After Ji Zeyu received the task of recording a vlog, he took a handheld camera and took pictures here and there. He recorded a lot of useless content, such as eating breakfast with Qi Aodong, playing game consoles with Xiao Huai, and asking Gu Weicheng to perform abdominal exercises. He opened bottle caps and used fake props to scare Bai Shengjie into tears...
They were all very childish daily routines, and Ji Zeyu couldn't think of anything to do.
After filming the scraps of footage, Ji Zeyu thought about taking turns saying good night to his roommates, and suddenly felt a big headache.
He has never done this kind of thing in reality. It's okay to say these two words on the chat software, but it feels very strange to say it in person.
However, Ji Zeyu still mustered up the courage to do it.
After turning off the lights at night, Xiao Huai lay on the bed wearing a vest, fixed his gray-blue hair with a cartoon hairband, and prepared to fall asleep.
Ji Zeyu held a handheld camera outside the dormitory door and whispered to the camera: "I now have to complete the task given to me by my fans and say good night to my roommates."
After finishing speaking, Ji Zeyu walked in, his eyes first locked on Xiao Huai's bed.
He walked to Xiao Huai's bed, bent down and poked his cheek, and said softly: "Xiao Huai, are you asleep?"
Xiao Huai opened his eyes and saw the equipment in Ji Zeyu's hand, and immediately understood that he wanted to record a vlog. Xiao Huai shook his head and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"A fan gave me a task," Ji Zeyu scratched his head and said sheepishly, "Say good night to my roommate."
Xiao Huai was stunned for a moment, and the other two roommates seemed to have no reaction.
"Then tell me." Xiao Huai lay down happily, like a kindergarten kid, "But I have to make a request."
Ji Zeyu asked: "What's the request?"
"Tell me a bedtime story." Xiao Huai turned into a child completely.
"Are you..." Ji Zeyu wanted to say that he was sick, but because of the camera, he still didn't say it, "Okay, what story do you want to hear?"
"Well...just Cinderella." Xiao Huai said.
Ji Zeyu resisted the urge to roll his eyes, sat beside Xiao Huai's bed, and told the Cinderella story perfunctorily, changing the name of the second sister in it to Xiao Huai.
After finishing speaking, Xiao Huai nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good night, Xiao Yu. But don't add drama to me next time, thank you."
"Good night." Ji Zeyu said softly.
After finishing speaking, Ji Zeyu took the camera to find Wei Yichen.
Wei Yichen was wearing simple white pajamas and had the habit of wearing a steam eye mask while sleeping. He casually took off his eye mask and acted gentle in front of the camera. He smiled and said good night, but his eyes stayed on the side of Ji Zeyu's face.
After Ji Zeyu said good night to Wei Yichen, Wei Yichen took out some eye masks from the bedside table and handed them to him: "This eye mask is very useful. Do you want to try it?"
Because he was worried about the finals, the quality of Ji Zeyu's sleep recently was indeed not very good. In addition, he was filming a vlog, so he reached out and took the steam eye mask, which had a faint smell of mint. He whispered to Wei Yichen: "Thank you, Yichen."
Wei Yichen's patience and gentleness also made Ji Zeyu feel a little guilty.
Ji Zeyu had been carefully distancing himself from Wei Yichen during this period, but the other party behaved calmly and generously and tolerated him in every detail of life.
After saying good night to his two roommates, Ji Zeyu looked at Lu Nanyun's bed and found that his back was turned to him and he seemed to have fallen asleep.
Ji Zeyu walked over cautiously, mustering up the courage to call Lu Nanyun's name, but in the end he still couldn't say it.
Ji Zeyu looked at Lu Nanyun's side face with his eyes closed and thought, since Lu Nanyun fell asleep, maybe next time...
So Ji Zeyu put away his camera and went to wash up and go to bed silently.
There was no movement on Lu Nanyun's bed, and he seemed to be asleep.
Ji Zeyu was busy practicing the next day and temporarily put the incident behind him.
After Qi Aodong's guidance, Ji Zeyu seemed to have found some clues. When he and Luo Ming were practicing, he tried to use his eyes to guide each other, but due to his lack of proficiency, he did not achieve particularly good results.
