Day 44
The shabby room in the base was not very soundproof. Da Pei and the election officer, who had not walked far, were already in a stalemate in the corridor. After hearing Fu Xunyan's only two words in the silence, Da Pei and the election officer couldn't help but curl the corners of their lips.
There was a gleam in Da Pei's eyes, and he subconsciously looked up and sniffed.
The election officials are puzzled.
If Fu Xunyan's growing pains were losing his only relative at the age of 16, then Da Pei experienced the boiling pain of love and hate.
Before the age of 12, Da Pei's life was carefree like all other children. Apart from his wild temperament and handsome appearance, he was not noticeable.
But a huge change happened on his 12th birthday.
The father who concealed the fact that he was gambling with loans finally got caught and fled the house overnight, leaving his mother and young Dal-pei to face the wrath of the creditors.
Through a door, there were deafening knocks and long-lasting obscene curses outside, and the room was dark - the group of people had turned off the main power valve.
The birthday candles on the table were still flickering. The sweet food that was supposed to be enjoyed by three people, at that moment, in that darkness, became something that Da Pei felt he could never face in his life.
The mother covered her ears, and the two of them huddled together and hugged each other, trembling all night long.
When I secretly opened the door that morning, my mother was silent as she looked at the mess. The door had been splashed with red paint and even had several cuts on it.
In the following days, people came to cause trouble every day and night, and the neighbors' initial sympathy gradually turned into complaints.
Finally, on the hottest day of that summer, the mother made up her mind to sue Dal-pei's father in court for divorce. After two years of entanglement, she finally obtained the judgment.
The mother took on half of the debt and took Da Pei away from home to work for her sister abroad to pay off the debt.
Life was hard, but she was a strong woman and fate was kind to them. She paid off her domestic debts in three years.
Da Pei also had a difficult time during this period. Since he was 14 years old, he has been hanging around in the market and doing all kinds of jobs in his spare time. He is willing to give anything as long as he can reduce the burden on his mother a little.
During this time he also met a lot of people, including a group of friendly young people who introduced him to the hip-hop circle.
In that underground circle, he also encountered many unfriendly and even hostile people, but these did not defeat him, but tempered him instead.
He cried, felt sad, and resented, but he also knew that negative emotions would only suppress his vitality, so he could only keep running forward with his head down.
If Fu Xunyan's youth is a silent and enduring loneliness, then Da Pei's is a vigorous loneliness. Except when facing his family, he is irritable, eccentric and difficult to understand.
At the age of 17, Dal-bae stood in front of his mother and said he wanted to return to his country.
Zhou Fangfei, his mother who had worked hard all her life, did not ask for reasons but gave full support.
"I want to go back home too. Let's go together."
After returning to China, Zhou Fangfei reopened a small shop, while Da Pei joined his current company as a trainee while studying at art college.
Da Pei admires his mother very much. His mother is a very, very, very strong and great woman. He feels that if Fu Xunyan could meet Ms. Zhou, he might not always be so lonely.
After all, Ms. Zhou is a chatty little sun.
However, he was not good at speaking and always said one thing and meant another in front of Ms. Zhou. He felt that Ms. Zhou might also need someone to sincerely tell her that he needed her and thanked her.
At the moment when he is still unable to overcome himself, Xun Yan will be a mouthpiece.
I think I'm a little selfish—that's what Dal-bae thought. But it doesn't matter. If it's good for everyone, everyone can understand a little selfishness, right?
The conversation inside continues.
"Xun Yan, when you have time, come back and have dinner with Xiao Pei. Auntie is really good at cooking.
Not to mention a street, there's no restaurant in City B that can cook as deliciously as Auntie's. Auntie's waiting for you! It's best to come after your debut and promote Auntie!"
[Wow, my eyes are sore and I need to pee]
Auntie Zhou is such a nice person. I also want to have such a cheerful mother.
[Da Pei is a good person. Seeing Xun Yan is alone, he borrowed his mother.]
[Can Mother Zhou also accept Xunbao as her son? My life has been so hard.]
Fu Xunyan responded with a smile, thinking that maybe it was time to hang up the phone, but the other party still hadn't finished.
"Oh my, I forgot the most important thing! Xun Yan, I'm telling you this in secret, you can't tell Xiao Pei."
Fu Xunyan glanced at the camera, still hesitating whether to remind Da Pei that he could still see it later, but the other party had already spilled the beans.
"Ahem, it's Xiao Pei's cousin. She likes you very much. She will also take the college entrance examination soon. Can you give her a word of encouragement and motivate the child? I'm asking you for this."
"No problem, Auntie." Fu Xunyan thought for a moment.
"Dal-bae's little cousin, keep working hard and make the most of your years of study and hard work to get the results you want."
This was a rare occasion when Fu Xunyan used the interjection "oh" in his speech, and it inexplicably sounded like he was acting coquettishly.
[oh? ]
[Oh? I'm going to make a scene, I'm going to make a scene! This is Xunbao's first time acting like a spoiled child!]
[Wow, I'm also a senior in high school. Treasure Hunt must be blessing me, right?]
[By the way, Fu Xunyan is also going to take the college entrance exam, right? It’s pretty amazing to think about it. My idol and I are taking the college entrance exam together?]
As he walked out of the room, Fu Xunyan met Dapei's resentful eyes.
"You took away my biggest fan."
"No."
"You have."
"No."
Da Pei pretended to cry, leaned his head against Fu Xunyan's shoulder, and began to whimper like a dog, unable to control his sadness.
