No, the next second, Qi Xingchen came to his senses and questioned himself:
If I don't want to die, why would I be addicted to a paper man?
He's just the male lead of a Mary Sue novel!
He's not the real Bai Ye!
How can I face my true idol?!
In order to avoid the media outside the door, the bodyguards escorted Bai Ye and walked very fast. They were almost out of sight.
Qi Xingchen secretly clenched his fists at the tall and well-proportioned figure.
The road ahead was long and far. To be able to charm him, this male lead was not easy to deal with.
The main point of view of "Peaches of the Night" was the female lead. It mainly described everything that happened to the female lead. Only when the plot required it would the scene change to other people.
Therefore, the plot of Bai Ye returning to the company was not written in the book. Qi Xingchen did not know why he came back. He first went to the dance practice room with Han Qing.
He stretched his tendons for half an hour and tried to bend and do the splits.
The original owner of the body had learned vocal music and dance. He had a foundation, but he had not practiced for a long time. Moreover, he was spoiled since he was young and could not bear hardships, so his basic skills were not very solid.
He was flexible enough. If he practiced for a few more days, he could almost pick up the acrobatic skills he had in real life.
Qi Xingchen was practicing when Han Qing, who came back with water, opened her mouth wide. "Xing Xing, are you trying to scare me? You almost broke in half just now!"
"…" Qi Xingchen had never heard such a description. He said perfunctorily, "I haven't practiced for a long time. I stretched my tendons."
Don't you want to be an actor? "
Han Qing muttered and trotted over mysteriously. "Xing Xing, guess what I just heard."
"Something to do with the meeting?"
"Have you been doing brain modification these days?!
Yes, I heard that the company got Bai Ye a hot variety show. "
Qi Xingchen asked, "Flying guest?"
"No, a regular guest." Han Qing paused. "You know, with Bai Ye's status, it's not easy to invite him to a variety show. I guess the contract should be filled."
Whether it was in reality or in the book, Bai Ye basically did not accept any variety shows other than CCTV.
Even if he did accept, he would at most be a flying guest.
For Bai Ye have enough popularity and he didn't need to rely on variety shows to increase his popularity.
What Han Qing said was a common tactic used by entertainment companies. "Didn't you want to invite my big shot?
Not only do you have to pay, you to's, but you also have to package an artist from our company. "
To put it bluntly, it was a buy-one-get-one-free deal, allowing the other person to ride on the hype.
This opportunity.......... the new to the new to to the new..
The persona of a second or third-rate actor was already set, so it wouldn't have much of an effect.
Qi Xingchen felt a bit strange. According to the plot line of "Peaches of the Night", Bai Ye should be resting now. He even met the female lead in the restaurant. How could he be on a variety show?
"Follow the company's arrangement." Qi Xingchen shook his head and opened the dance video. "Qing, can you show me this part?"
They practiced for the whole afternoon. Han Qing's house was far from the company. After changing in the dressing room, he had to say goodbye to Qi Xingchen. "I'm going to catch the last bus. Xing Xing, you go back early too."
"Okay," Qi Xingchen replied. "See you tomorrow."
Han Qing said a few more words before leaving. Qi Xingchen finally finished dealing with him. He sat down against the wall and shook the sweat off his head.
His basic skills were weak. After dancing for so long, he couldn't even get the chorus of a dance.
If he wanted to get close to the male and female leads, he definitely couldn't do it.
Qi Xingchen looked at the time. It was past nine in the evening. He drank half a bottle of water and prepared to practice for a while.
If he didn't master the chorus of this dance today, he wouldn't leave.
"One, two, three, four …"
Qi Xingchen continued to practice in front of the mirror.
At ten in the evening, the last artist left the music room. The vocal training area was completely dark.
At eleven in the evening, the artists in the dance practice room also went home.
The guard came to take a look and turned off the lights in the other practice rooms. Only Qi Xingchen's light was left on.
