wait for me to grow up

When Li Chenghuan returned to the dormitory at night, he found two people waiting for him in the room.

"Are you... all right?"

Jin Junmian first bowed respectfully, "Brother, Wu Yifan and I are here today, and I want to clarify some things!"

…………

The music gradually stopped, Kim Moon Kyu was sweating from dancing, he stepped aside, picked up a towel and water, and sat next to Kim Jong In.

"What's the matter with you today? Just stay here without dancing, unlike you!"

"Wen Kui, I think we should talk."

"Now?"

"Find another place."

"...Okay, just wait for me."

…………

Li Enshuo's company came out and received a call from Huang Zitao.

"Brother, do you have time now?"

"Well, what's the matter?"

"If you have time, let's meet up!"

Li Enshuo rushed to the appointed place, waiting for him besides Huang Zitao and Zhang Yixing.

"Brother, there are some things, I hope you can tell us the truth."

…………

The existence of Park Dongchang is the consensus of the SM company's top management. His main job is to make those who cannot be managed by the company or who have no hope of debut naturally choose to leave.Park Dongchang also took on some "private work" where the company didn't take into account or simply turned a blind eye. Anyway, for him, it was just a way to exchange money.

Jin Wenkui had heard about Park Dongchang from some old trainees, but he did not expect to get in touch with him by accident. At the beginning, he just wanted to use the internal information of the company that Park Dongchang knew to make the situation more favorable to him. one side.

Pu Dongchang took the money and looked at him with a half-smile, "Why bother? You also know what my specialty is. I can easily make him make a mistake and leave. It's very simple!"

Jin Wenkui shook his head hastily, "If I do that, how will it be different from Huang Zitao who relies on his seniors for his position?"

"I want to see how far you can go by relying on your so-called kindness!" Park Dongchang put the money in his pocket and looked at Jin Wenkui, feeling ridiculous. Who didn't want to be a pure angel on the clouds in the first place, and make people look up? Looking up, surrounded by kindness and beauty?Who would be willing to fall into hell, with his face gradually becoming terrifying, facing darkness and cunning all day long?

However, in life, is there a choice?

Whether it was five years ago or now, it's the same. Although there are no swords and swords in this company, there are open and secret fights everywhere. Either you die or I die!

Park Dongchang will receive another call from Jin Wenkui, he is not surprised at all, he knows that Jin Wenkui will think clearly, it is better to be cruel to others than to see yourself hurt.

"Aren't you unwilling to be a bad person?"

"I don't want to be a bad person, but I don't even want to leave!"

…………

Pu Dongchang actually likes Huang Zitao a lot. In his opinion, Huang Zitao has the ability to make his debut, he is smart and willing to work hard. Although he is a bit natural, he knows everything he should understand.It's just that Pu Dongchang's appreciation for this person is very limited in his heart. People who have nothing to do with him are just people who can exchange for some benefits...

Everyone knew what happened after that, while Huang Zitao was leaving, he took away his sword, pretended to be a staff member and gave him a faulty sword, and then left.

Without Lee Eun Suk, everything would be perfect, and no one would think that this was more than a simple accident.

But in fact, in Li Xiuman's eyes, there are indeed no accidents in this world, everything is inevitable, and everything has a reason.He found Pu Dongchang that day, the office was covered by curtains, only dim lights were turned on, and Li Xiuman's face was uncertain in the shadows.

"Are you looking for me?"

"Huang Zitao's matter, at what stage do you plan to develop it before reporting it to me?"

"This matter..."

"I should have told you who is in my reserves."

"But... didn't you also say that if the strength is similar, the one left by your own way is more valuable?" Park Dongchang quickly defended, but he saw Li Xiuman's eyes full of anger, "Or... from the beginning Are you planning to give up on Kim Moon Kyu?"

"I just don't think he has the ability to debut." Li Xiuman said lightly.

See, sometimes you struggle with all your strength, and strive for the goal that others cannot achieve, but in fact, the reality is so cruel that you have already determined that you are not qualified to compete.

"But now I... have another thought."

