wait for me to grow up

Preparations for the SBS Music Awards are already on the agenda, and Tao doesn’t have time to ask his brothers what’s on their minds. Instead, he discusses with Song Qian, who is also from Qingdao, how to create a special stage. Almost every day, he comes from the practice room. spent.

This time, Zhong Ren, Lu Han and Zhong Da will be exposed in advance. The intensive practice of the four made the whole group nervous.Huang Zitao found time to have a chat with Shixun before going into practice, Shixun didn't say much, just smiled embarrassedly, and then said, "Huang Zhitao, don't worry about me, nothing has changed between us."

Saying this, I feel a little bitter in my heart.There has been no change, I wanted to change, that opportunity... Huang Zitao, I missed it because of you.

Regardless of whether you heard it or not, I said it at that time, and I probably won't say it a second time.Huang Zitao, you don't know what you missed...

Then, Sehun really acted as if nothing had happened, and became an obedient younger brother again. When Tao was tired, he would still care for him intimately, give him a massage, and give him a thumbs up and say "Awesome!"

Everything...is normal.

That day, the martial arts teacher patted Huang Zitao on the shoulder, "Let's go back today, it's time to go on stage soon, and we have to pay attention to rest."

"Well, if I practice this movement well..."

"If you're too tired, you can't do well. Go back and rest now!" The teacher put on a serious face and started to chase people away.

In the end, Huang Zitao was thrown out the door by the teacher.

Huang Zitao then walked out of the company, and when he passed a small practice room, he saw a familiar figure, Jin Zhongren danced heartily to the music, his sweat dripped down on the wooden floor with the beat, and was shattered by the music, flickering Seeing the soul of the person and the dance as one.Watching Jin Zhongren dance is a very shocking thing. The so-called layman watches the excitement, while the insider watches the doorway. Only those who learn dance know how good Jin Zhongren is. He is not the kind who memorizes the movements mechanically and then practices them mechanically. His dance steps be free.It can be said...he dances not with his body, but with his heart.

The music gradually died down, Jin Zhongren panted and went to get a towel and water, and found Huang Zitao, who was cute and cute at the door, as no surprise.

"What are you doing standing there? Come in~"

"No," Huang Zitao began to move inside, "I originally planned to applaud you after you dance..." Don't TV dramas always have that kind of plot.

"Then why don't you drum?"

"...forgot." Tao whispered embarrassedly.Really!Just look at it and stare blankly, and then miss the best time to applaud...

If you think about it, you will know, that silly panda has been in such a daze for a while, Jin Zhongren couldn't help but want to ask, what did Huang Zitao do when he lived a few months longer than him?This guy is bigger than himself?No one will believe you if you tell me.

"Why don't you practice running here?" Jin Zhongren looked at Tao who was still in a daze, and quickly changed the subject.Of course, he wouldn't imagine that this guy came to him on his own initiative~

"The teacher gave me a holiday and said I did a good job."

"Oh?" Jin Zhongren looked at Huang Zitao's flaunting little expression and thought it was cute, but he couldn't get over Tao's eyes seeking approval, so he simply nodded, "Yeah, I can see that he must have done a good job."

Anyway, Huang Zitao didn't want to go back directly, so he sat on the floor and prepared to stay with Zhong Ren for a while.He casually picked up Jin Zhongren's cell phone and looked at it. It was all in Korean and looked awkward. Huang Zitao looked at Zhong Ren, who was resting with his eyes closed.

"Ah Zhong Ren~"

"What?" Zhong Ren replied without opening his eyes.

"Will you be nervous? Because we will soon be performing on behalf of our group."

"Are you nervous?"

Huang Zitao would ask this, isn't it because he is nervous?

"...Yeah, that's not it. I just think... I'm not the same as you guys, I... have a lot of shortcomings. I've thought about it for a long time, what if others think that exo is not good because of my shortcomings?"

Jin Zhongren opened his eyes and looked at Huang Zitao. Tao wrinkled his smiling face, his pitiful look made him want to touch him, but finally he endured it, sat up straight and said to him seriously, "You think... you Is it not good?"

