The rules for forming groups were still based on rankings.

The groups that had performances that were easier and looked better were already filled at the start of the formation.

By the time the members on the eliminated list had to choose their groups, there weren’t many slots left.

A few vocal groups still had a few slots left.

Xia Jinmeng’s group still had a slot.

The last group was Lin Shanchu’s group, which still had five empty slots.

It was Wen Tongtong’s turn.

A member who didn’t know what was going on shouted at Wen Tongtong, “Jinmeng’s group still has one more slot!” The commenters started discussing.

[Wen Tongtong will definitely choose Xia Jinmeng.]

[ I guess only the last five people will be forced to choose Lin Shanchu’s group.]

[I can’t wait to see members of rank one and the last five ranks screwing up the performance very badly! ]

Just when everyone thought that Wen Tongtong would choose Xia Jinmeng’s group…

She stopped in front of Lin Shanchu.

Lin Shanchu, who was formerly lazy, suddenly stood up straight and looked at Wen Tongtong with raised eyebrows. “Are you joining?

“Yes,” Wen Tongtong replied.

Lin Shanchu waved at her eagerly. “Hurry up.”

She was also a prideful person at the end of the day.

It was quite awkward when no one wanted to support her.

If Tang Qidai were there right now, Lin Shanchu would still accept her as a group member, let alone Wen Tongtong.

The other members were speechless.

The commenters were also speechless.

The members and the netizens all witnessed how much Wen Tongtong targeted Lin Shanchu.

When did the two of them turn hostility into friendship?

Once Lin Shanchu had her first groupmate, the situation became better for her.

Soon, the second member joined their group.

“Big Sister!” Ning Yunxi jogged over with a smile.

Lin Shanchu also beckoned for her to come over and stand with them.

The last three groupmates had nowhere else to go, so they were forced to join Lin Shanchu’s group.

The commenters started discussing excitedly.

[Um… Did the weakest members choose the failing performance?]

[They’ll most likely fail in this showdown. This group is formed of people who’ll be dissuaded of participating this show.]

[I understand now. The production crew never wanted to promote Lin Shanchu in the first place. Instead, theyre trying to dissuade her.]

[She relied on other people’s help and luck during the initial stage and theme song assessments. Let’s see how Lin Shanchu will fare this time.] [I’m waiting for Lin Shanchu to be eliminated in the first round.]

Not only were the netizens criticizing Lin Shanchu’s group, but even the director, who was the initiator, began to panic.

As soon as the recording ended in the morning, the director went to Nan Mu worriedly.

Seeing that Huo Xunzhou was also there, the director hesitated and didn’t dare to speak his mind.

“If you have something to say, just say it.” Nan Mu had already heard that Lin Shanchu had chosen “Death of the Universe”, so he could guess the director’s purpose of visiting him.

The director scratched his head awkwardly. “President Nan,” he said. “Did I go too far this time?”

Nan Mu crossed his arms and looked at the director calmly. “If you didn’t believe that Lin Shanchu could perform “Death of the Universe”, why did you arrange this segment in the first place?”

“It’s not that I don’t believe her. It’s just…

“Lin Shanchu’s performance in the previous two episodes was too surprising, so I think she’ll definitely be able to do it this time! But I don’t think she has much confidence in herself this time, so I’m not sure as well…”

When Lin Shanchu had drawn “Death of the Universe”, she had asked if she could turn down the grand prize.

Obviously, she wasn’t confident at all.

After hearing this, Nan Mu glanced at Huo Xunzhou before replying to the director, “I’ll have a chat with Lin Shanchu later.”

As soon as the director left, the calm expression on Nan Mu’s face disappeared. He paced back and forth in front of Huo Xunzhou with a face full of anxiety.

“Xunzhou, do you think Lin Shanchu will be able to do it this time?

“Fans nowadays are becoming more and more rational. If you have the ability, they will like you. If you don’t have the ability, they will leave you and like someone else.

“If Lin Shanchu fails her performance during the first public showdown, she might get eliminated for real.

“Of course, with our friendship in consideration, I can always open a back door for her…”

“There’s no need for that.” Huo Xunzhou frowned, seemingly dizzy from watching Nan Mu pacing around.

“Don’t we need to open the back door for her?” Nan Mu stopped. “But I haven’t received the resources yet. She might have to stay idle for a long time after getting eliminated…”

Huo Xunzhou’s brows furrowed even more before interrupting Nan Mu, “She knows what she’s doing.”

Nan Mu was puzzled. “Huh? Are you talking about Lin Shanchu? Wait, don’t leave! I’m not done talking yet..

Bam!

The door was closed.

Lin Shanchu was influenced by Yun Wu.

It turned out that she got more and more enthusiastic about eating.

She ran to the cafeteria as soon as the recording ended.

In fact, she was the first to arrive at the cafeteria to order food.

Lin Shanchu had just sat down at the dining table when she saw Yun Wu following her from the corner of her eye.

She couldn’t figure out what Yun Wu was thinking.

If she were to say that Yun Wu was afraid of her, the latter still ate with her every meal.

However, if she were to say that Yun Wu wasn’t afraid of her, the latter still looked like she didn’t dare to talk to her at all.

While Lin Shanchu spaced out, Yun Wu picked two of the largest braised prawns from her plate and put them on the former’s plate.

“The song “Death of the Universe” is a really tough one. You need to eat more.”

Lin Shanchu stared at the two big prawns for a moment before slowly asking, “Are you not afraid of me?”

“Why should I be afraid of you?” Yun Wu shook her head while looking puzzled. Lin Shanchu was stunned. “Then why didn’t you dare to talk to me?”

Yun Wu shook her head hurriedly again. “It’s not what you think. I don’t know how to comfort people. I was afraid that you’d be unhappier if I were to say the wrong things to you.”

“How am I unhappy?” Lin Shanchu tilted her head in confusion.

“I can’t describe it clearly. All I know is that you’re unhappy.” Yun Wu had this feeling when she first saw Lin Shanchu.

After that, even though Lin Shanchu was always smiling, she could feel that Lin Shanchu wasn’t happy at all.

It was only when she found out about the blade that she couldn’t help but mention it to Lin Shanchu.

“Let’s eat.” Lin Shanchu looked down.

It didn’t matter to her whether she was happy or not.

She just wanted to get rid of Lu Shiyuan as soon as possible and then kill him.

Yun Wu, however, started to become talkative again. She asked in a soft voice, “Did Lu Shiyuan treat you badly?”

Lin Shanchu did not respond, so Yun Wu continued, “I knew it. A man who already has a fiancée but is still having an affair with another woman can’t be a good person!

“You can call off the engagement with him. I have plenty of older brothers at home, all of whom are handsome and rich. You can choose any one of them!”

Yun Wu’s generous and indifferent tone made it seem as if she was just selling cabbages.

Lin Shanchu laughed and teased, “Then I must pick the most handsome one.”

“You have a good eye!” Yun Wu gave her a thumbs up. “However, my most handsome brother is the most difficult to deal with. Then again, you’ll definitely be fine.”

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

Although she didn’t know where Yun Wu’s inexplicable confidence in her came from, she started to develop an interest in Yun Wu’s most handsome and most troublesome brother.

Was he more handsome and more difficult to handle than Huo Xunzhou?

After the meal, the two of them returned to their training room.

In the middle of the training, Yun Wu went to the washroom.

When she came out of the stall, she was stopped by Xia Jinmeng, who was guarding the door.

“Let’s talk.”

Yun Wu didn’t even look at her as she walked straight out.

Xia Jinmeng caught up with her and grabbed her.. “Hey! Didn’t you hear me talking to you?”
