Entertainment News: I'm Not a Scumbag After Rebirth!

"I'm sorry, third brother, I didn't mean to ruin this."

Huo Bing apologized to Li Jun, clearly not expecting the consequences to be so severe.

Just now, Gao Chen went to complain to the counselor in tears, which made it impossible for the original plan to proceed.

Li Jun patted Huo Bing on the shoulder and comforted her:

"It's okay. Whether we contact him or not, we have to face this issue. After all, the decision has already been made."

Cheng Xin also comforted her from the side.

"What if the third brother gets first place? This is a direct cooperation channel between the school and the platform. If a celebrity takes a liking to Jun Ge's song, we'll be set for life."

Upon hearing this, the most composed Feng Lei silently shook his head and chimed in.

"It's highly unlikely; it's all pre-arranged."

Upon hearing this, everyone around fell silent. This had been the rule for many years, and people like them without connections basically had no chance.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Li Jun tried to lighten the mood.

"You all look down on me that much? So what if it's pre-selected? I'll use it to campaign for votes. What if a celebrity takes a liking to my song and it becomes a huge hit? Then Dad will be financially independent and can support his sons every day."

Hearing Li Jun's unserious voice, the three people who were in a tense atmosphere finally couldn't help but laugh.

"Get out of here!"

.......

In a rented room in Chengdu, a languid beauty lay on the bed for a long time, reluctant to get up, and made a phone call, coaxing the man on the other end of the line.

"Xiao Jun, I want three xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) and sweet bean juice."

Zhang Liangying's languid voice came from the other end of the phone. She had gotten used to having Li Jun around and had begun to indulge her little quirks.

She had just hung up the phone when she suddenly slapped her forehead, realizing that Fang Zhi also slept here, and she hadn't mentioned her breakfast.

When she called back, she couldn't get through to Li Jun either.

Are they already riding bikes? Zhang Liangying pitifully prayed that Li Jun would bring two more, otherwise she would have to eat two less later.

Li Jun rode his bicycle leisurely, completely unaffected by the vibrations in his pocket. His plans for the upcoming race were still clear, and he had a good grasp of the situation.

"Open the door."

Li Jun gently knocked on the door of Zhang Liangying's rented room. Inside, there was a soft rustling sound of someone getting up, and a loud thud as someone bumped into something on the table.

The sound grew closer, but seemed to stop at the door. Zhang Liangying leaned against the door and asked secretly, her heart filled with anticipation and a touch of nervousness.

"Xiao Jun, you brought some steamed buns."

Li Jun responded to her question with a smile:

"Three buns for you, three for me, and one cup for you, one cup for me. It's just right and there's no waste. If you can't finish it, I can help you finish it all."

Zhang Liangying peered through the peephole for a while and saw that Li Jun had indeed only brought six steamed buns, and hadn't hidden anything behind him. She instantly collapsed to the ground, feeling utterly powerless, thinking:

Oh no, I didn't bring food for Fang Zhi on the very first day I met her. I feel like a wicked mother-in-law... I guess I'll just have to eat two less myself.

Hmph! That wretched Li Jun, he knew perfectly well that Fang Zhi would be staying here, but he didn't even warn me. I'll leave him hanging for a while.

The haughty Zhang Liangying raised her head from inside the door, wondering if Li Jun could guess the reason.

However, Li Jun clearly didn't follow the usual procedure. When he saw that Zhang Liangying wouldn't open the door and was secretly peeking at him through the peephole, he knew something was wrong.

"Sister-in-law, open the door! It's my brother!"

Li Jun pounded on the door, seemingly trying to attract the attention of the surrounding neighbors.

Zhang Liangying, who was inside the door, blushed instantly and quickly opened the door to pull Li Jun in.

"What are you talking about...?"

Zhang Liangying was on the verge of tears. How could he say such a thing? How could she ever hold her head up in front of her neighbors again?

Who knew that after Li Jun put the six slightly chilled steamed buns on the table, he took out three steaming hot steamed buns from his pocket.

Zhang Liangying's expression changed from crying to shock mixed with some happiness.

As Li Jun unwrapped the plastic bag, he muttered to himself:

"These three hot packs are for you. The competition starts soon, so take care of your stomach."

He slipped his hand into Zhang Liangying's hair, resisting the urge to mess up her hair.

This heartwarming scene was quickly shattered when Fang Zhi, drawn by the aroma, ran out. Still half-asleep, her eyes lit up the moment she saw the steamed buns on the table.

"Li Jun, you're really biased. I'm a contestant too, how can you treat me differently?"

Fang Zhi said that, but her eating skills didn't diminish, and she was still very grateful for Li Jun's steamed buns.

"Okay, I'll put it in my belly to warm you up."

Li Jun reached out to take the steamed buns from the table, and Fang Zhi, looking a little anxious, grabbed the buns with her arm as if she were possessively protecting them.

Unexpectedly, Li Jun's hand, halfway out, struck Fang Zhi on the head, giving her a sharp rap on the forehead.

Fang Zhi remained unmoved, tightly protecting her steamed buns, fearing it was Li Jun's diversionary tactic.

Li Jun didn't make any further moves, but waited patiently for the two to finish eating.

......

The knockout stage has begun, with 50 teams advancing to 20.

The elimination rounds of Super Girl were held as scheduled on Chengdu TV. This is a stage for talent to be displayed and fierce competition to take place, and the place where countless stars rise to fame!

This place was even more breathtaking than Zhang Liangying and Fang Zhi had imagined. The huge crowd of spectators and the colorful stage lights all took pictures of the small area in the middle. Compared to the massive crowd, this place seemed to be submerged.

The lights started flashing wildly; the show was about to begin!

"Super Girl!"

His powerful and penetrating voice traveled through the stage and the crowd, resonating in the ears of every audience member.

The audience was aroused to a frenzy, opening their hands to their mouths like trumpets:

Sing if you want to!

The atmosphere inside and outside the stage was instantly ignited, with the crowd wildly waving their celebratory sticks.

"Good morning, everyone! This is the Super Girl live broadcast. I'm your host, Li Xiang. Hello everyone!"

Li Xiang's steady male voice contrasts sharply with the familiarity of the dialect.

"good!"

The countless spotlights gradually quieted down, ceasing their frantic flashing, and the crowd also quieted down. Li Xiang began to explain the competition rules.

"After nearly 50,000 people voted in the Super Girl auditions, 50 strong contestants were selected to stand on this big stage."

"This is a night filled with dreams and music. Every dreamer who walks out from here could be tomorrow's brightest star!"

Li Xiang's voice gradually rose, and his emotions became increasingly high.

"Tonight, let us witness together the most dazzling light! Let everyone with a pure love for music shine on this stage!"

Suddenly all the lights went out, and beams of light gradually came on, shining on the center of the stage, while the host, Li Xiang, had disappeared.

"The first girl to appear is... Li Yuchun!"