"Am... okay?" Unsure, Huang Zitao asked.

"You are very good, Huang Zitao, you are very good. Except for you, I have never met a young person who can sing, dance, rap, and martial arts at a young age. You, Huang Zitao, are also unique in the entire SM, probably no one else. I said it, but when we first saw you, we were all amazed, especially Chinese martial arts, you don’t know how attractive it is. And... not only you know everything, it’s because of you. Huang Zitao, do you know that Wen Kui left Did you say anything to me when you were here?"

"Senior Jin Wenkui?"

"Well, he said...you're an angel."

"..." His eyes widened in surprise because he had never heard of something he had never heard before, Huang Zitao couldn't believe that Senior Wen Kui would say...

"I'm probably ashamed to say it in front of you, but Wen Kui has always liked you, Huang Zitao, you are very kind."

"I'll blush if you praise me like that." Huang Zitao was amused by the serious Kim Jong-in, who... actually treats him very well, right?

Jin Zhongren turned his head away uncomfortably, "I...I just want to give you some confidence, and then, then work hard, you know?"

"Yeah." Huang Zitao smiled peachy, "Then Zhong Ren, let's do our best together, at the Song Awards."

"Of course!"

Huang Zitao practiced dancing with Jin Zhongren for a while, Zhong Ren probably felt that Tao was a little tired, so he greeted him to go back.

"Have you stopped practicing for a while?"

"It's almost done, the most important thing now is to rest ~ let's go."

Huang Zitao followed obediently with his bag in his hand. Jin Zhongren, who was walking in front, just put on the coat and zipped it casually. After walking a few steps, his shoulders were exposed again, he still didn't notice it.However, Huang Zitao seemed to be able to see Zhong Ren's body temperature, which had been warmed up by exercise just now, because there was a little steam exposed, which looked like a young and strong body~ Huang Zitao felt a little embarrassed to think of such words, blushed, but Quickly followed, wanting to reach out to drag.

Jin Zhongren didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly turned around, "We..."

Tao, who had no time to stop, bumped into him straight up, Jin Zhongren couldn't continue talking, and directly accepted the panda who threw himself into his arms...

For a moment, Jin Zhongren felt that the whole world was still, Huang Zitao looked at him in panic, he even forgot to blink his eyes, and slowly his cheeks turned red to his ears~ Jin Zhongren should be thankful at this moment that he has a deceptive face, always The self with a natural and serious expression is the most suitable for concealing emotions.So even though his brain is short-circuited because of holding Huang Zitao in his arms, he still looks calm and even a little bit disgusted.

After all, Huang Zitao was a little afraid of Kim Jong In, this fear has not changed since the beginning.It's really because this younger brother is always serious and serious, and occasionally looks at himself suspiciously like "what the hell are you doing?" I don't know what to say.

Take your eyes away from Kim Jong-in's face, and all you can see is Kim Jong-in's shoulders outside.Huang Zitao remembered his purpose just now, and he stretched out his hand to grab him without thinking much.This time it was Jin Zhongren who was stunned, the feeling of Huang Zitao's fingers accidentally touching his shoulders, seemed to be an imperceptible small electric current, flowing all the way to his heart...

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, Jin Zhongren pushed Huang Zitao away, the fireworks in his heart quickly went back and forth, and then he pretended to be serious, "Huang Zitao, do you like me?"

Huang Zitao was completely frightened, dumbfounded, and then quickly shook his head.

Jin Zhongren glared at him with anger, "Don't you like it?"

Dazed for a moment, Tao shook his head violently again.

"So?"

Huang Zitao looked at Jin Zhongren pitifully, unable to see the answer from his eyes at all.He wants to ask, what do you want me to say?

Of course, Jin Zhongren didn't seriously embarrass Huang Zitao, he was just teasing him.I still remember that after the debut news was confirmed, everyone drank together and then went to sing, that time Huang Zitao was drunk and muttered on his shoulder.It's Chinese... Inexplicably, I really wanted to understand what he said, so Jin Zhongren took the language class seriously for a long time, and even pretended to be a studious student and asked everything he wanted to know.In the end, I finally understood what Huang Zitao said.

