Before going on stage, Lu Yanhe and Yan Liang looked at Li Zhibai frequently.
Li Zhibai noticed their gazes, waved his hands, and said, "Don't worry about me, I'm fine."
"Are you really okay?" Yan Liang muttered.
Li Zhibai showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
Lu Yanhe: "You'd better stop smiling. If you go on stage with this smile, you'll be ranked higher on the trending searches."
Li Zhibai's smile disappeared and he curled his lips.
But Li Zhibai is still Li Zhibai. Before going on stage, he finally adjusted his emotional state.
"I won't let you down. Don't blame me if you do."
Lu Yanhe and others: "..."
Who's that bastard with a sour face in front of me for almost an hour?!
-
Looking at the five young men cooperating well on the stage and creating waves of heat, Vice President Ma's eyes were a little gloomy.
He had nothing to do at home tonight, so he was watching the show.
However, the performance of these artists in his company did not meet his expectations at all.
Lu Yanhe and others who had been severely suppressed before performed very well in their individual performances. Even if you were not there, you could tell from the video how good the effect was, especially the five-person performance of "Dream Chasing Boy". This song is the only chorus song they have sung over and over again in the past few years. Even he has heard it countless times and is already tired of it. However, tonight there is a brand new arrangement and a brand new stage design, which is eye-opening.
However, the most popular MX suffered a direct defeat and made frequent mistakes.
It seems that recent events have greatly affected their condition.
Vice President Ma's eyes were dark and he was silent for a long time.
He did think about Ma Zhiyuan for a long time.
Including many things Lin Suyang said to him, including his proposal yesterday.
Do you really want to do that?
-
The performance of "Dream Chaser" was successfully won.
The brand-new arrangement and stage design became very popular after they were released online. After the performance video was released, the number of views exceeded one million in just half an hour.
Li Zhibai's very bad mood improved after the performance, and he was no longer gloomy and silent.
As soon as he stepped off the stage, Li Zhibai raised his chin slightly, glanced at them, and said, "Look at how worried you all looked before you went on stage. Do I need you to worry about me?"
"Awesome!" Yan Liang said immediately.
Cheng Hai smiled and nodded, "It has to be you."
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Indeed, it has to be you."
Li Zhibai raised his chin, shook his head, and raised the corners of his mouth proudly.
At this point, all their performances were over and they could go home.
They first go back to the dressing room to remove their makeup, otherwise if they go back and do it themselves, it will be difficult to clean with hairspray and other things.
Chen Ziyan and Zhou Pingan were waiting for them in the dressing room.
Seeing them come back, Chen Ziyan applauded and said, "You performed well just now. It's much better than the performances I've seen you perform before. A week of intensive training is indeed useful."
Several young men were smiling widely.
Li Zhibai was smiling, but when he saw Zhou Ping'an, the smile disappeared from his face.
Intentional.
At this time, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in." Chen Ziyan said.
A tall man opened the door and came in, calling out "Sister Zi Yan".
Chen Ziyan carried her bag and said, "We're ready to leave. It's too late. I can't stand it any longer. Chen Gang will take you back later."
She turned to look at Zhou Ping'an: "Are you going or not? Anyway, the kids live together, so Chen Gang can send them off as well."
"Okay." Zhou Ping'an nodded, glanced at Li Zhibai, Cheng Hai and the others, and said, "I'm leaving too."
After Chen Ziyan and Zhou Ping'an left, Li Zhibai immediately sneered, "Who cares if he leaves or not."
Cheng Hai patted Li Zhibai on the shoulder and said, "Don't confront him like this in front of everyone. You know how much he cares about his reputation. He was only 50% angry before, but now he's 100% angry."
Li Zhibai: "He's still angry? I'm not angry at all."
He frowned and said, "I have to find out whether the person who shot the laser pointer into my eyes is a fan of Ma Zhiyuan."

Although today's evening party was a mess during the on-site execution, it was a very successful party for Aurora.
The total number of people watching the live broadcast online exceeded 80 million, and the peak number of simultaneous viewers reached 63 million.
As soon as the party ended, Hou Jun got the complete data of tonight's live broadcast.
