Practice Room
"Yuwei, you’re so brave." Zhang Zijing couldn’t help but move closer to her friend.
"Yuwei, amazing!" ng ixuan also smiled and said.
"I feel like we’re becoming more and more like a real team." Wu Zixuan added with a smile.
In that instant, the group of girls suddenly felt a profound bond, heart to heart.
Perhaps, with the final battle approaching, a sense of bittersweet camaraderie amidst life and death welled up in each of them!
Dorm Room
Ye Yuwei had just started preparing her things when Lu Bingbing walked in.
"Zijing, I want to borrow Yuwei for a bit."
"...Ah! Bingbing-jie, you two go ahead and talk."
Hearing her speak so boldly, Zhang Zijing couldn’t help but blush as she stepped out of the room.
Ye Yuwei, however, remained calm as ever, walking with Lu Bingbing to the bathroom, away from the prying eyes of surveillance caras.
"Bingbing-jie..."
"Yuwei, do you hate ?"
"No. We sisters from Galaxy never hated one another."
Ye Yuwei’s words brought tears to the corners of Lu Bingbing’s eyes.
"Yuwei, you’re right. We sisters from Galaxy will always be sisters."
"Captain, you and I both know the despair of being in that training ground, so I’ve never blad you. Everyone just wants to improve themselves."
Relief flashed across Lu Bingbing’s face, but soon it dimd into lancholy.
"Back then, I gave up everything to enter this ’river.’ In my heart, it was once full of light. I always believed in what we said when we joined: dreams, hard work, perseverance."
"To , this river was a utopia, a fortress shielding us from all the filth. But sohow, at so point, it turned turbid."
Lu Bingbing’s pace of speaking was steady, as though recounting a story from an autumn night.
Ye Yuwei understood the despair and helplessness her captain felt at that mont.
"We yearned to cross this river and enter the bigger entertainnt world, but I wanted to do it with dignity, to earn everything that was truly mine. Yet now, we’re stuck in the era of CP pairings."
Lu Bingbing closed her eyes in anguish, her hands clenched tightly.
"Captain, you’re too worked up. Take a break."
"No. I must finish saying everything today, or I may never get another chance."
Lu Bingbing suddenly opened her eyes. That intense, piercing gaze made Ye Yuwei shudder involuntarily.
"I once disciplined you all to master singing and dancing, but despite your talents, you couldn’t shine in the selection."
"No, Captain, you were right. To make it out of Galaxy, we need real skills."
Ye Yuwei still supported Lu Bingbing’s strict focus on singing and dancing.
Even today, it proved her captain’s foresight.
"Those fights for positions and resources—those are the things that shattered the hearts of those who entered Galaxy with dreams and made them leave."
Lu Bingbing’s words left Ye Yuwei heartbroken. Too many had left Galaxy.
"People say I’m the best captain Galaxy ever had, but deep down, I’ve only felt failure and powerlessness."
Ye Yuwei couldn’t suppress her emotions any longer. She gripped her captain’s hand tightly: "Captain, you are our best captain. You always will be."
"Yuwei, promise you won’t hate Galaxy, okay?"
Looking at Lu Bingbing’s pleading eyes, Ye Yuwei sighed and said:
"Captain, I’ve never hated Galaxy. Without it, I wouldn’t be who I am today."
"With my talent back then, no major company would’ve taken . Besides, Galaxy protected us very well."
Relieved, Lu Bingbing nodded, tears glimring as she smiled: "Then I can rest assured."
After she left, Zhang Zijing walked in.
"Yezi, Bingbing-jie seed a bit emotional."
"Yeah, she told a lot today."
"Oh!"
Zhang Zijing didn’t probe further, sensing it was Yezi’s personal matter.
"She wants to help the sisters from Galaxy once I beco famous."
"Ah! But we can’t even help ourselves right now!"
"That’s why she didn’t make it explicit, only asking not to hate Galaxy."
Zhang Zijing fell quiet for a while. She knew a lot about Galaxy through Yezi.
"Yuwei, do you truly not hate Galaxy? They’ve tried to destroy you."
"Galaxy is my utopia. I only hate those who ruined it."
Zhang Zijing understood what Ye Yuwei ant.
"Yezi, if I can’t debut this ti, I think I’ll be heartbroken for a long ti."
"I don’t know what the outco will be, but these days here are sothing I’ll never forget."
"Yezi, too. You are my most beautiful mory here."
The two unconsciously held each other’s hands, seeing unwavering friendship in one another’s eyes.
"Yezi, after leaving here, I don’t know if anyone will still bring breakfast."
"Or take care of all night when I’m sick."
"Or pick up and drop off when I’m practicing in the studio."
Listening to Zijing list these almost childlike monts, Ye Yuwei couldn’t help but laugh.
But Zhang Zijing grew more serious, her gaze burning brighter and brighter.
"When I got hurt during dance and singing practice, you’d encourage ."
"When my face broke out and I felt unattractive, you’d console ."
"When it rained yesterday, you brought an umbrella."
"You stood by from being unknown to winning the fan-vote king last ti."
As she spoke, tears rolled down Zhang Zijing’s face.
She couldn’t imagine her life without Ye Yuwei.
Ye Yuwei reached out to tidy Zijing’s loose hair and wiped away her tears: "No one knows what the future holds. But let’s savor every day we have."
Jiang ngqi’s Dorm
She stood on a chair, talking to the cara.
Her personality was sotis like a child’s.
She hoped the caraman could record everything about her, so she could save it to a USB drive and take it with her later.
But the staff had already made it clear that no footage could be taken. Still, she couldn’t resist talking to the cara.
"Tomorrow, Yezi and the others are going to participate in the show."
"We’re all very tired. They’re even more exhausted. In just a few days, it’s the final."
"I don’t think I’ll make it. I’ll probably leave with a heavy heart."
"Though I don’t want to say it, that’s really how I feel."
Tears welled up on Jiang ngqi’s face. She felt her emotions had beco so much more sensitive here.
"But I’m still really happy. Gao Ziyi could actually debut."
"Today, neither of us embarrassed our ’bug sisters.’"
"I know it’s silly, even risky. But I’m an idol, a girl group mber."
"I can’t abandon what I believe in. Otherwise, I’m not worthy of being an idol."
Jiang ngqi tied a large white balloon to the surveillance cara.
"Yezi is so brave. She’s like a captain."
"Our final debut group will definitely be amazing."
"I really don’t want to go back ho to de-boning chicken feet. That’s so exhausting, so hopeless."
"You know what it’s like to work as a factory girl on an assembly line, right? It just erases all your dreams and hopes."
She wiped her tears with her hand.
"The dorm is empty now. In a few days, no one will be here."
"I’ll take one thing I love as a keepsake."
"Goodbye, my youth, my dreams."
She climbed off the chair and slowly settled on the floor, curling up like a baby.
Her tears overflowed uncontrollably.
Unbeknownst to her, Zhou Dan was watching her with a phone in hand.
On the desk beside her was a large sheet of paper, with her and Gao Ziyi’s nas boldly written on it.
