Song Song couldn’t stand this kind of pestering. Plus, the person was her savior, so she reluctantly agreed and smiled politely, "Okay, let’s add each other for easy contact."
Zhou Yunxian was suddenly a bit excited, not expecting that his grand kitchen efforts would lead him to lower himself so much to pursue a girl.
"Yeah, yeah, to make contact. Little Fairy, you’re absolutely right."
He then swiftly added her on WeChat and changed her note to "Cute and Invincible Little Fairy."
"Little Fairy, are you from Qingcheng City?"
"Hmm, sort of!"
"Wow, the land here is really good to nurture someone as adorable as you."
"Hehe, thank you!"
"..."
As soon as Qiao Yu stepped into the venue, she spotted Song Song in the corner with an extremely handsome man beside her. She then walked over with a warm smile.
"Hi! Song Song, yesterday you went to the bathroom, but why didn’t you come back afterward?"
Song Song looked up and saw Qiao Yu, feeling like she had seen a lifeline, and immediately ran over, "That’s because I felt really sick to my stomach yesterday, and when I came back, I couldn’t find you all."
"Not feeling well in the stomach?" Qiao Yu’s eyes flickered slightly, "You’re better now, right?"
Talking about this made Song Song’s face a little hot. Last night, he rubbed her stomach for a long time. Even though it was through clothes, she could distinctly feel the scorching temperature of his palm...
"...Yeah, I’m fine now, thanks."
"Glad to hear you’re okay."
With that, Qiao Yu glanced at the man behind Song Song, who was handsome with a style and charm entirely different from Xiao Jinghuai.
Xiao Jinghuai is a mature and stable man with a unique appeal, whereas this man is refined with an air of mystery and alluring when he lightly smiles.
"Song Song, who is this?"
"Oh, let me introduce you." Song Song pulled Qiao Yu over, "This is Qiao Yu, and this is Zhou Yunxian."
Qiao Yu looked at the contestant badge on the man’s chest and her smile widened slightly, "Are you also a contestant?"
"Yes."
Zhou Yunxian was not interested in this woman, not just for romantic prospects but even for ordinary friendship. Although she was very beautiful, the kind of alluring beauty she had wasn’t the kind he appreciated.
However, Little Fairy seemed to have a good attitude towards her, so he reluctantly went along.
Qiao Yu’s philosophy is not to make enemies recklessly before understanding all the details. Judging by this man’s demeanor, he was certainly special, possibly a rich heir from the Qingcheng City elite circles. It would be wise to make friends.
"Mr. Zhou, nice to meet you."
Zhou Yunxian’s lips curled into a faint smile and he nodded, not overly enthusiastic.
A notification broadcast announced the gathering, and the three of them went to the venue together.
Zhang Qingyun, wearing formal attire, stood on stage holding a list of the competition groups, smiling professionally, "Hello everyone, I’m Zhang Qingyun, Director Zhang, fully responsible for this competition. I’m glad to see you’ve successfully advanced to the second round. Precious time, I’m now announcing the list for the second round groups..."
"The second round won’t be a solo venture. It focuses on team cooperation. There are thirty of you, divided into ten groups, each with three members. We’ve already grouped you; now I’ll announce each group’s list."
"Group one: Xu Shi, Xu Ci, Xu Ge."
"Group two..."
Looking at the stage, Song Song’s mind went blank. Team cooperation, which she was worst at, who would be in her group?
"Alright, let me announce the last group’s list now. The contestants for group ten are Song Song, Qiao Yu, Zhou Yunxian..."
"These are the contestants for all ten groups. Please compete well and follow the rules. Thank you!"
After speaking, Zhang Qingyun stepped down from the stage, but as he lifted his eyes, he was met with a sharp gaze like a knife, "President Xiao, is there a problem?"