That day, in his ear, in Chinese, Huang Zitao said, "Zhong Ren, he is someone like a younger brother that I should like~"

After knowing it, Jin Zhongren complained in his heart, what is "like"?Seriously speaking, it is at all!Although Jin Zhongren has never said anything about this issue, no matter who asks, he and Huang Zitao are close friends, saying that he can't stand the fact that he is Huang Zitao's younger brother, but in fact... because he doesn't like that identity.

If it's my younger brother, I can't even say a lot of things.

"How? What exactly do you want to say?" Jin Zhongren didn't want to let Huang Zitao go, and was ready to tease him to the end.Huang Zitao bit his lip and looked at him, just when Zhong Ren thought that he would beg for mercy immediately, Huang Zitao answered him word by word, "He likes him like a younger brother."

Kim Jong-in was stunned...

The scene coincides with that day, Huang Zitao is talking about the same thing, but the two people are no longer in an awkward relationship as before.So... can I say something now~

"Remove that."

"Huh?" Huang Zitao didn't understand what he meant.

"I said... Get rid of that! What's the matter with my younger brother? Don't put such strange words in your answer." After Jin Zhongren finished speaking, he turned his head and left. After walking a few steps, he stopped and looked back at Tao, "I'm not going back yet. ?"

Huang Zitao reacted for a while, and then chased after him with a smile, "What, you are so unwilling to be my younger brother? Saying things like this, and saying that you are not naive..."

Enduring Huang Zitao's thoughts of being smart, Jin Zhongren couldn't help but roll his eyes.Huang Zitao, are you sure you really understand what I mean?The point is not whether those three words are good or not, so you can’t say them again after you delete them? ? ?

When eating at night, all Huang Zitao could think about was asking Jin Zhongren what he said on the way back, asking himself what was in his heart, no matter how strange the answers of others were, they were just individuals~ But Zhongren thought for a long time and came up with a "little Chicken!" conclusion.

Huang Zitao was completely dumbfounded, "What is that?"

"It's... the baby bird's sense of sight."

"...Don't say such strange things, okay?" Tao's head was full of question marks, and he leaned forward to ask, "What is baby bird?"

"It's... baby bird~" Jin Zhongren didn't turn his head. What he thought of was the time when the two of them ate fried chicken and Huang Zitao had a stomachache. Later, he was lying on the bed because of his injury, watching the ward called fried chicken and beer. The little friends who eat special food said sadly, "I think it must be because I ate fried chicken. I shouldn't kill my own kind~ This is my punishment~~~"

Indeed... Huang Zitao is just a chicken.

Jin Zhongren secretly came to a conclusion.

And here Huang Zitao, who didn't understand what Jin Zhongren meant, thought blankly, what should he write down in his little notebook?

"Why are you in a daze while eating?" Wu Yifan flicked Tao's forehead lightly, bringing the child back to his thoughts, and then smiled at him gently, "What have you been thinking about all day long?"

"No, I didn't think about anything." Tao's face blushed slightly, and he immediately lowered his head obediently and put rice into his mouth~

"Eat slowly, you're still like a child!" Wu Yifan raised the corners of his mouth, and looked at Tao with indescribably gentle eyes.

Zhang Yixing raised his head and glanced at it casually, then lowered his head silently to eat, Lu Han cheerfully picked up food for Yixing, "Why are you just eating rice?"

Yixing smiled at him, but didn't speak.

Lu Han suddenly felt...the atmosphere was not right~ He blinked, held some words in his heart and didn't say anything, bit his chopsticks and looked at Huang Zitao, then at Wu Yifan, and finally turned his eyes to Wu Shixun who was picking rice grains from his own bowl...

The maknae seems to be in a low mood lately~

After the meal, Huang Zitao was surprisingly diligent and helped Brother Baozi to wash the dishes. By the way, he acted like a baby and complained that he had worked so hard during the practice. It would be nice for Brother to buy some delicious food~

Minshuo nodded, "After the show is over, I will take you there to eat delicious food."

