He Xizhou usually sleeps very soundly, but today he woke up very quickly. He struggled to open his eyes when he noticed movement beside him.
Ye Ying immediately put down her hand. He Xizhou was stunned for a moment when he saw him wake up, then he immediately reached out to test the temperature of his forehead: "It's okay, the fever has started again. How long have you been awake? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"Just woke up." Ye Ying replied in a low voice, "I don't feel uncomfortable anymore."
He Xizhou hummed, then realized that he was still hugging the other person's waist, and immediately withdrew his hand. He wanted to explain but felt that it was a bit deliberate, so he simply sat up and got out of bed: "Your lips are too dry, I'll go get you a glass of water."
It was not too early, and when He Xizhou made a noise, the others in the dormitory woke up. Xu Qiongzhi rubbed her eyes and got out of bed. Seeing Ye Ying wake up, her eyes lit up: "Yingying, how are you? Are you still having a fever?"
Ye Ying got down from the upper bunk, smiled at her roommates, and said apologetically, "I've already checked out. I'm sorry for making you worry yesterday."
Li Jingfei checked the temperature of his forehead and said, "You've been eating since last night. Are you hungry?"
"You must be hungry! I see your face has become thinner." Qiu Shuang pinched his face distressedly, "Go wash up first, and then we can go eat."
Ye Ying washed up, and He Xizhou handed him a cup of warm water and watched him drink it. The six of them went to the restaurant to eat together. Xu Qiongzhi and Qiu Shuang helped him pick up a full plate of food as if Ye Ying had been hungry for several days, but were stopped by Yue Chen: "You can't eat too greasy food after a fever. It's hard to digest."
He served Ye Ying a bowl of millet porridge and a few vegetarian buns with side dishes: "Just bear with it and eat something light for now."
Ye Ying took it with a smile: "I don't feel wronged. In fact, I'm not that hungry right now."
Yue Chen carried the plate and walked to the dining table with him: "Everything was resolved yesterday. Zhao Li will not look for you again. Your father sued her and asked her to repay the embezzled child support."
The other people have been hesitant about whether to tell Ye Ying about this, fearing that it would make him uncomfortable, but Yue Chen believes that Ye Ying has the right to know.
Besides, the other party is not such a fragile person.
Sure enough, Ye Ying nodded, and didn't seem to be surprised by the follow-up of this incident: "What's the relationship between her and me?"
"You have done your best for her, there is no need to feel any burden or guilt." Yue Chen said calmly, "Some people just take the title of 'parents'. Without this title, they are worse than strangers. Ye Ying, fight for what you should fight for, let go of the meaning and don't trap yourself."
A genuine smile finally appeared on Ye Ying's face, and she said seriously, "My brother Bai, thank you."
Yue Chen glanced at him, guessing that the other party's "white" was sincere, and his face relaxed a little: "Okay, let's eat first. It's been a long time since the finals, and I can't have any problems with my health during this period."
The six of them finished their meal and sat at the same table. Xu Qiongzhi saw that Ye Ying looked much better than yesterday, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, your fever subsided in time. If you had been sick for several days, you would have missed the finals. Fortunately, fortunately!"
"Thanks to Brother He for taking care of me yesterday." Ye Ying raised her eyes and glanced at the boy sitting opposite. He Xizhou raised his eyebrows: "Tsk, you are so polite to me."
"Indeed, luckily He Xizhou was in the dormitory yesterday and found out that you were sick in time." Xu Qiongzhi took a bite of the bun and suddenly remembered something while chewing, "By the way, Yingying, why did you sleep in He Xizhou's bed last night? We were shocked to see you two sleeping together when we came back in the evening."
Ye Ying's mouthful of porridge got stuck in her throat and she almost started to cough. He Xizhou narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Juanmao, his smile containing murderous intent: "Didn't you say you were hungry? Eat more."
As he spoke, he picked up another bun for him and looked like he wanted to stuff it directly into his mouth.
Ye Ying swallowed the porridge in her throat, coughed and said, "I was confused due to fever yesterday, went to the bathroom halfway, and when I came back I got the wrong bed."
"Oh oh." Xiao Juanmao expressed his understanding, but then laughed again, turned to Qiu Shuang's side and whispered, "Do you think He Xizhou is stupid? Wouldn't he sleep in Yingying's bed? He insisted on squeezing into such a small single bed. Is he missing a bone in his brain, hahaha."
