"Fuck, Zhao Pengfei, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Looking at Zhao Pengfei's pale face, Du Chen was shocked.
"I'm fine, I'm just nervous."
Zhao Pengfei spoke word by word.
"You should go take a walk first, go to the bathroom and drink some water!"
Du Chen touched Zhao Pengfei's hand and found that both of his hands were cold. Du Chen didn't expect Zhao Pengfei to be so stage-frightened, so he could only let Zhao Pengfei walk around for a while to relieve the tension. If that didn't work, Du Chen would go on stage alone. He was afraid that Zhao Pengfei would faint in his current state, and then it would be fun!
"Okay, I'll go take a break first, and come back later!"
After hearing Du Chen's words, Zhao Pengfei finally felt relieved. Anyway, it didn't matter what he did as long as he was not allowed to stay here. Zhao Pengfei felt that he was having difficulty breathing while staying here.
"Okay, go and come back quickly!"
Du Chen had been waiting backstage, after all, his show was earlier. When it was the seventh show, Zhao Pengfei finally came back, and he looked much better.
"Zhao Pengfei, you're finally back! Our show will be starting soon! I was really worried you'd run away!"
Seeing Zhao Pengfei coming back, Du Chen was relieved, but also a little surprised. He was relieved because Zhao Pengfei came back in time, but he was surprised that Zhao Pengfei didn't run away. He was already prepared to perform on stage alone.
"How could that be? A real man sticks to his guns! Since I've already promised you, I won't back out! You really look down on me!"
Zhao Pengfei spoke to Du Chen seriously, although there was no confidence in his words.
"Zhao Pengfei, I was wrong! I'm sorry, I apologize to you."
Du Chen apologized to Zhao Pengfei. Seeing that the performance was about to start, Du Chen decided not to be so harsh in words. It would not be worth it if he scared the child.
Zhao Pengfei snorted and stopped talking.
Time goes back to more than ten minutes ago.
After Zhao Pengfei went to the toilet and returned to the backstage, he felt the urge to urinate again. After wandering outside for a long time, Zhao Pengfei gritted his teeth and prepared to go to the toilet again and then run away. Seeing so many people backstage just now, Zhao Pengfei felt his calves cramping. To be honest, Zhao Pengfei decided that he did not have the courage to go on stage to perform.
Since he had decided to quit the show, Zhao Pengfei stomped his feet and prepared to turn around and leave. However, he had only taken two steps when he heard someone calling his name from behind.
"Zhao Pengfei! Where are you going?"
Zhao Pengfei turned around and found that his mother was staring at him not far away in the backstage. Zhao Pengfei instantly felt that he was doomed.
"Mom, why are you here?"
Zhao Pengfei asked his mother a little nervously.
"Why can't I come over? I came to see if your makeup is smudged and to touch it up for you."
Zhao Pengfei's mother stared at Zhao Pengfei. She felt that something was wrong with her son.
"Mom, look at me, I'm fine! Go back and watch the show!"
Zhao Pengfei tried to calm himself down, hoping that his mother would leave here as soon as possible.
"Oh, so what are you going to do?"
"Mom, I need to go to the bathroom! I need to go to the bathroom when I'm nervous!"
Zhao Pengfei said half-truthfully.
"real?"
"Of course it's true!"
Zhao Pengfei pretended to look aggrieved.
"Are you trying to run away, kid?"
Zhao Pengfei's mother stared at him suspiciously.
"Mom, what are you talking about? I just want to go to the bathroom!"
Hearing his mother's doubts, Zhao Pengfei's heart skipped a beat. How could his mother guess what he was thinking? Zhao Pengfei was secretly anxious.
"Come on, I'll go to the bathroom with you!"
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Pengfei's mother's words made Zhao Pengfei's face change.
"Mom, what are you doing? You don't trust me. You have to watch me while I'm going to the bathroom!"
Zhao Pengfei said to his mother dissatisfiedly. Although he complained, he was already panicking in his heart.
"Who wants to watch you? I want to go to the bathroom too, can't I?"
Zhao Pengfei's mother looked at him with a smile, and finally Zhao Pengfei had no choice but to go to the toilet and return to the backstage obediently.
"What are you standing there for, Zhao Pengfei? The next show is ours, get ready!"
Du Chen looked at Zhao Pengfei who was still in a daze beside him, and had no choice but to pat his arm, hoping that Zhao Pengfei would wake up.
When Zhao Pengfei heard that the next program was his, he couldn't help but get nervous again. He just felt that time passed so quickly.
"Teachers and students, the next program is Du Chen and Zhao Pengfei from Class 30, who will perform the song 'My Future Is Not a Dream.' Please welcome them with applause!"
Zhao Pengfei was still in a daze when he heard the senior student in front of him announcing the program. It was his and Du Chen's program. For a moment, Zhao Pengfei felt his hands and feet were cold and he couldn't even walk.
"Zhao Pengfei, hurry up! Don't be afraid!"
Seeing that Du Chen was about to go on stage, Zhao Pengfei gritted his teeth and trotted to catch up with Du Chen. As soon as Du Chen walked onto the stage, Zhao Pengfei, who was nervous, stumbled and appeared on the stage.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Zhao Pengfei's "unique" way of taking the stage caused the students below to burst into laughter. The school leaders in the front row also shook their heads and laughed. Du Chen turned his head to look at Zhao Pengfei and found that his face was red and white, and he was obviously completely stunned.
"Oh! Thank you all for your laughter and support! Look, this is my partner, Zhao Pengfei! Zhao Pengfei, you're trying to steal my thunder with such a unique stage performance, aren't you?"
Seeing Zhao Pengfei's nervousness, Du Chen had no choice but to stand in front of the microphone to help him out and distract him. Zhao Pengfei finally regained some composure and moved his lips, as if to say something, but no words came out.
"Hey, Zhao Pengfei, why don't you say anything? Okay, I get it! Silence means you agree, right? You admit that you want to steal my limelight, right? But let me tell you! I'm the lead singer, and you're the backup dancer! You have to distinguish between the primary and the secondary, okay? I'm the protagonist, so don't even think about stealing my limelight, classmates, right?"
"right!"
“That’s right!”
Du Chen's two words delighted the entire audience. The leaders in the audience nodded and smiled, very pleased with Du Chen's quick response. At this moment, Zhao Pengfei finally recovered. Looking at the laughing and noisy classmates in the audience, he suddenly felt less scared on stage.
"Thank you all for your support! It seems like you all like me more! See, Zhao Pengfei, just dance obediently behind me and act as a backdrop!"
Seeing Zhao Pengfei recover, Du Chen breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to get into the main performance.
Zhao Pengfei nodded, walked towards Du Chen, and was about to stand behind Du Chen to start his performance, but for some unknown reason, when he passed by Du Chen, Zhao Pengfei said something into the microphone.
