Chapter 67: Don't Come
"Reply to the dormitory."
These few simple words made the heart of Mingjing Nan, who was a little disappointed before, feel uplifted, and the depressed mood infected by his companions seemed to be injected with a refreshing temperature at once.
She remembered that Chi Jingyuan glanced at her when he was leaving, and he was about to say something but stopped talking, and he didn't understand what it meant just now, but after seeing the news, he had some guesses.
Because Chi Jingyuan and the other Minato Sasha were not familiar with each other, he didn't say anything like asking them to go back early, but was a little closer to Mingjing Nan, and it was estimated that he was going to tell him in person.
It's just that when I was about to say it, I didn't know if Najing Nan told the other two friends about their exchange of contact information, so I didn't say it directly considering this, but reminded me by text message after leaving.
Nanai didn't know if his conjecture was right, but when he thought of this layer, his mood immediately became much lighter, and he had a feeling of being taken care of, and he had a crispy current in his heart for the attention and carefulness of the other party.
She looked up again at the direction in front of the alley, where Chi Jingyuan left, and couldn't help but clench the mobile phone in her hand.
Maybe I'm a little tired from crying for too long, or it's getting late and I have to estimate the time to go back to the dormitory, or maybe the conversation just now made Hirai Tao slightly relieve the dissatisfaction and sadness in his heart, and soon after Ji Jingyuan left, the neon trio cleaned up the things on the ground and walked in the direction of the dormitory.
The members of "Sixteen", whether it is the Major group or the Minor group, are houses that the company rents nearby, and the accommodation conditions are much better than the trainee dormitory, which is not far away from Cheongdam-dong, and it won't take too long to walk.
It's just that Momo Hirai, who has been eliminated from "Sixteen", can't go to live in those two dormitories anymore, and has to go back to the dormitory for trainees, and she has already packed up her salute and moved back in the afternoon.
From the dormitory where the competition is preparing for the debut, to the return to the trainee dormitory, it is naturally sad to be eliminated and have no hope of debuting, but this gap in environment and identity, especially after moving back, being watched by the inexplicable eyes of the roommates around you, the feeling of being watched as lively and laughing, and even being pitifully sighed in columns, is actually really unacceptable.

This is especially true for people like Hirai Momo, who are very confident in their own strength, and a foreign trainee, which is also a very important reason why she is so aggrieved.
Identity and treatment have changed with the elimination of status, and the mentality is inevitably skewed and unbalanced.
The trainee dormitory is far away and needs to take a taxi, but now she doesn't want to go back directly to be watched, but wants to follow her two friends for another walk.
The three of them seemed to have something on their minds and didn't know what they were thinking, although they were shoulder to shoulder, their hands were still holding each other, but they didn't speak, they could only hear the mixed footsteps mixed together, and the deep voice seemed to reflect the emotions in the master's heart.
Until they walked back from the alley to the main road, the brilliant lights and LEDs flickered the eyes of several people, and the sound of the continuous passing car horns suddenly pulled them out of the atmosphere of contemplation and silence, and returned to the colorful and busy and cold reality.
"Actually...... What Chi Jingyuan said just now makes a lot of sense, it's not just JYP that can launch a girl group, there must be a lot of opportunities for so many entertainment economic companies, and I heard from my seniors and friends that the trainees from our big companies are quite sought-after in other small and medium-sized clubs. ”
After being quiet for a while, it seemed that she felt that the mentality of her friends around her had calmed down, and Sasha Minato took the initiative to comfort her.
Her voice is very distinctive, slightly sharp, but not harsh, but gives people a sense of enthusiasm and sincerity, and she speaks her hometown dialect very comfortably.
As she spoke, she licked her lips and leaned a little closer to the side: "There must be a lot of opportunities with Momo-chan's strength, although it's really a pity that you can't be with us, but after all, there is no way to do it for the sake of debut." ”
"Ha, Sana-chan is right!" Minami Nai chuckled when she heard this, and looked at Sasha Minato and the two glanced at each other.
