Bei He was sitting on a plastic folding chair, with a pair of large sunglasses hanging on the bridge of his nose, he was tucked into a thin blanket, his head tilted, and fell asleep.

The sound of clicking and clicking sounded in the studio, the main camera and the sub-camera were pointing at the screen and chatting intermittently, and the younger generation of staff members were whispering and discussing something in the corner.

"The orphanage before..."

"Yes, yes! I also heard..."

In the middle of the gossip, the companion suddenly bumped her with an elbow.Not far away, Chu Xiaofei, who just came back from outside, put one hand on the skateboard and the other hand a big plastic bag, looking at them with a half-smile. "Thank you, do you want a drink?" He raised the bag in his hand, which contained a lot of bottles and cans, "help share?"

The two took the bag in trepidation, their faces turned red and then pale, and they felt ashamed for their broken mouth regardless of the occasion.Their mouths were tightly shut, not daring to say anything more.

Chu Xiaofei clicked his tongue, his heart was still a little girl after all—but he said it as if he was very old, he moved a chair and sat next to Beihe, hiss, the bench is too hard, once he feels that he is old It's really a pain in the neck and back.

"I don't care, don't scare people." Bei He's soft voice suddenly sounded, like a murmur in a dream, "I'll forget about it if no one mentions it..."

Chu Xiaofei looked at Li Qi'an who was posing with sunglasses in the studio, and was amused by the various handsome appearances of his friends. "It's good," he sighed, imitating Song Yixiang's tone, and the old god said, "It's impossible not to be skinned after the fire, and it's impossible not to be scolded or spread rumors. Quit the Internet to keep safe. You've learned to be smart. .”

Bei He raised the corner of his mouth, "Well, I still have to treat all kinds of diseases."

Hearing the photographer calling his name, Bei He opened his eyes, stood up and moved his limbs.Busy to cure all kinds of diseases, this is true.Once a person is busy and devotes himself to work, he has no time to worry about those messy things.Occasionally, when you are dazed or depressed in the middle of the night, you can use the word "tired" to sum it up. There is nothing else to be hypocritical about.

The return is imminent, they sleep no more than no less than six hours a day, eat three meals on time, eat quantitative and well-balanced nutritious meals, and have a full schedule throughout the day.In order to focus on the exposure rate, during this period the group received a lot of endorsements, the recording of the song and the shooting of the main MV have been completed, followed by the announcement that filled the schedule.Fortunately, he wasn't a newcomer, so Bei He had gotten used to it after being so busy, and didn't feel it anymore.He can operate mechanically, and can live according to the program with only a little electricity.

The power is locked in the phone, and the power can be a video of two cats playing, a hand-drawn drawing that he can't understand, or just a simple word "good night".

At midnight on March 31st, AboutFive's new album "GrowthRings" began to wash up the charts on major websites, overwhelming news feeds, trending searches, and opening screens were all about them.It turned out that Zhou Nanyu, who was not participating in the comeback on the Internet, still appeared in the MV, and there was no shortage of part of the lyrics, but he hardly participated in the announcement, and it is rumored that he will not participate in the recent activities.The fan circle is full of joys and sorrows, and this night is destined to be sleepless.

Qi Mei's joys and sorrows are different from other fans.The dormitory had already turned off the lights, and in the middle of the night, she stood on the balcony with trembling legs and called Qi Chen with her voice pressed down.

"I heard Brother Liang Feng say that you were responsible for Qingye's incident?!"

"Ah."

"Does Xiaobei know??"

"I know now."

"...What's his reaction?"

"No response, he's busy."

"..."

Qi Mei refreshed her understanding of her brother again, she was speechless when he responded to the hot topic on the Internet so lightly.What surprised her the most was that things really developed in the direction he hoped.

