The gif showed a young man with delicate features. His lips seemed to twitch upward as if he wanted to smile, but he couldn't manage it. In the next moment, his beautiful eyes turned red, yet he still forced a faint smile at the audience.

As soon as this gif appeared, the comments section was flooded with people asking for the original image:

"This gif is amazing! Please, I need the original!"

"I want a handsome little brother like this too, please!"

"I'm obsessed with Ye Zexi's looks! His face is unreal!"

"He's not just good-looking; his singing is also decent. I wonder when the advancement results will be announced. I'm boldly predicting Ye Zexi will make the top 10!"

The discussion around rankings only attracted more people.

"Tang Jing is also pretty good; he'll probably make the top 10 too."

"All the contestants on Times Idol are solid! This might turn out to be a great show; can't wait for the next episode."

...

Times Idol had a spectacular debut, with its peak viewership reaching tens of millions!

Not only did it dominate the trending topics, but the show also sparked widespread discussion across social media platforms.

Hashtags like #He Jinyun Joins Times Idol#, #Shan Zeyu Mentor#, and #Qu Xiao Dance Mentor# also trended, igniting heated conversations among fans and netizens.

Among the contestants, Ye Zexi was undoubtedly the most talked about.

The most obvious sign of this was the fact that Ye Zexi gained tens of thousands of followers on Weibo overnight.

Even Ye Zexi himself was surprised. The next morning, he received a call from Wei Leifei.

Wei Leifei, the original Ye Zexi's close friend, was just like him—a wealthy, idle second-generation heir.

As soon as the call connected, Wei Leifei's loud voice echoed through the phone: "Ye Zexi, you're incredible! I always thought you were just going to slack off on the show, but you really made a name for yourself! My mom even called me this morning saying she's going to have her company employees vote for you!"

Ye Zexi had initially been worried that he might slip up while talking to Wei Leifei, but hearing his usual tone now, he relaxed a bit. "No need to go through that trouble. I wasn't planning on—"

"By the way, did you really say on the live stream yesterday that you're done chasing Tang Jing? For real?" Wei Leifei cut him off.

Ye Zexi let out a helpless laugh and responded, "Yeah, it's true."

Wei Leifei replied enthusiastically, "No worries, bro! There are millions of men out there. If one doesn't make you happy, you can change every day! I told you a long time ago that Tang Jing wasn't right for you. I'll push your WeChat to a few quality 'alpha' guys, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Ye Zexi's eyebrow twitched. "Hey, wait a minute, I—"

Before Ye Zexi could finish, Wei Leifei had already hung up.

The words got stuck in Ye Zexi's throat. He really wanted to clarify that he himself was an alpha and didn't need anyone introducing alphas to him!

Maybe some cute "omegas" instead.

As that thought crossed his mind, Ye Zexi suddenly realized—wasn't there already someone fitting that description nearby?

He couldn't help but smile, his face growing slightly warm, and his grin widened further. Just as he was about to cover his face to hide a shy grin, the light in front of him dimmed.
