"I want Xue Xiao."
The final sound echoed and fell.
The entire studio was silent for a second.
Immediately afterwards, a chorus of screams almost reached the top of the head.
Xue Xiao was stunned. He was violently shaken by friends from all directions.
"Damn, Teacher Shen is awesome!"
"Teacher Shen is so handsome!"
"'I want Xue Xiao', damn, damn!"
"I'll tell you! I'll tell you that Teacher Shen can't help but laugh, so he's waiting here!"
The sound of the heartbeat almost drowned out everything else.
"Anyway, you don't hate me, and you have no reason to deliberately not choose me, so what I have to do is always the same."
When everyone left the studio, they were still discussing Shen Tingyan's reversal.
At the end of a certain corridor backstage, Shen Tingyan was talking to Fang Lei, who had been waiting for him backstage since arriving here in the afternoon.
Xue Xiao calmed down his breathing, walked over calmly, and said hello: "Brother Fang."
He shook his head quickly, but Shen Tingyan raised his eyebrows and said, "No? Then who was the one who was pouting so much that a teapot could hang on his lips just now?"
Amidst the noise, Xue Xiao saw the man looking towards him.
— Just work hard.
"It's okay," Shen Tingyan said to him with a low and gentle voice, "Come here."
This guy turned out to be mentally prepared for this.
Xue Xiao was extremely embarrassed to be ridiculed so frankly in front of his face.
Shen Tingyan said in a joking tone: "Xue Xiao, if I really didn't choose you, would you have cursed me to death in your heart by now?"
But no one knew at the time that what this man was holding was not a resurrection card at all, but a robbing card. How could Xue Xiao have expected that he would do such a thing later...
At that time, he really didn't want to explore the reason why Shen Tingyan didn't choose him.
The next second, he realized that this sentence definitely didn't mean what he thought, but the word "like" really meant...
*
Although fifteen students were eliminated and the program team didn't even give them a resurrection card, in the end, none of this seemed to matter.
"..." This is difficult to refute.
Exciting, really exciting!
Xue Xiao did not go with the large army.
Xue Xiao spoke seriously, and Shen Tingyan's eyes darkened slightly.
Even if he really didn't choose him, this little light bulb was still ready to charge towards him again.
Shen Tingyan suddenly didn't know how to describe the feeling in his heart at this moment.
He looked at Shen Tingyan suspiciously.
Xue Xiao pursed her lips and said frankly: "I must be a little disappointed...but Teacher Shen, you have no obligation to choose me."
He will keep working hard until the moment this man can no longer take his eyes away from him.
His voice was hoarse when he said this, and Fang Lei, who was smiling with the mentality of watching a drama, suddenly felt a thump in his heart.
Fang Lei nodded to him kindly and joked: "You two stole the show today, how do you feel? Did you really think that Tingyan wouldn't steal you?"
Of course, he could only hide these words quietly in his heart.
As soon as the recording ended, he impulsively ran backstage to find Shen Tingyan.
When the two of them stopped talking and looked at him, Xue Xiao came back to his senses and said: "Ah, I'm sorry, I-"
If he can go to Shen Tingyan's team, he will work hard. If he can't go, he still has to work hard.
Xue Xiao suddenly blushed: "...I didn't pout!"
"real?"
"No way!" Xue Xiao blushed and retorted softly, "...Actually, I didn't care about it that much just now."
"Oh, who's that one whose head is almost hanging to the ground?"
He twitched the corners of his lips and said, "Xue Xiao, everyone knows that I like you."
He said seriously: "I originally thought, Teacher Shen, if you don't choose me now, then I will continue to work hard in the next round and make you want to choose me again."
Xue Xiao swallowed and suddenly felt a burning sensation all over his body.
It turns out that Shen Tingyan had been paying attention to him just now!
Xue Xiao was stunned.
Xue Xiao found the two of them, took a breath, and shouted without thinking: "Teacher Shen!"
Xue Xiao would never blame Shen Tingyan for this kind of thing.
