When they heard Xi Ming was going to perform a stunt, all the drivers who were still racing on the track stopped training to clear the space for him. Some drivers also raised their hands enthusiastically, vying to be his performance partner.
The stadium was suddenly filled with people.
The manager glanced at Zhuang Li and said, "Why don't you stand on that movable stand? You can see it more clearly there."
Zhuang Li smiled and said thank you, then climbed onto the stands.
Wan Annie and Chang Jinbo also climbed up, their faces full of excitement.
The other drivers also wanted to climb, but the manager hit them on the head one by one: "Why are you climbing? If you, a bunch of rough guys, go up and block others, who will Xi Ming have to watch?"
"Who does the boss want to see?" The drivers' curiosity was aroused.
At that moment, Xi Ming poked his head out, waved to the people in the stands, then stepped on the accelerator and performed a burnout. After the burnout, he quickly drove onto the track, performing various difficult maneuvers with ease: drifting, tailspinning, frog jumps, walking, and even dodging a collision between two cars...
He felt like he had eaten Xuanmai and couldn't stop.
The drivers were screaming in delight.
In the stands, Zhuang Li stood on the highest step, arms raised, cheering for Xi Ming. His smile was more dazzling than ever, his demeanor more enthusiastic and exuberant than ever. At that moment, his entire attention and focus were captured by Xi Ming's brilliant performance.
Chang Jinbo looked back at him again and again, feeling extremely sad.
Zhuang Li had never laughed like this in front of her. He looked so handsome when he laughed so freely.
Xi Ming ended this wonderful performance with an extreme side stop.
Zhuang Li clapped his hands until they turned red, and exclaimed in admiration, "He's so handsome!"
Wan Annie whistled and echoed: "Yeah, he's super handsome! On the track, he's a god!"
Zhuang Li raised his hands and clapped vigorously, shouting Xi Ming's name constantly, like an ardent fan.
Chang Jinbo also clapped, but he no longer had the excitement he had when he first arrived. Seeing Zhuang Li deeply attracted to Xi Ming, he didn't know why he felt particularly uncomfortable.
But before he could sort out his strange mood, Xi Ming came over and threw a bottle of mineral water onto the stands. Zhuang Li immediately reached out to catch it.
One of them stood in the audience, looking up, while the other lay on the stage, looking down, both with identical smiles of joy on their faces. They only had eyes for each other, no one else.
Xi Ming unscrewed the bottle cap and took a few sips of water, then asked expectantly, "Did you like the performance just now?"
"I like it! I was so engrossed in watching it that I forgot to record it." Zhuang Li shook his phone regretfully.
"It doesn't matter. I'll perform for you whenever you come." Xi Ming said seriously, "As long as you want to watch, I'm always available."
This sentence clearly showed his preference for Zhuang Li. Before this meeting was over, he was already looking forward to the next one.
Zhuang Li smiled brightly, his narrow eyes curved into two crescents, making him look silly and cute. Only in front of Xi Ming would he reveal his softest and simplest side.
Xi Ming was stunned for a second, then his ears burned red. No matter how carefree and unrestrained he acted, in front of Zhuang Li, he was still that clueless young man who would suddenly be at a loss.
Zhuang Li stared at his ears, his smile growing even brighter. Although he knew that every little world was destined to meet his loved one, when this day finally arrived, his joy never diminished in the slightest.
There is no such thing as "getting used to it and then things become dull" between them.
The two looked at each other across the platform, then smiled foolishly. There was no in-depth verbal communication, but the atmosphere was inexplicably sweet.
Cameraman Xiao Liu quietly captured this quiet yet beautiful scene.
Seeing Xi Ming doing nothing but a silly grin, the manager walked over and offered some advice: "Old Xi, why don't you take these little fans to see your trophy room?"
Wan Annie and Chang Jinbo immediately showed expectant expressions and clapped their hands in approval.
Xi Ming, however, only stared at the curly-haired boy and asked, "Do you want to see it?"
Zhuang Li nodded, her curly hair bouncing along with the smile: "I want to see it."
When he was in the love cabin, he was cold, arrogant and casual, but in front of Xi Ming, he was like a child, well-behaved and cute.
Chang Jinbo couldn't tell which one was the real Zhuang Li. But no matter what he looked like, he always exuded a natural charm. He was like a cat: when he was happy, he'd tease you, but when he was unhappy, he'd give you a good scratch and then scurry away, leaving you completely helpless.
So, is this how Han Kun fell?
When Chang Jinbo was stunned, Xi Ming stretched out his hands and said, "Come down if you want to see."
Zhuang Lixiang jumped over the railing without thinking and jumped into Xi Ming's arms from the three-meter-high stands.
Xi Ming's strong arms held him firmly, but he didn't let his feet touch the ground immediately. Instead, he held him and spun around.
Zhuang Li subconsciously hugged Xi Ming's neck tightly, and while turning around, he lowered his head to look into Xi Ming's eyes and laughed happily.
Xi Ming also laughed heartily, then put the person in his arms down and rubbed the little curly hair that he had longed for.
It feels really good.
Wan Annie: "..." Where's the insulin? Give me a shot!
Chang Jinbo: “…” Shit! Xi Ming’s methods of seducing people are so sophisticated, he must be a playboy! I have to remind Zhuang Li when I get back!
The two ran down the stands and hurriedly chased after him. Xi Ming had already forgotten about them.
---
Xi Ming reached the peak of his career as soon as he debuted and has never come down from there.
