Let me see your shine!

This is a common occurrence in the entertainment industry.

She searched for a while and soon found the target on Twitter. Some of Hua Lian’s elementary and middle school classmates came out to show off.

After a while, Li Xi pieced together her past from various sources.

“…It turns out she’s such a hard-working person.”

In order to get into Shengxiang, Hualian practiced very hard.

There are even videos online of her joining a troupe and performing in stage plays.

She watched a few clips.

"……Amazing."

Li Xi continued to watch some video footage and knew that Youren was not lying.

Hua Lian is indeed not someone who relies solely on talent.

She knew the truth and finally let go of her entanglement with the second episode of "Girls' Opera".

"Haha, pure hard work really can't compare to someone who is both talented and hardworking..."

She laughed to herself.

"But it's also true that Karen started fighting right after entering school, and then defeated Junna who worked so hard."

Li Xi hesitated for a moment and sent a private message to Hua Lian: "Ai Cheng-san, please work hard. I will watch over you."

"RIKKI-chan?!"

Hua Lian was shocked when she saw it—was she being threatened?

why? !

I didn't offend her!

and……

Karen: "My last name isn't Aijo!"

Li Xi: "My name isn't RIKKI either."

Hualian: “…”

When Li Xi saw her reaction, he also felt that it was a bit strange that he suddenly looked for her.

Li Xi: "I'm sorry, it's my problem, not your fault."

Karen: "Oh? Haha, it's okay! What happened?"

Li Xi: “It’s not a big deal…”

Hua Lian: "It's okay if you don't want to say it."

Li Xi hesitated for a moment and started typing.

Riki: "I'm just confused about how Karen won over the hard-working Junna in episode 2..."

She told everything, including her conversation with Yuto.

Karen: "Haha, Yuto-san said that? Oh, wait, did you really check it out? I'm a little embarrassed."

Li Xi: "Sorry."

Karen: "No, no, no, you don't have to apologize. It's all public information anyway. And I really didn't try very hard before... It's similar to the situation in "Girls' Opera"."

Hua Yilian: "Before Guang-chan came back, I felt unmotivated because she was not around. After she came back, I suddenly felt relieved. The reluctance to work so hard before came flooding back, and I couldn't muster any motivation anymore... Now that I think about it, it really shouldn't have been like that.

How should I describe that feeling? Yeah, I feel like I'm lost on the road of life!"

Riki: "So a genius like Koyama-san can also be lost?"

Hua Lian: "Genius? I don't think I'm a genius. By the way, just call me Hua Lian."

Riki: "...Okay, Karen. You can call me by my name too."

Karen: "Oh, then I'll call you Riki-chan! Anyway, I'm just desperately chasing my goal and working hard. In terms of talent, many people in Shengxiang are better than me."

Li Xi: "Even so, in my opinion, you are already a genius enough... Unlike me."

Hua Lian became curious.

She left her chair, stopped doing her homework, and lay on the pillow, concentrating on chatting with Lixi.

By the way, she is not in the dormitory now, but has returned to her hometown.

Shengxiang is a boarding school and students cannot go home during the week, so many students go home during the summer vacation.

Hua Lian and her friends were filming this year and couldn't leave.

But since Youren went to England, they could go home for a few days when they had time.

Hua Lian took this opportunity to go back to her hometown and will be back to Shengxiang in a few days.

So she is in her room now.

Karen: "What's wrong? I heard Riki-chan is a very talented drummer, right?"

Li Xi: “That’s not the case…”

At this time, Li Xi was also in bed.

She lay on her side and started chatting with Hua Lian.

Time passes little by little...

They talked for a long time.

Perhaps it was the atmosphere of the night, they unknowingly spoke out some of their worries.

There is the story of Li Xi feeling inferior because her sister is too outstanding; there is also the story of Hua Lian feeling pressured because she thinks the people around her are too capable.

Karen also complained that Yuto said some nonsense to Maya, which led to her being targeted.

Li Xi also condemned You Ren, thinking that he was too close to Deng.

In the end, I didn’t know who stopped talking first, but they all fell asleep.

But it's summer vacation now, so it won't hurt to sleep late.

After they woke up, they felt a little embarrassed when they saw the chat history.

But Hua Lian felt very comfortable chatting, so she took the initiative to ask Li Xi out to play.

Li Xi hesitated for a moment and agreed.

And so a wonderful friendship was born...

Yu Ren, who was far away in the UK, was concentrating on filming, not caring about what was happening outside, and even stopped joining the group chat.

He didn't really search online for reviews of Shao Ge's second episode, just confirming that it was generally well received.

Overall, the reviews for the second episode of Shao Ge were very good, but the click-through rate was not high.

The first free episode received over 10 million hits, but the second paid episode couldn't break that mark.

But Yuto doesn't think this is a problem. Popularity will accumulate slowly, and it is normal at the beginning.

The days passed quickly.

Thanks to the efforts of everyone in the crew, he finished filming the required content one day in advance, and was able to have a day free to move around.

Yuto hadn't originally planned to go sightseeing, but since he had some free time, it wasn't impossible for him to go and have some fun.

By the way, you can also buy some local specialties to give as gifts.

Early in the morning, Youren and He, led by Guang and Weimei, went to visit tourist attractions.

In the afternoon, he bought a lot of tea and chocolate, preparing to give them to people when he got home.

He was too lazy to choose, so he just bought the expensive ones.

After dinner, Youren wanted to go for a night walk, so he asked He and the others if they wanted to go.

The raccoon dog said it wanted to rest.

Wei Mei bluntly said she was not interested.

In fact, during today's sightseeing, Youren also noticed her attitude. Weimei almost said that she had never felt happy staying in the UK.

"I'll go with you, Yuto-san."

In the end, only Guang was willing to go with him.

"it is good."

Youren agreed and set off with Guang to tour London at night.

217 Kids, I'm back!

Leisurely and light walked slowly, and came to the Thames River, where they could see the Tower Bridge of London.

“It’s quite comfortable here.”

Youren held the railing and looked at the scenery.

"Yes."

Guang said nostalgically, "When I was in England, I often practiced my lines and vocals here."

"That's great."

"Ah."

Guang was looking at the scenery while talking to Youren about the past.

After a while, she said, "It always feels strange to share details of my past life with Yuto-san."

"Strange? Is it because it's not Karen you heard?"

"...Maybe. If possible, I would also like to visit London with Hua Lian and share this city where I have lived for ten years with her."

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and Guang gently pressed his hair:

"But if the target is Yuto-san, then that's fine."

"I am honored."

Yuto pretended to be a gentleman and successfully made her laugh.

"Thanks to what Yuto-san said earlier, I've been enjoying school life more and more lately."

Guang said to Youren.

Before this, Guang had always been afraid of Hua Lian's brilliance and was afraid that he would not be able to stand on the same stage with her.

But with Youren's therapy, she figured out a lot of things.

"Don't you care anymore?"

"I can't say I don't care at all, but I think I'll be fine being alone."

Guang looked at the river and said, "Even if I am just one person, I am still myself. Nothing has changed."

"Everyone has their own days, like me. I used to think I couldn't become the president."

Youren looked at the scenery and said silently.

Guang suddenly said: "But Hua loves her..."

"I know."

He nodded.

Guang figured it out, but Hualian was different.

She has been working very hard recently, but her biggest goal is still to stand on the stage with Guang.

Only by being with Guang can Hua Lian show her true strength.

This won't work, she also needs independence.

The light is certainly her motivation now, but if she continues like this, it will sooner or later become a cage that binds her.

Neither Guang nor Yuto wanted Karen to continue like this.
