Chapter 109 Going Out to Play
Lu Yao did not have a New Year’s Eve dinner.
Or it could be said that it existed, but Lu Yao didn't film it.
Although Lu Yao was alone, his aunt would come every day at mealtime to prepare the day's meals. On Chinese New Year's Day, his aunt also came early and prepared a very sumptuous meal.
But one person simply couldn't eat so much food, so Lu Yao asked his aunt to take most of it away.
Then, when arranging the New Year business tasks, Ding Ling also very considerately skipped Lu Yao.
How should I put it? The original intention of sharing the New Year’s Eve dinner is to share the joy of the New Year, but Lu Yao... Ding Ling was not sure whether the other party felt the joy of the New Year.
So I just skipped this step.
However, this situation could not be explained to the fans, so on New Year's Eve, the fans hunkered down on their own Weibo, liked and commented on the trainees' Weibo posts as soon as they were published, and also posted their own New Year's Eve dinner photos in the comment section, but Lu Yao's Weibo was empty.
Starting from five o'clock, fans kept waiting, waiting until six o'clock, seven o'clock, eight o'clock... until eleven o'clock. At this time, it was no longer possible to share the New Year's Eve dinner, and fans were sure that Lu Yao did not open his blog during the New Year.
No, why?
Lu Yao doesn’t post much on Weibo normally, and now you don’t post to him during the Chinese New Year?
What's going on? Are you blatantly trying to sabotage me?
It seemed like another foreseeable rights protection action, but when Song Rui checked Weibo, she found that Shen Sisi's Weibo was quiet, as if nothing had happened.
This was so abnormal that Song Rui felt very nervous.
Did Shen Sisi stop being a follower? That's not right, the pinned post on Weibo hasn't changed.
She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she just sent a message to ask.
I’m also fighting today: You… aren’t you going to defend your rights today?
Song Rui wanted to ask in a more tactful way, but after adjusting her wording several times, she found that she had to ask directly and to the point.
Shen Sisi replied quickly.
Tired of fighting: No rights protection
I am also playing with dust today:! !
shock.
Song Rui didn't expect that Shen Sisi would really not defend her rights. Is the sun rising from the west?
Tired of playing: [Weibo link]
Just when Song Rui was confused, Shen Sisi sent her a link. Song Rui clicked on it and saw that it was the stage video Weibo that Lu Yao had posted before.
Why forward this Weibo to her?
Fight until we get tired of it; you see, this is Lu Yao's response to us. He knows that we have suffered a lot during this period and it has been very hard, so he said that we don't have to do anything, just keep looking at him [crying]
Xiaolu is very brave. When faced with difficulties, he will move forward bravely. When we are afraid, he will take the initiative to stand in front of us to protect us. Even if there is no stage, he will take the initiative to fight for it. He loves us so much that he is afraid that we will be hurt in the slightest.
So we will never do anything that will hurt ourselves again.
We will believe in Lu Yao and believe that he has enough strength to face everything
And we will always watch him, only watch him, support him
Companionship is the greatest strength
Song Rui: ...
Don't quite understand, but respect.
Turning off the phone, Song Rui tried to analyze.
Is this the difference between solo fans and group fans, or a difference in mindset? Why was Shen Sisi able to see so much from that Weibo post, while she saw nothing? Was this what Lu Yao meant by that Weibo post?
Song Rui was puzzled.
However, although Song Rui was somewhat puzzled by the process by which Shen Sisi came to this conclusion, she still supported Shen Sisi's decision.
Maybe she is a woman who is so easily persuaded. When Shen Sisi was defending her rights every day, although she felt that she was defending her rights too much, she also felt that Shen Sisi's approach did make some sense. If fans do not make their voices heard, how can the company know the fans' attitudes?
