deep in the sky

Lee Seung Hyun was very upset.

After the photo was taken the day before yesterday, President Yang appeared in front of the six of them again the next day.

President Yang said that after seeing their recent performance, he felt that there were still some shortcomings. He initially decided to eliminate one or two of them. Battle.

Of course, if it was just like this, Lee Seung Hyun would not be irritable, but President Yang’s next words shocked him. There is no other reason. Form a Rap team with Lee Seung Hyun for a vocal duel!

This is totally different from Lee Seung-hyun's experience in his previous life. In his previous life, they had an original dance duel in groups of three or three. Could it be because he sang rap, so President Yang also adjusted the content of the competition according to the situation? ?

The change of history makes Lee Seung-hyun feel anxious that things are beyond his control. Of course he does not expect that everything will remain the same after his rebirth, but he cannot imagine the extent to which his flapping butterfly will affect everything around him. Influence.

Lee Seung-hyun suffered from insomnia when he announced the content of the 3V3 duel. This was the first time he could not sleep after his rebirth. It took him a whole night to slightly adjust his mentality. He had no way of knowing what the future would be like. Whether his rebirth will have a bad influence on everything around him, so doing his best to take every next step is his only choice.

Li Seung-hyun, who has undergone self-psychological counseling, has already stabilized his mentality, but Zhang Xiansheng's attitude towards him has become very strange these two days. The relationship between the two of them was not very good before, but they can occasionally have a few words of friendship , but Zhang Xiansheng treated Li Shengxuan almost with an evasive attitude for two days: no longer eat Li Shengxuan's breakfast; Help, the other party only said that Quan Zhilong would help him.

What made Lee Seung-hyun most uncomfortable was that no matter what he did, Zhang Xiansheng would watch him silently from the sidelines. With his keen sixth sense, he didn't feel that the other party was learning something from him, but With an expectation that he'll make a mistake?Or a slightly...unwilling emotion watching him.

Li Seung-hyun was very annoyed at being watched with unkind eyes from time to time. He tried to ask Zhang Xiansheng, but all he got was a deadpan expression, or a ruthless look on the back of his head.

On this day, the six of them went to the scene where Seven was filming the MV, saying they were going to be guest stars, but Lee Seung-hyun knew that they were not even seen in the edited MV, oh no, he vaguely remembered that there was a scene where Touched the back of Yong Pei brother's head.

Lee Seung-hyun did not hide behind the pillars like he did in his previous life, watching the interaction between Brother Seven and the MV heroine with envious eyes. Hyun has even filmed a bed scene, the level of holding a little hand is so low, okay?

Taking out the pen and paper that he carried with him, Lee Seung-hyun scribbled and corrected the notebook with his back against the cold pillar behind him, trying to seize inspiration and write down some scattered lyrics and tunes.

President Yang gave them a week to prepare for two sets of battles. The three members of Tianquan Zhilong team decided to create a new rap song to compete with Dongyong Bae through discussion. Everyone completed their own lyrics. As for the song, it was discussed and written by Kwon Ji-yong and Lee Seung-hyun.

"Writing a song?" A cold voice passed by my ear.

The tip of the pen that was scribbling and writing on the notebook suddenly stopped, Lee Seung-hyun turned his head to look at Quan Zhilong who was standing less than one meter behind him, and the other party's eyes glanced at the lyrics book in his hand.

"Yeah." Li Shengxuan responded lightly, and his gaze met the other's light-colored pupils, "Brother Zhilong, what's the matter?"

Quan Zhilong frowned unnoticed, but in the next second he adjusted his facial expression and asked softly, "Have you finished writing the lyrics?"

"Yes."

"Where's the song?"

Li Shengxuan reached out and clicked on the notebook in his hand: "I had some ideas just now..." But it's gone now, so hurry up and leave.

Lee Seung-hyun swears that he saw Quan Zhilong's complexion distorted for a moment and then recovered quickly, so he couldn't help but like the other party's expression management.

Quan Zhilong said in a cold voice: "That's right, come to my room to discuss it together." Before Li Shengxuan refused, he asked, "What happened to you and Xiansheng recently? Xiansheng seems to be in a bad mood these days... "

Heh, the words are defending Zhang Xiansheng?

"Brother Zhilong, you have to ask him. I'm just as confused as you. Please tell me why he did that after asking." Li Shengxuan interrupted the other party's words impatiently. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry Brother Zhilong, now I have to continue writing songs."

Quan Zhilong was a little stunned for a while, as the younger brother Li Shengxuan, he just directly interrupted him, who is both the captain and the elder brother?And there seemed to be a little...sarcasm in his tone?

……

After Lee Seung Hyun heard Jang Hyun Sung who was sitting across from him muttering, "Shengli, you should have a barbecue too", he realized, ah, so this is the day.

In the previous life, Seunghyun and Quan Zhilong broke the news on "Everyday, Every Night" for the effect of the variety show, which really attracted him a lot of trouble, especially the "barbecue incident" and "TopTopTop incident" that Seunghyun broke the news about, but in fact things It's not what they say at all.

The "text message incident" Quan Zhilong mentioned at the beginning can be understood as jealousy, but so far, Lee Seung-hyun has not been able to figure out what Seung-hyun was thinking at that time.

Li Shengxuan raised his head and looked around. Although it was close to ten o'clock at night, this time-honored barbecue restaurant was still full of people, and the business was booming, which made their table even more silent.

