Rose Trainee

After an unexpected failure in her second attempt at the college entrance exam, the whole family was in turmoil, and Yu Yixiao had no choice but to go out and find a job. She didn't dare tell her family that she actually wanted to repeat her final year of high school once more. Then she saw a recruitment poster for "Pretty Girl Trainees" on the street. If she passed the audition and stayed with the production team for a month, she could earn 10,000 yuan. Passing the first elimination round would earn her another 20,000.

As for debuting...

Yu Yixiao: This show must be so amateurish. What are the odds someone like me would debut?

If things went well, she could leave the show at the end of August with 30,000 yuan and find a decent school to repeat her final year.

Gu Ze was a legend in the entertainment industry. His first stage performance as a trainee had gone viral, earning him countless fans, but he never debuted. Instead, he went straight home to inherit the family business. He created a hit national talent show, launched the country's top girl group, and turned a struggling short-video platform into a leading one.

Netizens felt they were witnessing the birth of a legend, and nobody believed anything could shake him.

Little did they know, in a small practice room, Gu Ze was half-kneeling on the floor, his voice gentle. "Yixiao, let's be together."

Yu Yixiao: "Boss, do you remember the cardinal rule for our group?"

Gu Ze: "No dating while the group is active..."

Yu Yixiao: "You made that rule. You should remember to follow it yourself."

Yu Yixiao, too, had once been captivated by that man's performances, until she heard that voice message.

"The show's popularity comes first. Make the show go viral. If the performances aren't enough, use scandals about the contestants to make headlines. Yu Yixiao is no exception."

Decisive. Merciless.

Just like her heart would be from then on.

tips: 1. No characters are based on real people.

2. A mysterious trainee who thinks she has a heart of stone x an ordinary girl who really does have a heart of stone

3. Early in the show, the male lead once sacrificed the female lead to save himself, back when he didn't like her. Afterward, all he wanted was to sacrifice himself. TCL