Now that Shen Sisi has decided not to defend her rights, Song Rui thinks that's fine. Lu Yao is truly a resolute and courageous man. After facing so many rounds of online violence since he went public, he's still able to face offline anti-corruption efforts without fear, and even gave such a wonderful performance at his family concert a week later. This speaks volumes about Lu Yao's inner strength. Such a person can protect himself. Knowing that someone has his back is surely the greatest encouragement for him, right?
So, while other fans were discussing the fact that Lu Yao did not post on Weibo, Lu Yao's fans were surprisingly calm.
It seems that after experiencing the storms of the past period of time, no matter what happens next, it will not cause any waves in their hearts.
They believe in Lu Yao, only watch Lu Yao, and support Lu Yao.
I believe that Lu Yao has his own ideas and his own expressions. He will not be bound by others and will live freely in this world.
After watching the comments of her fans, Song Rui quietly quit Weibo.
It is certainly a good thing to be able to think more open-mindedly. Before, she felt a little tired just by watching the star chasing, but now, isn’t it a bit too much and too open-minded?
Is Lu Yao completely sure?
Song Rui didn't know how to react, but anyway, the fact that Lu Yao didn't post on Weibo caused a small-scale discussion, but then it passed without any disturbance.
The next day is New Year's Day, the day to visit relatives and go out for fun.
Fans are busy with social activities in real life and no longer have the energy to chase stars on the Internet.
Early that morning, Lu Yao was still doing his morning exercises when the villa, which had been quiet for two days, welcomed an unexpected guest.
"Ting ting!" As soon as Bai You opened the door to the rooftop, he saw Lu Yao: "I guessed you were here!"
He sat down at the table by the wall very consciously and watched Lu Yao practice Tai Chi slowly and leisurely.
Lu Yao didn't say anything, but Bai You was used to it.
"It's winter, aren't you cold wearing only so little clothes?" Bai You sat down, but his mouth was busy.
Lu Yao has many sets of clothes for practicing martial arts, but each set is almost the same style, or it can be said that all of Lu Yao's clothes are similar in style, with only differences in color and pattern.
In winter, Lu Yao wears the same clothes as usual, but he adds a few coats on the outside that look very warm.
But now Lu Yao is not wearing a coat.
Lu Yao seemed not to hear Bai You's question, nor to notice Bai You as a person, and was concentrating on doing his own actions.
Not getting a response, Bai You was not anxious and did not ask any further questions. He quickly changed the topic and talked a lot.
"Today is New Year's Day! Let's go out and play together!"
"They wanted to come too, but there were too many people and they might be discovered, so in the end I was the only one who came."
"Where are we going to play today? Is there any place you want to go?"
"What do you say we go burn some incense? I heard there's a temple there that's really good!"
"Or should we go hiking? I haven't been hiking in a long time. It would be nice to breathe some fresh air. Besides, it's winter, so there shouldn't be many people in the mountains."
"How about we go shopping? I got a lot of New Year's money, hehe, it's a perfect time to spend it."
So on the rooftop where the cold wind was blowing, one person was practicing Tai Chi quietly, while the other was talking with gestures. The contrast between the quiet and the dynamic was very clear.
After Lu Yao finished a set of moves, he turned to look at Bai You. Without saying a word, he just nodded slightly at Bai You and walked towards the stairs.
Bai You followed very quickly.
Once inside, the warmth from the heater quickly swept through Bai You's body, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.
Lu Yao then slowly replied.
"It's not cold, you can go out and play."
As they walked and talked, when they returned to the third floor, Lu Yao also decided on today's activity: "Let's go hiking."
Bai You agreed immediately: "No problem!"
After deciding on the destination, Bai You was about to go out excitedly, but before leaving, he discovered another problem.
When Lu Yao wears his own clothes, it is too conspicuous. It is simply telling everyone, I am Lu Yao, Lu Yao is here, everyone look!
Bai You opened his closet, intending to offer his clothes as a favor, but he discovered that since he hadn't been to the dormitory for a long time, the clothes in his closet had long been stuck in the summer and had never been updated since then.
He looked at Lu Yao in confusion. Could it be that their climbing plan was going to end before it even started?
