"Our guest of honor has arrived. Please welcome him with anticipation."
As soon as the director finished speaking, the doorbell rang.
"I'll go open the door." Wen Miao stood up and walked towards the door, "Wow!"
Hearing Wen Miao's exclamation, several people turned around.
"It's Wen Yu!"
"Hey, are the supporting guests fixed?"
"Let's welcome Wen Yu." The director took the lead in clapping twice.
Wen Yu's appearance was quite surprising. They all thought that the supporting guests would be changed every episode, but Lu Wenxing was not too surprised. He heard from Gu Yanshen last night that the supporting guests were changed from being changed every one episode to being changed every two episodes, and the same was true for the recording location.
The recording location for the third episode has not yet been determined, but it will not be in G City.
"Hey, why do you seem disappointed to see me?" Wen Yu said half-jokingly as he looked at the people with surprised expressions.
"Welcome, Xiao Wen." Song Jiajia clapped her hands along with the director and said to Wen Yu. "Xiao Wen, it's boring to be in the same group with Brother Shen for two episodes. Do you want to join our group?"
Song Jiajia tried to poach players. In her opinion, the more people there were in the evening competition, the greater the chance of winning.
"The fight for members has begun!" Seeing that Song Jiajia was not polite, Li Xiangming also invited Wen Yu to form a team, "Come to our team, the two brothers will help you win without any effort."
"I'm looking forward to being in a group with Xingxing." Wen Yu had a smile in his eyes. "I felt sorry that Xingxing was sick and couldn't be my partner in the last episode. I didn't expect to be invited by the program team again this time. I must cherish this opportunity."
When Lu Wenxing heard Wen Yu mention his name, he turned his gaze to Wen Yu. Their eyes met and Wen Yu smiled warmly.
"The stars are very popular."
"Xiao Wen and Xing Xing are friends, so of course their relationship is better."
Song Jiajia couldn't help but stir up trouble when he was free. He turned around and asked Lu Wenxing, "Xingxing, who would you rather partner with, Wen Yu or Brother Shen?"
Lu Wenxing: “…They are both my partners now.”
Song Jiajia would not listen to his official answer. "I want to be in a team with you, but Brother Shen disagrees. I want to invite Wen Yu to join the team, but Wen Yu wants to be with you. If you can only choose one person between Brother Shen and Wen Yu, who would you choose?"
"Wow! Sister Jiajia asked a very bold question."
Hearing Song Jiajia's question, Gu Yanshen raised his head and looked at Lu Wenxing. He knew that Lu Wenxing would not fall into the trap dug by Song Jiajia, but he was also very curious about what Lu Wenxing would say.
Facing the gazes of several people, Lu Wenxing felt no psychological burden and said, "I choose Teacher Gu."
When the clear voice fell, everyone present was stunned, and Gu Yanshen was also a little surprised.
He thought Lu Wenxing would give a compromise answer, or not give a direct answer, but he didn't expect Lu Wenxing to answer so directly.
"Why?" Song Jiajia asked again.
"Because if it weren't for Teacher Gu, I wouldn't have the chance to be on this show."
"Oh~" Song Jiajia deliberately dragged out the last word. The director was not afraid of making trouble and passed the ball to Lu Wenxing again, "Just because of gratitude?"
This question is difficult to answer because no matter whether you answer it or not, it is ambiguous.
"I really have to thank Teacher Gu for not only giving Xingxing a chance, but also giving me one."
The person who spoke was Wen Yu. He inserted his words cleverly, expressing his gratitude while also helping Lu Wenxing out of trouble and diverting everyone's attention away from Lu Wenxing.
Lu Wenxing didn't expect Wen Yu to help him. He was a little surprised. He turned around and saw Wen Yu smiling at him.
"It seems that Xiao Wen and Xing Xing have a really good relationship. He is so eager to help Xing Xing out."
"Xiao Wen said last time that he and Xingxing are friends."
"It's great that good friends can still hold hands and perform together."

MY Music Bar.
“There are so many people today.”
Chen Li received the confirmed news of her promotion today, and she couldn't wait to go to the bar with her bestie to celebrate after work.
"Are there three young ladies?"
"Yes." Chen Li responded and received a bouquet of roses from the waiter.
"There is a competition in the store today. You can give roses to your favorite singer."
"Is it a competition between singers?"
"Yes." The waiter handed everyone a rose. "Today there will be three groups of contestants competing. The rose in the lady's hand represents a vote. Giving a rose to your favorite singer can help them get a point."
