Chasing Tides

After eating the hot pot and returning to the dormitory, Ning Lan took a shower and was reading a book in his hands. It was the green book "Basic Music Theory" that Sui Yi had lent him.

Seeing Sui Yi leaning over to take a look, Ning Lan said, "I bought this book myself, I didn't steal your book."

Sui Yi smiled, once this guy got angry, he would overwhelm everyone.

Ning Lan was watching the lecture on major mode, scratching his ears and flipping through the pages while reading, humming the example piece twice, still in a daze, and with the ready-made music teacher dangling in front of him, It can be said to be very annoying.

When Sui Yi was about to go to bed, Ning Lan grabbed his pajama pants.

"What's the matter?" He turned to ask.

Ning Lan curled her lips and pointed to the book: "This, can you tell me about it?"

Sui Yi waited for him to subdue, sat down with relief, and began to give lectures to the students.

Sui Yi has studied music systematically, no matter where Ning Lan asks, he knows it at his fingertips.Ning Lan asked all the marked content that she didn't understand before. Music theory is like other subjects. If you have a solid foundation, you will naturally solve the difficulties in the future. Bring some adoration.

Sui Yi knew what he was thinking, and said, "If you integrate music theory knowledge into the process of learning the piano from elementary school, you won't find it difficult."

There was no hint of showing off in his tone.Ning Lan thought to himself that if he had learned something special since elementary school, he would probably wish to show it to others every day, so he asked, "Captain, how long have you been learning the piano?"

Sui Yi was stunned for a moment, and said, "13 years."

"Wow, must have passed level ten?"

"Experts don't look at the so-called grades."

Ning Lan didn't understand these things, and only felt regretful: "It's a pity to give up after studying for so long...Are you really going to stop doing it in the future?"

Sui Yi looked into his clear eyes, and suddenly thought of that person. Back then, that person also looked at him with such pure and clear eyes.

At that time, when he was young, he failed to meet the teacher's requirements because he played an etude for more than half a month. Playing a childish temper, he shouted at the teacher "I will never play it again", threw away the bow, and ran outside the classroom. Hiding in a corner and crying.The man dropped the half-played piece, jumped off the piano bench and ran out, squatted in front of him and said, "You play so well, don't give up, I...I really want to play a piece with you."

If the teacher is the object of his admiration, that person is the pursuit he yearns for.He wanted to be like that person, every note flowing from his fingers was full of clean and pure joy, the bright sunshine settled in his eyes, every smile and every look could give people the power of reassurance and joy.

Sui Yi kept silent, Ning Lan consciously slipped her tongue, covered her mouth and said, "Singing and dancing are pretty good, anyway, it's all music, it's all right."

Sui Yi came back to his senses, raised his hand to rub his black and soft hair, Ning Lan also boldly pulled his red hair, Sui Yi resorted to his trump card - tickling, the bed was too small, Ning Lan had nowhere to hide, Writhing and struggling on the bed, laughing until tears came out, gasping for breath and calling for mercy.Sui Yi held down his waist to prevent him from writhing, and he laughed even harder, bending his legs and rubbing left and right between Sui Yi's crotch.

Sui Yi took a lot of effort to hold down his legs, and sat on him and asked, "Why don't you feel ticklish when dancing? Huh?"

Ning Lan laughed breathlessly, and said with difficulty: "Tight... tense, how can I... still care about laughing?"

In fact, the most nervous thing was the time when she danced with Sui Yi in women's clothing. Her whole body was so tense that she didn't feel itchy at all.

The two fought until midnight, but they were still full of energy, and the fighting gradually changed.Sui Yi was sweating all over, turned over to take a shower, Ning Lan went in with bare feet, and used a stool to prop up the door.Not long after, there was an ambiguous groaning sound from the bathroom, which could not be heard clearly under the sound of the shower water, and it continued intermittently until the middle of the night.

After finishing the signings, there are only two months left in this year.

The major music award ceremonies are coming soon, and the company has accepted two variety shows for AOW, one of which is the ace reality show "Love's First Challenge" on Star TV. Originally, according to AOW's current celebrity status, it would not be able to participate in this show, and the number of groups is too large , The program group has regular guests, which is difficult to arrange.Zhang Fan begged his grandpa to sue his grandma for a relationship, so he got such an opportunity.

Sui Yi was stunned for a moment after hearing the itinerary, and repeatedly confirmed with Zhang Fan that it was the recently hit "The First Challenge of Love", as if her soul was gone.

"Don't be too happy. I don't have that much ability. What I won for you is a special section. It is not filmed with the main line of the reality show. It should not be able to meet those guests. When it is broadcast, it will be inserted in the middle of the show for 20 minutes." Zhang Fan said, "Our main purpose is to take advantage of the popularity of the show to advertise the group and make them familiar."

Sui Yi's expression was blank again for a moment, and it took a while before it returned to normal.

After getting the itinerary and ending the meeting, everyone felt both excited and a little regretful.

""The First Challenge of Love", my mother, my second aunt, my grandma and grandma watch it every week. Do you think we will become popular if we appear on this show?" Wang Bingyang was very excited.

