Chasing Tides

Ning Lan's motivation is actually very simple. He is about to make his debut soon. He wants to change his face and start a new life. Since time does not allow him to cut bones and embed thread, he should get a mole to prove that he is different from before.

He is eager to get rid of the self who is unable to resist fate, and hopes to embark on a new life from now on.

Although he subconsciously didn't hold out any hope.

He thought that in the entertainment industry where plastic surgery is a routine, this little trick is not a big deal, but he didn't expect that the next day, everyone who saw him showed expressions of swallowing eggs.

When he woke up, Gu Chenkai stared at him for a long while, and then "cut" to express his disdain; Gao Ming met him in the bathroom, bit his toothbrush in his mouth and looked at him in the mirror, and said something incomprehensible; Wang Bingyang was even more exaggerated, holding his face in pain: "Brother Lan, why can't you think about it?"

Ning Lan asked him what he meant, and he pressed his mole and said, "Isn't this location a tear mole? It's unlucky."

On the way to the company, Ning Lan searched the Internet, and enjoyed watching it, thinking that my mole is not real, and I am still a "lonely star"?

Come if you have one.

The company sent a 9-seater commercial vehicle to take them to the filming studio. Not long after the seven of them were seated, assistant An Lin also came up.

Wang Bingyang asked: "Sister An'an, aren't you our life assistant? Are you following me at work?"

An Lin opened her large canvas bag, took a few bottles of water from it, and gave each of the members and the driver a bottle: "I'm a life assistant outside work, and an administrative assistant inside work. Do you have any comments?"

The boys smiled and shook their heads.

Ning Lan said: "Then you have to ask the company to raise your wages." He took An Lin's mineral water and helped her open the lid before returning it.

An Lin took it with a smile, took a sip of water and said, "I think so too... What's wrong with your face?"

Hearing her surprise, the driver also turned his head to look.

Ning Lan was surrounded by people she knew all morning, and Zhang Fan scolded her when she got together in the meeting room, saying that she had to tell her if she wanted to make a move in the future.

At this time, he was used to the fuss of the crowd, and said: "It's just a little black, those who don't know think I have changed my head."

An Lin leaned over and looked at it for a moment: "Don't tell me, it's pretty good-looking. I haven't noticed how beautiful your eyes are before. When you do your hairstyle later, let the stylist make a layer of broken bangs. The effect will definitely be better."

Ning Lan repeatedly said yes.

Sui Yi, who was sitting in the innermost seat by the window, glanced at him, then looked away and continued to look out the window.

The photo was taken in an indoor studio, with two sets of costumes, one set of rebellious youth style and the other cute style, which just corresponded to the styles of the two songs of the debut single.

He is said to be a rebellious boy, but in fact the shape is not exaggerated. All the sports canvas shoes and trendy brand items look ordinary and full of design sense in the details. It retains fashion while giving people a youthful atmosphere.

Ning Lan's hair was requested to be dyed maroon, and in order to keep it until the MV shooting next week, she had it permanently dyed.

Sui Yi and Wang Bingyang also dyed their hair together. One is gray and the other is blond. There is no special style of killing horses. Ning Lan thinks that the company's aesthetics are not bad and reliable.

The shape is done, and the photo process is very fast.The group photo of the seven people is a well-arranged position and posture. The rebellious one doesn't need any expressions, and the cute one just needs to smile.

Ning Lan's personal photo was delayed for some time. He couldn't adapt to the half-second-click rhythm, and couldn't make so many movements. The photographer probably had never seen such a stiff idol, and shook his head while looking at the pictures on the screen.

Ning Lan thought she had tried her best, and she gritted her teeth to do the shameful gesture of circling a heart above her head with her arms.Now I can only wait for the later rescue.

After the shoot, I went to wash my face first. After rubbing for a long time, I didn't wash off the eyeliner. I simply brushed my hair and used the newly cut bangs to cover it.

On the way back to the car, An Lin asked everyone to register a new Weibo in the format of combining Mingjia's name, follow the company's official account and follow each other.Lu Xiaochuan happily followed several Internet celebrities, but An Lin gave them a bad word, and the boss unhappily unfollowed them one by one, saying that he knew that he would not be able to do this a long time ago, and that he had no personal freedom.

Ning Lan entered "AOW Ning Lan" on Weibo, pressed OK, and asked An Lin, "Why is our group called this name?"

An Lin replied: "It's an acronym for All Over The Word."

