CH 17

Hello guys. If you like this novel, then please support the author at jjwxc.

I'm so sleepy. I sacrificed my game time to release this chapter. 

On a side note, our ML is really the most ideal type of ML I could ever ask for. He is fucking MYSTERIOUS AND FUCKING DANGEROUS. But at the same time the most FUCKING CARING person ever!!! I repeat, the most caring person in this entire world!!! He only has a soft spot for his guy!!!

And then comes our MC. I have never met a single character as relatable as this one. While reading other novels, I always think of what I would have done if I was in that character's position. But while reading this, I always feel like this character is me myself. And no he is not a coward at all, he has just seen life from so near that he knows the consequences of his single-action clearly. He had lost his everything in his past life including himself, so now in this life, he wants nothing more than a life. Yeah, not a perfect or even a good life. He just wants to live....that's all! 

...................................................

When the rest of class A contestants started to come back one after another, Jian Xingsui went back to the dormitory to call.

Shen Xingchen slept for more than two and a half hours. After seeing the time, he glanced at Jian Xingsui: "Why didn't the alarm clock sound?"

"They just got up, you still have time." Jian Xingsui brought him water: "You've been practicing for a whole day. Not sleeping much.....are you trying to know what it feels like to faint in front of the mentors?"

Shen Xingchen took a sip of water and looked at him, and said strangely, "Why are you so lucky? You just woke up at the same time when they woke up."

Jian Xingsui smiled and said nothing.

Shen Xingchen continued to drink two sips of water and suddenly stopped drinking. He seemed to have suddenly reacted. He slowly put down the hand holding the water glass and stared at Jian Xingsui with his dark eyes. He then asked: "You didn't sleep?"

Jian Xingsui said quickly, "I fell asleep. I really fell asleep."

Shen Xingchen couldn't believe it: "Why is your bed still neat?"

"I practiced for a while in the training room." Jian Xingsui looked at the watch on the wall: "It seems that it is five o'clock now. You go to training hall first, I will sleep for a while."

Shen Xingchen guessed that someone was going to perform in front of the mentors at this point, and asked him, "Aren't you going to compete?"

"I have no foundation in dancing. I only learned half of the movements yesterday, and now half of my limbs are also out of coordination. So I can't compete with others even if I don't sleep now."

Class A alone had five or six dancers. Even in Class B, there were also a few who studied dance all year round.

Jian Xingsui knew that he was definitely incompetent, so he never thought of overdoing it: "I just tried to practice in the training room, and found that my mind was muddy. I couldn't even remember the lyrics, so I'm going to sleep for a while. You hurry up and go to the training hall. I'll wait for your good news."

In the same dormitory were Ning Ze and Wen Shengge who had slept for a while at night. Both of them were from Class B. Wen Shengge and Ning Ze could also sing, but they both had some basic dance skills. So both of them got up now and went back to the training room with Shen Xingchen.

Shen Xingchen walked in the corridor when he went out, and sighed softly, "I don't know why, but after a good night's sleep, the lyrics are much clearer, and I don't even feel tired anymore."

Wen Shengge smiled softly: "Of course, you must rest. Without sleep, you'll be in difficulties."

Ning Ze had always been reluctant to talk, so he nodded: "Well, Jian Xingsui was right to persuade you."

"We actually wanted to persuade you too, but it was useless." Wen Shengge covered his lips: "Xing Sui had a nice way to persuade you."

Shen Xingchen sneered: "He persuaded me. But when I went to bed, he was practicing in the training room."

The group went to the training room of their respective classes. Shen Xingchen went to the hall and found that several other people were indeed there. The overall atmosphere of class A was not particularly harmonious. Even a small group was formed among the people who didn't know each other till yesterday. An Ran and Li Xu'an only met yesterday, and today they were calling each other ''true'' brothers. They were practicing in front of the mirror and when they saw Shen Xingchen come in, they didn't speak.

Shen Xingchen was too lazy to pay attention to them.

He looked into the mirror and followed the music himself. Yesterday morning, he had felt very tired, and the lyrics sometimes broke, but after sleeping for more than two hours, he seemed to have completely memorized it. And he wasn't tired at all, and his spirit was very good. After finishing it, Shen Xingchen looked at himself in the mirror and was glad that he went to sleep.

An Ran came over and said, "Brother Xingchen, you dance very well."

Shen Xingchen replied lightly. In fact, An Ran was very beautiful and delicate, and he always spoke softly and was also very good at doing things. In fact, he was the type that the Shen Xingchen liked. But he didn't know why Jian Xingsui was always trying to avoid An Ran. He even seemed a little afraid of him. That made Shen Xingchen always want to kick the intestine out of this An Ran. It was unknown why but this An Ran had become the definition of ''disgusting'' for Shen Xingchen from their first meeting.

An Ran smiled: "Did Xingsui return to the dormitory to rest?"

