King of Melons
Yi Jingchen dragged an 18-inch suitcase and strode into the "Super Idol" dormitory building with his long legs.
When he was interning at a news station, Yi Jingchen often got opportunities to go out for interviews, flying all over the country, and sometimes even abroad.
Therefore, he developed the good habit of packing less early on.
Hearing that "Super Idol" provides uniforms and daily necessities, Yi Jingchen only brought simple necessities, barely filling up half a suitcase.
Half of the box is left, filled with interview tools that may be used.
As soon as I pushed open the glass door of the dormitory building, I saw the dormitory auntie with her hands on her hips, loudly announcing the dormitory rules to this group of young boys.
"Remember! There are live cameras in the hallways and dormitories. The audience could see you at any time. Please be mindful of your words and actions!"
"Especially note: sleeping naked in the dormitories is not allowed! You are not allowed to take off your pants in front of the live camera, and you are not allowed to be naked in public areas!"
Yi Jingchen thought idly:
[There is a reason behind every outrageous rule.]
[I really want to know, what interesting things happened in the dormitory building in the past?]
When he looked up, he found that the eyes of the people around him were all on him.
Obviously, everyone wants to know too!
The dormitory manager was afraid that they would ask too many questions, so she quickly changed the subject.
"Now I'll assign you dormitories." The dorm manager spat and flipped open the dormitory arrangement chart. "The dormitory building has six floors in total. The first floor we're standing on now is the public living area. Above the second floor, there are dormitories for classes A, B, C, D, and F, in that order."
"The Class A dormitory is a double room and is fully equipped."
“The Class B dormitory has three people in a room and there is no separate practice room in the dormitory.
"Class C's dormitory has four people and no private practice room or laundry room."
"The D-class dormitory has six people in a room. There's no practice room, laundry room, or single locker."
"The eight-person dormitory in Class F has none of the other rooms..."
“There’s no air conditioning.”
[No, no, room, for, tune!]
[Auntie, how can you, with a mouth that's 37 degrees Celsius, say such cold words?]
The trainees who unfortunately received an F all looked dizzy.
The recording base of "Super Idol" is located in a northern city. The weather in January is freezing cold, which is the coldest time of the year.
There is no air conditioning in the dormitory, which is almost like asking for their lives.
"Auntie, are you kidding me?"
“Without air conditioning, how can we sleep at night?”
"Yes, I have been weak since I was a child..."
"Okay, okay, don't give me a sympathetic ear." Auntie said sternly, pointing to the warehouse next to her. "Class F, wait a minute to line up for an electric blanket."
The trainee who played the victim: “…”
Yi Jingchen smiled.
[You are not skilled in the business of selling misery~]
[Eight-person room with electric blankets, at least better than a university dormitory]
[…Just be content with an electric blanket. Our school not only has no heating, but using one trips the circuit breaker.]
[Who is spying on my life? You have crossed the line! ]
Am I the only one who thinks the production team is a bit too much? The trainees in Class F are also human beings. Why are they being treated differently?
[Are you serious? Isn't the essence of talent shows to discriminate based on popularity?]
[I want to live in a nice dormitory, have warm air, and climb up the ratings when the theme song is rated again]
I understand the production team's arrangement, but is someone who's terrible at both singing and dancing qualified to be in Class A? @易景辰
[Don't curse the Melon King!!! The Melon Eaters' happiness today is all due to the Melon King!]
[+1, based on the melons Yi Jingchen contributed, let alone living in the Class A dormitory, he could even shit on the director's head.]
Yi Jingchen: ...
[I'm not such an uncultured college student, so I declined.]
There are five dormitories on the second floor where Class A's dormitory is located, and each room can accommodate up to two trainees.
As of now, a total of six players have received A grade.
Among them, Yi Jingchen only knew Mu Gan.
Instead of settling with a stranger whose character is yet to be determined, it is better to choose a roommate who is relatively familiar and has no bad intentions.
So, the two Wangzai milk lovers hit it off and decided to move into the same dormitory.
Yi Jingchen dragged the 18-inch suitcase into the dormitory and stuffed his spare underwear into the closet.
Turning back, I found Mu Gan squatting next to the locker, like a hamster hoarding food, constantly stuffing Wangzai milk, Wangzai milk, and Wangzai milk into the locker...
Yi Jingchen looked down and found that his feet were surrounded by Wangzai Milk, leaving him with nowhere to stand.
The little boy printed on the bottle gave him a wise look.
“…”
[Mu Gan, how on earth did you manage to fit so much Wangzai milk into those two ordinary suitcases?]
Yi Jingchen made a big circle, avoiding the milk cans on the ground, and came up to ask, "Do you need my help?"
"No, I'm used to sorting things out myself." Mu Gan casually tossed him a can of milk, lowered his head, and looked awkwardly at the bottles and jars at his feet. He tried to discuss with Yi Jingchen, "How about you go out for a walk?"
Yi Jingchen: ...
[Well, this house can no longer accommodate me.]
Yi Jingchen left the dormitory and walked around Building A.
The structures of the Class A dormitories are similar, and I don’t know the people inside very well, so there’s nothing much to see.
