Just when the other teammates were sighing, a staff member came in and said, "Everyone can take off those clothes after you've tried it. Then you can go to the training room to practice dancing."

Everyone complied.

This time, there will be live audiences coming to the scene. And many trainees' families belong to the relatively wealthy type. Therefore, although it seemed that many audiences would come to the scene this time, in fact, many family members of trainees would be the ones to mostly come to the scene. Before the official program started, there were already many people whispering about who would come over from their home this time.

Jian Xingsui was practicing dance in the dance studio. His dance foundation was the worst, and he was also the student that the dance teacher paid the most attention to.

"Jian Xingsui, that movement is wrong."

"Slow, slow."

"Xing Sui, look here."

After the other teammates finished, Jian Xingsui usually chose to stay in private to practice more.

In fact, Jian Xingsui had felt guilty for dragging down his teammates' progress, so he always practiced until late every night. Even so, it was still somehow him dragging his teammates but his teammates were still good-natured and didn't blame him.

On the third day of rehearsal, the captain held a small meeting.

Shen Xingchen sat cross-legged in the middle, and he said, "The lyrics of the song we chose are not bad, but the tune is a bit slow, which will limit our dance moves. You have also noticed that these movements are relatively simple, and we will have no advantage compared to the frenetic dances of other groups. "

The other teammates also agreed.

An Ran was very good at dancing this kind of national-style dance. He was able to do well himself, so he tentatively said: "We can work harder and perform better. Then we will still be able to compare to other groups."

Shen Xingchen had a fiery temper. What he was best at was giving replies to stupid people: "Tell me which group on the stage won't perform 'better'. Now the main focus of the problem is not that at all."

An Ran bowed his head a little aggrievedly, and looked pitiful: "I just don't want everyone to be too pessimistic."

Shen Xingchen didn't have time to talk to him now: "Now is not the time to be pessimistic. No matter how well we will perform in this song, it will not be as impressive as those of the other groups. In fact, I have an idea, Suisui, you could turn Zhou Xun's swaggy and passion full song into a love song on the first stage, then will you also be able to edit this song a little bit? "

Jian Xingsui never thought that Shen Xingchen would entrust such a heavy responsibility to himself.

The other teammates also reacted after some time:

"Yes!"

"Xing Sui, I still remember your arrangement of that song to this day!"

"You are truly a god-level song reviser!"

"Can you help us revise it?"

Jian Xingsui was stunned for a while. He didn't expect everyone to trust him. Before this, he was a drag, but now, he could actually contribute to the team.

Seeing Jian Xingsui's hesitant appearance, An Ran said with a smile, "Forget it, Suisui is also very busy practicing dancing every day, so don't make it difficult for him."

Shen Xingchen asked Jian Xingsui directly, "Can you do it?"

If he also had to revise the song while learning so much dancing at the same time, it was indeed a lot of work. Even if he refused to revise, others would not think there was any problem.

However, Jian Xingsui was silent for a while and said, "I can do it."

Everyone else smiled, only An Ran's smile faded. He said, "Xing Sui, then will you still have time to train yourself? Won't this delay you?"1

Of course, he knew Jian Xingsui's ability to arrange and edit music.

If he was allowed to show it, would he still have room to shine?4

Jian Xingsui said softly, "My dance foundation is poor. Even if I practice again, it will be a drag on you guys. If I can edit the song to help the team, I'm willing."

After saying this, Jian Xingsui secretly felt that his teammates who were silent before could not wait to slap him!

Shen Xingchen came over and put his arm around Jian Xingsui's neck and said, "What nonsense are you talking? Who is dragging whom? There is no such thing as losing in this young master's team, so hurry up and edit the song. Even it's for thousand days and nights, I will stay with you as long as you need me for practice."

The other teammates also relieved their suspicions because of this conversation.

"We will also practice with you."

"Isn't it just not being able to dance, I'm very good at teaching it to others."

"Let's all practice with Suisui!"

Everyone gathered around, but An Ran was ignored in place.