In order to get some fresh air, he opened the door of the practice room a little. A ray of light poured out and the sound of the rhythm was very obvious in the dark and quiet corridor.
Bai Ye had just come out of his music room when he noticed the noise.
He followed the sound and stopped outside the door.
Twenty minutes went by, forty minutes went by …
Qi Xingchen didn't seem to be tired until a male voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts. "Kid, you can't practice like this."
The voice was low and magnetic with a hint of laziness. The moment it entered his ears, Qi Xingchen's head almost exploded!
What the f * ck … Wasn't this his idol's voice?!
He was stunned for two minutes before he turned around stiffly.
The first thing he saw was a pair of long legs. Then he looked up and saw Bai Ye with his cap pulled low. He was leaning against the door lazily with his arms crossed.
"The position of the force is wrong. It's useless no matter how much you practice." Bai Ye raised his chin. "Don't look at me. Play the music again and dance from beginning to end."
Qi Xingchen turned back stiffly. His mind was blank.
He lowered his head and patted his face, blinking hard. It was the first time he saw his idol alone. Even if it was fake, he was still caught off guard.
There were mirrors on both sides of the practice room. Bai Ye snorted when he saw all these small movements.
Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long. Qi Xingchen finally came back to his senses and started dancing.
In the first half of the dance, Qi Xingchen felt like a primary school student being stared at from the back window by his teacher. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either.
In the second half, Bai Ye found the problem and walked to him with his arms crossed.
He rolled up the script in his hand and hit him on the waist.
"The position of the waist is wrong."
When Qi Xingchen moved his legs, Bai Ye hit him on the outside of his thigh. "The position of the leg is wrong. The thigh should drive the calf."
Being hit by his idol, Qi Xingchen could only grit his teeth and bear it.
By the time the dance was over, Qi Xingchen had been hit all over except for his neck.
It was raining heavily that day. It was even heavier than the day Yiping was whipped by her father.
Bai Ye looked at Qi Xingchen, who was standing straight in front of him with his eyelids down. "… Do you remember what I said just now?"
Qi Xingchen tried to exert force according to Bai Ye's instructions. This time, he didn't get hit.
But from the corner of his eyes, he could see that Bai Ye wasn't satisfied.
Acrobatics and dancing had different ways of exerting force. Qi Xingchen had been learning acrobatics since he was five years old. He was so familiar with it that it was hard to change it.
He knew his shortcomings. It was no wonder that Bai Ye was dissatisfied. He scratched his sweat-soaked bangs.
"Is this right?" He did it again slowly.
Bai Ye wasn't good at teaching people. Just now, he was thinking about how to say it.
He didn't expect this person to break down the movements himself. And the effect was better than the last time. He could see that this person was really using his brain.
He finally took a closer look at him. After the teenager scratched his bangs, he could see his whole face. It was not much bigger than a palm.
He had single eyelids, a high nose bridge, and a small chin. He looked very clean and fresh.
His skin was white and delicate. There were no pores. He was born to be a star.
The kind that God would reward him with a living.
With this kind of appearance, he could become famous as an actress. Why did he have to suffer as a singer?
Bai Ye didn't ask. He wasn't the kind of person who liked to poke his nose into other people's business.
"It's about time. Come on." Bai Ye put his hand on Qi Xingchen's waist. "Follow my hand and slowly twist your waist."
Qi Xingchen only felt that all the blood in his body was rushing to the place where they touched. It was very hot.
Especially when Bai Ye was a little closer to him. A faint cold fragrance tickled his nose, making him unable to concentrate.
He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He felt the strength of Bai Ye's hand little by little.
The results were very obvious. After two tries, Qi Xingchen was already 80% or 90% able to do what he wanted.
"Is the leg like this too?" Qi Xingchen did the leg movements very slowly.
"Good comprehension." Bai Ye nodded in surprise.
With Bai Ye's guidance, Qi Xingchen quickly learned the dance.
When he returned home with wet clothes, it was already two o 'clock in the morning.
