Chapter 17: We Are One
I don't know what happened to Park Chulong, but after the other party unilaterally hung up the phone, Wang Nanqian didn't dare to contact the other party again in a short time: because at the end he vaguely heard Zheng Endi's voice, and he didn't even know how he got out of the bathroom - until he heard a strange sound from the kitchen, Wang Nanqian eased up a little. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Afraid that some illegitimate meal had sneaked into the dormitory, he turned his head to look in the direction of the kitchen - after adapting to the dark environment, Wang Nanqian immediately saw the figure of the younger brother who was leaning against the refrigerator door, holding a soju bottle.
Even when he was hidden by the company and only two people were guarding the somewhat empty dormitory, even though the relationship with him seemed to have become a little tense for a certain period of time, Wang Nanqian had never seen Bian Boxian like this - he was still full of anxiety because of the unexpected situation on Park Chulong's side, although he knew very well that he might not be able to take care of this younger brother's affairs at this time, he still didn't hold back and asked out loud.
Then he was surprised to hear the invitation sent to him by Bian Boxian, who seemed to have some emotions for himself all the time in his heart.
"Ah...... what are you talking about?" Wang Nanqian could hardly believe his ears - he even thought that he had some auditory hallucinations or delusions because he was too worried about the situation in Pu Chulong's place, because he was too worried and nervous.
"Brother, come and have a drink with me. ”
The guy in front of him used to be one of the closest Korean trainees to him before his debut, but with the series of changes that happened after EXO's debut, he became more and more estranged: although everyone lives together and can almost see each other's existence when they open their eyes, the physical proximity still can't make any improvement in the relationship between the two people, who have drifted apart.
Wang Nanqian didn't try to talk to this younger brother about the problems between them, he imagined countless times in his heart what kind of opportunity to find, how to let the two of them be able to talk to each other - but he never expected that it would be in such a situation, and it would be Bian Boxian who took the initiative to send out the signal to seek communication.
"I have a lot of words and a lot of things to keep in my heart...... Brother is probably the same, right?" raised his right hand holding the soju bottle and shook it in the direction where Wang Nanqian was standing, although he didn't get any response from the other party, Bian Boxian continued as if he was talking to himself, "Once...... You are the most respectable brother and senior in my heart, but now, I can't restrain myself from envying you and jealousy of you......"
“…… Is there anything I can do?"
Listening to the other party's heartfelt words word by word, Wang Nanqian couldn't help but recall the years before his debut: Once upon a time, he and Bian Boxian were also relatives and friends who could sit together in the practice room holding beer cans and chatting......
"I envy my brother that you have a separate itinerary, I envy my brother that you can star in a TV series, I envy my brother that you can win the Best Newcomer Award, and I envy my brother for the kind of intimate relationship between you and the other seniors in the company......" didn't pay attention to Wang Nanqian's words, Bian Boxian was still talking to himself, "Then I suddenly found that those envy turned into jealousy...... Brother, you know, I used to dream about these things when I was dreaming, but in my dreams, the person who got those things became me......."
"I know that I may look ridiculous," as if venting, he poured another sip of soju, and Bian Bae-hyun exhaled a long breath, and then suddenly laughed softly, "I know how hard you work and how hard you are, and I also know that you don't get those things by luck alone...... Why should I be jealous of you? But I can't help but wonder why all of us can only repeat those monotonous exercises every day in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirrors and the floor, while my brother can get one trip after another......?
"You're going to get your chance, Baekhyun. You must know that hard work will not betray people, and you, our exo, will definitely become the most powerful star, and will definitely be popular all over the world. "Maybe it's not just Bian Boxian, maybe there are many members who have more or less this idea about themselves, right? After everyone was canceled from the trip, he was the only one who continued to get opportunities - even if the relationship between the members was close, it was inevitable that they would be dissatisfied with it, right? Standing in the kitchen without the slightest light, Speaking comforting words to Bian Boxian that did not have any practical meaning, Wang Nanqian suddenly felt as if he was trapped in a dark quagmire: as long as similar things continued to happen, no matter how hard he tried, there might be no way to save the relationship with this once close brother.
Putting aside the identity of artists, everyone is just an ordinary big boy in his twenties: people's hearts are made of flesh, no one is a saint without desires, how can he force others to do those things that he may not be able to do? When he was hidden by the company, didn't he also envy the members who could still go overseas to carry out propaganda activities?
"Brother, you don't need to say it again, I understand," Lifting the soju bottle again, pouring the liquid inside down his throat, feeling the faint irritation after the soju entered his stomach, Bian Boxian closed his eyes, "What I said to you just now, you should think that a drunk person is messing around...... You can rest assured, I will soon tidy up my own, we are exo, we are one, brother's success is my success, brother's popularity is my popularity, after all, weareone...... Isn't it?"
I don't know if this younger brother who kept pouring his soju has really vented all the emotions in his heart, resulting in some relieved emotions, or if he is still angry to say such a thing, Wang Nanqian didn't know what to say to Bian Boxian in front of him to respond to him for a while - at such an embarrassing time, the mobile phone that had been held in his hand since he walked out of the bathroom suddenly vibrated continuously: the lit screen was particularly dazzling in the dark kitchen.
"It's Taeyeon's senior...... Right?"
When he said this, Bian Boxian only felt that his mouth was full of bitter taste.
"Ah?...... What?"
"Brother, let's go, leave me alone, I've made enough trouble, it's time to go to sleep......" Holding the refrigerator door with his empty left hand, Bian Boxian struggled to straighten his waist, "Hurry up and reply to the message...... How can you make ...... What is she waiting for?"
P.S. Actually...... Caught up (to be continued.) )
