How to become an ACE of a top boy group

Luo felt itchy, so she flinched away: "No, we don't get along."

“Ah, I’ve also heard he’s a bad person, and it’s true.” An Kexin completely trusted Luo Xi and said, “It’s a good thing I don’t know him, or I would be in trouble.”

"It's okay to get to know him, but we have some conflicts. Maybe he's nice to other people."

“Anyone you don’t even like, Eun-hee, must not be a good person,” An Kexin said, propping her chin up as she looked at Luo Xi.

Zhang Shuzhen connected the screen, which looked like a television set, and the big screen then played the stage performance of her personal song selection from the sixth episode. The dynamic singing and dancing music became the best accompaniment for this gathering.

Under Lu Yun's persistent phone harassment, the number of people at the table gradually increased.

Song Wenchen and Le Jing, who were originally going to practice, have already started chatting with Shen Yunhao and Annika.

Shen Yunhao and Rakkyung are in the same company, and they seem to know each other quite well. Shen Yunhao speaks with great respect for Rakkyung.

Next to arrive were Duan Feifei, Shi Chu, and Yin Wenhe. Mai Lai and Liu Min came together and sat down with Lin Sheng and Zhang Shuaizhen.

After confirming that none of the people who came were Gu Minxing or Song Chuchu, who were pre-selected for the program, Liu Jibai told An Kexin that he was leaving first.

An Kexin simply nodded, not even glancing at Liu Jibai, his attention entirely focused on talking to Luo Xi.

This enthusiasm even made Luo Xi feel a bit exaggerated. Was An Kexin this enthusiastic to everyone? But recalling it, An Kexin was indeed very close to everyone, and some people were just very close to her in social situations.

Once Luo Xi understood, he listened attentively to An Kexin's words.

"Duan Feifei is from Yinyue Company. Yinyue is very good at training lead vocal trainees. Shengshi debuted a year before, and the lead vocalist of the group ZONE was poached from Yinyue."

"Shi Chu and Zhang Muze are both from Didi Didi Company. You haven't heard of Didi Didi, right? The name is quite random. This company focuses on training dancers. And Mai Lai, I don't know him very well either, I only know he's from Youwei Training Company. He has a very distinctive singing style..."

With An Kexin providing commentary, Luo Xi was able to recognize almost all 24 trainees in the final round.

"Luo Enxi, hello, this is the first time we've spoken."

Yin Wenhe happily came over to Luo Xi and said, "My name is Yin Wenhe, from Shengshi's label Bom. We seem to be the same age, so I won't use honorifics."

"Hello, hello, Wen He, your dance last time left a deep impression on me," Luo Xi complimented.

"Your part in 'Wishing You Well' is also very good. I heard you wrote the lyrics yourself," Yin Wenhe gave a thumbs up. "Genius! It would be great if we could collaborate on something sometime. Or we could add each other on WeChat!"

"Okay, but I didn't bring my phone."

"I brought it." Yin Wenhe handed over his phone, and Luo Xi entered the number and added it.

Yin Wenhe was quickly called over by Lin Sheng and the others who were sitting over there. After Yin Wenhe left, An Kexin leaned on Luo Xi's arm and said, "Enxi, add me too!"

An Kexin didn't bring his phone, but he took out a pen from his pocket.

"Luckily, I've always had the habit of keeping my pen in my pocket."

An Kexin unscrewed the pen and handed it to Luo Xi, then placed the back of his fair hand on the table and said, "Write your account number on my hand, and I'll add you when I get back."

“Okay.” Luo Xi didn’t think too much about it, picked up the pen, pressed down on An Kexin’s wrist, and started writing on the back of An Kexin’s hand.

His wrists were very flexible, which Luo Xi noticed even more when he wrote. An Kexin's skin was ridiculously good, fair and radiant.

She couldn't help but glance at An Kexin's face. Her features were well-proportioned and delicate, with fair cheeks tinged with a faint pink. Was she wearing makeup now? It didn't seem so. She wondered if it was because the two of them were standing too close.

"Did you put on makeup? Your cheeks are always so pink, it's so cute."

"No, I don't wear makeup when I'm not recording." An Kexin scratched his face with his other hand and said, "Hmm... I suddenly feel a little hot."

An Kexin couldn't explain why he suddenly felt shy. Was it because he was told he was cute? But many people told him he was cute every day, and he had never felt shy before. But now, when this person said it at such an intimate distance, it felt a little... ambiguous?

Is it the other person's pronunciation? Their pronunciation is so sexy… Oh my god, what am I thinking!

An Kexin had to stop this inexplicable thought, but he couldn't stop it at all, even though the other person's expression was very serious.

He could feel the other person gripping his wrist tightly, and the pen tip felt cool and slightly itchy.

He couldn't explain why he wanted to get closer to the person in front of him. He was the kind of person who made friends based on feelings, and it was just a feeling that made him want to do this. And now, he felt that the skin and face that Luo Xi was touching were getting hotter and hotter.

Because An Kexin's skin was very slippery and there wasn't enough ink in the pen, Luo Xi had to write several strokes before she could produce any words. An Kexin suddenly broke free from Luo Xi's hand as if she couldn't stand it anymore and withdrew her hand.

As a master of reading social cues, Luo Xi naturally noticed An Kexin's unusual behavior. She was also puzzled, as she had assumed An Kexin was someone who didn't maintain social distancing.

"Isn't he usually very affectionate in social situations? Why did he suddenly pull his hand away? Why? Did I offend him?"

[041 believes that it's definitely because Rosie's charm level has increased, captivating him!]

"Come on, even triple my current charm level wouldn't be enough to match his! He's the one who's more likely to charm me!"

The sudden sound of a violin playing on the screen effectively eased the awkwardness. This elegant violin piece, so different from the original dance music, captivated everyone.

After the individual song selection, there's a mini variety show.

The show opened with Lee Yong-hyun in a quaint theater. A red curtain covered the outside of the stage, where Lee Yong-hyun, dressed in a classic Western-style suit, played the violin with great emotion.

Song Wenchen exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this Longxuan? Longxuan, your violin playing is amazing!"

"It's alright." Lee Yong-hyun picked up his water glass and took a sip. "Average."

Lu Yun's loud voice quickly came over: "Isn't this the one we filmed? I haven't seen the finished product yet."

Le Jing said, "It's a good thing you haven't seen it; our acting was really awkward."

"Awkward? Then I'm even more eager to watch." Lu Yun said with great interest.

"No, it's very well filmed." Zhang Shuzhen, a loyal viewer of "My Favorite Treasure 101" who has watched all the episodes, said, "It's quite artistic."

This is the stage play/variety show that Luo Xi auditioned for but failed. Luo Xi remembers it.

Finally, I found a topic to talk about with An Kexin: "Kexin, you went to film it back then, right? What did you think of it?"

An Kexin followed the topic and became more relaxed, leaning closer to Luo Xi and saying with a smile, "I think it was filmed very well! Very gorgeous! It's just that the ending was too sad."

Lee Yong-hyun finished his performance on screen and bowed to the camera.

"Dear guests, you have received your invitations. I invite you to enjoy a story, a story of a kingdom. This is a banquet held to welcome the returning navigator. He brought back tea, beautiful silk, and especially a precious piece of porcelain from the East. How beautiful this porcelain is! No one has ever seen such a captivating treasure. The navigator wanted to present this treasure to the king, who held a grand court banquet for him, with fine wine and delicacies. He also invited seven princes to admire it together. The king ordered the court musicians to play the violins, and the treasure was presented amidst thousands upon thousands of pieces of gold and jewels..."
