Winning is everything, that has always been the motto of Wang Yibo. And the new International Competition is a perfect opportunity for him to prove once again that he is the absolute winner.
But what if, his secret crush is one of his opponents?
Doe...
Friday morning has come and although we all got up early, we still had to hurry. Packing things, tidying and cleaning, showering, getting dressed and so on.
The driver came on time to pick us up. We were still so tired that we only slept for almost the whole return trip.
Like last week we were taken to the hotel and to our groups. Once again a farewell from Zhan and the hope that we can be together again after the show tonight.
But before Zhan and I went to our groups, we took a few minutes to ourselves and held each other in our arms and kissed. Because unfortunately he and I didn't get enough time together in the last few days, even though we were together every day.
After our goodbye we went to our groups. Seungyoun apparently had the same idea as me and even came to our manager and our people twenty minutes after me.
Our manager didn't look at us very pleased. And he started right away: "What we especially noticed about Yibo and Seungyoun is that you two don't worry about your performances or winning. You live for the day, you don't rehearse, you don't train and you only have eyes for the other two. This can't go on like this!"
We tried to explain to him calmly the situation of the last week, but the more we tried to explain it, the more angry he got. In the end, we were reproached and yelled at.
Well, in a way, he was right. We ourselves had also forgotten that we had to rehearse. And yes, winning is still important to me. That's why I agreed with him when he said I have to do more and be less distracted.
We had spent another two hours in the hotel's rehearsal room, then we had lunch and were driven to the new TV studio. This one is now bigger than the other and a new building.
We rehearsed on stage for our performance as a group, then Zhan and I rehearsed for our duet and had to split up again. A photo shoot followed, interview, you know how it is.
A staff member brought us to the stage, we did a sound check, he showed us where we were going to sit, where the cameras were and explained to us what questions Wang Han would ask. We rehearsed the whole thing once and were then brought back to our room.
In our room a table with sandwiches on a plate and a fresh salad for each of us was waiting for us. They also supplied hot and cold drinks. So no cafeteria this time.
One by one we were taken into the mask for make-up. Then Wang Han came to us, greeted us all, talked to us about the show and wanted to know if we still had any questions.
And then the waiting began. I wrote Zhan messages while we were rehearsing our song in our room again. But unfortunately Zhan didn't write back and so the waiting only got longer. It's only been a few hours, but I really miss Zhan.
At 8pm the show starts and the TV in our room starts automatically like last time. Tensely we watch the first groups at their performances. Now in my opinion they are no more rivals. Because it looks like these groups didn't spend much time with rehearsals and training either.
When it was finally XNINE's turn, the camera pointed directly at Zhan and he had a very serious look on. I wonder if he had stress with his manager again? I heard rumors that she had really messed up everyone in the group.