He touched his forehead in a covert manner, lowered his head, his heart was beating rapidly, and he stammered: "Well... thank you, thank you..."
Shen Tingyan looked down at him, his whole body turning crimson.
If he had seen Xue Xiao's reaction before, he would have been sure that it was a sign of liking.
But now...
He smiled to himself.
But even so, I still can't stop.
He said slowly: "Everyone knows that it is impossible for me not to choose you, so you can be more confident. Sooner or later, I will grab you."
Xue Xiao's fingers curled up: "Thank you, thank you Teacher Shen..."
Seeing how shy he was, Shen Tingyan chuckled and said, "Just a thank you card?"
Xue Xiao trembled and raised his eyes slightly with shame.
On the side, Fang Lei couldn't help but stand up straight, and his heart began to beat.
At this moment, someone passed by the corridor, and a female voice interrupted them: "Smile, Teacher Shen!"
Jiang Lianlian went to see Guan Ruoying just now, and the two had just separated. She was very happy tonight and said casually: "Xiaoxiao, why don't you go back to the dormitory?"
Xue Xiao said quickly: "It's almost time to go back. Just wait for me and let's go together!"
He turned around and noticed that the smile on Shen Tingyan's face had faded a lot.
Xue Xiao was stunned for a moment, then whispered: "Teacher Shen?"
Shen Tingyan came back to his senses.
Before the game started in the afternoon, what Zhang Chengyu said to him echoed in his mind.
"He told me yesterday that he has a girl he likes." "No, this guy just got the idea, and he didn't even change his horoscope."
"I guess it must be one of the girls on the show."
Shen Tingyan thought to himself that he had become such a person -
He stared at Xue Xiao, almost uncontrollably wanting to ask on the spot who the girl he liked was.
But he couldn't do such a thing, because it was strange and it wasn't like him.
It makes no sense to ask this kind of question.
Xue Xiao was a little stunned.
He didn't know if it was his imagination, but he always felt that Shen Tingyan had something to say to him, but after a moment, the man looked away.
A cold and somewhat heavy aura enveloped the man in front of him.
Xue Xiao was stunned.
Shen Tingyan... Are you actually a little unhappy tonight? Why
Xue Xiao was a little confused. He hesitated and stretched out his hand to tug at the corner of Shen Tingyan's clothes.
When the man looked at him again with an unreadable expression, he said: "Teacher Shen, I don't just have a thank you card, but I don't have a gift to give you now—"
Shen Tingyan twitched the corners of his lips: "I'm not asking you for a gift. Forget it, you should come back early—"
"Teacher Shen," Xue Xiao interrupted him. He pursed his lips, blushed, and said softly, "I want to say that I like you too. Everyone knows that I like you."
Shen Ting hesitated for a moment.
Xue Xiao was actually extremely worried, fearing that he would show any slight difference.
But good feelings should not only exist in the love between a man and a woman.
His love for Shen Tingyan is very complex, with a special love, and naturally there is also a more innocent love that was born in his heart very early.
What can't be said about this kind of love
He felt that Shen Tingyan was a little unhappy tonight, and he just wanted to make Shen Tingyan happy.
Although his liking may not necessarily have such a big effect on Shen Tingyan, even if it is just a little bit, he is willing to work hard to express it.
He plucked up the courage and said: "...Teacher Shen, I like you the most, really."
Shen Tingyan's eyes suddenly darkened, and Fang Lei started to take a deep breath.
After Xue Xiao finished speaking, he didn't know what to say.
He looked at Shen Tingyan's face eagerly, shook the corner of his clothes, and whispered: "Teacher Shen, be happy. I was really happy when you chose me today."
Shen Tingyan whispered: "You said you like me just to make me happy?"
"... I just want to make you happy, but I also mean it from my heart!"
Shen Tingyan looked at the young man in front of him looking at him shyly and worriedly, and suddenly laughed.
He let out a long breath, feeling that facing this guy, he really had no choice but to raise his hands and surrender.
He was still jealous in his heart, but he still felt happy to hear such a confession that he knew was not what he wanted.