Northern Lights executives sent him congratulatory letters.
Hou Jun took a closer look at the peak viewership for tonight. Apart from the expected number of top stars, he did not expect that Lu Yanhe's impromptu interview segment would also reach 50 million viewers.
In this data age, nothing is more intuitive than data.
There are only 13 programs with more than 50 million concurrent viewers, and only three programs with more than 60 million concurrent viewers, one of which is MX.
"Dream Chaser" was a little short, with only over 56 million.
The popular group is still the popular group.
However, this was beyond Hou Jun's expectations.
Aurora Video is about to make a battle report.
Nowadays, various evening parties and programs like to make battle reports. The first is to build momentum for their own programs and increase bargaining chips for subsequent series. The second is to satisfy shareholders and create various topics and trends to raise the stock market's confidence in the group. The third is to get advertisers to pay. Look, the data is so good, hurry up and pay the balance, don't drag your feet.
The data of this evening party were very good in all aspects. Hou Jun instructed the person in charge to single out and praise the programs with more than 50 million simultaneous viewers.
After this statistic, they were surprised to find that Lu Yanhe actually had three programs with 50 million viewers, ranking first.
The person in charge asked, should Lu Yanhe be put together with the other first place?
The other first place winner is Chen Mo, a popular star. He will perform two solo songs and have a lucky draw tonight.
Being able to attract 50 million viewers for the lucky draw session, he truly deserves to be a top star.
Hou Jun thought about it and said, "Of course, why not?"
Originally, Lu Yanhe only had two programs, and that interview segment was not even a planned segment, it was just to save the situation. However, judging from the data, the number of viewers for that interview segment was even higher than when Lu Yanhe sang "Remember", which was almost 5 million more.
The energy of college entrance examination candidates.
The battle report was issued late at night.
It was so fast that Lu Yanhe and his friends saw it on their phones before they even got home.
Hou Jun also sent a special message to Lu Yanhe, saying, "Your performance tonight was fantastic. The audience's eyes are sharp."
Lu Yanhe was surprised.
The battle report shows that there are only eight artists who have two programs with over 50 million concurrent viewers, including him and Li Zhibai.
Cheng Hai's solo performance was right around 49 million, which was a pity that it did not break 50 million.
Lu Yanhe replied to Hou Jun: Thank you Director Hou for inviting me to participate!
Hou Jun: You performed so well tonight, I guess you will be invited to many parties.
Based on Hou Jun's understanding, he believes that talk shows will be the first to be affected.
Lu Yanhe can get so much attention in just a three-minute interview on stage, so what about recording a special episode?
There must be a lot of people interested in Lu Yanhe now.
Hou Jun didn't know, he was just thinking about it, Peng Zhixing had already sent a message to Lu Yanhe: Xiao Lu, are you interested in coming to my show?
Peng Zhixing just graduated and is also a contracted host of Northern Lights Video.
But because of his good image and outstanding abilities, Northern Lights Video has made great efforts in his training. In addition to the opportunity to host evening parties like tonight, they also specially opened an interview program for him to provide supporting interviews and promotions for the film and television works launched by Northern Lights Video.
After a brief contact tonight, Peng Zhixing left a deep impression on Lu Yanhe.
Because it is easy for a host to give people the feeling of being pretentious, artificial, and unfriendly, especially a young host who has just graduated from a professional college. However, Peng Zhixing gave Lu Yanhe a particularly sunny and cheerful feeling, and he also had strong professional abilities.
It was very sudden that he was interviewed at the last minute, but it was even more sudden that the host took on this temporary interview task.
At the critical moment, Peng Zhixing remained unmoved.
His hands were shaking slightly, but his voice was inaudible; he was calm and composed, performing the task with ease.
This also makes Lu Yanhe and Peng Zhixing have a friendship that allows them to overcome difficulties together.
Lu Yanhe remembered that Chen Ziyan had told him not to casually accept interviews about his college entrance examination results.
He took a screenshot and sent it to Chen Ziyan, asking if he could be on Peng Zhixing's show.
Chen Ziyan asked: Do you want to go up?
Lu Yanhe said: Brother Xing took good care of me today. He invited me to his show and I felt embarrassed to refuse.
