Chapter 266 World Tour 7.0

Just as the internet was buzzing with discussion about the grand premiere, Xie Qingyu and the members had already changed out of their stage costumes and hurriedly boarded the nanny car to head to the agreed location.

"Why don't they go together?" Wei Liangchen asked weakly, slumped over in his chair, still not fully recovered from his shock.

Xie Qingyu tapped her finger on the phone screen: "It's better to go separately. Too many people will be too eye-catching."

Although the location is quite private, they cannot avoid paparazzi now. They can only rely on whether the people following them have a conscience.

Those with a little sense of public morality will post it online after their dinner, but those without will... retreating halfway is a basic move.

Tonight's premiere attracted many old friends who work in Beijing to come and support it.

The performance ended successfully, giving this group of young people who are usually busy with their own work a rare opportunity to get together.

You know, it was not easy for all seven of them to get together a few days ago.

"I haven't seen Xiu'er and the others in almost half a year," Ding Zai sighed, sipping his yogurt from a straw. "The last time we met on a variety show, it was a quick encounter. We didn't even have time to sit down and chat."

As the member of the group who participates in variety shows more often, Ding Zai can still see some acquaintances quite often. However, he has not seen him for a long time, not to mention the other members.

If they miss today, they will have to set off for the next concert city early tomorrow morning to make advance adaptation preparations.

"Come to think of it," You Jinzhao suddenly turned around from the front row, his eyes gleaming with gossip, "Did you really not know that Zhou Yu'an was secretly playing the crickets?"

"Now we know everything." Gu Qi raised his eyebrows with a smile.

Xie Qingyu lowered his head and chuckled.

He really didn't expect that everyone at the training base would be so eager to perform in private.

However, after debuting for so long, even if you don’t watch the show, the various clips on the Internet have already made those interesting things known to everyone.

Xie Qingyu looked at the flowing light spots outside the window, and his thoughts unconsciously drifted to Wei Ran.

The last time they met was in a mystery variety show, and he almost didn't recognize the other person when he was playing an NPC.

With neat short hair and a tough look in his eyes, he is completely different from the often hesitant and bad-tempered boy in my memory.

I heard that he has recently accepted many acting offers and variety show invitations. Although most of them are supporting roles, his exposure has been steadily increasing, and he is gradually carving out a world for himself.

I wonder what kind of surprises he will bring this time...

Xie Qingyu was thinking, when he caught a glimpse of Leo beside him who had fallen asleep at some point.

He quietly pulled a blanket out of the trunk and carefully covered Leo with it.

"LeLe sent a message saying they've ordered food first," Gu Qi asked in a low voice, "and asked if we have any dietary restrictions?"

"I can do anything."

"Just keep it light."

"Be careful and don't order too much. You're not very hungry now." Xie Qingyu added.

When it comes to taste, if there is a wide variety of dishes, just avoid the ones you don’t like.

After all, what you don’t like to eat may be what others like.

It would be a shame to order too much and waste it.

Judging from the situation, we will probably just have a chat later. If the food is really not enough, it’s not too late to add more dishes.

Gu Qi nodded and lowered his head to reply to the message.

Soon, the nanny car stopped at the door of the reserved restaurant.

Xie Qingyu gently woke Leo up, and several people skillfully put on masks and hats, and entered the restaurant in two or three groups.

The moment the box door was opened, warm cheers came to our faces.

Since they were all old friends, there was no need for formal greetings. Everyone just sat down and started chatting lively.

"Xiu'er, you—"

Ding approached Liu Xiu in a servile manner and looked him up and down exaggeratedly, "You're getting rounder day by day!" As soon as he finished speaking, he was given a roll of the eyes.

"Is it simply because I feel uncomfortable not getting scolded?"

Liu Xiu curled his lips. He didn't want to bother with this person.

Wow, now I have overtaken others, my popularity has increased, and my voice has become much louder.

As he spoke, his eyes swept over Wei Liangchen, who was sitting in his seat with his head drooped and his hands shaking as he drank porridge with a spoon. Seeing this miserable little appearance, Liu Xiu suddenly became energetic:

"Yo, are you out of energy tonight? You probably won't have the energy to act like a dank male ghost tonight, right?"

There was a hint of sourness in his tone.

After all, he doesn't even have many opportunities to perform on stage now, let alone perform in a stadium with tens of thousands of people.

Also, that greenhead fish mug is so ugly!!!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Thinking of the "good things" Wei Liangchen had done in the dormitory, everyone in Room 122 burst into laughter.

The others looked confused. After all, there was no camera recording the incident and no one mentioned it afterwards.

But looking back now, it was indeed both wicked and funny.

As Ding was giving a vivid and engaging lecture, Wei Liangchen heaved a long sigh: "I'm already in this state. When will this cycle of revenge end?"