…………

The task Lee Seung-hwan received was to contact a person, and that person was Lee Eun-suk.It was the first time for Lee Seung-hwan to discuss official business with others at the police station, and he was really not used to it.

"Brother Chenghuan, I didn't steal anything. I was wronged. I don't know what's going on!" Li Enshuo is now very excited through the prison door. He can only treat the only person he knows as driftwood. Your only chance to save yourself.

"I know."

"So, brother Chenghuan, save me...you...you mean..."

"You don't know what's going on, I do!"

Li Enshuo looked at Li Chenghuan's face, not joking, and yes, he never had any intention of joking.Think about it too, if there is nothing wrong, how could Lee Seung-hwan appear here?It will be clear when you are rational, there is no misunderstanding and wrongdoing at all, this is what the company means.

"So, what does the company want me to do?"

Lee Seung-hwan smiled, "You are really smart, how can such a smart person be a trainee for so many years?"

"Probably... I'm not very lucky."

"In life, debut is not the only choice. In fact, you can be like me."

Lee Eun Suk's eyes widened, he meant...

"The company gave you this opportunity, but... some things are not that simple. There are things you have to pay more attention to when you are an agent than an artist. There are some things you can't see, hear, or say, and don't even remember!"

Li Enshuo swallowed, and was silent for a while, "Then...the company doesn't want Huang Zitao to debut?"

"On the contrary, the company wants to know how far Huang Zitao can persist."

"...Okay, I'll think about it."

As for Jin Wenkui, he left directly after the assessment that day, probably out of guilty conscience, he didn't dare to inquire, so he didn't know what the result of Huang Zitao's side was.And at night, he became very nervous, because Cheng Huan said that he had something to say, but he didn't know what the content was, and he was afraid that the phone call he just made would reveal it.

Lee Seung-hwan waited for him at the appointed coffee shop for a while before Kim Moon-gyu arrived and hurried over to say hello.

"Sit down first, I have something to tell you."

"Ok."

After Jin Wenkui sat down, Li Chenghuan said casually, "Do you know Park Dongchang?"

The cup was knocked over in a panic and fell to the ground and shattered.No time to care about the broken cup, Jin Wenkui wanted to explain, "Brother, I, I..."

"It's okay, don't worry, the company already knows about it."

"Brother, I..."

It's over, it's over.Jin Wenkui did not expect that the agreement with Zhong Ren could not be fulfilled.

"Wen Kui, you are so stupid!" Li Chenghuan couldn't help sighing, "I had great expectations for you, even if it doesn't work this time, you still have a chance next time."

"Next time?" Wen Kui sneered, "Yes, there is always a chance next time, but brother, when is the next time?"

"In any case, you can only wait until next time!"

Jin Wenkui loosened his clenched fist, "Brother?" Could it be...does he still have a chance?

"You know, the company doesn't need perfect and kind people. Fans of angels think that's enough. People who are too kind are often misunderstood. What the company needs are obedient people, do you understand?"

"Then... what can I do?"

"You have two options, one, leave! Two, stay and enter the reserve."

…………

Huang Zitao's eyes were dim and his brows were furrowed. He didn't intend to pursue this matter anymore, but now, according to Brother En Shuo, everything was not that simple. The matter was so complicated that Huang Zitao didn't know how to deal with it.

Zhang Yixing held Huang Zitao's hand from under the table, making Tao feel his support.

"I'm sorry, but I had no other choice at the time, and they told me that it wouldn't affect Tao's debut..."

"Brother, we want to thank you instead!" Zhang Yixing interrupted him, "Now at least we don't have to keep in the dark, brother, don't worry, just pretend we haven't met today."

"Yes, brother, thank you for telling me." Huang Zitao nodded.

The more this happened, the more uncomfortable Li Enshuo felt, "I can say it, these things don't belong to me in the first place, I can tell the truth..."

"Brother, don't be stupid!" Tao shook his head vigorously, "It doesn't do me any real harm. Anyone who should know the truth will know, but if you tell me, brother, it will only cause harm. Brother, our Isn't life not that simple, if that's the case, it's understandable for us to pursue the maximization of interests, isn't it?"

