On January 20, 2017, there is only one week left before the Lunar New Year. This day is also the time when Xiao Yi and Mu Ran go to the National TV station to participate in the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal. The Spring Festival Gala director team had already communicated with Xiao Yi and they would sing a song on the Spring Festival Gala. Xiao Yi had already sent his newly written song to the Spring Festival Gala director team.

"Niu Niu, you and grandma are here to take care of you. Mom and Dad have something to do today, so I can't accompany you today." Xiao Yi squatted in front of the little girl and said.

"Go, go, Niu Niu doesn't want you to take care of you. Niu Niu is an adult." The little girl waved her hand like a little adult.

Xiao Yi rubbed the little girl's head with a funny look, "You can make fun of the little girl movies all day long."

"Mom, then you can help me watch Niu Niu today. We will probably not be able to come back in the afternoon." Mu Ran stood aside and talked to her mother.

"Well, don't worry." Mu Ran's mother said with a smile. She received a call from Mu Ran yesterday and came here specifically today.

Then the two arrived in the car, Duoduo and others were already waiting for Xiao Yi and Mu Ran in the car.

Since Xiao Yi has too many things to do now and his identity is not suitable for driving Mu Ran, the company also assigned them a driver.

"Brother Yi, are you nervous about participating in the Spring Festival Gala for the first time?" After getting in the car, Duoduo asked with a smile. She is now Xiao Yi's assistant, so she has to follow Xiao Yi when she participates in the event.

"What's so nervous about this? I'm never nervous about it." Xiao Yi said.

"Sister Ran, where are you?"

"It's okay."

Duoduo curled his lips and said, "It's so boring. Why are you both so calm? That's the Spring Festival Gala of National TV. Especially Brother Yi, I haven't seen any newcomer who has just debuted for a year and can appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. You didn't react at all."

"What should I react?"

"At least we can't be like this now. We're a little nervous or excited."

"It's just a party, and it's no big deal to go up and sing for a few minutes."

......

When they arrived at the headquarters building of the State TV station, Xiao Yi and his group were taken to a separate dressing room by the staff.

Since there are too many people participating in the Spring Festival Gala, the dressing room is very nervous, so the dressing room that Xiao Yi and Mu Ran are also very small.

"Really, why did you arrange such a small room for us?" Duoduo looked at the small dressing room and complained.

"Okay, this is already very good. At least we are still in an independent dressing room, and many people are crowded in one dressing room." Mu Ran said.

Duoduo curled his lips, "Brother Yi, you are not a sponsor of this year's Spring Festival Gala, why do they treat you like this?"

"Sponsors may not necessarily have preferential treatment. Moreover, you said before that it is already a great preferential treatment for me as a newcomer to be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. What else do you want?" Xiao Yi said with a smile.

"Okay." Duoduo nodded depressedly.

Just now, the door was knocked, Duoduo went over and opened them, and asked in confusion: "What are you?"

A middle-aged woman stood outside the door with a little anxious face and said, "Hello, can you borrow your dressing room? It's our turn to go on stage to rehearse, but there are still many people who don't wear makeup."

Duoduo was about to refuse. They felt that such a small dressing room were small, so how could they lend it to others for use?

As a result, Xiao Yi spoke out: "Teacher Yang?"

The middle-aged woman at the door was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiao Yi who was walking over and said, "You are, Xiao Yi?"

"Hahaha, yes, Teacher Yang, I haven't seen you for many years!"

"It's really you, why are you here?" Teacher Yang said in surprise.

"Brother Yi, do you know each other?" Duoduo asked.

"I know, this is my teacher in college." Xiao Yi replied with a smile, "I am here to participate in the Spring Festival Gala. Why are you here too, Teacher Yang?"

"This year our school scheduled a dance program and was selected by the Spring Festival Gala. I am the team teacher."

"Oh, then you can let them come here to put on makeup."

"Okay, okay, it's such a coincidence that I actually met you. I'll call them now." Teacher Yang was also very happy. When he met his own students, everything would be easy to do.

"Brother Yi, our makeup artist is so young..."

"Okay, let alone being an acquaintance, even if they are strangers, they have to let others come in if they want to borrow it. It's not easy for people, so they can only help each other." Xiao Yi said.

"Oh, okay." Duoduo nodded. She wasn't really unhappy to let others borrow makeup artists, but after becoming Xiao Yi's assistant, she also received professional training from the company. The company's requirement was that everything outside must be based on the artists she followed. She was just afraid of delaying Xiao Yi and Mu Ran's affairs.

After a while, Teacher Yang brought seventy or eight young men and women in their twenties over here.

"You should know this person, he is your senior brother." Teacher Yang introduced.