Therefore, his trophies filled the entire display room, shining golden when the sunlight shone on them.
Wan Annie and Chang Jinbo were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths. Although they had known for a long time that Xi Ming's record was very brilliant, they were still deeply shocked when they saw this room full of glory.
Xiao Liu took pictures of these trophies one by one, his breathing becoming a little rapid with excitement.
This is the life of the world's best racing driver!
Xi Ming silently observed Zhuang Li's reaction, and when he saw him let out a low cry of surprise, he raised the corners of his lips lightly.
He pointed at one of the trophies and was about to introduce it, but Zhuang Li spoke first, "This is the championship trophy you won in the 20XX Country Y Championship. At that time, you defeated the world's number one racing driver, Ole, and replaced him as the new world number one."
There were so many trophies that the entire room couldn't hold them all. Xi Ming naturally couldn't write descriptions for them and make them into cards to display on a display stand for others to see. That would seem too ostentatious.
He placed them in a haphazard manner, and it was difficult for him to find a particularly meaningful one.
But Zhuang Li was able to identify the origins of these trophies at the first moment.
Xi Ming was surprised, so he pointed to another trophy and asked, "What about this one?"
"This is the championship trophy from the 20XX F Country Championship. You won that year with the greatest ease. No one on the field could rival you."
Zhuang Li pointed to each trophy, eloquently explaining their origins. He knew Xi Ming's achievements like the back of his hand, remembering every detail of the matches.
Xi Ming looked at the little curly-haired boy intently, his chest slowly filled with a strange emotion. It turned out that being liked by someone felt so wonderful.
Wan Anni suddenly clapped her hands and shouted, "Zhuang Li, I understand! You said you went on variety shows so your idol could see you. Could that idol be Xi Ming? Otherwise, why would you know so much about every competition Xi Ming participated in? Chang Jinbo is also a fan of Xi Ming and often reposts Xi Ming's Weibo posts, but he doesn't even know these things!"
Chang Jinbo also thought of Zhuang Li’s confession and couldn’t help but clench his fists secretly.
Xi Ming looked deeply into Zhuang Li's eyes and asked, "Are you on the variety show just so I can see you?"
"Well, I don't know how to approach you. To me, you are an unreachable star." Zhuang Li curled his lips and smiled, his eyes filled with starlight as he looked at Xi Ming.
Xi Ming: "..." He was speechless for a moment, but his ears quickly turned red, and uncontrollable joy and satisfaction surged from the bottom of his heart.
"How can anyone not see you?" he said hoarsely, "You are the star."
In his vision, the little curly-haired boy was the brightest being.
Zhuang Li couldn't stop laughing.
Xi Ming reached out and gave him a hug, whispering, "Look, I'm right here with you. You can see me anytime you want." He lowered his voice and whispered, "I'll give you my phone number later. If you want to come to MAX, just call me and I'll pick you up."
"Yeah." Zhuang Li nodded slightly.
"When are you free?" Xi Ming couldn't wait for the next meeting.
"Look at the program schedule." Zhuang Li stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear.
Xi Ming's ears were practically on fire. This slightly warm and slightly itchy air flow penetrated directly from his eardrums into his heart.
"When will you finish recording the show?" he asked.
"There are still more than twenty days left."
"So long? Then I'll visit you on set." Xi Ming decided to visit you on set tomorrow.
The last time his agent asked him to participate in a dating variety show, he flatly refused and forgot about it. When he saw Zhuang Li today, he didn't associate him with that weird show or that weird guest.
In his opinion, Zhuang Li and the original owner were two completely different people.
So he had no idea that Zhuang Li was participating in a dating variety show and would be paired up with someone else on the show.
Zhuang Li knew that he didn't know, so he smiled slyly: "Okay, I'll wait for you to come visit me."
The two exchanged whispers before breaking up the hug. Their intimate gestures made Chang Jinbo furious. Are idols so great? Do idols get to take advantage of their fans? Ugh!
Xi Ming pointed to the trophies all over the room and asked Zhuang Li with a smile, "Which one do you like best?"
Zhuang Li walked around and picked out the only runner-up trophy: "I like this the best."
Xi Ming asked puzzledly, "Why?"
Wan Annie jokingly said, "Of course it's because this is Xi Shen's only runner-up trophy! The only one is the most precious."
Chang Jinbo also nodded. If you want to pick one, you must pick the most special one.
Zhuang Li shook his head and said, "No, it's precious because you could have won the championship in that race, but you gave it up. At that time, a car crashed and stopped on the side of the road, its fuel tank on fire and about to explode, and the driver was stuck in the driver's seat, unable to break free. Many drivers saw his plight, but sped past in pursuit of victory. Only you stopped and saved him."
Zhuang Li held up the trophy, his eyes full of admiration: "This is the hero's trophy, so I like it the most."
No matter where you are, the heart of your lover is always full of light, and this light firmly attracted Zhuang Li, who once lived in darkness.
Xi Ming: "..." His heart was beating faster than the car running on the track, and the softest corner of his heart was hit.
He never considered himself a hero, nor did he think saving others was a big deal; it was a responsibility that a person with a basic moral bottom line should bear. But at this moment, being stared at by Curly's ardent admiring eyes, he felt extremely proud.
He is willing to be Curly's hero.
Xi Ming tried hard to control his pounding heart and said in a hoarse voice, "If you like it, it's yours."
This "it" refers to both the trophy and something else.