"Tao..."

"Brother, just like what Brother Yixing said, let's pretend we haven't said this, the company has made a decision, and we can't change it."

After bidding farewell to Li Enshuo, Huang Zitao followed Zhang Yixing and walked slowly to the dormitory.

Neither of them spoke, Huang Zitao thought about this matter a hundred times in his heart, and then decided to bury it deeply and never think about it again!

"Tao..."

"Brother Yixing, what's the matter?"

It's that name again!

Zhang Yixing bit his lip and looked at his shoes, "Before... no, call me..."

"what?"

"...No, nothing!" Shaking his head, Zhang Yixing put his hands in his pockets and continued to walk forward.

Huang Zitao, who was still behind, thought for a while, then smiled and rolled his eyes, "...Xing, I want to eat ice cream~"

Zhang Yixing was obviously stunned for a moment, turned around to look at him, and nodded slowly, "... Got it." Yixing turned his head immediately, but Huang Zitao still caught a glimpse of the dimple he couldn't hide, hehe smiled and said in the back Shouting vigorously, "Xing", "Xing"...

"Okay, let's go!!!"

Huang Zitao's annoyance finally made the calm brother Xingxing "turn from embarrassment into anger".

"I'm really sorry that I kept it from you for so long." Jin Wenkui finally told Jin Zhongren everything, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed.

"You mean, you can't debut this time?"

"Probably so."

"So you don't like Huang Zitao because..."

"Oh, maybe it's jealousy." Wen Kui smiled with his head down, "But it's also the company's intention. Give him more setbacks. If he can't make it through, the result will be the same as mine."

"He...passed?"

"Well, I passed it, so I'm even more jealous~"

"Wen Kui..."

Jin Wenkui blinked, and showed a reassuring smile to Jin Zhongren, who was worried about him, "Actually, thinking about it, hating Huang Zitao is also a very tiring thing, because I am the only one who regards this as a war, Huang Zitao looked at me Always innocent eyes, every time I feel a little worse."

"Wen Kui..." Knowing everything, he also knows Wen Kui's forbearance these days.Zhong Ren never thought that the company would do such a thing, but Wen Kui... such a kind Wen Kui, after making a mistake once, he had to force himself to keep making mistakes.How helpless would Wen Kui, who resents himself while doing something he doesn't like, be like that?And I... still doubt him.What kind of friend is this?

"Don't look at me with pitiful eyes, okay?" Wen Kui still smiled, but no matter how you looked at that smile, it made people feel sad.

"I'll go tell the company!" Kim Jong-in said and walked out, Wen Kui hurriedly got up and pulled him, "What did you say? Did you not make a debut when you said I couldn't make it? Are you crazy? The company values ​​you but not You are indispensable, a trainee who rebels against the company may have no hope in his life, but I still have hope, I can’t do it this time, I can wait for the next time, so you can’t be impulsive!”

"But we had an agreement..."

"It's because of that agreement. We obviously made an appointment with Taemin. Didn't he make our debut first? So what, as long as one day we can stand on the stage together, so what if we don't stay together all the time ?" Wen Kui held Zhong Ren tightly, "Or are you unwilling to wait for me? Or don't believe me?"

"But... are you willing?"

"How could you be willing? But I am willing!"

Even though, I can no longer be that pure angel on the clouds that everyone wants to be, but I will not willingly fall into the dark hell. Even if I want to miss it and do it, I still haven’t forgotten my true heart. I still want to warm you with a clean self.

This holiday, a big event happened in this dormitory!Jin Wenkui is about to move out, and the reason given to the outside world is that Wenkui retired from the reserve service due to personal reasons, and the company will soon fill in a new person.The remaining eleven people were either surprised or silent.

Jin Junmian tried his best to laugh, "I'm treating guests today, let's go drink!"

"No~" Nuo Nuo's voice floated over, everyone looked over, Huang Zitao was taken aback, "That... I can't drink."

Everyone laughed and forgot the grief of parting for a while.

