Back in the dormitory, the teenagers were all shouting that they were hungry. Gu Chenkai and Gao Ming went out to eat barbecue. Wang Bingyang wanted to eat instant noodles but was afraid of getting fat.
Ning Lan just entered the kitchen, held his hand and said, "I'll cook some noodles, I'll bring you one."
Lu Xiaochuan, who came to the kitchen for food after him, raised his hand: "Bring me one too."
The dried noodles were bought by Ning Lan before, and they were placed vertically in the corner of the refrigerator, which did not take up much space, thus avoiding the fate of being thrown away. When the water boils, blanch the small greens first, then fry the eggs and bacon in the pan. After the vegetables are blanched, the noodles are finished. The three noodle bowls are all clear soup with soy sauce. The cooked noodles are taken in, and the vegetables are placed. Finally, pour a few drops of sesame oil and it is done. .
The two were really starving, and it took a bowl of noodles and a few chopsticks to see the bottom. Wang Bingyang was still not satisfied after eating, and even praised that Ning Lan's craftsmanship surpassed that of a five-star hotel chef.
"Just ordinary Yangchun noodles, is it so exaggerated?" Ning Lan smiled.
After Lu Xiaochuan finished eating, he put down his chopsticks and said with a thumbs up, "It's really delicious."
When Sui Yi came out of the room, Ning Lan was cleaning up the empty bowl.
He hadn't figured out what state he would use to face Sui Yi next, he squeezed the edge of the bowl nervously and asked him, "Do you want to eat?"
Sui Yi shook his head and said no, and pushed a card in front of him: "It's transferred to your account, the rest is on the card, the password is 990318."
Ning Lan first glanced around to make sure no one was there, then put down the bowl, took the card, and set the number on it with her eyes down, not knowing what to say.
Sui Yi saw that he was hesitating to say something, and he was wrong, and asked: "Have you remembered the password? Do you want to take a pen and paper..."
"Remember," Ning Lan said hurriedly, "Thank you."
In this awkward and silent atmosphere, Sui Yi was also a little uncomfortable. After saying "rest early", he turned around and went back to his room.
Ning Lan tossed and turned all night thinking about whether to apply to be transferred back to her original room. It was only when I arrived at the company the next morning that I heard that the photo of Gu Chenkai staring at him on stage yesterday was posted on Weibo. The comments were highly polarized. Half were distressed that Ning Lan was excluded, while the other half believed that Ning Lan must have done something bad to make Gu Chenkai so angry.
In the eyes of fans, Gu Chenkai is a child who has not grown up. He is too well protected by his parents, he has never endured hardships, and he can't raise any bad intentions in a rich life. . His external character is his true appearance, and there are almost no decorative elements, so it is easy to be accepted and liked by everyone. With the popularity of AOW, the remarks that he was based on his family background when he first debuted gradually disappeared. Many fans are attracted by his lively and cheerful personality and clear and beautiful voice.
Therefore, Gu Chenkai's reason for stepping on Ning Lan was completely tenable.
However, Ning Lan's small group of only fans and passers-by fans didn't buy it - the young master is so arrogant that he dares to roll his eyes at his brother in the same group in public, but he doesn't know how to bully others in private!
Soon, some fans dig out the details of the previous episodes of AOW, and found that Gu Chenkai really never paid attention to Ning Lan. When Ning Lan was photographed several times, he sneered at the back and looked disdainful. Ning Lan's only fans threw these out as evidence that their Bubble Lan was being bullied. Gu Chenkai's fans retorted, saying that if it wasn't for your Bubble Black who had no strength and still wanted to steal the camera, would our Chenchen be so disgusted?
Ning Lan felt very wronged. He could swear to God that he had never competed for anyone's camera.
When he clicked on Weibo, he saw a long string of @messages, all of which were mixed in the comments of the scolding war. There was nothing to say, and occasionally a few stood up to maintain order and said, "Noisy, don't cook it." No one cares at all.
