Chapter 48: Who Is There But Me?

"Zhu Hyun Oni, hurry up, hurry up, I'll play it first. Jiang Shiqi impatiently urged Bae Joo-hyun, who was still wiping the undried water droplets on her long hair, lying on the bed and fiddling with her hands on the Ipad that her parents gave her as a birthday gift, and the small screen was the video of EXO's first integration stage. It was impossible for her and Bae Joo-hyun to be able to see the time of the live broadcast of the TV station, they were still in the company's practice room at that time, and this video was specially asked by Jiang Shiqi to be filmed by her parents with their mobile phones and sent to her.

Bae Joo-hyun wrapped her little head in a big towel, since she received such a message, she has been a little uneasy these days, although she wants to try her best to convince herself that it is really just a question asked by the other party in order to create lyrics, but Bae Joo-hyun always feels that things are not so simple.

"Why is it so blurry?" leaned in front of Jiang Shiqi's bed, looking at the paste preview screen that almost couldn't see clearly, Bae Joo-hyun muttered and threw the wet towel on Jiang Shiqi's head, "You keep urging and urging and urging, so that I ran out without even putting on a mask, how can I watch this kind of video?"

"Ah, Ernie what are you doing!" Jiang Shiqi screamed and threw the towel back to the other party, and was treated so roughly, so that she didn't care about saying honorifics to this close Ernie, "This is taken on TV, it's good to have this kind of clarity, what else do you want to do with Ernie?"

The towel was back in her hand, and the string prelude of the song "MAMA" had already sounded as Kang Seok-ki pressed the triangle button on the screen, but Bae Joo-hyun didn't dare to be interested in the first half of the EXO-K stage at all, and she continued to deal with her hair intently.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I forgot when we started to be locked up in the smarts,

My world is only spent in the system of zero and one,

No vitality, no feelings, no basis every day,

The longer it goes, the more lonely it becomes, and only I am hurt and sad......"

I have entered the Chinese part! I can't understand what I'm singing! Bae Joo-hun was about to take advantage of the EXO-K stage part before the end to get the skin care lotion, but suddenly heard the Chinese singing section from the Ipad, she quickly threw herself in front of the small screen and stared intently at the figure standing in the back row.

'No vitality, no emotion, no basis every day, the longer it goes, the more lonely it becomes, only I am hurt and sad. Pei Zhuxun didn't understand a single note of the lyrics in this Chinese singing passage, but she excitedly grabbed Jiang Shiqi's shoulders who were huddled on the bed: "Come on! Turn to the front!"

"Oops, isn't this what Shiki said, Joo-hyun's child's Chinese boyfriend?"

"Don't talk nonsense, didn't Shiki say that no one is allowed to tell him about this? ”

"How can I say it? I think you'll say it!"

The video's own narration sounded after the man's singing was over, louder than the sound on the television. This kind of conversation made Pei Zhuqi listen to it with a fever, she let go of Jiang Shiqi's shoulders, and covered her face with both hands to reveal only a pair of eyes: the relationship with Jiang Shiqi in the past two years is very close, she has naturally visited each other's homes many times, the voices of Jiang's father and Jiang's mother Pei Zhuyun are very familiar, hearing the two elders make fun of herself like this, she was so ashamed that she couldn't get into the quilt on Jiang Shiqi's bed and bury herself.

"This stage is so handsome," Jiang Shiqi couldn't see the expression of Bae Joo-hyun behind her, and she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her parents' "narration", looking at the stage where EXO-K and EXO-M were divided into two teams and danced opposite each other in the video, she couldn't hide her yearning for being on the stage in her heart, "Qian Oppa also debuted, when will Ernie and I debut?"

Since his debut, it seems that the distance between him and himself has become more and more distant. Bae Joo-hyun carefully distinguishes the man's figure on the screen through the gap between her fingers, maybe she will really enter another world after her debut, right? If you don't practice hard and don't work hard to enter that world, will you lose the opportunity to be with him forever?

What is he doing now? Is he already on the plane to the United States? Bae Joo-hyun looked at the stage on the screen in a daze.