That night, the twelve people forgot all the grievances between them, talked happily over wine, and what they said and thought was their hope of working together.No matter who among them did what, in fact, they didn't want to use their own methods to step towards that goal step by step.Huang Zitao's concealment is that Jin Kui's struggle is also true. In fact, in essence, there is no difference between the two of them.It's just that on this road, if one person takes a wrong step, it is destined that the two people will not be on the same journey.

If there are two people walking together on the road to heaven, and one of them falls into hell because of a slip and fall, when he looks up, he sees that his former companion is still going up and has begun to touch the sky. Touch the dawn of heaven.How can I make him not feel resentful or jealous?

Sometimes you resent because you can't get it, and you're unwilling because you can't get it.

Kim Moon Kyu is like that.

To this group of people, including Huang Zitao, he has not been unwilling for a long time, but sometimes he still feels pitiful, why did he choose the wrong one?Otherwise, drinking with this group of people will not be for their own departure, but for their common success!

Jin Zhongren was dragged by Wu Shixun, and after hearing him pour out a lot of bitterness, he turned around and found that Wen Kui was no longer in the room.He asked Brother Junmian if he had seen Wen Kui, Brother Junmian shook his head, then thought for a while, "Oh, where is Tao?"

There is a stone paved road outside the hotel, walking on it, there is a very comfortable feeling.Huang Zitao rubbed his feet back and forth uneasily, not daring to look at Jin Wenkui on the other side to see what kind of expression he was looking at him.

"Huang Zitao, do you know? Until now I am still very jealous of you, you are so lucky!"

"senior……"

"But do you know what I can't let go of if I can't make a debut with you?" Jin Wenkui could see through the window ten people in the room who were drinking hotly, talking to each other, looking very intimate.

"..."

"It's Kim Jong-in." Jin Wenkui didn't mean to ask Huang Zitao to answer, but just continued, "Do you know how long I have known Zhongren? We once agreed to debut together, but I couldn't make it happen." Whether you regret it or have regrets, it’s just that in the future, the person who will be by his side can’t be me! But, that person, Kim Jong-in, I’m afraid that he won’t be able to take good care of himself if I’m not by his side. He is not the kind of person who likes to make friends. He is unwilling to say anything. When he is sad, I am not by his side, and he will not take the initiative to find me. Huang Zitao and Jin Zhongren are very different from you. You seem to It's easy to be liked by others, but it's hard for Kim Jong-in to open up to others. If there's anything you can't solve, it seems that the whole world is willing to help you, but what about Jong-in?"

"Aren't we still there?"

Seeing Huang Zitao's serious expression, Jin Wenkui smiled, "So, can I take this as a promise?"

"promise?"

"Yes, you promised that I would help me take good care of Jin Zhongren."

"I...take care of?" I couldn't believe what Wen Kui said, Huang Zitao didn't seem to have taken care of anyone since he was a child.He was born with a tendon, and people around him are taking care of him everywhere. He can't take care of himself well, so how can he take care of others?

"Hey, what's that expression on your face? No matter how you say it, Jin Zhongren is younger than you, why don't you take care of him as an older brother?"

Brother?Huang Zitao blinked, as if it was a very familiar title!It seems that not long ago, I still thought that Wu Shixun was my younger brother, the only younger brother, so let him be willful.So, now his younger brother is not only Wu Shixun alone?There is one more Jin Zhongren, but no matter how you look at it, Jin Zhongren doesn't look like a younger brother!

"Hey, Huang Zitao! If you don't speak again, I'll take it as your agreement."

"what?"

"Then let's make such an unhappy decision." Jin Wenkui looked at Huang Zitao very seriously, "If you don't take good care of it, I will come back and trouble you."

Huang Zitao stood there blankly, watching Jin Wenkui turn around and leave after he finished speaking, he couldn't find an expression suitable for the current situation at all, the dim street lights in the dark night made Jin Wenkui's figure a little dazed, looking at him like this, no I know when my senior seems to be getting thinner, thinner and more vulnerable.Will it be hated if it is sympathy?But Huang Zitao felt sore in his heart, he really didn't blame Jin Wenkui at all, he was still... the senior who would smile when he met him, touch his head and let him take good care of himself, he also... worked harder than himself A senior who wants to debut and tries harder to protect those around him.

