Dayfall

The video was not long, just over a minute, and it was deleted by Guanghua Entertainment with its relationship. However, the Internet spreads quickly and has a wide audience, and there are always people who save it and continue to post it.

In the dimly lit bar, there were not many people, and it seemed that work was almost over, and the wall clock on the wall weakly pointed to 03:30 in the morning.At the beginning, the camera pointed at the background of the waiter brother, calling him to step aside.

The small stage was revealed at this time, and the band members were tidying up the drums and electric guitar lines. When the figures overlapped, the people sitting on the edge of the stage glanced at the camera very clearly.

Li Yubai was an amateur at that time, his hair was shorter and not permed, and he wore a summer black racerback vest, which looked unruly and uninhibited, and his shirt was crumpled in his hands.As if he didn't care about other people's clapping, he put his hands on the floor and wanted to stand up, but he staggered and was supported by the bass player behind him.

The faces of the two were hidden in the shadows at the next moment. What did the bass player say? Li Yubai turned around and leaned against him without expression. White back of the head.

The waiter blocked the camera again at this moment.

The video has finished playing.

"I don't have that kind of relationship with him." Li Yubai said.

This reason is too flimsy to hold water at all.

Chen Ge had a headache: "But this angle really looks like kissing, you still take the initiative!"

Li Yubai insisted: "I haven't."

"What's the matter with the video? Did someone forge it?" Chen Ge pressed the pause button to show him, "The fans just said that you don't have a tattoo on your shoulder, but everyone knows what happened."

Li Yubai originally had a tattoo on the back of his shoulder. After his debut, he was taken to wash it forcibly by his manager at the time, Chu Chang. In fact, he didn’t need to do this step, but his tattoo was a skull, which was very political. Incorrect.Chu Changfan said that if it was Mickey Mouse, he didn't need to wash it. He laughed for a while at that time, who would have thought that it would become his own logo.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Chen Ge sighed and patted the table: "You are determined to find trouble for me one by one, right?! First Jiang Zhuliu, then Pei Mian, I see the next one is Gu Sui or He Lian!"

Gu Sui felt guilty, and was even more silent when he called his name. He Lian smiled: "I'm fine..."

Chen Ge looked at them sideways, without saying a word, and when he turned to Li Yubai, he folded his hands in front of his chest, as if "you tell me how to deal with it yourself", everything was in silence.

He opened his mouth and was about to speak, when Chen Ge hurriedly emphasized as if thinking of something: "Ugly words come first, no, accurate, mention, retreat, team! A man must take responsibility, don't think about how to escape all day long!"

Jiang Zhuliu: "I feel offended, brother, can this matter be changed?"

Chen Ge let him go, still watching Li Yubai.

"I..." Li Yubai rubbed his face, and he didn't look too flustered, "I don't know who took the video. It's been several years, and I don't remember what happened at that time, what day it was It's been a while... But judging from the video, I should be drunk."

Chen Ge didn't expect this, and said desperately: "But you can't save your image if you are drunk! It will only make fans and passers-by think that you indulge yourself, clubbing and messing around all day—"

"I haven't debuted yet, so it's not a big problem." Pei Mian added while holding the phone, without looking up.

"We assume that the person who took the video suppressed this at the beginning and didn't release it. Why is it released now?" He Lian sat next to Li Yubai, holding his leg under the table with one hand.

Li Yubai looked at He Lian, and suddenly his heart calmed down.

He really loves hearing He Lian's calm voice, seeing how he speaks rationally, as if everything can be solved easily.

He Lian smiled at him in relief: "Don't panic, Brother Bai, listen to me—you are free to do anything when you are an amateur. I think the main thing about this matter is not to focus the public's attention on 'clubbing' or 'not late at night. It’s back to the top, but to lead everyone to guess other things, and it’s something for which no evidence can be found.”

Jiang Zhuliu asked, "Guess what?"

He Lian: "Sexual orientation."

Gu Sui immediately understood: "That's right! FALL just released the original song, and the video appeared immediately. At this time, it's confusing. It's nothing more than trying to stir up these nonsense."

What he said is not very pleasant but very real in the world. Idol is a profession that sells dreams and illusory images. It can be imperfect and have flaws, but there must be no "mistakes".

