During dinner, with a much calmer and less emotional atmosphere, I was eating with the <Listen To What I Say> group to celebrate they had all passed. It was my idea and, although they refused to celebrate because I didn't make it, I managed to convince them.

"I still don't get why we are doing this this when you haven't passed!" Said Bu Fan.

"Well, it's because I say so. Have you got a problem with that?" I cheekily told him and shoved a piece of chicken on his mouth for him to shut up.

The door of the canteen then opened and I turned around to see who it was.

I was expecting to see a trainee who was late or something like that but it was actually Yixing.

"What is PD doing here?" Xukun, who was sitting next to me wondered out loud.

"Who knows." Said Xiao Gui. "Wait, he's coming this way!"

As Xiao Gui said, he approached us, greeting some people on his way.

"Hello, boys. Hello, Lin." He said once he arrived at our table amd we all bowed. "Are you enjoying your meal?"

"Very much, thank you." Said Qin Fen.

"Well, I won't take up much time. I just wanted to talk to Lin for a second." He told the boys. "Do you mind if I borrow her? It won't be long."

I then stood up and followed him outside the canteen. 

"First of all, I'm sorry about the fact you were eliminated." He apologised.

"It's okay. I already knew it would happen." I reassured him.

"But still..." He said. "Anyways, that's not what I called you for. I wanted to talk to you about the future of <It's Okay> now that you are leaving."

"I can show it to one of the dancers before leaving. That's not a problem." I told him. "Or you can show it to them. All of the mentors know it, after all."

"There is no need to do that. Jieqiong and Cheng Xiao talked to the executive producer and told us you could stay to teach it to them. The thing is you are a surprise, so you will be living up in the mentor corridor after the mentor collaboration performance. You will eat with us too. They boys must think you left."

"Why is that so?" 

"Pure show, really. But, to be honest, I want to see their reactions when they see you once again after thinking you left." He admitted and we both laughed. "You can go back now. They should be waiting for you. See you!"

"See you, Yixing!" I said and went back inside.

I was really happy after the news and smiled widely on my way back to the table. People would think I was mad after that.

"I see something good happened!" Xikan said. "Can we know about it?"

"Not really!" I said with a smile, which confused them. 

"You and your secrets..." Xukun said and pouted.

"Oh, stop being cute! That won't work." I said and squeezed his cheeks.

***********************************

Two days later, we had to go back to rehearsing for the mentor collaboration stages. We only had two days left until the performance, so we all tried to work hard to make sure it all was perfect.

"Jin-ge." Zhou Rui suddenly said. "I was thinking that for Yanjun and Lin's part on the bridge, they could each be on one side of the stage instead of next to each other."

"I see... what were you thinking of?" MC Jin asked him curious.

"Maybe, they could each be on a platform on each side and each time they said a line, a light could shine just on their side and vice versa. Then, for the part when the rap speeds up, they could both join together in the middle."

"I like your idea!" MC Jin exclaimed excited. "I really like it. Let's try it now and see how it looks. Xiao Gui, Li Rang, take out your phones. We'll use the torch as stage lights."

"Said and done!" Said Xiao Gui as he and Li Rang went to fetch their phones.

"Yanjun, you stand on the viewer's right; Lin, you go on the viewer's left." He told us and we both went to our spots. "Bu Fan, please. Turn off the lights when I play the song."

We then all got to our spots and tried it. Xiao Gui and Li Rang made sure to turn the torch on and off on time as we rapped our parts. The feeling it gave was honestly amazing and I really enjoyed it.

"Woah..." Said Bu Fan as we finished and began clapping. "That was... something. It contrasts a lot with the rest of the performance. I love it!"

"Zhou Rui, thank you for such a great idea. What do you think guys? Should we keep it this way?" MC Jin asked us and we all nodded. "Then it's settled. Also, for the <I'm still on my way> at the end, you can both do a handshake before jumping down from the platform to go with the rest of us."

After that, we began rehearsing the whole thing back again for about an hour. We then decided to wrap it up.

"Tomorrow I am sorry but I won't be able to come. Lin, you are in charge. Inform me of how you are doing." MC Jin said and I nodded. "See you!"

After he left, we picked up everything and tidied up the room for the next day. Once we were done, we made our way back to the dorms.

"At what time tomorrow?" Asked Li Rang.

"As we don't have any dance to rehearse and it's basically just the rap, we can meet up at nine." I told them. "Don't worry, I'll wake you up."

"Thank you!" Said Xiao Gui. "See, Bu Fan? That's a great leader!"

"I'm going to kill you!" Said Bu Fan and pulled him in a head lock.

We then heard a loud bang and stopped playing around.

"Jieqiong!" Someone then yelled.

The sound came from the <Agent J> room, so we all hurried to see what happened.
