Chapter 355 The tip of the needle versus the awn of wheat
"Then I'll go back first."
As if she had made up her mind, the hesitation on her face subsided. Pei Zhuxuan shook her head slightly and smoothed the hair on her left temple. She waved her hand to Chi Jingyuan with a gentle smile, and saw that the other party also smiled.
After nodding and waving his hands, he took one last look at him, turned around and walked towards the red velvet dormitory area.
She still walked with her hip twisting posture, which looked very distinctive and a bit provocative from behind. But she walked very fast, as if something scary was chasing her from behind, and in a blink of an eye she walked out and turned around the street.
He suddenly disappeared from Chi Jingyuan's sight.
"…………"
Seeing Pei Zhuxuan's back disappear from sight, Chi Jingyuan showed a faint smile and shook his head gently.
Although Pei Zhuxuan didn't finish what she just said, Chi Jingyuan also guessed what she wanted to ask.
I just want to ask him, who is not dating now, how things are going with Jung Soo-jung now, etc.
There is no need to elaborate on the purpose of asking such a question, it is obvious.
But in the middle of speaking, Pei Zhuhyun might have considered other things, so she suppressed the rest of her words.
Chi Jingyuan was not surprised. She had obviously calmed down from the turbulent emotions at night and the sweet atmosphere just now. Naturally, she had to consider many more realistic things when walking from dreams to reality.
For example, whether Chi Jingyuan has a girlfriend, whether he is in a relationship, how he feels about her, whether he has a crush on her, whether he really likes her, etc.
What's more important is that her group Red Velvet is still such a jerk. It's a bit irresponsible for her to think about dating after only three or four months of debut, let alone the fact that she's still the leader.
I have worked hard for so many years to debut, not just to go to the center of the earth as soon as I debut and then just ignore everything and go find a man.
Bae Zhuhyun is not a love brain, so she naturally has more concerns after calming down. For her, the most important thing now is to restore the hanging career and get the team on the right track.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Chi Jingyuan could probably understand some of her thoughts. After being together for so long, he could see that Pei Zhuxuan had a strong career ambition and self-esteem.
And, speaking of likes...
There is indeed a good impression, but Chi Jingyuan's good impression of Pei Zhuxuan is obviously not as strong and enthusiastic as others' good impression of him.
But for Chi Jingyuan, it is really rare to have a good impression.
As for whether it will continue to sublimate in the future, I can't say for sure.
He pursed his lips and looked at the alley where no one could be seen at all. Thinking of what happened just now, he said silently in his heart:
fine.
After standing there for two minutes, Chi Jingyuan thought for a while and did not call Park Jae-hyun and others to drive over. Instead, he took one last look in the direction of the red velvet dormitory, tightened his collar, turned around and walked back.
I walked to the place where the two of them were hugging each other in the park, looked at the moon in the sky, took a selfie at an angle, and then sent it to Bae Zhuhyun. Then I smiled, put away my phone and walked out of the park, sat down and waited by the roadside.
The nanny car's engine soon roared to life, and soon the park returned to the deserted feeling of late night.
It was quiet when she opened the dormitory door. The room was full of darkness and she could only hear the faint sound of breathing. Pei Zhuxuan used the light of her mobile phone to shine, touched the darkness and changed her shoes. She tiptoed to the bathroom, quickly turned on the faucet, and connected her hands to take the drink.
She covered her face with a handful of water. The cool ice water sobered up her feverish head.
After holding it for a while, Pei Zhuhyun took a long breath, raised her head and looked at herself in the mirror.
"Please illuminate me brightly..."
"Is it possible...this...isn't a misunderstanding?"
Chi Jingyuan's voice lingered in her ears and couldn't be shaken off. The hugs and kisses that were so emotional in the park just now made her body feel hot in retrospect.
She stretched out her hands to cover both sides of her cheeks, and rubbed them back and forth twice, feeling the warmth and smoothness of her cheeks. She looked at herself in the mirror and thought of something happy, "Pfft"
A laugh broke out.
The water-stained face is still red, the fluff on the cheeks and the water on the tip of the nose, combined with the apple-like face and white teeth, are like delicate flowers blooming. The whole person looks exceptionally beautiful, with a...
Two points of cuteness.
