The cat said, "I haven't thought about it yet. Since it's not related to the competition, I can just jump around randomly."

Chai Yu said, "Our show has such high ratings, and the finals will be broadcast live nationwide. Countless people will be watching. Do you dare to just jump around like that?"

The cat glanced at her. "Why are you afraid?"

Upon hearing this, Chai Yu's expression immediately turned sour. She turned away and stopped talking to Maomao. She had approached Maomao today because she thought Maomao had some talent for dancing, but this was too arrogant! Did she really think she was such a good dancer?

In the finals, she'll see how she "just jumps around"!

Guan You overheard their conversation and lost interest in talking to the cat.

Chai Yu advised, "Cat, the finals will be broadcast live, so you should spend more time thinking about what to dance."

The cat nodded to her.

Today marks the fifth episode of filming; the next episode will be the finale!

Today, we will eliminate eleven out of sixteen dancers to select the top five!

Coincidentally, Kang Jiao and Ji Yang entered the waiting area together today. There are three people in the waiting area, and two will be eliminated, leaving two.

The host said nervously, "They're both so dear to us, the mentors are going to be torn. But we have to give an answer. Teacher Cat, why don't you go first?"

In the previous episodes, the cat was always the one to make the final decision, but this time, she was the one who was called upon first.

All three participating celebrities nervously stared at the cat, with Kang Jiao and Ji Yang being even more nervous!

Kang Jiao had no confidence at all. She thought she had already handled her relationship with the cat well, but sometimes she couldn't figure out what the cat was doing... Just like last time, she verbally agreed, but didn't actually do it.

Ji Yang was already disheartened. He felt that he had no chance. He thought that Maomao must hate him. Why would she choose him now?

However, Ji Yang suddenly heard his name! He looked at the cat in disbelief.

The host patted him on the shoulder, "Haha, you heard right, Cat has chosen you to enter the top five!"

Ji Yang came to his senses and bowed deeply. He had mixed feelings; this vote had really surprised him!

Cat chose Ji Yang and another dancer, but not Kang Jiao!

Kang Jiao felt utterly disheartened. Did the cat still harbor resentment towards her?

"Then, let's hear what the other three mentors have to say."

Soon, the results came out: Kang Jiao got three votes, Ji Yang got three votes, and the other dancer got two votes. So, Kang Jiao and Ji Yang both made it to the finals!

At the end, Kang Jiao went to Maomao's dressing room and asked, seemingly puzzled, "Maomao, was my dancing really that bad? Why didn't you give me a chance during the two revival rounds?"

She really wanted to know! Was Jiu Maomao going against her?

However, Cat said in surprise, "You danced very well! You should understand, right? This is for the show. The audience just wants to see me eliminate you, right? I have a lot of confidence in you. Even if I don't choose you, the other mentors will, right?"

"Oh, I see. I'm relieved to hear that. Otherwise, I would have really doubted myself."

After Kang Jiao finished speaking, she left without lingering. She thought that Jiu Maomao was right; perhaps she was just doing it for the sake of the show. As for the fact that she had secretly given money to the mentor, she probably didn't know...

...

On the way back, Chen Doudou asked Maomao, puzzled, "Boss, you're such a kind person. You're so lenient with Kang Jiao and Ji Yang."

The cat glanced at Chen Doudou indifferently.

Lan Feng said, "Chen Doudou, this is not tolerance."

"ah?"

Lanfeng glanced at Maomao and said, "That's because Maomao doesn't take them seriously at all. The two of them are desperately climbing up, and what they consider incredibly precious is worthless in Maomao's eyes."

So even if they win the championship in "Dance Soul," it has nothing to do with the cat.

Chen Doudou seemed to understand a little, "Oh... I knew it, no wonder he's the boss! So generous!"

...

When I got back to the Jiu family home, it was past 1 a.m.

The cat quickly took a shower and lay on the bed to call Mu Jin.

However, a mechanical voice came through the receiver, informing her that the number she had dialed was not in service.

Cat stared at the screen, her brows furrowed. It had been almost half a month since their last call in the locker room, and she had been calling Mu Jin every day, but she still hadn't been able to get through.

She called Ye Mingshi, Gu Zeyi, and Nan Jue again, and it was the same for them all!

Ah Jin used to disappear frequently, and she never worried about it. However, last time Ah Jin suddenly apologized to her for no reason, and these past few days she has slowly started to worry.

She made another call, which rang a few times before someone answered.

"Hello? Who is it? Why are you making these harassing calls in the middle of the night?" The voice was drowsy but slightly irritable.

"Sister Tan, I have a question for you. Has Ajin and the others contacted you?"

Upon hearing that refreshing sound, Tan Zheng was instantly wide awake!

"Kitty? Why are you calling me so late? Jin'er and the others haven't contacted me. What's wrong?"

Cat said, "I can't get in touch with Ah Jin, and I'm worried about him."

Tan Zheng stirred and got out of bed. "This... don't worry, it's quite common, isn't it? There are places where cell phone signals don't work, and Jin Er didn't go alone. If something had happened, he would have notified us already."

"Go back to sleep, Sister Tan."

Tan Zheng glanced at her phone; the cat really hung up the phone decisively.

...

The next day, shortly after the cat got up, it received a phone call.

Her voice was warm and energetic, "Oh, my dear kitty! The air in the city is sweet when you're here! The driver you sent has picked me up. Shall we tour the city first, or have breakfast together?"
