Chasing Tides

Chapter 21



Back at the dormitory, the teenagers shouted hungry, Gu Yankai and Gao Ming went back to eat barbecue, Wang Bingyang wanted to eat instant noodles and was afraid of fat. When he unpacked, he gritted his teeth and couldn’t bear to look directly at the surging heat.

Ning Lan just happened to be in the kitchen, holding down his hand and saying, “I’ll cook noodles, take a portion.”

Lu Xiaochuan, who came to the kitchen for food, raised his hand: “Bring me one too.”

The noodles were bought by Ning Lan before, and they were placed upright in the corner of the refrigerator so that they did not take up much space, so the fate of being thrown away was avoided. After the water is boiled, first stir-fry the greens. The pan starts to fry the eggs and bacon. The vegetables are finished with the bottom strips. The three noodle bowls are all clear and the soup is added with soy sauce. The cooked noodles are removed and covered with vegetables. .

The two were really hungry. A bowl of noodles and chopsticks reached the end. Wang Bingyang was still overwhelmed after eating, boasting that the Ninglan craftsmanship had passed the five-star hotel chef.

“On ordinary Yangchun noodles, is there such an exaggeration?” Ning Lan laughed.

Lu Xiaochuan put his chopsticks down after eating, and thumbs up: “It’s really delicious.”

When Sui Yue came out of the room, Ning Lan was packing up the empty bowl.

He hadn’t figured out what kind of state he would face Sui Yang in the next step, squeezed the bowl edge nervously and asked him, “Do you want to eat?”

Sui Yan shook her head and said no, pushed a card in front of him: “It is transferred to your account, and the rest is on the card with the password 990318.”

Ning Lan glanced around first to make sure that no one was there, then lowered the bowl, took the card, and set the card number with her eyes down, not to mention what to say.

Sui Yan saw that he kept talking and was wrong, and asked: “Did you remember the password? Do you want to take a pen and paper …”

“Remember,” Ning Lan said quickly, “thank you.”

In this embarrassing and quiet atmosphere, Sui Yue was also a little uncomfortable, and said “rest early” and turned back to the room.

Ning Lan spent the whole night thinking about whether to apply for transfer to the original room. The next morning when I came to the company, I heard that yesterday, the picture of Gu Yankai staring at him on the stage was posted to Weibo, which caused a big stir among the fans, and even caused a circle to let others read the joke. Comments were severely polarized. Half of them felt that Ning Lan was pushed out, and the other half were convinced that Ning Lan must have done something bad before Gu Xikai got so angry.

In the eyes of fans, Gu Yankai is a child who has not grown up. She is too well protected by her parents, has not suffered hardships, and has no bad eyes in a rich life. The frankness from the inside is not fake. . His external personality is his own, with almost no decorative elements, so it is easy to be accepted and liked by everyone. With the popularity of AOW, when he first debuted, those comments that said he had a high family background gradually disappeared. Many fans are attracted by his lively and cheerful personality and clear and beautiful voice.

Therefore, the reason Gu Gukai stepped on Ning Lan was totally tenable.

However, Ning Lan’s handful of fans and passers-by did not buy it–the young master is so angry that everyone in the court dared to roll his eyes at the brothers in the same group. In private, I don’t know how to use bullying!

Soon, some fans turned out the previous rounds of AOW to find out the details, and found that Gu Yankai never ignored Ning Lan. On several occasions, Ning Lan was sneered and looked disdainful. Ning Lan’s Wei Fan took these out as evidence of their bullies being bullied. Gu Yankai’s fans turned against each other and said that if it wasn’t for your family’s bubble blacks, they would like to blame the camera, would our furniture be so disgusted ?

Ning Lan feels very wronged. He can swear by God that he has never scrambled for anyone’s shot.

When he opened Weibo, he saw a long list of @messages, which were mixed in the comments of scolding. There were all sorts of things to say, and occasionally a few stood out to maintain order and said, “Noisy, no steaming.” No one talks at all.