"I don't think so." Gu Chenkai, who has the most experience in variety shows, said, "It's just a special section. When it is cut outside the venue, it is estimated that the aunts and grandmas will switch channels, or take advantage of this time to wash clothes and cut fruits."

Gao Ming said: "Don't be so pessimistic. Isn't this show several first-line traffic guests? Who, isn't Ji Zhinan, who won the Newcomer Award last year, also in it? Everyone is fresh meat, so we can get some attention anyway." ?”

"Can actors and singers have the same mass base now? You are too optimistic..."

Ning Lan didn't participate in the discussion, and listened to the wild guesses. He paused when he heard the word "Ji Zhinan", and suddenly remembered something, but he couldn't catch it after thinking deeply.It was only when he turned his eyes to see Sui Yi that he had a vague impression. In the J City Hotel, he had twice opened the movie in which Ji Zhinan won the Best Newcomer Award as a supporting actor.

Sui Yi folded her arms and leaned against the window, not knowing what she was looking at.

Ning Lan walked over and looked out following his line of sight. Upward was the clear blue sky in early autumn, and downward was the road with endless traffic.

Ning Lan didn't see why, so she touched him and asked, "What's for lunch?"

Sui Yi turned to look at him, smiled and said, "You decide."

Sui Yi doesn't eat in the cafeteria, and usually settles her lunch in the restaurant downstairs of the company.Recently, there are frequent gatherings of fans downstairs in the company. This is commonplace. After all, there are more than a few artists in the company. After experiencing the vicious incident at the signing event last time, Ning Lan became a little afraid of fans.There was a platter concert last week. When getting off the nanny car, there were fans handing flowers and gifts on both sides. When Ning Lan saw a cup of milk tea being handed over, she subconsciously hid to the side, her face pale.

On the surface, it seems that he has not been affected. In fact, no matter how good his psychological quality is, it is impossible to get out of this shadow all at once.

Sui Yi took Ning Lan to the back door of the company, and drove him to the newly opened food street in the east of the city for dinner. On the way, he told him that he was going to record a music show with Gu Chenkai and Fang Yu next week in City S , Ning Lan was a little surprised. After thinking about it, he felt that it was expected. The three of them had some musical literacy in AOW. If he was allowed to go, it would probably only embarrass the group.

Ning Lan asked him how many days he would go there, and after thinking about it, he came back to record "The First Challenge of Love" just in time, but there was almost no rest time in the middle.

Sui Yi caught a glimpse of him counting something with his fingers, and looked away knowingly.

November 11 is Ning Lan's official birthday on Baidu Encyclopedia.

Ning Lan's real birthday is not on this day, and she only remembered it after being reminded by An Lin, and quickly posted on Weibo to thank everyone for their blessings. The other members of AOW also sent blessings and tweeted him. Ning Lan liked each of them one by one, commented in a formulaic way, and put down his phone after a busy lap, but he didn't feel any real sense of celebrating his birthday.

In the afternoon, Wang Bingyang came to the practice room to look for him, and mysteriously said that there was a surprise in the evening. Ning Lan guessed that the company probably arranged a live broadcast, which was the same as Lu Xiaochuan last time, but Sui Yi hadn't returned from recording the program in S, so he didn't think much about it. Looking forward to the so-called birthday party where I will perform for fans.

Before leaving get off work, Fang Yu sent him a WeChat red envelope, Ning Lan pretended not to see it, and Fang Yu sent several aggressive screens in a row. Ning Lan had no choice but to send him an emoji of "Please stop your performance", Said: [I appreciate the kindness of your old man, modern people don’t like these vain things, and they have to pay back what they received, how boring]

After Fang Yu said this, he immediately figured it out: [How to withdraw the red envelope?Don't order it! 】

Ning Lan was speechless: [Can't you just order the red envelope and collect it?]

So Fang Yu handed out a bunch of red envelopes worth six yuan and eight yuan, and took them back one by one by himself.

After receiving it, Fang Yu said: [I'm sorry, Xiao Lanlan, I can't come back to celebrate your birthday with you today]

Ning Lan said: [It's okay, I know you are busy]

He kind of wanted to ask how Sui Yi was doing. According to Wang Bingyang, high-flowered CP fans on the Internet heard that Sui Yi and Fang Yu were going to record a show together. room, immediately suppressed the Yilan CP who had been shivering a while ago so much that she didn't dare to fart.Thinking of this, Ning Lan was not very happy, and felt that she was too stingy, blindly eating jealousy, like a fool.

Before he could speak, Fang Yu said first: [Although I am in the distant city of S, my heart is already flying towards you at a height of [-] meters! 】

Ning Lan thought he had delivered something to herself: [Thank you in advance, I can't afford your heart, I will be beaten]

Speaking of this, Fang Yu frowned: [Who?Who wants to beat my Lan Lan?I slapped his mouth! 】

Ning Lan laughed out loud when he thought of Lu Xiaochuan's dumbfounded look when he was slapped by Fang Yu.
