I Became the Group's Favorite After Joining a Talent Show

Due to tuition fees, Ye Ying joined a talent show. She was initially prepared to take the prize money and get eliminated in the first round. Unexpectedly, she became a huge hit and, for some reason...

Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Cold War

Finally, the live broadcast ended hastily. The assistant director of the program also told about the unexpected situation and rushed over to scold He Xizhou: "Tell me, how can you change your temper?"

He Xizhou frowned: "She cursed in front of me, can I pretend to see it?"

"You could have just gone up there!" The assistant director was heartbroken. "As a member of the public, you should be extra careful with your words and actions! After all, she is still your fan, but you just said that she has no manners. Do you know how many fans you will lose with just this one sentence?"

"Why, she's my father and my mother, I have to put up with her scolding me?" He Xizhou sneered, "I hope this kind of fan will stop following her, do you think I care?"

The assistant director took a deep breath and looked like he was about to have a heart attack. He pulled He Xizhou to take out his phone and showed it to him: "You are so stubborn! Look at you, you are even on the hot search list..."

Ye Ying's eyebrows were still furrowed as she asked the staff in a low voice, "Can I see my phone?"

The girl nodded and handed him her phone. Ye Ying opened Weibo and saw that the topic #贺西洲直播怼粉# had quickly entered the top ten and the discussion was increasing.

[Don't rush to curse if you come in, first understand the cause and effect: He Xizhou was interacting with other students in the program during the live broadcast, and then a fan scolded the student in person for taking advantage of the popularity and asked him to get out of the live broadcast room, which made He Xizhou angry. I think he did nothing wrong in this matter. Fans who cursed for no reason are really uncultured.]

[Imagine that your good friend was told to get lost for no reason. Would you be angry? ? Saying that she has no manners is an understatement. If it were me, I would rush up to her and scold her to death]

[Duwei is really reasonable. It is your brother's freedom to hang out with whomever he wants. It is none of your business. You even want to control who your idol makes friends with. Who do you think you are?]

[I'm nice to He Xizhou. Many people will choose to pretend to see this situation, after all, they are willing to offend their fans. Idols can tolerate some fans unconditionally for the sake of popularity and image, but that will only make toxic fans and sasaengs more rampant. The stinky atmosphere in the fan circle is brought about by them! ]

[He Xizhou is really good to his friends. I love his character!]

Most fans expressed understanding and support for He Xizhou's behavior, but some people also expressed sadness.

[I waited so long for a live broadcast, but you were absent-minded the whole time. It’s okay to pull someone in for no reason, but you scolded fans for him... Suddenly I feel that we are not important at all in your heart, so let it be.]

[I have always been a fan of He Xizhou. Although I know he may be older than me, I also want to see him be so kind to others. Especially what happened tonight, I really accept it.]

[I’m no longer a fan. I understand why you treat us like this for a boy. I feel like all the love and dedication I’ve given you over the years is just a joke.]

[Why are you scolding that fan? Is she wrong? Is Ye Ying just trying to gain popularity? ? I like He Xizhou, only He Xizhou. I look for every shot of him in every episode. Eighty percent of the time, Ye Ying is next to him! I look forward to a live broadcast, but Ye Ying is in it! Do you know the feeling of being haunted? I just hate him and want to see him. Am I wrong! ? ]

[What's funny is that the Ye fans next door have already put up a slogan to compete for the C position. We wholeheartedly voted for He Xizhou and wanted to give him all the best, but he ended up scolding us for the person who wanted to compete with him for the C position! Should we be disappointed? Just because we like him, do we deserve to be so humble? ! ]

[I just want to ask, why did you hug him in the end? Why did you hug him? ? I don’t know, is it really necessary for male friends to be so close? ! ]

Ye Ying's breathing was suffocated for a moment, and her eyes hurriedly moved away from the words.

The two sides were arguing fiercely, and it seemed that everyone had some truth in what they said. Perhaps this matter was already clear who was right and who was wrong, because people with the same position can never feel the same way.

The staff member carefully looked at Ye Ying's face and asked worriedly, "Yingying, are you okay? This matter actually has nothing to do with you. Some fans are just rational."

"It's okay." Ye Ying handed her the phone, "Thank you."

On the other hand, He Xizhou, under the nagging of the assistant director like a curse, surrendered and posted a Weibo post using his own account.