Luo Ming asked Ji Zeyu during a break: "Why do you keep staring at me today?"
Ji Zeyu was speechless for a moment.
"Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
Ji Zeyu turned and walked away silently.
Although his first attempt was met with setbacks, Ji Zeyu did not give up and worked hard to learn to communicate with his dance partner using his eyes.
After practicing with Luo Ming several times, Ji Zeyu seemed to slowly find the feeling.
Along with the music, Ji Zeyu gradually immersed himself in the dance movements. He imagined that he was on the doomsday battlefield, and Luo Ming was his only comrade, and he had to trust him.
There is no language in dance, eyes and body are the only means of communication.
Unknowingly, Ji Zeyu's eyes changed.
Luo Ming noticed the change in the other party.
In one movement, Ji Zeyu and Luo Ming's eyes met, making Luo Ming stunned.
The young man's eyes were amber, clean and pure, and he looked straight at Luo Ming. His eyes seemed to contain a lot of emotions, but they seemed to have no emotions at all.
The only thing that was certain was that at this moment, Ji Zeyu only had Luo Ming in his eyes.
After Luo Ming was lost for a moment, he forgot his next move.
"What's wrong with you?" Ji Zeyu looked at Luo Ming, "Have you become a fool in practice?"
Luo Ming thought to himself that he must have been hallucinating just now, otherwise why would he think Ji Zeyu was good-looking
In the following exercises, Ji Zeyu was able to enter the state easily, but Luo Ming seemed unnatural because of this.
After watching the rehearsal of the two, the dance teacher frowned slightly and said, "Luo Ming, your state is not quite right. You are still lacking something overall."
Luo Ming glanced at the boy beside him unconsciously.
Ji Zeyu's bangs were wet with sweat and he was drinking water calmly. His cheeks were slightly hot, which made his skin look fairer and smoother. His amber eyes had a faint sense of alienation, not as captivating as when he was dancing.
After a moment, Luo Ming looked away and said apologetically: "I... I will try my best."
"Hurry up," the dance teacher continued, "There are only ten days left before the finals. In addition to the double stage, you have other stage performances to prepare for. And the finals are live broadcast, so your dancing shortcomings will be magnified. "
Luo Ming and Ji Zeyu both nodded obediently.
After the teacher left, Ji Zeyu glanced at Luo Ming and found that he looked a little depressed, and his dirty orange hair looked dull.
"Don't worry." Ji Zeyu comforted, "At least there was progress today."
"Alas." Luo Ming sighed and said distressedly, "If the whole process is broadcast live, I can't add filters. Then I will have to work harder when putting on makeup."
Ji Zeyu: "..." He really thinks too much.
Although Luo Ming appeared to be carefree, after Ji Zeyu left the dance studio in the evening, he stayed alone and continued practicing.
With Ji Zeyu not around, Luo Ming felt much more relaxed.
However, while practicing, those amber eyes appeared uncontrollably in his mind.
Luo Ming froze on the spot. After a moment, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his expression was a little at a loss.
Why does he care so much about Ji Zeyu
On the other side, Ji Zeyu went back to the dormitory to take a shower. After washing, he was ready to go to bed, but suddenly he remembered that the vlog clip had not been finished yet.
Ji Zeyu glanced at Lu Nanyun and found that he had just gone to bed and was not asleep yet.
So, Ji Zeyu wore pajamas, picked up the handheld camera, ran to the bathroom, closed the door, and whispered to the mirror: "Because classmate Xiao Lu was too aloof, I didn't dare to disturb him last night. Today I challenge Xiao Lu. Good night." His expression looked a little nervous.
Ji Zeyu walked out of the bathroom. Because the lights were turned off, the room was relatively dark. He took out a pumpkin-shaped desk lamp given by the program crew and walked softly to Lu Nanyun's bed. His heartbeat accelerated unconsciously.
The two of them had not spoken since their unhappy breakup on the balcony that day.
Ji Zeyu thought, after saying good night, would Lu Nanyun just tell him to get out? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become more nervous.
Arriving at Lu Nanyun's bed, Ji Zeyu whispered: "Lu Nanyun, are you asleep?"
