Chapter 45 "Who Helped You?"

A large cloud of turbid clouds pressed down on the sea in the distance, and the calls with poor signal fell into silence again.

The two stayed silent for a while, then Sui Yi said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Bai."

"Um."

"Tell me." Sui Yi asked earnestly, "Speak again."

"What?" Bai Yan asked.

"It's fine." Sui Yi touched her nose, "I didn't hear your voice, I felt a little uneasy."

Bai Yan suddenly understood something, as if the stupid student suddenly became wise, and said nonsense slowly: "I'm in Qinhuangdao."

Sui Yi smiled silently in front of the vanity mirror.

"I participated in the audition in Qinhuangdao." Bai Yan said, feeling amused, and said with a smile, "If you want to listen to me, you can watch the show on Northern TV. If you want to watch me, you can come to Qinhuangdao."

Sui Yi's very light laughter came from the phone, Bai Yan waited for a while, and heard him say yes.

"Go back to the dormitory." Sui Yi had the illusion of smelling Bai Yan's breath, "It's cold outside."

Bai Yan lowered his head and looked at the dark floor of the rooftop, as if he was reluctant, and he said it after a while.

The cold wind got in through the gap in the neckline, Bai Yan was shivering from the cold, and his brain, which was almost strained by training and reality show books, finally relaxed, and he missed Suiyi a little late.

The executive director pulled up a chat group with only finalists, and threw information about the fan meeting into it in the middle of the night.

The top 20 players will all participate in the fan meeting before the final, which will be arranged in a certain business district in Beijing.

The eliminated players and the advanced players seemed unhappy, the dormitory area was lifeless, and the sound of one after another news was like the sound of gunshots in the game, which was disturbing to hear.

Bai Yan read more than a dozen pages of the event process before opening other news. Yuan Yuan sent him a long message, first congratulating him on entering the finals, and then euphemistically saying some online discussions about him and Suiyi. He has to pay attention.

"I don't feel like a good person." Yuan Yuan concluded, Bai Yan read the news at a glance, and opened the forum that had been lively since yesterday morning.

The content about "being filmed" and "male male" in the forum has disappeared. Most of the fans are discussing the finals list and the content of the third performance. Those posts don't seem to exist.

Bai Yan pursed his lips and turned over several pages. After confirming that there was nothing, he completely relaxed. During this period, he also saw a few posts discussing himself.

Most of them complained that he went too smoothly, he must have signed a big company, who the sponsor is so strong, and so on.

Bai Yan doesn't care about his negative comments, but every time he sees someone discussing who the gold master behind him is in the comments, his heart throbs inexplicably. He didn't say anything in the forum, but he always has An illusion of being ripped apart.

The lights in the dormitory area went out on time, and every bed that was not emptied showed a bright screen light. Bai Yan moved lightly, as if someone would find something if the movement was louder.

He clearly realized that his state of mind was called a guilty conscience, then he lay down on his side, covered the screen of his mobile phone with his back, and hesitantly sent Suiyi good night before putting the phone back under the pillow.

After a while, Sui Yi replied, "Good night."

Xiao Chen ordered lunch for Suiyi's suite before rushing back to Shanghai, and then arrived at the hotel with Ji Zhen at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Sui Yi was sitting on the sofa very relaxed. Half of the lunch in front of her was eaten. The TV wall opposite was showing the past review of only 2019. A group of players were chatting, so it was very lively.

Ji Zhen directly swiped her card to enter the door, and sat down neatly on the chair in front of him.

"How is the chef here?" She squeezed a piece of dim sum with her hand and asked after taking a bite.

Sui Yi wanted to look at her with a smile and said, "It's okay."

"Well, you can stay here next time." Ji Zhen nodded approvingly, with a relaxed tone.

"Finished?" Sui Yi smiled, "So soon this time."

Ji Zhen picked up a tissue and wiped her mouth, and said, "You know these people, they can't get a result after half a year of research on spending money, and the door will open before I arrive when it comes to sending money."

Xiao Chen stood on the side with a stiff expression watching the two of them go back and forth, and said slowly, "Then Sister Zhen... I'll go out and wait for you first?"

"It's alright." Sui Yi immediately answered for her, "Sit down."

Ji Zhen adjusted her glasses, looked at him for a while, and sighed.

"Don't be so heavy." Sui Yi tilted her head, put her elbows on the armrest of the sofa, and looked at her with her chin on her back.