"Senior, don't worry."

Huang Zitao rubbed his eyes, ah, it was sour... he sighed, and then covered his face, today... night is very windy.

It wasn't until Jin Wenkui was no longer seen in this dormitory that everyone knew that it turned out...that was the end.They all doubted and hated, and they all thought they were Sherlock Holmes, but when the truth came out, they could only bury this matter deeply in their hearts, pretending it didn't happen, pretending that no one else knew about it, pretending... This matter is the same as the company announced to the outside world.

Because no matter how unfair the world is, they still have to look for the invisible light in this unfair world.

Just as Jin Wenkui left without a sound, the new members also moved in quietly. When Huang Zitao saw the new members, he was startled, "It's you?"

Jin Zhong looked at him with a big smile and nodded, "We meet again, Huang Zitao."

"Tao, do you know anyone?" Shixun sat on the sofa and looked up at Huang Zitao who was standing next to him. Huang Zitao nodded fiercely, "Brother, who are you looking for?"

Before Jin Zhongda could answer, Jin Junmian came in from the outside, "Sehun, Tao, come, help me get something."

"Brother Junmian, what are you doing here?" Shixun looked at the door curiously, Jin Junmian ran down again, and Jin Zhongda also dragged a big suitcase.

"Is this bro a new member?" shouted at the top of his voice, but Jin Junmian didn't hear it, but Baek Hyun Chanyeol and Lu Han who were hiding in the room were called out.

"New member? Where is the new member?" Lu Han and Bai Xian asked in unison.

Wu Shixun looked back at them, they glanced at each other, and then turned away from each other~

"Lu Guo, the new member is downstairs."

Lu Han also looked down with Shixun, and pushed Huang Zitao who was stunned, "Why are you pretending to be Zhang Yixing?"

"No, Deer, that new member we met before, in the cafeteria..."

Lu Han watched Jin Zhongda come back with a suitcase, and suddenly remembered that he had indeed seen him before, and wanted to call him by name, "Jin Zhong... Zhong..." But suddenly remembered that Huang Zitao didn't even He didn't tell himself his full name.

Jin Zhongda watched Lu Han clock for a long time and didn't come out with anything. He was not angry, and greeted him with a smile, "My name is Jin Zhongda, and I'm a new member of the reserve team from today. I'm very happy to meet you all."

"Brother, are you the new member?" Huang Zitao grinned. When he met Jin Zhongda before, he thought this person seemed easy to get along with. Wouldn't it be better if the new member was someone he knew?

"What?" Bai Xian walked over with a smile, patted Jin Zhongda's shoulder, "Zhong Da, I'm still thinking, how could this debut without you?"

"Hey, do you know beef?" Huang Zitao leaned forward and asked.

"It's a friend who participated in competitions together before. To be honest, when it comes to singing, Zhong Da is really strong."

"Let me just say, brother looks very powerful!"

Huang Zitao began to have fun helping Junmian go down to get things, please, he is a Kung Fu Panda~

Jin Zhongren returned late as usual, he heard that the new members moved in today, but he didn't see him, but it doesn't matter, it's not a big deal in the first place.

Anyway, this world is like this, those people come and go, just passers-by, deeply remembered, leaving only pain after parting.

Just like Kim Moon Kyu, I feel angry when I think of that stinky boy, obviously we can debut together, but it turned out not to be like this!Kim Moon Kyu, next time we meet, let him treat you to fried chicken! ! !

Jin Zhongren turned on the light in the living room, and then stood up alone on the originally quiet sofa, which surprised him.

Huang Zitao rubbed his eyes, "Zhong Ren, you're back." Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he widened his eyes, shouted "Oops", "Oops", and rushed into the kitchen, where there was a crackling like After being in a hurry for a while, Huang Zitao came out with a small cup in his hand.

"Fortunately, I'm fine. Why did I accidentally fall asleep?" Putting the things on the table, scratching her head, Meng Meng looked at him stupidly.

