Sheng Ziyou, who was always thick-skinned, touched his head awkwardly: “Um… Hello, Mr. Lu…”
Lu Jiangyuan said nothing and continued to walk down the stairs.
The leather shoes made a sound when they stepped on the ground, as if they were stepping on Sheng Ziyou’s heart. For a moment, she felt as if her heart had stopped beating.
“How much… did you hear?” Sheng Ziyou asked cautiously.
Lu Jiangyuan had already walked in front of her, stopped and looked at her: “I heard everything.”
Sheng Ziyou: “…”
Well, she had not yet realized her ambitions in this life, and she was about to return to hell…
“You said you are my lover?” Lu Jiangyuan frowned.
His frowning expression made Sheng Ziyou’s heart tighten. She had been begging for food at Lu Jiangyuan’s hands for two lifetimes, so she really didn’t dare to offend him too much.
“I……”
“Okay, I understand.” Lu Jiangyuan frowned and nodded.
Sheng Ziyou: “???” What did you understand???
“I’m sorry, I forgot you were my lover.”
“No, I…” Sheng Ziyou hurriedly explained.
Lu Jiangyuan interrupted her: “After the car accident, my previous memories are a little sporadic. So I’m sorry that I didn’t fulfill my obligations before.”
What obligations?
No matter how smart Sheng Ziyou was, she was left with a look of confusion.
After a moment, she forced a smile and said, “Boss Lu, I’m sorry. I just said that because I was angry with Zheng Jiaoqian.”
Lu Jiangyuan’s eyes dimmed slightly: “Are you angry? Because I didn’t think of you?”
Sheng Ziyou: “…” ???
How could she not know that Lu Jiangyuan still couldn’t understand what people were saying???
“I won’t do that again.” Lu Jiangyuan held Sheng Ziyou’s hand, staring at her quietly with his dark eyes.
His hands were very warm, forming a sharp contrast with Sheng Ziyou’s cold hands, which preferred grace to temperature. One was cold, the other was hot; one was big, the other was small; one was slender, the other was rough, and they were pressed together…
But Lu Jiangyuan said, “Your hands are too cold, wear something thicker.”
Sheng Ziyou was so scared that she pulled her hand back suddenly, her face full of horror.
Lu Jiangyuan and her???
Whether in the original world or in the present, it was like a bolt from the blue.
“I really lied to Zheng Jiaoqian! Mr. Lu, just ask the people around you and you will know!!”
Lu Jiangyuan looked at her, and his eyes… gradually showed a little… grievance?
Sheng Ziyou: “…”
“Really! Mr. Lu, we have nothing to do with each other!”
After saying that, Sheng Ziyou…fled in panic.
She was really irritated by Lu Jiangyuan in this world!
Sheng Ziyou ran away, and Lu Jiangyuan stood behind her, with her warmth still lingering on his palm.
It was cool, but hot.
A smile flashed across Lu Jiangyuan’s eyes, and after a moment, he whispered –
“It’s been too long.”
“Sister You?” Yang Yun was a little confused. Zheng Jiaoqian just walked by, and Sheng Ziyou hurried out a few minutes later. As soon as she came out, she took her and ran away, as if something was chasing them from behind.
Sheng Ziyou looked terrified, and it was rare for her to show an uneasy expression: “It’s really… a mess…”
“Huh?” Yang Yun was even more confused. “What happened? Did Zheng Jiaoqian say something?”
Sheng Ziyou shook his head and said, “What the hell.”
But…did the car accident really mess up Lu Jiangyuan’s memory?!
Yang Yun: “…” ???
“Let’s go, let’s go back. Don’t come to the company recently. Just stay in the production team.”
Yang Yun: “…”
Sister You…did she really see a ghost???
Yang Yun shuddered and followed Sheng Ziyou closely, trembling.
When the two returned to the crew, everyone was having fun.
The performance ended yesterday, and the new tasks had not been released yet, so everyone took advantage of this day to have fun.
“Teacher Sheng!” Sheng Ziyou was feeling confused when someone called her.
She turned her head and smiled: “Fu Jiahuan, Jing Xianglei, what do you want to talk to me about?”