Zhou Jinghua spent a lot of money on public relations preparations. Every report poked at the pain point from a moral point of view. In addition to the bills of the dean and his wife, they also dug out a few video materials to exaggerate the welfare of the orphanage. How simple and pitiful the children are, in contrast, the gold watch bags of the dean and his wife are very dazzling.The additional interview with the teacher of the orphanage was the last hammer. In the unbearable description of the middle-aged teacher, the children's living environment was simple and depressing, and the dean's extreme desire for control was vividly described, and there were all kinds of crusades for a while.

However, the description of the "little fresh meat who was blackmailed" at the beginning was omitted, and no word was mentioned again.The only known person in the entertainment industry who has a relevant background is Beihe, but AB5 is busy with their comeback, so it's like they haven't seen it, and they don't respond.There are a few other artists in the circle who speak out for this matter, but their circles are scattered, which only vaguely confirms that there are indeed "little fresh meat" people.Contemporary netizens are all Sherlock Holmes reincarnated, and they have picked up a lot of black material about the orphanage one after another.And in the whole process from the beginning to the end, it seems that there has been a secret hand, cleverly picking out all the information that can point to "Beihe", leaving only the tacit part.The matter went on for half a month, and the news of the resignation of the dean and his wife was the finale, and it was finally submerged in the wave of AB5's comeback.

"It's amazing..." After being amazed, Qi Mei began to sigh, "What, how did you do it?"

"I didn't do anything, Liang Feng helped, everything else... you know."

Qi Chen couldn't explain in detail, he was just the initiator, and most of them had to thank Zhou Jing and the others, most likely also the person who inexplicably became the confidence for his wanton actions.He opened the drawer, and found two business cards under a stack of paper and pen, Zhou Jing and Zhou Xiucheng.I don't know how many blood relatives in the world have known each other since handing over business cards, Qi Chen stared at the second card for a while, and then put them back.

"It's getting late, go to bed."

"Hey wait!" Qi Mei stopped him, "You know they will return tonight, right?"

"Ah."

Qi Mei stopped talking for a long time, and blurted out the word "Zhou", but she swallowed the words back, gave up asking him, and said seriously, "Remember to buy the album! The family members also want to sell quickly!"

After finishing the call, Qi Chen turned off the desk lamp and lay down.On the empty half of the bed, Big Dipper and Lucky Star curled up and fell asleep with their tails wrapped around each other.Lucky Star was picked up by Zhou Nanyu, who he met back in Weicheng, and it fought with Big Dipper for a week after bringing it home, but now it has begun to coexist peacefully and love each other.Zhou Nanyu didn't say anything about the origin of this cat, Bei He told him in a soft voice before going to bed, saying that it had brought him the luck of being discovered by scouts.

Bei He's voice came from the earphones, a slow song, he was singing softly:

The God of the World carved annual rings on human skin, and you are her gift to me;

I love every palm print of yours, please accompany me through this long life.

While Qi Chen was carefully looking at the lyrics line by line, a message popped up at the right time.

Bei He: Good night~ I miss you today too.

Beihe flipped through the long chat history with Qi Chen, the last message from the other party was still four hours ago, and it's almost two o'clock now, Qi Chen should have fallen asleep?With an itchy heart, he rolled from the head of the bed to the end of the bed while holding the phone.

Song Yixiang issued a death order, and unless the official had a schedule in Yidu, he was strictly forbidden to meet with Qi Chen.When Song Yixiang found out that he went to find Jia Zhong alone, the other party really lost his temper, even worse than when he learned that Chu Xiaofei drove a [-]-mile drag car two years earlier.Song Yixiang thinks he can't do it anyway, eyes from all directions are staring at them during the return period, he can't be willful anymore.

Bei He himself felt a little scared, but Jia Zhong seemed to have disappeared after that time, and he never contacted him again.

But what Jia Zhong knew...

--stop.Bei He rolled himself into the quilt, consciously began to warn himself.

Can't think about it any further.

Qi Chen: The new song is very nice, good night.

The phone turned on, and a short line of words became aspirin with just the right dose, which melted into the water with a hiss and bubbles appeared.Bei He squinted his eyes and looked at the screen. If he didn't have to think about anything, his physical fatigue would soon take over, and he was about to fall into a light sleep.