Ning Lan wondered which words, Gu Chenkai sneered, "It means the whole world."

No matter what, Ning Lan went to high school, he smiled at Gu Chenkai, and continued to ask: "Shouldn't that be AOTW?"

Wang Bingyang yawned, and said, "The planning department said the T was not good-looking, so they removed it."

Ning Lan silently took back what she had just said about the reliability of the company.

In the afternoon, the dance was arranged for all the members. Ning Lan practiced alone for a week, and the basic movements were passable. However, with seven people, he often had to change formations while dancing. Even though he stood at the end of the line most of the time, he was I can't keep up.

Gao Ming bumped into someone while changing formation again, and Gao Ming who was hit showed an impatient face: "How many times is this? It's not difficult to change positions from front to back, right?"

Before the dance rehearsal, Gao Ming never expected that Ning Lan's strength could not even reach the passing line. Not to mention his poor coordination, his movements were weak, and he could tell at a glance that he had no foundation in dancing. It's hard to see in the pile, the whole group will be dragged down by him.

Gao Ming is a capable faction who spent three years sweating in the practice room from morning to night. He didn't know Ning Lan's details before, so he was polite to him. Now that he is not only an airborne soldier, he has no money and no strength, so he doesn't want to look at him at all. .

Ning Lan is not stupid, he knows that Gao Ming probably has "admired" him.Ever since I found out that the child was full of resentment, I didn't really want to get close to him. When I paid back the money, I added 200 yuan to make up the whole thing.

This matter has nothing to do with the people in the front row. Fang Yu, who was standing at the front, still turned around to smooth things over: "There must be a running-in period for the first cooperation, let's do it again."

Wang Bingyang also came over to pat the two of them: "Okay, okay, we are all brothers."

Everyone.

After two more times, Ning Lan finally stopped stepping on other people's feet.

During the intermission, he took the initiative to go downstairs to buy water for everyone to drink. He originally took seven bottles of mineral water, but he was about to go to the cashier. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and replaced six of them with sports drinks, and went to the practice room to get the mineral water himself. Water, others pick for teammates.

Lu Xiaochuan very gentlemanly wanted to exchange his sports drink for Ning Lan. Ning Lan laughed and said that he was losing weight. Lu Xiaochuan pinched his face affectionately: "Don't lose weight, I will lose my brother's favorite dimple later."

Ning Lan didn't expect to be attacked, he felt the shock, subconsciously took two steps back to avoid it, and almost fell on Sui Yi's body.

"Be careful."

Sui Yi gave him a hand, Ning Lan turned to thank him after standing still, but he walked away first.

Looking at his back, Ning Lan inexplicably thought of the scene last night, and raised her hand to touch the new itchy mole under the corner of her eye.

After continuing the group training for a week, before recording and filming the MV, the company arranged a dinner for all the staff involved in the AOW group.

I ate a seafood buffet, more than 200 per customer.Ning Lan's heart ached when he looked at the price tag, it was enough to buy more than 100 packs of instant noodles.

So with the intention of getting back his food, he forgot rice, drinks, vegetables, desserts, and even chicken, duck, and fish. He focused on guarding the seafood area. As soon as the sashimi came up, he squeezed in to sweep it, and sent back plate after plate of salmon, crab, scallops, and prawns. Fang Yu and Lu Xiaochuan, who love to eat seafood, shouted that it was too much, and told him to sit down and rest, and stop taking it.

Wang Bingyang stuffed an orange into his plate: "Brother Lan was busy all by himself and fed the whole table. Could it be that you are also a nanny?"

Ning Lan tilted her head: "Our team still has a babysitter?"

Fang Yu pointed to Sui Yi: "Just the captain, I heard that in the dormitory, he is also responsible for washing your underwear?"

Gu Chenkai said: "No way, we all wash by ourselves. But brother is really hard. It's not convenient for a girl like An Lin to come to our dormitory. All the sesame and watermelon matters fall on brother."

Gao Ming took the lead in urging everyone to toast the captain, Sui Yi responded with a smile, Ning Lan sat opposite him and observed him quietly, and found that his posture for holding the cup was different from other peers, calm and calm but unsophisticated, he was indeed the captain best candidate.

Ning Lan went to pick up the meal for the last time, and brought a piece of pizza and fried chicken to Sui Yi. Wang Bingyang asked him how he knew that the captain liked this, and he said, "Just now I saw that the captain ate the spring roll skin, but didn't eat the stuffing inside. Guess."