Chen Ziyan: Then go ahead. The scores have been out for so long, it’s time to respond.
Lu Yanhe: Okay!
He immediately replied to Peng Zhixing: I asked my agent, it’s okay, thank you Brother Xing for inviting me!
Peng Zhixing: Then I will prepare well and try to let more viewers see our interview program.
-
"There are so many people watching Lu Yanhe's performance?!"
Xu Weiyang exclaimed in disbelief when he saw this data online.
Xu Weiyang also participated in today's party. She sang three songs. The average number of viewers was only about 20 million, which was an average level among the performing guests in the entire party.
But Xu Weiyang herself was already very satisfied. She was not a popular singer and could not compare with MX and the others. But she did not expect that she could not even compare with Lu Yanhe.
The agent immediately consoled him: "He's very popular recently. What are you comparing him to now? He scored 657 in the college entrance examination. This score can make him proud for a while. It's just the right time for everyone to be curious and interested in him. But the image of a top student won't last long. Chasing celebrities is not about chasing top students."
Xu Weiyang said, "But he's not only a top student, he's also a very handsome top student. Now I'm going to be slapped in the face."
Previously, when she was recording "Xiaoge Juzhonghui", she had publicly mocked Lu Yanhe's results.
At that time, he was bullied by Yan Liang and Qin Zhibai and lost face.
The agent also remembered this incident.
She said: "It will probably become a black mark on your body that will never be washed off, but it is harmless and not a big deal. At most, you will be ridiculed."
"How embarrassing." Xu Weiyang pouted.
The agent said: "You are still young, why are you afraid of being embarrassed? Things change over time. His singing talent is not as good as yours. If you sing well, you will definitely become famous one day."
"You have so much confidence in me?"
"If I don't have much confidence in you, how can I guide you?" the agent said, "Just sing well and do your own thing."
"Yeah." Xu Weiyang nodded, and after a moment of silence, she continued, "So, should I go apologize to Lu Yanhe?"
"Just apologize when you see me again. I asked you to apologize back then, but you refused. Now it's been over half a year, and you're going to apologize now that I'm famous. It makes you look so snobbish."
"I couldn't bring myself to do that. I didn't think twice when I laughed at him, and I regretted it after the show was over. You know me, I just like to laugh at others."
"I told you to mind your mouth." The agent couldn't help but roll his eyes at her. "What's the point of regretting it later?"
"well."
-
After that night, there was more discussion about Lu Yanhe.
More people contacted Lu Yanhe on social software. Many people got his mobile phone number from someone unknown, sent him messages, and called him. Later, Lu Yanhe stopped answering missed calls.
This evening party has contributed too many topics to the Internet.
These few people alone have created several very hot topics.
The next day, the incident of Li Zhibai being deliberately shot in the eyes with a laser pen by Ma Zhiyuan's fans became the number one trending search.
The incident involved two popular idol artists, and many people were paying attention to it, and the fans of the two people were arguing fiercely.
Ma Zhiyuan's fans defended their idol, saying that there was no evidence to prove whether that person was a fan of Ma Zhiyuan and that it was all just a rumor. They also said that even if he was a fan, he was an extreme individual and could not represent all of Ma Zhiyuan's fans, let alone Ma Zhiyuan.
Of course, Li Zhibai's fans were not happy with this. How could they accept the attitude of putting the blame on someone else when something went wrong? They immediately started arguing.
When fans of idol artists start quarreling, the scene is like a battle between thousands of troops.
Li Zhibai had gotten up late in the morning, and his cell phone rang at nine o'clock. He saw in a daze that it was Zhou Ping'an calling, so he hung up immediately.
Don't want to answer.
He still remembers the grudge from last night.
After a while, Yan Liang came knocking on the door.
"Li Zhibai, Zhou Ping'an asked me to wake you up and ask you to call him back."
"Let him eat shit!" Li Zhibai said irritably.
Yan Liang sighed, opened the door and walked in.
Li Zhibai lay on the bed, hugging the pillow. Looking at his face, one could tell that he was not awake yet.
