Chapter 34 Chapter 34 The Concert Ends
The two-hour concert ended quickly.
As soon as the concert ended, various discussions quickly emerged on the Internet, and posts appeared one after another in the forums.

Thank you for your hard work, OP.
【3rd floor】
The number of stages... why some have more and some have less, it's really hard to imagine
【4th floor】
Those who say that there is no ranking in the fifth generation, take a look. Jiang Mu and Lu Jianian only have one stage. Don’t they want to go on stage?
[5th floor]
Minghui Entertainment's actions are too obvious. Qiu Yuge has five stages, but there are only two people on one stage. What are they thinking?
6th Floor
But the fans in the upper circles spent so much money, so they really can’t miss out on the stage.

Then should others serve as foils?

LZ was at the scene, and I have to say, LZ was amazed
[1st floor]
+1 on the scene, I feel the same as the original poster
【2nd floor】
Acting very cool
【3rd floor】
Is it that amazing? Wait for a wave of straight shots
【4th floor】
You can tell how well it performed by looking at the super topic. As soon as the concert ended, there were ten new fansites. Needless to say, how valuable it was.

Are these all newly opened sites?

Yes, now when I refresh the super topic, it is full of pictures and live shots of Lu Yao's concert. It can be seen that many people climbed the wall for this concert
7th Floor
When that face is shown on the big screen, it is hard not to be overwhelmed. I only knew that Lu Yao was good-looking before, but I didn’t expect that he was so good-looking.

The discussion on the forum was in full swing, and Weibo naturally couldn't be idle either. Shen Sisi was now like a hamster that had fallen into a barn, with food everywhere. She was so happy that she was almost crying.
After the concert, she and Song Rui did not hang out in the unfamiliar Tianhua or go out for a midnight snack. Instead, they went straight to the hotel, took out their cameras and started directing videos.
The performance at the concert was so shocking that they couldn't calm down for a long time.
If we ask who performed the best in this concert, it is naturally a matter of personal preference and everyone has their own answer. But if we ask who performed the most unexpectedly, there is undoubtedly only one answer - Lu Yao.
Shen Sisi still remembers that as soon as Lu Yao appeared during the opening dance, she couldn't take her eyes off him.
If Lu Yao in the material is a well-behaved and cute younger brother, then Lu Yao on the stage is the focus of attention. Once you see him, it is impossible not to look at him.
Every move she makes exudes charm, making people unable to look away.
He doesn't look like a trainee who just started training at all. Shen Sisi would believe that he is a trainee who has been there since the fifth generation was revealed.
Very well performed.
In the opening pure dance "CRAZY", Lu Yao's dance moves are crisp and clear, and his expression management is even more amazing. Almost every frown and smile tells us what CRAZY is.
On the subsequent singing and dancing performance of "FIRE," Lu Yao was equally impressive against the backdrop of the two main dancers, Bai You and Qiao Sinian. In Shen Sisi's eyes, he was even more eye-catching than the two of them. Not to mention Lu Yao's final solo. As soon as he opened his mouth, Shen Sisi finally understood what heavenly music was.
The whole group's performance of "Neon Lights" and the girl group's dance to "Chocolate" in the middle surprised Shen Sisi even more. After showing the powerful dance of "CRAZY" and the explosive singing and dancing of "FIRE", the completely different styles of "Neon Lights" and "Chocolate" were also presented perfectly. When performing "Neon Lights", Shen Sisi shouted "Queen", while when dancing to "Chocolate", Lu Yao completely turned into a little sister.
What impressed Shen Sisi the most was undoubtedly "Peerless Martial Arts." Lu Yao's series of somersaults at the opening drew gasps from the audience, and the subsequent dance performance, combined with martial arts moves, was even more surprising. Shen Sisi almost thought she was watching a martial arts film, not a performance at a concert.
In the final full-member stage performance of "You Are By My Side", Lu Yao had very few parts, but in Shen Sisi's lens, Lu Yao did not relax at all because of the short part. He always maintained his state, and every frame was so perfect.
After watching the entire concert, Shen Sisi felt proud of Lu Yao, but at the same time sad for the few performances he had on stage.
But soon, she cheered up again. Lu Yao had just been made public and his popularity was still low. This was only his first concert and it would definitely get better and better in the future!