The host of SuperTalk is the manager of the AOW support team. It took a long time to suppress the conflict after deleting the posts and hand cramps. It is said that the official fan base is still noisy. Gu Yankai was so angry that he couldn’t eat breakfast. He closed the door for a morning, and Ning Lan didn’t take it to heart. He heard from An Lin that because of this incident, Gu Yankai dropped the powder and he increased the powder. He couldn’t sit still.

How to say that Gu Yankai is now the brother of his master, is this not considered …

Ning Lan was standing at the door and was about to knock on the door. Sui Yue came out of it, and saw that he was stunned first, then turned over and carried the door. Ning Lan tried to bypass him and was stopped by him: “What are you doing?”

“Apologize.” Ning Lan said briefly.

Seeing him look indifferent, Sui Yun didn’t seem to be going in for trouble, thinking about it and saying, “He plays with a child’s temper, ignore him.”

Ning Lan was so relieved in her heart, but she dared not reveal it. Who made the child in front of him promoted to his master, and he planned to return to the original room to make it easier to serve the master.

Based on this, even if he knelt down to Gu Yankai now, he could not hesitate to bend his knees and cry to his father.

“Is the money back?” Sui Su asked.

“Ah? … returned.” Ning Lan was a little panicked by this sudden concern.

Last night, he called boss Bo Liu over the amount of the account. This was the first time he had contacted the creditor. However, he did not feel relaxed after paying it back, but he became heavier.

The debt is still owed, but the debtor has merged from a pile into one, and this person can’t hide from looking up and down.

He didn’t know whether his choice was right or wrong, and now he felt ridiculous in retrospect.

Sui Yang, contrary to him, calmly seemed to be out of the situation and nodded: “Well, today’s team must get the materials, not too far away from the team.”

In the evening, An Lin directly carried the camera to the AOW dormitory, and hurriedly yelled, “Hurry up, I have to go back and cut the film after the filming, and I will broadcast it tomorrow.”

Ning Lan asked as she packed her things, “Isn’t it already cut this week?”

An Lin lamented: “It’s not your two ancestors doing things on the stage, this group of tents will be temporarily replaced by the dormitory daily, and you will be whitewashed.”

Sitting on the sofa, Gu Yankai rolled his eyes when he heard the words, and the anger came up again: “Which white wash? No white wash! Let them talk!”

Sui Yan frowned and continued to work **** his brother’s ideological work. Ning Lan didn’t hesitate to listen, anyway, no matter what he was going to play, he would fully cooperate.

After 15 minutes, the filming started, starting with a visit to each room, in order to record the warm and friendly brotherhood. The camera came to the dormitory where the captain was. Ning Lan hugged a strawberry pillow and said it was sent by a fan. He accompany him to sleep every night and picked up the plaster on the bed and said it was given by the captain.

“Don’t look at him hanging his face all day, it’s actually a big warm man.” The captain without bragging will never go wrong.

Then the camera gave Sui Kun to the upper bunk. Ning Lan said that the captain had a unique skill to get out of bed. Sui Jun jumped out of the upper bunk with his long legs extended. Gu Jikai also leapt from the low bed. Hold the venue and applaud the brothers. In the end, Gu Yankai shared a bag of snacks, including Ning Lan, with the housemates according to An Lin’s instructions, and the two talked a little embarrassingly before revealing the fake PART.

That night happened to be a variety show recorded by AOW in early June. Anlin stayed for a while and took seven people to watch TV together.

The TV station’s show is famous for its post-editing. One of the segments where Lu Xiaochuan and Fang Yu competed for the same game clue box was dragged in for a minute and saw Lu Xiaochuan press Fang Yu under his body. Fang Yu, who came to the dormitory to cooperate with the filming, is all black, so don’t start sulking.

The one-and-a-half hour program, Ning Lan’s footage was the least expected, and only got a few close-ups when Lu Xiaochuan improvised RAP.

After the broadcast, An Lin was sent downstairs, and she pulled Ning Lan aside alone, saying, “The fans do n’t know the truth, but we all know that it is not your fault. Sister Zhang asked me to tell you, Xiao Kai, a child Temper, don’t see him in general. “

Ning Lan nodded nicely and said yes.