"It's about the laser pointer. Your fans are fighting with Ma Zhiyuan's fans." Yan Liang said helplessly, "You'd better call back. I checked the situation online, and your two sets of fans are about to fight."
Some fans even went to his Weibo and asked him to control Li Zhibai's fans and stop them from biting people like mad dogs.
Yan Liang was extremely angry. He had suffered an unprovoked disaster.
He controlled his temper and continued to persuade: "This matter has really become a big deal, and your fans are also hurt."
Only then did Li Zhibai impatiently open his eyes and looked at him with an unhappy expression, his eyes still sleepy.
"Call Zhou Ping'an back." Yan Liang emphasized this sentence and turned away.
Li Zhibai sat up unhappily, picked up his cell phone and called Zhou Ping'an.
After a while.
Li Zhibai's voice roared from his room: "You want me to pretend to be friends with Ma Zhiyuan on Weibo and show off my friendship? You want me to appease my fans? Do you think I will agree to that? I don't care how he gets scolded. He makes money for you, not for me! Let him eat shit!"
Li Zhibai roared the last sentence and then fell silent.
Yan Liang covered his face silently.
Sure enough, with a thud, Li Zhibai rushed out of the room.
"Fuck Zhou Ping'an! He actually asked me to appease my fans? If there's something wrong, I'll go and appease him!" Li Zhibai came out with a head of feathers on his head. Seeing that the living room was empty, he immediately rushed to Yan Liang's room and cursed as soon as he entered, "If Zhou Ping'an calls you again, you curse back and make him behave himself!"
Yan Liang took a deep breath.
"Did he want you to suffer this loss?" Yan Liang asked.
"Haha, that's right!" Li Zhibai gritted his teeth, "I think this bastard is going to take over Ma Zhiyuan in all likelihood. Damn it, if I let him succeed, I won't be named Li anymore."
"Whatever your last name is, you can curse Zhou Ping'an and Ma Zhiyuan, but don't vent your anger on Weibo, and don't make any comments or like any posts," Yan Liang warned. "If you get involved, you'll only add fuel to the fire and end up getting yourself into trouble."
"I tell you, I really want to post a Weibo right now and curse that bastard Zhou Ping'an to death!" Li Zhibai was very angry.
After raging for a long time, with Yan Liang the only one in the audience, Li Zhibai finally came to his senses, "Where are the people from Lu Yanhe?"
Yan Liang said, "He had an appointment at noon today, so he left early this morning."
"He has an appointment at noon. Why would he go out so early in the morning?" Li Zhibai asked. "Is he planning to walk to the appointment?"
Yan Liang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and said, "You are so angry now that you are just speaking in anger."
Li Zhibai yawned.
"Calling me so early in the morning, I'd be furious," Li Zhibai said, adding, "Not to mention it's about this shit."
He didn't care why Lu Yanhe went out so early.
"No, I need to sleep a little longer." He went back to his room.
-
At this moment, Lu Yanhe was wandering around the mall, thinking about buying a gift for Chen Siqi.
Actually, it’s quite strange to give gifts at this time, and there’s no legitimate reason. A graduation gift?
It sounds a bit nonsensical, and it's not like girls giving each other a souvenir of parting.
But Lu Yanhe still wanted to buy a gift for Chen Siqi.
It was both a thank you for my temporary help in arranging the music for him and a graduation gift.
Lu Yanhe wandered around for a long time but didn't see anything suitable.
After thinking for a long time, I finally decided to give him a pair of headphones.
Although Chen Siqi herself definitely has it.
This kind of electronic product always needs to be updated.
Lu Yanhe bought Chen Siqi a pair of the latest bone conduction headphones, which cost a little over 1,100 yuan.
After buying the gift, Lu Yanhe breathed a sigh of relief.
After finishing one thing, I was waiting to meet Chen Siqi later.
As a result, as soon as he came out of the store, he was stopped by two girls who looked like students.
"You are Lu Yanhe, right?"
"Can we take a picture with you?"
The two girls looked at Lu Yanhe with starry eyes.
Lu Yanhe was stunned. He was stopped. What else could he do? Of course he could only agree.
When taking a group photo, Lu Yanhe smiled slightly.
