Chapter 108 What worries and complaints
But no matter how worried you are, the mission still needs to be completed.
But I don’t know if it was because the program team also saw the farce during the previous online voting for song selection, but during the third public practice, the program team set up several cameras to film Xia Linxing and his group.
Especially when Xia Linxing, Chen Sibai and Zhao Jian were in the same room and in the same picture, every time Xia Linxing turned his head, he would find a camera that had been placed in the corner at some unknown time, facing him darkly.
Xia Linxing: “…”
He could only be thankful: Fortunately, this time his "little trick" did not need to be completed in the practice room, otherwise, with so many cameras pointed at him, he would not know how to start.
Time passed quickly during the busy practice, and soon it was time for the third performance.
That is the day when Xia Linxing should complete the task——
"Um?"
After changing into his performance clothes and checking the overall effect of his clothes in front of the fitting mirror, Shen Sibai suddenly turned his head and looked at Xia Linxing, who had been secretly watching him, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with Xingxing?"
"It's my clothes... Is there something wrong with them?"
Xia Linxing, who was caught peeking, was frightened and shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, no..."
He just wanted to take a closer look at what the "victim" clothing looked like when it was "alive" and pick out where he could make his move.
After all, his task of "ruining clothes" is not as easy as simply cutting Shen Sibai's performance clothes with scissors.
He had to ensure that Shen Sibai's clothes were damaged, and that the clothes were damaged to the point where he could no longer wear them on stage and had to be replaced immediately. Therefore, the damage could not be just minor things like removing the buttons and chain accessories. After all, if it was done too covertly, and Shen Sibai only discovered it after he went on stage, then it would be really over.
But if you do it too obviously, that's not okay either.
If he directly tore a big hole in Shen Sibai's clothes, making it obvious that the clothes were maliciously damaged, then the program team would most likely classify it as a malicious incident and start an investigation.
By the time the results of the investigation come out, it will probably be the time for him to be kicked out of the program crew - at that point, Xia Linxing probably won't be able to stay in the program crew by doing cleaning work.
So, doing bad things is also a delicate job that requires thinking!
It's hard to be a bad guy!
So Xia Linxing used the mirror to constantly look at Shen Sibai's performance clothes, and in his mind, he whispered to System 999 about how to better destroy the clothes. He looked more seriously than Shen Sibai, who was also looking at the clothes to see if there was anything that needed to be changed.
He was just too serious and was caught by the owner of the clothes.
Shen Sibai didn't have any opinion on Xia Linxing's gaze.
Ever since Xia Linxing saved him in the haunted house last time, Shen Sibai has completely regarded Xia Linxing as a good kid with a hard mouth and a soft heart.
Even the incident when "Xia Linxing" tried to push him on the stairs when they first met and ended up falling down was beautified by him into Xia Linxing probably just wanting to pat him on the shoulder.
So Shen Sibai now completely regarded Xia Linxing as his own brother, and he had ten thousand patiences for Xia Linxing. Seeing Xia Linxing just shaking his head and not saying anything, Shen Sibai waved at him, "Then Xingxing, come and try on your clothes."
"Let me help you see if there's anything you need to change..."
Xia Linxing said "Oh" and agreed.
He thought that when Shen Sibai helped him look later, he could also take a close look at Shen Sibai's clothes, so he agreed readily, took the clothes obediently and went to the dressing room.
After he changed his clothes and walked out, the trainees outside suddenly exclaimed "Wow" -
This time, their group's performance costumes were all silver.
The silver performance costume shone with a cold luster under the light of the fitting room, like the embodiment of moonlight, or like it was covered with the Milky Way.
The tailored top has slightly upturned shoulders, outlining a neat silhouette; the collar is inlaid with fine silver sequins, which sparkle like broken diamonds under the light, reflecting light from different angles as Xia Linxing moves; the hem and cuffs are decorated with a circle of fine silver chain tassels. When she raises her hand and turns around, the tassels drag a dazzling trajectory like the trail of a meteor, drawing an elegant arc.