In the middle of the night, the door of the dormitory rang.Chu Xiaofei showed great mercy and gave up the single room on the first floor to change rooms with Bei He, so he could hear the movement from a close distance.Chaos' brain turned around for a long time before he vaguely thought, ah, it must be Zhou Nan who is back.

"I'm all asleep, so there's no need to tiptoe around like this. I thought there was a thief in the house." Chu Xiaofei waved his legs up to Zhou Nanyu as a greeting, "Welcome home, roommate."

Zhou Nanyu didn't react at all to the change of roommate, as if he had expected this to happen a long time ago, and it should happen like this.He took off his coat, sat heavily on the chair, and then said that it was business.

"Five signings have been confirmed. I'm only going to the second one. Remember to read the script. You have a lot to say when I'm not here. Don't be unsure about what you say. Three new endorsements will be added next month, and one of them will Flying to Japan, I may not be able to go, if I can't go, you can watch them, and don't worry about getting lost in Shinjuku the year before last. And..."

"Wait, wait a minute." Chu Xiaofei sat cross-legged while pinching his forehead, "Brother Nan, can you speak slowly? Which is the second signing session... Yidu?"

After he finished speaking, he was stunned.Even though he was only a supporting role in the dog blood story, after several episodes, he developed a certain intuition, which told him at this moment that Zhou Nan went to Yidu not only for the purpose of signing.

"you……"

After chatting with you for a long time, Chu Xiaofei still couldn't find the right words to ask his thoughts. He grabbed a handful of hair and carefully turned the conversation around, "Is your mother okay?"

The content posted on the Internet was too exaggerated. Mrs. Zhou did not enter a serious illness, but went to the hospital for a routine check-up, and then went to a nursing home for a while.Everyone was told so, so even if Zhou Nanyu hadn't shown up for a long time, they weren't too worried.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Nan was silent for a while, and then sighed softly, "It's not very good."

"There is one more thing I want to finish first, or I will forget it later." Zhou Nanyu immediately changed the subject and said, "Jia Xin asked me to tell you that the favor she owed you has been repaid. She also said that I conveyed it to her." This sentence, so what I owe her is also considered to be repaid, and we are both settled. "

Zhou Nanyu stared at him and asked, "So, has something happened these days that I don't know about?"

It took Chu Xiaofei a few seconds to remember their Christmas conversation, he paused for a while, and then slowly summed up, "Jia Zhong is settled, he won't trouble Beihe anymore."

Zhou Nanyu nodded, got up and walked to the bathroom.Fortunately, he didn't ask how to solve it, otherwise Chu Xiaofei really didn't know how to explain it, because he himself was in the fog, and he only thought that what Bei He said, "pretending to be a coquettish bitch, a disgusting person, and a disgusting success", was a little possible.

At this time, his vile energy completely faded away, replaced by a kind of bewilderment.Jia Xin sent him a text message a few days ago, but he was too busy to reply, and then forgot, and he didn't think about it at the time.

She said, I will get married at the end of the year, and you will be exempted from the share. If you remember then, you can buy me a bouquet of flowers, and just ask someone to bring them. I want red roses.

On April 5th, the cherry blossoms in Yidu bloomed, and the pink and white flowers danced all over the sky with a faint fragrance, which was very beautiful.The five people, all in white shirts and jeans, appeared in the flower petal rain with gentle smiles, just like the protagonists who came out of a shoujo manga.There were screams everywhere, short cannons pointed straight at them, the outdoor signing table was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside, and the traffic police were struggling to direct the traffic on the outside. No matter which passer-by saw this, he would sigh, AB[-] It's still so hot this year.

Because of being able to go home and see Qi Chen that night, Bei He had been excited for a long time, and now he was very talkative, in stark contrast to Zhou Nan who was next to him who could not talk too much.

A girl asked, for the word annual ring, does Xiaobei have any imagination that belongs only to him?