Star chasing girls spend money for their idols because they want to get comfort from him. Whether it is from the perspective of boyfriend or CP, watching him play handsome, pretend to be cute, and interact with designated teammates is all to satisfy her spiritual needs.And who idols like, whether they like men or women, are all secrets that cannot be broken.Once it is punctured, it seems like a dream bubble is shattered, no one will really "can't just forgive him" even if he is suddenly generous.

There are too many monks and too few porridge, there are almost more little idols in domestic entertainment than star chasing girls.

He Lian: "Industry struggle, this is too indiscriminate."

"You guys are all right, but they can't solve the problem." Chen Ge spread his hands, "We are open and honest today, and Ah Bai doesn't avoid everyone, just want to discuss it together."

"I have nothing to avoid. If I haven't done it, I haven't done it." Li Yubai said.

Chen Ge had no choice but to say, "But you can't tell the public that directly—hey, Ah Bai, you can't really be gay, right? You have to make a few plans first and put them there."

His heart felt cold as if he had been doused in cold water.Li Yubai looked at him deeply, his eyes were sharp, staring at Chen Ge until his heart shuddered, and then he said slowly: "I'm not."

"Can you find that bass player?" He Lian turned to Li Yubai and said.

Li Yubai nodded: "Yes."

He Lian: "Find him, hold a press conference with Brother Bai, and clarify that they didn't do anything in the video. After that, the public relations will buy more drafts and hot searches to divert attention, and put this matter on Su Su's Blue Whale concert Yes, announce the list of performers, and the degree of discussion will directly overwhelm this matter."

Chen Ge asked: "What if the bassist refuses?"

He Lian: "Brother Bai and I went to find him and recorded it."

The reporters jammed at the entrance of the company squatted until after nine o'clock and there was no news. The fans had already exploded, but Li Yubai's Weibo stayed on the one that forwarded He Lian, without any movement.

Two days after I was tired of scolding the company, at night, a car quietly drove out of the community and headed for Sichuan East Road.

Li Yubai was wearing a baseball cap, with a few strands of hair curled up from the brim, and tapped the window frame twice with his fingers: "Where did you get such a nice car? Bentley, right?"

"Mushang, I asked my family to deliver it. But it was originally mine. You can see that the license plate is L0309." He Lian said, turning the steering wheel skillfully.

The blue car that suddenly appeared in the underground garage was retro in shape, beautiful in color, and the price was comparable to a flat in an ordinary family. It was also transported from the capital to Shanghai for He Lian to drive.But Li Yubai only said so, sighed, and looked out the window at the night speeding behind him.

With the lights on, he couldn't explain why he felt lonely. He knew that He Lian was with him, and he stayed with him for the past two days as if he was afraid of accidents. He also acted calmly, but there was still something missing in his heart.

Since the news broke until now, he hasn't received a single call from his home, nor has he received any news.

He can imagine the attitude of his parents, maybe they have been so disappointed that they have given up on themselves.

It would be an understatement to say it wasn't sad, Li Yubai leaned his elbows against the edge of the car window, and the wind came in through the gap, making his eyes sore.Stretching out his hand and rubbing it, he only then had a real sense of "it's bad".

Maybe He Lian took care of him too much and protected him too much, Li Yubai thought helplessly.

"That bass player." He Lian tentatively said, in a low voice, "You and him... have nothing?"

"He taught me to play bass." Li Yubai said.

"There's nothing else but this, right?"

Li Yubai withdrew his hand and looked directly at the countdown at the red light at the intersection: "If you want to ask about that video, I used to drink a lot, and I was so dizzy that I didn't know what I would do. I often slept in the locker room until seven or eight. Wake up, drink some water, eat a steamed bun, and then go back to school. I haven’t been in touch with their band for more than two years.”

He Lian said, "I believe in you."

Li Yubai smiled: "Aren't you afraid that you will lie to me?"

"You won't lie at all, I can tell that half a word is wrong." He Lian said, "And I unconditionally believe in the person I like-here, Brother Bai, are you sure they are still here?"

"It should be here." Li Yubai said, pushing down his hat even lower before getting out of the car.

