There was no cheer, no joy, more of a cold silence to the bone.

Except for Ye Lan, who was pale, and Quan Yuli, everyone was angry.

What the hell is this Lee Soon-gyu who came out at the end?

Kwon Yoo-ri suddenly stood up and rushed out of the door of the conference room and ran towards Li Xiuman.

Standing still in front of Li Xiuman, Quan Yuli's face was full of tears, she never dreamed that she would be the one who was not selected, obviously she was so good.

"Teacher. . . Why.. ”

Li Xiuman sighed, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, but he was soon occupied by ruthlessness, and he was gambling.

"You're good, but you're too much like Ye Lan. ”

Kwon Yoo-ri's eyes were hollow.

"Wait for the next time, it won't be long. ”

Li Xiuman patted the girl's shoulder, smiled cruelly, and left.

From the first year she joined the company, Quan Yuli Xiao Yelan's nickname has never been on her head, although she doesn't like this nickname very much, but after all, Ye Lan takes good care of her, so she acquiesces.

There is even some complacency.

But now, Ye Lan has become the biggest shackle that imprisons her.

She is very good, she is perfect, but she will never be able to get rid of the shadow of Ye Lan.

Li Xiuman is right, Girlhood only needs one Ye Lan, not a second Ye Lan.

And she happened to be the second Ye Lan.

Kwon Yoo-ri walked back to the conference room in despair, and ironically, the first person to hug her with a concerned face happened to be Ye Lan.

"Yuli, what did the teacher say. ”

Looking at Ye Lan's concerned eyes, Quan Yuli smiled desperately, her eyes were extremely cold, that kind of coldness was something Ye Lan had never seen before.

"Ernie, the teacher said I was too much like you. ”

。。。。。。

The dormitory was surprisingly quiet tonight, not only Ye Lan's dormitory was quiet, but even Kwon Yoo-li's dormitory was also suffocatingly quiet.

There is no way to comfort Kwon Yoo-ri who lost the election, because the reason for this defeat is too cruel.

The moment Kwon Yoori said those words, everyone understood that they had always been competitors to each other, but their luck was just a little bit better than Kwon Yoo-ri.

Unlike Kwon Yoo-li, who was crying silently in the dormitory, Ye Lan has been silent since Kwon Yoo-ri said that sentence to her.

The silence scared everyone.

Now Ye Lan seems to have returned to the time when he didn't come to the company 8 years ago.

Every day, I sit on my own cot empty, hugging my legs.

And now she's doing just that.

The clothes on his body have always been the same as they were in the conference room.

She hadn't eaten dinner, hadn't washed up, and had been sitting there since she came back from the conference room, burying her head between her legs.

There is one thing that only Ye Lan himself knows.

She's the one who is superfluous.

It was she who snatched Kwon Yoo-ri's dream, and the person who originally stood on the stage was not her, it was Kwon Yoo-ri.

She's the outsider.

On this night, it was as if everything had changed, as if the previous six years of love and affection were all illusions, and when the truth was laid out in such a cruel way in front of everyone, the good sisters were nothing.

Until the lights in the dormitory went out naturally, Ye Lan continued to act like that.

Zheng Xiuyan couldn't look at it anymore, and climbed down from the bed and shook Ye Lan's shoulder.

"Ernie, it's not your fault. ”

Zheng Xiuyan's voice seemed to be a switch, and Cui Xiuying and Kim Hyo-yeon, who had not slept, also got out of bed and gathered around Ye Lan.

"Yes, Ernie. I don't blame you, it's just that Yuli is unlucky. ”

"Yuli still has a chance, Ernie don't blame yourself too much. ”

"Ernie?"

Ye Lan raised her head slightly, her eyes were empty, and Zheng Xiuyan was a little frightened.

What she saw in Ye Lan's eyes was endless self-denial.

Ye Lan felt that she was the same as sitting on the ground and watching the car that caught fire in front of her that night, the same powerlessness and self-blame.

If it weren't for her, her parents and sister wouldn't have died.

If it weren't for her, then there would be a name for Yu Li in the list of debutants now.

She seems to be like a special existence, constantly depriving the happiness of the people around her.

It used to be my parents and sister.

Now it's Kwon Yoo-ri.

And what about after that?

Could it be Zheng Xiuyan who is standing in front of her now, or Kim Hyo-yeon whose eyes are red.

or the expressionless Choi so-young,

She didn't know it herself.

"Ernie!"

Zheng Xiuyan broke down and roared, shaking Ye Lan who was self-denying.

Then he hugged Ye Lan, who was trembling now.

"Ernie is not your fault. It's none of your business. ”

"Su-yeon. ”

Zheng Xiuyan listened to Ye Lan's empty voice, and quickly let go of Ye Lan's expression staring at Ye Lan.

A little suffocation followed.

She had never seen Ye Lan with such an expression.

The face of despair was full of gloom.

"It's my fault. ”

。。。。。

In the dormitory late at night, except for the ticking of the alarm clock and the gentle breathing of the girls, only Ye Lan sat quietly on the bed and looked at the photos of the bedside through the moonlight.

Look at yourself smiling brightly in the photo.

Ye Lan thought about it alone for a long time, and she suddenly realized a very important problem.

They haven't debuted yet.

And all this, there is still room for redemption.

Unlike last time, this time God gave her time to make amends.

Ye Lan quietly got up from the bed, walked to the bathroom and washed her face with cold water, looked at her face in the mirror, and smiled confidently, she was Ye Lan, but she was the strongest trainee since the establishment of S-M.

She decided to use her future to make a bet with Li Xiuman.

And the beneficiary is not her, it is Quan Yuli.

Since she snatched Kwon Yoo-li's place, she will give Kwon Yo-ri a place.

When the sky was hazy, Ye Lan was already standing downstairs in the S-M office building, and went upstairs with the employees who opened the door, and Ye Lan came to the door of Li Xiuman's office.

Maybe she came too early or Li Xiuman was late, Ye Lan decided to wait here until Li Xiuman appeared.

An hour later, Ye Lan was already sitting at the door of the office dozing off, and Li Xiuman was late.

Looking at Ye Lan, who was sitting at the door of his office with a little head, Li Xiuman smiled confidently, it seemed that he had made the right bet.

Sure enough, what Ye Lan cared about most was those girls.

。。。。。。

"Ernie. Can you get me a glass of water?"

Zheng Xiuyan suddenly opened her eyes, feeling the discomfort in her throat, and habitually opened her mouth to let Ye Lan in the lower bunk take a hand.

But no one answered.

"Ernie Ernie!"

Zheng Xiuyan looked down at the lower bunk and found that the figure that should have existed on the bed was not there, and the girl was a little frightened.

Ye Lan can't think of anything stupid for a while, right?

With this thought, Zheng Xiuyan hurriedly woke up Choi so-young and Kim Hyo-yeon, who were still asleep.