"Lingling obviously likes me the most and promised to support me forever. Women are all pigs who fall in love with every one they meet."
[Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Dal-bae is really sad.]
[It seems that their family has a good relationship]
[Hey, it’s our nature to love looking at handsome guys, Dal-bae, you need to get used to it sooner rather than later.]
[What's so sad about this? You and Fu Xunyan can just get married, and then you can love your brother and sister-in-law at the same time.]
[Great idea! Reward!]
After laughing and joking in the corridor for a while, seeing that Fu Xunyan no longer had that lonely aura, Da Pei felt relieved, put his arm around his shoulders and sent him back to the practice room.
On the way, they met Min Hai and others, who all condemned Da Pei for his unscrupulous means.
"To be honest, my mother also wants to have a handsome son."
"I signed up for my mom. She loves looking for inkstones."
The most outrageous one was Chen Chi, who relied on his young age and stood in front of Fu Xunyan with a red face.
"I-I've always wanted a brother."
Bai Wenji interrupted ruthlessly and stood in front of Chen Chi: "What do you think of me?"
"Iceberg brother Damai!"
[Aaaaaa, I suggest these people debut right where they are!]
[Touching brotherhood, woooooo, when will I ever have a brother like this? I'm so envious]
[You can really tell a person's character. The people who have been with Fu Xunyan since his live broadcast are still with him now. They are all such good kids.]
[It’s all my fault! Mom is so relieved!]
Unfortunately, this relief did not last long. Soon, these women threw their "sons" and "good boys" aside and stared at the screen like lustful ghosts. The background of the app showed that the number of screenshots had reached hundreds of millions.
"Ahhhhh what are you doing to my brother Fu!!" Jiang Han covered his cheeks and imitated a girl's scream.
In front of the huge floor-length mirror, Min Hai hugged Fu Xunyan from behind, but during the movement, the ring accidentally caught on the thin spring shirt, completely lifting the hem of the clothes.
The eight white abdominal muscles are very clear.
Coupled with the young man's slightly surprised face, it looked like a decent woman who was at a loss after being teased.
Bai Zhen walked over silently, recalled what he had just seen, then looked down at himself with a distorted expression.
"Why? How on earth did you do that? I'm a professional dancer and only have six. I feel like my daily training volume is being challenged."
Jiang Han was equally dejected: "I've tried really hard, three days and three days, and I finally started to have a rough shape, treasure hunting, you hit me."
Fu Xunyan was speechless, his eyes smiling: "It's okay, there are no movements on the stage that require lifting clothes. Asking everyone to work out is just to look better overall."
Zhou Qi lay at the back of the practice room, gasping for air. Each of these chucklers was more chuckle-worthy than the last, yet each seemed more relaxed than the last in the practice room. It made it seem as if he, the one being forced to work hard, wasn't working at all...
Ahhh, I miss the loser group from before. It was so nice when everyone practiced for half a day and rested for half a day.
In fact, Min Hai had been quite relaxed with Zhou Qi considering his foundation. He gave Zhou Qi three days to memorize the dance that the others had to memorize in one day. The other four had already started memorizing the movements, but Zhou Qi hadn't even learned half of the dance.
He seemed to want to imitate Bo Mi's emo style to gain the audience's sympathy, but unfortunately no one in the group cared about him for the time being, so they couldn't relieve his "depression" or have any conflicts with him.
Zhou Qi was so angry that he could only wait carefully for the opportunity to create a conflict.
Seeing Zhou Qi looking heavy-hearted and not training, Min Hai couldn't help but frown. As the captain, he needed to give Zhou Qi a lesson, but... because of the previous incident, he was very resistant to the idea of getting close to Zhou Qi.
"Let me do it." Fu Xunyan removed the weighted rings on his arms and legs.
"But you still need to prepare for the exam. If you spend more time on him..." Min Hai frowned.
Fu Xunyan: "It's okay, I can arrange it."
Min Hai was still a little hesitant, but Fu Xunyan was always trustworthy, so he finally agreed.
At ten o'clock in the evening, after Zhou Qi learned two moves from the amateur teacher, he planned to lie down in the back. The amateur teacher looked helpless but did not dare to blame him.
Although these trainees are not very talented, they have good looks. In this age where looks matter, they can accumulate hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of fans as long as they have a little exposure. For guys like me who have not entered the circle, as long as they are indirectly criticized by the other party, the fans will come and tear me apart.
Just when he was extremely conflicted, a tall shadow fell beside him.
The teacher glanced sideways and saw Fu Xunyan in surprise.
"Xun Yan? Aren't you going to rest with them?"
When Zhou Qi heard the topic of rest, he felt even more aggrieved and turned his back to face them.
If the amateur teacher knew what Zhou Qi was thinking, he would definitely slap him in the face - he has been strictly following the schedule of 50 minutes of training and 10 minutes of rest since after dinner, what have you done?
Your total training time in these four hours is no more than one hour!
Fu Xunyan: "Well, I think Zhou Qi is having some difficulty. Come over and help. This song is difficult. We will definitely be too late at this rate."
Zhou Qi's body stiffened.
Fu Xunyan's eyes were like burning flames, causing a string of blisters on his back.
The amateur teacher quietly left the stage, leaving the young man standing there coldly, staring silently at the boy who was sitting on the ground and seemed to be autistic.
He suddenly smiled, and the cold and distant feeling disappeared, and the lazy threat became concrete, making Zhou Qi feel that every inch of the air around him was pressured.
"Let's start from the beginning and go through each step one by one, okay?"
