64: Watch beautiful women dance

Xu Zhiyou heard this, looked at Chou Tzuyu, and said, "Oh, you're not being honest!"

After chatting for a while, with Lim Nayeon and Chou Tzuyu as familiar faces, plus Xu Zhiyou's thick skin, the awkwardness quickly disappeared.

"Lisa, how did your leader suddenly appear? I hadn't heard of her before." Momo, who shared a common hobby, was now getting along famously with her.

As soon as she said that, everyone was curious. People who suddenly appear like this are usually either well-connected or well-connected.

But Xu Zhiyou was clearly very strong, and her creative talent was also very high.

With her talent and strength, solo seemed to be her best option. Just look at how IU became famous, wasn't it like that?

"Our leader was eliminated from the acting department. The company originally planned for her to debut as an actress, but her acting was terrible. The company had no choice, so, you know."

"She can create, so why did your CEO want her to be an actress?" Kim Dahyun was greatly confused.

"Because she's pretty!"

Kim Dahyun glanced at Xu Zhiyou and slowly said, "No arguments there!"

"Lalisa, I'm right here. Why are you just spouting nonsense?" Xu Zhiyou always felt like this girl was getting a bit led astray by her, what was going on?

The old Lisa, while mischievous, was still very honest. Now she dared to just blurt out anything.

"Just kidding, just kidding! Don't let our leader's unreliability fool you, she's really amazing. As soon as she came in, she had the dance teacher on the floor."

Everyone present loved gossip. They had also heard Kwon Ji-yong mention once that the dance teacher had inexplicably made things difficult for her.

Judging by this, it was undoubtedly true. Kim Dahyun loved hearing stories of bravely fighting bullies. Which of them hadn't been 'educated' by a training teacher?

It was the same in every company. They weren't their children or relatives, so if they had any dissatisfaction in their daily lives, they would just take it out on the trainees.

This kind of thing was all too common on the Peninsula. Who told artists here that their status was low, and there were also hundreds of thousands of people competing?

"Tell us more! How did she defeat them?"

Xu Zhiyou looked at Lisa, who was speaking eloquently, and thought she had some performing talent. Why hadn't she noticed it before?

The story became more and more outrageous, with talk of jumping two meters off the ground and dozens of consecutive backflips. Kim Ji-soo couldn't listen anymore.

"Lisa, why don't you just say Zoe could kick someone to death? Can you not be so ridiculous?"

"I just added a little embellishment, a tiny, tiny bit, not much! Haha!"

Chou Tzuyu poked her and asked, "Are you really good at dancing?"

It wasn't surprising that Chou Tzuyu asked this. She hadn't really showcased herself on stage.

She gave off the illusion of being decent, but not exceptionally good, yet overall very coordinated. This is what high-level dancers do; controlling their abilities is a basic skill.

"Me? I'm alright!"

In front of people she wasn't very familiar with, she still couldn't really show off. Showing off indiscriminately, regardless of the occasion, wasn't thick-skinned; it was foolish behavior.

"What level is 'alright'? How do you compare to Momo Unnie?"

Could she say that Momo wasn't strong enough for her to handle? She changed the subject, saying, "The main dancer is Lisa, what do you think?"

Lisa knew it. This girl, she would ruthlessly crush her own people, but be as low-key as possible with outsiders.

She didn't even care if she was called useless, just like now, pretending again. What kind of habit was that?

Xu Zhiyou didn't care what Lisa thought of her. Crushing her was only because she was too arrogant. Despite her soft and cute appearance, her inner self was incredibly proud.

These were all honors from constantly topping charts or being triple-A trainees, etc. After all, she was still young, so being arrogant was normal.

If they didn't listen verbally, then she could only crush them a few times to wear down their arrogance.

It was fine to be arrogant with her own people, but being arrogant with outsiders could lead to trouble. Unless she was truly strong, she should be as low-key as possible.

"Then why don't we let them compete? We still have plenty of time," Kim Dahyun suggested.

"I have no problem, you ask the person involved!"

Xu Zhiyou also wanted to see who was better among the four-generation main dancers she currently knew: Momo, Lisa, and Kang Seul-gi.

"I won't compete. I'm not good. I usually just get scolded for my skill."

Kim Ji-soo inexplicably found Lisa's words hilarious. Lisa, as the main dancer, had been 'rubbed' by Xu Zhiyou's dancing again and again.

Park Chaeyoung, the main vocalist, was also completely crushed by Xu Zhiyou's singing ability.

Kim Ji-soo could actually guess some of the reasons why she did this: these two were too arrogant and couldn't stand each other.

"Lisa, why don't you just try it? Actually, I'm also very curious whose talent is better."

"I'm not good, I give up." Lisa didn't feel like competing. What was there to compare? It wasn't a talent show, it was completely meaningless.

Besides, she didn't think much of anyone except Xu Zhiyou, at least in terms of dancing.

If someone didn't want to compete, Xu Zhiyou couldn't do anything about it. She was just curious; there was no need to force people. She also really disliked being forced by others.

Do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you. She understood that much.

"It's almost time, let's go eat. I'm really curious what your company's organic cafeteria looks like?"

Chou Tzuyu checked the time. It was not yet eleven, and they usually ate at twelve.

"Our practice tasks aren't finished yet, and it's still early. Let's go at twelve."

"Then you guys practice, we'll sit on the side for a while."

JYP's artist-exclusive practice rooms were well-equipped, with fitness equipment, row seating, etc., essentially a small gym.

Kim Ji-soo and Lisa found seats and sat down to admire their dancing, while Xu Zhiyou went off to tinker with the fitness equipment.

They didn't have these things, and looking at it now, JYP seemed to be much better. Their gyms were all separated, which was a negative point.

After a few tries, she lost interest and lay down right next to Lisa, resting her head on her lap.

"Zoe, what do you think?"

"Sitting in the corner watching beautiful women dance is really nice. If I get rich in the future, I'll also open a company. That would definitely be fun."

Lisa rolled her eyes, "I mean, how do their skills compare to ours? Who told you to look at beautiful women!"

"They're very good, but there are too many people. They start moving positions without highlighting individuals much. If their solo careers can't keep up later, they'll be quite reliant on the group's popularity, which isn't good!"

Lisa thought about it, and it was true. The group TWICE was very popular, but the members' development seemed very restricted. This might be the downside of a large group!

"No wonder the CEO insisted on four people, unwilling to have even one more."

When they debuted as five, Yang Hyun-suk also played some psychological games with them, and they still remember it vividly, especially Park Chaeyoung and Kim Ji-soo.

"Alright, stop lamenting. Even if a four-member group can highlight individual abilities, if you're given bad resources later, you'll still be out of luck."

"But it's better than being unknown, right?"

"That's true!"

Xu Zhiyou agreed with this point. For artists, fame is paramount. Without fame, even if you dance your heart out, it's useless.
