In the 15 years since she became a mother, Ling Ni has never had to worry about education.Tanqing has been obedient and obedient since she learned to walk, and she doesn't cry or make trouble most of the time, as if she was born so sensible, Ling Ni feels that he is a gift from the gods.

Even though Tanqing has entered the most rebellious adolescence, Ling Ni has not noticed any personality changes in him. It is certain that he matures earlier than children of the same age. The main pastime is practicing piano and reading books.

With such a worry-free son, Ling Ni can often stay out at night with peace of mind. Recently, a new manager has been appointed in the department. He is only 28 years old. In private, his personality coincides with her unexpectedly.She didn't look forward to it for a long time, and only hoped for the current pastime. It was enough for someone to listen to her whining. After all, as a single mother, there were many things that she couldn't tell her children.

When she came home that day, she told Tan Qing with a mysterious smile that she had good news.

Tan Qing took off one earphone, stared blankly, and looked at her mother's abdomen.

Pretty flat, no bumps.

"If you can't guess it, let me just say it." Ling Ni didn't notice the strange look in his son's eyes, "I left work early today and went to Zuige Company to fill out a registration form for you. They are recruiting trainees now. Responsible Someone saw your photo and immediately asked me to fill in the contact information."

Tan Qing rubbed the earphone plug, a light layer of sweat oozing from her fingertips.It took him a few seconds to understand his mother's words, and then he smiled, making himself look gentle, "I'm going to choose a trainee...what to do? There's a lot of homework now, so I probably don't have time on weekends."

"It's enough to take a leave of absence from the accordion once. It's a rare opportunity, baby! If you are selected, you will have a lot of money in the future, and you don't have to study hard now." Ling Ni was as excited as if Foreseeing his son's bright future, "Try without losing money, I think it's very interesting."

Tan Qing unconsciously squeezed the pen in her hand, with a smile still on her face, "It's not hard to study, I think chemistry in high school is much more interesting than in junior high school."

Ling Ni said: "I know, so I just let you try it, if you don't choose it, you don't choose it, don't waste your talent."

"Talent" is really a very subtle thing, Tanqing never thinks that he is better than ordinary people in any way, he just wants to do everything as best he can.But his mother regarded him as a genius, and any bit of talent had to be carefully planned and expanded, otherwise it would be a waste.

There was no room for consideration in the relationship, so I agreed to my mother to participate in the selection.To him, the ability to make others happy was more important than focusing on his own affairs, and since he could make his mother happy just by trying, there was no reason for him to refuse.

The only thing that bothered him was that there was indeed a lot of homework this week.

"What's wrong with your voice?" Tan Qing asked, "It's a little hoarse."

Only then did Ling Ni remember to pour himself a glass of water, "It's okay, I went to KTV for dinner with my colleagues last night, I sang for too long."

"The season is changing, it's cool." Tanqing reminded her to add more clothes tomorrow.

His sensible and well-behaved made Ling Ni smile gratifiedly, she stretched out her hand to gently rub Tan Qing's hair, and said with emotion: "The luckiest thing in my life is that I gave birth to you."

Tan Qing hesitated and asked "Really?", but when he raised his head, the corners of his mouth naturally raised to her.

……

Early on the weekend morning, Tanqing took the subway to the address his mother gave him.Even though he never reads entertainment consulting and doesn't care about idol stars, at least he knows the famous Drunken Song Entertainment, which is the agency company of the most popular CAN boy group at the moment.The school radio station will definitely play a song of theirs every lunch break. After listening to it a few times, I can almost sing it.

He was walking into the carriage when his name was suddenly called, and he turned around to see that it was two girls from the class.He controlled his expression to a level of surprise, and greeted them politely. There happened to be a seat next to them, so they had to sit down when they were talking.

The girls were obviously in a state of going shopping together, and asked Tanqing what to do alone, and whether she was going to cram school.Tan Qing shook her head and said, "Go to a relative's house to visit a patient."

"Oh..." The girl didn't ask any more about this, "Do you know Drunk Song Entertainment? It's an artist company that recruits trainees today. Let's drop by to see the handsome guy."

The distracted attention of the conversation immediately gathered.

The girl said: "I think if you go to talk about love, you will definitely be chosen."

