Jiang Yao walked into the guest dressing room.

With Xi Lanxiao's signal, he closed the door behind him.

"Are you from 'Idol of Tomorrow'? I had a friend in last year's competition who also came from your studio..."

When Xi Lanxiao spoke, her brows and eyes were slightly raised, with a natural and kind smile.

It is not the semi-permanent commercial smile that is fixed on the face of idol stars after professional training-humans use different facial muscles when they smile real and fake, so they can be distinguished.

Xi Lanxiao is the kind of person who is kind to others and always has a little smile on her face.

Jiang Yao didn't quite understand why he let him in for tea.But Xi Lanxiao offered him some snacks, and he accepted them politely and thanked them.

Xi Lanxiao chatted with Jiang Yao about some things, and quickly brought the topic to Jiang Yao's mistakes in the performance just now.

"Don't worry, the first performance will not eliminate players, you still have a chance. But you have to be mentally prepared, although the official show may not show the complete performance of your group, it depends on the later stageHow to cut—but on the video platform, the audience can order everyone's performance."

Xi Lanxiao paused for a moment.As if to give Jiang Yao some time to understand, he waited until Jiang Yao nodded before continuing:

"If you are not popular, then this incident will not cause any splashes. At most, people will complain about it. Hahaha, it will pass after a while."

"But if you get good grades and get in the way of others..."

Xi Lanxiao sighed and shook her head, "Your company may not be able to protect you. On the contrary, there is a high probability that it will use the popularity of these public opinions to create exposure for you. Black and red are also red...so you have to be mentally prepared, don't be too burdened with thoughts. This is how the entertainment industry is..."

Jiang Yao: "..."

Don't know what to say.

He didn't intend to enter the entertainment industry at first, but what Xi Lanxiao said really cared about him as a junior and gave him advice.

So Jiang Yao said, "Thank you."

Xi Lanxiao froze for a moment, then bent her eyes slightly and smiled softly.

For some reason, there was a bit of bitterness in that smile.

"By the way, why did you run out from the stage halfway? Did you get lost?"

Xi Lanxiao seemed to have finally remembered that the bathroom was right at the entrance of the stage, so it was impossible to get lost and come to him.

But Xi Lanxiao didn't doubt it, but asked curiously, "What are you looking for?"

"Follow the tide and tell him you're looking for medicine."

The voice in my heart sounded.

Jiang Yao turned his gaze to the dressing table—the white medicine bottle of "Tangding" was placed on the table.Dense fonts crawled all over the labels.

"I'm looking for medicine." Jiang Yao pointed to the medicine bottle, "I can't find where I put the medicine."

Xi Lanxiao froze for a moment.

"Do you have diabetes?" Xi Lanxiao asked.

Jiang Yao nodded according to the instructions of the person in his heart.

Xi Lanxiao fell into a subtle silence.

"Can you give me a pill?" Jiang Yao slowly repeated what the person in his heart taught him, "I didn't have time to take the medicine in the morning, I feel... not very comfortable."

Xi Lanxiao frowned slightly, but soon relaxed.

He smiled gently at Jiang Yao, and reached for the medicine bottle on the table: "Okay, I'll share with you... How long will you be recording today? I remember the first recording will take a whole day, if you are unluckyMaybe you have to stay in the shed for more than 30 hours... Do you have a blood glucose meter? You'd better ask your agent to measure your blood sugar for you, and tell the rest of the program group about your physical condition..."

Xi Lanxiao looked around, found a clean little bag, and poured out a few pills from the medicine bottle.

White pills, round and small.It was the one that Jiang Yao had given to Sun Jiayu in the "Sweets Frenzy" incident.

Xi Lanxiao poured the pills carefully.

The movements are delicate and gentle, as if they are not pouring a piece of diabetes medicine that costs only a few cents, but precious medicinal materials worth thousands of gold.

His fingers were long and stretched, holding the medicine bottle firmly.

But the thumb is obliquely clasped on the mouth of the bottle.As if carefully controlling the angle at which the pills are poured out of the bottle.

"..."

Jiang Yao narrowed his eyes.

"Focus".

In slow motion, everything becomes clear and detailed.

