential to do pyramid selling."
Sheng Ziyou looked at him with an unchanged expression and said calmly, "Then do you want to develop your career with me?"
Qu Feng: “…”
At the main entrance of the performance studio, the audience is entering in an orderly manner.
Lu Jiangyuan followed the crowd and walked to a corner, where someone was distributing support items for Ziyou.
As he approached, he could hear the fans around him chattering and talking—
"Why is it so generous this time?"
"Oh my god, these things are too expensive!"
"Yes, last time it was just a small banner, but this time everyone will get a banner, a cheering card, and random cheering lights!"
"Oh my god, Mimi, why is there such a big headlight here? It's too big! It must be very expensive!"
"Yeah, it's definitely expensive."
…
A girl in a black down jacket who was handing out support items looked up and replied with a smile, "These were all bought with the money from Big Boss Lu You. He sponsored us with a lot of money before, and we used half of it and returned the rest to him."
"Is that the local tyrant Lu You?"
"Who is Lu You?"
"You don't even know Lu You!!!" someone exclaimed.
This Lu You has been quite famous among the "youzus" recently. Idols usually don't accept gifts, so when they are at events, they ask willing fans to voluntarily sponsor some money to buy support items.
That day, the group owner "Youbao's Mimi" talked about this in the group, and group member Lu You directly said that he was fully responsible.
Everyone in the group was stunned at the time, but no one was willing to do it. It wasn't a big deal, so why would one person have to pay all the money? One or two dollars per person wouldn't be a big expense. If one person gave it all, the money would be quite a bit.
The group leader sent a private message to Lu You. I don't know what he said. When he came back, he said that Lu You was a rich man and this amount of money didn't matter to him. But of course he didn't give it all to himself. This was also the intention of other Youzi, so the unused money was returned to Lu You.
Lu Jiangyuan heard them chatting and turned away.
The group leader "Youbao's Mimi" knew that he was Lu You. She had seen him at the last performance. This time, Lu Jiangyuan didn't really want to appear in front of her.
He didn't know that just after he left, his cousin also ran over with her friends.
"Ah, Mimi, give me a big light sign!!"
The group leader smiled and teased her: "Can you hold it?"
"I can afford it! I bought a front row ticket. This time I'm holding the big light sign. I don't believe that Youbao can't see me!" Chen Yingjia clenched his fist, "I'm willing to be crushed to death for my idol to see me!"
The group leader smiled and gave the second largest light board to Chen Yingjia. It was very luxurious, so it had some weight.
For the biggest one, they found ten fans with consecutive numbers, and then let those ten fans with consecutive numbers hold it.
In fact, "Youbao's Mimi" distributes things in an orderly manner. They can't just give the light sign to anyone who asks for it. One reason is that these expensive light signs have to be collected back for next use, and the other is that people who wanted them but didn't get them will have complaints.
Like Chen Yingjia, although she is not an old fan, she has attended all of Youbao’s activities and is very active in voting.
During this sponsorship, she was the one who gave the most money besides Lu You, so it was more than enough for her to buy this light board.
Therefore, no other fans had any objections and watched her and another girl struggling to enter holding the big light sign.
"Huh?" Chen Yingjia was stunned and stood on tiptoe to look, but there was still a crowd of people in front and he did not see the familiar figure.
"What's wrong?" The friend next to me was panting heavily with exhaustion, but still insisted on holding the light board.
"I seem to see my cousin again. I seemed to see him last time..."
"Where is it?"
Chen Yingjia shook her head: "I didn't see it. I must have seen it wrongly. My cousin would only come to a place like this if he was crazy..."
She shook her head, suspecting that she was too tired and that was why she saw it wrong.
"Come on, let's go in quickly."
The cousin that Chen Yingjia said "only crazy people would come here" sat in the front. This time the studio was different from the previous one. It was very big and there were more audiences than before.
This time, the person next to him was not the group leader and her boyfriend, but a fan of Ji Ran.
Lu Jiangyuan glanced at the "Ranran" sign with some displeasure, as if looking at Ji Ran through the sign.
Then when the lights dimmed, he took out the banner and hairpin.
He didn't go to pick it up today, so he can only use the ones he didn't want to throw away last time.
The two words "Youbao" standing on the hairpin were still lit. He specially changed the batteries to maintain the brightness. The bracelet was exactly the same as before, without any damage.
He looked at Sheng Ziyu on the small banner and smiled.
Then Lu Jiangyuan slowly stretched out his hand and put the two words on his head.
At this time, the stage lights came on, and the whole place was filled with sound—
"The men's team selection finals officially begins!"
The author has something to say: The finals have begun, hehehe.
Bet on it! Those who guessed the entire debut list correctly will receive a big red envelope!
Come on, guess the prizes!
(By the way, Bunny wishes everyone a happy Christmas Eve, and may you always be happy, peaceful and joyful)