"You don't want to sit with me so much?" Lin Xuanjun looked at the boy who was sitting on the seat next to him and looked a little helpless, and couldn't help but mutter. For tomorrow night's S.M. Town concert in Los Angeles, EXO and Girls' Generation Teti Xu, who also had a singing schedule today, rushed to the airport immediately after the stage, and now he is sitting in the same row of seats on the plane as Wang Nanqian.

Compared to you, I am willing to let me sit with any member, Wang Nanqian silently spit in her heart, but on the surface, she did not dare to make any disrespectful gesture to this agent brother: Lin Xuanjun and Wu Yifan changed seats, which means that Wu Yifan, an unlucky ghost, wants to sit with Li Chenghuan, and he is not the most unlucky person: "How can it be? Anyway, I have to make up for sleep on the plane, and it is the same with whoever I sit with." ”

"The day before yesterday, Brother Seunghwan and I, as well as the people from the company's planning department, were called together by the directors for a meeting, and we probably decided how the group's future promotional activities should be carried out. Turning his head to look at the boy beside him, who had obviously not received any news, Lin Xuanjun couldn't help but sigh, leaned over the other party's ear and whispered to start this conversation that he had been planning for a long time, "During the meeting, we also reported and summarized the recent situation of the group. There are some contents in it, and Brother Chenghuan and I are afraid that it will affect your stage today, so we haven't dared to tell you. I deliberately changed you to my side because I wanted to tell you in advance about some things, so that you could be mentally prepared. ”

Something is wrong.

Usually whether they are scolded or reprimanded, everyone is used to Lin Xuanjun expressing his love and care for the members in this way, but when Lin Xuanjun speaks seriously, there must be a real problem: suddenly nervous, Wang Nanqian couldn't help but straighten her back: "Brother Xuanjun, is something wrong?"

"After this singing stage, EXO will be promoting the event as a complete group, which was decided at the last company meeting. Brother Cheng Huan has submitted a report that the uneven popularity and activity methods of the two teams have caused a tendency to disagree in the team, and the company attaches great importance to this matter. ”

Isn't it a particularly strict thing to let Team M and Team K do activities at the same time in two separate places? The members had heard such rumors for a long time, and he felt a little relaxed: "The members have probably heard about this matter, so it shouldn't have any impact on everyone, right?"

"Not only that, because of the report submitted by Brother Cheng Huan and me, the company is very dissatisfied with the recent words and deeds of the two members of the group. Therefore, the planning department and the directors decided to refrigerate the two members in the overseas publicity activities in the second half of this year, so that they could stay in China and seriously reflect on their mistakes," finally to the point, Lim Hyun-gyun carefully observed the look of the boy next to him, "In other words, the group will use ten people to carry out overseas publicity activities in the second half of the year." ”

Refrigeration?In other words, the propaganda activities carried out overseas don't let these two members go? Just after their debut, they will be refrigerated, how hard will this be to the members?

Wait a minute.

Originally, I didn't think it was a very strict thing, but seeing Lin Xuanjun's strange expression looking at him, and thinking of the thing he thought he would not have a problem a few days ago, Wang Nanqian only felt that his whole body became cold.

When I saw Park Chulong again backstage today, he was still happy and relieved for the girl's seemingly effective weight loss in the past few days - at least her face looked a little sharper than before - I didn't expect that because of this girl, because of the impulsive behavior that I did for her as if I was bewitched by a ghost, I would have to pay the price so quickly: it was still such a painful price.

Is this woman an angel or a demon?

"Brother Xuanjun...... Who else but me?"

After ending his life as a trainee for such a long time, he exploded in popularity as soon as he debuted, and was even put on a hat like "GD of S.M. Company", did he inflate himself unconsciously? Lin Xuanjun's euphemistic words were like a hammer slammed into his heart, making him instantly recall the bloody lessons of the trainee era: the most hated thing by the company is disobedient artists, how can he not always keep such a thing in his heart? Although only a few words were added, this has already angered the company, right? After all, EXO is only a group that has only debuted for more than a month, why do you think that you are different from the self you used to be when you were a trainee?

