As if realizing that he had said something he shouldn’t have, Nan Mu’s expression changed slightly and he quickly changed the subject.

“Come on, you can do it! Once the third performance is over, you’ll be free!”

Before leaving, he reminded Lin Shanchu, “If you need anything, you can come to me. If I’m not in the training camp, you can look for Song Yiming.”

“Alright.”

Lin Shanchu watched Nan Mu leave.

From the conversation between Nan Mu and Huo Xunzhou earlier, she could tell that Nan Mu didn’t know that Huo Chaosheng was Huo Xunzhou’s cousin.

Naturally, he would not have known what kind of person Huo Chaosheng was.

So, Nan Mu’s special reminder to stay away from Huo Chaosheng must have been Huo Xunzhou’s instruction.

Huo Xunzhou seemed pretty angry yesterday.

Yet, he still sent Nan Mu over to specifically warn her.

Even though they both had the surname Huo, they had a huge difference in personality.

On another note, this was already the second time someone had asked her to stay away from Huo Chaosheng.

And she did want to stay away from Huo Chaosheng.

But Huo Chaosheng had already latched onto her.

Perhaps Huo Chaosheng had sensed Lin Shanchu’s disgust towards him because he finally acted normal for the next few days.

He didn’t seize every opportunity to say crazy things like ‘We’re of the same kind’ to Lin Shanchu.

Instead, he focused on preparing for the competition.

On the day before the competition, the production crew held a routine rehearsal.

The rehearsal was just to familiarize themselves with the formation and stage in advance, so the trainees remained in their usual training clothes.

Lin Shanchu stood on the stage with black hair and red lips. No matter which angle you look from, she still looked like she had just been kidnapped and forced on stage. She had no rap vibe at all.

After the rehearsal, the director said, “Stylist, put more effort into Lin

Shanchu’s styling.”

The entire internet knew that Lin Shanchu’s song selection had been messed up by her fans.

But still, she couldn’t afford to slack off on stage.

At the very least, she had to let the audience feel the sincerity of both the production crew and herself.

Lin Shanchu had been training very seriously recently, so her styling needed to match up as well.

Her haters were always thinking of ways to bring Lin Shanchu down in all sorts of ways, so they had to be more cautious in this aspect.

Following the director’s instructions, the stylist called Lin Shanchu over that evening.

Her teammates and some other trainees who just wanted to watch also followed.

The stylist tried several different styles on her.

After each styling, the stylist would consider everyone’s opinions.

“Is this good?”

Everyone responded:

“Beautiful.” “It looks good.”

“I want this too!”

The stylist fell silent for a moment and said, “What I meant was, do you think it gives off a rap vibe?”

Everyone fell silent.

The stylist sighed and started over.

When the new styling was done, everyone praised it again.

But when the stylist asked if it had a rap vibe, there was another round of silence.

The stylist was in despair.

Lin Shanchu was really pretty.

There was an indescribable sense of elegance about her.

If it were any other performance, she would always look good no matter how she was styled.

Seeing the stylist so worried, Lin Shanchu suggested, “What if we cut off my hair?”

“Ah?” The stylist caressed Lin Shanchu’s shiny black hair as her face filled with reluctance, “I think..’

Lin Shanchu continued, “Should we dye it a different color?” The stylist found dyeing to be more acceptable.

“What color do you want to dye?” the stylist asked her.

Lin Shanchu turned to look at the blue costume beside her.

“Blue. ”

The stylist was caught off guard by her answer.

“Cut it first and then dye it,” Lin Shanchu straightened her posture, looking prepared.

“This color…” the stylist hesitated.

Was the young lady serious about this?

Lin Shanchu turned around and smiled at the stylist, “Thank you for your hard work. I’d like to finish early and go to sleep.”

The stylist held the scissors but couldn’t start.

Her heart ached for Lin Shanchu. She had such beautiful hair.

She gathered the ends of Lin Shanchu’s hair, “Would this be short enough?”

“There’s no difference.”

The stylist was quiet.

“Just go ahead and cut it as you wish. I trust you,” Lin Shanchu closed her eyes.

The stylist made up her mind and started cutting with swift movements.

Lin Shanchu opened her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror.

The stylist started to cut her long hair from the sides.

Lin Shanchu had never cut her hair this short before.

Back in her school days, there was a period when the short bob hairstyle was trendy.

Many girls in Lin Shanchu’s class cut their hair short.

She was somewhat tempted to try it too.

But when Lu Shiyuan learned she wanted to cut her hair short, he stopped her.

She still remembered what Lu Shiyuan said.

“Shanshan looks the best with long hair. I like Shanshan’s long hair the most.”

Although the hair was on her head, her opinion of it didn’t matter.

Later on, there was a period when the princess cut was popular.

Lu Shiyuan used similar words to stop her again.

Thinking back to those days, it made her feel suffocated.

“Could you give me the princess cut?” Lin Shanchu asked softly.

The cut was half short half long. In Lu Shiyuan’s words, it was neither fish nor fowl.

But she insisted on having that cut.

Because she liked it.

The stylist naturally couldn’t object.

After finishing the haircut, the stylist admired her work and was stunned by its beauty.

“It looks really good.”

The other trainees who were watching couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.

“I finally know why it’s called a princess cut.”

‘Why?”

“Because this hairstyle was tailor-made for this princess.”

“I’m so envious. Lin Shanchu really looks like a princess with this princess cut…”

The princess cut was relatively niche.

It required a certain demeanor to pull off.

Before, Lin Shanchu didn’t have bangs. Her long hair draped over her shoulders, giving her a look of pure elegance. She was extremely docile and had the temperament of a socialite.

But with the princess cut, her nobility became even more pronounced and she seemed more lively.

After the haircut, the stylist started dyeing Lin Shanchu’s hair.

A few of the trainees at the side were also clamoring to get the same cut.

However, since the stage styling had already been decided, they could only give up the idea for the time being.

The dyeing process took a long time.

Since the competition was tomorrow, most of the trainees left early to rest.

The stylist went to work on other trainees’ hair, leaving only Yun Wu and Lin Shanchu at the scene.

Yun Wu had short hair which gave the stylist very limited options on styles, so she usually had her hair done on the morning of the recording.

She sat beside Lin Shanchu cross-legged on a chair, staring at her head with anticipation.

Lin Shanchu asked her, “Aren’t you going to sleep?” “I want to see how your hair turns out.”

Lin Shanchu chuckled, ‘You can find out tomorrow.”

“I’m not sleepy,” Yun Wu shook her head while resting her chin in her hand. Lin Shanchu fell silent for a moment, “Is there something vou want to tell me?” Yun Wu was stunned and slowly sat up straight, “You can tell?”

“Do you really think I’m that clueless?” Lin Shanchu noticed that when Yun Wu was following her over, she had a troubled look on her face.

Yun Wu cleared her throat and brought up the main point, “How have you been getting along with Huo Chaosheng recently?”

Lin Shanchu calmly looked Yun Wu up and down, “It’s not bad..”
