Saturday night at 6:00 pm, the event center on the first floor of C1, the finals of the campus singer/band audition is about to start. This competition and performance has a total of ten programs, the first eight are solo contestants singing, and the last two are two bands competing.
Ruan Nan and the others are an old-fashioned band formed since their freshman year, and their opponent is a new team that has just been formed recently. If you want to make a name for yourself in the S big, the best way is to play the challenge directly. No loss if you lose, and sure to win if you win.
The activity center in November was not warm either. Ruan Nan braided dirty pigtails, tied with silver ribbons, wore a cool black suit, and sat quietly in the waiting area with Martin boots on his feet. Their band has been on the battlefield for a long time, and they didn't pay attention to their opponents at all. When the phone vibrated, Ruan Nan opened it and saw that it was Lin Wei who said that there was a dinner party.
Ruan Nan: [It's okay.]
Lin Wei: [But there is someone you want to meet, and he should go.]
Ruan Nan paused and didn't reply to her again.
The other members of the band were chatting lively in the waiting area. Gu Xiaoxue, the bass player girl who was asked to watch a movie in public last time, has successfully been with the boy. The boy looks a little honest and honest. A dozen small cakes came to share with everyone.
Gu Xiaoxue blushed happily, and walked over like a child with a piece of black forest mousse: "Sister Nan, eat cake."
Ruan Nan responded to her with a smile: "Thank you, I'm not hungry now."
Gu Xiaoxue frowned, ran quickly to the backstage, swept her eyes down the stage, and quickly ran back: "Sister Nan, Miss Qin actually didn't come today? Last time I saw her with great difficulty, both I didn't have time to make an interview time."
Ruan Nan seemed a little surprised: "Why do you think she will come?"
Gu Xiaoxue raised her eyebrows higher, looked at no one around, leaned into Ruan Nan's ear and said, "I have seen that post from Sister Nan! I don't care if others take it seriously or not, anyway, I take it seriously, I am the two of you. What's the CP fan of me!" Then she pointed to the two girls in the backstage who Ruan Nan didn't know at all: "They are also like me, we are all 'Nanju'."
South, South of Nguyen Nam. Orange, the homonym of the word "house".
Ruan Nan is not a 2G player. Of course, he knows the deep meaning of the CP name. Although he is a little embarrassed, he still asks curiously: "Nanju? Not Junan?"
Gu Xiaoxue glanced at Ruan Nan's outfit: "Of course! Sister Nan, you are such a sassy A. Sister Qin actually looks like a kind of obedient little white flower. Anyway, what I can imagine is that Sister Nan, you are right, and you are straight to A. Go up, the scene of Sister Qin's red eyes..."
Seeing that Ruan Nan's face turned a little red again, Gu Xiaoxue stopped: "Sister Nan, don't tell me I'm on the wrong side??? No, it's not really Ju Nan, right?"
Ruan Nan quickly coughed and regained his usual arrogance and laziness: "Of course that's right."
Gu Xiaoxue patted her chest and said for a long time that it would be good, then she sighed at the end that it was a pity that Qin didn't come today, and she missed another chance to eat candy on the spot.
While the two were talking, Ruan Nan opened the phone and saw that the fox spirit had a red circle on his head, which read:
[Before going to the stage, you must eat or eat sugar.]
The message was sent five minutes ago, no extra words.
Ruan Nan didn't reply, and stopped Gu Xiaoxue who was about to leave, and finally returned the cake in her hand.
The songs proceeded in sequence, either a sad sentimental song or a high-pitched tune that exhilarated the soul and showed off his skills. A good-looking boy in a white shirt played and sang a ballad with a guitar by himself, which immediately attracted a lot of screams from below. It is not the first time for them to participate in the competition. Most of them are already well-known in the school, and many of the students under them even brought support banners.
Ruan Nan glanced casually, and some of the boy's support cards also wrote the words "Xiao Fanchuan".
Fan Chuan…
Since the mid-term exam, he has followed the team to participate in the project abroad, and has never seen him again. Ruan Nan couldn't help sneering, feeling that the name is extremely distant.
In the middle of the program, the whole atmosphere has been completely warmed up. The hip-hop club brought two serial shows, and the huge sound waves made the atmosphere of the whole venue even higher.
Suddenly there was a commotion in the backstage. Just after Ruan Nan finished eating the cake, he saw the band around the door. Ruan Nan also walked over, and saw a little brother with rabbit ears holding a few bouquets of flowers. Everyone in the backstage with heavy makeup and a confused expression of "who am I and where am I".
One of them asked, "Is it Midsummer Band?"
It's Ruan Nan's band.
The lead singer boy came over: "We are, what's the matter?"
The little brother looked at the list on his mobile phone and read: "An anonymous customer ordered a few bouquets of flowers, saying that they were given to the members of the Midsummer Band. I wish you all a successful performance and victory in the competition."
The people watching next to him immediately gave a wow, especially another member of the "Under the Clear Sky" band, who was sour and jealous for a while.
The lead singer said thank you and was about to take the flowers. The delivery boy flashed back: "If the customer requests, I will hand them over to you individually." He turned on the phone and accurately read the guitarist's name.
The guitarist smiled and walked over to take the flowers.
Ruan Nan glanced at it, it was an ordinary small bouquet of mixed flowers.
"Single Zhuo"
is the name of the lead singer.
"Gu Xiaoxue"
He wears bunny ears, but his face is as serious as a knight's medal, but a wonderful contrast emerges. The five names were quickly finished, and everyone looked at Ruan Nan in unison, but did not read her name.
And the little brother has no flowers in his hands.
Shan Zhuo coughed lightly: "Did you take one less bunch, we have six people."