After hearing this, Lu Nanyun opened his eyes in the dim light and looked at Ji Zeyu, his eyes were narrow and lazy.
Ji Zeyu held the camera and pumpkin lamp and said at a loss: "Uh, can I record a vlog with you?"
"Record it." Lu Nanyun said calmly, with no emotion in his voice.
Ji Zeyu placed the pumpkin lamp in his hand next to Lu Nanyun's pillow, and at the same time sat on the edge of the bed with some restraint, trying not to touch Lu Nanyun's body.
Ji Zeyu held up the handheld camera and felt that the brightness was not enough, so he reached out to increase the brightness of the desk lamp until he could clearly see the two people's faces.
"It's eleven o'clock in the evening. I'm here to say good night to Xiao Lu." Ji Zeyu pretended to be calm and said, then turned to look at Lu Nanyun after a moment, "Do you have any bedtime habits?"
"No." Lu Nanyun replied coldly.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little cold.
"Uh, do you want to tell you a story?" Ji Zeyu's mind twitched and he asked an embarrassing question.
But what surprised him was that Lu Nanyun did not refuse, but gave a low "hmm".
Ji Zeyu was even more embarrassed. He glanced at the pumpkin-shaped desk lamp, cleared his throat, and now made up a short story called "The Adventures of the Little Pumpkin", which told the story of a little pumpkin who went through hardships and found true love.
After finishing speaking, Lu Nanyun had no reaction and his expression was very calm.
After Ji Zeyu finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Lu Nanyun, and whispered, "Good night, Xiao Lu."
Lu Nanyun said nothing.
Ji Zeyu reminded softly: "Xiao Lu, you have to say good night to the camera..."
"Come closer." Lu Nanyun suddenly said, his tone as calm as water.
Ji Zeyu was stunned for a moment, then moved his body so that the camera was closer to Lu Nanyun.
Suddenly, Lu Nanyun whispered something.
He spoke so softly that Ji Zeyu couldn't hear clearly, so he had to gently lean his ear towards him and asked in confusion: "What did you say?"
Lu Nanyun said nothing and stared at Ji Zeyu's profile.
A few seconds later, just when Ji Zeyu thought Lu Nanyun didn't want to talk, a big hand suddenly reached out, grabbed the handle of the handheld camera in his hand, took the camera away, and put it aside.
Ji Zeyu looked at Lu Nanyun in surprise. Only then did he realize how close the two were.
Lu Nanyun was lying down, and Ji Zeyu was sitting on the edge of the bed, bending slightly and lowering his head close to Lu Nanyun. Under the warm yellow light of the desk lamp, each of them could see their own reflection in the other's eyes.

Just when Ji Zeyu was lost in thought, Lu Nanyun did something that shocked him even more.
Lu Nanyun opened the quilt on his chest with one hand, gently lifted the quilt, then passed behind Ji Zeyu and covered him and himself under the quilt.
The pumpkin-shaped table lamp next to the pillow slowly rolled into the quilt due to the collision, and the light shone through the gaps in the quilt.
Ji Zeyu supported the bed with his hands, eyes widened, and looked blankly at Lu Nanyun. The other person's face looked more handsome and three-dimensional under the interplay of lights and shadows. Ji Zeyu suspected for a moment that he was dreaming.
"I said..." Lu Nanyun opened her thin lips lightly and looked straight into Ji Zeyu's eyes, her Adam's apple rolled slightly, "I want to hear you say good night again."
Ji Zeyu said blankly: "Say it again? Why..."
The soft quilt created a small space for the two of them. He could smell the light perfume on Lu Nanyun's body, feel his own abnormal heartbeat, and his rapidly rising body temperature.
The little jack-o-lantern seemed to be getting brighter now, illuminating the two people on the bed, making him feel nervous unconsciously. He wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide.
Lu Nanyun stared at him silently.
"Because you didn't say good night to me yesterday." After a while, Lu Nanyun pursed his lips and said softly, "You said it to both of them."
"So... you still owe me something."
The voice was very soft, a little hoarse, and a little unconsciously jealous. In a space with only two people, it was like a spell that made Ji Zeyu lose all his ability to think.
