For a period of time after the start of the third year of high school, Li Pu lived the same regular life of going to school, practicing, going to school, and cultivating as usual. I spent some time here with Tang Mei. Of course, the big singers themselves are also busy, and Li Pu only needs to spare about one day a week to be enough. The rest of the time was spent with Qin Xia'er.

It's just that there is one more Qin Xia'er, who will always come and chat with him. made some of the more gossipy classmates in the class almost decide that Li Pu and Qin Xia'er were a happy couple.

For other students, the academic pressure in the third year of high school is very heavy, but Qin Xia'er's own grades are very good, and with that family condition, she is not worried about going on to higher education at all. So even though she spent a lot of time preparing for extracurricular competitions, her family was still very open-minded and supported her to achieve her dreams.

As for Li Pu, no one cares about him at home, no one cares about him at school, and his future path and life plans have nothing to do with the college entrance examination a long time ago.

Lee Pu maintains the serialization of the novel on "MeninBlack". The response is getting better and better, and there are a large number of fans overseas. The domestic science fiction world magazine has contacted him several times through the forum text message, and overseas booksellers have also indirectly conveyed the intention of signing a contract for publication. And I want to recommend this work to the Nebula Award.

But what Li Pu really wants is not these vain applause and honors.

- This book is just a New Year's gift for a girl.

Time gradually passed, and it came to the beginning of April 2004, and finally came to the third stop of the "Global Idol" Chinese Division, the day of the audition in Shanghai.

Boys and girls from all over the country who are interested in this and dreamers who are no longer young gather in the back/stage hall of the audition building in the Shanghai City competition area. As with the screening method in the United States, where it originated, all applicants must go through a preliminary review before the official audition, and most of the applicants will be eliminated at this level. Those who can stay on stage and face to face with the four mentors are generally very good, or particularly speechless - in order to increase the ratings, this is understandable, but it also screens out many applicants who have a certain strength, but have no "astrology" for various reasons.

Of course, Li Pu and Qin Xia'er were among them, and they successfully passed the preliminary examination, received the players' number plates and entered the back/stage hall.

Because it is a selection of idols, talent is one of them, and the appearance needs to be excellent. Today's Qin Xia'er specially dressed up, ELLE's light-colored lady-style coat and short skirt of the current season, revealing just the right absolute field, BALLY's handmade refined deerskin boots wrapped around the delicate and slender calves. Qing Shui out of Hibiscus's soft face, only a little bit of lip gloss was smeared, and the whole body was filled with the youthful vitality of a young girl, and the well-developed graceful figure added some soft and touching femininity to her.

Li Pu thought to himself, when he was a child, he felt that Qin Xia'er was not very good, first, everyone was a little simple in that era, and she was still a ponytail and a little loli did not grow. What's more, Chen Xian, who is often compared, is really outstanding.

Xiaoxian's mother Chenxin is naturally a rare beauty, and her father Di Tianxia uses a face more handsome than Jude Law to disguise his super-dangerous nature. Chenxian, a mixed-race child who inherited the advantages of her parents, is naturally too good to be outstanding. In the past, comparing her was a bit of a bully to Xia'er's squad leader.

Most of the people who came to participate in the audition were young men and women, except for some special exceptions, basically they looked good, but at this moment, standing in a large group of peers who were dreaming of idols, Qin Xia'er was still quite outstanding, and there was no doubt that she was an orthodox beautiful girl.

Plus she's dressed up...... It's a bit too rich for a lady. As a result, some dream-chasing girls who wore affordable but cheap fashionable clothes, carried heavy bags, and rushed to Huhai City from other places to compete, in addition to normal amazement and envy, a trace of jealousy occasionally flashed in Qin Xia'er's eyes.

However, Qin Xia'er, who was waiting for the roll call to enter the performance, did not feel the gaze of others at all.

"This is the first time...... Do what you want to do for the first time. Qin Xia'er's thoughts swirling repeatedly in her heart made her feel a little afraid, but more excited.

She has been a very orthodox good child since she was a child, she takes her favorite and disliked homework very seriously, she is a perfect three-good student in front of the teacher, and she does not bother her parents at home.

Won the school's award, got good grades in the exam, was appreciated by teachers and parents, had good conduct and talent, became a grade representative, and was regarded as a role model by his classmates...... That's all she's grown up to now.

As a high school student, maybe that's enough to be complete. It's just that Qin Xia'er occasionally feels that she is not because she is too conformist, just for the praise of others and keeps working hard, and even loses the direction she really wants.

When I was a child, I saw the mixed-race girl who climbed up and down with Li Pu, messing around on the ridge of the field, and reading various extracurricular books freely. Qin Xia'er thinks about it at the moment, maybe the disdainful attitude on the surface is ignorant envy.

