Entertainment: If you asked him to be a star, he'd just want to quit.

The competition continues in full swing!

After chatting with Zhou Chen for a while, Li Mingxuan didn't say anything more. Sometimes, it's necessary to know when to stop and when to stop.

As for the person he slapped, Li Mingxuan didn't know when it was his turn. When he returned, the person's face was still swollen, but the swelling had subsided considerably.

Li Mingxuan used some technique in that move; although the sound was loud, it wasn't very forceful. His face would only swell slightly, but it wouldn't affect his speech.

Most importantly, make him feel pain!

Whether or not they can wake him up is anyone's guess.

In the semi-finals, everyone gets screen time, but it will be cut. Some people only get very short shots, while others get more screen time for their highlight moments.

Everything that happens behind the scenes will also be released as a trailer.

The recording continued until 8 p.m. before everyone gradually left, boarded the bus, and returned to the hotel.

Of course, there is a one-hour break and meal time in between.

Before getting off the bus, Li Mingxuan and Zhou Chen exchanged WeChat contacts and became friends.

That evening, after learning what had happened backstage, Han Feng was surprised by Li Mingxuan's boldness and decisiveness, and even went to his room in person to discuss the details.

Finally, he said it was fine, and that if needed, the official statement would be issued, which could be seen as Han Feng showing favoritism towards Li Mingxuan.

After all, Li Mingxuan was the biggest surprise and the most talked-about contestant in this competition.

Li Mingxuan was naturally extremely grateful, and said polite things to appease him for causing him trouble.

They've given you so much face, you can't be cold and sarcastic towards them, can you? It's better to be a little more tactful.

……

With the semi-finals over, there will be a break of nearly a week.

On the one hand, the organizers need to edit the footage from the entire day, which is quite time-consuming.

On the other hand, it is also necessary to promote the competition.

And the contestants who advance to the top 16 need to prepare for the finals, so they have a week of free time.

During this period, everyone can naturally go back, and the eliminated contestants can only go back as well.

I ordered takeout from the hotel, but the hotel kitchen was already closed at this time.

Li Mingxuan ate something quickly, then took a shower and rested. He had already bought a train ticket back.

It wasn't because he was worried about someone causing him trouble, but because he needed to go back and record "The Sea" and a few other songs.

The next morning, Li Mingxuan left the hotel with his backpack.

Summer clothes are already thin, and he knew his backpack could hold them all. He doesn't like carrying a lot of bags when he goes out; it's best to travel light.

Just as he was sitting in the car back to Jinjiang City, two girls stood at the door of his room. They were Lin Yue and Hu Jiao.

Only after knocking on the door for a long time without anyone answering did she inquire at the front desk and learn that the person had checked out and left early that morning.

This made Miss Lin grit her teeth in anger. She had gotten up very early, only to find that the other person had gotten up even earlier.

Thinking about how she had gotten up early twice over the years, both times for him, she felt a lot of resentment.

The first attempt left her empty-handed, and the second time she didn't even see the person.

Looking at the gloomy and unpredictable beauty beside her, Hu Jiao was somewhat hesitant. At this moment, Lin Yue was someone she dared not provoke.

"Um, Sister Yue, where are we going now?"

"You can run away, but you can't hide. I know where he's hiding. Let's go back!" Lin Yue said angrily, then lifted her foot and swayed away.

"Huh? Where are we going back to, Yue-jie?"

"Go back to the hotel to pack, then head back to Linjiang!"

"..."

What Li Mingxuan didn't know was that he had already been resented and that someone was about to come looking for him in his hideout.

He dozed off in the car for a while, and arrived in Linjiang City before noon. He had lunch at a restaurant outside and then went back to his place.

On the way, he told Chang Xuanling about the competition and that he had returned to Linjiang, which naturally made the latter feel disappointed.

However, we agreed to have dinner together again during the next finals.

……

the other side.

In a luxurious apartment, a pink-faced boy was screaming and shouting, his face contorted with rage, his eyes bloodshot and filled with murderous intent.

It was the trainee who got slapped by Li Mingxuan.

He is Liu Yumeng, and his father, Liu Hantang, is the director of the artist department at Feihuang Media, so he has a certain background.

Liu Hantang originally wanted to use the "Rising Star" competition to boost his son Liu Yumeng's popularity, and then make him a star with the support of his own resources.

But this good-for-nothing son has brought him utter disgrace. Relying on Liu Hantang's status, he not only flirts with women and acts arrogantly in the company, but now he has also embarrassed himself in the competition and even got slapped.

This slap was not only a lesson for Liu Yumeng, but also a slap in the face for Liu Hantang!

Seeing his son's swollen face, he felt even more urge to beat him to death.

But after all, he's his own son. It's fine if I beat him or discipline him however I want, but if someone else disciplines him outside, it's like they're pointing a finger at him and insulting him. How can he swallow that?

"Dad, you have to get revenge for me! That bastard hit me in front of so many people, all because of you!"

"Dad, don't you have connections on the competition side? If you eliminate him, I'll blacklist him!"

Liu Yumeng's face was full of murderous intent, and he gritted his teeth, wanting to kill Li Mingxuan.

"Hmph! You good-for-nothing! I've warned you repeatedly at the company not to be arrogant and domineering just because you're your father. Now you've embarrassed yourself in public. Where do you want me to put my face?" Liu Hantang looked at Liu Yumeng, who was throwing a tantrum on the sofa, with a look of utter disappointment.

At this moment, a woman with pink makeup walked in through the side door. The woman was alluring and dressed in revealing clothing, with large expanses of snow-white skin exposed, which was very eye-catching.

“Darling, Yu Meng was beaten, so of course he was furious. As a father, it’s only right to avenge his son when his child is humiliated outside. Teach that ungrateful brat a lesson, and then teach Yu Meng a lesson.”

The woman nestled close to Liu Hantang's chest, her two full breasts pressed tightly against him, twisting and deforming to reveal a deep and alluring abyss. Even Liu Yumeng couldn't help but be drawn into it, his eyes practically plunging into it.

"Hmph, you good-for-nothing! Alright, go back and prepare for the finals. If it weren't for my attention, you would have been eliminated based on your performance on stage!"

Liu Hantang put his arm around the woman's slender waist, reached out and dismissed Liu Yumeng, his disdain evident on his face.

Liu Yumeng, his face ashen, left slowly, his wolf-like eyes fixed on the beautiful woman's figure as he closed the door.

"Hmph, if he weren't my son, I wouldn't care whether he lives or dies!"

"Okay, honey, calm down. You were so rough with me last night, my legs are all weak. Give me a leg massage, okay?"
