After this segnt of the recording ended, everyone returned to the dormitory.
Those who had chosen the sa song began discussing what to do this ti.
Yuwei noticed that the atmosphere this ti was much better than the previous two rounds.
During the first public performance, there were too many people, and opinions were all over the place. For the second performance, when everyone realized the show had beco a hit, they had too many ideas. This ti, though, everyone seed more focused on putting together a good stage performance.
In reality, by this stage, the contestants left were basically the best in the industry.
At the very least, they had a good sense of the big picture. Plus, with fewer contestants, they naturally got more segnts to themselves, making it unnecessary to fight over anything.
The most important thing this ti was to do their best and show their best selves.
The production team even designed custom dresses for them.
Their original costus were simple pink Japanese-style school uniforms.
Now, they had switched to brown and gray tops paired with dark plaid pleated skirts.
These were for their group performance of a chorus song.
The teacher for this song was Tian Jiaxuan.
She was all about encouraging each of the contestants.
In class, Tian Jiaxuan even asked Li Shihan to sing first.
Then it was Hu Binbin and Zhang Wei, and she continued to encourage them as well.
This seemingly warm atmosphere carried a subtle undercurrent of lancholy.
Each girl was both reluctant and full of anticipation.
The production team thoughtfully arranged for the senior brothers to visit.
When Senior Brother Mao Mao, wearing glasses, arrived at the practice room, he found that apart from the staff, there were no contestants around.
"Excuse , teachers, um, where are the contestants?" His lack of social skills made him a little confused.
Hiding behind the curtains, Lv Fangxin and the others held back their laughter.
They’d all heard that Senior Brother Mao Mao was a shy person, and now they saw it was true. His deanor wasn’t an act—he was naturally like this.
Jiao Jinglan, seeing Mao Mao at a loss, couldn’t help but give him a "hint," which finally led him to find them behind the curtains.
"Teacher Mao Mao, from now on, I can’t call you ’you’ casually. I’ll have to address you with more respect."
"Why?"
Looking very tense, Mao Mao stood straight, his legs tightly together.
"Because I’m going to place you in my heart."
Qi Ziyue’s words imdiately excited the other girls, who clapped and laughed.
Mao Mao’s face flushed red in an instant.
This Qi Ziyue was too stunning, and Mao Mao was completely thrown off by such a "confession."
Lv Fangxin couldn’t stop laughing either. This Mao Mao—Teacher Mao Mao—was so sincere.
"Teacher Mao Mao, can I sing a duet with you?"
"Which song?"
Mao Mao agreed imdiately—he was genuinely moved.
"Let’s sing ’Relief.’ It’s because of this song that I beca a fan of yours."
Qi Ziyue’s bright, youthful eyes stared at him, making his strong heart beat even faster.
When the two of them sang together, Mao Mao, holding his guitar, couldn’t take his eyes off Qi Ziyue, which made Lv Fangxin and the others secretly giggle.
They found this Senior Brother Mao Mao so amusing, taking Qi Ziyue’s cheesy flirtation so seriously.
anwhile—
Two photographers wearing masks arrived at ng ixuan’s practice room.
"We’re here to record a ssage from you all to the senior brother. Let’s begin!"
The ever-eager Gao Ziyi imdiately jumped to the front, clenched her fists, and began her adorable performance: "Senior brother, you’re so handso!"
After saying this, she promptly turned to look elsewhere with a deadpan expression.
At this point, the caraman suddenly asked, "Will you show this sa expression when you et the senior brother later?"
"No, I’ll smile beautifully and make the senior brother like ."
"No, you will."
"I will not! Oh my gosh!"
Gao Ziyi felt that sothing was off about the caraman today.
"But, if I et Teacher Mao Mao, I’ll be even happier."
A fellow fan of Mao Mao, she still couldn’t quite get over not being chosen by him.
Over there, Jiang ngqi and Liu Feiyu had already sensed sothing odd.
They didn’t recognize the photographers who had just arrived, and one of them clearly had ticulously grood eyebrows.
It was evident. These must be perforrs, and the identity of any male actor on this show was a no-brainer.
However, the two of them didn’t expose it and continued rehearsing as usual.
At that mont, Wang Tingting returned from the restroom.
When she walked in front of the cara, she suddenly realized how familiar the photographer looked.
Since she was a big fan of Xiao Xiao, she found this person’s eyes and eyebrows highly recognizable.
At that mont, the caraman also said, "Take a few close-up shots of them."
"Sure, then please stand behind the backdrop over there!"
Once Wang Tingting heard the photographer’s voice and took another look at his physique, she exclaid with excitent, "Are you Senior Brother Xiao Xiao?"
"Uh! No, I’m not!"
Gao Ziyi was imdiately stunned, nearly wanting to hide in embarrassnt.
Why had she been so carried away just now!
"Is it true? Are you really Senior Brother Xiao Xiao?"
At this point, Xiao Xiao stopped pretending and stepped forward.
Wang Tingting was the first to bow and say, "Hello, senior brother!"
anwhile, Gao Ziyi shouted at the top of her lungs, "I’m sorry, senior brother."
"Who just said they’d be happier eting Senior Brother Mao Mao?"
Embarrassed to death, Gao Ziyi could only hang her head in silence.
However, Senior Brother Xiao Xiao was very easygoing and laughed, "It’s okay. I’ll make you all like ."
Nonetheless, the production team fulfilled Gao Ziyi’s wish and let her et Senior Brother Mao Mao in the makeup room.
Coming out of the dazzling beauty of Qi Ziyue, Mao Mao was taken aback when he saw the plump Gao Ziyi.
"You look much thinner in person than on TV!" Mao Mao, after all, also watched talent shows.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Mao Mao. Do you watch our show too?"
"Of course. You’re so popular—practically everyone around watches."
This instantly exhilarated Gao Ziyi, who felt like she’d truly made it.
Then, she asked a question that could be fatal: "Senior brother, who’s your favorite among us?"
Under Gao Ziyi’s expectant gaze, Mao Mao thought for a while before answering, "I like Lv Fangxin."
That nearly caused Gao Ziyi to collapse on the spot.
After getting an autograph and a hug, the production team wrapped up this special segnt featuring Gao Ziyi.
In another practice room—
Senior Brother Xiong Xiong was preparing a birthday surprise for Fu Xiaoyu.
Since the show was incredibly popular, the senior brothers all wanted more screen ti. To make it interesting for viewers, they had to co up with unique ways to appear.
Senior Brother Xiong Xiong used Fu Xiaoyu’s birthday celebration to create a morable mont for the audience.
It was a mutually beneficial arrangent, subtly highlighting the production team’s preference for Fu Xiaoyu.
Cafeteria—
Lai Ruoxuan’s group was having a al.
However, anyone familiar with the show knew this scene was staged.
During the cafeteria’s regular al tis, it would be packed with people.
Yet now, only Lai Ruoxuan’s group was eating there.
On the other side of the partitioned table, Senior Brother Da Xun walked in with a tray, pretending to overhear the girls’ conversation.
At this point in filming, the staging beca more noticeable.
But there was no choice. With the limited ti the senior brothers had, a full day of shooting might not yield enough material, so scripted scenes were necessary to create more highlights.
The girls jokingly teased Senior Brother Da Xun, naturally for dramatic effect.