The host of Chaohua is the management of the AOW support club. He deleted the post until his hand cramped. It took half a day to suppress the conflict. It is said that the official fan group is still arguing. Gu Chenkai was so angry that he couldn't eat breakfast. He closed the door and howled all morning. Ning Lan didn't take it to heart. He heard from An Lin that because of this incident, Gu Chenkai lost fans and he gained fans. He just couldn't sit still.
How to say that Gu Chenkai is now the younger brother of his financial master, does this count as... revenge for kindness
Ning Lan was standing at the door and was about to knock when Sui Yi came out and saw him first stunned, then turned his back and closed the door. Ning Lan wanted to bypass him and go in, but he stopped him: "What are you going in for?"
"Apologies." Ning Lan said concisely.
Seeing his indifferent expression, Sui Yi didn't seem to want to go in to pick quarrels and cause trouble. After thinking about it, he said, "He's acting like a child, ignore him."
Hearing this, Ning Lan felt relieved, but she didn't dare to show it on her face. Who let the child in front of him be promoted to his gold master? He planned to transfer back to the original room because he thought it would be more convenient to serve the gold master.
Based on this, even if he was asked to kneel to Gu Chenkai now, he would not hesitate to bend his knees and cry for his father.
"Is the money back?" Sui Yi asked.
"Ah?... I paid it back." Ning Lan was a little flustered by the sudden concern.
Last night, he called Boss Liu with the money in the account. Speaking of which, this was the first time he had contacted the creditor proactively. However, after paying it off, he didn't feel relieved, but heavier.
The debt is still owed, but the creditors have merged from one pile into one.
He didn't know whether his choice was right or wrong, and the situation at that time felt ridiculous to him now in retrospect.
Contrary to him, Sui Yi was as calm as if he was out of the situation. He nodded and said, "Well, today Tuan Zong is going to draw materials, so don't leave the team too far."
In the evening, An Lin carried the camera directly to the AOW dormitory, and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up, I have to go back and edit the film after shooting, and it will be broadcast tomorrow."
Ning Lan asked as she packed up her things, "Isn't the movie to be broadcast this week already cut?"
An Lin sighed: "It's not that your two ancestors are doing things on stage. This round of troupe rounds is temporarily replaced with the daily routine of the dormitory, and I will clean it up for you."
Gu Chenkai was sitting on the sofa, he rolled his eyes when he heard the words, and his anger came up again: "What are you washing? You can't wash it! Let them talk about it!"
Sui Yi frowned and continued to do his brother's ideological work patiently. Ning Lan didn't have time to listen, anyway, no matter what he was going to play, he would fully cooperate.
Filming starts after 15 minutes, starting with a visit to each room, in order to record the warm and friendly brotherhood. The camera came to the captain's dormitory. Ning Lan hugged the strawberry pillow and said that it was given by the fans. She accompanies him to sleep every night, and picked up the plaster next to the bed and said that it was given by the captain.
"Don't look at his face all day long, he's actually an out-and-out warm man." Brainless boasting captains can never go wrong.
Then the camera shot to Sui Yi who was in the upper bunk. Ning Lan said that the captain had a unique ability to get out of bed. Sui Yi stretched his long legs and jumped off the upper bunk. Gu Chenkai also jumped from the low bed. Hold the venue to applaud the brothers. In the end, Gu Chenkai distributed a bag of snacks to each of the roommates, including Ning Lan, according to An Lin's instructions. The two of them chatted awkwardly for a few words before revealing the fake PART.
That night, a variety show recorded by AOW in early June happened to be broadcast, and An Linduo stayed for a while to film the daily routine of seven people watching TV together.
The TV station's program is known for its exaggerated editing in the later stage. One of the clips in which Lu Xiaochuan and Fang Yu were fighting for the same game clue box was pulled in and slowed down for a full minute. Fang Yu, who came to the dormitory specially to cooperate with the filming, had his face darkened, so don't be silent at the beginning.
In the one-and-a-half hour program, Ning Lan's shots were the least expected, and only got a few close-ups when Lu Xiaochuan improvised RAP and he helped beat the beat.
After the broadcast, she sent An Lin downstairs. She pulled Ning Lan aside and said, "The fans don't know the truth, but we all know that it's not your fault. Sister Zhang Fan asked me to tell you, Chen Kai's child. Temper, don't know him in general."