An Lin brought the words to her, holding the camera to leave, thinking about coming back again, could not help but say, “In the future, you have to learn to come and show yourself as much as possible, not to make you do things like Yan Kai … … Although it will be edited in the later period, but you just stand behind to make the background board, or you will have no chance, you forgot what you taught during the training? “

Ning Lan shook his head. He did not forget, but he did not have the qualifications and position to fight for the camera.

Nothing before, no more now.

The following day morning bell twilight, the same.

AOW’s first single has passed the promotional period, and there were almost no collective trips in early August. Gao Ming picked up a dance program and went to the field to record every week. Lu Xiaochuan has been quiet like a chicken since ShowCase for a while, and has recently reverted to the old situation. From occasional no-night stay to invisible figures, like Fang Yu, the dragon is gone. At the end, Little Master Gu Minkai found new fun, and he took the guitar to the teacher every day to learn; Sui Min was going to join the group and began to study the script.

After daily training, Ning Lan played with Wang Bingyang. Wang Bingyang got a set of game consoles. Two people squatted in the living room and played. The children were full of vitality, and they were not tired from playing all night. Ning Lan also loved to play. Unfortunately, his spirit was not younger than a dozen. He almost fell asleep on the sofa, and was dragged by Wang Bingyang to continue supporting his eyes.

At midnight that day, Ning Lan heard someone lower his voice and said, “He’s sleepy, let him sleep.”

He was really sleepy, and he couldn’t open his eyes when he practiced dancing to half death during the day. When he was lifted up and stumbled to the room, his head rested on the shoulder of the person who helped him. He only found out that this person was not Wang Bingyang, and the child was not so tall.

He was put on the bed, and the person knew to drag his back to avoid planting his head.

Ning Lan’s eyeballs rolled under the eyelids, and it seemed that a contour could be seen in front of him, and then he turned around and lost sight of it again.

Sui Yue covered him with a blanket and was about to get up straight. Ning Lan’s arm suddenly stretched out and grabbed his hand to be taken back.

Sui Yan looked at those eyes and opened his eyes, and his black eyes met his own.

These days, as usual, he is doing his job well and being the captain of AOW, but he knows he is hiding. Pretend to study the script need to be quiet, avoid being in the same room with Ning Lan, or even go to bed every morning and try not to face Ning Lan alone.

Every time he thought, he thought he might have been crazy that day, and he actually blurted out such words.

Even more frightening is that he does not feel regret, even if he knows that his behavior is not only a hero, but also very naive.

Sui Yue actually noticed that Ning Lan’s attitude towards him also changed. For example, at this moment, Ning Lan raised his mouth in the dream-like wake, bent a shallow arc, his thumb climbed up his ring finger, and gently scratched his palm, reminding him immediately of yesterday’s practice room. Seeing Lu Xiaochuan playfully attacking Ning Lan from behind, he giggled and giggled.

At that time, his mood was displeased for no reason, and he secretly pondered for a long time and found no reason. Now he suddenly realized that he had taken Ning Lan under his arm subconsciously, thinking that he was his own, and hoped that his every move and smile would develop in accordance with his own expectations.

This recognition made Sui Yang more stubborn. In the end, he is no different from those who try to control the lives of others with money. This is the desire to control, possess, or some other inferiority that is born to be a man. It is anxious to distinguish from his current experience, which is equivalent to watching flowers in the mist.

In the confused minutes of Sui Yue, Ning Lan opened her mouth and yawned slightly, her eyes were more wet. He let go of his hand and turned inward, leaving only a back to Sui Yang, stretching his voice and saying, “Good night-good night-“

After the lights were turned off, Wan Ye was silent.

Ning Lan, lying on her side and sleeping, opened her eyes and closed them again and again, so she could not disperse the pressure of helplessness and layers of entanglement.

If Sui Yue could be a little worse for him, he would feel relaxed and uncertain, at least not thinking about how to deal with it, or thinking about what to pay for it.

The gentleness that comes from the essence is the most silent and the most irresistible.