Without mentioning things like growing up and memories, Bei He smiled at her, and said: "The annual rings should grow outward in circles, but the tree in my imagination has already determined its life. , determined its whereabouts, so its annual rings grow inward."

At first glance, these words are confusing and confusing, but the more you taste it, the more flavorful it becomes.The audio was posted on the Internet, and the fan circle began to analyze the reading comprehension questions. Bei He looked at the large and large Weibo screenshots that Li Qi'an had taken for him, and said helplessly, "I just said it casually, how can they guess so well? ah."

"So what exactly do you mean?" Gu Hui asked.

"It's nothing." Bei He smiled and shook his head.

In fact, he hasn't finished yet.Other trees live like years and grow a round a year, but this tree used to live like a year, growing a round every day.Now it can be the other way around, it wants to live through the years, every year like every day, until it withers and dies, and at the same time is immortal.

Bei He lowered his eyes, poked open the chat window with Qi Chen, and sent a message to his Mr. Woodpecker, saying that he would be home in less than an hour.

As soon as it was sent, another message popped up on the page.

Zhou Nan: I have something to ask Qi Chen.Do me a favor?

They hadn't chatted privately for a long, long time, Bei He was stunned for a moment, and slowly turned his head to look at the back row of the nanny's car.Chu Xiaofei fell asleep leaning against Zhou Nanyu, who looked out of the window with a calm expression, and did not respond to his gaze.

181206, after Qi Chen pressed the password to open the door, a figure threw himself into his arms.

It's been a long time, this kind of intimate way of greeting.

"Welcome home!" Bei He wrapped his arms around his waist, and smiled at him with his face up. "I arrived half an hour later than I calculated. Are you working overtime?"

"Yeah." Qi Chen put the bag on the shoe cabinet, then hugged him back.He didn't just work overtime today, he has been working overtime since last week, just to free up these two days.

Beihe's 18-inch small suitcase had a new sticker on it, and it was still standing by the door. Qi Chen looked at his obviously tired but energetic appearance, and patted his head, "Go take a shower. "

"Then..." Bei He tiptoed to his ear, "Wash with me?"

There is often only a thin line between pure love and pornography, and Bei He stands in the middle of this line.He grabbed his collar and deliberately sprayed hot breath on his ear.The originally green fruit is already ripe, and there is a seductive smell of demon rule in every gesture.In the camera, he would occasionally show a similar aura, his eyes filled with spring water. Fortunately, no one knew where his transformation came from, and no one except Qi Chen could see the fruit after it was peeled off. , the way the juice is flowing.

April flowers bloom outdoors, and the house can also be full of spring.Bei He suddenly remembered something, panted and pushed Qi Chen's arm, "Ah... why are they here, hurry downstairs..."

Qi Chen buried his face on the side of his neck, and laughed in a low voice.

It would be great if you could spend the year like the sun, and spend your life like this.

"Want to chat?"

At an unknown time of night, it was rare for Qi Chen to take the initiative to break the silence, while Bei He held his waist without moving.

"If you don't say anything, or say something that people can't understand and guess, I will worry."

Facing this kind of straightforwardness that Qi Chen rarely saw, Bei He struggled in his arms. "What do you want to say?" He asked softly, "Tell you how tired and busy you are? It's useless to say it. I don't want to bring you too many negative emotions."

Qi Chen hummed.

Bei He muttered softly, "Or something else?"

Bei He in front of Qi Chen was so easy to deceive, when asked a question, he began to speak involuntarily.The black mud accumulated in his heart is still there even if he doesn't think about it or look at it. Qi Chen opened the gate, wanting him to drain them, peck out the pests in the annual rings, and give him back the cleanest and most relaxed self .

But how difficult it is.

Qi Chen patted him on the back encouragingly, "It's all good, you can tell me."

"Which aspect do you want to hear?"

Qi Chen thought for a while and replied, "Work and relationships."

Bei He pursed his lips and started talking, he didn't even realize that he could say so much.

