"Oh! It's so late, hurry up and go to sleep after your shower." Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at her watch, grabbed her change of clothes and washbasin, and hurried away. Then she looked back and asked, "Su Jian, Fei Chen, aren't you going to shower?"

"Of course I'll wash it, it's so hot."

Lu Feichen rubbed his hair, looking every bit the sunny young man.

Ouyang Qingzi nodded and said quietly, "Yes, it's a bit hot."

He Ziling remained silent, but quickly picked up her tools and walked alone in the direction indicated by the staff.

The dormitory was empty in the blink of an eye, leaving only Su Jian and Lu Feichen, who was changing into slippers.

"Hey Su Jian." The sunny, masculine Lu Feichen took off his shoes, revealing surprisingly girly pink socks. "Aren't you going to take a shower?"

"Take a...bath?"

Su Jian murmured to herself, then suddenly jolted.

"Go—! Of course I'll go!!!"

……

"Ouch!!!"

His face was bruised and swollen, and he was drooling.

Lu Hanfei stumbled to his feet, staring in fear at the mysterious man wearing sunglasses in front of him.

"Who are you? Do you know who I am? I'm warning you! I am..."

Bang!

The bullet pierced through the hat on his head.

Lu Hanfei's eyes shifted down from his head, and he dared not utter another boastful word.

"Hero, spare my life! Hero, spare my life! You...you want money, right? How much do you need? I'll have someone transfer it to you right away. Please, sir, spare my life."

"Hero, spare my life!" The assistant beside him quickly knelt down and kowtowed as well.

"Did I say... I wanted money?" He pushed up his sunglasses.

Ye Xing put the pistol back in his pocket and patted his hand lightly.

"Baby~!" "My darling~"

The headlights of the extended Lincoln were obscured by its two massive bodies, creating a hazy effect.

Lu Hanfei stared in disbelief as he looked up and saw two muscular black men with headscarves and thick lips wearing free-spirited smiles walking up to him, rubbing their hands together in anticipation.

"W-What do you want?!" Sensing something was wrong, his expression changed and he took a step back. "I'll give you any amount of money you want, just don't hurt me!"

Bang!

The wallet he pulled out was pierced by a bullet and flew out, the banknotes inside flying everywhere, falling like rain.

Ye Xing sat gently on the hood of the car and calmly pushed up his sunglasses.

"I want to... take advantage of you."

Under the dark moonlight, the swaying trees were peaceful and harmonious.

"ah--!!!!!!"

The next second, a mournful cry, earth-shattering and deeply moving, soared straight into the sky as if summoned by the call of freedom.

……

"Did you guys see him? He's even more handsome than on TV!!"

"Yes, I really like Lu Hanfei, he's so handsome!"

"I feel that Mr. Wo Zian has a lot of charm, with a mature man's sense of humor and unique charisma."

"Yes, yes, I've seen videos of him playing the piano. He's a piano prince!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Hey, didn't we say there were guys among us? What about showering?"

"The production team should arrange it, right? Anyway, I haven't seen any boys yet..."

"Everyone keep a close eye on things, don't let that guy sneak in."

"I propose that everyone who comes in take off their clothes and show them to everyone!"

You can hear the girls chattering away, talking about their excitement at seeing the celebrity and their fear that the only boy might be watching them.

Of course, some were quite indifferent, going about their own business.

Because there were no cameras in the bathhouse or bathroom, Su Jian felt a great deal of disdain, contempt, and resentment as soon as she entered.

Of course, most people simply ignored it; it seemed no one thought they would make it to the end.

Passing the semi-finals? Ha! Just lucky!

But at this moment, as a "man", would Su Jian care about those looks?

Or rather... does she even have the mind to care about those looks?

"Cough cough..."

Two rosy clouds floated on her cheeks, and a headscarf was wrapped around her head.

Soaking in the warm water, Su Jian silently leaned against the corner, swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva before slowly opening her eyes.

"Wow……"

The stars are dazzling, a starry river.

The starry sky and moon seemed within reach, and the red flowers in the hall seemed to bloom just for me.

Unable to contain his excitement, Su Jian's eyes widened as if they were about to pop out, revealing a lewd grin.

Who is David Tao?

To die beneath a peony blossom is to die a romantic death!

Chapter 20. The Unexpected New Teacher

Su Jian slept soundly that night, even in her dreams she had a smile on her face and would occasionally let out a "simple" laugh, which attracted curious glances from Lu Feichen, who was playing games all night.

The camera continued recording even while they slept.

After a fast-forward through complete darkness, the hazy sunlight finally pierced the dim room through the window, but at this moment the camera showed that one person was missing from the five-person dormitory.

The post-production team added a big exclamation mark here: Where is one person?

The photographers, who woke up early in the morning, quickly got up after checking that there were scenes worth filming, and ran around the corridor with their cameras, searching for the missing person.

It's only around six o'clock now, which is still a good time for the contestants who filmed until late last night to get some sleep. Who would get up so early?

"Strange, where did they go...?"

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, the photographer searched around aimlessly, and then finally heard the faint sound of a guitar.

"Ok?"

Upon hearing the sound, she quickly steadied the machine and cautiously walked towards the source, as if she were spying.

The camera panned around the corner, revealing a simply dressed girl holding a guitar, awkwardly trying out new sheet music again and again, occasionally scratching her head.

"Hiss... why do I keep hitting other strings?"

Scratching his head, Su Jian sighed with a mixture of impatience and helplessness, then quickly spotted a figure ahead out of the corner of his eye.

"Huh?"

She looked up and suddenly saw the crew rushing in and pointing their cameras at her.

Is this... being filmed?

I thought I had finally found a secluded spot, but I was still spotted by the photographer.

She shrugged helplessly, unsure of how to proceed.

I always get distracted in front of the camera and can't concentrate on practicing the piano.

So after trying to play a few notes, Su Jian realized she was distracted and had no choice but to put the guitar aside.

Seeing that she had finished resting, the photographer quickly ran up to her.

"Su Jian, why are you up so early?"

"Is it early?" Su Jian paused for a moment, then said "uh".

In the past, she had to work long hours to support herself and her brother, who was in a vegetative state.

Later, whether in Thailand or back in China, he had to strictly follow Ye Xing's "instructions" regarding getting up and resting.

Six o'clock is roughly when Su Jian gets up, and she has gotten used to it over time.

"I usually get up around this time."

"These days, most people play on their phones for a while after waking up, right? Why are you practicing the piano here?" the photographer continued to ask, pointing the camera at himself.

"Because... my strength isn't enough." Su Jian spoke the truth. "Since I'm not as strong as others, I can only start early. As for why I came here... because I won't bother anyone here, and there are no... cough cough, no cameras."

During post-production, a photographer's sweaty, wry smile appeared on the screen.

"Then I won't disturb your piano practice."

"it is good……"

I breathed a sigh of relief as I watched the photographer leave, but a small camera had already been placed in the small room.

Su Jian felt helpless, but this was better than having someone constantly watching her from the sidelines, right?

My current skills are simply not good enough among the sixty people; my guitar playing and singing are both so-so.

In order to avoid being drowned, and in order to have a smooth debut and a long-lasting career, I need to earn money to pay off my debts and support my comatose younger brother.

Su Jian took a deep breath and once again focused intently on practicing the piano.

……

"Yawn... Hmm? Where's Su Jian?"
