Chapter 276 End of the Main Text

Ever since Xie Qingyu reported that he had a good rest that night, the other members' pillows have never been moved out of his room.

Every night after washing up, several young men would consciously go to Xie Qingyu's room, as if it was the most natural thing.

Shi Li once witnessed this scene. Seeing a group of people coming out of Xie Qingyu's room, the corners of his mouth twitched, and in the end he could only sigh:

"You two are really too close to each other."

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the additional performance in Yun City - this would be their last tour in the true sense.

Coincidentally, the venue was exactly where their debut night was held. It seemed as if there was a divine will that everything started and ended there.

Ever since getting in the car, Xie Qingyu's hands have been shaking uncontrollably and his right eyelid has been twitching non-stop.

He tried to divert his attention, but the traffic outside the window made his eyes double and his ears buzz.

"It's fine."

A warm hand suddenly grasped his trembling shoulder. Xie Qingyu turned his head and met Gu Qi's calm gaze.

The other party must have deliberately sat next to him when he got on the bus, but he didn't notice. "Everyone is here."

Gu Yan squeezed his shoulders, trying to make him relax.

"That's right, benefactor!"

Wei Liangchen heard the noise and poked his head out from the side. "Believe it or not, the one who came first must be——"

He stretched out his fingertips and flipped them, revealing two exquisitely wrapped chocolates like magic. "Surprise~"

Xie Qingyu's eyes lit up with a smile. He took the chocolate and asked, "Where did you get it?"

"That's my chocolate!" Leo suddenly exclaimed from the back row.

The young man touched his empty pockets angrily. If the car wasn't moving, he would have rushed over to settle the score with Wei Liangchen on the spot.

"When did you take it away?"

Xie Qingyu was about to hand it back, but Leo held her hand and pushed her back.

The puppy buried his face in the back of his chair and said in a muffled voice: "It was originally prepared for me..."

He spent a lot of time researching to find this chocolate that is not only beautiful but also delicious and can make people feel better.

But he was intercepted by Wei Liangchen halfway, and he didn't even know when he was taken away! So angry!

Ding was helping him to calm down, fearing that the child might get angry and cause harm. There was still a concert to go, so he could wait until it was over to get angry.

You Jinzhao's spirit of justice took over and he helped Leo scold Wei Liangchen, "You bullied a minor, believe it or not, I will expose you to the marketing account!"

"What's your business if you use chicken feathers as a token of authority?!"

It would be strange if Wei Liangchen could easily feel guilty, so he started arguing with You Jinzhao.

The two of them were bickering back and forth, which actually made Leo laugh. The boy watched with great interest, his eyes wide open, and he almost grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds to eat.

As the noise continued, Bai Lang, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly reminded them, "Cross the bridge."

The venue is built by the river, and crossing this bridge means you have reached your destination.

Xie Qingyu suddenly looked out the window and saw that the venue was right in front of him.

Outside, there were group flags and various cheering flags flying, as well as... countless fans waving their arms and cheering enthusiastically.

None of those worries happened.

His teammates are still around, waiting to step onto the stage with him tonight.

Xie Qingyu suddenly felt light all over, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

It turns out that nothing will happen, it turns out... crossing this node can be so easy.

This also means that from this moment on, he will truly and completely belong to this world!

"It's time to go." Gu Qi's voice brought him back to reality, "We still have to do the makeup and arrange the movement lines."

The members had already gotten off the bus and were waiting for him.

Xie Qingyu's eyes lit up brightly, and he nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night of carnival.

"Lulu! Look, Qingyu is getting off the car!"

Su Mei excitedly patted Lin Lulu's arm, not with much force but enough to bring her back to her senses.

Time will make people forget many traces. Now she has avoided the limelight and can finally stand in the crowd and look at the boy openly.

In fact, she had received an invitation to attend Xie Qingyu's coming-of-age ceremony.

But at that time, she had to keep it tightly covered, for fear that she would be photographed by those curious people among the fans, and start a "sister-in-law showed up at the coming-of-age ceremony" incident and continue to make a fuss about it.

After all, even after the storm subsided, there were still countless pairs of eyes watching eagerly, ready to stab Xie Qingyu at any time.

Lin Lulu nodded slightly. The bright and sunny boy in the camera made her smile unconsciously.

The ordinary boy under the moonlight back then has now become a shining star.