"Hmm."
Hirai Momo nodded, he had been in a state of grievance and confusion because of the elimination, but now after listening to the words of Zhichi Jingyuan and his friends, he has some direction in his heart.
Although the debut of a small company may not be comparable to that of a large company like JYP in terms of resources and treatment, as long as it can debut, it is good.
Anyway, it has been eliminated, and the only way to do this is to find another way and stop loss, with direction and hope for debut, there will be motivation, and it will not be aimlessly sad.
"But I think and pool... Chi Jingyuan said the same, momo-chan, you'd better communicate with the company to see if there are any arrangements in the future. ”
Mingjing Nan also interjected, she recalled Chi Jingyuan's suggestion just now, thought about it and continued: "It's just that I think if you want to ask, it's best to wait for a while, at least after the end of "Sixteen", even if you change companies." ”
"That's right, I also think that I can't be in too much of a hurry."
Sasha Minato also nodded and agreed.
The two friends are both coming up with ideas for Hirai Momo, in fact, this is not only to help and comfort the friend, but also to think about their own future in a sense.
Today is Hirai Momo is eliminated.,Maybe it's your turn tomorrow.,The chances of a foreign trainee debut are not high.,And according to convention, even if you add neon origin, there won't be too many people.,Sana and Mina Maybe one of them will be eliminated soon.。
The peninsula is still relatively xenophobic, and many companies even if they consider the market, there is a high probability that a trainee of one nationality will only add one person in a combination, and the positioning of two members of the same nationality will begin to repeat.
"I know, I definitely won't leave now, and even if I am eliminated, I will not stop practicing, and I will go to practice on time tomorrow."
Hirai Tao is actually quite strong, and after recognizing the reality and seeing the road ahead, he also struggled to cheer up.
After walking for a while, having a new goal relieved Hirai Momo's sadness a little, and became a little lighter, and the noise around him also made several people feel a lot better, and the vitality returned to his body, at least not as decadent as just now.
Looking at a gorgeous storefront signboard opposite, Hirai Tao remembered the chance encounter just now, rolled his eyes and suddenly said, "Speaking of which, I think Yuan... Chi Jingyuan's personality is actually quite good, and it doesn't feel so unapproachable. ”
Although it was just a simple exchange of a few words before, she kept the other party's casual two gentle words in her heart, in the short conversation just now, the other party did not have a top idol shelf, and it seemed that they did not treat them as ordinary trainees with unequal status, and their expressions were very natural, just like a casual chat between friends.
This kind of care encountered during the trough sounds really heartwarming.
Speaking of this topic, several people can't help but be interested.,Just like exo usually likes to discuss beautiful female idols when he's bored in private.,Female trainees also like to talk about some heterosexual trainees or seniors.,The nature is actually the same.。
And Chi Jingyuan is actually a goal that they often discuss, not to mention that he is the most popular member of the hottest boy group at the moment, but also because he has really had wonderful interactions with several people, and they have seen him more real in private, rather than the character on the stage and in front of the camera.
At the same time, because the two of them actually knew that their friend Mingjing Nan had a good impression of him, which also contributed to this kind of conversation.
"It's okay, sometimes I think he's hard to touch, I don't know why I always have a feeling...... How so...... It's just that sometimes he doesn't look at us very much, although there is a smile on his face, but the sense of alienation is obvious. ”
Sasha Minatosaki, who likes to socialize very much, took the lead in commenting and said some of her impressions and feelings about Chi Jingyuan.
Her emotional intelligence is very high, and her senses are also very keen, and sometimes she can feel the calm heart of the other party's sunny smile, although it seems to be friendly, but it is not easy to get close.
"But the others are really good, the first time I met them in the club, I couldn't see it, he knew Lee Junhao and Bigbang for a long time, and it obviously had nothing to do with him, but he was not afraid of offending the president who seemed to be very powerful, and finally stood up to help Mina-chan out of the siege, very responsible, and at the same time, he didn't ask for anything in return, he just couldn't look past it, and people with this kind of character in the entertainment industry are really rare."