Obviously just a few days ago, because An Ran's national style dance was very good, everyone surrounded him and praised him. But now they suddenly regarded him as a transparent person, all revolving around Jian Xingsui.

In a place that a group of people couldn't see, An Ran's always gentle face turned cold, and there was a sharp look in his eyes.

......

A few days later—the day of the performance.

The backstage of the program group was very lively. The contestants were basically ready and being prepared in the backstage. Because everyone was nervous, everyone was chatting in private.

In his spare time, Wen Shengge came over and said, "Sui Sui, you know what, I heard that the online voting list has come out now. We have very few debut positions this time. There are only six positions in total. Do you know who the top six people to get those positions will be? "

Jian Xingsui answered honestly, "I don't know."

"I have some gossip." Wen Shengge came over and whispered, "The first confirmed position is of Brother Chen, and the second is of An Ran."

Jian Xingsui was not surprised.

What Wen Shengge didn't expect was that he was so calm: "Aren't you surprised?"

Jian Xingsui was of course not surprised. He knew that the protagonist's smooth road will not stop here. He will make his debut in the Center position, and then he will participate in a variety show next to become popular. Then he will reach the pinnacle of his life.

"I thought this matter was quite strange, so I went to inquire more, and then I heard some amazing news, do you want to know?" Wen Shengge approached and said, "That An Ran, he is actually the brother of the popular star Jian Zhi ah!"

Jian Xingsui stopped drinking water.

"Jianzhi ah! I'm really envious. It's no wonder that An Ran's popularity is so high. It was probably because someone was backing him." Wen Shengge sighed: "He really has a good life. We can't match him at all. And the most important thing is how low-key he was! If I had such a brother, I would have showed off every day, right? "

Showed off every day.................

Jian Xingsui lowered his head and vaguely recalled his past life in a trance. When some broken memories were remembered again, they hurt like glass shards piercing your heart.

"My brother is Jian Zhi!"

''My brother is best. Why can't I brag about him?''

"Why did you scold my brother? Do you want to fight?"

"Brother, brother..."

From childhood to adulthood, his brothers were the ones he liked the most. But he was very stupid, and he always did a lot of wrong things, which made his brothers angry:

"It's all because you were coming to find me, and the paparazzi followed you to photograph my scandal."

"What were you fighting for? Now the media says my brother is a gangster."

"Jian Xingsui, can you fucking save some face for me?"

In fact, he knew for a long time that he was a mediocre and not excellent person from the inside out. It was only the excellence of his brothers that made him look ''good''. He always thought it was his blessing, but he didn't expect that it would become a lifetime of pain and shackles in the end. Maybe many things were wrong from the beginning.

Wen Shengge was still babbling: "Actually a lot of people's parents came today. I heard that Brother Chen's mother also came. She is the young lady of the Shen family. I heard that Mrs. Shen is very good-looking, I really want to see what kind of woman can raise the kid with the temper of Brother Chen?"

Jian Xingsui's mood was a little down. He didn't have much interest. He said, "I'll go to the toilet."

Wen Shengge said, "Oh, then go and come back quickly."

"Um."

When Jian Xingsui learned that he might perform in front of Jian Zhi, his mood was a little complicated. After going to the toilet, he came out and washed his face with cold water on the sink. While cleaning, a voice came from behind: "Jian Xingsui."

That both familiar and unfamiliar voice made his body freeze.

Jian Xingsui slowly turned around and saw a face that made him nervous. He took a deep breath and said, "Second brother...Mr. Jian."

Jian Zhi was standing by the sink. Today he was wearing a suit. He looked very handsome and upright. 

Jian Zhi turned on the water in the sink, and said in a low voice, "Yo! It looks like you have made progress. You finally know to call me MR. JIAN!"

Jian Xingsui didn't speak.

"I heard that you didn't take the money from eldest brother and father when you left?" Jian Zhi continuously seemed like he was mocking when he spoke: "When you left, you left quite simply, but as a result, you came to Ran Ran's variety show and you are even targeting him everywhere. What do you want to do with him?"