The little brother glanced at the order: "No, I'm talking about five people, how can I count this wrong! Why, is there anyone who doesn't?"
The eyes of the whole backstage returned to Ruan Nan again, especially the drummer girl in "Under the Clear Sky", who laughed directly and deliberately.
An awkward atmosphere permeated the entire backstage.
In fact, Ruan Nan is generally not interested in this kind of on-the-spot flower delivery, but this time, for some unknown reason, she had some inexplicable expectations.
Then came the expected disappointment.
Gu Xiaoxue's eyes were quick, and she immediately handed over the flowers in her hand: "Sister Nan, I guess they made a mistake. I don't like flowers, can I give it to you?"
Shan Zhuo also came over: "I don't want to spend a big boy, Ruan Nan, you can take it."
The drummer under the clear sky immediately jeered: "Yoyo, the eldest miss is worthy of being the eldest miss, and there are people who pamper you wherever you go."
The next guitarist yin and yang responded with a strange anger: "Ahhh, don't say a word, the eldest lady just lost face, be careful that you won't be able to get on stage later."
Ruan Nan did not take the flowers handed over by Gu Xiaoxue and Shan Zhuo, his eyes swept around the bouquets of several people, and soon found that although they were all bouquets of miscellaneous flowers, the highest in the hands of others was only roses. The main flower in the hands of guitarist Wang Yan is a rose.
Wang Yan…
Ruan Nan remembered the girl who failed to cheat in the toilet that day.
Ruan Nan sneered, stretched out his hand to block the flowers handed over by Gu Xiaoxue and the others, walked to Wang Yan, stretched out his hand and took out the rose: "I never hold such a cheap rose." Then he let go of his hand and put it directly. The flower was thrown in the trash can next to it.
Only then did Gu Xiaoxue and the others realize that something was wrong with the flowers. This was obviously a girl who specially sent flowers to Wang Yan and humiliated Ruan Nan along the way.
Gu Xiaoxue also pouted, and angrily smashed the bunch of flowers on her boyfriend.
A scheming drama ended, and no one lost or won, but it was just a free viewing.
The solo show on stage is coming to an end, and the two groups of contestants "Midsummer" and "Under the Clear Sky" are getting ready.
Under the clear sky, they are all freshmen and sophomores, and the families who play music are not short of money, and they are quite reckless. They chose a difficult song, and the style of the song was bursting and lively. After the announcement, the whole scene was ignited to the extreme. Everyone is showing themselves as best they can, and the female drummer threw up the drumsticks at the last climax—
The result did not catch.
However, the small details did not affect the whole too much. At the end of the song, the judges quickly gave a high score.
When it was "Midsummer"'s turn to take the stage, the host deliberately created an atmosphere and went to Shan Zhuo: "As a senior and the leader of the Midsummer band, does Shan Zhuo have anything to say to the junior group? Seeing the new star opponent With such a strong strength, will you feel some pressure?"
Shan Zhuo smiled, and his face was projected on the big screen. Shan Zhuo belongs to the kind of person who is not very outstanding in appearance, but has the unique temperament of a musician. The smile at this moment has no other superfluous adjectives except contempt.
He picked up the microphone and said a few words lightly: "I originally wanted to be a newcomer, but now I don't."
The words fell, and soon the audience was boiling.
Instead of choosing a pure roaring music like in the clear sky, Midsummer came up with an original piece of the band.
The brightness of the big screen decreased, and the audience slowly returned to calm. The lights fell slowly, focusing on the center of the stage, and a clean and hoarse voice came. The music seemed to carry a light, leading everyone to a path.
At both ends of the long road, the starting point and the end point cannot be clearly seen.
All the musical instruments sounded together, as if someone was walking behind them, their passion was unwilling to be ordinary, and they shrank in the dark night. They have been on the road, taking a long time to accept themselves.
After finishing the last rhythm, Ruan Nan put down his drumsticks and looked down the stage.
Still didn't show up.
Midsummer won the first place in the band group unexpectedly. After the game ended, the audience left, and many campus media rushed to interview. Everyone simply answered a few sentences, and when they asked Ruan Nan, the question happened to be: "When the melody of this song was playing in your ears, what were you thinking?"
Ruan Nan paused and shook his head: "I didn't think of anything."
It was extremely cold at night in November. Gu Xiaoxue put on the clothes handed over by her boyfriend. Shan Zhuo asked if she wanted to send her back. Ruan Nan looked away and said that his car was in the parking lot.
Ruan Nan walked to the backstage, put the black windbreaker on his body, put his mobile phone in his pocket, and went out with the crowd.
Outside, I don't know which media's interview has not left, and they have been blocked at the door, which directly hindered the movement of the crowd. The crowd was getting bigger and bigger, and Ruan Nan frowned. She didn't know which contestant was so charming tonight. I'm not in the mood to join in the fun, and as soon as I go out, I want to leave quickly.
"Aruan."
Someone called her.
Ruan Nan stopped, and the crowd who had just blocked in the middle immediately gave way. Several girls who were stuck in the middle could not wait to evaporate directly, pushing each other to the side.
Ye Feng coldly brushed his face, the lights of the activity center chased behind him through the door, and his sight crossed the blocking crowd, Ruan Nan saw Qin Juan.
Surrounded by the crowd, Qin actually held a large bunch of broken white stars. The long black hair was draped around her waist, and the bright starlight fell on her delicate face. The long trench coat outlined a capable figure.
The flowers gently swept in one direction with the wind, Qin actually looked at Ruan Nan, as if the nervous expression had relaxed at this moment, and a gentle smile changed between her brows and eyes, and she walked slowly towards Ruan Nan:
"Sorry, I'm late."
