The atmosphere at the scene became more and more intense. After just one performance, Xia Shui felt a little tired. It may be that the enthusiasm of the fans made him unable to bear the energy consumption too fast. Even though it was night, he felt that his eyes were bright, as if he was in a colorful light. In the built palace, it was like a dream in a trance.

At the end of the performance, after the lights on the stage were extinguished, the light in the auditorium was still surging like an ocean.Xia Shui lowered down and breathed a sigh of relief, maintaining the ending posture and waiting for the lifting platform to lower them slowly.

"Happy cooperation." Gu Xi stood by Xia Shui's side, tilted his head and smiled, "You seem to have exhausted a lot of energy, will your competition be okay later?"

Xia Shui looked at the audience who slowly disappeared from sight, and nodded: "It's okay, there is enough time to rest before going on stage next time."

After they got to the backstage, the assistant came to pick them up to rest.Gu Xi took a sip of the mineral water handed over, and said, "Why do you feel so absent-minded, thinking about something on your mind?"

Xia Shui shook his head lightly: "I'm just tired."

"Okay, I'll cheer you up later." Gu Xi waved his hand and left, "I won't disturb your rest for now."

Xia Shui was lying on the sofa in the lounge, resting while watching the live broadcast on the stage on TV.He wanted to try his best not to think about anything else until the end of the concert, but when Lu Junyao appeared on the screen, his heart was still tugged.

Lu Junyao is now in a business state, probably expressing his thoughts on the last contestant's stage, his words and deeds are quite perfect.In the past, Xia Shui was often bewitched by Lu Junyao like this on the screen, so much so that he couldn't forget it.But he now knows that this Lu Junyao is not real. Although the real Lu Junyao is still beautiful in appearance, he is emotionally unstable, has a pathological possessiveness and an elusive temperament, but if he shows obedience to him, he will become gentle again And straightforward, showing a strong love.

Xia Shui occasionally feels afraid of Lu Junyao, and he feels that he can't adapt to this kind of love with shackles.That day, Lu Junyao kissed him forcefully, grabbed his shoulders and neck, and took away his air. It was the first time he felt uneasy that his fate was locked in someone else's hands.It may take a long time for him to heal the shadow that caused him.

but……

Xia Shui began to hate himself, why even if this happened, he couldn't help but feel moved when he saw Lu Junyao.

It was as if God specially set up an unsolvable program for him, named "You Can't Escape Lu Junyao", which started running when he saw Lu Junyao and could not be closed.Xia Shui was very scared. He was afraid that if he continued to face Lu Junyao, he would not be able to help but promise everything to him. He would be willing to force himself, imprison himself, and then lose himself. In the end, he would become a string puppet and hand the string to Lu Junyao's hand. hands, let him play with himself in any way he likes.

Is this love? Why is love so distorted, as if forcing people to go to hell?Xia Shui was upset and couldn't figure it out at all.

Xia Shui waited in the waiting room for a long time, and finally waited for him to play.

He took a deep breath, stood on the lifting platform, and entered the stage with the heat wave of the auditorium swinging.

Although there will be many people around the stage, standing on the stage and looking into the auditorium, you can't see anything clearly except the waving lights, so for Xia Shui, no matter how many people come to the concert, it is just an increase. Nothing more than background sound, the stage is his personal world, and also a place for him to vent.

Xia Shui understood very early on that he is not a genius. In his profession, he does not have a stunning appearance or talent. Although he has always advertised that he is better at dancing than others, it is only because he practiced dancing. Dancing time is longer than others, and his basic skills are solid, so he is just a person who has become a little better by relying on hard work.

But he felt that he was already very good at being able to do this.He doesn't want to compare with others, and he doesn't want to force himself to do things that he is not good at. He just wants to feel happiness in the field he likes, and money can't buy him happiness.

Moreover, at least in this final scene, Xia Shui is convinced that no one can beat him, this is what he can do, the extreme of "slightly excellent".

The music sounded, and the whole venue began to cheer. The enthusiasm that broke through the sky seemed to lift off the transparent roof of the pavilion, turning into a passionate torrential rain.

In an empty aisle in the background, Gu Xi leaned against the wall, watched the broadcast on the phone screen, and smoked leisurely.

"Hi~ handsome guy?"

Gu Xi raised his head, only to realize that there was a person standing in front of him at some point.He is a handsome man with a well-proportioned and tall figure. The black suit jacket is open, and the collar of the lining is also loose, revealing a large portion of his collarbone, making him look very flirtatious.

star?But I haven't seen it, is it the staff?That looks pretty good.These thoughts flashed through Gu Xi's mind for the first time, and he spoke quickly: "What's the matter?"

Duan Shu also smiled: "Nothing else, just..."

Gu Xi lowered his head and continued to look at the screen: "If you have nothing to do, don't come to strike up a conversation."

"..." Duan Shu also froze with a smile on his face, with one hand on his hip, "I just want to say that smoking is not allowed here."

"..."

Gu Xi was speechless for a moment, pinched the cigarette with one hand, and threw it into the trash can not far away: "Let's go down."

Duan Shu also took a closer look at Gu Xi, and said in a teasing tone, "You're an entertainer anyway, and you usually have such a casual style? You're not afraid of being caught."

Gu Xi felt that this person was annoying, so he was very impatient: "It has nothing to do with you, I don't know you."

Duan Shuyi smiled on the surface: "Really, my name is Duan Shuyi, nice to meet you."

Gu Xi was slightly taken aback.

Duan Shu also teased: "Look at the reaction, how do I feel that you know me."

Gu Xi said indifferently, "I don't know."