He stood in the love intertwined by the crowd and the scorching sun, becoming more and more upright and dazzling!

She felt this heartfelt joy and happiness more deeply than anyone else.

"Sister Lulu, are Qingyu Baoer and the others coming soon?"

Huang Guoguo yelled the last sentence "Mom loves you" to Xie Qingyu's back, then turned around and asked.

This unlucky kid had even bought fake tickets from scalpers before, and he didn't get to watch any of the domestic shows. Instead, Lin Lulu, who had watched two shows, became the object of her envy.

Lin Lulu smiled teasingly and waved amid the amazing cheers from her colleagues.

Huang Guoguo thought there were some important instructions and hurried closer.

Unexpectedly, the other person whispered in her ear, "You're the daughter of the Guoduoduo brand. Why don't you just ask the staff to open a VIP channel? I can get in early, too?"

It was only later that she found out about this when she was video chatting with Huang Guoguo and handing over the super topic work and saw that the wall behind her was full of Xie Qingyu's out-of-print peripherals and various TO signatures.

As a global partner brand of Xie Qingyu, this young lady was cheated by scalpers several times because of her slow hand speed and bad luck.

Although the money was recovered, the anger in my heart could not be relieved at all.

She had spent a lot of money and hired someone to help her rob the items in Yun City. Although they were guaranteed to be authentic, she felt a little uneasy after being stopped outside so many times.

That’s why I kept confirming the process with Lin Lulu, but who knew I’d be teased?!

Huang Guoguo hurriedly covered Lin Lulu's mouth, looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and then raised her index finger: "Shh——"

The company belongs to her parents, not her, so where does her privilege come from? At most, she can just pester her dad to get a to-sign visa for convenience.

She had never thought about having a private relationship with her idol, and she didn't want to give people that impression.

Sister, please don’t set a trap for me!

——

"Wow, this is such a grand occasion. I haven't held many events this big in the past~"

The door of the dressing room was pushed open, and Li Zhiqiu walked in with her hands behind her back, looking like a big sister inspecting something.

Xie Qingyu and the members, who had just finished their makeup, quickly stood up to greet them.

"I'm far inferior to you!"

Xie Qingyu responded modestly as a representative, and then everyone came forward one by one and gave Li Zhiqiu a polite hug.

"Are you feeling better?" Gu Qi asked with concern.

Li Zhiqiu's health has been up and down in the past two years. He even missed Xie Qingyu's coming-of-age ceremony. Unexpectedly, he was the first one to arrive today.

Li Zhiqiu waved his hand and said casually, "Don't worry, you still have a few years to live."

She always speaks directly. If she can die, she will die. If she can't die, she can still live a few more years. Anyway, she is already that old. She should just live one day at a time. There is no point in thinking too much.

As he was speaking, another head popped out of the door.

Su Jin walked in with a smile, carrying two exquisite gift boxes:

"Oh, it seems I came at a bad time. Are you all chatting?"

"Teacher Su!" Everyone greeted in unison.

Su Jin held up the box in her hand: "Come and try the cookies I baked myself."

He handed the box to Gu Qiong directly, and couldn't help laughing at Xie Qingyu's hesitant expression: "Don't worry, your cooking skills have improved. I'll be the first to try it later!"

Xie Qingyu blinked innocently: "I didn't say anything~"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"What are you talking about so happily?"

MCray and Lu Chuan heard laughter from inside before they even entered the room, so they walked in quickly to join in the conversation.

As a result, when the people in the room saw MCray's large sunglasses, which he never took off even indoors, they immediately started to tease him:

"MC teacher, you still have to act cool in front of acquaintances?"

MCray felt bitter when talking about this.

Glancing at the recording camera on the platform in the room, he swallowed his bitterness silently.

Why didn’t you feel that time was so difficult when you were leading Xie Qingyu and the others?

The thought of having to spend another half month with those "pigs" in the base made his scalp tingle.

I will never make money from Grape TV again. It’s really torture. I can’t even sleep well!

"Let's work together next time?"

Lu Chuan took advantage of the chaos to get close to Xie Qingyu and suggested in a low voice.

The two had a successful collaboration a year ago, but he enjoyed the creative sparks that collided with Xie Qingyu more.

Just as Xie Qingyu was about to respond, the door that Lu Chuan had closed was suddenly slammed open.