Shen Xingchen said, "En."

"Ohhh, I also think he should have gone back to the dormitory to sleep. What was he sleeping at the door for?" An Ran pouted: "He doesn't feel sorry for himself at all." (T/N: This An Ran really makes me feel....................)

Shen Xingchen's movements stopped, he looked sideways at An Ran in disbelief: "What did you just say?"

An Ran was taken aback by Shen Xingchen's sudden louder voice. After a long while, he hesitantly said, "I..... I didn't say anything. It was Xingsui who was sleeping at the door, and then when he saw me and brother Xu'an coming, he was gone."

......

Shen Xingchen lowered his head. It was unknown what he was thinking.

An Ran wondered: "Brother Xingchen, what's wrong with you?"

When Shen Xingchen raised his head again, his eyes were a little red. Big Brother, who had always been ready to throw people to the drainage was actually a little bit defensive here. Thinking of that buzz head idiot, his nose was sore. He held back the urge to go back to the dormitory and cursed lowly.

An Ran was still wondering when he saw Shen Xingchen walking outside: "Brother, where are you going?"

Shen Xingchen didn't turn his head back: "I'll go to the mentors to perform!"

At 5:41 in the morning, it was just dawn. The sun still hadn't risen from the horizon and there were very few viewers in the live broadcast room of "Starlight". But at this time, the first student knocked on the door of the mentor's room. Shen Xingchen walked in without the slightest hesitation. It took him far less than 24 hours of singing and dancing practice of the theme song to kick off.

......

At seven o'clock in the morning, Jian Xingsui was awakened from his sleep. In other words, he was forced to wake up.

There was a vicious man sitting beside his bed: "Get up, you fuck shit, you dirty scheming scoundrel...........are you kidding my fart? Still sleeping after acting like a fuckboy in front of Lao Zi? Wake up you asshole!!! The dormitory on this entire floor is empty. Everyone has gone to the training room. Are you still sleeping because you want to fight me?"

Probably the sleep time was close to being three hours. But Jian Xingsui, who was in two hours of light sleep, swayed and opened his eyes. After seeing Shen Xingchen, he quickly woke up and asked, "Xingchen, why are you here? ...have you performed?"

Shen Xingchen snorted. The young master raised his head proudly: "Who is this young master, what is there that Lao Zi can't pass?"

Jian Xingsui paused for a while, then smiled happily: "That's great.......then you are the center... Are you the center?"

Shen Xingchen: "What a pig head, you.... who else is it if it's not me?"

Jian Xingsui's smile grew even bigger. He had watched Shen Xingchen practice singing and dancing without sleep, watching him wet several T-shirts with sweat, watching him practice with sore muscles but still persevering. Now, his buddy has really got the center position. For some reason, Jian Xingsui couldn't help but feel his nose sour. He whispered: "It's really great. Congratulations, you got the center position. Big brother is so cool and handsome..."

The camera in the dormitory was on and many viewers also had woken up at this time. Some of them had also seen this scene by replaying the scenes they hadn't watched while they were still sleeping. Seeing this scene, they were inexplicably emotionally infected:

"Ah, ah, my family's children, I feel so distressed."

"Suichen is real!" (T/N: LOL NOOOOOO They are brothers....real brothers!!!)

"20,000 yuan Cinderella and the rich young master, I'll pay respects first."

"Don't mess around with CPs, okay? This is a pure brotherhood, hehe."

In the dormitory, Shen Xingchen saw Jian Xingsui's that appearance and he felt uncomfortable. He pulled Jian Xingsui and said, "What a bastard, get up for me and go to dance practice."

Jian Xingsui slowly got up: "I know."

When he returned to the training room, Shen Xingchen personally taught him dance and movements, but the young master was short-tempered. After teaching for a while, he became impatient and went to the cafeteria to eat, so Jian Xingsui practiced in the training room by himself. It happened that Wen Shengge and Ning Ze were all free, so they came over to continue teaching him. An Ran and Zhou Xun were also practicing on the other side of the training room.

While a group of people was practicing, the door of the training room was opened. It was unknown who had looked at the door first and shouted in surprise, "Brother Fu!"

Fu Jinxiao stood at the door. Today, he was wearing black casual sportswear, which was not so formal. His aura was relaxed, but the fact that he was standing there alone made the young trainees nervous.

A group of people spontaneously stood in a line and said obediently, "Hello, Mentor Fu!"

Fu Jinxiao responded lightly. He came over and half leaned against the wall of the training room, raising his eyebrows to look at everyone: "How is your practice going? One day has already passed."

All the trainees had different answers:

"It's almost done."

"I'm not very familiar with it yet."

"There are some places that don't work."

''I don't even know why I'm here in the first place.''

''Where am I?'' 

''Fuck, I want to go back to where my ancestors originated from. This place is scary. MOMMM!''

Of course, these were the things they could never say in front of their idol. They could only perfunctorily answer positively.

