Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Just as everyone was discussing the guest’s attentiveness, a cheerful male voice came from the entrance.

“I didn’t expect everyone to discover my clever little trick so quickly.”

The man’s voice was clear and crisp. His melodious, refreshing tone was like spring water that cleansed one’s soul.

Everyone turned around.

In the instant when everyone recognized the male guest, the entire training room fell into a deathly silence.

But soon after, the room was filled with screams of surprise even more exhilarating than when they saw the flowers and cakes.

“Oh my God, it’s Alec!!!”

“Pinch me!! Am I dreaming?”

“President Nan is amazing! He actually invited Alec!” The other teammates were all excited.

Lin Shanchu was the only one who looked at Alec calmly.

SOF was the top boy band for the past decade.

They were popular for many years.

Tvvo of the members were locals.

Sang Min and Alec.

Alec had outstanding features. He had a strong physique, broad shoulders, long legs, and a posture that showed traces of years of training. He appeared slim but had strength.

Alec walked over to Lin Shanchu.

Throughout the entire process, his gaze was fixed on Lin Shanchu with an indescribable sense of scrutiny.

“Lin… Shan… Chu…’

He called out her name word for word as the smile on his face deepened.

He addressed Lin Shanchu directly by her name, without any self-introduction or greetings.

As two parties that were meeting for the first time, such behavior was considered impolite.

However, the way Alec behaved wasn’t like he was meeting Lin Shanchu for the first time.

Instead, it felt like a long-lost greeting between old friends.

His rudeness and impoliteness had been brushed off.

The live broadcast had just begun, so there weren’t many viewers at first.

But once Alec appeared, the live chat burst into an uproar:

[It’s Alec!]

[Is it really Alec?!]

[Oh my god! Is this Alec’s first appearance in the country after SOF disbanded?]

[So many shows had been begging Alec to make an appearance, but now he’s here as a guest!]

[My Stage is winning big time!]

Her teammates looked puzzled and whispered to each other.

“Do Alec and Lin Shanchu know each other?”

“I don’t think so. Alec isn’t from Xu City. These two shouldn’t have interacted before…

Lin Shanchu looked at Alec and said calmly, “Hello,”

There was a clear sense of distance in her tone.

“I indeed intentionally didn’t write a card for you…” Alec paused and observed Lin Shanchu’s expression before continuing with a faint smile, “…Because I wanted to get to know you in person.”

Comment gectinn ?

[F * ck! F * ck! What does Alec mean?!]

[Why was this statement so ambiguous?]

[You guys are overthinking it. Alec has always been like this, a great guy and very gentle.]

The original book did not mention anything about Alec.

Lin Shanchu knew nothing about Alec.

But Alec’s actions after entering the training room conveyed one message- I’m paying attention to you, Lin Shanchu.

They had never interacted before, so why was he interested in her?

“Hello,” Alec reached out to her with a friendly smile.

Lin Shanchu reached out to shake his hand and reintroduced herself.

“My name is Lin Shanchu.”

After saying that, she quickly wanted to retract her hand.

She tried to pull it out of his grasp but found that she couldn’t.

Lin Shanchu frowned slightly. A trace of anger appeared in her clear eyes.

However, Alec seemed completely unaware of her displeasure. He still had a faint smile on when he said, “You still don’t know my Chinese name.” The other teammates shouted from the background, ‘We know Alec’s Chinese name.”

“Alec’s Chinese name is Huo Chaosheng.”

Alec seemed to be unhappy that Lin Shanchu’s teammates had revealed his Chinese name in advance.

“Yes, my name is Huo Chaosheng.” Alec let go of her hand as the smile on his face disappeared.

When he wasn’t smiling, his deep eyes made him look a little gloomy.

Alec’s surname was… Huo?

Was he related to Huo Xunzhou?

Did Alec’s abnormal behavior have something to her acquaintance with Huo Xunzhou?

However, the outside world is unaware of her close contact with Huo Xunzhou in private.

As if finding Lin Shanchu’s contemplative look amusing, Huo Chaoseng asked with interest, “Does my name sound nice?”

Lin Shanchu curved her lips and replied, “Male artists with the surname ‘Huo’ all have nice names.”

“Really?” Huo Chaosheng narrowed his eyes.

Comment section:

[Male artists with the surname Huo? Is she referring to Huo Xunzhou?]

[She seemed like she was complimenting Alec on the surface, but was she actually complimenting Huo Xunzhou?]

[Best Actor Huo won this round.]

[Sister Rabbit was indeed a person who had seen everything. She doesn’t blush at all even when she was standing right in front of Alec.]

[If you had a fiancé like Lu Shiyuan and a brother like Huo Xunzhou, you would probably be like her too…]

Alec’s fans were unhappy:

[There’s no need to praise one and criticize the other. Just praise Huo Xunzhou if you want to. Why drag our Alec into it?]

Netizens retorted, [Why are Alec’s fans so sensitive? The truth is right in front of us and yet we aren’t allowed to say anything about it.]

Fans of the show came out to stop the fight.

[What’s the point of arguing? Just enjoy the show. If you miss even one episode, you’ll miss out on everything.]

Alec’s fans finally stopped.

Lin Shanchu’s fans arrived in the chat.

[I’m just here to see Sister Rabbit’s training results.]

[To be honest, folks, I’m a little scared to watch.]

[I’ll go and mentally prepare myself first, then I’ll come back later.]

The netizens found it amusing.

[Are you sure you’re not Lin Shanchu’s haters? You don’t even dare to watch the song you guys chose for her?]

[What does ‘Sister Rabbit’ mean?]

Informed netizens helped to explain:

[Lin Shanchu did a rabbit dance live stream a few days ago.] [Lin Shanchu’s bunny girl outfit is simply amazing.]

[Her fans now call her Sister Rabbit and even refer to themselves as the

‘nesting grass’ beside her.]

[Pfft- Is that the best name her fans could come up with?]

[They even dared to choose a song like ‘Island in the Sky’, so it’s not hard to understand why they chose a fanbase name like ‘nesting grass’.]

[Her fans are like a flock of sheep…]

Every training room had its own live broadcast.

Among them, Lin Shanchu’s group had the most spectators. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

More than half of the audience was there for Huo Chaosheng.

Huo Chaosheng’s karmic power was extraordinary.

However, due to the large talent gap, their progress slowed down.

Comment section:

[One King carrying one Diamond, three Gold, and one Bronze]

[Is the bronze referring to Lin Shanchu?]

[Don’t say that. Lin Shanchu is still quite impressive even if she doesn’t know how to do it.]

[Lin Shanchu would be like: ‘Thank you for speaking up for me.’] [You guys have completely overshadowed the talents with your comments.

Hahahaha!]

“I heard you guys had already prepared the lyrics. Let’s go through them first,” Huo Chaosheng said as he sat cross-legged on the ground with a song lyrics book in his hand.

Everyone looked at each other in embarrassment.

Huo Chaosheng had his gaze down on the lyrics. Without looking up, he directly assigned a role, “Let’s start with Lin Shanchu..”