"Really? Brother, you are so kind~" Saying that, Tao pounced on him~

"Why are you so innocent? A little bit of kindness to you is a good person?" Minshuo looked at a certain panda who looked at him with utter admiration with a smile.

"Of course you are a good person if you treat me well ~ isn't it?" Panda asked back as a matter of course.

"...Yes, what a cleverness!"

In fact... this world is not as simple as you see.Probably because he lived a few more years, Minshuo always thinks that he is easier to see clearly than the child in front of him.Or, Huang Zitao just doesn't think about it, his world has always been clean and bright, even when he was struggling before, he felt inferior to himself, but he never doubted this world and other people.His heart is more transparent than crystal, it's easy...you can see it.

Huang Zitao, it's really too easy to make you like, that's why you like so many people now.However, there are always people who pretend to be themselves, but you still give sincerely. If you are like this, you will be hurt in the future.

Kim Min-seok laughs in his heart that he thinks so much about what to do, let’s think about things in the future, at least for now... please grow up happily.

"Brother Baozi, you seem to have something to say to me~"

"It's nothing." Minshuo smiled at him, saying something doesn't mean it can be avoided, this road of life has to be walked by himself.You can only grow if you have experienced something. In this case, just let nature take its course.

Thinking of this, he watched Huang Zitao scratch his neck and look outside.

"what happened?"

"Well, brother, I think of something and go out."

Then the panda ran away quickly~

Wu Shixun actually saw Huang Zitao, and he could clearly see the smiling faces around Brother Minshuo.But he's been avoiding Huang Zitao recently, it's not wrong, he's hiding.Because you can't hide the feeling of liking someone. Didn't someone say that the two things in this world that you can't hide are coughing and liking.

After that oolong confession, Brother Jun Mian let himself follow him for a day, and he finally fully understood how much pressure Brother Jun Mian was under when his debut was approaching.That's because the twelve people are full of expectations for their debut and carry twelve heavy dreams. The elder brother who is not tall is gritting his teeth and bearing it.

Because of seeing that, many things that I wanted to blurt out with crazy thoughts were blocked, and I couldn't get them out.

That's right, he liked that person so purely and strongly, there was nothing wrong with his liking.But not now. Once it is said, many things may be derailed. This is about everyone's future, not his own.So...he is not qualified to like it justifiably.I can only hide it in my heart.

Today is also the same, I saw Tao, and then I went out without thinking, and after closing the door, I didn't know what I was doing.Wu Shixun stared at the stairs in a daze, and then leaned against the wall as if he had finished discharging... Isn't it too obvious that he is like this?

When the door was pushed open again, Shixun was caught off guard and only had time to open his eyes, and then slightly pushed aside, looking at Huang Zitao who came out, looking panicked.

"What are you doing, pretending you don't know me?"

"I...I want to go out..."

"Okay, let's go for a walk together." Saying that, he casually hooked Shixun's arm, and Tao pulled him downstairs.

As for Shixun, he followed blankly without saying anything, just staring at the back of Huang Zitao's head stupidly.He... is really thinking of a way not to get close to this person, but it seems like there is a magnet, he can't leave him, what should I do?

"Sehun, I want to ask you a question."

"what?"

"In your heart, what am I?"

"..."

Wu Shixun was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what Huang Zitao meant by asking this question, or if it was just a simple chat.Anyway, he couldn't think so purely, in his heart...that person's position was sharp and obvious, but he wanted to ignore it but jumped out every now and then to remind himself that this person stubbornly occupied a large piece of territory in his heart.But could these words be spoken to him?

no way~

So Wu Shixun was stunned for a while, then immediately shook his head, "This question is quite difficult."

"Just say it directly, say what comes to mind." Tao Xin was thinking about her "homework", and didn't notice how tangled Shixun's eyes were at the moment.

"Cat."

"Cat?" Huang Zitao widened his eyes, looking at himself... Shixun's heart tightened, what should I do, he seemed to like this person more than he imagined.

"Yeah, cat..."

