Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Who is in the same room with whom

The dormitory is not far from the company. It takes ten minutes by car to reach a residential area.

A three-story villa where fifteen trainees live.

In fact, just half a month ago, this was not the trainees' dormitory.

In the past, the trainees would go home directly after practice, but after the company decided on the debut plan half a month ago, they had all the trainees live together.

On the one hand, it is easy to manage, and on the other hand, it can also cultivate feelings.

Although it may sound funny that these trainees have been training together for four years and still need to develop relationships, the trainees don’t spend much time together off-camera.

The trainees have to go to school during the day, and the practice at night and on weekends is divided into many different classes due to the different progress of each trainee. During the winter and summer vacations when they have free time, the trainees also practice at the company during the day and go home to rest at night.

Just as workers don't make friends with their colleagues, the training life of this group of trainees is essentially not much different from work. Therefore, although the relationship between the trainees is good, this good relationship appears particularly restrained and a bit "fake" in front of the camera.

In the early years, the trainees were still young and their personalities were more authentic, so this restraint was not very noticeable. However, as the trainees got older and thought more, this restraint became more obvious.

This is also one of the reasons why the fourth generation "failed".

Yes, now both the company and the fans call the fourth generation a failed generation.

Ding Ling wanted to change this situation, and living in the dormitory was one of the solutions.

If the relationship is not good, it means that you don’t spend enough time together. Living together and spending time together day and night can take the relationship to the next level. Whether it is for a good or bad thing, it can increase the level of discussion.

As more people discuss it, its popularity increases.

Ding Ling’s thinking is so realistic.

The car stopped and the trainees got out in a lively manner.

There are ten rooms in the villa. Except for two rooms occupied by two assistants, the remaining eight rooms are filled with trainees.

Ding Ling brought Lu Yao into the villa, and assistant Li Qiang followed behind carrying Lu Yao's suitcase.

"Bai You, where is your room?" Ding Ling called out to Bai You.

"I'll lead the way." Bai You retracted his foot that was about to go to the bathroom and turned to walk upstairs.

Qiu Yuge was the first to hear the conversation between Bai You and Ding Ling. "Sister Ling, Lu Yao wants to live in the same room with Bai You?"

"right."

"Huh?" Qiu Yuge's face shrank upon hearing this, and he was very unhappy. "Bai You doesn't like living with others."

"I know." Ding Ling reminded Cong'an not to run around the house, then turned back to talk to Qiu Yuge, "But there aren't enough rooms right now. We have to pair up two people. Only Bai You's room is still empty."

"Then I can room with Bai You," Qiu Yuge immediately added, "and Lu Yao and Wang Mingzhi can room."

"It's all fine." Ding Ling didn't care who lived with whom. She looked at Bai You and Lu Yao, "What do you think?"

Qiu Yuge looked at Bai You.

Bai You hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's just leave it that way. It's troublesome to move around."

Qiu Yuge: "You don't want to live with me?"

"Oh, no." Bai You thought something was wrong as soon as he finished speaking. Now when he looked at Qiu Yuge's expression, as expected, the other party was frowning. Although it looked no different from before, Bai You understood Qiu Yuge and knew that Qiu Yuge was very upset now. He wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say in front of Ding Ling and Lu Yao.

Simply change the subject and look at Lu Yao, "Lu Yao, how do you want to live?"

Lu Yao glanced at Qiu Yuge, then at Bai You. Bai You's face was filled with visible anxiety, while Qiu Yuge stared at Bai You. When he saw Bai You looking at him, he looked over and said, "I don't live with Wang Mingzhi."

"Okay then, Lu Yao and Bai You will stay." Two against one, Ding Ling made the final decision.

The matter was resolved, and Ding Ling urged to go upstairs. Qiu Yuge followed behind with an expressionless face, staring straight at Bai You's back. Bai You felt like his back was about to be stared through.

After going upstairs, Ding Ling looked around and confirmed that there was an empty bed in Bai You's room. "You will sleep here from now on." After instructing Lu Yao, she also instructed Li Qiang, "You should pay more attention. Call me anytime if you have any questions."

Li Qiang nodded, "Okay."

After finishing her business, Ding Ling left in a hurry. Li Qiang roughly confirmed the missing items in the room and went downstairs to the basement to get bedding.

Only Lu Yao, Bai You and Qiu Yuge were left on the third floor.

The atmosphere between Bai You and Qiu Yuge was obviously not right. Lu Yao took a step back, gave them space, and walked into the room carrying his suitcase.

The room is not big, only about ten square meters. There are two single beds on the left and right, two wardrobes at the head of the bed, a table by the window, and another table in the gap between the two beds.

The bed by the window is now fully furnished with bedding, and the table is also full of things, while the bed by the wall only has a mattress. It is obvious that the bed by the window is where Bai You is sleeping now.

Lu Yao parked the suitcase against the wall and didn't rush to pack it. He sat down on the mattress.

Outside the door, Bai You and Qiu Yuge were in a stalemate, while inside the door, Lu Yao closed his eyes and was in a daze.

After a while, voices were heard outside the door.

"Why are you still here? Go and pack up and get ready for rest." It was not Bai You and Qiu Yuge, but Li Qiang who went downstairs to get bedding.

He crossed the gap between the two of them, entered Bai You's room, put the bedding on the empty bed, and asked Lu Yao, "Can you make the quilt?"

Lu Yao had opened his eyes when Li Qiang went upstairs. Now, watching Li Qiang enter and put his things away, he nodded and said, "I will."

"Then make the bed first, and I'll get you some toiletries."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Qiang."

Li Qiang came and went in a hurry, passing between Bai You and Qiu Yuge again, and did not forget to remind them again: "Go wash up quickly." After that, there was a series of footsteps coming down the stairs.

Then the door closed and Bai You entered the room.

Lu Yao turned his head and saw that the door of the room opposite was closed, and Qiu Yuge was no longer outside.

Bai You took two steps in the room, then stood in the middle and began to speak. "This half is mine, and this half is yours." He drew his hand between the two beds and said, "That's your wardrobe. There are some of my clothes in there right now. I'll take them out soon, and you can put yours there. And this is your desk. It was here before, but I felt it was a bit in the way, so I put it here. If you find it inconvenient, you can move it somewhere else."

Bai You introduced the items in the room one by one. When he finished, he made a final emphasis: "I don't like others touching my things, so don't touch these. Similarly, I won't touch yours."

Lu Yao stood by the bed and made sure Bai You had finished all the introductions before nodding and responding, "I understand."

After saying this, Bai You breathed a sigh of relief and smiled politely at Lu Yao, "Then you take your time to clean up. I'll go wash up first."

"OK."

To be honest, Lu Yao had nothing to pack. Bai You had already divided the area, and he only needed to put his belongings in his own area. In just a few moments, the suitcase was empty, and the things inside were moved to other places. Then Lu Yao began to make the bed.

When Bai You came back after washing up, he saw an empty bed with extra bedding in the room. Everything else was the same as before he left, even his new roommate was nowhere to be seen.

"Bai You, where is Lu Yao?" Li Qiang's voice rang out while Bai You was blowing her hair.

Bai You turned around and saw Li Qiang standing in the room with toiletries. Lu Yao was nowhere to be seen. "I don't know."

Li Qiang didn't get an answer, so he turned and walked out. Bai You thought about it, put down the hair dryer and followed him out.

As soon as I went out, I saw people.

Lu Yao was sitting in the living room on the third floor, not knowing what he was doing.

When they got closer, Bai You realized that Lu Yao seemed to be playing chess.
