After the competition ended, the contestants returned to their apartnts in the villa area together. The top ten contestants who advanced stayed on, while the eliminated contestants were free to leave. They were only required to make one final appearance at the end of the show, and even that was optional, entirely up to the contestants to decide.
On the way back, Li Tianchao’s face looked awful, but clearly, no one here cared about his expression. The atmosphere inside the car was gloomy, silent, with everyone preoccupied with their own thoughts, and they returned to their accommodations in silence.
The next day, Du Wen arrived early while the remaining ten contestants were gathering for breakfast. Upon seeing Du Wen, they imdiately stood up to greet him, and Li Tianchao’s face brightened too, thinking that Du Wen was there to see him. But Du Wen’s words only made Li Tianchao’s face darken again.
"Wu Xing, let’s talk after breakfast," said Du Wen openly, directly addressing Wu Xing. He wanted to show everyone Splendid’s sincerity.
The program itself was a talent show, and all contestants knew that the top three finalists would be the ones to sign contracts with Splendid Entertainnt. During the competition process, Splendid Entertainnt would also pick artists with potential to sign contracts. This was no secret maneuvering, so Du Wen operated openly and honestly.
Wu Xing’s eyes lit up, and he wolfed down his food, then followed Du Wen back to his room.
"I’ve discussed your matters with the company, and Teacher Qin has also agreed on behalf of the company to your requests. If you don’t have any other concerns, then let’s sign the contract," Du Wen said, smiling as he waited for Wu Xing’s reply, the contract laid out in front of Wu Xing.
Wu Xing was straightforward, picking up the pen and signing his na on the contract. With this, the new team that Qin Jiran wanted to form now had three mbers in place, with only the problematic Li Tianchao left to consider.
As for Li Tianchao, it was not only a consideration for himself but also for Qin Jiran and Du Wen, whether to sign him or not, or even if signed, whether to include him in the group. With Li Tianchao’s current mindset, it wasn’t certain whether he would be suitable as a group mber.
Wu Xing escorted Du Wen all the way to the gate of the villa before returning with a face full of joy. The remaining contestants imdiately asked, "Wu Xing, did you really sign a contract?"
"Yes, the company is really good, they agreed to send my mother abroad for treatnt!" Wu Xing said with sincere gratitude in his voice. He was truly thankful that the company had agreed to such a request. In fact, since the competition, it wasn’t that no other entertainnt companies had approached him, but none were willing to et his requirents, or even if they were, they wanted him to sign a very unequal contract. Only Splendid Entertainnt not only agreed but also offered him a very fair and preferential contract.
"That’s great, congratulations. Now you can compete without any pressure," said one envious contestant, voicing the sentints of several others.
"How can that be? There’s still pressure. Now that I’ve signed the contract, I need to perform even better to not disappoint the company! I also want to prove that I’m truly worth signing," Wu Xing clenched his fists to pump himself up. He had always been confident in himself and now wasn’t the ti to let that spirit weaken. He still had his eye on the championship!
At that thought, Wu Xing involuntarily glanced at Tang Ya, who had been quiet; among these contestants, he already considered her his main rival!
Tang Ya and Leng Yue had already signed contracts, but not everyone was aware of this. It wasn’t that Du Wen intended to keep it secret, but because the last ti he t with the two of them was before the top ten competition, Du Wen had chosen to et privately, considering not to affect the other contestants’ morale. Now that the top ten had been finalized, Du Wen could approach them in the open, offering an incentive to the contestants.