In my heart, you are just a cat~ A cat will act softly like a cat, and dodge skillfully like a cat, suddenly approaching and far away, which makes people anxious.

"What, how am I like a cat?" Tao pouted dissatisfiedly, and gave him a fierce look.

"Where is it different? Right now, this expression is the most similar!"

"..."

"But I like cats~"

Tao couldn't get angry with Shixun's smiling face, but said reluctantly, "I know!"

"Then... what about you?" Shixun turned his head down and asked in a low voice.

"Ok?"

"In your heart, what am I?"

Huang Zitao blinked, Sehun?I... have always regarded Sehun as my younger brother, right?Also... It's not so dogmatic, sometimes I actually see Sehun as more complicated than "brother".Shixun is always good to himself, no matter how he behaves, he is always thinking about himself.Even if he loses his temper sometimes, and has inexplicable thoughts, but that kind of Sehun is also cute~ because no matter what Sehun said, even if it is a sarcastic remark, he knows that Sehun is Because I care about myself.

But that question is still difficult to answer.

What Sehun said...his awkward personality...like a twist!

"Answer!" Wu Shixun saw the tangled panda in front of him was so cute, he simply moved his face to stare at it, "You don't think about any messy things in your head, do you?"

"...It's a cat, and it's also a cat! Wu Shixun, you are also a proud and arrogant cat in my heart!"

"……yes?"

Unexpectedly, there was no rebuttal, Wu Shixun looked at Huang Zitao with a smile, then nodded slightly, turned around, looked at his shoes, wondering what he was thinking.

"But I said, Shixun, you've given me a feeling of putting on airs lately, what's wrong with you?"

"What nonsense?"

"It's true, but you still don't admit it!" As he said that, a certain panda rushed forward with all its teeth and claws.

"Ah, Huang Zitao, can't you stop for a while?"

"Humph!"

"Okay, young master, I will accompany you to the end!!!"

…………

"...Wu Shixun, you wait!!!" ≥﹏≤

"...I'm waiting! You come!" ←_←

…………

Has someone ever said that people always like to compare the person they like to a dog, and then compare the person they like to a cat.

Because, the person who stays by your side like a dog is the person you can trust the most. He will always watch over you and take care of you, and will never change and only look at you.So you can leave without fear, because his love is always there, he makes you feel at ease, but doesn't make you tempted.And the person who walks around you like a cat is the one who can touch the ripples in your heart.He proudly disregards your kindness, and he relies on you as close as if he is far away. Whether he is acting like a baby or making noises that are not right with his heart, you can't wait to see through his heart.I feel humble, but I can't let go. I want to watch him all the time, but I also know that I should give him freedom.The person you face carefully like this is the one you like...

In the end, it was Jin Junmian who called the two children back from the balcony. After watching the two children enter the door, Jin Junmian breathed a sigh of relief, and then realized... that he is really more and more suitable for the role of "mother"~

This is not something to be happy about... What about the upright and unrestrained man? ? ?

Junmian mourned like jade, Zhang Yixing passed by refreshingly drinking a cup of hot milk, Junmian raised his hand to say hello, "Yixing, why haven't you slept yet?"

"Luhan and Brother Minshuo are playing games in our house, so I'll come out for a stroll." As he said, he blew on the hot milk, which had an indescribable smell, making people feel warm just looking at it.

Seeing Junmian staring at the milk in his hand, Yixing was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I warmed up a pot, where are Tao and Shixun? Let them drink some too."

Jin Junmian completely wanted to give this little angel without wings 32 likes, but after thinking about it, he hesitated, "That...otherwise I'll go to bed first, you can give it to them, they will come up right away~" After finishing speaking, at the speed of light Going back to the house, Liu Yixing is in a mess by himself~

Junmian really can't afford to fight with those two bullies, come on, he's getting old, if he puts so much effort into it, he will grow old faster and become irritable!In order to protect exo, he still needs to take good care of himself, rest quickly, rest quickly...

Zhang Yixing watched in a daze as Jin Junmian turned and left without taking a cloud, blinking his eyes for himself, and the next second two young ladies happily pushed the door in.