He thought that the Qi family should be asleep, but he found that the living room was still lit.
Qi Yunxiao, the older brother of the original owner, was sitting in the living room reading documents when he woke up.
The reason why Qi Xingchen came home so late was that he wanted to learn how to dance and to reduce contact with the Qi family.
He didn't have any relatives since he was young. Now that a bunch of people suddenly appeared and treated him well, he was very uncomfortable.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Qi Yunxiao put down the documents and revealed a mature man's face. "Xing Xing, you're back. Go wash up and sleep."
Qi Xingchen braced himself and said, "You still want to wait a little longer?"
"Seeing that you're back safely." Qi Yunxiao rubbed his forehead. "I'm going to sleep too."
The original owner had told his family that he was not allowed to appear near Nuoya to prevent his identity from being exposed.
Probably because of this, Qi Yunxiao didn't dare to rush to Nuoya to pick him up. He could only wait at home.
Also, Qi Yunxiao didn't ask where he went or what he did. He was different from the other controlling family members. It was obvious that he respected his younger brother very much.
Qi Xingchen had mixed feelings. He whispered "Good night" and went upstairs to his room.
After sweating all day in the practice room, he slept very well that night.
The next day, he happened to run into Han Qing at the entrance of the company.
There were many people squatting on both sides of Nuoya's revolving door, both men and women.
They were holding long wooden cannons in their hands and most of them had dark circles under their eyes. It was obvious that they were paparazzi.
Han Qing had participated in a talent show on a video platform before but was eliminated early. She didn't have many fans and was no different from a trainee.
The original owner only appeared in online dramas and didn't get any roles after that. It was almost like "no one has found this person".
It was self-evident who these people were waiting for.
Han Qing clicked her tongue. "Xing Xing, when can I be like Senior Bai Ye and have so many fans waiting for me?"
"It's not necessarily a good thing to have many fans. The cameras will keep pointing at your face. It's okay for a day or two, but you'll be annoyed after a long time."
Han Qing agreed. "Xing Xing, if you really become popular in the future, what will you do in such a situation?"
The media had asked Bai Ye the same question before. Qi Xingchen thought of his idol and smiled. "Since you enjoy the benefits of popularity, you have to bear the pain it brings."
Han Qing looked at Qi Xingchen in surprise. The two of them walked to the elevator. The three elevators were running.
While waiting for the elevator, Han Qing whispered, "Xing Xing, do you remember what I told you yesterday?"
"According to reliable sources, the variety show should be 'Traveling Together'. The guest lineup will be announced in a few days."
Qi Xingchen's heart thumped.
The male and female protagonists met in this variety show!
At the same time, under Qi Yuji's operation, Zhou Yu would receive the benefits brought by Bai Ye and fall in love with the female lead during the recording of the show. This would make Qi Yuji completely evil!
… But the original variety show should be announced in half a month. Why was it brought forward?
If the news was true, then his death was equivalent to pressing the "fast forward" button. It wouldn't be long before he appeared on the tombstone!
"Xing Xing, stand still. Senior Bai Ye is here."
While he was still in disbelief, Han Qing elbowed him and brought him back to reality.
Qi Xingchen took a deep breath and began to think of a solution.
From afar, Bai Ye was still in the same formation as yesterday. He escaped the clutches of the fans and paparazzi at the door and walked toward the elevator.
"Senior Bai Ye is getting more and more handsome. If he's in a variety show, the others will be useless in comparison …" Han Qing said, "Xing Xing, the other spot will definitely be fought over. Guess who will get it in the end."
Qi Xingchen said, "I can't guess, but I want to try."
"… Really?" Han Qing was surprised. "Aren't you not interested in variety shows?"
Qi Xingchen's mind raced as he calculated the time it would take for Bai Ye to walk over. Then, he said in a low voice that was 30% sad and 70% emotional, "Because I'm a fan of Bai Ye."
"…" Han Qing was completely confused.
Bai Ye, who was about to reach the elevator, heard this sentence. "???"