Wei Qianze held onto the door frame and pointed at Wei Liangchen and shouted angrily: "Who do you say is the suspect?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he chased after him. Seeing this, Wei Liangchen immediately screamed and ran around the room.

Wei Qianze had been holding this anger for too long.

Before, Xie Qingyu and his group were on tour abroad, and he was unable to get away, so Wei Liangchen, the idiot, escaped.

After the concert today, I have to take this kid to have his brain checked out!

"Alas~ I can't stop it~"

Ange and the other three who arrived late looked at the chaotic scene and spread their hands helplessly.

From a certain perspective, Wei Liangchen is also a god, as he can make Wei Qianze so angry!

Soon, friends arrived one after another, filling the dressing room.

However, after a brief greeting, they headed to the special seats reserved outside.

Tonight is of great significance to Xie Qingyu, no, to the entire MYST7 group. Everyone is here not so much to watch a performance as to witness an important moment.

The show will start soon.

This performance was more about letting go of themselves, so all seven of them sang with all their might and danced to their heart's content on the stage.

The last song performed was not the theme song of "Road to Star Dreams", "Dream Stage".

It’s the title song of the new album “Shining Sign” - “Shining Sign”.

Because today's graduation concert is not an end for them, but... a beginning.

Just like its lyrics say:

In the vast universe

We're like stars on a journey long

The legend of the divine group will never end here!

Xie Qingyu stood in a row with the other members, and in their glances, they saw unwavering determination.

"Today, MYST7 will end its short journey..."

“No, wuwuwu!!” The audience burst into tears.

Gu Qi took over Xie Qingyu's words, looked directly into the camera and solemnly announced: "In the future, MYST°7 will continue to move forward!"

The fans in the audience were in tears and didn't react for a while.

But the next second, when the seven young men hugged each other's waists, tears in their eyes, and shouted in unison: "MYST°7! Please give me your guidance in the future!!", everyone understood -

This is not a farewell, but a vow to start again with a new attitude!

The bright star road has just begun to extend.

Amid the screams and cheers of the audience, Xie Qingyu raised his hand to catch the colorful lights falling from the sky.

This is the result of their long-term game with Grape TV. It is not a disbandment, but a recapture of more voice.

This platform is like a double-edged sword. It is hard to say whether it is good or bad, but it definitely puts profit first.

From the increasingly frequent and unreasonable schedules in the later period, it can be seen that it is gradually overdrawing the vitality of the group.

If MYST is to go further and not be tripped up along the way, it must firmly grasp the initiative in its own hands.

For this, they paid a generous "breakup fee".

For this reason, MYST7 became MYST°7.

To this end, they established the exclusive "Duqi Media" - an independent label that only serves this group.

Each member's original company still serves as a partner, but this time, they can finally sit at the negotiating table as equals.

What will happen in the future?

Will the members’ minds change?

Xie Qingyu had no way of knowing.

He only knew that at this moment, there was no need to worry about whether it was worth it or not, because he already had the answer in his heart.

Let him wait and see how brightly the star MYST°7 will shine in the future!

【Postscript: Starlight and Dust】

The process of writing this story was like wrapping a bitter chocolate in a glass candy wrapper.

When I first conceived the idea, I couldn't help but embed sharp fragments of the real entertainment industry into the plot - the cruelty of capital games, the calculations of interpersonal relationships, and the helplessness of dreams being priced out.

But every time I open a document, look at the sweat shed by Yu Yuzi during her hard practice, and see the corners of the members' clothes flying up when they are playing, my hands on the keyboard will turn by themselves.

Later I finally understood that this is not a utopia to escape reality, but a "painkiller" for all those who are walking on the thorny road.

Those conflicts that are deliberately softened, the misunderstandings that are gently let go, and the falls that are gently caught are all the "ifs" I want to give to the real world.

If hard work could really be seen, if sincerity could be exchanged for sincerity, if the youthful spirit could not be polished into sophistication...

I especially want to say to you who are reading this:

The kindness and perfection in the story are not a denial of reality, but an expectation we all share.

Perhaps the light of the fictional world can also illuminate a tired moment in the three-dimensional world.

The IF line I will write about next is another possibility of parallel time and space.

But no matter which world, Xie Qingyu and MYST°7 will continue to move forward.

Just like us in reality, we will eventually find the most shining position on our own stage.

Thank you for being willing to accompany them here.

The mountains are high and the rivers are long, we will meet again in our new story!