Fu Jinxiao said, "Well, come and show me."

It was definitely beneficial to be able to dance and be instructed in front of the master mentor. It was equivalent to taking an exam in advance. Everyone was very happy, and they went to take their positions spontaneously. When the music started, they also started to dance together. The person standing at the front was An Ran. He was the one who learned the fastest and danced the best in this group. He should have been praised. However, what was surprising was that when the dance was halfway through, the name which was in Fu Jinxiao's mouth still was: "Jian Xingsui, what are you doing?"

In the last row, Jian Xingsui, who couldn't keep up with the beat, was pitifully continuing his dance.

When everyone started dancing because the person behind was indeed a person who had no foundation in dancing at all and was incomparable with other people who had dance foundation, it caused Fu Jinxiao's knife-like eyes to keep falling on Jian Xingsui. After the music ended, Fu Jinxiao stood up. The air pressure in the room was freezing because of the actor's mood. However, instead of losing his temper, he smiled with his lips hooked. This smile made everyone's back cold: "Jian Xingsui."

Jian Xingsui weakly said, "Yes."

"How do you think you danced?"

"I couldn't keep up with the tempo."

"No, you weren't unable to keep up with the tempo." Fu Jinxiao's voice was elegant and gentle, but what he said was ironic: "You don't know what is tempo at all."

Everyone in the room looked at Jian Xingsui. Some were worried while some were looking for a great show.

Just when everyone thought Film Emperor Fu was going to get angry, he walked to the wall behind Jian Xingsui and said, "Without the background music, show me the movements from the beginning and I'll see."

Jian Xingsui was so scared that his legs had turned weak, but he didn't dare to disobey Fu Jinxiao's order. So he bit his teeth and started dancing.

Fu Jinxiao watched a bit and then opened his lips: "You are so weak that you can only move so softly?"

Jian Xingsui had no foundation in dancing. His movements were actually very big, but he couldn't feel the strength, which looked strange. He weakly said, "I don't know how to use my strength to control my movements."

Fu Jinxiao picked up a bottle of mineral water on the table next to him. He walked over and stretched out his hand. "Bang!" A loud noise resounded in the practice room. The man looked sideways at Jian Xingsui: "Come here and shake it."

Jian Xingsui hurried over and shook the water bottle.

Fu Jinxiao said, "Shaking hands like that, aren't you capable of doing even such kind of small movements?? The strength of your shaking arms is like others' strength while tickling people. Why? Are you still only going to sing a big show for us later?"

Jian Xingsui blushed when he was mercilessly lectured. He hurriedly said, "I see, I'll try again."

When Film emperor Fu spoke, no one dared to speak in the entire training room. The other trainees didn't even dare to move, all watching Jian Xingsui being trained alone.

Jian Xingsui tried a set of movements twice according to the method taught by Fu Jinxiao, and he actually felt a sense of strength.

Fu Jinxiao's brows and eyes loosened a lot, and he raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you able to control your strength now??"

Jian Xingsui could also dance this part before, but that dance looked very strange. Fu Jinxiao only taught him it two or three times. And in less than five minutes, when Jian Xingsui danced to this dance again, both visually and rhythmically, it was smoother and more beautiful.

Zhou Xun, who was not far away, leaned into An Ran's ear and said, "Jian Xingsui, this idiot, is so useless in front of Brother Fu. He is shaming himself to death. In the future, he will definitely not be liked by our dear Brother Fu."

Zhou Xun was being happy about his enemy's misfortune, but An Ran's face was a little dull. He said softly, "Ah xun, if you think so, you are wrong."

Zhou Xun was taken aback.

"If Brother Fu really doesn't like him, he won't point out his problems, and teach him personally." An Ran looked sideways: "When dancing just now, including me and you, and even others, there were problems to varying degrees, but you see who has caught Brother Fu's eyes and who is being taught from just beginning to now?"

Fu Jinxiao was indeed looking like he was angry, but anyone with eyes could see that it was the kind of anger that arise when you don't get something expected from your beloved person! Otherwise, other people were making mistakes too. Some of them had even greater problems with their movements than Jian Xingsui. Then why wasn't Fu Jinxiao angry with them?

It was because, since the beginning, the Film Emperor Fu only had his eyes on that single person. Other individuals had never entered his sight at all!

On the surface, he seemed to be fierce, but it was as if the parents were being fierce when they found out that their child was actually at the bottom of the exam, but they were still trying to teach their children after the fierceness.

In the whole training room, Jian Xingsui who was the most hated one was someone who was most liked and loved by...........one could guess by whom! It looked like the suffering one was Jian Xingsui, but the actual winner among all of them was none other than himself.

Fu Jinxiao's eyes were clearly saying: My goal isn't to give you the world through fake kindness, it's to conquer the world with you through my true self. That's the reason, I'm me, only when I'm with you.
