Chapter 33 First Performance 15.0
After the interview, Xie Qingyu and other team members returned to the waiting room.
When I pushed open the door, it was very lively inside and the contestants were discussing something enthusiastically.
The live broadcast screen on the wall has jumped to the sponsor's advertising page, and it is obvious that the performance of the "Carousel" group has ended.
Judging from the players' excited expressions and the restless atmosphere in the waiting room, their performance should be quite outstanding.
As soon as they entered the door, the contestants in the waiting room stood up and greeted them enthusiastically.
Some people waved, some called out names, and the atmosphere was as warm as welcoming a triumphant hero.
In the corner, a familiar figure was waving at him excitedly, his face full of anticipation.
Xie Qingyu hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in that direction, then found a seat by the side and sat down.
For some reason, he suddenly felt an inexplicable irritability and anxiety in his heart, as if something was blocking his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
He tried to figure out the source of this emotion, but his thoughts were like a tangled mess and he couldn't make any sense of it.
Just then, the familiar figure came over, with a hint of grievance in his tone.
"Brother, why don't you come and sit with me? I saved this seat for you."
Xie Qingyu forced a smile, shook his head, and said softly: "It's okay, I'll just sit here."
The other party obviously noticed his abnormality and asked cautiously, "What's wrong? Did the interviewer ask you something that upset you?"
These words were like a needle, gently piercing the thin line of defense in Xie Qingyu's heart.
Looking at Leo's sparkling eyes looking at him, Xie Qingyu suddenly felt deflated.
It’s a bit funny to think that I always try to be someone else’s “life mentor”, but I didn’t expect that one day I would start to waste my energy internally.
I know clearly that the most taboo thing in the entertainment industry is self-exhaustion and thinking too much. If you keep letting yourself be disturbed by your thoughts for a long time, you don’t need anyone else!
You will drag yourself down.
Never take yourself too seriously! Not many people are willing to waste their energy on you...
"It's not a big deal, I just got a little sentimental all of a sudden."
Xie Qingyu smiled at him, her smile still as warm as usual, as if nothing was different.
——
All the groups' performances have ended, and the contestants in the waiting room are anxiously waiting for Gu Yan's "Carousel" group to return.
The final overall ranking will be announced soon, and the destination of the bonus votes will also be determined.
There was a tense and expectant atmosphere in the air, and even breathing became cautious.
At this moment, there was a sudden "bang" sound at the door, and everyone's attention was drawn over.
Wei Liangchen was seen holding the door frame with both hands, striking an exaggerated pose with a smug smile on his face: "Everyone, your Chen is back, ha-ha-ha-ha!"
The waiting room was instantly filled with boos and laughter, and someone couldn't help but complain: "Ugh—this guy has started it again!"
In the corner, You Jinzhao suddenly squatted down and covered his face with his hands, as if trying to hide himself.
Ever since he returned to the waiting room and learned that someone had exposed his "relationship" with Wei Liangchen, he had already lost all hope in life and had anticipated his current social demise, as he knew that person's nature so well.
Seeing this, the contestant next to him couldn't help but tease: "Are you crazy?"
You Jinzhao looked up blankly, revealing an innocent expression, and said with a hint of helplessness: "Ha, I don't know. We're not that familiar with each other."
That's right, he chose to deny it. What childhood friend? As long as he doesn't admit it, it has nothing to do with him. Social death can't catch up with him!
However, his "playing dumb" obviously didn't work, and the contestants around him all laughed, obviously not buying his "disassociation".
Gu Yan and other team members were once again blocked outside the door by him. If you ask him how he feels now, all he feels is regret, and more regret...
How could he have been so bewildered as to believe the arrogant and cool personality that Wei Liangchen pretended to be in the dormitory and even chose him as his teammate?
Now looking at Wei Liangchen acting weird at the door of the waiting room, he couldn't help but hold his forehead slightly: Is it too late to return the goods now?
Just as he was about to step forward and pull Wei Liangchen away, he didn't expect that the other party had already rushed in by himself.
Changed personality? Stop causing trouble?
Gu Yan sighed helplessly and walked into the waiting room.
He knew in his heart that it was impossible for this guy not to cause trouble. This guy was simply a fool, a "trouble maker" who destroyed things wherever he went.
As soon as Wei Liangchen entered the waiting room, his eyes were fixed on Xie Qingyu and Leo.
He strode over, squeezed in between the two of them, and pretended to sit on their laps.
The two of them unconsciously leaned to the side, and Wei Liangchen took the opportunity to sit down between them, successfully pushing Leo aside.