Chen Li often comes to this bar with her bestie. This is her first time to see a PK competition, and she became interested after listening to it.
She pulled her bestie inside and said, "Let's sit in the front. Maybe we can see some handsome guys."
At 9:30 in the evening, more and more customers came to MY Bar.
According to the requirements of the program team, one person from each group will perform on stage and the other will dress up as a waiter.
Lu Wenxing's group has the help of Wen Yu, and the two of them decide to perform on stage together. Gu Yanshen chooses to play the role of a waiter to canvass for votes.
There are also different scoring criteria for waiters. They all carry scoring machines with them, and the guests they have served can give them scores. The final score is added together with the votes of teammates in the same group, and the group with the highest score wins.
Today's customers were not invited by the program crew, but were indeed guests of the bar. In order to hide their identities, all the staff of the bar wore masks today, covering half of their faces.
In addition, the lighting in the bar is dim and the music is loud, so it is not easy to be recognized by customers.
Lu Wenxing was the last one to go on stage. He was not in a hurry to prepare and had time to go around the venue to find Gu Yanshen.
He walked around the guest area but didn't see Gu Yanshen dressed as a waiter. Glancing at the waiters in uniform and wearing the same masks, Lu Wenxing wondered if he had missed him.
"Xiao Zhen said she's at the bar. Let's go over there. There's a new bartender who's so handsome!"
"Isn't he wearing a mask? Can you tell if he's handsome or not?"
"Xiao Zhen just took a video for me. She looks so elegant and looks so handsome when mixing drinks!"
When Lu Wenxing heard this, he walked towards the bar as if possessed. Before he got there, he saw a circle of people gathered at the bar.
There were three waiters standing in the middle, and Lu Wenxing recognized Gu Yanshen at a glance.
He is tall and has an outstanding temperament. Even if half of his face is covered, his handsome features can still be seen.
His slender knuckles clasped the crystal wine glass, and the wine in the glass stuck tightly to the wall of the glass. As Gu Yanshen moved, the cocktail swayed gently.
When Lu Wenxing walked in, he heard a girl covering her cheek and asked shyly, "Can you make me a drink too?"
"Sure, what would you like to drink?"
"I want a glass of 'I'm Not Going Home Tonight'."
Gu Yanshen's voice was deep and mellow, "This one has a high alcohol content, I don't recommend ordering it."
The girl took her friend's hand and whispered, "No, it's okay. I don't drink. I just want to see you mix this."
Gu Yanshen didn't say anything and poured four base liquors into the cups.
Several people at the scene had already taken out their phones to start recording videos. The girl didn’t recognize the wine, but she just thought it looked impressive.
Lu Wenxing worked part-time in a bar, so he recognized the mixed base liquors at a glance. They were whiskey, tequila, white rum and Galliano, and the alcohol content of each liquor was over 40 degrees.
The alcohol content of 'I'm Not Going Home Tonight' is at least 60 or 70 degrees. Not to mention girls, even boys will not be able to go home tonight if they drink it.
But what surprised Lu Wenxing was not that Gu Yanshen could mix cocktails. It was that Gu Yanshen did not need to use a measuring cup to mix cocktails, but poured directly into the wine glass, which required very precise estimation.
After mixing the base liquor, Gu Yanshen picked up the lighter and lit a circle around the wall of the glass. He tilted the liquor in the short-footed glass into the cocktail glass, and the blue flame flowed into the glass along with the base liquor.
There was a blue-orange flame dancing on the rim of the cup, causing the girls at the scene to scream in surprise.
Gu Yanshen did not push the wine glass to the girl, but placed it on the bar and took a photo of them.
Seeing Lu Wenxing coming over, Gu Yanshen raised his eyelids and looked straight at him, "What do you want to drink?"
Lu Wenxing didn't have to pretend to be a waiter. He was wearing a suit for the performance on stage, and had the same mask on his face as Gu Yanshen, like a little prince attending a masquerade ball.
Hearing Gu Yanshen's question, Lu Wenxing raised the corners of his lips and said in a clear voice, "Brother bartender, I'm going to participate in the competition and I'm so nervous. Is there any wine that can relieve my nervousness?"
Inspired by the atmosphere at the scene, Lu Wenxing blurted out this.
Gu Yanshen paused for a moment, then looked away?
"Hold on."
Several girls standing in front of the bar asked him excitedly, "Are you also a contestant in today's competition?"