Although the angle is limited, Jiang Yao can still see that the inside of the medicine bottle labeled "Tangding" in Xi Lanxiao's hand is actually divided into several small compartments.

It seems to have been modified in private - the outside is still the "Tangding" bottle, which anyone who takes this drug will recognize.

But there are several small compartments inside, containing pills of different colors and shapes.

As long as the mouth of the bottle is blocked, different types of tablets can be poured out through different angles.

It is the same as what Jiang Yao heard just now.

——He suddenly appeared in front of Xi Lanxiao just now, when Xi Lanxiao panicked and dropped the medicine bottle to the ground, Jiang Yao heard the sound of the medicine bottle hitting the floor and the tablets inside colliding.

Under the "focus" slow-motion lens, different types of pills collide with each other in the small grid, making several kinds of sounds with subtle differences.

Jiang Yao heard it all.

Naturally, Xi Lanxiao didn't know that her every move had been seen by the other party.

He poured out several pieces of "Tangding" from it, put them into a small bag, and handed them to Jiang Yao.

Compared with being cautious, his focused and cautious appearance is more like...

disgust.

It's not the dislike of Jiang Yao, but the drug.

Disgust for the bottle of medicine in his own hand that he was about to take a moment ago.

"Thank you." Jiang Yao took it, raised his eyes, and thanked him seriously.

"You're welcome, after all, you are a patient." Xi Lanxiao smiled softly.

He has no airs when he smiles, it's hard to imagine that this is an active top idol.

what's next?

Jiang Yao blinked slowly, waiting for the next instruction from the person in his heart.

"Next, ask him..."

However, before Jiang Yao could finish listening to the instructions in his heart, Xi Lanxiao suddenly spoke.

"Besides diabetes, do you have other...um..."

Xi Lanxiao asked hesitantly, with a cautious expression.

As a senior and a top-ranking active-duty trainee, Xi Lanxiao didn't have to be so careful about Jiang Yao—no, for a fledgling new trainee like "Qian Youyou".

But he still carefully considered his words and cared about the other party's emotions.

"...Other situations?" Xi Lanxiao finally chose such an expression.

Jiang Yao's expression gradually became puzzled.The eyelashes like crow feathers fluttered slowly, unable to understand the deep meaning in his words.

Xi Lanxiao looked at him.

After a long time, as if he had finally made up his mind, he asked him gently:

"Is it autism?"

Jiang Yao: "..."

I don't know how to answer.

"Don't answer first."

The person in my heart said.

"See what he has to say."

Jiang Yao's silence made Xi Lanxiao further confirm his guess.

Xi Lanxiao sighed, and said with sympathy and pity: "When I was young, I had a neighbor who was a little bit like you... I mean the feeling to me, not the appearance. You are like... people living in a glass cover? That's how it's said, right?"

Jiang Yao: "..."

Xi Lanxiao's expression was gentle and cautious, like walking in a flower bed for fear of stepping on the grass under her feet.

"Am I guessing right? If I'm wrong, I'm sorry, please don't take it to heart."

Jiang Yao: "..."

He felt no malice in this man.

No pollution, no mutation.No malice, no aggression.

As the name suggests, Xi Lanxiao is a gentle and beautiful person.

So Jiang Yao nodded: "Yes."

Xi Lanxiao let out a long sigh: "Sure enough."

Then he asked again, "Then why did you think of participating in the competition? Why did you want to be a trainee?"

Jiang Yao: "..."

"Say you like dancing."

Jiang Yao: "I like dancing."

"And singing."

Jiang Yao: "And singing."

Xi Lanxiao: "..."

Xi Lanxiao froze for a second, then burst out laughing.

"Yes, you dance very well. I saw it backstage just now. It's really good... It's a pity that I didn't hear you sing."

Xi Lanxiao asked again: "Where are your parents? They also support you as a trainee, will you make your debut?"

Jiang Yao shook his head.

Xi Lanxiao: "They don't agree?"

Jiang Yao: "They are gone."

Xi Lanxiao was stunned again.His brows furrowed.

After Jiang Yao answered, he was reminded by the person in his heart that he shouldn't have said that.

After all, now he is "Qian Youyou" instead of Jiang Yao.If Xi Lanxiao sent someone to investigate, his identity might be exposed.This answer is not appropriate.