Sui Yi thanked him, and slowly ate everything on the plate.

They ate until after nine o'clock in the evening. Seven people in AOW drank and five got down. Sui Yi, who didn't drink, and Ning Lan, who took a sip of cocktails to save his stomach, helped the drunk teenagers to the car.

This dinner was attended by behind-the-scenes personnel of the company. A dozen or so people drove five cars, and stuffed Wang Bingyang, who was so drunk at the hotel entrance, shouting "Ooooh, long live, ooooh, it must be red", into the car. The trunk is empty.

At this time, the window of the rear seat was lowered, and a car key was thrown out from inside. Sui Yi raised his hand to catch it.

Lu Xiaochuan, who was so drunk that he couldn't speak well, shouted from inside the car: "Captain, you...you drive my car, here, in parking lot B, B, B."

Ning Lan followed Sui Yi to the second floor by elevator, wandered around for more than ten minutes, and finally found a silver sports car that was not in area B but in area D. The two looked at each other helplessly, opened the door and got in the car with a wry smile.

Ning Lan had never been in such a high-end car. After putting on her seat belt, she stared at the road ahead, holding her breath and not daring to blink.

He felt something was wrong and always wanted to stand up.It wasn't until the car drove on the stable main road that the captain and driver saw his distress and said, "This car has a low chassis." Ning Lan suddenly realized and pointed to the big truck in front: "If the car in front brakes suddenly, Did the two of us just get under the car?"

Sui Yi smiled: "Are you using the brakes as a display?"

"I seem to have seen on the news that those celebrities who died in car accidents all drive this kind of sports car?" Speaking of this, Ning Lan folded her arms and her teeth trembled, "Captain, drive slowly, safety first. "

The smile on Sui Yi's face didn't diminish: "I won't take you to die."

"I'm relieved when you say that." Ning Lan narrowed her eyes and said sincerely, "Wow, the captain is the most reliable."

Sui Yi was caught off guard by the praise, and asked curiously, "Where is it reliable?"

Ning Lan said slowly: "Xiao Gu is right. If I were to be the captain, it would definitely not work. It's too fucking tiring. Last night I heard you get up and go to the next door to close the window for them. If it were me, my brother wouldn't even bother Tube."

Sui Yi tilted his head and glanced at Ning Lan. He was probably drunk too, and there were two dirty words out of his mouth. From this angle, he could just see the mole at the corner of his eye looming under the flashing neon lights outside the window.

Sui Yi thought about it later, the reason why he noticed his eyes that night was probably because he was drawn to the upper half of his face by this mole that appeared suddenly She fell into those dark pupils as deep as a pool of water.

Sensing Sui Yi's gaze, Ning Lan also turned her head to look at him, and grinned brightly, revealing two deep dimples.

Sui Yi was in a trance for a moment, and was quickly pulled back to reality by a pair of hands.He looked back and looked ahead, calmly said: "It's a little effort."

Ning Lan smiled to herself: "Thank you for the towel, baby warmer, basic music theory, and... you also drove me back to the dormitory." He wanted to stretch, but when he raised his arm, he hit the roof of the car Shrinking back into the seat embarrassingly, complaining softly, "It's really uncomfortable to sit in this broken car."

Sui Yi said: "Be patient, we will be there soon."

Ning Lan's consciousness was a little erratic, she just felt that the voice was very gentle, and it made people even more sleepy.He let out a "hmm", leaned on the seat with his arms folded, and began to shake his head, drowsy.

Sui Yi didn't hear any movement from the co-pilot, and while waiting for the red light, he couldn't help but look to the right again. Ning Lan's side face was shrouded in a misty halo, and his ears were as white as his face.

He didn't have pierced ears. In the afternoon, An Lin asked him to try on ear clips to prepare for the MV, which left a sudden red mark on his earlobe.

Sui Yi accidentally raised his hand, but quickly retracted it when he was about to touch it.

Fortunately, people did not wake up.

Before he had time to recall why he made such a weird move just now, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

The ringtone and vibration made Ning Lan, who was not asleep, groan a few times, Sui Yi took out the phone in a panic and pressed it casually, and it was connected.

"Hello, Sui Yi?"

The car was very quiet, and a gentle male voice came from the receiver.

Seeing the name on the caller ID, Sui Yi's eyes darkened.