In addition to himself, who is the other person? Is it Lu Han, who is very happy both in the dormitory and backstage? Or Wu Yifan, who always has a cold face to make the seniors think that this person is dissatisfied with his predecessors? Is it Du Junxiu who caused a stage accident? Or Wu Shixun, who complained about the company in the company's practice room a few days ago and was scolded by Li Chenghuan?

Carefully recalling what each member of the group has done in the past few days, it seems that everyone may be the one who caused trouble: none of the twelve of them had a thorn in the body that was as difficult to adjust as Kim Hee-cheol and Choi Xueli before their debut, which is the reason why they were able to debut. But it is precisely such twelve people, why do they all seem to have become "disobedient" people in just a month and a half after their debut?

Gaining popularity, writing songs, and getting a good image in the heart of the meal - this was once a qiΔ“ that he longed for, and now he seems to have it all. However, this qiΔ“ came too quickly, the screams of the meals, and the ridicule between the members: those praise and popularity from the outside world not only made themselves, but also all EXO members seem to have become willful - the huge gap between the trainees and the popular idols was actually filled by the publicity department of S.M. Company, and the entire group and all the members deliberately avoided this matter in their hearts? I thought I was already a popular artist, so I became impetuous?

"Can't you think of it?" Speaking of which, that matter has something to do with you and Lu Han," his face was full of frustration and chagrin, but he couldn't see any dissatisfaction and excitement, this kid has already begun to introspect, right? Lin Xuanjun was very satisfied with this and felt very sorry, "Actually, when Team M just returned to South Korea to play songs, the company already wanted to appoint you as the captain of the entire group, and intended to let you lead the team to overseas publicity in the second half of the year." After that meeting, I was still happy for you, who would have thought that you would have to take the initiative to cause trouble yourself? I also went to investigate, if I didn't know that you and that Apink Park Chulong never knew each other before playing on the singing stage, you would probably ...... this time."

What kind of meaning is hidden in Lin Xuanjun's deliberately prolonged voice, Wang Nanqian knows very well in her heart, she didn't expect that just because of her headless words, it would lead to such a terrifying chain reaction: a newly debuted male idol was suspicious and worried about which opposite sex he had a good impression of, and he was still thinking about those things he shouldn't do or care about at all, he didn't even do what he should do well, but he still wanted to take care of other people's affairs?

Recalling that at that time, he had complained in his heart about Byun Baek-hyun's "strange" feelings for Kim Taeyeon, how could it turn out that he himself was planted in the pit first? Has his mentality changed so much compared to that time? The more he thought about it, the more panicked he felt: "Brother Hyun Jun, I caused something this time, and the company wants to punish me, and I accept it all." But what about the other person? Is it Lu Han? Or is it KRIS? He and Assistant Jin ......."

"KRIS? HE DID HAVE A BIT OF AN UNPLEASANT QUARREL WITH ASSISTANT JIN A FEW DAYS AGO, AND THE COMPANY WILL DEAL WITH THIS MATTER SOONER OR LATER: BUT THIS TIME IT'S NOT HIM, IT'S YOU AND BAEKHYUN. I don't know when Brother Chenghuan will tell SΓΉ Boxian about this matter, I am telling you about this now, I just hope that you can adjust your mentality on the day off after the concert in the United States, "This kid himself is already confused, but he is still in the mood to worry about his younger brothers in his team, Lin Xuanjun couldn't help but stretch out his right hand and hugged his shoulder, "It's nothing to go overseas for publicity in the second half of the year, and the company has already figured out a reason not to go overseas for you." Since you gained a lot of popularity since your debut, the directors have actually changed their opinion of you a lot. This time, you set your heart down and write a few more good songs, and the company very much hopes that you can write good works and publish them on the group's official album in the future. ”

Bian Boxian? Could it be that he spoke ill of himself and Lu Han? Obviously he apologized like that, but Li Chenghuan actually reported the incident to the company? Unexpectedly, his brother and sister turned out to be Bian Boxian, is the punishment of that child too strict? Wang Nanqian was stunned and listened to Lin Xuanjun's whispered words of comfort in his ear, and the whole person was stunned.