He Xizhou: “…”
If murder was not a crime, he would kill the little curly hair without hesitation!
After finishing their meal, they went to the practice room and met a few students on the way. They all heard about what happened at the gate of the base yesterday, but one person just smiled and greeted Ye Ying, saying "come on".
Luo Zihui looked at Ye Ying's back, sighed and said to Qi Rui: "Do you think I am a bad-mouthed person? I just said yesterday that Ye Ying's eighteenth year will be smooth sailing, and then that terrible thing happened... It's really fucked up."
"I can only blame Ye Ying's crazy mother." Qi Rui also felt a little regretful, "I didn't know before that I told Ye Ying that she wanted to be my bag brother. Alas, I don't know what she was thinking at that time."
"Fortunately, it's over." Luo Zihui said, "After the hardship comes a smooth road. I overcame the difficulty on the first day of my 18th year. Brother Xiaoye will definitely have a smooth future and everything will go well!"
Qi Rui hooked his neck, and the two of them walked leisurely to the practice room: "Well, I have a feeling that you won't be such a pessimist this time."
…
One day later, just after dinner, the fifteen students suddenly received a notice that training was suspended in the evening and all students were to gather in the cinema.
Everyone got excited:
"Wow, you don't want to watch a movie?"
"What kind of movie should we watch? An inspirational movie? To cheer us up before the finals?"
"What else do you want to watch? Porn?"
"Get lost, I didn't say that!"
When they were at home, they were like students before the final exams. Although they were very nervous, they couldn't help but want to divert their attention and relax. They went to the theater in groups of three or four, and some even sneaked back to the dormitory to get the snacks they had hidden, ready to have a good night.
"Teacher Pan, the other teachers too, it doesn't look like a mission." The students sat in their seats and turned their heads to talk to each other, "Are they really going to let us watch a movie?"
As he was speaking, the screen in front of him suddenly lit up, and a middle-aged couple appeared in the center of the screen.
All the students were confused when they suddenly heard Luo Zihui shout in shock: "Dad? Mom!?"
Everyone's face turned into surprise. These were actually Luo Zihui's parents?
At this time, Luo Zihui's mother faced the camera and said, "Zihui, the finals are coming soon. To be honest, I wish you could get to this point today. You have been naughty since you were a child. You can't last long in anything you do. You have learned painting, taekwondo, and piano, but you gave up every time before persisting for a month. It was a waste of money. I feel sad when I think about it now."
The students laughed and Luo Zihui covered his face in shame: "My mother, please don't bring up these things again!"
Luo Zihui's mother continued, "Later, you said you wanted to learn singing and dancing. I thought you were just a flash in the pan again, but this time, you persisted for eleven years."
The family's expression gradually became serious, and Luo Zihui also sat up straight.
"I know your training must be very hard outside, but every time you called home, you always smiled and said you were not tired at all. One Chinese New Year, you said that the company had additional training and you couldn't go home, and you said you would take the opportunity to work hard, maybe one day you would suddenly become famous." Luo Zihui's mother said, "But on New Year's Eve, you called me and cried and said that you wanted to go home, you felt tired, and that there were too many people who were better than you, and it seemed that no matter how hard you tried, you could not catch up with them."
Many students couldn't help but glance at Luo Zihui, as if they all wanted to be energetic and vigorous all day long, and they also had such depressed and desperate moments.
Luo Zihui pursed his lips and looked at the person on the screen.
"But after you cried, you called me the next day and you were smiling again, as if nothing had happened. I felt sad, but also proud, because I found that my son was more resilient than I thought."
"Son, there are always people better than you. We may not be as good as others, but there must be shining points that cannot be replaced by others." Luo Zihui's father said, "Your mother and I watched your performance on this show, and many people watched it. They all like you very much. You are right to insist on it. We are proud of you and will always be your support and support."
"Good luck in the finals!"
Luo Zihui covered his eyes and rubbed them: "Why are you so annoying, it's really..."
Qi Rui hugged his shoulders and rubbed them comfortingly. The other students were also moved and understood the intention of the program team - they had been in contact with their families for nearly three months since they entered the camp. The finals were coming up soon, and the program team had their families record a cheering video without telling them, which was a huge surprise for all the students.
Everyone stared at the screen excitedly, guessing who would be the next parent.