The two girls' cheeks flushed slightly and they couldn't help but feel excited.
"Are you shopping alone?" the girl asked.
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "I'll go first."
"Bye-Bye."
Lu Yanhe had just taken two steps when he was stopped again.
Still a young girl.
Lu Yanhe realized that something was wrong.
He usually goes out a lot and is occasionally recognized, but not as frequently as today.
After the fifth group photo, Lu Yanhe didn't dare to be careless anymore. He immediately found a store and bought a mask to put on.
After a while, when Lu Yanhe was getting off the elevator, he heard someone next to him say, "Someone said Lu Yanhe is in this mall now!"
Lu Yanhe was suddenly startled and subconsciously lowered his head.
Fortunately, the person who spoke did not seem to realize that Lu Yanhe was right next to her and did not notice him.
Lu Yanhe reached the first floor, quickly walked towards the nearest door, and left the mall.
Lu Yanhe went straight to a bookstore in front.
Nowadays, many bookstores adopt the model of selling books and coffee.
At ten o'clock in the morning, there were not many people walking around the business district.
This is especially true for bookstores.
After Lu Yanhe entered, he went straight to the bookshelf.
He took off his mask only when he was behind the bookshelf.
In such hot weather, I started sweating after wearing a mask for a while.
Very uncomfortable.
Lu Yanhe breathed a sigh of relief, gradually calmed himself down, and looked up to find a book on the bookshelf.
The last time he'd been to a bookstore was when he'd been with Li Pengfei. Bookstores were becoming increasingly rare, and they were becoming more refined and bourgeois. Books had become a gimmick and a source of ambiance, while the main focus was on drinks and snacks. Lu Yanhe browsed around, picked out two books, paid for them, ordered a cup of coffee, and found a corner to sit down.
He turned his back to the door and faced the front corner so that no one could see his face.
Among the books I bought today, one is another novel written by Nian Jin, the author of "Eight Difficulties", which is also a fantasy novel called "The Statue of Guanyin".
Lu Yanhe read the introduction, which read, "On his eighteenth birthday, he looked up at the sky and saw a gigantic statue of Guanyin appear before him. Guanyin's eyes were originally closed, but when he looked up, they slowly opened. The streets were bustling with traffic and the sound of people rubbing shoulders with each other, a bustling and crowded scene. But the moment Guanyin opened her mouth, the entire world lost its color and sound, leaving only her majestic voice, solemn and simple, shouting: Wukong."
At first glance, it is a new spin-off novel of "Journey to the West".
In this world, "Journey to the West" is still one of the four great classics and a classic in everyone's heart.
Although there is no Liu Xiaolingtong here, there is the Sun Wukong in the minds of countless people.
It’s just that the actor who played the Monkey King died young, unlike Teacher Liu, who got into many scandals in his old age and seemed to be losing his reputation in his later years.
Lu Yanhe thought it would be a good idea to read more novels. Every novel is a different story, and every different story is a different experience and a different feeling.
Lu Yanhe felt that his past was too unremarkable, just like the past of an ordinary person.
At this time, the cell phone rang.
It was a message from Chen Siqi: What time will we meet later?
Lu Yanhe glanced at the time and it was already ten forty.
He said: "Are you out yet? I'm fine, I'm nearby. When you get there, tell me and I'll come over."
Chen Siqi: Okay.
…
"What did Ma Zhiyuan do wrong in this matter?!" There were two girls sitting at a table not far away. Although one of the girls spoke in a low voice, her words could still reach Lu Yanhe's ears.
When Lu Yanhe heard the familiar name, his attention was immediately drawn to it.
Of course, secretly eavesdropping is not a good habit, but it is harmless to listen occasionally.
Girl B seemed to disagree with Girl A and said seriously, "Ma Zhiyuan wasn't directly at fault, but since it's been confirmed that the fan was indeed his and not a fake, shouldn't Ma Zhiyuan speak out now? He's an idol, and the relationship between idols and fans is inseparable. He can't control what his fans do, but shouldn't he show the right attitude?"
"It's not his fault, so why did he express this? Li Zhibai's fans are biting people like mad dogs. Has Li Zhibai come out to express his position?"