"Suiyi, we've known each other for so long, this time I really tried my best." Ji Zhen foreshadowed a few words before continuing: "The north side has already dealt with the surveillance, but they have other conditions, let's go For three TV dramas in half a year, they want Nanzhu to be the first investor."

Sui Yi frowned slightly and said, "You agreed?"

"Can you not agree?" Ji Zhen's tone was tired, and she gave him a reproachful look.

"How much do you want to invest?" Sui Yi asked.

Ji Zhen looked at him, hesitated for a while, and said, "If there are three divisions, it will be two or three hundred million, but this Qian Nanzhu will come out."

Sui Yi raised her eyebrows with an unexpected look on her face.

"...But the board of directors asked you to sell your shares." Ji Zhen continued, with a calm expression: "They got the hard drive before me, so I have no choice."

Sui Yi smiled softly, still not paying much attention: "Alright."

"I have fought with them. If you want to sell your shares, you must cancel the contract." Ji Zhen's speech became faster, "They still want to take back your shares."

Sui Yi shrugged and said nothing.

Ji Zhen felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that he didn't respond, and his face became a little ugly: "These people have so many companies in their hands, they have to stare at a Nanzhu, and they have your things in their hands, and they plan to sell more than anyone else..."

"That's it." Sui Yi cut off her words, "There won't be any problems with Bai Yan, right?"

Ji Zhen was stunned for a while, then shook her head, her voice softened: "He is just an ordinary player, no one will embarrass him."

Xiao Chen stood aside leaning against the dining table, and his expression became solemn, as if it was difficult to accept.

Sui Yi was a little helpless by their expressions, she changed the topic, turned her head and asked Xiao Chen, "How is the police station?"

"Ah?" Xiao Chen stood up straight and looked at Suiyi: "Oh, he was just a fan who was tricked by scalpers. It's been dealt with."

"Okay." Sui Yi's tone was very light, she raised her eyes and asked, "When is the board going to sign the transfer letter with me?"

The players who were eliminated in the semi-finals were sent to the airport by a bus at the same time. There were fewer and fewer players in the studio, but more and more fans and media were close to the gate of the studio.

Bai Yan stood in the hall with the rest of the players, saying goodbye to the eliminated players as if they were graduating from high school.

The dozen or so people who were eliminated were unexpectedly calm, with a calm expression and even a sense of relief.

Most of the dance group was eliminated, and they went up to hug the captain one by one. Li Xiujie rubbed everyone's head like a big dog.

The youngest player touched his head by him, and suddenly hugged him again as if he was about to cry.

Bai Yan stood beside Li Xiujie, a little helpless, as if adapting to this kind of game etiquette, and opened his arms to the minor in front of him.

The other party looked at him and put away the mourning expression. Yu Guang didn't leave Bai Yan behind, turned around and dragged the box away.

Bai Yan's thin arms were stuck in the air, as if embracing an invisible and somewhat awkward sphere.

"Be careful on the road." Li Xiujie glanced at Bai Yan, and pushed several dancers into the car.

The bus started making a lot of noise, and the butt of the car was facing the studio, leaving unpleasant exhaust fumes.

"Let's go." Li Xiujie touched Bai Yan's shoulder and motioned him to go back.

The dormitory with only 20 people left looked a bit desolate. Bai Yan slept in the inner position, and the ten-meter beds around him were already clean, giving him an inexplicable feeling of an island.

Li Xiujie carried a packed shoulder bag and walked silently to his side.

"...What's the matter?" An abrupt shadow appeared in front of him, and Bai Yan raised his head.

"Are you ready? Let's go together." Li Xiujie glanced at his luggage, "I see that the car is already at the door, and the director should come over and call us to Beijing."

"Okay, thank you." Bai Yan lowered his head and stuffed the change of clothes into the duffel bag issued by the program crew.

Li Xiujie leaned on the canopy bed opposite, not intending to leave.

"I may have a while." Bai Yan stared down at the duffel bag, conveying the attitude of chasing people euphemistically.

"It's okay, I'll wait for you." Li Xiujie stood still.

Bai Yan was a little helpless, so he packed up slowly and then stood up: "Let's go."

Several trees along the corridor leading to the parking lot in the dormitory area are already full of new shoots, and the green dots are dotted in the gray studio base, which actually has a taste of summer.