Ning Lan nodded obediently and said yes.
An Lin brought the words to her, and prepared to leave with the camera in hand. After thinking about it, she turned around and couldn't help but say, "In the future, I have to learn how to do things on the show, and try to show myself as much as possible. It's not for you to do things like Chen Kai... Although it will be edited later, but if you just stand in the back and do the background board, don’t you have no chance at all, have you forgotten what you taught in the training?”
Ning Lan shook his head, but he didn't forget, but he didn't have the qualifications and position to fight for the camera.
Not before, not now.
The next day, the morning bell and the evening drum, were the same.
AOW's first single passed the promotion period, and there was almost no group schedule in early August. Gao Ming took over a dance program and had to go out to record every week; Lu Xiaochuan had been quiet for a while after ShowCase, but recently he has returned to his old ways. Tail; Young Master Gu Chenkai found new fun and went to the teacher to study with his guitar every day; Sui Yi was about to join the group and began to study the script.
In addition to daily training, Ning Lan plays with Wang Bingyang. Wang Bingyang got a set of game consoles, and the two of them squatted in the living room to play. The children were full of energy, and they were not too tired to play through the night. He was about to fall asleep on the sofa, and was dragged by Wang Bingyang to continue fighting with his eyelids on.
In the middle of the night, Ning Lan heard someone whispering in her ear, "He's sleepy, let him sleep."
He was really sleepy. He practiced dancing until he was half-dead during the day, and now he can't open his eyes. He was helped up and stumbled to the room, with his head resting on the shoulders of the person who supported him. In a trance, he only realized that this person was not Wang Bingyang, and that the child was not so tall.
He was put on the bed, and this man knew how to drag the back of his head to avoid falling straight down.
Ning Lan's eyes rolled under her lids, and she seemed to be able to see an outline in front of her eyes, but she turned and disappeared again.
Sui Yi covered him with a blanket, and just as he was about to straighten up, one of Ning Lan's arms suddenly stretched out and grabbed the hand he was about to withdraw.
Sui Yi watched those eyes open, the dark eyes met his own, and held his breath in a conditioned reflex.
These days, as usual, he has done his own duties and been the captain of AOW, but he clearly knows that he is hiding. Pretending to study the script requires quietness, avoid sharing the same room with Ning Lan, and even go to bed early every day, and try not to face Ning Lan alone.
Every time he thought about it, he felt that he might have been crazy that day, and he blurted out such words.
What's even more frightening is that he doesn't feel regret, even knowing that his behavior is not only not a hero, but also very naive.
Sui Yi could actually sense that Ning Lan's attitude towards him had also changed. For example, at this moment, Ning Lan raised the corners of his mouth while he was not awake, and curved a shallow arc. He climbed up with his thumb along his ring finger, and gently scratched his palm, reminding him of yesterday in the practice room. , seeing Lu Xiaochuan naughty sneak attack Ning Lan from behind, scratching Ning Lan giggling.
At that time, he was unhappy for no reason, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't find the reason. Now he suddenly understands that he has subconsciously taken Ning Lan under his arms, thinking that he is his own, hoping that his every move, every smile and every smile will develop according to his own expectations.
This realization made Sui Yi even more anxious. At the end of the day, he is no different from those who try to control other people's lives with money. Whether it was the desire for control, possessiveness, or some other inherent inferiority of human beings was at work. Based on his current experience, he hurriedly discerned, which was equivalent to seeing flowers in the fog.
Just in the moment of Sui Yi's confusion, Ning Lan opened her mouth and yawned slightly, her eyes becoming more wet. He let go of his hand, turned inside, left only a back figure for Sui Yi, and said in a long voice, "Night-good-"
After the lights went out, everything was silent.
Ning Lan, who was sleeping on his side, opened his eyes and closed them again. He went back and forth several times, but he was unable to relieve the sense of oppression that was helpless and entangled in layers upon layers of his heart.
If Sui Yi could treat him a little bit worse, he would feel at ease and maybe, at least he wouldn't have to think about how to deal with it, nor what he would get to repay.
The tenderness that comes from the essence is the most silent and the most irresistible.
