Chapter 128

After lunch, Nan XiangWan went to the dining hall, where she met some other trainees.

She skipped over to get food, then rushed back to sit and eat with everyone.

Zhu Sha gave up her seat for Nan XiangWan and also passed her a bottle of water.

Nan XiangWan took it casually and ate with her head down!

Ge Dongxuan next to her curiously asked, "What were you doing this morning?"

Nan XiangWan: "I did exam questions all morning!"

Ge Dongxuan: "Hahaha! Studying for the college entrance exam? I'm so happy I don't have to take that exam!"

Zhu Sha: "Only Nan XiangWan has to take the college entrance exam right? She's the only minor."

Nan XiangWan ate with her head down, ignoring their teasing.

What's wrong with being underage?

Humph!

Zhou Wenxia was looking at information online and quickly noticed something abnormal.

She exclaimed, "Nan XiangWan! Did Gu Beihuai come to tutor you this morning???"

Nan XiangWan had a grain of rice stuck to the corner of her mouth: "Yeah, he was way too strict, he gave me a zero on the reading comprehension section."

Sha Ling: "What? I heard Gu Beihuai graduated from Peking University and was a top student. It's so awesome that he came to tutor you specifically! With that, you'll definitely ace the college entrance exam!"

Nan XiangWan now had two grains of rice stuck to the corners of her mouth: "He is pretty smart."

Yun Qian: "Hahaha! Nan XiangWan your reading comprehension zero score is trending! What the heck!"

Ge Dongxuan: "Let me see! Let me see! Hahahaha! The way Nan XiangWan is trending is so funny!"

Deng Si Nan: "As expected of you Nan XiangWan! You're killing me!"

Miao Manning was sitting to the side watching everyone laugh loudly, and she laughed along a little as well.

Except her laughter didn't reach her eyes.

These girls would all debut, but not her.

Although the program had given all the top 10 sufficient exposure, Miao Manning still felt it was difficult to integrate into the top 7's little clique.

They had all been in Class A from the start, and were more familiar with Nan XiangWan. Teasing her came naturally to them without any pressure.

But Miao Manning was different. She didn't even have any interaction with Nan XiangWan before.

She couldn't even bring herself to take the initiative to get close to Nan XiangWan.

This made sitting here quite awkward for her!

So Miao Manning got up, wanting to say she was done eating.

But everyone at the table took out their phones, then slapped the table laughing hard, their attention captured by the trending topic "Nan XiangWan's Zero Reading Comprehension Score." No one noticed her leaving.

Zhu Sha noticed, and was about to say bye, but Miao Manning had already turned around and walked away quickly.

Zhu Sha didn't think much of it, and continued wiping the corners of Nan XiangWan's mouth with water.

This kid eats too fast!

And with no regard for choking!

After finishing her meal, Miao Manning went for a walk to aid her digestion. She took out her phone and saw an unread WeChat message.

'Li Banyan: [link]'

'Li Banyan: Hahaha check out the trending topics! Nan XiangWan got a zero on reading comprehension, I'm dying! Go steal her test paper and send me pics of what she wrote hahaha!'

Miao Manning frowned, and didn't reply.

Why was everyone focused on Nan XiangWan?

She put her phone away and, having nothing to do, wandered around the livestream classrooms of the mentors.

The livestream equipment had all been removed from the program's 10 practice rooms now. If you wanted to appear on camera, you had to go to the mentors' livestream classrooms.

Miao Manning didn't have thoughts about debuting, but still hoped for more exposure to increase her popularity!

With this thought, she was about to push open mentor Bian ZhiMing's door when her hand suddenly paused.

Her gaze turned to the classroom at the end of the hallway.

The one that opened today, the fourth livestream classroom.

Originally, the program team didn't plan on telling the trainees about this at all. If it weren't for everyone seeing it trending online at lunch, no one would've known Gu Beihuai had arrived!

But since he did arrive, and as a mentor at that...