This was the first time that Zhang Xiansheng took the initiative to talk to him these days, so he finally found out his fault, couldn't help venting his depression and dissatisfaction?

A trace of coldness quickly flashed across his eyes, Li Shengxuan hooked the corners of his lips, and said softly, "I don't know how to barbecue."

The atmosphere fell into silence again.

Quan Zhilong, Dong Yongpei and Cui Shengxuan lowered their eyes in silence and ate the barbecue in the bowl. Jiang Loulou and Zhang Xiansheng also lowered their heads and continued to turn over the barbecue.

After a while, Li Shengxuan heard a crisp sound of metal colliding. Zhang Xiansheng put the barbecue tongs aside and looked up at him: "Do you think I can roast?"

Can't stand it anymore?

"I don't know how to grill meat either, really."

As soon as these words came out, even through the faint smoke rising from the baking pan, Lee Seung Hyun could still clearly see Dong Yong Bae, Quan Ji Yong, and Cui Seung Hyun lowering their gazes, and Kang Lou was even louder. I was about to bury my head in the baking pan, Li Seung-hyun smiled: "Sorry, I have never baked it before, isn't it a waste if it is baked?"

After a barbecue, everyone finished eating with their own thoughts. On the way back to the dormitory, Li Shengxuan deliberately lagged behind everyone and walked at the end. He grabbed his cuff.

Lee Seung-hyun blinked at Choi Seung-hyun, who was looking back, and shook his head slightly, the other party turned around immediately, and continued to go back to the dormitory.

……

After "solving" with Jang Hyun-sung, Lee Seung-hyun crossed two streets and bought a pack of green and white hard-packed Marlboro and a small box of gray-white leather matches in a small, crude shop, and then casually He found a slightly cleaner ground and sat down.

There was a soft "cha", the pink match head scratched across the skin and ignited a small orange flame, Li Shengxuan protected the flame with one hand, while lowering his head and lit the short white cigarette in his mouth , took a deep breath.

The smell of mint instantly filled his mouth, filling his lungs along with his breath.

There were some subtle insect chirping sounds in his ears, and the slight sound of insects flapping their wings. Li Shengxuan raised his head and looked at the street lamp glowing orange above his head. Some tiny insects were flying around the light.

What is it for?

What Lee Seung-hyun meant was, why would he sit in such a shabby place on such a cold night after eating and drinking and having a fight, smoking a cigarette that he hadn't touched for a long time?

In fact, it can’t be said that it’s “not touching for a long time”. After breaking up with Quan Zhilong, Li Shengxuan soon learned that the other party was quickly dating a consortium daughter. Since then, his life can’t be regarded as a human being. Days passed.Tobacco, alcohol, women, even sex that he has never dismissed, as long as it can temporarily paralyze the brain, he has tried them all.

But after he woke up, his heart felt more empty and painful.

Looking back on those days now, he doesn't know how he survived. When he was sober, he stayed in the apartment where he once lived with Quan Zhilong and fell into lengthy memories; Go out to seek a momentary stimulation, numb yourself, bumping in pain and drowsiness day after day.

It's not that he hasn't tried to persuade him to stay, he, Li Seung-hyun, has always devoted himself to what he wants to achieve, but Quan Zhilong is far more ruthless than he imagined.He didn't answer the phone or text message, even if he waited all night in Quan Zhilong's newly bought apartment under heavy snow, he still couldn't see each other; hugged and kissed that woman in front of him; threw their couple rings away In the huge fountain pool, he groped in the pool until midnight in the winter until he found it...

Until that day, he finally died on the way to Quan Zhilong's wedding church.

That was his last attempt to get him to stay, but the reality was no different from the past, even more cruel—he died alone in the small cab, on that damned sunny winter day.

When he was dying, all he got was the ending of the last phone call he made by Quan Zhilong himself, that is, at that moment, Quan Zhilong strangled his love for Li Shengxuan to death with his own hands.

Lightly brushing the cigarette in his hand with his little finger, a small cluster of ash was shaken off gently, and the moonlight in the distance seemed to be much hazier through the wisps of misty smoke.

Li Shengxuan touched the stinging corner of his lips, it was the mark left by Zhang Xiansheng's fist, but it didn't matter, the other party was much worse than him.

In the days since his rebirth, Lee Seung-hyun is thankful that God gave him a chance to do it again, but at the same time feels anxiously that maybe all these gifts will be taken back in the next moment.He hated Quan Zhilong's heartlessness and wanted to take revenge, but he kept telling himself that the other party was just a person who had become the past and was nothing.

These complex emotions filled his body, but were firmly suppressed by his rationality in the dark corners of his heart, and finally fermented into crazy tyranny, but they have been suppressed and could not find an outlet to vent.

Coincidentally, Zhang Xiansheng, a person he didn't like in the first place, has been making some actions that he doesn't like even more recently. Since the other party is so proactive, wouldn't he be let down if he doesn't cooperate? This "beauty"?

"One, two...six" Li Shengxuan counted the remaining six cigarettes in the cigarette box, and counted the remaining thirteen matches in the matchbox, and then put them all in his pocket.

"Obviously it was a match that lit a cigarette..." Lee Seung-hyun took the last puff of his cigarette and grinned, "It really doesn't deserve it." After speaking, he put the cigarette butt with scarlet sparks in his hand It smashed hard on the ground, leaving an ugly black mark.

Raising his hand to throw the extinguished cigarette butt into the trash can by the street, Lee Seung-hyun put his hands in his pockets, turned and walked into the vast night.