Jian Xingsui was suspicious: "When did I target him?"

"You know he's afraid of you, yet you deliberately came to participate in this variety show. What 20,000 yuan? You didn't even want the millions that eldest brother and father gave you. What kind of poor character did you come here to set up. Trying to act miserable? Jian Zhi looked at Jian Xingsui with disgust: "You really make me sick!!!"

2

When these words full of hurtful meanings fell into his ears, Jian Xingsui who had thought he didn't care for these things for a long time, felt as if his heart was shattering into pieces.

He turned his face away, not wanting to let his injured eyes be seen by Jianzhi. He said stubbornly: "I don't need to explain to you what I do. As for whether I was acting miserably or not, if you think so, I have nothing to say. "

Jian Zhi didn't expect that Jian Xingsui would actually retort.

He sneered, turned off the faucet, and slowly wiped his hands with a piece of paper: "If you weren't acting, then I really 'respect' you, but I'm here to warn you that in this camp, don't try to bully Ran Ran because..........'', he smirked, ''.... he is my brother now."

Jian Xingsui's heart became cold a little bit.

Jian Zhi raised his head, looked directly at him, and opened his lips: "Also, in the whole entertainment industry in the future, never mention that I was once your brother." (T/N: I told you how pain in ass this Jian Zhi is! And sadly this is just the beginning.'')

After the voice fell, Jian Zhi wanted to wait for Jian Xingsui's reaction, but the young man just stood there blankly without any reaction. His face was too calm. Maybe he had been in pain, but after too much pain, he was numb. 

The child had grown, his dream was gone, and he had finally learned to comfortably be numb. 

It was unknown why, but at this moment, Jian Zhi suddenly remembered, many times, there was a boy with enthusiasm and a little hope, who always followed behind him and called softly: "Brother, brother..."

But now, that child just silently bowed to himself, then turned and left.

Inexplicably, he had originally come here to see Jian Xingsui crying and begging him. Afterall this once good for nothing brother of his was someone who used to worship him. So he had thought, at least in front of him, he would beg to call him brother again. And now even though he had achieved his wish of mocking this kid mercilessly, when he saw the back of Jian Xingsui leaving, Jian Zhi's mood suddenly became complicated.4

......

On the other side, Jian Xingsui, who appeared to be unresponsive, turned around and entered the unmonitored stairway after leaving the bathroom.

Just now, he had been holding back all kinds of emotions. Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it. Now he was leaning against the cold corner where not a single soul was present all ALONE. His lips trembled slightly and his eyes were dyed red. Finally, he couldn't hold back two lines of tears. He cried.......

Just when the boy's shoulders were leaning against the white wall, someone walked by outside. He held back his choking and did not dare to make a sound, trying his best to digest the surging pain in his heart.2

At this moment, the footsteps of high-heeled shoes came from the stairway. It was a gentle female voice calling someone: "Chenchen, where exactly are you talking about, mother can't find it..."

Except for her voice, everything was silent.

The woman who happened to be there stopped her voice and looked at the boy in the corner. Shen Xingchen on the other end of the phone was still saying, "Hello, Mom? Why don't you talk?"

Xu Enzhen responded casually and hung up the phone. She stepped forward and walked a few steps to Jian Xingsui, and said softly, "Child, what's the matter with you, are you alright?"

The woman's gentle voice broke the last psychological defense of the boy.

Jian Xingsui shook his head randomly. His voice choked: "I'm okay, I'm.......really.....okay..."

Because he had lowered his face and the light on the stairs was a little dim, for a moment, Xu Enzhen had thought she saw her little son. But Jian Xingsui was obviously more immature and younger than Shen Xingchen. The young boy squatted there and silently wiped his tears in embarrassment. They clearly didn't know each other, but Xu Enzhen couldn't help feeling pitiful for this child. An unknown panic and distress emerge from the depth of her heart.2

She suddenly thought in a trance, if her third child hadn't died, he would have been as old as this child by now.