"I'm sorry about the re-choreography before." Li Xiujie's lips moved slightly, and he suddenly said.

Bai Yan glanced at him inexplicably.

Li Xiujie said something, but he hesitated: "Actually, I'm only one year younger than you, and I can understand your feelings."

"...It's okay, this is my own problem." Bai Yan changed his hand to carry the bag, keeping a distance from him.

"It's been a long time since I debuted, and I can't see any hope. It's hard." Li Xiujie said, as if telling himself: "I know you are the same as me, but I have no ability, so I can't help you."

Bai Yan felt that the more he talked, the more outrageous he was, so he interrupted him in time: "It's not so exaggerated, you have helped me a lot, thank you very much."

Li Xiujie looked at him and asked after a while, "How did you finally get Jane Anne to choreograph again?"

Bai Yan was stunned, but did not respond.

"Who helped you?" Li Xiujie hesitated, "It's not Suiyi, is it?"

Bai Yan's eyelids jumped, and he answered him quickly, "Of course not."

Li Xiujie didn't answer, just smiled while walking.

"I'm begging the executive director." Bai Yan explained with a very unfamiliar word.

"So that's the case." Li Xiujie walked forward with his head lowered, "Then you have someone who has been helping you all the time."

Bai Yan looked at him for a while, thinking about how to open the page, and after half a minute said, "Of course, you have it too."

I don’t know when a few surveillance cameras were added in the corridor. When people walk past, a beeping sound will sound, and then the green running light will light up, and the machine will enter the working mode.

"I have it too, but maybe it's different from you." Li Xiujie entered an unusual tone, "I always feel that the person helping you is very capable and can do a lot for you."

Bai Yan stopped, his expression became a little wary, looked at him and said, "You can speak directly if you have something to say."

Li Xiujie also stood up, a little helpless: "Just chat casually."

"You can talk to someone else." Various comments in the forum flashed through Bai Yan's mind, "I don't really want to chat."

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the staff passing by on the side looked at him frequently.

Li Xiujie made a gesture of surrender, and walked forward quickly and cooperatively, leaving Bai Yan behind.

"Are you all here?" The executive director carried a backpack that was taller than himself, and nodded from the co-pilot's seat, "I'll confirm the process of tomorrow's activities for everyone in a while, if there is anything unclear, definitely, definitely , you must ask me first, okay?" The executive director emphasized, "Don't run to ask the agent again, understand?"

The people in the bus nodded one after another.

Bai Yan sat in the last row holding the book, looking down at the process, his neck was slightly sore.

Sitting down lightly beside him, he subconsciously frowned and raised his head to reject Li Xiujie's gossip invitation again.

Yi Shengqing looked at him with a smile, and his voice was very soft: "Brother Bai, is there no one here?"

Bai Yan paused and shook his head.

"Then I'll sit here." Yi Shengqing put away the duffel bag and picked up the book like a white banquet.

Bai Yan glanced at him secretly, remembering the only card from a few days ago, and could not guess what Yi Shengqing meant, but the uncertainty and haze when we met in the corridor last time seemed to have been swept away. The debut candidates are back to the comfortable and relaxed look they used to be when they first met.

"Brother Bai, who is your red carpet representative?" Yi Shengqing asked him, pointing to the process in the book.

The backers of the top 20 players will arrange for a red carpet representative to go to the fan meeting and walk with the players on the red carpet with petal rain. The link is called walking the flower road.

Bai Yan looked at the process design and felt a chill in his heart.

"Why does this feel like getting married?" Yi Shengqing also felt that something was wrong, showing a disgusting expression: "How will the red carpet representatives be chosen, so embarrassing..."

After Yi Shengqing finished speaking, Bai Yan glanced at the renderings on the book, and saw a bit of the meaning of the wedding scene, probably because the program team collected suggestions from the audience, and chose to do what they liked.

He glanced at it, and his thoughts flew wildly, if Sui Yi was there.

Bai Yan was taken aback by his own thoughts, facing Yi Shengqing's surprised eyes, raised his hand and knocked on his head, and then sent a message to Yuan Yuan with red ears: "Yuan Yuan, at the meeting tomorrow, my red carpet representative who is it?"

Yuan Yuan replied almost immediately: "Ah, you are already rehearsing? It's me, who else would I be, and I can't come back if I go abroad."