"I thought we were going to die that day, but no one thought that he would suddenly help, so he stood up and pressed Mina-chan's shoulder to sit down again, and then blocked the front, wow, every time I think of this picture, I feel handsome!"
But even so, Sasha Minato still has a very good impression of Chi Jingyuan, because the memory left by the first meeting is too deep, even if she is not the person who is known as Minami, but as a bystander of the whole process, she can see what happened at that time most objectively.
"Uh-huh......" Listening to his friend's praise for him, Minami nodded quickly while echoing, obviously agreeing.
No one can understand the mood at that time better than the person concerned, in the midst of grievance and despair, suddenly a warm hand appeared on his shoulder, and pressed her back to the sofa when she stood up, the impact and feeling were too deep.
She also had a different feeling because of this incident, and she can't forget it to this day.
"That's because Chi Jingyuan himself is not afraid of that president, and it can be seen in the police station that his family conditions must be very good, even the regular director is so polite, and he doesn't even have anything to do with us...... And the person who seems to be his brother really has a very strong aura and doesn't look at people squarely, so I don't dare to look at him. ”
"It's because he's a rich kid, and it's even more rare to be like this."
"That's what I said......"
"Also, when he came to participate in the issue of "Sixteen" as a judge, Park Jin-young pd hinted, and he also said in front of PD that I danced well, ah, it's really ......"
Momo Hirai talked about one thing she cared about very much.
Because she lost the first episode, she really worked hard to prepare for the recording of that episode, but she still couldn't get Park Jinying's appreciation, but Ji Jingyuan, who served as a judge, affirmed her strength on the stage, even if she still fell into the poor student group in the end, but the voice of encouragement and recognition at that time made her remember it vividly.
She suddenly understood Minami Nakai in that instant.
"He is still so handsome, and the seniors in our company don't feel like he has it, let alone got7...... Alas, no wonder people are so popular, the last time I chatted with a senior I knew, I heard her say that since EXO first debuted, when it was not popular, there were many female idols in the circle who were very interesting to Chi Jingyuan, and there were more than one or two people chasing after them just by making moves......"
"That is, Mina-chan has a very high vision, didn't she also choose Chi Jingyuan as her boyfriend? I just don't know if he and Pei Xiuzhi have separated, but looking at the way they were judges together some time ago, they should still be dating, right? ”
They can see it clearly in the club, and they all know that Ji Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi have a close relationship, so they have always thought that these two are in a relationship. I have often joked about this before, but even if they are on the side of Mingjing Nan, they don't think that there is any comparison between Mingjing Nan and Pei Xiuzhi, who are trainees.
"Gee, why did you talk about this again?"
"It's supposed to be ......" It was nothing to joke in private before, but at this time, seeing that Nai Nan was a little uncharacteristically dissatisfied and a little shy, Hirai Momo didn't think too much, and finally smiled, blinked and changed the topic: "It was Taeyeon seniors of Girls' Generation who was with Ji Jingyuan just now, right?" Why are the two of them here together at this time, shouldn't they ......?"
"I don't think so, listening to the tone, I should be talking about something, and didn't I say it on the variety show before, the two of them have a good relationship, they are very close sisters and brothers, and they are still in the same company, so it's normal to go out for a meal together."
"Why doesn't our company have this kind of seniors who make people want to be friends and close to them......?"
"So, it looks like EXO is going to have a concert soon, but it's a pity that I didn't get a ticket this time."
"Their tickets sold out in half a second, and last time I was lucky enough to grab two, and this time they sold out as soon as they clicked in. It's a pity.,It's just a little idle for the filming of the show these days.,You can go and see it if you have time.,Actually, I'm okay.,Mina-chan definitely wants to go.。 ”
"I ...... I want to go. ”
"It's a pity that we don't know Chi Jingyuan well, we don't even have contact information, and I don't know if Zhou Ziyu got the internal ticket for the front row from someone else......"
