Chapter 4 Part 2 – Small target accomplished

At 9.30 am on Friday morning, Chen Minhao was squatting in front of Kang Hui"s office on the 12th floor with a bun in his left hand and soybean milk in his right hand.

“Didn"t I tell you to wait for me on the eighth floor?” Kang Hui asked. Looking at the young man carrying a blank look on his face, Kang Hui had a hunch, and immediately added: “Wait for me at the eighth floor.”

“Alright.” Before the sound of Kang Hui"s voice faded away, Chen Minhao acknowledged her order, and immediately got up on his feet and started walking towards the elevator.

Kang Hui"s lips curled into a graceful arc and asked, “Why didn"t you ask me the reason why I"m asking you to go to the number three training room on the eighth floor?”

Chen Minhao turned back at Kang Hui, and replied in a deep voice, “If Sister Kang feels that I should be informed, then naturally you will let me know the reason. If you don"t tell me the reason, then that meant that I don"t have the need to know about it. Hence, I didn"t ask.”

Kang Hui nodded her head with satisfaction. She likes obedient artists that obeys whatever they are told because she believed that the decision she makes for them are definitely the the most efficient and beneficial to them.

…

Chen Minhao pushed open the door of the number three training room with his body. Gao Dao and another trainee – Zhou Minrui, were already sitting on the floor inside the room when he entered.

Zhou Mingrui was 21 years old this year. He had a good voice for singing, and was slightly overweight. Perhaps because of his age being older than the other trainees, he had always been playing the role of an elder brother as he typically took care of them in their everyday life.

The interview for the selection of Divine Dream"s three-member boy group just ended, and now, three trainees were summoned to a training room. The intention behind this was obvious, however, the three of them had a tacit understanding of not pointing the fact out.

When the two of them saw Chen Minhao entered the room, their faces lit up.

The reason for Gao Dao to be elated was because Chen Minhao"s dancing couldn"t hold a candle to his, and thus, his position as the lead dance in the group was secured.

As for Zhou Minrui, as Divine Dream"s best trainee in singing, no matter who it was that came, there wouldn"t be anyone capable of threatening his position as the main vocal of the group. The reason why he was elated, was because he and Chen Minhao were fellow buddies that always suffered in acting cla.s.s. Their acting skills were same as malignant tumors, and thus, they sort of understood each other feelings as they were in the same boat.

Chen Minhao was deeply awared that the trio group would just be a simple jumpboard platform for him, and that this jumpboard would be like a train to him, bringing him to the next destination in his life. However, in a train, there are standing tickets and sleeper tickets!

According to the original host"s memory: The two of them have their own strengths, and their personalities are not those that get into trouble easily. For now, this train that he was taking could be consider as a luxury sleeper train.

Chen Minhao walked a few steps forward and greeted them. Then, he sat down and continued eating his bun.

Looking at the bun in Chen Minhao"s hand, Gao Dao smiled: “As the young master of a bun bakery, don"t you ever get sick of eating buns everyday?”

The corner of Chen Minhao"s lips slightly twitched: “There are a large variety of flavors. I don"t repeat the flavors when I eat them from Monday to Sunday.

Speaking of the bun bakery, he suddenly recalled the predecessor"s father words in the video call – “Isn"t it better to come back and learn how to make buns from me? It"s possible to earn ten thousands a year at least."

Gao Dao smirked: “Do you think your family"s bun bakery will become internet famous when you become popular?”

Chen Minhao shot a glance at Gao Dao and replied: “When I become rich and famous, I"ll definitely make them close the bakery and travel around the world to enjoy life.”

After all, he had taken over the body of someone else"s son, thus, he must to give something in return or his heart would start to feel bad.

Zhou Mingrui who had kept silent the whole time, asked in an uneasy yet eager tone: “Hey guys, what do you think being popular feels like?” (TL"s note: Popular in Chinese can also mean red.)

Chen Minhao solemnly replied with a straight face: “To a prawn, becoming red meant that it is cooked and ready to be eaten.”

After he was done speaking, Gao Dao and Zhou Mingrui instantly rolled their eyes at him.

Zhou Mingrui asked Chen Minhao with a slight doubt in his tone: “You are always talking about food, and I can clearly see that you have a huge appet.i.te when you eat in the canteen, but why aren"t you getting fat at all?”

Chen Minhao took a look at Zhou Mingrui"s figure. For an ordinary young man, he had a normal figure. But as an idol, he was a bit too chubby.

Chen Minhao inched his body forward and lowered his voice: “Let me teach you my unique and secret technique. First, swing your head to the left and then to the right. Then left again, and right again. Repeat the movement three to five times.”

“I can slim down just like that?” Zhou Mingrui had a look of disbelief.

“Whenever someone offer you food, do this action and you"re sure to slim down.”

Unable to hide his laughter Gao Dao sat up straight and said: “Seriously, stop joking around. After we become popular, we will probably have the time of our lives every single day! Every time we alight from the plane, there will be a lot of people receiving us at the airport just to catch glimpses of us. Every time we post a tweet, we will get thousands of fans replying us. We will have endless shows to appear in, and the balance of our bank account will be like flying rocket.”

Zhou Mingrui pondered and said with a frown: “If we are so busy every day, there isn"t any time for us to spend our money right?”

Gao Dao gave him a push and said, “If you can"t find the time to spend your money, give them to me and I"ll spend it on your behalf.”

Zhou Minrui frowned again and asked, “What do we do if we can"t get popular and end up as nugu?”

Gao Dao unleashed a grappling choke on Zhou Minrui, and warned in a malicious tone: “Don"t jinx it! You jinx!”

Chen Minhao said instinctively: “Then I will go back and be the young master of the bun bakery.”

As soon as he finished his words, the door of the number 3 training room opened. When they saw the person that entered the room, the three young men stood up: “Good day to you sister Kang.”

Kang Hui walked into the room slowly and spoke softly: “Good morning, let"s cut to the chase. Congratulations to you three, the three of you will enter Produce 101 as a group.”

Hearing Kang Hui"s announcement, Chen Minhao who was mentally prepared still felt extremely excited, he could feel every cells in his body jumping as after all, he had achieved his first small target after he transmigrated which was to enter into the trio group and to partic.i.p.ate in the Kiwi"s talent show.

Looking at the young men that were jumping with joy like sparrows in front of her, Kang Hui showed a sincere smile: “I will be the agent for this group from now on. Here"s to a great cooperation. Let"s go have dinner. I"ll treat you all to a big meal.”