…
Lu Yanhe silently turned his body to the side.
Sitting in this corner reading a book, I can hear Ma Zhiyuan and Li Zhibai. It seems that what happened last night was a big deal.
Many people are paying attention to it.
Lu Yanhe didn't read the news online and didn't know that their fans were already arguing with each other.
Regardless of who is right or wrong in this matter, Lu Yanhe has already had his own inclination towards the parties involved, and of course he will not change his attitude because of this incident.
Not to mention, in Lu Yanhe's opinion, Ma Zhiyuan might not be at fault in this matter, but Li Zhibai was indeed the victim.
Lu Yanhe felt that the girl was right. No matter what, Ma Zhiyuan should stand up and express his opinion.
He listened silently, holding the book in his hand, pretending to read, but in fact he didn't read a single word.
…
Girl A: "I don't understand why you all want to link fans' behavior to idols. It's not something they can control."
"It's not linked, but different people handle the same thing differently." Girl B was also stubborn and unmoved, continuing to express her point of view. "If it were me, after this happened, I would speak out to discipline my fans to stop doing things that hurt others, instead of being a coward and pretending that this thing didn't happen and had nothing to do with me."
"This matter has nothing to do with him."
"Well, so this is the difference in our values." Girl B said firmly.
Girl A was a little exasperated: "Then you should find someone who shares your values as a friend."
After saying that, Girl A got up and left angrily.
Just go.
Lu Yanhe was surprised and astonished at the same time.
A pair of friends had a quarrel over such a thing and their relationship broke down like this?
Is friendship really so fragile? It can capsize at any moment.
-
However, the conversation he heard touched him a little.
What kind of relationship should there be between idols and fans?
What would he do if his fans did such extreme behavior?
After thinking carefully, Lu Yanhe felt that he would do the same as girl B said. No matter whether this matter was related to him or not, he could not ignore it. Attitude is a very important thing.
Some people may say that idols cannot control the behavior of fans, which is true, but the attitude of idols can affect many things.
He thought silently for a while, and at 11:37, Chen Siqi sent him a message: I'm almost there.
Lu Yanhe came to his senses and set off immediately.
-
This is a business district, but the restaurant is not inside the shopping mall, but in an old residential area opposite the shopping mall.
There is a restaurant here that serves local dishes, which was recommended to Lu Yanhe by Chen Siqi.
Lu Yanhe booked a table here.
The best thing about this place is the cubicles.
Two people can't sit in a private room, but four people can sit in a small compartment.
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi arrived almost at the same time.
Chen Siqi was dressed very dazzlingly today and even put on some makeup.
"Wow." Lu Yanhe praised in surprise as he opened his mouth.
Chen Siqi rolled her eyes at him: "Don't be surprised by something you don't see often."
"It's rare indeed. I don't think I've ever seen you wearing makeup."
"Nonsense, it melted on my birthday."
"Oh, yes."
Chen Siqi: "Congratulations! You got into Zhenhua University as you wished."
Lu Yanhe was stunned, his eyes widening: "How did you know I applied to Zhenhua?"
Chen Siqi curled her lips slightly, unable to suppress a smug smile. "Haven't you noticed that you mention Zhenhua more often than Yuming? I guessed that you must like Zhenhua a little more."
Lu Yanhe really didn't notice this habit of his.
"You noticed all this."
"How does it feel to become a legend?" Chen Siqi asked.
Lu Yanhe: "I don't really feel anything. I'm just happy I did well on the test."
"Just keep pretending." Chen Siqi didn't believe Lu Yanhe at all. "Who knows, he might be hiding from people, crying and laughing at the same time."
Lu Yanhe recalled the half hour after he received Liu Qin's call in the rehearsal room.
"...How is that possible?" Lu Yanhe denied.
Chen Siqi looked as if she had seen through him long ago.
Lu Yanhe quickly changed the subject, picked up the paper bag containing the headphones, and handed it to Chen Siqi.
"This gift is for you. Thank you for arranging music for me." Lu Yanhe said, "I was able to keep my career alive in the past year, all thanks to your help in arranging music."
Chen Siqi took it with some surprise.