Leo's face darkened instantly, but Wei Liangchen didn't care at all. Instead, he leaned close to Xie Qingyu's ear, ready to whisper something to him in a low voice without letting anyone else hear!
His movements were mysterious and his voice was extremely low. Although the contestants around him could not hear what he was saying, their curiosity was aroused and they all leaned over with their ears perked up.
Even the photography teacher couldn't help but set up his camera to try to capture their conversation.
But... Wei Liangchen is such a sharp person. He pretended to talk, and suddenly turned around. The contestants immediately sat up straight and pretended to talk and laugh with the team members next to them, as if they didn't care what they were saying.
Wei Liangchen curled his lips and was too lazy to argue with them.
He turned his head and looked at the camera that was approaching, and said speechlessly: "Teacher, it's almost touching my face."
The photographer stepped back a centimeter in embarrassment.
Fine! You won't retreat, right?! We'll retreat!!!
He stood up and dragged Xie Qingyu to the back corner of the waiting room. He turned around and said to Leo out of nowhere, "Don't follow me!"
Leo stared at him, too angry to speak.
Xie Qingyu was pulled to a corner by him and sat down. She was a little curious about what this guy wanted to say.
Wei Liangchen made a mysterious gesture, asking him to come closer.
Although I had a hunch that he had nothing good to say, I still leaned over and listened to what he meant.
"Well, benefactor. I was right, wasn't I? You look amazing on stage in this outfit."
After Wei Liangchen finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows and gave Xie Qingyu a look that said "you know what I mean."
Xie Qingyu looked bewildered and looked down at her own performance costume, not getting his point at all.
Seeing this, Wei Liangchen was so disappointed that he made the "shit" shape with his mouth.
Seeing that Xie Qingyu still didn't react, thinking that he still didn't understand, he said "Ouch" and pretended to go over to explain.
However, Xie Qingyu pushed the dog head away expressionlessly, turned around and said to him with a fake smile: "Honey! No need to explain, I really don't want to understand this~"
"Oh, you have to understand~, I haven't told others yet, but I'm telling you...blah blah"
Just when Xie Qingyu was about to collapse from Wei Liangchen's "dun-dun teaching", the sponsor advertisement on the live broadcast screen in front finally ended.
Data started popping up on the screen one after another. It was obvious that the vote counting in the background had been completed and the overall ranking would be announced soon.
Xie Qingyu interrupted Wei Liangchen's chatter as if he had found a savior, and said, "The overall ranking is out," and then fled to the front row, ready to wait for the results with his teammates.
Wei Liangchen was unwilling to give up and wanted to chase after him to continue his "teaching", but he was grabbed by Gu Liang on the way and forced to sit on the seat next to him.
"Behave yourself, this is a critical moment." Gu Qi's tone was filled with helplessness and warning.
Wei Liangchen curled his lips, and although he was a little reluctant, he still sat down obediently.
Xie Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Wei Liangchen, who was chasing him, being intercepted by Gu Qiong.
This man! So terrifying!!
He quickly walked to the row where the Banana group was sitting, and scanned the seats. He found that there was an empty seat next to Bai Tang, the outermost seat closest to his current position.
Xie Qingyu hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to go around from the back and sit next to Qian Song on the other side.
Although this action was subtle, Sun Lele saw it clearly.
He rubbed his cheeks and pretended to turn his head to look at Bai Lang casually, only to see that the other party's long eyelashes were slightly closed, with an indifferent expression, as if he didn't care about all this.
Seeing Xie Qingyu sitting over, Qian Song greeted him with a smile.
The two sat for a while, the data on the screen was still jumping, and the ranking had not yet been officially announced.
Qian Song couldn't help but move closer to Xie Qingyu and asked in a low voice, "What did Wei Liangchen say to you just now?"
Xie Qingyu wanted to treat everything that had just happened as a dream and forget it completely!
Hearing Qian Song's question, he turned his head and looked at him with a look that said, "Why have you changed?"
There was a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Song, how have you changed? You weren't like this before!"
Qian Song touched the back of his head awkwardly and laughed dryly: "Haha, I'm just asking. If it's something personal, you don't have to tell me."
Xie Qingyu sighed and quickly summarized in a low voice: "Ahem, he taught me how to connect with fans through dressing up."
"ah?"
Qian Song was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his hands, looking a little embarrassed.
"Well... could you teach me that as well? I think I really need this."
Xie Qingyu's psychological defenses collapsed instantly. He buried his head in his legs and covered his ears which were red and bleeding.
I will probably never wake up from this dream!!!