[Dream Project - He Xizhou v: I am sorry that I could not accompany you to the end of the live broadcast just now, and I am also sorry for bringing you a pleasant experience. I also hope that my fans can respect me while liking me, and do not use malicious intent to speculate and attack my friends. I will sing for you next time, and I wish you happiness every day.]

Fans in the comments below expressed their support and consolation, and the program production team also spent money to remove the trending search, and the matter is over.

The two returned to the dormitory together. He Xizhou skillfully hooked his arm around the boy and rubbed his hair twice: "Are you okay?"

Ye Ying smiled and said, "I'm fine." He paused and said, "I'm the one who caused you trouble. You don't need to protect me in this situation.

"That's fine." He Xizhou turned his head and said to him seriously, "I can make you suffer."

Ye Ying blinked her eyelashes quickly, He Xizhou smiled and rubbed him twice, then took her back to the dormitory.

__

The next day, Yue Chen finally found his form again. Ye Ying also deeply realized how terrifying this man's strength was - an excellent dancer can only make himself perfect and use his emotions to lead his partner into a good state. It was the first time that Ye Ying immersed herself in it so wholeheartedly. After dancing once, she felt that all the pores in her body were open with excitement, her face was flushed with heat, and her spirit gained an unprecedented satisfaction and accomplishment.

He seemed to be able to appreciate the charm and fun of dance more and more.

"Did you two suddenly start cheating?!"

The four teammates were stunned on the side. After watching the dance segment where Yue Chen and Ye Ying danced together, they got goose bumps all over their bodies and were so excited that they wanted to jump up and dance again!

Ye Ying wiped her sweat with a towel and blinked when she heard it: "Brother is the one who taught me well."

The four of them immediately said: "Brother! Please take me!!"

"I'm tired," Yue Chen rolled his neck, walked to the side with his long legs and sat down to rest, "Play by yourself."

teammate:"……"

Damn it! Your discrimination is obvious!

Ye Ying took a bottle of water and walked over to hand it to Yue Chen, who took it, unscrewed the lid and took a sip, then looked up and said, "I have an idea."

Ye Ying sat down next to him: "What?"

"This choreography is already very complete and has enough highlights, but it lacks a little impact and classic memory." Yue Chen looked at him, "This task will be handed over to you, center."

His tone was lightly teasing, and Guo Yeying was already as afraid of him as before, so she asked generously, "What should I do?"

"I want to add a solo dance for you," Yue Chen said, "Although it is a bit difficult and challenging, as long as it succeeds, I guarantee that our team will get the highest votes in the second performance. What do you think? Do you dare to try?"

Ye Ying looked at him and smiled softly: "Then I'll trouble you to give me some advice."

Before Guo Yuechen could explain the details to him, he received an advertising assignment and left for the time being. Ye Ying practiced the individual part of "Eye of the Storm" by herself. After a short dance, she suddenly saw her teammate Li Zhe smile: "Why do you come to our place every day to inspect our work?"

Ye Ying turned around and saw He Xizhou coming in with his hands in his trouser pockets as if he were at home.

Bai Yang winked at the side and said, "Don't be so self-righteous. He Ge doesn't care about inspecting you. He came to see Xiao Ye."

Who in the camp now knows that He Xizhou and Ye Ying have the best relationship? They eat and live together, even in the same practice room. After practice every day, they have to go back to the dormitory together. They are so close that they are almost one person.

He Xizhou didn't care about their teasing. He walked to Ye Ying's side openly, looked around and raised his eyebrows: "Why are you practicing by yourself? Who's your partner?"

"I was called away for a mission." Ye Ying said, "Why are you here again?"

He Xizhou was pleased: "What do you mean it's here again? Do you dislike me?"

"Yes," Ye Ying asked in a low voice, "Are you busy practicing singing? The song you chose is quite difficult."

He Xizhou: "No matter how big it is, it's hard for me to contain it."

Ye Ying: “…”

"Besides, Li Jingfei is boring. It's boring to be with him," He Xizhou said, poking Ye Ying's face with his hand, "He's not as fun as you."

Ye Ying grabbed his fingers that were messing around, her eyebrows slightly tense. Just when she was about to say "you should sit next to me for a while", He Xizhou said excitedly: "It's good that Yuechen is here, I will be your partner."

Ye Ying: “…”

"What's that? A letter?" He Xizhou said proudly, "I've watched your dance so many times that I already know how to do it."

