“Alright.’
The girls obediently quieted down.
The director asked, “So far, besides having Lin Shanchu sing ‘Two Tigers’ and perform pole dancing, does anyone have any other suggestions?”
“Five hundred push-ups,” Xia Jinmeng insisted.
The director smiled and nodded, “Any more?”
Most of them wanted to see Lin Shanchu perform a sexy dance again because they couldn’t get enough of it during her performance in the second round.
Everyone looked around, hoping that all of them would vote for pole dancing while secretly hoping for someone to propose another more exciting “punishment” for her.
Suddenly, a clear voice rang out amidst the soft murmurs.
“Do the rabbit dance.”
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice and realized that it was Wen Tongtong.
Ever since Wen Tongtong and Xia Jinmeng broke up and she ended up in the same team as Lin Shanchu, she had become quite reserved.
She didn’t talk much and would spend all day training, maintaining her mediocre ranking and a relatively low presence.
Everyone was a little surprised that Wen Tongtong would express her opinion so they were all staring at her.
Wen Tongtong seemed a bit uncomfortable getting all the attention and her expression became uneasy.
The director nodded, “Alright, rabbit dance.”
Wen Tongtong cleared her throat and added, “The adult version of it while wearing a fluffy bunny girl outfit.” “Wow, I want to see this too.’
The director was speechless.
He had worked on a myriad of different varieties of shows before, but this group of trainees was the most difficult to understand.
He turned to look at Nan Mu, hoping to get his input on this.
But when he turned around, Nan Mu was nowhere to be seen.
He had already retreated to the outskirts of the crowd, behaving in a way that seemed like he wanted to stay as far away as possible.
Nan Mu shot him a smile that said, ‘It’s your decision’.
He had once argued with Li MO about when Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou should get married.
Although they couldn’t decide on anything, the one thing both of them concluded was that Lin Shanchu belonged to Huo Xunzhou.
How could he decide whether or not Lin Shanchu should perform pole dancing or an adult version of the rabbit dance?
That was such a joke!
He still wished to live a few more years.
The director let out a long sigh, it turned out that the biggest victim in this was himself.
He gave in and said, “Alright, let’s vote. Everyone write your answers on a small piece of paper.”
If they voted by raising their hands in public, it would definitely break the peace among the trainees.
After all, Xia Jinmeng was also a debut member.
And she was the only one who wanted Lin Shanchu to do five hundred push-ups.
Of course, the director had to be considerate of her image and not embarrass her.
Xia Jinmeng didn’t like it, but she knew in her heart that there was nothing wrong with the director’s approach.
A member of the production crew went around with a box and collected everyone’s notes.
When it was time to count the votes, Xia Jinmeng stepped forward, “Can I count them?”
Without an answer, she confidently took the voting box from the staff member’s hand.
There must be more people other than her who wanted to see Lin Shanchu suffer.
So naturally, there would be a lot of people voting for Lin Shanchu to do push-ups.
She was only worried that the director was biased toward Lin Shanchu and would ask the staff to fake the results.
The production crew member glanced at the director to seek his opinion.
The director gave a gesture of approval and allowed Xia Jinmeng to handle it. When Xia Jinmeng took out the first piece of paper, she couldn’t help but smile.
“Five hundred push-ups.”
The handwriting was not hers.
Indeed, she wasn’t the only one who disliked Lin Shanchu.
The next three votes were also for Lin Shanchu to do push-ups.
Xia Jinmeng was so happy that she could not help but laugh as she continued reading.
“One vote for the rabbit dance.”
“One vote for pole dancing.”
Fortunately, there was another vote for push-ups.
The votes for push-ups continued to increase and were about to surpass ten people.
There were only about forty votes left uncounted.
Yun Wu began to worry for Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu calmly comforted her, “It’s okay. It’s just five hundred push-ups.”
For someone who exercises regularly, doing five hundred push-ups is not too difficult.
But Yun Wu knew that Lin Shanchu’s physical fitness was not good. Although, Yun Wu had always been puzzled by Lin Shanchu’s physical endurance.
Her fitness was poor but somehow she was able to endure high-intensity training, but at the same time, sometimes she appeared very weak.
It was simply unlike a normal person’s body.
However, Lin Shanchu wasn’t concerned about whether she was going to do push-ups or dance.
She hid her phone, that was a fact.
So, she accepted the punishment.
She was even hoping that Xia Jinmeng would be even harder on her and make her do a thousand.
She wanted to see if she could die from exhaustion.
Unfortunately, Xia Jinmeng’s happiness didn’t last long.
The number of votes for push-ups stopped at nine.
The rest were all for pole dancing and rabbit dancing.
After reading the last vote, Xia Jinmeng reluctantly said, “Now, let’s announce the final result…”
Growing impatient with Xia Jinmeng’s reluctance, Yun Wu shouted directly,
“The one with the most votes is the rabbit dance!”
Xia Jlnmeng glared at Yun wu.
Yun Wu provocatively glared back.
Xia Jinmeng snorted in defeat and left.
The director sent a female crew member over.
“Everyone, please tell us about your requirements for the bunny girl outfit. Our production crew will try our best to provide a costume according to your preferences. ”
The trainees excitedly shouted their opinions.
“We want big pink ears!”
“The kind with a tail.”
“Since it’s summer, maybe the costume should have spaghetti straps.”
“The shoes should also be furry…”
The director silently retreated to Nan Mu’s side.
“President Nan, don’t you feel that their requests are getting more and more perverted?”
“Yes,” Nan Mu’s expression was even more serious than the director’s.
“Young ladies nowadays…” the director pondered for a long time before completing his sentence, “They know how to play.”
Suddenly, Nan Mu called out in a very polite tone, “Brother Yi Ming.”
“What’s wrong?”
Whenever Nan Mu was so polite, Song Yi Ming would feel a bit scared.
Nan Mu’s expression turned grave, “If anyone asks, Lin Shanchu’s rabbit dance had nothing to do with me.”
Song Yi Ming was puzzled, “It had nothing to do with you in the first place.”
“Yes, that’s correct!”
Nan Mu was afraid that the petty Huo Xunzhou would vent his anger on him if he found out.
Everyone unanimously decided to give Lin Shanchu some time to prepare.
Preparing the costumes would also take time.
So it was decided that she would perform the rabbit dance for everyone tomorrow night.
Once the other trainees left, Nan Mu finally got the chance to talk business with Lin Shahchu.
“You know what your fans did, right?”
Lin Shanchu had a phone with her all this while, so she must be well aware of what was happening online.
Lin Shanchu nodded, “I know.”
“Then, what do you think? Do you want to debut?” Nan Mu couldn’t guess her thoughts, so he asked her directly.
“All along, my goal has never been to debut. As long as the fans don’t feel that it was a waste of money, it doesn’t matter to me whether I debut or not.”
The fans had spent quite a sum of money to vote and support her, so they deserve to be respected.
Nan Mu didn’t try to convince her otherwise, “Once you’ve made up your mind, let us know and the company will make the necessary arrangements.”
With Lin Shanchu’s current popularity, forming a group might not be the best choice for her..
