The Fake Darling of the Group Rises to the Top [Entertainment Industry]

[Pre-release notice, blurb will be revised before the novel opens] As the youngest member of his boy band, Si Yu has always been doted on by his older bandmates. He can refuse to go onstage just because he feels tired, and whenever he does appear, he is guaranteed to take the center spot. Everyone says the band isn't popular because they have a useless "team darling" who can't do anything but drag everyone else down. At last, one day, Si Yu leaves the band. As the fans celebrate enthusiastically and comfort the heartbroken bandmates, they don't forget to leave Si Yu a few mocking remarks: "The black sheep finally knows his place." "Well, little guy, finally going out to see how cruel the world is? Don't come crying back to your big brothers. Not that you can come back anyway, haha!" "Don't say that. He's got bigger ambitions, after all. Why would he care about our little nobody group?" Not long afterward, during a televised talent competition, a voice rang out across the darkened stage, instantly captivating everyone. The audience couldn't help but lose themselves in the song and marvel at the performance. When the spotlight fell on center stage, they gradually made out the performer's face... How could it be that black sheep?! Later... "He sounds even better singing a cappella than with the music!" "Ahhhhh! His dancing is insanely good! I'm in!" "He wrote and composed all these songs himself? That's amazing!" "He's always helping the other guys. He's so sweet." Starting over, Si Yu is considered one of the older contestants on the show. Since this competition aims to be open and transparent, he is confident he can make his debut through his own ability. He carefully chooses his future teammates and does everything he can to help them advance. He feels a special sense of responsibility toward Xiang Huaishu, who is set to be the youngest member of their future group. The darling of our group has to be genuinely doted on! Teaching him how to switch between chest voice and falsetto, helping him nail the dance details, massaging him and stretching his muscles... After finishing his own practice, Si Yu insists on staying to practice with Xiang Huaishu. At last, he is so tired he sits down on the floor. He has just taken a sip of water when someone comes over to ask him for advice. Si Yu is about to get up, but Xiang Huaishu presses him back down. "Yu-ge, I'll take care of it. Just watch from the side." The teammate under Xiang Huaishu's gaze nods frantically. Then Si Yu is pleasantly surprised to see Xiang Huaishu dance almost perfectly. Si Yu applauds with satisfaction. Hard work always pays off. The other teammates: Heh. [Flirtatious wolfdog seme x Pure-hearted beauty uke] Theme: Gold will always shine