As he spoke, he danced to the accompaniment of "Eye of the Storm" that was playing in the practice room. He kept the beats precise, moved smoothly, and improvised, which almost made several boys' eyes pop out:

"Fuck, we worked so hard for so many days and we're actually better than you who's only watched it a few times?? That's really discouraging!!"

This learning speed is simply abnormal!!

He Xizhou showed off like a little kid and raised his chin towards Ye Ying: "How is it?"

Ye Ying said sincerely: "Amazing."

"I can also do the double part." He Xizhou was in high spirits, "Come on, Brother He will take you."

Although he said it was easy, he actually practiced this part secretly during breaks.

He must let Ye Ying know that even if Yue Chen is quite capable, he is still better than him!

Ye Ying hesitated for a moment, but the other teammates had already started to make a fuss and wanted to watch. He Xizhou waited for him to respond and had already pulled out a black tie and wrapped it around Ye Ying's neck.

He was extremely skilled in the movements, as if he had simulated them many times in his mind.

The distance between the two people quickly narrowed, and each other's breathing was clearly audible. Ye Ying's body stiffened for a moment, but she saw He Xizhou, who was close to her, with a smile in his eyes, and her hand slid down and gently held his lower back.

Originally, the action here should have been that Ye Ying hooked the other person's collar and pulled him closer, and then was pushed away by the other person struggling. But what happened was that Ye Ying reached out and touched He Xizhou's collar, but instead of pulling him, she gently pushed him out.

He Xizhou was startled, and it became difficult for him to continue what he was doing, and the cooperation between the two of them came to an abrupt end.

"I'm sorry," Ye Ying lowered her eyelashes and said softly, "I made a mistake in my memory."

Several teammates looked at each other in bewilderment. Ye Ying and Yue Chen were the most familiar with their group practice, and they had just danced so well together, so why did they suddenly forget to do it now?

He Xizhou glanced at Ye Ying and said, "Are you tired? Take a break."

Ye Ying nodded and went to get some water. He Xizhou's personality made it possible for him to get along with anyone. He chatted with Li Zhe, Bai Yang and the others about everything under the sun for a while, and gave them some free dance guidance. After waiting for a long time and seeing that Ye Ying had no intention of coming back to continue practicing, he could only wave goodbye to everyone with a little regret.

Ye Ying sent him out, and He Xizhou said, "If Yuechen comes back in the afternoon, call me and I will practice with you."

Ye Ying looked at him: "Yes, Brother He."

He Xizhou frowned: "What?"

"...I can practice with other teammates." Ye Ying said in a low voice, "You can always come to me."

He Xizhou finally realized that Ye Ying's previous indifference was an illusion, and his expression darkened slightly: "What do you mean?"

He has a strong aura, and when he smiles, his eyebrows and eyes are pressed down, which makes him look fierce and fierce. Many people would be scared by his appearance, but Ye Ying is very calm. She looks at the boy and says, "Brother He, I think... we seem to be getting closer."

He Xizhou stared at him intently.

"Don't get me wrong. I'm lucky to have a friend like you, and I'm grateful for your help. I don't have any other intentions." Ye Ying said, "I just think you're good to me... A lot of people who like you might be sad because of this."

He Xizhou's eyebrows relaxed for a moment, and he suddenly smiled: "After all this time, are you talking about what happened last night? I told you long ago that this matter has nothing to do with you, why are you so angry?"

Ye Ying shook her head. "Brother He, maybe because I was rarely liked by others before, I think the support and kindness of fans are very precious. The fan who cursed yesterday was right. She...or should I say, they, acted like that because they care about you. I support such behavior, and I think you should also consider their feelings a little bit."

Young people are full of vigor and they are most afraid of being poured cold water after giving their passionate feelings. He Xizhou's anger suddenly rose again, and he asked with all his strength: "So what do you want? Do you want to break up with me?"

"..." Ye Ying bit her lower lip tightly, and her breathing became more steady, "I think... I think you should be so nice to me again."

He Xizhou didn't say anything. Ye Ying lowered her eyes, twisted her fingers tightly together, and didn't dare to look up at him.

He knew that he had some sense of good and bad, how lucky he was to meet He Xizhou, and he might forget the encouragement and help he had received. He Xizhou was so good, but as long as he was tired of him, he would hate to be a close friend with him for life.