He was now as sore and weak as an overcooked noodle, and he almost didn't have the strength to speak.

and……

"Did you let anyone in the dormitory go?"

Xie Qingyu coughed lightly, put down his chopsticks, and said seriously, "Xiu, you have to give everyone an explanation for this matter."

He raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Xiu, his eyes full of smiles.

Looking back on the situation at that time, there is no doubt that even a passing mouse would be criticized by Liu Xiu's sharp tongue.

"That's right, we are so innocent." Wei Ran smiled and added some wood to the fire. "I was so kind as to turn on the light~"

"Some people say 'Whoever gets close to me will be unlucky'? That's offensive? Huh?"

Gu Zheng pretended to be unhappy and leaned back in his chair, folded his arms, and raised his chin slightly, "We can't just let this go like this."

On the other side, Ding Zai had already explained the whole story to everyone present in vivid detail.

Everyone cast condemning glances at Wei Liangchen and Liu Xiu - one was too mischievous, and the other was too vicious.

Liu Xiu was not at all disappointed and retorted confidently: "I thought you were all abnormal at the time! Besides, how did I say anything that was unfair to you?"

In his eyes, there was no normal person in the dormitory at that time!

Besides, if we talk about the target of punishment in this room, it is definitely not his turn.

So, he turned around and pointed his finger at Li Luoqi and Zhang Zixuan, who were sitting far away. "Why did you two want to deceive the public?"

Thinking back to how I genuinely fanned the flames, even though it caused Wen Yan, who wasn't present today, to get kicked in the stomach, who knew these two were just talented actors?

All his hard work was in vain!

Speaking of this, Xie Qingyu has a lot to say.

These two were so inseparable during the second public performance that even he, a bystander, felt mixed emotions.

I finally convinced myself to support this (real?) couple, but it turns out to be just a business?

It's outrageous!

The past is too painful to recall. Li Luoqi and Zhang Zixuan now dare not even look back at the scenes from those years.

I didn't feel it when I was trying to create popularity at the time, but now when I think about it, I feel so ashamed that I want to dig my toes into the ground. The two of them tacitly picked up their glasses and drank a glass as punishment.

"So... did you choose the part on purpose?" Xie Qingyu couldn't help laughing and looked at Zhang Zixuan.

To be honest, he almost wanted to report J for anchor Li.

Li Luoqi also glanced at Zhang Zixuan with disgust, and still gets goosebumps when he thinks about it now.

"Yeah." Zhang Zixuan coughed awkwardly.

"Then why didn't you choose 'All Things Natural' at that time?" Leo suddenly asked.

I didn't notice it at the time when we were training separately, but now looking back, Xie Qingyu was obviously not very comfortable in the second public performance team.

This question instantly attracted everyone's attention, even Bai Lang looked at him curiously.

Logically speaking, given Xie Qingyu's style, it would be more reasonable to choose the creative group "Everything is Natural". The song "Addiction" doesn't seem to be his style at all.

Xie Qingyu blinked.

He can't say that he actually likes the song "Addiction", right?

I just didn't expect that the teammates who came in were weirder than each other.

Of course, Yu Yuzi had plenty of strength and means, and in the end he perfectly controlled the stage.

Amidst the laughter and chatter in the box, Ding Zai suddenly turned to look at Qian Song, who had been quiet in the corner. "Brother Songzi, are you feeling better?"

During the accidental fall on the Sangong stage, Ding Zai was standing at the closest position and witnessed it with his own eyes.

It was such a thrilling scene that I could never forget it.

On the night of the group formation, I successfully debuted, but Qian Song, who should have had more hope, was not able to get in. The complicated feeling I have is hard to describe.

Qian Song was obviously stunned.

Since the night he formed the group, he successfully terminated his contract with his original company by leveraging his popularity and public opinion, and was also active in the entertainment industry for a while.

But gradually she found that this circle was not suitable for her, so she switched to being a behind-the-scenes producer, teaching children to dance in her spare time and spending more time returning to ordinary life.

Strangely enough, after unloading those heavy burdens, I felt a lot more relaxed.

It’s just that sometimes, like now, when I face the friends I used to spend every day with, I find that I don’t have many common topics with them anymore.

However, life is full of gains and losses, and it is not easy to live a happy life.

"It's all fine now." Qian Song shook his head with a faint smile on his lips.

Whether it was physical injuries or heartache, although regrets were inevitable, he had long learned to look forward.

Xie Qingyu held his chin with his hand, listening to his friends chatting with a smile on his face.

Some people shared their recent situation, some imagined the future, and some made jokes. It seemed that everyone was living a good life.

"Qingyu." Bai Lang suddenly called him softly.

Xie Qingyu turned around in confusion, only to see the other party pursed his lips and said, "Did you drink it?"