No one is sure if there are paparazzi here, but in the video, the faces of the bass player and the waiter cannot be seen clearly, let alone the interior layout of the bar.He Lian followed Li Yubai from the back door of the alley. Before entering, he looked up at the surrounding streets. There was a small signboard on the bar: Luchuan.

Still the same as then, as if yesterday time reappeared.

At this intersection, he walked in like a nightmare, and met Li Yubai.

"Don't stand still." Li Yubai said, wanting to hold He Lian's hand, halfway through it, he retracted it into the pocket of his coat.

He Lian couldn't help laughing. It turned out that Li Yubai also worried about others sometimes.So he trotted for a few steps, left the memories of the past at the entrance of the alley, and went in with Li Yubai.

He probably hasn't been here for a long time, and the bartenders have changed so much that no one can recognize him.After searching for a while, Li Yubai sat down with He Lian on the high stool next to the bar, and ordered from the bartender:

"Negroni, pour him a glass of soda." Li Yubai said, taking off his hat.

Just as He Lian was about to stop him, the bartender who was wiping the glass with his head down at the bar looked over. He was stunned for a while, and then he leaned forward in disbelief: "Ah Bai?! Why are you here?"

Li Yubai didn't have the expression of reunion after a long absence: "Wine."

"Okay, okay, you're still the same, with the same old taste." The bartender took out a new cup, glanced at He Lian who was next to Li Yubai, whose collar covered half of his face, "A new kid? Do you want to invite him too?" have a drink?"

"He wants to drive." Li Yubai said.

Feeling depressed, the bartender probably guessed the reason, stopped talking and concentrated on work.The band that sang this day was different from the previous style, and it was so noisy that my ears hurt.

After receiving the wine handed over by the bartender, Li Yubai took a sip and went straight to the topic: "Where are Xiaoxi and the others?"

The bartender pouted in the direction of the backstage: "They are in the second half today, you came to find Xiaoxi? Don't be afraid of being photographed by the media again. The big star said it before. They have been talking about you for a long time."

Li Yubai said "um", "It's not very convenient."

The bartender asked, "Shall I call him for you?"

He Lian wanted to speak, but Li Yubai held his hand tightly, so he could only watch and listen to Li Yubai say, "Thank you."

He drank that glass of wine very quickly, and He Lian was worried if he would get dizzy. After asking a question, he said it didn't matter, he drank more than this before, and He Lian had already confirmed that Li Yubai was holding his breath.

He didn't take a sip of the soda water, and pushed it to Li Yubai, who pulled the high stool, trying to push He Lian to his side.He Lian was afraid that he would fall, so he quickly jumped off the stool, moved it and sat on it again, resting his chin on Li Yubai's arm, and whispered to him to calm down.

"I'm fine." Li Yubai said, hooking the inside of Gou Helian's wrist with his fingertips.

Not long after, the bass player came out from the backstage with a dazed face. The bar lights were too dim, and it took him a while to walk away from the crowd and walk to the bar.The bartender finished the task, left a sentence of "you chat", and then avoided with a glass.

Small in stature, he was a little cautious when he met Li Yubai, and stood by the side after saying hello.He didn't recite the bass, didn't change his stage costumes, and he was pretty.

He Lian looked around critically and thought to himself: I am not as good-looking as me.

"Abai." He called Li Yubai, carefully approaching him, "Why are you here today? You didn't tell us before, Ahui and the others wanted to find you—"

"Who took the video?"

Li Yubai's voice was cold, alcohol was on his face, but his eyes sharply caught the breath of the person opposite him.He Lian was also shocked, he felt his wrist was squeezed hard, and he suddenly woke up.

He Lian pressed the start button with the pre-installed voice recorder in his trouser pocket.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Li Yubai waited patiently for a few seconds, then asked again: "Who took the video?"

"Not from the band." The bass player spoke softly, even a little timidly, "You don't want us first... don't you remember? That night, you said that you might not come in the future, and Ah Hui advised you to have a few more drinks .By the wee hours of the morning, everyone was happy that you were starting a new life, but I was sad."

Li Yubai asked, "Did I do anything to you?"

He Lian's heart tightened, and immediately he heard the bass player whisper: "You didn't do anything, you were drunk and couldn't stand upright. I just want to help you, I... have never touched you so close."

"That……"

"But you know, I've always liked you."