Fu Jiahuan was a little embarrassed and dragged Jing Xianglei closer: “Well… we wanted to thank Teacher Sheng…”
After he finished speaking, the two boys stood up straight, bowed together, and said in unison: “Thank you, Teacher Sheng!”
Sheng Ziyou smiled with relief. These were two outstanding young men. She was about the same age as Fu Jiahuan now, but her world used to be much bigger than theirs. So she looked at them as outstanding juniors.
“It’s okay. I’m just doing what a mentor should do. You are excellent and should not be buried.”
The two of them looked a little touched, but they just said: “We will try our best!”
“Come on!” Sheng Ziyou smiled and left.
Fu Jiahuan and Jing Xianglei also turned and left, chatting as they walked.
“Actually, Teacher Sheng is really nice.”
“Yes, it turns out we misunderstood her.”
“It’s because Teacher Wen… Alas, Teacher Sheng has indeed been misunderstood by us.”
“It’s actually rare to find a mentor who is so dedicated to helping students.”
“Teacher Sheng is also very strong.”
“If I can stay this time, I will definitely thank Teacher Sheng!”
“Me too, I also want to thank Teacher Ran.”
“I hope we can all stay…”
“I hope so too.”
“Ji Ran, look at what the doctor said. If you continue to abuse your body, you will be ruined!” Gu Yuzheng helped Ji Ran sit on the bed.
His face was pale, but there was still some spirit in his eyes.
Lin Yidong followed behind with bags of medicine and test results. He nodded vigorously, looking scared: “Gastroscopy is so scary. Ji Ran, are you still feeling uncomfortable?”
“Not bad.” Ji Ran’s voice was weak.
“Fortunately, the doctor today was very nice. He knew that you couldn’t be hospitalized and didn’t ask you any questions.” Lin Yidong paused, gritted his teeth, and looked at him with his big eyes, “Ji Ran, do you want to withdraw from the competition? There is still a month left, and your body…”
Ji Ran shook his head without hesitation: “I won’t withdraw from the competition.”
Gu Yuzheng didn’t say anything. He already knew Ji Ran’s decision, so he never asked him.
The reason why the two could become such good friends was probably because both of them could only go all out. Their opportunities were rare, so once they seized them, they would never let go.
“Okay.” Lin Yidong said nothing more.
The more he got to know Gu Yuzheng and Ji Ran, the more powerful he thought they were, but he also felt more distressed for them.
Lin Yidong’s family was not wealthy, but he was participating in the show at this age and had a certain foundation, so it was evident his family background was not too bad.
But Ji Ran and Gu Yuzheng were not like that. Ji Ran used to be a live streamer, so logically he should be very rich, but when he came to the crew, he only had two pairs of slightly faded shoes.
Gu Yuzheng…Gu Yuzheng seemed to have had no family since childhood.
He supported himself until he grew up to this age, and was still so outstanding.
Lin Yidong was full of admiration for the two of them.
Of course, what he didn’t know was…it was precisely because there was only admiration and no disgust in his eyes that the two of them were able to open their hearts to him.
There were only so many people with good luck in this world, and the rest had to rely on themselves to earn a good life!
Lin Yidong heated a hot water bottle for Ji Ran, while Gu Yuzheng went to cook porridge. Ji Ran lay on the bed looking at the two of them with a slight smile on his lips.
These three people still looked like clean and innocent teenagers.
At 7pm the next day, guides, mentors and students all headed to the prepared cafeteria.
The students were chattering away, while Qu Feng and the instructors were standing in the front.
“Everyone, please don’t be polite today. All the food is ours, hahaha. Let’s celebrate the end of everyone’s performance!”
“Roar——” the students shouted excitedly.
Qu Feng continued: “Then let’s all sit down!”
“Sit here!”
“Sit here—”
The students began to compete for the mentors. Lin Yidong’s eyes lit up. Then he rushed over and grabbed Sheng Ziyou and ran away.
“Teacher Sheng!! Here, here!!!”
He dragged Sheng Ziyou to sit between himself and Gu Yuzheng, Ji Ran was next to Gu Yuzheng, and Feng Yuanxuan was on the other side of Lin Yidong.