Seeing him smiling, Xue Xiao finally smiled with relief.
On the other side, Jiang Lianlian was still waiting for him.
He said softly: "Teacher Shen, shall we meet tomorrow?"
Shen Tingyan looked at him deeply, raised his lips and said, "Yeah."
On the way back to the dressing room, Fang Lei kept hesitating.
Shen Tingyan didn't say anything. After entering, he sat down in his seat and the two of them waited for the driver to drive over.
Fang Lei lingered behind him for a moment. As soon as he opened his mouth, the door opened and he could only close it again.
Feng Wei said goodbye after greeting the people outside. He slowly walked in, saw Shen Tingyan, and said, "Congratulations, Teacher Shen, for grabbing a general."
He sat down next to Shen Tingyan, opened the tea cup and said, "There are five people in your group now, but there are only three people left in my group."
Fang Lei's teeth were sore when he heard this, and he felt strangely angry. This old fox was quite unhappy today.
Shen Tingyan was more straightforward than him and said directly: "Unhappy?"
Fengwei drank tea without changing his expression and did not respond.
Shen Tingyan lowered his head and swiped his phone and said, "If you keep him in your group, you will only use him as Cheng Yang's foil in the next round. By then you will be happy, but I will be very unhappy, so I can only Director Feng felt a little unhappy."
These words surprised Fang Lei.
Fengwei stopped and asked, "What do you mean, Teacher Shen?"
"Ask me?" Shen Tingyan said calmly, "After you gave up Fan Xue, you made up your mind to bet on Cheng Yang, right?"
Fang Lei in the corner covered his face as if shouting, Fan Xue? Is Fan Xue also related to Feng Wei? !
Wait, think about it carefully, Fan Xue had to have a certain degree of confidence when he dared to set up a counterattack character. His confidence came from Zhang Luyang's editing...
Fang Lei looked at the back of Feng Wei's head in shock—it must have come from the support of a certain mentor!
In the dressing room, Shen Tingyan's voice was calm.
"It's no longer interesting to continue to praise the students who are popular with the audience. You still have to be discerning. Uncovering new stars that no one has noticed by yourself can better reflect the power of your director Feng, isn't it?"
Fengwei glanced at him calmly.
"You can't interfere with the selection of students in this round of competition, and Cheng Yang doesn't have the ability to carry a group by himself, so you let Xue Xiao play the leading role, praise him, and lead the whole group. There is no loss at all. . But in the next round, the instructor can decide the role freely. Are you planning to let Xue Xiao act as the voice actor?"
Shen Tingyan laughed: "It's okay if I didn't see it before, but now that I've seen it, do you think I'll still ignore it?"
"Not to mention, you all know that I like him."
The dressing room suddenly became quiet and could hear the needle drop.
Fang Lei didn't even dare to take a breath. He just felt that the pressure increased sharply just by staying in this place. The aura of these two people was too strong.
Fengwei suddenly laughed too.
He did not deny what Shen Tingyan said, but asked instead: "Then you snatch Xue Xiao over and let him be the protagonist. If you are so partial to him, are you worthy of the other students in your group?"
"Teacher Shen, there are always protagonists and supporting roles in acting. You don't need to be told by others to understand this truth," Feng Wei lowered his head and screwed on the lid of the teacup, "Don't make it sound like everyone else is doing bad things, even if This is a competition and it cannot be fair to all students.”
Shen Tingyan said lazily: "It's true that bad things are not considered bad, but since they are already in my hands, why can't I give the five of them equal roles? After all, what I have to arrange is only a short ten minutes. drama, I can still do this level of fairness.”
Feng Wei was really surprised now: "When did Teacher Shen become such a model teacher who takes good care of students?"
"Today, I started to feel that it was worth it."
Shen Tingyan received a message from the driver that the car was already outside. He stood up and put one hand in his pocket.
Before walking away, he chuckled and said: "But after leaving this arena-"
"I prefer him as much as I want to."
The man's voice turned cold.
"-Don't let anyone come in front of me and tell me what to do."