There is a wide metallic belt around the waist, which adds a unique touch of brightness to the silver outfit.
The ends of her previously soft and fluffy chestnut hair were slightly curled up, and a few strands of hair on her forehead were highlighted with a misty silver-gray color, which complemented the silver theme of her body.
——The image of the little prince Xia Linxing in the past is completely different.
It's really eye-catching!
“Oh my god…”
Several trainees immediately gathered around and began to circle around Xia Linxing, "This dress... suits you so well, Xia Linxing!"
At first they thought Xia Linxing would not be suitable for this style. After all, from the first stage, Xia Linxing's style was more inclined towards the image of a little prince or a boy next door.
——This is not because Xia Linxing personally likes this style, but because Xia Linxing's appearance determines that he is more suitable for this style.
So after seeing Xia Linxing's completely different image this time, everyone's eyes lit up, and some even started shouting exaggeratedly.
The noisy noise attracted the trainees passing by outside.
Cheng Xuezhou was in the crowd. He looked out and saw Xia Linxing who was surrounded in the middle and was smiling shyly with her lips pursed.
He stood in the crowd, staring expressionlessly at Xia Linxing's figure surrounded by everyone.
...Those were the clothes he was supposed to be wearing.
Cheng Xuezhou looked at Xia Linxing's glittering performance costume, which attracted everyone's attention just by standing there, and his nails unknowingly dug into his palms.
If it weren't for Xia Linxing, if it weren't for Xia Linxing's fans, the person wearing this shiny performance costume now should be him!
His eyes were fixed on Xia Linxing. Whenever he thought of the dark, featureless costume he had just tried on (purely Cheng Xuezhou's personal opinion), his nails dug into his palms unconsciously, as if pinching out some pain to suppress the churning fullness in his chest.
In the room, Shen Sibai and others were still praising Xia Linxing: “This dress really suits you, Xingxing!”
"I didn't expect you to suit this look so well!"
"Xia Linxing, you should have tried other styles sooner! This look is much more impactful than your previous ones! It looks so beautiful!"
"Yes, yes! I can imagine how many people will be amazed when you appear on stage!"
"I just feel that the waistline can be tightened a bit. It looks a little big now..." Shen Sibai gestured at Xia Linxing's waist with his hand. Although Xia Linxing felt a little itchy around her waist, she still obediently let Shen Sibai do what she wanted.
The other trainees watching also nodded, "It's true... I feel like it could be shortened by another two centimeters."
They also took the measurements and sighed, "It's not that the clothes are too big, it's that your waist is too thin, Xia Linxing..."
Look at this thin waist, they can pinch it with just two hands.
Xia Linxing also nodded, "Then I'll leave the clothes here later..." I'll ask the costume designer to help him alter them, and then I can come and pick them up tomorrow.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Linxing suddenly reacted.
...Huh? Speaking of which, isn't this a perfect opportunity?
He couldn't help but look at Shen Sibai and asked tentatively: "Shen Sibai, do you want to alter your clothes too?"
He quickly glanced up and down at Shen Sibai, and made an excuse temporarily: "I think the sleeves of your clothes are a little too big..."
"Really?" Shen Sibai looked down at his clothes, then turned sideways to look at himself in the mirror, waved his arms, and said uncertainly: "It seems... it is indeed a little big...?"
"Right, right..." Xia Linxing came over and struck while the iron was hot, "Let's change it, change it..."
"Okay..." Chen Sibai glanced at the little face next to him, smiled, and reached out to pinch Xia Linxing's cheek, "Then listen to Xingxing..."
Xingxing retreated contentedly, and generously revealed the incident in which Shen Sibai pinched his face while in chaos.
He watched with satisfaction as Shen Sibai took off his coat and placed it on the table, then began to write down the changes that needed to be made on the note, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
In this way, he can sneak over at night and destroy the clothes... Although if Shen Sibai doesn't change the clothes and takes them back to the dormitory, Xia Linxing, who lives in the same dormitory, can also do it, but if you do bad things in the dormitory, you have to worry about whether other people will come back.
