She didn't know what he was thinking right now. Should she ask him? But she was also afraid that things would change because of her intervention.

Forget it, let’s just wait and see.

When it came to Li Xiao's entry into the entertainment industry and becoming a big star, she had made up her mind from the beginning not to disrupt his steps. She had no right and would not allow herself to interfere with his current life just because she knew about his past life.

She should be a bystander, a fan, a friend, not a promoter.

At most, I can provide some help within my ability when he needs it.

Therefore, Cen Cheng let the matter go for the time being. Anyway, Li Xiao would definitely tell them when the time came.

* * * * * *

As soon as Li Xiao answered the phone, Xiao Yingzi, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to tell him the whole story of how she found him, and also introduced their program in detail.

After listening to it, Li Xiao raised a lot of doubts in his mind, and Xiao Yingzi answered them seriously.

Finally, Xiao Yingzi said, "Li Xiao, you have an outstanding appearance. From the video of you participating in the campus singing competition, I can see that you love the stage and singing. Your voice is also very charming. This program is tailor-made for you. You must come and participate."

From her tone, Li Xiao felt her sincerity and appreciation, and immediately made a decision in his heart.

He asked one last question: "Don't you think I'm a little old?"

Xiao Yingzi immediately replied, "Not really. Among the selected contestants, although there are many students who are 16, 7, or 8 years old, most of them are college graduates or recent graduates. There are also contestants who were selected at the age of 25."

Li Xiao: "Then let me discuss it with my family and then get back to you, okay?"

"Okay, okay, you must reply to me. We are distant schoolmates, so you can't be perfunctory."

"Don't worry, no matter what my decision is, I will definitely reply to you."

Li Xiao hung up the phone with a smile. It seemed that they were indeed short of people. Even distant alumni came out. It was really an eye-opener.

Well, it seems to make sense to call alumni who are distant relatives, or alumni of an alumni’s cousin, distant relatives.

Tsk, what am I thinking about? Li Xiao pulled back his racing thoughts and shook his head quickly. He was about to be led astray by that distant schoolmate.

However, after listening to her explanation, he really became interested in this program. Why not give it a try?

While I'm still young, I might as well fulfill my long-cherished dream of being on stage. At worst, I can just go home and continue working at the advertising company.

That night, after finishing dinner and washing the dishes, Li Xiao brought some cut fruit and sat next to his parents who were watching TV on the sofa.

He casually said as he handed the fruit to his mother with a fork, "Mom and Dad, the assistant director of a variety show called me today and invited me to participate in their talent show. What do you think I should try?"

When Li's mother, Ye Zhijin, heard her son's words, she quickly chewed and swallowed the fruit in her mouth, then said, "Son, you're not being scammed, are you? I'm telling you, there are so many scam calls now. She asked you for money to appear on the show? You're not stupid enough to actually transfer the money to her, are you?"

Li Xiao laughed heartily: "Mom, I'm not that stupid. No, that wasn't a scam call! I was telling the truth."

"You say you're not stupid, but why do you believe what she says?" Mother Li took the fruit fork from her son's hand, picked up the fruit and started eating.

"She found me through a teacher from my university. She had a real name, and what she said matched the information online. I checked online, and it was true. The variety show they were preparing was for amateurs nationwide. The assistant saw a video of me singing in college and thought I was suitable, so she found me."

"Did someone really ask you to participate in a show? Dad, did you hear that? Your son is going to be on TV. Are you happy?"

Li Wen, Li's father: "Isn't it really a scam? What kind of show is this?"

"Dad, I'm not lying. This show is about finding amateurs who go through training and competitions, and eventually debut as a group. It's a show that trains amateurs to become stars."

Li Xiao sent the program information he found on his phone to the family group of three, "I've posted the details in the group, you can take a look."

After Li's father quickly read it, Li Xiao asked carefully, "Dad, what do you think? Can I go?"

Dad Li knew that if his son didn't want to go, he wouldn't tell them about it when he came back. Telling them now meant that he wanted to go, but he was just afraid that they would disagree.

"Do you want to go? This is a program for cultivating stars. Do you want to be a star?" asked Li's father.

"Mom and Dad, you know I've always loved singing and stage performances. I think this is an opportunity, I should go and give it a try. Of course, if you object, I don't have to go."

Li's mother agreed: "If you want to go, go. My son is so handsome, it would be a shame if he didn't become a star."

"What do you know? It's not that easy to be a star. That circle is so chaotic." Li's father retorted weakly.

"Dad, here's what I think. Since they invited me, it means I meet the requirements of this program. I want to give it a try. It can be regarded as fulfilling a childhood dream of mine. I can just think of it as experiencing another life. Anyway, at worst, I can come back and continue with my design work."

"Then you better think about it carefully. It's not that easy to get into that circle. Don't regret it later."

"I won't regret it, Dad. I'm just going out there to try my luck and see different things in life. I don't necessarily know if I'll be able to debut as a group. Even if I'm chosen, I still have a choice whether to go or not, right? But if I don't try this time, I'll definitely regret it in the future."

"Okay, as long as you think it through. Since you're going, then take it seriously, give it your all, and leave no regrets. Whether you can make it or not, we'll talk about it when the time comes." Li's father finally said.

Both parents are relatively open-minded, and Li Xiao has long known that they will respect his choice.

I hope this choice is the right one.

Although his parents agreed, he still tossed and turned in bed after washing up that night, unable to fall asleep for a long time, with a lot of random thoughts in his mind.

Standing at the crossroads of life, he was a little confused and a little excited.

The result of sleeping late was that he couldn't wake up the next day. When he arrived at the company with two panda eyes, he was two minutes late.

It was a close call. I almost missed out on the perfect attendance bonus this month.

Li Shengte, who arrived earlier than him, came closer in surprise: "It's rare that you're later than me. Look at your two big panda eyes. Did you steal last night?"
