Rebirth From The Ashes Chapter 469 - Humiliate Himself

Chapter 469: Humiliate Himself

Compared to the other group’s exhilaration, Group F was feeling the heat. Even if they were anxious and angry, what could they do about it?

Their mentor took off after telling them to watch the theme song music video a hundred times. They were not in the position to express their displeasure and resentment. The production crew did not seem to care either.

They had completely given up. Judging by the crus.h.i.+ng brutal and bitter cold treatment they received, they were basically sacrificed by the show.

The music video played on repeat on the big screen, but no one could be bothered to watch. Their eyes may be on the screen, but their minds were elsewhere. Soon, unrest came creeping in.

Han Yan took a look at the time and noticed it was dinner time. She stood up and clapped her hands. “It’s time for dinner. Let’s go or we’ll miss the dinner service.”

The trainees got up and walked to the door when they realized someone was still engrossed in the video. They called out to her. “Hey, grub time.”

They knew who that girl was. She was the subst.i.tute trainee who arrived just today. The girls initially thought she was a competent contestant, but as it turned out, she was at the bottom of the barrel like the rest of them. The girl was probably dragged here to make up for the numbers.

Nevertheless, she seemed to take Mr. Yun Xiao seriously, heeding his orders to watch the music video a hundred times. She was a blockhead to actually do that.

Why should they put trust in that man?

They had never heard of any dance that could be learned just by watching it. It was merely an excuse to brush them off. Only a fool would believe him.

Ye Weiyang looked back and smiled meekly at them before answering softly, “It’s okay. You guys go ahead.”

The girls in Group F were not close to her. They only asked Ye Weiyang to join them because they were in the same boat. Since she turned down their offer, they did not stay behind or say more.

In a matter of a day, these abandoned girls swiftly united and went to the canteen as a group, having found a common ground. They were in the same Group F and had a beyond ridiculous mentor.

News of Group F’s mentor Yun Xiao being completely incompetent, ditching Group F, and running off quickly had reached everyone’s ears. People were discussing it.

As Group F members walked out of their studio, trainees of the same dorm and close friends who were waiting at the door pulled them aside to get further information.

Having caught wind, Song Wenye and the rest gathered and went to look for Ye Weiyang. They found her in the studio completely fixated on the huge screen.

“Yangyang,” Song Wenye cried. “Time to eat.”

Ye Weiyang turned around and smiled at them. “I’m not going. Could you grab me an egg and a bottle of milk?”

Song Wenye drew close. “Aren’t you hungry?”

Ye Weiyang shook her head. “I need to lose weight. You guys are skinny while I’m so fat. I won’t look good on camera.”

Song Wenye took a seat by her and pinched her cheeks. “You’re not fat. Your baby fat is adorable. Tell me the name of the b*stard who called you fat. I’m going to get even with them.”

Ye Weiyang might be shy and self-conscious, but she was not stupid. With many stealing a peek at her, she kept a smile on her face. “No one said it. I think I’m fat.”

Refusing to comment further on that note, Song Wenye changed the topic. “What did your mentor get you to do?”

Ye Weiyang pointed at the screen. “Watch the music video a hundred times.”

Song Wenye could lose it. She knew Group F’s mentor ditched them, but she had no idea they were told to watch the video. “And?”

Ye Weiyang replied, “Just that. I’ve watched it thirty-five times. Only sixty-five left to go.”

At a loss for words, Song Wenye turned to the others.

Tong Kejun cleared her throat. “With regards to studying the music video, I guess it depends on how you see it. To a certain extent, you’d be able to see some sort of improvement. It’s like practicing a dance a hundred or even a thousand times. By then, you’d have the reflexes to imitate the moves.”

Guan Rou concurred. “But you can’t just look with your eyes when it comes to dancing. You need to practice.”

Ji Jingyan and Liu Qianyu indicated they were unsure about the matter. However, a mentor who merely left an instruction to watch the video a hundred times before taking off seemed rather irresponsible.

Ye Weiyang insisted on skipping dinner and proceeded to watch the music video.

Out of ideas, Song Wenye and the rest urged once more before rus.h.i.+ng to the cafeteria.

The cafeteria was swamped with every group. Most of them stuck together with their dormmates.

The other groups were sharing excitedly about their afternoon training with their mentors. It was rather unpleasant for Group F to be around these people. The other group’s happy experience, in comparison to theirs, was a stab in their heart.

Yun Xiao, who a.s.signed the task and left Group F’s studio, showed up on time for the food. In fact, he was the first to arrive at the cafeteria.

He had begun eating by the time the rest came along. While the crowd dumbfoundedly watched on, Group F was tearing into him in their minds.

Yun Xiao had no time to stay in the studio and guide them, but he showed no slowing down in filling his tummy!

The few mentors had picked up on Group F’s situation. Nevertheless, the production team had not scheduled the mentors to teach other groups. Since it was a one-on-one session between the mentor in charge and their own trainees, it was not their place to meddle.

They got their food and exchanged a glance before approaching Yun Xiao. With the shoot still taking place, who knew what would be released after editing?

If the viewer saw him eating alone, they might think the mentors singled him out. It would look bad on them.

Su Muyan was always the one to take initiative. He took a seat and smiled at Shen Xi before asking, “Mr. Yun Xiao, what did you do in the afternoon?”

Heh. The loser could have at least tried to look professional. He was only humiliating himself by ditching the trainees.

Shen Xi deliberately arrived early for dinner just to avoid them. She really did not want to face the moron, Su Muyan. Without lifting her chin, she replied, “Watching a video.”

The trainees were studying the video, so was she. Shen Xi a.n.a.lyzed every single trainee through their videos to customize individual training plans.

Su Muyan nearly blurted to ask if Shen Xi had learned the theme song after watching it a hundred times. Nevertheless, he held it together. “Mr. Yun Xiao, what do you think about the theme song Mr. Xixi made for the show?”

Shen Xi retorted, “Great.”

Feeling that he got the edge, Su Muyan kept up the pace. “Oh. What’s great about it?”

He was going to tear Yun Xiao’s façade apart and force him to reveal his true colors. What did he know about taste? Could he even give a straight answer?