"There is a song in the new album that I have been unable to sing. In the end, I was practicing with my voice. Qi'an has been teaching me, but it is still a little bit worse. I was not born in professional training and I don't have much strength, but I am I don’t want to be perfunctory... In the end, the recording was made and then repaired, everyone said that it sounded fine, but I didn’t like it, and finally I moved those few lines of lyrics to Qi’an.”

"Gu Hui said that I have a problem with my mentality, and I also think so. Sometimes I feel that it doesn't matter if I become an idol or not. Being an idol is just a coincidence. God rewards me with food. But once I am in this position, it is too much to think about leaving. I'm not responsible anymore, it's impossible to be as good as I want, even if I try my best, I will always be dissatisfied, I want to wait until the contract ends and run away, but I feel that I will let too many people down."

"Even if the status quo is maintained, I feel that I have already let down many people, such as... Xiaofei. I have been causing trouble for him, he takes good care of me, and I completely trust him, so many things fall to him without knowing it It's on the head."

"And...you. I didn't think about Qingye at all. To be honest, when I heard Sister Jing mention it, I was shocked."

"Are you scared?" Qi Chen didn't speak until he heard this.

When you know that your name is on the cusp again, and the past you don't want to recall may be spied on by countless people, are you afraid?

Bei He shook his head vigorously, his hair brushed against his arm, a little itchy.

"I think you must be sure to do this, and why are you afraid, you avenged me, I'm too happy to be happy."

"Yeah." Qi Chen raised his hand to stroke his hair, "Don't be afraid."

"Don't be afraid of anything, do your best and be yourself. If you can continue to shine, continue, and if you are tired, stop. As for others... Chu Xiaofei, if you have knots in your heart, tell him. Have you forgotten why he got angry with you at the meeting? If you don’t tell me, how could he know?”

Bei He hummed in a very low voice, he understood the reasoning, but he was really convinced when Qi Chen said a few words.Bei He grabbed the corner of his clothes and took a deep breath.

"And I hate this... this distance, I can't see you."

Qi Chen won't answer this question.There are always irreconcilable parts between work and relationship, and this is just one of the most obvious ones.Bei He's voice became smaller and smaller, Qi Chen thought he was tired, so he reached out to turn off the light, and gently patted his back to coax him to sleep.

But Bei He is actually very sober, seeing each other once a month, how could he be willing to just fall asleep like this.

"Is it gone?" After a long silence, he suddenly asked again, "That's all? Don't ask other questions?"

Qi Chen paused, "What else?"

"for example……"

Bei He sometimes hated himself for having such a good memory, he could remember every sentence of his conversation with Qi Chen, the concealment, evasion, and evasion so clearly.When he is with his lover, he will return to his sober self from the perfect machine, but the long-standing worries will come one after another.

He didn't believe that Qi Chen had completely forgotten it.

"Like... an ambulance. Don't ask me what's going on? I told you I'd explain it to you."

God knows how much courage it took him to say these three words. The name that had been covered in dust for a moment was awakened by the sharp sound of the whistle, and turned into a nursery rhyme that sounded in the reed field when he was a child. side of the river.The voice was like a curse, hovering in his ears until his ears rang, until his breathing gradually became short of breath.

Then he was dragged back to reality by Qi Chen's gentle voice.

"Well, don't ask."

Bei He opened his mouth, and it took several seconds before he recovered his voice.

"……why?"

Qi Chen covered his eyes with his hands, and said the longest sentence that Bei He heard him utter in one breath.

他 说:

"Because everyone can have a part they want to keep. This is different from the trivial things in life that I said before. It's like...my life experience. If possible, I hope Qimei will never I know. It has nothing to do with whether we have the right to know or not. Whether we are known or not should be determined subjectively by ourselves. No matter how deep our feelings are, we have no right to ask to be transparent, or to reveal our privacy, or, in other words, if there are nightmares from the past , I hope you don’t think about it again. Tell me about it until you have to dig it out and dissect it for some reason.”