He climbed up the stairs and came to the B class dormitory area.
The occupancy rate of the Class B dormitory was very low, and Yi Jingchen barely knew Lu Ju.
He thought about the "filter" Luju had for him, and suddenly felt guilty, so he didn't rush forward to say hello.
He turned around and continued to go up, sneaking into the C class dormitory area quietly.
I thought the situation in Class C should be similar to that in Class B.
But as soon as he walked up the stairs, he was stopped by an "acquaintance".
"Hi, Yi Jingchen."
Yi Jingchen looked in the direction of the sound and saw Zhong Zihan running towards him.
[That was close! I almost forgot his name, but luckily he had a name tag on him!]
Zhong Zihan ran up to him, looking enthusiastic, "Did you come upstairs just to see me?"
Yi Jingchen: ???
[Why? Do you have a big face?]
Zhong Zihan's expression twisted for a moment, and he secretly glanced at the lens to find the best shooting angle. "What a pity, we had agreed to live in the same dormitory."
Yi Jingchen thought his memory was confused and asked casually, "When did you make the appointment?"
"Just..." Zhong Zihan hesitated and couldn't answer.
Yi Jingchen got the answer.
[Oh, so your agent reminded you that I was mentioned quite a lot today. I got an A on my debut performance, so I'm sure there will be a wave of popularity. He asked me to build a good relationship with you.]
Among the audience watching the live broadcast, there were originally a few fans of Zhong Zihan, who excitedly posted:
"Teacher, my son Zihan has made a friend!"
"Teacher, my son Zihan pays special attention to his teammates."
'Teacher, my Zi Han...'
At this moment, the parents who were showing off 'his Zi Han' fell silent at the same time.
Zhong Zihan thought that he was the only one who could hear Yi Jingchen's inner thoughts, and he was still trying to smooth things over in a high-sounding manner, vaguely saying that it was what they had agreed upon before going on stage.
"Oh, we agreed on that before we went on stage." Yi Jingchen nodded and asked with a suppressed smile, "Then why didn't you look for He Yin? We're all teammates, didn't you make an agreement with him?"
"He, He Yin?" Zhong Zihan frowned, then quickly put on a forced smile, "I, I almost forgot."
[No, you didn't forget!]
[Because the company arranged for you two to be a couple, but neither of you wanted to play the supporting role. So you sent negative articles to each other and threw mud.]
[The last time he didn't photoshop the ugly picture, it was you who bought it. He Yin was so angry that he bought the bad copy of your receding hairline.]
[You two hate each other so much, yet the company arranges for you to be a couple, and you have to show off your affection in front of the camera. If you lived in the same dorm, you'd be disgusted to death by each other.]
Yi Jingchen poured out his thoughts crazily, causing Zhong Zihan's face to become increasingly worse. He just wanted to find an excuse to slip away quickly.
"I, I'd better go ask He Yin."
[What the hell? Big brother, you're doing Sichuan Opera face-changing here.]
[Teacher, his Zihan is really loved by his teammates~]
[…Please, stop cueing this meme. I stopped being a fan 30 seconds ago.]
[So shameful, +1 record for star-chasing]
[Don't you think Yi Jingchen is a bit immoral? ]
[Who cares? I love watching it anyway]
【Love to watch +1】
"Do you know where He Yin is? Should I go with you to find him?"
Yi Jingchen, eager to watch the fun, forced himself to find He Yin for Zhong Zihan and shouted to him from afar, "He Yin, Zhong Zihan wants to live in the same dormitory with you. Teammates can take care of each other~"
The Guagua system is amazing.
Host, you are so wicked!
He Yin rolled his eyes and cursed out a stream of swear words from between his teeth.
When facing Zhong Zihan, he put on a fake business expression.
"Great! I'm worried about finding a suitable roommate. It's great that you're willing to live with me."
"Is that so?" Zhong Zihan's smile was very forced.
I originally planned to find a random excuse to slip away after Yi Jingchen left.
He never expected that Yi Jingchen would be so free to accompany him all the way to find He Yin.
He Yin shamelessly agreed again.
Zhong Zihan cursed softly, then turned to He Yin with a different expression, "Okay, I see there's room in your dormitory, I'll move my luggage over."
"Do you have a lot of luggage? Let me help you move it!" He Yin said enthusiastically, and his eyes almost rolled to the back of his head.
Yi Jingchen held back his laughter the whole time. He watched Zhong Zihan and He Yin moving their luggage together, with three parts of sympathy and two parts of pity on his face.
——And 95 points for gloating.
Let's congratulate the newlyweds and send them off to the bridal chamber!
[A wicked and funny person won't feel sorry for Gigi, he'll just laugh!]
[Congratulations to Zhong Zihan and He Yin on their wedding. I join Wubai.]
[Hahahaha! Why didn't I realize before that Yi Jingchen is such a devil?]
If the Melon King is not a bad person, how could he bring me so many big and sweet melons?
I'm really looking forward to Zhong Zihan and He Yin's daily life in the dormitory.
[I am more looking forward to tomorrow's recording, is there any new news?]
[Want to eat melons? It's easy! Follow the Melon King and you'll be full of melons!!!]