"It should be, their relationship should be really good, you didn't watch the issue where Chi Jingyuan was a judge, what kind of bias did it take to favor Zhou Ziyu, Lin Nalian still hates him now, hahaha......"
"Let's work hard, debut is the most important thing now."
"That's what you say......
…………
"I'm back in the dorm (smiley)."
After returning to the dormitory, Mingjing Nan quickly changed his shoes and washed his face, then hurriedly lay on the bed and quickly took out his mobile phone, and obediently sent a message to Chi Jingyuan.
After experiencing the elimination of her good friend Momo, she has a lot of empathy and emotion at this time, and she is very chatty, and she wants to express her feelings, and she wants to talk about it very much, although she has said a lot to each other with her friends just now, but she naturally has different words for different people.
She turned sideways, expectantly ready to wait for the other party to reply, and then she could continue to say a few words, anyway, she already had the experience of the last time.
It's a pity that after Mingjing Nan sent it, he waited for a long time and didn't receive a reply from Chi Jingyuan, so he was so depressed that he could only pout and lie flat on the bed.
At this time, Ji Jingyuan had already returned to the gymnastics arena with the members, and as soon as the things were put down, the rehearsal continued, and the mobile phone glowed in the shoulder bag in the lounge, but no one cared.
The song and dance parts have been practiced many times and are very familiar, and now the main thing is to memorize all the processes and movements, especially the elevators, as well as the position and use of some equipment.
A concert is not just about singing a few songs, it's essential for the overall effect and interaction with the fans.
"Just change your clothes here, you won't be seen......"
Chi Jingyuan was a little worried, so he came out from behind the screen and observed.
There was a link in the middle of the concert, after singing a song, they did not transfer to the stage to change their costumes, but the venue staff pulled a long and wide screen up to block the stage, and everyone changed clothes directly behind the screen, and a live person changed clothes.
I don't know who designed it, of course, fans can't put it down, and it is conceivable that it will cause screams and cheers from the audience.
However, although it is not a full-body change like stripping, it is simply a change of jacket and pants, but the members themselves are actually quite embarrassed.
"Don't worry, it's definitely not, we've tested it specially, and we can only see a little shadow of the lake under the special lighting."
The field manager explained with a smile, and at the same time happily added: "Fans must like this link very much."
Nonsense, I went to the Girls' Generation concert, and I also wanted to have this kind of link, and I especially liked it.
Chi Jingyuan said a word in her heart after standing up, but she observed for a while, nodded and agreed with this statement.
"The location of the fireworks hole must be remembered clearly, there are several fireworks spraying settings in the middle, at that time you must pay attention to your own position, do not have any impromptu movement and action, so as not to get too close to be injured and have an accident."
"We'll put the gifts on the side of the stage, and when it's time to give them out, we can just pick them up."
"You still remember the position of the next interaction a few times, right? The areas assigned to each are different, so don't repeat them. ”
"Remember...... Wu Shixun: Where is your area? ”
"I'm here."
", this is the place I've assigned, you're on the sub-stage on the right, what are you doing......"
“……”
The on-site rehearsal was busy until two or three o'clock in the morning in the middle of the night before returning to the dormitory, although it was very late and hard, but to be honest, the members of EXO were very energetic, and everything was prepared with great interest and seriousness.
It's much more serious than the rehearsal of any singing show.
After all, concerts are where they can make a lot of money, and the income of the members is not serious, and with motivation, they are naturally full of vitality.
After returning to the dormitory, I rested for the night, and when I got up the next morning, I rushed directly to the scene to continue the rehearsal.
During the lunch meal, Chi Jingyuan took a few bites of bibimbap, blinked and suddenly remembered something, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and sent a message to Zhou Ziyu:
"Don't come tomorrow."
