In fact, Qi Xingchen was not very afraid. The thing appeared so suddenly that he was not mentally prepared.
But the next moment, when he felt the warmth on his back through his clothes and the warm touch on his eyes, he deliberately paused for more than ten seconds to fight for his face. "I'm not afraid."
"Well, you're not afraid," Bai Ye was quite cooperative. "Then should I take my hand off now?"
"… You're too long-winded. It's not that I'm timid. If Stallone saw such a thing, he would be scared too."
Bai Ye put down his hand, and Qi Xingchen gently broke free.
With psychological preparation, he was indeed calmer when he looked at the shark again.
He touched his back and felt the residual warmth that had not yet dissipated. He was even grateful to Brother Shark.
… Wait for me to give you dried fish tomorrow.
After visiting the marine life exhibition hall, he took Bai Ye to the Petrification Hall.
Only these two halls in Baisha Harbor were suitable for adults to visit. The rest were all for children.
It was not easy to bring Bai Ye to his own place. Qi Xingchen did not want to leave in a hurry. He had an idea. "Let's go see the jellyfish. Jellyfish don't sleep at night!"
Bai Ye was skeptical. "Really?"
"They really don't sleep," Qi Xingchen affirmed.
Anyway, jellyfish did not have eyes. He could not tell if they slept or not.
He took Bai Ye to the entrance of the aquarium as he spoke.
Outside the door, Bai Ye found that his hands had been in his trouser pockets.
He usually did not walk like this. He guessed that the wind had blown through now.
Bai Ye took off his coat and threw it to him.
Qi Xingchen quickly refused. "… I'm not cold. You wear it."
"It's okay. I brought it for you."
"Oh, so it's like this …"
Qi Xingchen put on the coat, lowered his head, pursed his lips, restrained his smile, and raised his head again. "You've been wearing it. I thought you were cold."
"I'm wearing thicker clothes," Bai Ye paused. "Take off my coat and give it to you. It should be warmer."
Hearing this, Qi Xingchen belatedly realized that he wasn't cold anymore.
Because the jacket had already been warmed by the other party.
"Thank, thank you. I'll open the door of the aquarium first."
Before he could finish his sentence, he ran off.
Seeing that no one was chasing after him, he covered his face and grinned foolishly for two minutes.
His smile froze. When Bai Ye was almost behind him, he rubbed his numb cheeks and unlocked the door.
The jellyfish base was located in a long corridor not far from the entrance. Qi Xingchen turned on the light control valve, and dozens of transparent glass cylinders flashed with a blue-purple halo.
There were tall and short pillars, thick and thin pillars. The thickest one was so thick that two people couldn't wrap their arms around it.
Inside the pillar, large and small jellyfish swam along the light. They didn't know whether it was insomnia or they were awakened in the middle of their sleep. They curiously looked at the two uninvited guests.
Unlike the large number of tourists visiting during the day, the empty corridor seemed to be a kaleidoscope opened solely for them.
Through the blurred halo, the jellyfish wantonly showed their soft beauty and vigorous vitality.
The two just looked at them for a while.
Until they walked through the entire corridor side by side, Qi Xingchen put his hand on the wall and asked for advice. "Stay a little longer, or go to the next place?"
"Stay a little longer."
Bai Ye suddenly remembered something. "Did Dongcheng contact you?"
Qi Xingchen was stunned and then reacted. Bai Ye was the founder of "My Time", similar to the chief mentor, in the core position of the entire variety show. Naturally, he knew who the other members of the program group were.
"Yes, sister An Ran told me the day before yesterday."
Bai Ye said, "Yes," "Xing Guang's observer. There are risks and benefits. Think carefully before you make a decision."
When he heard from the deputy manager of Dongcheng, he knew that it was not easy to be Xing Guang's observer.
He recommended the little fan just to help the little fan fight for the opportunity.
In the end, it was up to the little fan to decide whether to go or not.
Qi Xingchen said, "I've already decided. I'll go."
Bai Ye raised his eyebrows. Qi Xingchen continued, "sister An Ran and I have analyzed the risks of participating in the show. It's nothing more than being laughed at by the whole Internet.
But — "
He raised his snow-white chin and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. His eyes poured out from the slits of his eyelashes, three parts stubbornness and seven parts arrogance.
"But who says I'll definitely fail?
I admit that I'm not good enough, but I still have a lot of time to polish myself and improve myself. "
I'll bring a better version of myself to meet the audience.
"Okay." Bai Ye's eyes fell on the shallow wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. After a moment, he smiled and said, "I look forward to seeing a better version of you."
.
The two of them went for a spin at the beach again. When they returned to the gate, Qi Xingchen couldn't help but feel regretful. "I was going to treat you to some fun, but you didn't go to any of the interesting places."
"It's okay." Bai Ye comforted him. "I'll look for you again when I have the chance."
Qi Xingchen especially liked to hear Bai Ye say things like "you'll treat me next time" and "I'll look for you again when I have the chance". He couldn't help but grin.
Fortunately, he held back. He bit his lower lip and always remembered to ask for money. "That … Did you forget something?"
For example, the gift you promised me.
"I didn't forget. Come with me to the car to get it."
In order to prevent paparazzi, Bai Ye's driver parked the car in the boss's special garage.