Just smiling, some complicated thoughts and more realistic things also appeared in her mind. Thinking of those things that had to be considered, her smile slowly faded, and the brilliance that bloomed in her eyes just now also dimmed.
Quite a few.
Not to mention anything else, she had seen Chi Jingyuan and Zheng Xiujing together more than once or twice. She had only seen them secretly at the family concert some time ago. How long had it been since then?
Coupled with the current state of the group and the huge gap between the two, all kinds of disturbing thoughts jumped out of their control.
well……
Just when she was feeling a little gloomy, the mobile phone next to her suddenly rang, which was very harsh in the extremely quiet dormitory. Pei Zhuxuan was frightened to death and trembled all over. She hurriedly picked up the mobile phone and quickly dialed the
Mute.
Someone still sent a message so late. She frowned and opened it to take a look. Her eyebrows instantly relaxed, and her face that had been complicated and gloomy a few seconds ago suddenly burst into laughter.
I saw Chi Jingyuan sent a selfie. In the photo, he was standing in the park where the two were hugging each other, with his back to the moon, leaning his body to the left, winking and making gestures with his head.
Scissorhands.
It's really rare to see Chi Jingyuan like this, and Pei Zhuhyun found it very strange.
And she could also understand the meaning of the other person's selfie. The place where Chi Jingyuan stood and what happened here were also very memorable to her.
It’s so hard that he even went back to take a photo. It’s really annoying.
She blinked and stared at the photos on her phone for a long time. Her eyes lost focus as she looked at them. She didn't wake up until the screen turned black. She saved the photos with her lips raised and put the phone aside.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then opened them and looked at the mirror in front of her again. She pursed her lips in the mirror, and her dark pupils were filled with a touch of expectation and determination.
…
It was already late at night when Chi Jingyuan returned to the dormitory, and he was the only one in the entire apartment. It seemed empty. After washing, he lay on the bed and fell asleep in a few seconds. He got up early the next morning to catch up.
Went to work on the set.
And just when Chi Jingyuan was nervously filming on the crew and EXO also got on the plane to return to the peninsula, the discussion about yesterday's MAMA has gradually fermented. The grand event that occupied the front row of hot searches just after the award ceremony last night has not disappeared.
Instead, it got worse.
However, this year's MAMA is indeed full of gimmicks. In addition to the grand prize, there are several awards that have aroused some discussion.
There is no dispute that the best boy group goes to EXO. Even though the second half of the year was unfavorable, the comeback in the middle of the year was extremely successful and opened up a big gap with other boy groups. Basically, other boy groups that have returned this year have
There's nothing competitive about it.
But there is a big debate about the best girl group. Girls' Generation and 2NE1 were clearly ahead in the voting, but in the end it was awarded to sistar, which made many sone and black jack who had been voting very hard very disappointed.
Dissatisfied and angrily denounced the organizer's behind-the-scenes operations.
Black Jack is the fan name of 2NE1, which means black jack. It is the biggest in the card game blackjack, and it also corresponds to the group name of 2NE1.
The same is true for the Newcomer Award. During the voting in November, the sudden and rapid increase in the number of votes for the winner has already made fans of Got7 and other candidate groups very dissatisfied, and they are still criticizing them non-stop to this day.
IU, on the other hand, was ridiculed as a "on-the-spot award." The award she was awarded yesterday has never appeared in previous awards, and it is estimated that it will not be issued again next year. Only this award will be exclusive to IU.
An insider broke the news on the Internet, saying that the organizer originally hinted that IU would be very likely to win the grand prize, but after she came, the grand prize was finally divided between EXO and Taeyang. In order to make up for and comfort Li Ji Eun, the organizer immediately
I just created a prize for her. Anyway, there are so many trophies. I heard that even the name was thought up on the spot.
It is said that IU herself felt that this award was a joke. After returning home, she was very angry about it and even got angry with people around her.
What the whistleblower said was as vivid as seeing it with his own eyes, but how true it is is unknown. However, this statement attracted a lot of attention, and the rumor spread quickly.
And many anti-fans who don't like IU, as well as many fans of SJ, happily held a conference for her online, and made all kinds of sarcastic and sarcastic messages, which was as lively as the Chinese New Year.
In addition to these and the many disputes over the ownership of the final grand award, the one that caused a stir and the most discussion was G-Dragon's performance on the MAMA stage where he directly changed the words of the rap to diss by the organizer.