Lu Yao immediately gave a solution: "Go to the company to get the clothes."
Bai You's eyes lit up.
The company has so many clothes, suitable for all seasons.
Just two seconds into his happiness, a new problem came to Bai You's mind.
“How do we get to the company?”
Although the company is only a ten-minute drive from the dormitory, there is no public transportation. They usually rely on assistants to pick them up and drop them off. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the assistants are on vacation. There is no one to pick them up. How should they go to the company?
Want a taxi?
Bai You felt that it might be difficult to get a taxi on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
This question was not a problem at all in Lu Yao's eyes. He said calmly: "Run over there."
Bai You picked his ears, suspecting he was hallucinating.
"Run over? Are you serious?"
Although he asked this, Bai You knew that Lu Yao never joked. He said he would run over, which meant that this was what Lu Yao planned to do.
So after Lu Yao changed into clothes for going out, the two of them walked out of the villa's gate. Bai You felt the cold wind blowing in gusts and wanted to take back his suggestion to go hiking.
In fact, it is also very happy to stay in the heated room and watch TV and play games on the first day of the New Year.
But as soon as this thought came to mind, Bai You immediately dismissed it.
Staying in the villa every day, no matter whether it is happy or not, you can't stay in the villa forever! Lu Yao has been in the villa for such a long time, and he has never gone out to play in the city for more than half a year. Now that he finally has the opportunity, how can he give up so easily!
Bai You encouraged himself, quickly made up his mind, and nodded firmly to Lu Yao.
"Let's go!"
But… I have the determination, but not much physical strength.
After finally running to the company, Bai You felt that he might not be able to climb the mountain.
No, I knew Lu Yao had good stamina, but was he really that strong? He ran such a long distance at such a speed, yet he looked so calm and composed. Is he still human?
After catching his breath for a long time, Bai You finally came to his senses.
There was no one in the company on New Year's Day, so the two of them came to the dressing room, where there was a wide variety of clothes.
In addition to stage costumes, there are also countless everyday outfits.
Normally when they were recording material, the stylist would go into the dressing room, pick out a dozen or so outfits, and ask them to change into them.
All I can say is that with the frequency and number of people they record the materials, and the fact that the clothes are different every time, it is enough to imagine how many clothes there are in the dressing room.
The purpose of coming to the company this time was to go hiking without being recognized, and to ensure that I would not be too hot or too cold during exercise, so choosing clothes was not something I could do casually.
Bai You turned left and right, and felt that each of these clothes was very handsome, the kind of handsome that would stand out when worn and attract others to take a second look.
If Lu Yao wore clothes like this to climb a mountain, wouldn't that be the end? How many eyes would he attract? And then everyone would recognize him. Then why climb a mountain? He could just go home.
After hesitating for a while, Bai You still had no idea what to do. Lu Yao had already quickly taken his clothes and went into the changing room to change.
Hearing the noise, Bai You turned around and found that Lu Yao seemed to have already picked out the clothes.
That’s really fast.
Since Lu Yao had already picked out the clothes, Bai You didn't worry about it anymore.
He didn't need to change his clothes. He bought these clothes with his parents at the mall the day before the New Year. It was a very low-key black short down jacket and black jeans. It was warm and low-key, very suitable for today's trip.
But maybe I need to add a hat to cover my face.
Thinking of this, Bai You picked out a baseball cap and a scarf for himself.
Wearing a mask and a hat in the winter may be quite conspicuous, but it will be much better if you change it to a scarf. If you wrap the scarf a little higher, it can also have a good face-covering effect.
After getting dressed, Bai You looked left and right in front of the mirror. He felt that his disguise was simply perfect. When he went out later, there was no way he would be recognized.
Lu Yao also changed his clothes and came out.
Bai You heard the voice and turned to look.