It should be okay to go in and ask for advice right?

After all, this was a trainee debut show!

Miao Manning was a little nervous, but she knew opportunities like this didn't come often!

Even just getting the slightest bit associated with Gu Beihuai's popularity was enough to last her half a lifetime!

So Miao Manning took a deep breath, and pushed open the door to the livestream classroom.

Gu Beihuai hadn't had time to eat yet, and was busy organizing essay templates.

How to start, what to write in the middle, how to conclude at the end - he decided to design it all for the little chick!

Let the little chick just memorize it directly!

Even if the writing and ideas weren't good, as long as the little chick put in the effort to memorize it, it would work!

Gu Beihuai was busy when he heard the sound of the door opening.

Without looking up, he said: "Done eating? Take a nap first before coming back."

Miao Manning was startled, and quickly spoke up: "Hello Teacher Gu!"

Hearing an unfamiliar voice, Gu Beihuai glanced up.

Seeing it was another trainee, he frowned without speaking.

Didn't the program team explain this clearly?

He came to raise viewership for the program, and tutor the little chick on the side, but not to actually be a mentor.

If there really were promising new artists, like Nan XiangWan, he was willing to take them under his wing and train them hands-on.

But for those who couldn't even compete for a debut spot, he didn't have time or want to waste time.

Miao Manning kept her head lowered, and didn't see Gu Beihuai's frown. She continued: "Teacher Gu, I'm here to ask for dance advice."

Gu Beihuai: "Teacher Zhao Lan is in Classroom 1."

This reply clearly rejected her already.

Miao Manning was a little embarrassed, but gritted her teeth to make an effort.

She looked up directly at him: "I know, but I want to learn male dance moves!"

Gu Beihuai: "Zhao Lan specializes in street dance, and most male dances are street dance."

Miao Manning panicked, not wanting to miss this opportunity: "But I've never met a teacher as good as you before. Please give me a chance!"

Gu Beihuai: "So you're saying Teacher Zhao Lan isn't good?"

Miao Manning was shocked, her face paling a little.

At this time the livestream was already exploding!

Nan XiangWan fans watched with detached amusement.

Hardcore Gu Beihuai fans rushed out swiftly!

Comments:

- Kill her! He already rejected so clearly! Why isn't she leaving?

- Although I'm uncomfortable that he helps Nan XiangWan all day, seeing someone fawn over him is even more uncomfortable!

- Exactly! At least Nan XiangWan is well-rounded in singing and dancing, and he always takes the initiative to help her, so we fans can't say much! But what is this person doing? Looking to get scolded?

- We won't make a peep if people competing for the debut spots come. But who does this person think she is insisting that Gu Beihuai teach her? The #1 Nan XiangWan didn't even say she wants Gu Beihuai to teach her!

- There are 3 other mentor classrooms right next door, why can't she look for them? Gu Beihuai didn't come to be a mentor, he came to tutor Nan XiangWan! (Although I don't agree with it)

- She's still sticking around after being rejected so clearly?

- I'd rather watch Nan XiangWan, can this woman leave already!

- Nan XiangWan fans, can you chime in? Just watching the show? Someone is snatching your main character's buddy! Say something!

- This brick says I don't want to get involved in other battles, we don't lack buddies.

- Does Gu Beihuai not have many fans? 130 million Weibo followers and no one is fighting? Having to rope us bricks in? Ridiculous!

- Bricks ahead, don't get too cocky! I'm calling for backup on Weibo right now!

- Here we are! What's going on? Someone fawning over our brother? Beat her up!

- I just left and someone is already harassing our brother?

- Who is this person, so ugly, not even as good as Nan XiangWan. Get lost please!

- Warning to Gu Beihuai hardcore fans, don't bring our XiangWan into the battle please! We bricks do not participate!

- Gu Beihuai fans, go fight among yourselves okay? Don't drag, don't bring our XiangWan into it!