Although MAMA is very famous, the organizer has always had a bad reputation in terms of awards. Every time it is held, there are rumors of weird awards and secret manipulation. But this time G-Dragon directly exposed it and used rap on the stage.
It is natural to imagine the extremely high degree of discussion brought about by singing it.
The public opinion at the beginning was all directed at the organizer Mnet. After all, they have a bad reputation, and even passers-by couldn't help but curse.
But somehow the trend of scolding changed. Although G-Dragon's words were actually scolding the organizer for sharing the pork, and responding to those who asked him to participate in "Show Me the Money".
But some people started to think divergently.
Since we are talking about 'dividing the pork', it naturally means that we are dissatisfied with the awarding of awards. Naturally, the biggest gain of this MAMA is to win two awards: Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and the very valuable award of Best Boy Group.
And a consolation prize for EXO.
After this, many people felt that G-Dragon was hinting or even directly stating that EXO was sharing the pork by winning the award. It was the organizer who gave them the award that did not originally belong to them.
As soon as he said this, the heat started to rise instantly. Fans on both sides immediately started arguing with each other, and many passers-by and anti-fans who were watching the excitement were also fanning the flames.
The VIP and Ariel groups are very large in size. They are two of the largest and most powerful fan groups among boy bands. At first, they were arguing with each other in a lively manner, but as they talked, they became more and more angry.
The bigger the situation, the more they started scolding each other online:
"GD is a senior who debuted in 2006. Even if it is diss, it is diss, and criticism is criticism. EXO is a newcomer who has been debuting for more than two years. Just listen honestly. And with the current situation of EXO, why?
Can I win two big prizes?"
"It's so funny. Junior high school students nowadays are so brainless. When Big Bang became popular in Asia, EXO was still doing homework. Wasn't it just because a song got lucky and became famous last year? Even now, in terms of popularity, EXO can't even lift shoes for us.
If you don’t deserve it, just listen to the education, why is there so much nonsense?”
"Fuck you seniors from Xiba, are you still awake after having sex with Ma Long? Aren't they both idols? It's his turn to talk and pretend to be whatever he says? If only he had debuted early and had a high ranking.
If it’s a diss, will Big Bang kneel down to TVXQ?”
"Why do we, XO, win the Grand Prize? Go and look at the sales rankings for yourself. How many albums do you guys have to put together to be as good as XO? One song became a hit? Isn't Big Bang also a hit with the song "Lie"?
At that time, they were also called the 'ugliest boy band' in history. Have you forgotten? Now they are here to pretend?"
"Moreover, Big Bang and G-Dragon have not returned at all this year and are not among the candidates. Taeyang has already won a song of the year. Why does he have any dissatisfaction and come to diss us XO?"
"It's so funny, what is EXO like now? They quit three times in a row, and their fans have lost a lot of money. This comeback is just a digital single, and even the album company won't send it to them. You can still dance like this on the Internet until now."
Yes? Ariel is really good at counterattack output, no wonder she is so annoying. How long has it been since then? EXO can actually compete with Big Bang. Are they on the same level? Do you know what a TOP group is?"
"I don't know anything else. I only know that when you go out at night, you will be hit by Jiang Dacheng's car, and the police will determine that you were already hanging (coffin) (shaking hands) (laughing) before being hit."
As a senior Aili, Li Youna looked at the screen angrily and responded excitedly to the clamoring VIPs and anti-fans in the forum. Her fingers were tapping quickly on the keyboard, leaving a burst of afterimages, all kinds of weird comments and angry swear words.
He appeared in succession and defeated a VIP who was scolding her.
Seeing that the other party was speechless after seeing what happened to Dacheng, he just dived and pretended to be dead. Li Youna breathed out refreshed and took a drink of water. When she was about to continue looking for the next opponent, she suddenly saw the time and her expression changed.
I quickly opened another web page.
Sure enough, the MV and sound source of EXO's winter single "Let It Be", which is going to be released today, were all released by SM a few minutes ago.
After EXO performed "Let It Be" at MAMA yesterday, it immediately caused an uproar among the fans. Whether it was the gorgeous stage effects, the extremely pleasant melody and the stage performance of several lead singers, they fell into
In great excitement.
Especially the lyrics of this song, at a time when EXO has suffered continuous setbacks and the fan base is a little confused and at a loss, the meaning of the lyrics is really very appropriate and appropriate.
