Meanwhile, after separating from her group, Qu Qingdai slowly entered the studio specially prepared by the directors for the variety show. She stood quietly inside, her gaze slowly scanning her surroundings. Everything in the studio felt both familiar and unfamiliar. She couldn't help but recall her past life, where she had endured numerous setbacks in the first two episodes and then underperformed in the third, ultimately leading to her failure. These three consecutive failures had filled both the show's cast and the online community with disgust.
To make matters worse, Jiang Baizhi also took over her work, but she had no way to explain it. Instead, everyone thought she was a vicious real daughter who was jealous of her adopted daughter. This became the beginning of her tragic life. However, in this life, she had already determined what the theme of this painting would be before participating in the variety show. This can be regarded as a special "plug-in" she had after her rebirth, which allowed her to make adequate preparations in advance.
At this moment, Qu Qingdai picked up the paintbrush and danced gently on the drawing paper. She depicted the exquisite ideas in her mind on the drawing paper bit by bit. The troubles of her previous life gradually dissipated in her mind at this moment. There was only the painting in front of her in her eyes. She was completely immersed in the world of painting, forgetting the passage of time, forgetting all the troubles and sorrows, and just painting with concentration and care, as if the whole world was left with only her, the paintbrush in her hand, and the painting that was about to be born.
"Knock, knock, knock... knock, knock, knock..." A series of crisp and rhythmic knocks on the door suddenly sounded, breaking Qu Qingdai's concentrated thoughts. She put down her paintbrush, slowly stood up, and walked towards the door.
When she opened the door, Chao Yan and Bai Ren were standing outside. Chao Yan was smiling, while Bai Ren looked carefree.
"Qingdai, we came to have dinner with you. How is your painting going?" Bai Ren said casually with a hint of concern in his voice.
"Well... I've already drawn a part of it, and I've also thought of the general idea." Qu Qingdai responded softly, with a hint of calmness in her voice.
"Sure, but is there enough time?" Chaoyan looked at Qu Qingdai and asked with curiosity in her eyes.
"It's definitely in time, don't worry!" Qu Qingdai smiled slightly, speaking calmly but firmly. Then, she raised her head slightly, looked at Chao Yan and Bai Ren, and asked, "How's the exhibition hall being arranged?"
"We've basically finished decorating our showroom," Bai Ren said excitedly. "Tomorrow, Chao Yan and I plan to make some DIY decorations to decorate the showroom. While funds are limited, we can buy plenty of DIY materials. We're going to create something unique with our own hands!"
"That's really great! You guys are really creative!" Qu Qingdai praised sincerely. Thinking back to her past life, although Bai Ren and Chao Yan were in the same group as her, she wasn't very popular back then due to her failures in the first two rounds. This led to Chao Yan and Bai Ren not paying enough attention to the exhibition hall's layout, resulting in the overall effect being less than ideal. In this life, under her influence, Chao Yan and Bai Ren unexpectedly had completely different ideas from their past life, which made her look forward to this competition.
"Hahaha, of course. The combination of Chaoyan and I is absolutely invincible! Of course, now we have you, Qingdai, the three of us are invincible!" Bai Ren said proudly.
"Go away! Stop flattering yourself!" Chao Yan said jokingly. "By the way, Qingdai, when are you going to ship the remaining nine paintings over?"
"Well, I plan to call tonight and ask my family to send it over after the live broadcast ends tomorrow. Then we will put the paintings together in the exhibition hall. After all, the morning of the third day is the time for display and evaluation. I'm worried that it will be too late if we move them too early on the third day." Qu Qingdai said after serious consideration.
"This arrangement is fine. Bai Ren and I will complete the final decoration tomorrow, and then wait for your painting to arrive!" Chao Yan said with a smile.
"Of course no problem. My theme painting will be completed smoothly tomorrow. Then we can place these paintings in the most suitable display locations together!" Qu Qingdai said happily with a smile on her face.
"Hahaha, it's really perfect when you think about it this way! The three of us combined will definitely be invincible!" Bai Ren started to suffer from his second-year syndrome again, talking and gesticulating.
"Hahaha, stop being so immature. Let's go and have dinner!" Chaoyan couldn't help but laugh when she saw Bairen's appearance.
"Let's go, let's eat!" Bai Ren also joined in the fun.
"Let's go and have dinner!" Qu Qingdai was infected by their fun and responded.
"Yeah!" Everyone walked towards the restaurant together.

Elsewhere, in Jiang Baizhi's studio, she was quietly standing in front of her drawing board, concentrating on painting her own work. Her calm demeanor gave no hint of any pressure from the competition.
Jiang Baizhi gently moved her brush, her thoughts drifting far away. She was pondering her next steps. This plan, which she had actually been planning since she entered the book, was crucial to her. She knew clearly that if it succeeded, it would completely change her fate.
In the book, the original heroine is Qu Qingdai. She was accepted as a disciple by Tao Huaixi thanks to a painting competition in the third episode of a variety show, thus establishing connections with the Beijing circle and rising rapidly from then on. All these changes were caused by a few paintings drawn by the heroine a few years ago. The book once described that the heroine displayed the paintings she had drawn a few years ago in the exhibition hall during a variety show, which attracted the attention of Mr. Tao Huaixi. Although the style and technique of those paintings were not mature enough, and even a little immature, each of them depicted the most ordinary life of ordinary people. That feeling of returning to nature is what many current painters lack. This deeply touched Tao Huaixi's heart and reminded him of his original intention of painting when he was young. For this reason, during the live broadcast, he directly expressed his desire to accept the heroine as his apprentice, which completely changed the heroine's life.