The first thing that caught the eye was Lu Yao's clothes: a long, fluffy and soft down jacket, and a pair of light blue jeans. It was a very well-behaved outfit combination, but looking up, Lu Yao was wearing a four-cornered woolen hat with a circle of white fluff around the brim, loosely covering Lu Yao's eyebrows and eyes. The two corners of the hat, coupled with the soft fluff and Lu Yao's big eyes looking at him, made him as cute as a kitten.
At the same time, Lu Yao's idea coincided with Bai You's. He also wore a scarf that matched his jeans. It was blue and white in color and was loosely wrapped around his neck, covering half of his face. Only when Lu Yao moved could the red corners of his lips be seen.
No? Wearing like this?
Although it does cover the face almost completely, and it is indeed different from the usual style, but, but, isn’t this a little too cute?
It’s totally my sister!
Looking from the back, with Lu Yao's long hair loose, what's the difference between him and a girl?
Bai You was shocked for a moment, then nodded vigorously at Lu Yao's inquiring gaze.
"Very good, very suitable! No one will recognize you."
Bai Youshi knows that there are many fans who are tirelessly sculpting them and are committed to photoshopping beautiful photos of each trainee in women's clothing. He also knows that every time they wear women's clothing, the fans are very excited and the enthusiasm will be very high.
But recording a show is one thing, and doing it in private is another.
After being covered in clay so often in front of the camera, people always wish they could be more masculine in private. For example, Wang Mingzhi has the words "reject clay sculptures" written all over his body.
But what’s the difference between Lu Yao’s current outfit and making himself look like a muddy mess?
Just take a photo and it can be passed off as a photo of you wearing women's clothing.
Although there is indeed not much difference between men's and women's basic down jackets and jeans, why does Lu Yao look so furry in them?
Dressing like this reflects Lu Yao’s personality, that of a warrior.
Looks like a girl? No problem at all, just be safe.
After solving the clothing problem, the two left the company and headed straight for the subway station.
What to do if no one picks you up on New Year’s Day? Of course you have to rely on public transportation.
Bai You didn't take the subway very often, and Lu Yao had never taken it even once. The two of them studied the ticket machine in the subway station for a long time before they finally bought the tickets they wanted and got on the subway.
There were not too many people on the subway, and Bai You didn't dare to look around for fear that someone would notice him, so he pulled Lu Yao to look down at his phone the whole time, each with an earphone, and watched the variety show together.
The variety show was very good and Bai You kept laughing. When the subway arrived at the station, it was only when Lu Yao reminded him that he reacted.
After getting out of the subway, the sky outside was clear and the air was fresh. Although it was a bit cold, it was a good day.
Bai You exhaled, and the breath condensed into a white mist in the cold air. He looked up at the nearby mountain, waved his hand, and his heart was filled with heroic spirit: "Let's go! Let's conquer this mountain!"
——Then he almost died halfway up the mountain.
Sitting in the pavilion and eating grilled sausages, Bai You was resting and questioning.
That's not right. This is unscientific. How could he be so tired halfway up the mountain?
It's not like he's never climbed this mountain before, and it wasn't this tiring before. And who is he? He's a trainee. They practice a lot, and are all their daily PE classes in vain? How could he be so easily defeated by a mountain?
"You're too thin now." Lu Yao glanced at Bai You. "You've lost too much weight, and your physical strength can't keep up."
"Is that so?" Bai You's eyes widened. "Then is this also the reason why my dancing strength has weakened?"
Lu Yao nodded.
"Ah..." Bai You's 'ah' was repeated over and over again. He didn't say anything, but his tone expressed everything.
How could this be? Can't you have both strength and beauty?
No, doesn’t Lu Yao have both strength and beauty?
Bai You was sad for a while, but soon cheered up again. In order to lose weight, he had been eating "grass" for several months in a row. He ate less and rested less, so a decline in physical strength was foreseeable. Although it affected his dancing a little, he couldn't let himself gain weight again just to restore his previous physical strength. Body management is a must for idols.
Maybe I can adjust my dance style in the future to reduce the physical exertion.