After watching it, many fans felt that every word of this song was written into their psychology, as if this song was written specifically for them.
Very touched.
In such a special time period, "Let It Be" instantly became the favorite of many Ellie.
It's just that the sound source and MV have not been released, so many people can only watch the replays online. When it was released today, there were naturally a lot of fans standing by the computer, and Li Youna was one of them.
After refreshing the page, she quickly clicked in, turned up the volume a little louder, and stared at the black screen and read carefully:
"You'll get used to it, again."
"It's like catching a cold."
At the beginning, the familiar melody appeared again. At the beginning of the MV, Chi Jingyuan sat up from the bed in a dark room, staring blankly at the window in front of him with his back to the camera. The window was completely covered by airtight curtains.
Only a faint light could be revealed from the gap.
He put his hands on the bed and silently looked at the glimmer of light. No need to say anything, a heavy feeling suddenly hit his face.
"The swarming gray emotions passed me by countless times."
"You still have to be patient."
The scene turned, and on a snowy street, Jin Junmian, wearing a windbreaker, turned back and forth at a loss, not knowing where to go next.
Under the soft but low melody, the ethereal and emotional singing, the scenes in the MV change scene by scene.
Park Chanyeol stood downstairs, looking up at the densely packed pigeon towers that towered into the clouds and covered the sky. He felt pressure coming from all directions.
Wu Shixun quickly went down the stairs, but the downward extension of his head seemed endless. No matter how fast he ran, he seemed to be standing still.
One by one, close-ups of the members appear in the MV, and every picture conveys a bleak and negative feeling, making people feel a sense of heaviness and pressure in their hearts.
But during the second chorus, the melody and key gradually increased.
"In the gray sky, there must be a brighter light."
"When the dark clouds disperse, a dazzling light shines."
At this time, the first scene of the MV appeared on the screen again. At this time, Chi Jingyuan seemed to have struggled and thought, and finally made a decision. He stood up lightly, walked to the window, hesitated for a second, and then
He violently opened the curtains with both hands, and in the next second, brilliant light shone directly in from the outside, dyeing the entire room and his face with a dazzling golden color.
And then, all the members who seemed at a loss just now and didn't know where to go all found a way out of the difficulties.
Jin Junmian chose an intersection and ran firmly in one direction.
Park Chanyeol reached the top floor of the building step by step, looking down into the distance.
Wu Shixun finally walked out of the endless stairs and ran to the street, suddenly enlightened.
The scene switched quickly, and each member appeared on the road. There was light snow in the sky, and the sky was dark and gloomy. It seemed like it was night. They were running on the street in the night light. Their suits, windbreakers, and hair were also stained.
Lots of snowflakes.
It gives people the feeling of walking in the dark, covered with stars and the moon.
As the camera changed and everyone ran and ran, everyone finally gathered together and arrived on the beach at night.
After standing in the darkness for two seconds, the sky suddenly brightened up. In the deep night sky, a red burning sun bloomed from the sky, rising little by little. At this moment, all the haze and dimness disappeared.
It was swept away by the dazzling sunlight that was omnipresent and piercing the sky.
The angle of view is widened, and the nine members of EXO are standing in a row on the beach. They are either covering their eyes with their hands, pumping their fists excitedly, putting their hands in their pockets, or putting their hands to their mouths like trumpets to shout.
What.
"wu~~wu~~wu~~"
At this time, the melody also came to the harmony of the last section of "Let It Be". In the perfect acapella harmony performed by Ji Kyung-won and Do Kyung-soo, the camera gradually zoomed out, showing the entire scene.
The scene freezes when the heaven, earth and nine people are all enveloped.
Seeing the nine members of EXO standing side by side on the screen, walking out of the darkness and bathing in the sun on the beach, Li Youna minimized the web page to the desktop with trembling hands.
The last scene of EXO's first variety show after their debut, "EXO Showtime", was talked about by countless fans. The screenshot of the twelve members watching the sunrise on the beach was surprisingly her screensaver.
She kept switching and comparing the two.
Same place, same sun, just different clothes and different people.
But at least they are still there and the sun still comes out.
Looking at the scene in front of her, indescribable emotions surged into her heart, making Li Youna unable to trust herself and burst into tears.