The other also echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, I wanted to tell you on Wednesday, but I don't have the nerve to bother you because you are too involved in memorizing words hahaha..."

Tanqing chuckled: "How can I reach that level, you think of me too highly."

"You can learn to sing and dance. Before Drunk Song, I chose a foreigner to enter. He can't sing or dance, just look at his face!"

"Koty's half-breed." Another corrected.

They discussed the names of different idols or trainees in low voices, and their romantic thoughts gradually drifted elsewhere.Soon the station where he got off the train would be reached, and when the subway came to a complete stop, he was still sitting there.

The two girls stood up and waved goodbye: "Bye!" Tanqing also continued to sit, nodding in response.

Half a minute later, the subway drove to the next station.

Tanqing breathed a sigh of relief for no reason, and now there is no need to go to the interview.Originally, he could have freely admitted the purpose of his trip just now, but this kind of thing will definitely spread to the whole class soon, and he still doesn't want to receive too much attention from others.

Once he is paid attention, he will inevitably be expected, which means that he must try his best to meet everyone's expectations, otherwise someone will be disappointed in him.Even if this disappointment is insignificant, I still don't want to affect the mood of others in the slightest.

It's a pity that he didn't relax for a long time, and a more serious problem came-how to explain it to his mother?

He left early, so it was impossible to miss the selection meeting; the judges didn't like him?The mother was absolutely unconvinced, and maybe she would call the company to verify; or tell her that she didn't go because she was afraid that her teachers and classmates would know that she was not doing her job properly?It's kind of funny.

Tanqing wandered aimlessly outside for a long time before returning home. Mother put down the knife and ran over after cutting half of the dishes, "How about it, what did they ask you to perform?"

Tanqing avoided eye contact with her and said, "It's nothing, there are a lot of people, and I sang a song when it was my turn."

Ling Ni: "Which song did you sing?"

""What FaithCanDo", sung a cappella." These details have been compiled before the talk, "but the singing is not finished, and the time is limited."

Ling Ni asked again: "Didn't they talk to you a little more?"

"The judges are very busy, I can't see it, and I have nothing to say to anyone." Tan Qing said lightly, "It's a bit hot, I'll take a shower first."

Looking at her mother, Tan Qing knew that she completely believed in herself.During the meal, she kept talking about the news about performing arts. She couldn't help but fantasize about the scene where her son became popular as a star, and tried to change the subject of the conversation, but her mother was only interested in this matter now.

To this day, she still wants to step into that circle... The relationship is clear.

At the same time, he also realized that although his mother told him to "just give it a try", she actually hoped 100% for him to be selected by the entertainment company.Tan Qing suddenly felt that the food was hard to swallow, and a piece of his chest seemed to be missing, and a strong sense of guilt emerged spontaneously.

There was no selection, no a cappella, no judging...he didn't even get off at that stop.Would it be a shock to tell her the truth?Disappointed?Do you feel that he has broken his promise?

It took half a day to really achieve her expectations, but now she can only use lies to support her beautiful dreams, and sooner or later she will find that this surprise has failed.Why didn't I get out of the car with those two classmates? Didn't they also think he was suitable for the election?

If it weren't for this uneasy feeling that accompanied him for many days, he wouldn't have realized that this was the first time he had lied in his life.

There used to be a classmate who lied because he didn't do his homework, and he kept revealing his secrets under the teacher's questioning. After talking about love, he understood why adults always said "it takes a hundred lies to make up for one lie", which is really scary.Now he has to log in to the official website of Drunken Song Entertainment every day to see if the selection list has come out. Sometimes when his mother receives a call from a stranger, he will listen carefully with his whole body nervously, afraid that someone over there will ask her why your child didn't come.

Of course, this was his overthinking, such a big agency would not care about an ordinary high school student, and no one contacted his mother until the shortlist was announced.

Now he's going to lie again, to pretend he did his best and just wasn't picked.However, when Tanqing browsed the website of Zuige, I found that the company also announced the list and number of all the candidates who were selected that day. If someone is missed, you can send an email to raise an objection.He didn't go to the scene and didn't have a number, so he must not be in these data. If my mother also saw this webpage, she would definitely be suspicious.