With this idea in mind, Bai You was no longer worried. After eating the sausages and resting for a while, the two of them set out on the mountain climbing journey again.
There were not many people climbing the mountain today, and it was still early. Bai You went from home to the villa, waited for Lu Yao, and then went to the company together. After changing clothes, they set out to climb the mountain again. After this series of trips, they were now halfway up the mountain, and it was not yet twelve o'clock, and it was still morning.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone went to visit relatives. Even if they had to go out, most people would probably go to the temple to burn incense. It would be rare to go hiking alone.
So Lu Yao and Bai You didn't meet many people along the way. When they finally climbed to the top of the mountain, there were even fewer people. Even the shops on the top of the mountain were closed.
At least you can buy grilled sausages in Baiyou halfway up the mountain, but when you reach the top, you can't buy anything even if you have money.
But climbing a mountain is not about eating sausages. What is important is the process of climbing and the beautiful scenery from a high place.
The two walked to the observation deck. Lu Yao lowered his eyes and looked into the distance. The panoramic view of Beijing was right at his feet. The rows of buildings and the bustling streets were the result of years of hard work by mankind.
Bai You raised his hands high, as if embracing the entire sky.
The sun came out, casting a golden halo over the city.
Very beautiful.
Bai You withdrew his hand and turned to look at Lu Yao. The sunlight cast a hazy halo behind him. The other party was staring at the city in the distance, with a strange and gentle expression on his face, a look Bai You had never seen before.
Others always say that Lu Yao is difficult to understand, but Bai You thinks Lu Yao is very simple.
Like a mirror, it reflects everything around it honestly.
If others are good, he will be good too.
If others are evil, he will be evil too.
His behavior in society depends entirely on the attitudes of others.
Bai You is always happy every time he is with Lu Yao, so Bai You is also happy every time he sees Lu Yao.
Just like now.
*
The way down the mountain was more painful than going up. When Bai You finally reached the foot of the mountain, he felt his legs were trembling.
But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Bai You's phone rang.
I picked it up and saw, wow, it was Ding Ling.
This is so scary.
I went out to play on the first day of the Lunar New Year and received a call from my boss.
Is it a good thing or a good thing or a good thing?
Bai You couldn't laugh.
He gestured to Lu Yao and walked aside to answer the phone.
As soon as the phone was connected, Ding Ling's voice rang out.
"You went out to play?"
It was just five words, but the tone sounded like the Grim Reaper calling for his soul.
But Bai You breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that he and Lu Yao were photographed, but that doesn't matter much.
"Yes." Bai You nodded at the phone, then quickly added, "Lu Yao and I are together."
"With Lu Yao?" Ding Ling raised the last line of her voice, not quite believing it.
"Yeah." Bai You nodded repeatedly, "He's right next to me now. Do you want him to answer the phone instead?"
Ding Ling: "Let him take it."
Bai You walked over to Lu Yao and handed him the phone.
Lu Yao took the phone calmly and put it to his ear: "Hello."
When Ding Ling heard it, she believed it. Who else could it be but Lu Yao, speaking in a tone that sounded like a human machine?
Ding Ling's tone softened instantly: "Did you and Bai You go hiking?"
Lu Yao: “Yes.”
Ding Ling: "Then have fun, be safe, go home early, and call me if you encounter any problems."
Lu Yao: "Okay."
Ding Ling: "Then give the phone to Bai You."
The phone returned to Bai You's hands. Ding Ling's tone was no longer angry, but still not gentle. "Why didn't you tell us that you were going to play with Lu Yao?"
Bai You said innocently, "I told you, didn't I send you a message?"
Ding Ling was shocked and quickly opened the chat software to search for Bai You, and found the message from Bai You.
Before the New Year's greetings, there was a message saying "Can I go visit Lu Yao today?"
No, what kind of good person would send out important messages first and then send out nonsense?
The problem is that there are too many New Year greetings and she can’t receive them all.