But the words have been spoken and cannot be taken back.I can only find a way to get around.

Just when Jiang Yao wanted to explain, Xi Lanxiao suddenly raised his hand and held his shoulder.

"Qian Youyou." Xi Lanxiao's expression became serious, looking into his eyes, and asked seriously, "Tell me, who asked you to participate in the competition?"

Jiang Yao: "..."

Jiang Yao was still waiting for the person in his heart to tell him the standard answer, Xi Lanxiao looked at his confused and hesitant expression, but seemed to have realized something.

Xi Lanxiao sighed heavily.

"Have you really figured it out? The water in the entertainment industry is very deep... You are helpless, and... you have suffered from various diseases. It will be very hard for you to debut as a trainee, and it will be much harder than others.It's easy...to be bullied."

Xi Lanxiao stared at him steadfastly, holding his shoulders tightly with warm hands, Jiang Yao felt a deep and gentle strength.

"Do you want to think about it again? Before the show is officially broadcast, you still have a chance..."

Xi Lanxiao said.

Jiang Yao: "..."

He couldn't understand what Xi Lanxiao was saying.

"He's telling you to quit."

The person in my heart explained.

"He thinks that you will be bullied if you enter the entertainment industry, so he advises you to withdraw from the competition."

The person in my heart paused and sighed.

"This worry is not unreasonable. If it were me, I would stop you too."

Jiang Yao: "..."

Not sure how to react to this.

"Forget it, you go back first." Xi Lanxiao sighed, raised her watch to check the time, "If you don't go back, it's time for you over there."

Jiang Yao nodded and got up.

Xi Lanxiao personally sent him to the door.Before parting, Xi Lanxiao looked around cautiously, and after confirming that there was no one around, she said softly:

"Really, think about it again when you go back. Don't believe what the studio says...they are after all...they are just businessmen. They are not your relatives."

"Go back and think about it again."

Jiang Yao: "..."

The door of the dressing room for guests was closed in front of them.

The last thing Jiang Yao saw was Xi Lanxiao sitting back in front of the dressing table.

On the brightly lit dressing table, his gorgeous face was reflected in the mirror.

His expression was slumped, his eyes were lowered, and he silently played with the white medicine bottle in his hand.

There was a smile of bitterness or disgust at the corner of his mouth.

At the far end of the corridor, a make-up artist walked quickly carrying a large box.It seems that they are rushing to find Xi Lanxiao.

Jiang Yao lowered his head and silently walked past her.Hearing the door of the dressing room opened again behind him, the fashionable female makeup artist kept apologizing to the people inside at the door.

"Brother Lan Xiao, I'm sorry! The place is too big and I got lost...I'll remove your make-up right away!"

"It's okay, come in."

From the door came Xi Lanxiao's gentle voice as always, meticulous and considerate, as if in order to alleviate the other party's guilt, he added a sentence at the end:

"It's very big here and it's easy to get lost. I've been here for so long, and if no one guides me, I'll still go wrong."

"Hahaha, yes! As expected of [Original Soup], with a lot of money, they directly built such a large venue..."

The make-up artist smiled and entered the room.

The door of the guest dressing room was closed again.

In the corridor, Jiang Yao, who pretended to leave, stopped involuntarily, and looked back at the closed door.

"Qin Wuwei."

Jiang Yao said suddenly.

"Um."

The person in his heart understood what he meant and said in a low voice.

"He's also a good guy. Just like Qin Wuwei."

Jiang Yao looked at the door, and the picture he just saw in slow motion under "focus" appeared in front of his eyes.

——In Xi Lanxiao's medicine bottle, besides "Tangding", there are several other medicines.

One of them is called "Xatos".

It's a confusing word that you don't know how to pronounce.

So impressive too.

That's an oral anti-inflammatory drug.Aiming at the infection of contaminated wounds of the digestive tract, it also has a strong effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain.

Often used for anorectal trauma.

Jiang Yao stared at the closed door, his eyelashes blinking slowly.

A sour feeling welled up in my heart.He raised his hand and pressed his chest.

"I want to help him."

Jiang Yao said.

"good."

The person in my heart answered.

"Let's find a way to help him together."