"It's really Xiao Yi, hello, senior brother."

"Senior brother, you are so handsome."

"Hello, senior brother."

......

Xiao Yi also smiled and said to everyone: "Hello, come in and put on makeup quickly, don't delay the rehearsal."

Teacher Yang also quickly let the students enter the dressing room. Seeing Mu Ran sitting inside and putting on makeup, the students were surprised again and shouted "sister-in-law", which made Mu Ran a little shy.

"Zhang Shuai, you can also help me put on makeup for these junior brothers and sisters." Xiao Yi said to Zhang Shuai, who was his makeup artist.

"Okay Brother Yi."

Xiao Yi started chatting with Teacher Yang.

"Teacher Yang, how are you doing in the past few years?" Xiao Yi asked, pulling Teacher Yang to sit on the chair.

Teacher Yang was Xiao Yi's class teacher when he was in college. He was very kind to Xiao Yi at that time and cared about Xiao Yi very much.

"What can I do wrong? Isn't it the same as before. But you kid, you have made a fortune now." Teacher Yang also looked at Xiao Yi with a smile on his face.

"Hehe, that's OK, it's mainly because you taught me well at the beginning, and I'm just my own luck."

"Well, it's important that you work hard on your own. By the way, why do you never attend class reunions in your class after graduation?"

"Isn't that embarrassed to participate? Everyone is doing well, but I still accomplish nothing, so I have never had the nerve to participate."

"You." Teacher Yang smiled and patted Xiao Yi. When Xiao Yi was in college, she was very optimistic about this somewhat taciturn student. "Then you have succeeded now, right? If you have the chance in the future, please help your classmates more. Apart from Yang Mi, do you have any contact with other classmates?"

"I know the teacher. Yang Mi had already pulled me into the WeChat group of my classmates some time ago. Now everyone is in touch." Xiao Yi said.

"Well, that's good. You have time to go back to school. After you graduate for so many years, you have never seen you go back."

"Okay, I will definitely go back if I have time."

......

Xiao Yi was chatting with Teacher Yang, and with Zhang Shuai's help on the other side, the juniors quickly finished their makeup.

"Okay, I'll take them to the rehearsal first. If you have time, you must go back to school to have a look."

"I know, the teacher, you are busy."

After seeing off Teacher Yang and others, Xiao Yi sat down and started putting on makeup.

"Who is your university teacher?" Mu Ran asked.

"Yes, the head teacher in college would be very good to me." Xiao Yi said with a smile.

"What did you look like when you were in college?"

"What does it look like? It's similar to now, what else can it look like."

"Hmph, Yang Mi didn't say that. She also told me that you liked it very much when you were in college, so who would come."

Xiao Yi was stunned, and secretly stayed in his heart, the traitor Yang Mi actually told Mu Ran about his star chasing in college.

"Hey, that's just a star chasing, and nothing happened."

"Honestly, have you ever found a girlfriend in college?"

"Absolutely, you are my first girlfriend. Moreover, I haven't asked you yet, have you ever found a boyfriend in college, and you can honestly explain it!" Xiao Yi was very worried that Mu Ran knew that she had a crush on Yang Mi, so she turned against her!

"No, although there were many people chasing me in college, I don't like those foreigners with yellow hair and green eyes."

......

When Xiao Yi and Mu Ran walked out of the studio after the rehearsal, they met Teacher Yang and his group again.

"Teacher, is your program going well?" Xiao Yi took the initiative to walk over and asked.

Teacher Yang's face was a little bad and said, "Oh, the three-minute program was compressed into one and a half minutes."

"What's going on? Why are you still shortening your program time now? Haven't all the programs been confirmed?" Xiao Yi said in confusion. This rehearsal is the second-last rehearsal. In five days, the last rehearsal will be held, and then the official performance will be held on New Year's Eve.

Logically speaking, all the programs have been determined now, and the rehearsal is just to get through the various links and avoid any problems during live broadcasts. The performance time of each program should not be changed.

"I heard from the director team that there are other programs that don't have enough time, so we have compressed all the singing and dancing programs, not just us," said Teacher Yang.

"Oh, that's a pity, but don't take it too seriously. It would be great to be able to go to the stage of the Spring Festival Gala." Xiao Yi comforted.

"Oh, yes, it's good to be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, but I'm still a little unwilling to accept it. A good program has been compressed for half of its time, and many of the essences in the program cannot be displayed." Teacher Yang said with a wry smile.

Xiao Yi nodded and said nothing. Although he was a sponsor of the Spring Festival Gala, he still couldn't get into some things. He could only comfort him for a few words, and then bid farewell to Teacher Yang and his group and left.