How should he explain this time?Not only do you have to explain why you didn't attend, but you also have to admit the lies you wove before.Mother must be very disappointed, and may even have a fit of rage.

Can't admit to lying.

Tanqing curled up in the closet, her fingers constantly tangling the headphone cable.Only in a dark and closed space can he completely calm down, and the outside world seems to have nothing to do with him.While claustrophobia is one of the primordial human fears, Chat is quite adaptable, preferring to stay in a closet rather than the open world.

It's a pity that his teenage body grows fast, he can't move his limbs anymore, and he has to buy a bigger wardrobe when he works to earn money... No, now is not the time to think about it.Mom was about to get home from get off work, but his new, not-yet-perfect lie prevented her from checking everything.

When he heard the lock on the outside door being turned, Tan Qing held his breath. He thought of the answer for a moment... It's just that this method was too selfish, even a bit malicious.

But there is no other option right now, he doesn't want to see his mother's disappointed eyes on him.

Ling Ni called him twice, but hid in the cabinet and didn't respond.Ling Ni went directly into his bedroom, and saw his schoolbag, slippers, and a glass of uncooled boiled water on the table, which proved that he was still at home not long ago.

Ling Ni thought that he had gone to the canteen, but after waiting for more than ten minutes, no one came home, so she began to call him worriedly.

The phone rang, and it came from his son's bedroom.Ling Ni frowned, thinking why she didn't bring a phone when she went out, but went in to search around, and found that the source of the sound was in the closet.

Her heart sank, realizing that something was wrong.

Sure enough, after opening the closet, she saw Tan Qing's legs curled up in front of her chest, and a ball of headphone cables slipped to the floor.Ling Ni hurriedly helped him out, her son was already half a head taller than her, she looked up, there were a few strands of jet-black hair wet with thin sweat, and her face was flushed with boredom.

"How do you get in here and stay here? If something happens, you can tell your mother."

Tan Qing lowered her eyes and said, "I'm sorry."

Ling Ni frowned even deeper, puzzled.Then, Tan Qing told her: "The list was announced today, and I was not selected as a trainee."

He successfully told the lie.

"Oh... because of this." Ling Ni breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that something serious happened to her son at school that made him feel bad.She just wanted to say "It's okay, just do your best", but she saw a clear tear slip down from Tan Qing's cheek, condense on her chin, and drip to the ground again.

"I really wanted to surprise you, but I really..." Tanqing pursed her lips and took a deep breath, pretending to hold back her tears, "I really don't have that talent, I disappointed you, I'm sorry."

Ling Ni quickly shook her head, "I'm not disappointed. If you didn't choose it, you didn't choose it. A mountain is higher than a mountain. With so many people participating, there must be children who can sing and dance better. After all, you have learned since childhood. But You are still very good, mom didn't lie to you, you are very talented."

"Then will you be sad... I know you want me to be a star." Tan Qing slowly looked at her, "Actually, I'm not afraid of not being selected, I'm just afraid that you will feel uncomfortable, I'm sorry."

Ling Ni looked at Tanqing's wet and red eyes, and her heart softened, "It's not sad, what's the big deal? Don't apologize son, it's your mother's fault, didn't you put too much pressure on you?"

She sighed and hugged Tan Qing's shoulders, "It's okay, I won't let you try these again in the future."

"Yeah." Tanqing nodded, wiped her cheeks with the back of her hand, and still cared about her mother: "Your voice isn't good yet."

"I got angry recently, I'll make a pot of chrysanthemum tea later, and you should drink more."

Seeing that his mood gradually regained his composure, Ling Ni finally calmed down and made dinner. While washing the vegetables, she suddenly remembered the love she had when she was a child, and a strong sense of guilt surged in her heart.

From the beginning to the end of the relationship, she didn't explain to her why she had to stay in the closet, but she felt that she should know the answer.The reason for her divorce ten years ago was a tacit secret between the mother and son. She thought that the five-year-old love relationship didn't understand anything, and she expected him to treat what he saw and heard at that time as a nightmare, and then forget it. .

But it can't.

Occasionally, she would find that Tanqing relied on the big wardrobe, and she knew in her heart that he actually remembered everything.