"Yes, I'm number three. If you like my performance, remember to give me the rose in your hand."
Several girls chatted and laughed, and surrounded Lu Wenxing and asked, "Brother, do you have a girlfriend? Can you add WeChat? I will give you a rose."
The girl teased Lu Wenxing half-jokingly.
"Okay." It was Gu Yanshen's voice. He interrupted the girls' questions and pushed the wine glass to Lu Wenxing. "Try it?"
"good."
Lu Wenxing didn't even ask what kind of wine it was. He took the glass and put it into his mouth. The fruity aroma was mixed with a hint of alcohol.
"not bad."
Lu Wenxing drank the small cocktail in one gulp and said to Gu Yanshen, "Thank you. Don't forget to watch your teammates' performance later."
"I won't forget."
The girl next to him also encouraged Lu Wenxing, "We will vote for you, come on, little brother!"
"Thank you, young lady."
"I'll vote for you, too."
"And me."
Before Lu Wenxing even went on stage or started canvassing for votes, he had already won over several customers in front of the bar.
Gu Yanshen couldn't help but glance at Lu Wenxing. The director had told him that Lu Wenxing was very popular with the audience, and it was undeniable that this was indeed the case.
Even without him doing anything, he could tip the balance in people's hearts.
"I'm leaving first. You promised to vote for me. I have this bartender as my witness. You can't cheat!"
Before Lu Wenxing left, he cueed Gu Yanshen, and the girls laughed and agreed readily.
Li Xiangming was the first to go on stage. His unique voice caused the patrons in the venue to applaud and cheer as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Why do I feel like this voice is like Li Xiangming?"
"I'm a fan of Li Xiangming. I definitely won't mistake his voice. It really is similar!"
"That's impossible. How could Li Xiangming be a resident singer in a bar? He must be imitating Li Xiangming's voice."
"Ah, it really seems like I'm listening to my brother's concert."
Li Xiangming's voice is actually not easy to imitate. His voice is ethereal yet emotional, and can especially touch the heart of people.
When the song ended, the audience was stunned, and many of them wanted him to sing another one.
"I'm sorry, today is a competition, and there are other contestants coming up. If you like me, don't be stingy with the roses in your hands."
The second person to come on stage was Wen Miao. She wore a mask and a sailor suit, causing the audience to scream.
Just as Lu Wenxing knew, Wen Miao’s high notes were clear and recognizable, leaving a lasting impression.
The last ones to perform were Lu Wenxing and Wen Yu. They were performing together and they found a practice room to rehearse in the afternoon.
The show started with a light and lazy prelude, and Wen Yu walked onto the stage in a suit, while Lu Wenxing came up from the other side of the stage stairs.
The two men walked in unison, even wearing identical suits with a red rose in the top pocket of their clothes.
When the first line of lyrics was sung, the audience was amazed.
Lu Wenxing's voice is clean and clear, with a bit of lazy and casualness that fits the style of the song.
They raised their hands and rubbed their thumbs across their lower lips. The bright red lips looked like they had been stained with red wine, and looked even more charming under the light.
…
When the song ended, Lu Wenxing put his index finger to his lips and blew a kiss amid the screams.
“Ahhhhhhhhh!!!”
“Oh wow~”
The audience sitting in the front row stood up and waved their glow sticks, and the atmosphere was completely aroused.
Lu Wenxing put his arm around Wen Yu's shoulder, and the two exchanged positions. Holding the microphone in their hands, they danced and sang at the same time. Their voices were not affected by their movements, and the two of them cooperated well with each other.
The last spin, facing the audience, freezes the movement.
After the performance, Lu Wenxing took out the rose from his pocket, kissed one of the petals gently, and walked to the front of the stage.
He wants to give away the rose in his hand.
"Little brother, give it to me!!!"
"I want it, I want it!! Look here, little brother."
"Ahhhhhhh, over here, over here, little brother, take care of me!"
As Lu Wenxing stretched out his hand, a slender hand passed over the heads of several girls and took the rose from Lu Wenxing's hand.
His thumb accidentally brushed against Lu Wenxing's little finger, and they were both stunned.
Gu Yanshen had passed the people in front of him and stood closest to Lu Wenxing. In his hand was the rose that Lu Wenxing had kissed. There was still some body temperature on the flower stem, and the fragrance of the rose wafted into the air.
The next second, a deep voice cut through the noise at the scene and hit Lu Wenxing's eardrum heavily.
"Thank you. I like it very much."
