"Ernie, don't you think that woman is a little too much?" Under the high-intensity practice day after day, even an iron man will have times when he can't hold it - Jiang Shiqi slumped on the floor of the practice room, feeling as if she would never be able to stand up: after all the other trainees dragged their tired bodies out of the practice room, she couldn't suppress the feelings in her heart, and began to babble with a flat mouth.

"Don't talk nonsense, Shiki," lying on his back beside Jiang Shiqi without any image, Pei Zhuhyun even walked back to the trainee dormitory and returned to the bed where she belonged to her ** disappeared, if it weren't for Jiang Shiqi talking to herself next to her, she felt that she would probably fall asleep immediately, "Didn't Qian Oppa also say it before leaving? Back then, the seniors also paid a lot for this song, so why don't we work hard......"

"Ernie, don't say that Qian Oppa is okay, I get angry when I say it," Hearing Pei Zhuxun mention that name, Jiang Shiqi's voice instantly raised an octave, "Do you see what that woman did?

"Shiki, don't talk nonsense. Although there were only two of them left in the practice room, listening to Jiang Shiqi's call of "that woman" one by one, Pei Zhuhyun, who had always stopped this sister's nonsense in time, just said painlessly, "Even if you don't want to call her name, at least call her seniors, this is the rule." ”

That's what Bae Joo-hyun herself did: in the past, she would respectfully call that person Taeyeon's senior, but after being inexplicably targeted by Kim Taeyeon during this period of time, Bae Joo-hyun, who has always followed various rules in the company and almost never complained, also changed her name for Kim Taeyeon.

"ERNIE, DID YOU HEAR WHAT THE WOMAN SAID TO DONDON OUTSIDE THE DOOR AFTER QIAN OPPA ANSWERED THE PHONE AND LEFT?" COMPLETELY IGNORING RIPE JOO-HYUN'S UNCONVINCING "EXHORTATION", KANG SEO-KI STILL CONTINUED HER CRITICISM OF KIM TAEYEON ANGRILY, "WHAT TRAINEE JUST NEEDS TO WORK HARD, DON'T BE DELUSIONAL ABOUT RELYING ON SENIORS OR ANYTHING, DONDON OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING, WHY DID SHE SAY THAT?"

"Shiqi, you be quiet!" Jiang Shiqi's voice was getting louder and louder, and it began to echo in the practice room: Pei Zhuhyun gathered all the strength left in his body before he finally suppressed Jiang Shiqi's voice, "You are talking nonsense here, what if you are listened to by your seniors? Will you be scolded with me every day in the future?"

"Ernie, I just think, is too much of a bully. Listening to Pei Zhuhyun's hoarse voice due to excessive exhaustion, Jiang Shiqi's heart was sour, and she felt that her eyes were already moist - she didn't want to add unnecessary worries to this Ernie who was close to her, she tried hard to endure the feelings that were about to rush out, and wiped a few handfuls of her eyes with her hand, "We have already worked hard, why are we still being treated like this?"

"Anyway, under the guidance of our seniors, haven't we all improved our strength a lot? As a trainee, as long as we work hard to make ourselves better, as for other things, there is nothing we can do to change," I felt the sincerity that this sister was worried about - Bae Zhuhyun supported the floor with her elbows hard, endured the soreness in her abdomen and waist, and after finally straightening up her upper body, she reached out and hugged Jiang Shiqi, who was sitting next to her, " So it's useless to be cranky here...... If Oppa had been here now, he would have said so. ”

"But Ernie, if it goes on like this, your body is really going to collapse," because being hugged by Bae Joo-hyun from behind, Jiang Shiqi could really feel that this close Ernie had "shrunk" his arm a little bit compared to the past - this made her unable to control her feelings all of a sudden, and her tears fell straight down, "If it goes on like this...... The next time she takes the test, that woman will definitely trouble Ernie again. ”

“…… This is also because of my current strength, there is no way to dance like that naturally and skillfully," Facing the results that were almost clear in front of her, Pei Zhuhyun's heart couldn't help but swell with bitterness: But in this case, instead of worrying about her future, she chose to comfort the sister next to her first, "With Shiqi's strength, there will definitely be no problem with your debut...... In case I'm eliminated, you have to remember to keep your mouth shut, and stop talking nonsense......"

"Ernie, don't talk nonsense, how can you be eliminated?" Although this new project of S.M. Company is not a debut project, but just a practical project called "Open Trainee", everyone actually knows that the trainees who have been made public will make their debut sooner or later - if they are eliminated in this project, it is tantamount to being eliminated in the debut plan: Jiang Shiqi, who knew this very well, was so shocked that she almost jumped up after hearing Bae Joo-hyun's words.

The trainees who are selected for this project are actually equivalent to the debut preparatory students - as long as there is a slight chance, who would want to fall before the finish line?

"As long as you work hard, the rest of the things will be ......"

“…… Wait a minute! Ernie in our next assessment, in addition to the two dances, in the singing link, can't you choose your own songs?" Jiang Shiqi has a very strong personality, although she has been a trainee in the company for so many years, she will never bow her head and accept her fate in the face of impending failures or setbacks: as long as there is an opportunity to fight, as long as it is something that can be tried to do, she will definitely give it a try. In just a few seconds, something that had happened suddenly flashed in Jiang Shiqi's heart, who was racking her brains to find a way, which made her suddenly excited.

"Ahh

"Ernie, do you remember how Oppa participated in the assessment back then?"

Rubbing her shoulder, which had become painful from over-practice, Wang Nanqian felt that even the old injury to the soft joint of her right leg was flare-up, expressing her dissatisfaction with him.

Because he was dragged by Kim Tae-yeon in the underground trainee practice room, he only ate one bite of takeaway fried chicken ordered for dinner - if Lu Han hadn't called him in time, he probably wouldn't have been able to snatch the chicken wing from the mouths of the hungry ghosts: Wang Nanqian, who was still thinking that he was fortunate to have vegetable salad to eat, now misses the taste of fried chicken very much, and after the intense dance practice, he feels that not only his shoulders and knees, but also his stomach is also strongly protesting against him, the owner of the body.

"Shall we get up early tomorrow to practice?" Sleepy and tired, hungry and annoyed, almost all the negative attributes he could have were now gathered on him - all the way down the stairs, when he heard Bian Boxian, who was walking in front of him, say such a sentence in a half-dead tone, Wang Nanqian almost couldn't control his mood, and wanted to raise his foot and kick the talking guy directly to the first floor to vent his feelings.

"Didn't Brother Seunghwan and Brother Hyun Jun say that they should start practicing early from next week, at least in the last few days, let's have a good rest and rest," it was Lu Han who finally responded to Bian Boxian, who was also exhausted from a long day of practice - the last time they practiced so much was when they first debuted, "Anyway, it won't get worse for us, will it?"

I don't know if it was because I was too tired, or because no one wanted to have such a sensitive conversation at such a time, but none of the twelve older boys spoke again, and walked down the stairs in silence.

"Ah...... Hello seniors. Before he could get out of the stairwell, Wang Nanqian heard a familiar voice sounding in the entrance of the company - when he finally took the last few steps, two figures who were getting up from the floor of the entrance and bending down to salute them suddenly came into his sight.

After that greeting that was a little disrespectful because it didn't have any volume, he heard Jiang Shiqi's voice with some crying: "Oppa, help Ernie." (To be continued.) )