The students around him started to make noises.
“Teacher Sheng! Teacher Sheng! Teacher Sheng!!”
Sheng Ziyou smiled helplessly.
Seeing that Sheng Ziyou was so popular and sat among the more popular students, Wen Shanshan’s face became a little gloomy.
The students who invited her were all less popular, which made Wen Shanshan a little unhappy.
Finally, at Hu Changming’s invitation, she sat next to him.
Ran Youqing was also invited by some students, but he walked over and sat next to Dou Xuan, chatting with him with a smile.
Xiang Yuan was dragged to their table by Guan Yike, and the four mentors sat around the students separately.
Qu Feng raised his glass and said, “First of all, congratulations on the end of our last performance. Our performance video will be broadcast tonight. Friday night at 8 o’clock is also our voting deadline. Whether you leave or stay, you must remember the days we were together!”
“Good–“
“Come on, let our mentors speak.” Qu Feng looked at Ran Youqing.
Ran Youqing stood up holding a water cup, with a complicated expression on his face: “One success is not a lifelong success, the students who stay must continue to work hard, and one failure is not a lifelong failure, the students who leave still have a brighter future, come on!”
“Come on–“
Sheng Ziyou noticed that Dou Xuan, who was next to Ran Youqing, had red eyes, and she sighed slightly in her heart.
It would be great if we could keep all the students who want to stay…
But… there are so many outstanding students, and we all want them to stay.
“Teacher Sheng!” Qu Feng greeted Sheng Ziyou with a smile.
Sheng Ziyou stood up, her expression relaxed with a light smile emerging: “I know it’s not easy for everyone, it’s okay, like Teacher Ran said, a temporary failure is not a failure. You are all young, you haven’t even reached a third of your life, don’t rush. All roads lead to Rome, if you fail here, try another direction you like.”
She took a breath and said, “Just like many years ago you didn’t know there would be a boy band program that would give you the opportunity to debut, maybe in a year or two, there will be countless opportunities waiting for you. The future is unpredictable, but as long as you work hard, the future is promising.”
“Great!!!” the students applauded.
After Sheng Ziyou sat down, the remaining two mentors continued to speak. Lin Yidong gently pushed Sheng Ziyou next to them.
She turned her head.
Lin Yidong’s eyes were red: “If I am eliminated, Teacher Sheng, I will always remember you. You are like my teacher and my sister. You are the person I love most in my life besides my family!”
Sheng Ziyou laughed and said, “Silly, how old are you, and you’re talking about a lifetime?”
“It’s all real!”
Sheng Ziyou looked helpless.
This little brat… was quite touching.
After the two mentors finished their speeches, the students ate and played at the same time.
“Perform! Perform! Bei Yifan, do it!!”
“Long Mu, come here!”
“Brother Huan!”
“Brother Huan, come one!”
“Why don’t you come on?”
“I’ll come when you come!”
….
A student stood up and said, “Come on!”
After they stood up, they wiped their mouths and went to the front to perform impromptu. They were all talented and bold students.
Especially the students who were ranked very low, they did not hesitate to laugh and joke with other students. The next week of waiting for the vote would be their last week here.
Sheng Ziyou didn’t eat much high-fat food and just kept drinking water.
Gu Yuzheng took a look and calmly filled Sheng Ziyou’s cup.
“Thank you.” Sheng Ziyou was a little surprised.
Gu Yuzheng just nodded, and after a moment, he moved the vegetable salad and fruits that were placed a little far away closer to her.
Sheng Ziyou took a sip of water and thought, although Gu Yuzheng is young, he is surprisingly calm when taking care of people.
He took care of Sheng Ziyou, but his attitude was natural and did not make Sheng Ziyou feel uncomfortable at all.
Although they were still being pointed at by countless cameras that night, none of the students felt restrained and they all had a great time.
Maybe after a week, the students who used to laugh and play with them would leave.
They were like straight lines that intersected briefly, especially the trainees who would debut and those who would fail, their lives may go in two completely different directions.
When the party ended, it was already past ten o’clock in the evening and the performance video had already been played.
Sheng Ziyou took out her cell phone and casually glanced at Weibo.
Suddenly she was stunned.