"I don't have any gifts for you."
Lu Yanhe laughed: "It's okay."
Chen Siqi pursed her lips.
At this time, the waiter came over with the menu, "Would you like to order now?"
"Order." Lu Yanhe took the menu and handed it to Chen Siqi. "What do you want to eat?"
Chen Siqi looked at the menu, listed a few dishes quickly, and handed the menu back without any politeness.
The waiter looked at the ambiguous expressions of a couple in love.
He didn't know Lu Yanhe and just thought they were a student couple.
One is very handsome, the other is very beautiful, they are a perfect match.
Chen Siqi said, "The waiter must have mistaken us for a couple."
Lu Yanhe's heart skipped a beat.
He didn't respond for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Instead, Chen Siqi looked at him suspiciously.
"What are you staring at?"
Lu Yanhe shook his head and denied it: "No."
He put his hands under the table and scratched his knees, his palms were sweaty.
"You——" Lu Yanhe hesitated and wanted to hint at it.
Chen Siqi suddenly spoke up, "But that's normal. It's normal for others to misunderstand me when a young and beautiful girl like me goes out to eat with you alone."
When it comes to confidence, Chen Siqi is always far ahead.
Some people may not like her pride, but Lu Yanhe has always liked it.
He liked to see Chen Siqi's proud, confident and arrogant look on her face.
Lu Yanhe laughed.
"I'm going to Jiangguang University." Chen Siqi suddenly said.
This sentence came unexpectedly, catching Lu Yanhe off guard.
"ah?"
"Jiang Guang." Chen Siqi emphasized, "I don't want to stay in Yuming."
Lu Yanhe was stunned.
"I've always wanted to leave home, go somewhere far away, get away from Liu Wei'an, and try to live on my own," Chen Siqi said. "Going to college is my biggest opportunity. They wouldn't let me study abroad. When I wanted to apply to Jiangguang University, they refused, insisting on keeping me in Yuming. We argued almost every day."
"You...are going to Jiangguang University. Does that mean you won't be back to Yuming except during the winter and summer holidays?"
"Yeah." Chen Siqi nodded, "I don't even want to come back during the winter and summer holidays."
At this moment, Lu Yanhe felt inexplicably blocked, and there were some things he wanted to say but couldn't say them.
"Okay, then we won't see each other very often from now on." Lu Yanhe lowered his eyes.
"This is the price I must pay." Chen Siqi looked into Lu Yanhe's eyes. "I must leave Yuming, otherwise I will be suppressed by Liu Wei'an for the rest of my life and I will never be able to turn over a new leaf."
"Yeah, I understand." Lu Yanhe nodded.
"You'll be getting busier and busier in the future, so how will you have time to meet?" Chen Siqi suddenly said with a smile, "Studying and being an artist at the same time, you must be extremely busy every day, never having time to rest."
"That's right." Lu Yanhe smiled again. "No matter what, I have to congratulate you on successfully realizing your wish."
Chen Siqi: "Not yet. I won't be sure until I receive the acceptance letter."
"Are you sure?"
"Almost." Chen Siqi nodded, "It should be possible."
"That's good."
Lu Yanhe had a smile on his face, but his mood was sinking uncontrollably.
He could only cheer himself up and chat and laugh with Chen Siqi.
After lunch, Chen Siqi glanced at him and asked, "Are you free this afternoon?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Come watch a movie with me again." Chen Siqi said.
"Okay, what movie do you want to watch?" Lu Yanhe took out his cell phone and prepared to buy tickets.
Chen Siqi: "It's all right. You can watch whatever you want."
Lu Yanhe: "I don't know what movies are coming out recently."
"Just pick one."
Chen Siqi chuckled at him, "Anyway, this is the first movie we're going to watch together, so you better choose it carefully. If it's not good, you won't remember it ten years later."
When Lu Yanhe heard "Part One" and "Ten Years Later", he was touched and couldn't help but think more about it, but he didn't know whether Chen Siqi did it intentionally or unintentionally.
He looked at Chen Siqi, and Chen Siqi also looked at her.
"Why are you looking at me? Picking a movie." Chen Siqi said with a smile.