As the most sensitive person in the team, Bai Lang can always detect anything unusual at the first moment.

However, considering the embarrassing drunken incidents in the past, this vigilance is not difficult to understand.

Xie Qingyu tilted his head and used his thumb and index finger to measure a tiny distance: "Just a little bit~"

Then he added with a smile: "Don't worry, it's okay~"

In the past, those were just minor accidents, but now, as long as it is not a high-proof liquor, don’t think about knocking him down easily.

Bai Lang nodded, but he still paid more attention to Xie Qingyu's condition.

The crystal glass reflected a charming halo under the light, and Xie Qingyu raised the glass to admire the chandelier.

Suddenly, through the shaking wine, his eyes met Wei Ran's eyes opposite him.

Wei Ran's eyes were brighter than he remembered, and his slightly tanned skin made him look energetic.

Seeing Xie Qingyu looking at him, he raised his glass without any hesitation and drank it all in one gulp.

Xie Qingyu smiled back and quickly returned his gaze to the lively dining table.

Wei Ran put down his wine glass and watched Xie Qingyu look away. He silently refilled his glass and turned around to clink glasses with Wei Liangchen and the others.

To be honest, he was quite glad that he participated in that program and met these friends.

I used to live in a small space that I had built for myself, and I thought that my life would be like that. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't break free or escape.

But later I realized that it was actually because of my weakness and compromise that I blamed everything on fate.

Only when I really started to resist did I realize that everything was not that difficult.

Now my mother is actively cooperating with the treatment and her life is back on track.

It is hard to say that this courage to break out of the cocoon and be reborn is not due to the subtle influence of these little friends.

Especially Xie Qingyu, he's like...

A warm spring breeze makes people unconsciously want to get closer, and find a moment of inner peace in his unhurried conversation and calm aura.

The intermittent chat lasted until almost one o'clock in the morning. Considering that Xie Qingyu and his friends had to catch a flight in a few hours, everyone ended this long-awaited gathering with reluctance.

"Then I wish everyone—" Xie Qingyu suddenly stood up and slammed the table, shaking his wine glass, "a bright future and a promising future!"

His slightly tipsy look made everyone laugh.

"We have a bright future!" Everyone stood up and clinked their glasses.

After leaving the restaurant and getting into the nanny car, as the car engine started and prepared to return to the hotel, Xie Qingyu's first reaction was: "The paparazzi tonight are quite professional!"

The concert had just ended, so it was definitely impossible that there were no paparazzi following them, but even at this point in time, their dining address had not been exposed. I have to give them a thumbs up.

"My benefactor, are you drunk or not?" Wei Liangchen asked casually while yawning and putting his coat on.

Xie Qingyu raised his index finger and shook it: "Then he must not be drunk~" His tone was full of pride, as if he could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk.

Gu Yan only took a glance and concluded: "Half drunk."

You Jinzhao smacked his lips: "Qingyu, your alcohol tolerance is really good. Tsk tsk, you still need to practice~"

Leo blinked his eyes: "Brother, are you drunk again?"

Although he was also very sleepy, he would still do his best to obey if his brother needed him to be carried later.

Ding Zai laughed teasingly and said, "Boss Tang, what do you think? You haven't treated me to enough food, have you?"

This reminded Wei Liangchen: "That's right! Mr. Yan, you still owe me five meals!"

Xie Qingyu has been owed money for her coming-of-age gift until now. This is simply outrageous. "If you delay any further, I will charge interest!"

Bai Lang was helpless: "...direct transfer?"

"What kind of meal?" Xie Qingyu asked confusedly.

Gu Qi added at the right moment: "And the beating I gave you last time when I didn't keep an eye on you~" He remembered it clearly.

Bai Lang tried to explain: "You all don't have time..."

"Of course, the organizers of this kind of thing have to take the initiative," Ding continued to fan the flames. "Boss Jian is clearly trying to shirk his responsibility."

Bai Lang: "That's not the case."

After Bai Lang promised to make up for all the owed dinners during the tour, the carriage gradually became quiet.

"Actually, I'm really not drunk~" Xie Qingyu suddenly broke the silence.

"I know, I know, I'm not drunk!"

Everyone coaxed in unison, their tone as if they were comforting a sullen child.

"I was just pretending~" He emphasized it again, with a slight rise in the ending tone.

"Hmmmm."

"You're just giving me a hard time!"

Xie Qingyu grumbled dissatisfiedly, "I knew you wouldn't believe it..."

"Trust, trust, trust!"

Xie Qingyu snorted angrily and turned his head to lean against the car window.

The cool night breeze came in through the window, gently lifting the loose hair on his forehead.

The lights outside the window were reflected in his dark eyes, so clear that he seemed not to be drunk at all, but brighter and more moving than ever.