But precisely because he knew how good He Xizhou was, he would like that boy to always be liked by everyone, and he wanted to see a gap and conflict between He Xizhou and his fan group.

He wanted to be the thorn that caused the conflict, and wanted to make such a good person be misunderstood and attacked for no reason because of himself...

"...Okay." He Xizhou gritted his teeth and repeated with a green face, "Okay."

He turned around and strode away. Ye Ying stood alone in the corridor, looking at his back, with redness in the corners of her eyes.

__

Everyone in dormitory 211 discovered that He Xizhou and Ye Ying were having a conflict.

It has become Ye Ying's exclusive job to wake He Xizhou up every morning, because no one else would listen to him when he was called, and only when Ye Ying was there would he be willing and obedient to get up and have breakfast together.

But now Ye Ying's shouting suddenly worked. He Xizhou seemed to have become deaf overnight. He faced the wall and ignored everyone no matter how she called him.

They ate together, went back to the dormitory together after get off work, and even spoke with cold faces in the dormitory - only to Ye Ying.

"Yingying," Xu Qiongzhi couldn't help asking quietly, "What happened to you two? Did you have a fight?"

"It was a quarrel." Ye Ying seemed to be in good spirits these past two days, and forced a smile, "I made him angry."

"According to my observation, He Xizhou looks like he has a bad temper, but he is actually a petty person, and he gets angry easily." Although Xu Qiongzhi had been sticking to Ye Ying all day long, she felt good to see Ye Ying in low spirits, so she gave him some advice, "Besides, if he likes you the most, you should be soft-hearted and coax him more, and he will definitely be fine!"

Ye Ying has been doing this all the time.

As usual, I wake He Xizhou up every day, get him his favorite orange juice after dinner, and ask him for help in washing the class uniforms.

His attitude towards He Xizhou actually remained the same as before, but the other party seemed determined to pay attention to him again.

What he wanted was to restore the distance between them to normal and not be so close again, but the other party... didn't seem willing to continue to be with him.

Ye Ying had nothing to complain about.

...It was he who made the request first, so he had no right to be sad and complain.

After four days of cold war, Li Jingfei had seen enough and asked He Xizhou in the practice room: "If you and Ye Ying have any conflicts, just speak them out and deal with them. They are just children, what's the point of getting angry?"

He Xizhou squinted at him and said, "I like it, what's your business?"

Li Jingfei thought, if this were his own younger brother, he would definitely give him a good beating with a stick.

When the two of them talked, the atmosphere in the whole dormitory became right. Everyone tried their best to liven up the atmosphere in the dormitory. As long as the parties were reconciled, it would be useless for them to try harder.

On this day, all the trainees were notified to suspend their training for one day and shoot a large-scale indoor game variety show, which would be the content of the fifth episode of "Dream Maker Plan".

Training every day is inevitably boring, and everyone is happy to have a chance to play, and they all gather in the training hall.

Pan Li said: "There are 65 of us in total, and we will be divided into teams for a competition. Let's form teams freely first, and then adjust them when we see if the number of people is appropriate."

As soon as he finished speaking, the students stretched their necks and started shouting the names of other students - everyone wanted to be in a group with brothers who they played well with, those who lived in the same dormitory, were in the same performance team or knew each other before, most of them formed a team.

Dormitory 211 was in a group by default. Xu Qiongzhi held Ye Ying with one hand and quickly called out to Qiu Shuang with the other hand: "Brother Shuang, here, here!"

Qiu Shuang came over with a smile and joined them. Yue Chen, Luo Zihui, Qi Rui and others also joined this group. After the teams were divided, Pan Li counted the number of people and said to Ye Ying and their team: "There are too many people in your group. One of you can go to the next group."

Since the division has been made, everyone in that group is familiar with each other, and no one wants to be separated. Everyone looked at each other in surprise, and suddenly a tall boy walked out of the team and went to the side.

The boys in the other group cheered instantly:

"We have He Ge now!!"

He Xizhou, wearing a pure black T-shirt, stood in the opposite team with an expressionless face. He raised his eyes and glanced at Ye Ying indifferently.

Ye Ying had always been a fragile person, and he had seldom shed tears in the past few years. But the moment their eyes met, his heart skipped a beat, as if it was grabbed by something.

His nasal cavity felt sore and at this moment, he felt the urge to cry as never before.