The scene changed, and a curly-haired man and a slightly plump and kind woman appeared. Jia immediately turned around with a smile: "Xu Qiongzhi! These are definitely your parents!"
Xu Qiongzhi was so excited to see her parents that her curly hair trembled with joy: "Hey, everyone says I look like them!"
Xu Qiongzhi's mother spoke up, her voice loud and clear, with a hint of an accent: "Zhizhi, you must have gained weight recently, right? I watched your show, and you always eat the most. The key is that you can eat as much as you want to grow taller. Hey, you're the shortest among so many people!"
“Hahahahahaha!!”
The trainees laughed without hesitation. Xu Qiongzhi was so angry that she said, "I have grown! I have grown two centimeters since I entered the camp!"
What’s wrong with these mothers? Why do they always expose other people’s shortcomings?
Xu Qiongzhi's father said: "It's better for him to be shorter. This way he will stand out. He will be the one who stands out among the tall people."
The students burst into laughter again, and Qiu Shuang almost burst into tears: "Your parents are so funny, have they ever performed crosstalk before?"
Xu Qiongzhi was mad: "What? They always take pleasure in insulting me!"
Xu Qiongzhi's mother said: "Ran, except that he eats a little more, is a little shorter, and talks a little more, my son is still very good. Last time he ranked in the top six, your father and I were shocked!"
Xu Qiongzhi's father nodded: "After all, I sent you to the show because I thought you were annoying. Who would have thought you could be so successful!"
Xu Qiongzhi's mother: "It's almost the finals, come on, Zhizhi, mom believes you can definitely make your debut!"
"You should be very busy after your debut, right? I heard that all the stars are very busy," Xu Qiongzhi's father said, "It's better to be busy, so that your mother and I can continue to live in our own world."
The students had already collapsed on their chairs with laughter. Xu Qiongzhi grabbed her curly hair and said, "Am I their biological child?"
After a moment of joy, the picture changed and screams suddenly rang out in the theater.
"Woc congratulations to the Movie King!!"
"Oh my god, the actor is really 16 years old? He looks like he's in his 30s, too young!!"
"Brother He, is your mother next to the movie star? She's so charming! My god, your family is so beautiful!"
He Pingqiu and his wife Shi Fenglan sat side by side on the sofa in the living room. From their clothes and temperament, they could tell that they were upper-class elites. He Pingqiu was fine. Although he had been a movie star for 20 years, his temperament was unexpectedly calm, even giving people a sense of intimacy. Shi Fenglan might be due to her profession. Although she looked gentle, she gave people a sense of efficiency and competence, which shocked many young boys across the screen and made them hold their breath and hold their voices.
"It's been a while since we last met. Is everything going well in the camp?" He Pingqiu smiled at the camera. "I watched the show. I remember you were reluctant when I first asked you to go. Now, I think you have changed your mind, right?"
He Xizhou rubbed the tip of his nose and spoke.
"I'm not worried about your ability and character, but you have a strong personality and don't know how to restrain yourself. I think you'll suffer if you continue like this, so I asked you to go to the show to hone your skills and gain experience." He Pingqiu paused, "But it doesn't seem to have any effect. After all, you were on the hot search yesterday, saying that you smashed someone's paparazzi's camera."
The serious atmosphere was swept away, and the students started laughing again, shaking their shoulders. Ye Ying was slightly surprised, thinking that even He Xizhou's father knew about this.
He looked at He Xizhou a little worriedly, and the other party gritted his teeth: "Don't be fooled by him. When he was young, he smashed cameras no better than me!"
"I've actually come to terms with it recently. You young people have your own ideas, and it's not right for us to interfere too much." He Pingqiu said, "And I've also seen your transformation. Your temper has softened a little, and you've made friends. You can say that this trip has been fruitful. Every experience is a precious journey. It may not be noticeable at the moment, but it may affect your future life. The finals are coming up soon. I hope you can make it through to the end and don't waste this time."
"You have always been strong-willed and have always tried your best in the things you like. Mom admires you for that," said Shi Fenglan. "The result is important, but it is more important to enjoy the process. Go ahead and prepare for the finals. We will wait for you at home after the game."
"Your mother misses you and said she would make you something delicious." He Pingqiu said, "By the way, bring Ye Ying back with you."
Shi Fenglan was reminded and added: "Don't forget to ask him what he likes to eat. I will prepare it in advance."
Ye Ying was caught off guard when her name was called: “……!?!?”