Jin Zhongren asked uncertainly, "This one, for me?"

The panda nodded like the chick.

"You did?" Jin Zhongren asked even more uncertainly.

Hearing Jin Zhongren's disgust, Huang Zitao pursed his mouth and shook his head, "It's not me, Brother Kyungsoo made it. The soup he made is delicious. He said he was afraid that you would not be able to eat it when you came back late, so I said I went to bed late. Help him watch the fire, come and drink, it's really...it's delicious, it's delicious~"

Huang Zitao was still a little confused, he lowered his voice for fear of waking up others, and the scene of obediently looking at himself is really... too weird.Speaking of which, I have never had a good attitude towards Huang Zitao, let alone the misunderstandings, it seems that I haven't apologized to him yet.What is going on now?Is Huang Zitao dreaming or is he dreaming?

"What are you doing in a daze, come on!"

Facing Huang Zitao's baby silkworm beating in the night, Jin Zhongren walked over and obediently began to drink the soup.Huang Zitao sat across from him, with his head resting on his arm and looking at him warmly. Jin Zhongren suddenly remembered what Wen Kui said to him the day he moved out of this dormitory.

That day, Wen Kui simply packed a backpack. It was only now that Zhong Ren realized that Wen Kui only took a few things when he moved in. It seemed as simple as a three-day and two-night trip.It turned out that at that time he was already ready to leave at any time.

That day, Wen Kui seemed to be in a particularly good mood. It must be that he could finally relax after so long.As he walked downstairs, he turned his head and said to Zhong Ren, "You don't have to send it off, it's not like I can't find my way!"

"Then I'll watch you go downstairs."

"What's disgusting?" Jin Wenkui smiled, "It's not like our way of getting along. If I'm worried, I should be worried about you, but... I feel more at ease now, do you know why?"

"..."

"Because, even if the person by your side is not me, it can still bring you strength and warmth. I used to think that everyone in the world wanted to be an angel, but no one could do it. I didn't expect there to be such a simple person in this world. Simple enough to be a bit silly. Such a person, no matter what I say, can't help but want to get close to him. I think...anyone will be like that. I didn't admit anything to Huang Zitao, but he is qualified to treat him at your side."

The reason why he said that was because Jin Wenkui met someone not long after the assessment.

He also didn't expect that Li Donghai would contact him.For Li Donghai, in the past, he was a respectable and respectable senior, but after seeing that text message, his feelings became a little complicated.That person is the one who can greet Huang Zitao with care, and the one who Huang Zitao hides...

But he didn't expect that Li Donghai would actually come to him because of Huang Zitao. Before he could ask, Brother Donghai opened his mouth and said, "I want to talk to you about Huang Zitao."

"Brother, did you stand up for him?"

"I just don't understand, Wen Kui, you didn't treat your juniors like this before, I'm just afraid...you misunderstood something."

…………

In the end, Huang Zitao, I really am still jealous of you, I wonder if it's because you look so harmless that people can't help but want to waste excess love.With you like this, you have gained too much happiness that others can't grab, how can people not be jealous?

Jin Zhongren didn't know how complicated Wen Kui's thoughts on Huang Zitao were, but what he said that day "he has the right to be by your side" was imprinted in his mind and he couldn't get rid of it.Absently drinking the soup, Huang Zitao on the opposite side started pecking at the rice again.

How could this guy...

Huang Zitao suddenly opened his eyes, and met his eyes in a daze, blank for a while, "Are you done drinking?"

Jin Zhongren nodded.

So Huang Zitao was 12 virtuous to pack up his things again, watching him fight with the lying silkworm, and Jin Zhongren snatched the things from him by mistake, "Don't pretend to be diligent, you beat the bowl again! Give it to me, you Go to sleep!"

Huang Zitao froze in place, he...has he been rejected again?

Blink, I managed to survive until now, do you think pandas are night owls?It's not easy for people to be so kind, if they don't want to be a warm elder brother, hum, vomit! ! !

Huang Zitao fell into deep resentment...
