CHAPTER 201: CHAPTER 194: THERE’S ALWAYS SOMETHING TO GIVE UP

Zhao Juke understood what they were thinking, and her face radiated a kind of devout light: "I love you all."

Long Zitao also stood up at this moment:

"After hearing what you said just now, I feel truly touched."

"In a team, if everyone can face their teammates with such an attitude, I believe such a group will last a very, very long time."

"This way, even if the opportunity is given to someone else, that person will feel grateful and do their utmost to fulfill the dream for others."

Long Zitao’s words made Chen Luoyan and the other two burst into tears.

Zhao Juke felt this was the hardest moment of her life. After hesitating for a long time, she walked behind Yang Han.

When she hugged the latter, both of their tears came rushing out almost simultaneously.

Immediately, the four of them embraced each other.

Who says there’s no true friendship among girls? Sometimes, there really is a group of "silly girls" gathering together, doing silly things.

"I want to say one more thing. Here, it’s not Yang Han following me, but me following Yang Han. Her singing and dancing are excellent. Whenever I don’t know how, it’s her teaching me." Zhao Juke continued, now having regained her composure.

Long Zitao’s eyes also welled up with tears; the emotions of these girls were genuine.

"You are all amazing. You are true comrades."

Zhao Juke led Yang Han back to the Pyramid, while Wang Yumeng returned to the elimination zone. Zhang Yuxin walked over and gave her a big hug, the latter understanding her teammate.

"Next, the player exercising the reversal power is the thumbs-up queen of Ye Yuwei’s team, Ye Yuwei."

The latter heard Long Zitao call her name and slowly stood up from her seat.

Everyone’s eyes focused on her.

Lu Bingbing’s eyes flashed with a hint of jealous anger; she never expected this "beaten drum" in Hanoi to shine here.

Chen Yinghan was also observing the latter.

She noticed Ye Yuwei’s legs were incredibly beautiful. Dancers usually have thickened legs with muscles bulging, which can appear unattractive unless they are naturally long-legged with low fat.

Ye Yuwei happened to be one in a million in this regard.

Moreover, her figure was sensational, and her face was no less exquisite than her own.

It could be said she was like a heavenly gift of beauty brought to the mortal world.

Ni Chunshu and Wang Na stepped forward simultaneously.

Li Shihan and Lin Jiayi looked on—one with anticipation, the other with envy—at their former teammate.

Ni Chunshu was very confident at this moment; her singing and dancing skills surpassed Wang Na’s, and she was also obedient, whereas Wang Na secretly caused trouble for Ye Yuwei.

Although Wang Na was smiling now, it was a forced smile. However, it wasn’t regret for causing trouble but regret for not creating bigger problems.

"You are all uniquely special. The palm and the back of the hand are both flesh, and choosing between the two is truly difficult." Ye Yuwei said softly, her tone carrying a trace of sorrow.

"Please tell me the reasons why you want to stay!"

Wang Na was the first to speak, her voice slightly sarcastic:

"This show truly is full of endless surprises and unexpected turns,"

"I never thought my fate would be controlled by others. Before this, I even fought with Chunshu over the rap segment."

Her words made Ni Chunshu smile awkwardly. During that incident, Ye Yuwei had sided with her.

"My attitude remains the same as last time. I want to fight to stay on this stage, and I believe our captain will make her own choice. Regardless of the result, I will accept it."

Wang Na’s words made other girls in Ye Yuwei’s group very uncomfortable. What was her intention in saying this? Was she provoking Ye Yuwei?

Ni Chunshu took the microphone, wanting to speak but hesitating. Wang Na’s words just now had stoked a fire of anger in her. Since the grouping began, this dark-skinned, plump woman had been butting heads with her.

"Actually, when Wang Na and I fought over the rap segment, I was always thinking about one thing."

"Do you want others to think your fighting spirit is justified?"

"Or do you want others to think, although you wish to fight for what you want, you’re too afraid of being dissed and dare not fight at all."

"After weighing it, I chose to fight. I don’t want to wrong myself."

"So, this time, I still want to fight for this opportunity."

Ye Yuwei sighed internally as she listened to Ni Chunshu. Her emotional intelligence was truly low.

In reality, Wang Na’s earlier words had already crossed a line.

Fighting internally within the team should never be brought to the surface.

The first three episodes, including the VIP version, did not reveal clips of their disputes over lyrics and choreography. Yet Wang Na brought it up here, clearly with ulterior motives.

If Ni Chunshu could now showcase her commitment to the group, to the stage, and to presenting their best side to the audience, rather than only thinking of herself, she would win for sure.

Ye Yuwei sighed internally again, showing regret on her face. She truly didn’t want to choose Wang Na, but if she didn’t and chose the self-centered Ni Chunshu instead,

she feared she’d be caught in a storm of public opinion, worried that the show’s producers would maliciously edit the footage of her supporting Ni Chunshu.

Long Zitao was also watching the girl gradually making her choice.

His palms were sweaty; he knew the attitude of the program producers—or of Galaxy—toward Ye Yuwei.

Yet at this moment, he couldn’t warn her. He understood that Ye Yuwei’s current high position was granted by the producers only so they could crush her harder later.

Amidst everyone’s gaze, Ye Yuwei lightly tapped Wang Na on the back.

Wang Na, whose surface appeared calm but whose heart was racing, almost collapsed in that instant.

Her plan worked. Ye Yuwei eventually made the choice that was most advantageous to her.

She had seen clearly long ago that this girl, beautiful like an angel on the outside, was just like her—living solely for herself.

She turned around and embraced Ye Yuwei tearfully: "Thank you, thank you so much!"

At the side, Ni Chunshu stood dumbfounded, staring at Ye Yuwei in disbelief. Back in the grouping phase, she had been a staunch supporter of Ye Yuwei.

Although this support was mostly rooted in her dislike for Wang Na.

Ye Yuwei could only look at her apologetically. Her experiences in Galaxy had taught her that, if she didn’t abandon some things at critical moments, if she couldn’t harden her heart, she would ultimately achieve nothing.

She had no way out anymore; either she made it big through this show or went out and found a humble job. If she was lucky, maybe she’d marry a decent man and pass the rest of her life in peace.

But could she truly bear the loneliness, forsake the stage, and abandon years of effort?

She was terrified she wouldn’t be able to resist surrendering to the twisted Wu Jingxiang.

Standing atop the Pyramid, Lu Bingbing watched the scene unfold and sneered inwardly.

Indeed, no one who walked out of Galaxy— that hellish place—was a naïve little rabbit.

Long Zitao saw Ye Yuwei make the "right" choice and let out a long sigh of relief.

In the control room, Yang Xiaoyue watched with a complicated expression. This Ye Yuwei was indeed no white lotus—calculating, clear-minded in the face of benefit.

"Choosing her is fine. She needs this opportunity more than I do." Ni Chunshu and Ye Yuwei hugged briefly, and before leaving, she still made sure to jab at Ye Yuwei.

She implied that Ye Yuwei pitied Wang Na for having no resources after leaving, which was why she chose her.

"You’re all amazing, and you’re really good too." Ye Yuwei replied with a smile.

"None of the members in Chen Afang’s group have advanced, and their thumbs-up queen Chen Afang has also quit."

Long Zitao’s words left the remaining five members of that group feeling awkward and embarrassed.

Though their group had won, all their members were now sitting in the elimination zone.