Even doing bad things is done with restraint.
It would be better for him to stay in the locker room and sneak out at night to do something.
Cheng Xuezhou also saw Xia Linxing change his clothes and leave his performance clothes in the dressing room.
He looked at the clothes on the table calmly for a few seconds, then turned around and left quietly, not knowing what he was thinking about.
…
late at night.
When the lights in all the trainee dormitories were turned off and only a few lights were left on in the corridor outside, a figure walked stealthily on the way to the locker room.
He walked on tiptoe along the wall in the corridor, his footsteps so light that they were almost inaudible. He turned his head from time to time to look around, as if he was afraid that someone would suddenly appear.
Fortunately, he was safe along the way. When he reached the door of the locker room, the figure was obviously relieved.
Although he knew that there was most likely no one in the locker room at this time, after pressing the door handle, he still carefully pushed the door open a crack and looked inside carefully.
Just with this one glance, he was extremely grateful for his own caution.
Because there were people in the locker room.
At this time, there was actually someone in the locker room!
The eyes glued to the crack of the door slowly widened in disbelief.
It was actually him? !
Why was he alone in the locker room in the middle of the night?
And…his eyes fell on the hand of the figure in the room.
If he saw it correctly, the person was holding a pair of scissors in his hand right now, right?
In the middle of the night, in an empty dressing room, the trainees' performance costumes, which had just been altered and were waiting to be worn on stage, were placed on the table. Also, there was a pair of silver scissors that reflected a sharp light under the dim ceiling light... It seemed very clear what would happen next.
Sure enough, I only heard a slight "click" sound next to my ear, and the sound of sharp scissors cutting through fabric came softly. The person in the room was lowering his head, concentrating on cutting gently along the seam on the back of the silver performance costume.
The sequins on the clothes fell down, and scattered glitter danced in the air.
If you ignore the occasional "clicking" sound, the picture itself is quite dreamy and beautiful.
In the dim warm yellow light, a handsome boy in pajamas with fluffy and soft curly hair stood quietly in front of the table, holding a silver, shiny performance costume in one hand and a pair of sharp silver scissors in the other, cutting slowly, gently and quietly.
Glitter that had fallen from his clothes danced around him, shimmering slightly in the dim light and reflecting colorful glimmers.
It was like there was an elf accompanying him.
——It would be even better if the performance costume in his hand was not his teammate Shen Sibai's.
Yes, Cheng Xuezhou had already recognized that the piece of clothing that Xia Linxing was holding in his hand and was being destroyed by him was exactly the one that Shen Sibai wore during the day.
It's even a version where the sleeves have been made smaller by the costume designer.
But now, it has become unrecognizable under Xia Linxing's hands.
Cheng Xuezhou looked at the scene in front of him, feeling both excited and surprised.
The reason for his excitement was simple, because he finally caught Xia Linxing's weakness again!
The reason for this strangeness is very simple. During the day, Xia Linxing and Shen Sibai's relationship seemed very good, and they didn't seem like plastic brothers. But at night, Xia Linxing sneaked over and cut Shen Sibai's clothes!
The performance will officially begin tomorrow afternoon!
That was why he came here secretly tonight: he wanted to secretly put on the performance costume that Xia Linxing wore during the day before the third performance officially began.
After all, in Cheng Xuezhou's opinion, this dress was originally worn by him (if nothing unexpected happened). So after seeing Xia Linxing wearing it during the day and the effect was so good, Cheng Xuezhou couldn't help himself.
For this reason, he brought his mobile phone with him when he came, intending to take a photo of himself after the change as a souvenir and save it for later use.
So, what deep hatred did Xia Linxing have with Shen Sibai that made him want to trip him up at such a crucial time before the performance? They were even in the same group!
Cheng Xuezhou shook his head and sighed, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket, put the camera to the crack of the door, aimed it at Xia Linxing cutting clothes with scissors, and pressed the photo button.