So, Xingxing, our angel without wings, smiled at the two children and waved, "Come, drink milk."

"..."×2⊙ω⊙

Wu Shixun looked at Zhang Yixing with disgust as he pushed over a mug full of milk, and the steaming heat filled the whole living room with the smell of milk.

"That...or I'll just sleep."

"But Brother Junmian said..."

"Huang Zitao will drink those! Bro, I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep ≥﹏≤"

Huang Zitao watched in surprise as Wu Shixun's face changed into a cute one for a second, and the corners of his mouth twitched, hey, this guy... Zhang Yixing looked at his cute younger brother in embarrassment, "This..."

"I knew brother was the best, good night brother~"

"Good night……"

Zhang Yixing, who finally let go of Wu Shixun, turned his head to look at Huang Zitao. Huang Zitao was stunned, and then he seemed to accept his fate, "Is it okay to just have a cup?"

"..."

"A cup and a half?"

"..."

"Brother Xingxing~"

"Don't act like a baby!"

"π_π you bully~"

Zhang Yixing actually likes this kind of feeling very much. Sitting with Huang Zitao, even if he doesn’t say anything, watching him smile at him, with peach blossom eyes bent into crescent moons, and a beautiful cat mouth, there is an indescribable feeling in his heart Comfortable.

For Huang Zitao, he liked it from the very beginning, there is no doubt about it.The reason is his hard work. Zhang Yixing is a hard-working person. He naturally likes hard-working people, just like he insists on pursuing his dreams. This young man who is younger than himself came to Korea ignorantly and insisted on the same dream.At that time, Lu Han was right in saying that Huang Zitao was another Zhang Yixing.In fact, Yixing didn’t start out like this. He was a very skinny boy when he was a child. When he first came to Korea, he was timid but full of enthusiasm. He also tried to survive with Huang Zitao’s attitude.But at that time, I had no one around me, so I endured the pain and rubbed off the edges and corners of my body. Before I met Lu Han and the others, I was always well into the "Zhang Yixing" mold I created, carefully living.

Over time, it became like this.Thinking about it carefully, he has been in Korea for so long, until he met Huang Zitao, who was so unfamiliar but familiar, and suddenly felt a little bit in his heart.Huang Zitao's personality is so distinct, like a fiery little sun, he is burning hard, either shining brightly during the day, or completely hiding at night.His world is pure black and white, as if all the dirty things in this world have nothing to do with him, his world... is purer than anyone else's.

Perhaps it is this sheer attraction that attracts people.

Zhang Yixing is the same, he treats Huang Zitao sincerely as a younger brother and loves him, wants him to get the best of everything, and doesn't want to see him get hurt.Although the complexity of this world cannot be hidden, the innocence of that child is what he wants to cherish and keep forever.I don't know what will happen to Huang Zitao in a few years, will he be gradually worn away by life?Will you know how to put away your true temperament and do what most people agree with?Will it become less like himself?These... he doesn't know.I just know that this young man who is dedicated to being himself is the most precious.

"Tao~"

"Huh?" Huang Zitao, who was frowning and drinking milk, raised his head, and Yixing was looking at him, his eyes were full of tenderness.

"Tao, after debuting, we will encounter more problems and difficulties, you can tell me anything at any time."

"I know, I will ask if I don't understand~"

"Also, don't doubt yourself just because of anyone's words."

"...Brother Yixing, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, just feeling a little emotional. Tao, we... seem to be one step closer to our dreams."

"Yeah, I really... really want twelve people to be together, let's become the most powerful group in the world! Brother Yixing, okay?"

"it is good!"

At least I promised you, to walk with you forever...

"Brother Yixing, in your heart, what am I?"

"It's my brother."

"Well... what kind of brother?"

"It's... the younger brother who likes to act like a baby."

"...Where is it?"

"So, what am I to you?"

"... um... brother?"

"What kind of brother?"

"Probably like a brother."

"...that's enough."

"Ok?"

"It's nothing, just sleep."

"..."