Qi Xingchen followed behind Bai Ye and kept wondering what Bai Ye would give him.
In his entire life, he had never had such an urgent expectation and desire for any worldly possessions.
Stepping into the garage and opening the door, Bai Ye took out a simple shopping bag from the back seat.
Qi Xingchen thought he was buying skincare products or small accessories.
When he opened the bag and saw the contents, his heart almost jumped out of his throat!
It was an album and two rolled-up posters!
"You're the first fan in the world to get my new album," Bai Ye joked. "I don't even have one myself."
Qi Xingchen couldn't wait to unfold the poster. The man's sharp profile immediately appeared in front of him.
In front of the person in question, he was too embarrassed to look at it carefully. He smoothed out the corners bit by bit and carefully rolled it up. Then, he took out the album and looked at it in the palm of his hand. He couldn't put it down.
Oh my god!
He was the first person in the world to get his idol's album!
Was he shot by the arrow of the God of Luck?
What did he do to become God's favorite?
"… Okay." Looking at his happy face, Bai Ye couldn't help but laugh. "It's late. Go back and rest."
"Okay, you should rest early too." Qi Xingchen reluctantly put away the gift and said goodbye to Bai Ye.
Back at the Qi family, the first thing Qi Xingchen did was to tell An Ran that he had decided to participate in "My Time". He also asked her to contact Chen Nuoya and arrange for the company's best dance teacher, vocal music teacher, and performance teacher to tutor him.
The second thing was to take out the album and posters and look at them repeatedly for a long time.
Then, he went to the bookcase to clear out a place with good feng shui to store the album.
Yes, the idol's album was for collection. Who would be willing to open it and listen to it!
.
That night, Qi Xingchen had a good sleep.
At eight o 'clock the next morning, An Ran yawned and walked into Nuoya's practice room. He was lying on the ground drawing a form.
"Xing Xing, you're here so early … What are you doing?"
Qi Xingchen sat up and shook the paper in his hand. "Arranging the class schedule."
An Ran tilted her head and read, "The first vocal music class is from seven o 'clock in the morning to eleven thirty in the morning. The second performance class is from one o' clock in the afternoon to five o 'clock in the afternoon. The third dance class is from five thirty in the afternoon to ten thirty in the evening … Xing Xing, your class schedule is a bit unreasonable."
"Is it affecting the teacher's life?"
"That's not it …" An Ran frowned. "I discussed with the teachers yesterday. They all said that they were willing to cooperate with your schedule.
And each class is only four or five hours. The teachers won't be very tired … But you are tired! "
An Ran spat. "From seven o 'clock in the morning to ten thirty in the evening, even if you rest for an hour and a half, you still have to maintain a high intensity of study for fourteen hours. Can you stand it?"
"It's nothing. As long as it doesn't affect the teachers."
Qi Xingchen ignored An Ran's yelling. In his mind, a problem that could be solved through hard work was not a problem at all.
He took back the class schedule and added two more sections: Morning self-study from 6: 00 to 7: 00, evening self-study from 22: 30 to 23: 30.
An Ran looked at him and her eyes changed from distressed to frightened.
Because the class schedule was just released, he didn't inform the teachers in advance. The first vocal music class was delayed to nine thirty.
At nine o 'clock, Qi Xingchen finished two dances and accidentally saw a familiar face.
Han Qing, the original owner's only friend in the company and also his first friend after transmigrating into the Peaches of the Night, passed by the practice room with her bag.
"Little Qing!"
He hurried out and called out to Han Qing.
Han Qing was surprised to see him. "Xing Xing, you're back."
"I'm back.
Come in. I was just looking for you. "
Because Qi Xingchen's classes were very intensive, Chen Nuoya specially prepared a multi-purpose practice room for him.
Hearing this, Han Qing walked in with his hands and feet tied and stood a meter away from Qi Xingchen.
It was normal for people to come and go in the entertainment industry. One of their friends might become popular one day.
Over time, the two people's situations and knowledge would be different. It would be difficult for them to continue being friends.
Therefore, since Qi Xingchen became a frequent guest on the hot search list, Han Qing took the initiative to withdraw from his social circle so that they wouldn't be embarrassed in the end.
He didn't expect that Qi Xingchen would stop him today.
Han Qing said, "Xing Xing, when did you come back to the company?"
"I just came back this morning."
Qi Xingchen guessed what he was thinking. Without further ado, he said directly, "Little Qing, did you know that My Time gave Nuoya a lot of places to participate in the competition?"
"Yes, I gave you five."
"Are you in it?"
"I've reported the information." Han Qing told him everything. "But I can't guess who the company will choose in the end."
Han Qing's professional skills were good and he had a kind nature. Qi Xingchen had always wanted to help him.
During the most confused period when he transmigrated, Han Qing had practiced with him and joked with him.
No matter what Han Qing thought, Han Qing was still one of his important friends.
Qi Xingchen said with certainty, "The company will definitely choose you. There are still five weeks before the first recording. You must practice well."
"… I'll practice well." Han Qing didn't understand.
"Before the recording, I'll also be teaching in this practice room. You can come and listen when you're free."
"Really?"
It was difficult for undervalued trainees to meet good teachers. Han Qing was very excited. "That's great. Thank you, Xing Xing!"