The fans were immersed in the afterglow of the concert. After Ding Ling gave instructions on the things that needed to be dealt with, she immediately took Lu Yao to the hospital.
There was no one else following, only her, Li Qiang, and Lu Yao.
When they arrived at the hospital, the same doctor was there from yesterday. Ding Ling and Li Qiang wanted to watch, but were driven out by the doctor.
"You're affecting my performance here!"
Ding Ling: "..."
Li Qiang: “…”
What else could they say? Of course they would follow the doctor's orders.
The door was closed, the doctor cut open Lu Yao's clothes and removed the bandages. When he saw Lu Yao's injuries, he sighed deeply.
Lu Yao seemed to have anticipated the doctor's reaction. He smiled at the doctor and said, "Thank you, doctor."
"It's your decision, no need to thank me."
Lu Yao lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Although it was his own decision, it would not have been easy for him to go on stage if the doctor had not spoken up.
After re-stitching the wound, the doctor said, "You really can't do any strenuous exercise this time."
"Got it." Lu Yao put on his clothes and stood up, "Thank you, doctor."
"Okay, let's go." The doctor waved his hand and didn't want to talk anymore.
When they left the ward, they saw Ding Ling and Li Qiang walking around outside with worried looks on their faces. When they saw Lu Yao come out safely, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Lu Yao only sutured the wound and did not do anything else, somehow, the two of them were always worried. They only felt relieved when they saw the other person coming out.
After getting the medicine, the three of them drove to the restaurant instead of returning directly to the hotel.
Although I was very tired after the concert, the constant pressure needed to be released, and a celebration party after the concert was essential.
The trainees in the private room had already started eating. When they saw Lu Yao coming late, Cong An was the first to start teasing him: "Why are you here just now? Have a drink, have a drink!" Although he was young, he had learned all the bad habits of adults.
Luo Wenbo patted Cong'an's hand with his chopsticks. Cong'an curled his lips but still sat down. Of course he knew that they couldn't drink alcohol, and the only drinks on their table were milk and juice, but the atmosphere, do you know what atmosphere is!
Bai You and Qiu Yuge were able to truly relax only after seeing Lu Yao return safely.
If we were to ask who was the most nervous today besides Ding Ling, Bai You would definitely be one of them.
Bai You still remembers the voice Lu Yao sounded in his ear yesterday. He had no idea what had happened. When the voice sounded, he was already being held back by Lu Yao.
Only now did he realize that given the distance between him and the cage yesterday, if Lu Yao hadn't pushed him back, he would have been the one scratched by the thorns.
Lu Yao was injured while trying to save him.
When he thought of this, Bai You couldn't help but blame himself. If he had been more careful, if he had paid more attention, no one would have been hurt.
Qiu Yuge saw Bai You's hand holding the spoon tightening, so he quickly reached out and held his hand.
When Bai You looked at him, he shook his head slightly, silently comforting him.
'It's not your fault.'
Bai You pulled up the corners of his mouth and laughed dryly. He wanted to find Lu Yao to say something, but he knew that now was not the time, so he could only suppress his restless heart and start eating.
Cang Zizhen had already reserved the seat next to Lu Yao. Now that Lu Yao came in, he quickly waved to Lu Yao to come over.
“Here, here!”
There were two round tables in the private room, one for the staff and one for the trainees. There were sixteen trainees in total, and the round table was completely full. After Lu Yao sat down, there was really no empty seat left.
"Let's celebrate the successful conclusion of the concert!"
Ding Ling stood up and spoke, and everyone cheered. The trainees picked up the water cups beside them and toasted, and Lu Yao also raised the cup full of milk.
After the concert, the pressure on the trainees finally dissipated.
In fact, the concert itself does not make them feel pressured, but the short time to prepare for the concert does make them feel pressured.
The accumulating fatigue and the approaching time will have a greater impact on one's mentality if the practice condition is not good.
Fortunately, it's all over.
Wanyuanzhou opened a can of Coke, tilted his head back and took a big gulp.
"Cool!"
Then, sensing Cong An's eager gaze, he smirked, "Minors, carbonated drinks, prohibited!"
Cang Zizhen asked Lu Yao for advice on some moves, "How long did you practice that somersault today?"
"Not long."
"Can I learn?"
"Can."
Cangzi was really excited, "How long will it take to learn?"
Lu Yao calculated and said, "For you, two years of practice should be enough."
Cang Zizhen: "..."
His "not long" and Lu Yao's "not long" may not be the same time unit.
Qiao Sinian came over with a tablet, "Lu Yao, do you want to eat anything? More dishes."
Lu Yao shook his head.
"What about you?" Qiao Sinian asked Cang Zizheng.
Cang Zizhen took the tablet, flipped through the menu, picked and chose, and then handed the tablet back to Qiao Sinian.
Qiao Sinian walked past each person one by one, asked questions, and then handed the tablet to the waiter.
Practice, concerts, celebrations, different stages and different things have just come to an end at this moment. Although there will be new work to do when we wake up tomorrow, at this moment, everyone's heart is filled with the most relaxed joy.
There is no fatigue from practice, no pressure of time, only relaxation after the stage and the joy of seeing fans.
IDOL is the profession that receives the most love in the world, and they are on the road to becoming this profession.
This road may be full of thorns, but at this moment they have also harvested many flowers full of love.
With a group of underage trainees present, the celebration party naturally didn't last too long. After everyone finished their meal, it dispersed.
Sitting in the car back to the hotel, the trainees, who had been excited all day, also felt tired. With a slight swaying, everyone gradually fell asleep.
Lu Yao sat in the passenger seat, sitting upright under Ding Ling's stern gaze, not letting his back touch the backrest. Sun Yutong held the computer and checked the online discussions.
