Yan Yuanze had it all figured out.
Si Fuqingâs class might have been small, but after she displayed her prowess yesterday, more students would surely choose her this time. He needed to secure a spot in advance.
His foundation was far stronger than Xu Xiyunâs back then.
If Xu Xiyun could secure 23rd place under Si Fuqingâs guidance, why should he worry about not breaking into the top ten?
Throughout the training, Yan Yuanze had heard from several trainees at Tianle Media about Si Fuqingâs precarious position in the company.
Therefore, she would surely take advantage of âYouth With Youâ.
âYan Yuanze, you really are shameless,â Xu Xiyun said. âWhat did you say back then? You said youâd rather have no mentor than stay in Teacher Siâs class!â
âSo why are you back, wagging your tail like a dog? Whereâs that backbone you had?â
Yan Yuanzeâs face turned a shade of livid green. âXu Xiyun, what are you blabbering about? I never said that. It was Teacher Lin who asked me to sit in on her class! ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIâm just a trainee, sheâs the teacher. How could I choose?â
âTeacher Lin Qianyan requested it?â Si Fuqing finally lifted her head, her eyes tinged with a smile. âSo it wasnât your initiative?â
Yan Yuanze nodded frantically, âTeacher Si, Iâve always respected you and will practice diligently! â
He shot a triumphant look at Xu Xiyun.
Xu Xiyun was furious.
Before he could retort, Si Fuqing reined in her smile and spoke in a cool tone, âAh, get lost.â
The smile on Yan Yuanzeâs face froze. âTeacher Si, what did you say?â Si Fuqing didnât even look at him.
âDonât understand human speech?â Xu Xiyun came to life again, âTeacher Si told you to get lost. Hurry up! You think youâre worthy to hear our training plans?â
âXu Xiyun!â Yan Yuanze scoffed, âI have a better foundation and have practiced dancing for five years. What about you? Have you even danced for two months?
Youâre just afraid Iâll surpass you!â
âYan Yuanze, youââ Xu Xiyun was about to say something when a raised hand silenced him.
Si Fuqing lifted her head again and pushed her bangs back, âSurpass who? Who can you surpass? You can neither sing nor dance; why should I take you in?â
âDo you think my class is a garbage dump for taking in trash? I wonât teach you because youâre useless. I donât teach trash.â
Xu Xiyun might have a weak foundation due to limited practice time, but he was genuinely talented.
Sometimes, he was just too lost in his own world to communicate effectively.
Yan Yuanze never expected Si Fuqing to be so straightforward.
His face flushed red. âTeacher Si, how could youâhow could youâ¦â
Within the entertainment circle, which celebrity didnât care about their own image at all?
Si Fuqing, being a teacher, shouldnât she be magnanimous and unconcerned?
Just then, someone called out to him: âYan Yuanze.â
Yan Yuanze shuddered all over.
He jerked his head up and discovered that the voice belonged to Xie Yu.
Taking two steps towards him, Xie Yu emitted a soft, low chuckle. His eyes, however, were sharp as a razor: âTeacher Si is neither your sister nor your mother. She wonât indulge you. Who do you think you are, some big shot that the entertainment world must bow to?â
âSheâs only eighteen, younger than us, get it?â
Xie Yu was generally laid-back, but it was rare to see him exude such solemnity.
Once he shed his typical nonchalance, an overpowering, commanding aura emanated from him.
Yan Yuanze, just an ordinary man, found it unbearable and was forced to step back.
His face twitched with embarrassment.
Si Fuqingâs behavior these days indeed made it hard to associate her with the age of eighteen.
Yan Yuanzeâs face flushed red. Ashamed to say anything more, he made a hasty and awkward exit.
Dashing out of Dance Room 2, he ran into other trainees returning for practice.
He kept his head down, but his voice penetrated everywhere.
âDo you guys know? Yan Yuanze, I remember him and a bunch of people heading to Dance Room 2, they were just hanging out there,â one trainee said. âSaying theyâd rather have no mentor than be in Teacher Siâs class. I heard it clear as day.â
âSo he has the nerve to come back to Teacher Sits class? What a thick face he has.â
âHahaha, serves him right! Now he regrets it, but she wonât even take him back. Everyone knows he got to the next round just by luck, as if heâs so great that the mentors would fight over him..â