"Really." Duan Shuyi's smile was meaningful, and he shrugged and left.

"..." Gu Xi put away his phone irritably, scratched his head and muttered in a low voice, "It's gone, what kind of shit..."

On the stage, the enthusiasm of the audience continued until the end of the performance. Seeing everyone so happy, Xia Shui was satisfied.But at the same time, he was also too tired. After the end, he completely relaxed, and went into power-saving mode with a blank mind. He was in a daze until the final awards were presented.So much so that when Lu Junyao handed the trophy to him as the award presenter, he was stunned for a while before he realized it, and quickly said "thank you" bluntly and took it.

Unexpectedly, Lu Junyao stood directly beside him.

The host spoke in front with a microphone, and Xia Shui stood side by side with Lu Junyao in the back, feeling a little awkward.Finally, Lu Junyao couldn't help it, and took the lead in whispering on the stage: "Why, are we so unfamiliar now?"

Xia Shui sighed silently: "Then do you reflect on yourself?"

Lu Junyao was silent for a moment: "...I'm working hard."

Xia Shui had no choice but to say, "Then let's wait until you reflect on yourself."

Lu Junyao turned his head: "Xia Shui, but I really..."

The host suddenly handed the microphone to Xia Shui: "Hey, let's invite our champion to share his thoughts on this show!"

Lu Junyao: "..."

"Oh...Okay." Xia Shui took the microphone from the host, read the prepared speech, and then there were various interactions with fans. After playing for a long time, the concert finally came to an end .Although he noticed that Lu Junyao seemed to want to say something to him before, he was interrupted by the process, and when he looked back, he found that there was no good opportunity to ask, so he gave up.

And Xia Shui didn't want to be alone with Lu Junyao yet, so he stayed with Gu Xi after the concert, and finally hid from Lu Junyao and left.

Before getting into the car, Gu Xi said: "I'll go to the airport to go back to City B later, when will you get the ticket?"

Xia Shui: "Tomorrow morning."

Gu Xi smiled: "Is there a holiday the day after tomorrow? Do you want to play?"

Xia Shui thought for a while, then nodded: "It's fine in a decent place."

"What are you thinking? When did I take you to a strange place?" Gu Xi waved his hand out the window after getting into the car, "Then I'll contact you when I get back."

Xia Shui waved goodbye, turned around and saw Lu Junyao standing in the distance, staring at him intently.

Lu Junyao was actually far away from him because his car was parked far away, but Xia Shui was able to accurately capture the way this man looked at him.

Xia Shui inexplicably felt a little apprehensive, looked away and shrank his neck, turned around and got into the car, and was driven away by the driver.

Xia Shui caught the plane the next morning, went home at noon and fell asleep until the evening, when Gu Xi woke him up with a phone call, asking him if he would go out to play at night.

"You are somewhat seriously ill." Xia Shui just woke up, and his tone was still a little soft, "There are so many people going out to play at night, are you going out to be watched?"

"You are getting more and more arrogant now." Gu Xi felt wronged, "I hired a game store, do you want to come? VR and switch, or you can play online games if you want. The boss is an acquaintance, no It will expose our whereabouts to the outside world."

Xia Shui was a little entangled: "Well...Actually, I don't have such a great enthusiasm for games..."

Gu Xi was puzzled: "Then what do you want to do when you finally have a rest day? It's not boring to stay at home alone, can you still chat with your neighbors?"

"Neighbor..." Xia Shui thumped inexplicably, a little embarrassed, "I don't know if I told you, my neighbor is Lu Junyao..."

Gu Xi: "Huh???"

Xia Shui scratched his head, just wanted to complain, but actually didn't want to talk about this topic, so he changed the subject: "I'll talk about this later, I'll go play video games with you, can you drive to pick me up? I'll send you the address .”

Ten minutes later, Gu Xi came. He stood in the aisle and stared at the door of Xia Shui's "neighbor" in a daze. When Xia Shui came out, he couldn't help asking, "Is he at home?"

Xia Shui followed Gu Xi's line of sight, knowing who he was asking, curled his lips: "How would I know, but he's probably not here, he's still busy."

On the way to the destination, Gu Xi frowned and complained, which sounded like he was hurting others: "I really have you. I didn't know that you were such a person who would chase after you. You even knew where other people lived."

Xia Shui hurriedly defended: "This is the house my father gave me. I didn't buy it at all. It's a coincidence. If I'm really capable, why wait until now?"

Gu Xi: "So you are dating, right?"

Xia Shui hesitated: "...not yet."

"I thought the relationship between you two was already very good, otherwise Lu Junyao would never be able to lead you to market." Gu Xi was a little curious, and guessed wildly, "Oh, so he is a straight man?"

Xia Shui: "No..."

Gu Xi: "So you're chasing him, and he hasn't agreed yet?"

Xia Shui shook her head: "...I didn't agree."

"?...??" Gu Xi glanced at Xia Shui in disbelief, and the steering wheel almost crooked.

"Why, you don't like him anymore?"

"……nor."

Gu Xi couldn't understand: "It's inexplicable, if the two are happy and don't rush to fall in love, why don't you play Korean dramas here?"

Xia Shui was irritable: "Don't worry about it, just drive your car."

Gu Xi was silent for a moment, and speculated solemnly: "It must be that he has a personality problem."

Xia Shui propped his face and looked out the window, with an evasive gesture: "..."

Gu Xi said indifferently: "Actually, you don't have to like him, it's better to recognize the reality earlier,... I don't think you are really suitable."

Xia Shui didn't listen carefully to what he said, and turned a deaf ear. He said "um" a few times, which was considered perfunctory.