This sentiment became more and more evident after the kidnapping.

A small transformation in my heart, gradually conceived, and broken through the cocoon.

So, she couldn't even stand it until she graduated from high school, and for the first time tried to put aside her inhibitions and do what she wanted to do purely for herself.

Dealing with your parents is not as difficult as you think. Maybe she suddenly had her own ideas, which made her mother a little happy, and her father didn't object, but just said that since she wanted to do it, she would do it seriously.

"Huh......," the girl opened her mouth slightly, "I can definitely do it, don't be nervous." ”

I used to be a grade representative in elementary school, junior high school, and even high school, but I also had to stand in front of the teachers and students of the whole school and give a speech very vigorously.

A staff member came over, first calling out the names of the two girls, and finally continued to shout; “…… and Qin Yue's makeup (Qin Xia'er signed up with this name)! The three scholars are ready to perform, and now it's your turn. ”

Qin Xia'er stood up suddenly, and said to the young man beside her without a head: "I'll go over first, that, don't be nervous." ”

"What am I tightening ......" Li Pu sighed and gave Qin Xia'er a thumbs up, "Don't worry, your boobs are so big, it must be OK!" ”

Li Pu's voice was not loud, but in the back/stage hall of the large court, after all, it was heard by many people, and dozens of pairs of eyes suddenly looked over. The eyes cast were either smiling, or some strange swept towards the girl's body.

"Eh, stupid," Qin Xia'er, who was miserable onlookers, couldn't help but clasp her hands in front of her chest with a scarlet face, and said in shame: "This is more than singing, and ...... It doesn't matter if it's big or not. ”

"You also know that this is an idol competition, it's useless to just sing well, you have to be tolerant." Li Pu smiled, "I heard that there are some draft competitions in Japan, and there are swimsuit reviews.

"But not in this game." Qin Xia'er thought about it for a moment and said with certainty.

"It's a pity, didn't you lose a big plus?" Li Pu sighed.

"I don't want such a bonus......" The girl who would be seventeen years old in more than half a year muttered with a red face, but she felt a little happy when Li Pu said this. Even in his eyes, he's pretty cute, right?

Being fooled around like this by Li Pu, Qin Xia'er's emotions were really appeased a lot inexplicably. When it was her turn to take the stage, in front of the eyes of more than 1,000 people and four instructors, she seemed to be back to the situation she had with her teachers and classmates in school.

The four people sitting in front of the front judge mentor have two buttons in front of them. Choose a tick or cross to determine whether the contestant has value to stay in this short three-minute performance.

Super auditions held in many cities across the country, no matter how many people come, in the end, only 80 of the best players can get the "Golden Pass". Then, in a series of TV broadcasts, the final five will be eliminated and the Chinese-speaking region will go to the Asian competition on behalf of the Chinese-speaking region.

When Qin Xia'er walked lightly onto the stage. Ms. Tang Mei, who had known Qin Xia'er for a long time, naturally flashed a trace of satisfaction in her expression - this private student of hers, even if she put aside her family background/scene, she was also the best seedling she had ever seen in all aspects.

Seeing the girls on stage, the popular young singer Wang Yuzhi and the little diva Zhou Jielun, who was sitting on his left hand side and wearing a cowboy hat, long black hair up to her shoulders, and a single-eyelid face, looked cool. The corners of Zhou Jielun's mouth curled, and she whispered: "Oh, a wonderful orthodox beautiful girl." ”

Liu Buhuan, the oldest of the judges' mentors, said with a smile; "Well, very cute girl. What is your name? Still a student, right? ”

Qin Xia'er touched her fingers together, smiling softly and movingly with a hint of youth, "I am a student of Huhai No. 1 High School, called Qin Yuexiang." ”

"Then little sister Qin Yue, why did you come to participate in the competition?" Liu Buhuan asked again.

"Because I love singing!" Qin Xia'er didn't think about it, and blurted out this sentence. After saying that, it felt too ordinary - probably a contestant would say that! So she immediately added: "I have been very disciplined since I was a child, and I only know how to study seriously......"

Speaking of this, the girl smiled blankly, "I used to think that I was so ruthless, but recently, I always feel that it is not ...... Some lack individuality. This is the first time I have done what I want to do, and I have chosen my own hobbies and directions. Even if it's just a small sidewalk, if you can finish it well, you will feel very satisfied. ”

didn't tell a sad story, just a faint, a bit of a girl's delicate expression, but the sincere words made both the tutor and the audience feel good.

"Okay, let's start your show now." Zhou Jielun said coolly.

Watched by the four judges and more than a thousand spectators, Qin Xia'er's eyelids drooped slightly, her eyelashes fluttered, and she took a deep breath.

It's been a long time coming, so it's now!
