Chapter 4

When Xie Yaoqi walked out of the examination room, her footsteps were floating, and she was in a daze.

Ji Chen saw that he looked devastated, he was too shy to bring up the matter of going to the supermarket, and he didn't know how to start a conversation.At this time, any comfort seems to be ineffective, it will only make people feel that he is standing and talking without back pain.

On the contrary, Xie Yaoqi herself remembered that Ji Chen mentioned in the morning that she was going to go shopping when she was done.At this moment, he has no idea, even if he stays alone in the practice room, he will be too flustered to practice, so he might as well go out for a walk to relax.Xie Yaoqi took the initiative to remind Ji Chen that he wanted to leave this nightmare examination room early.

Ji Chen shook his phone, yelled at Mi Le and Su Yu who were not far away, and reminded, "If you have anything to buy, send a message to the dormitory group."

Mi Le turned around and made an OK gesture. He looked relaxed and calm.Xie Yaoqi had to admit that Mi Le performed well today, better than herself and An Mu.

If you ranked first, Su Yu and Ji Chen undoubtedly belonged to the upper circle; Mi Le, Lin Kaifeng, and Xu Yue belonged to the middle circle; and he fell into the lower circle with An Mu and Xia Tian, ​​almost stepping in with one foot. The circle that was eliminated.

"It's fine if you finish the exam, don't worry too much about it. There will be extra points tomorrow, and there will be opportunities then." Seeing that he has been silent, Ji Chen squeezed out a few words of comfort and encouragement.

Xie Yaoqi nodded absently.But to be honest, among the eight of them, the bonus items only have an advantage for trainees like Ji Chen, Lin Kaifeng, and Xia Tian who have rap and dance expertise.

Needless to say, rapping, there must be a Rap in the team.As long as Ji Chen's performance is not outrageous, the examiner will definitely give high marks out of consideration for the team.

As for dance, although there is also this item in the basic assessment, because the examiner sets the questions and the test is based on the basic level, the range of performance that the trainees can perform is very limited.In the extra points project, Lin Kaifeng and Xia Tian can choose difficult songs to show off their dancing skills.At that time, I'm afraid that even Xia Tian, ​​who didn't perform well today, will surpass himself.

Ji Chen patted Xie Yaoqi on the back, "I'm going to buy daily necessities, and you are going to buy snacks and drinks. There are all varieties in the group. Remember to check the production date of milk."

"Understood." Xie Yaoqi responded, and walked into the supermarket with Ji Chen and a cart.

He was still thinking about the assessment. If he didn't make any mistakes, he would definitely be no worse than Mi Le.He has been in the preparatory class for so long, and the days and nights before the preparatory class, is it going to end because of a mistake in the assessment?Xie Yaoqi was not reconciled.Taking a step back, even if he made a mistake, if Mi Le hadn't been airborne, his performance would have been better than An Mu's, at least he could have stepped on the edge of the safety zone.

Xie Yaoqi took a carton of milk from the front of the shelf, walked to the next row of shelves, and remembered that Ji Chen said that it depends on the production date.

This supermarket is located near their dormitory, in a remote location and sparsely populated. Although the items are complete and affordable, the clerks are not distracted, and the products are updated slowly.

Xu Yue once drank their expired orange juice before, and had diarrhea for several days. Since then, he has lived a healthy life of hot tea and wolfberry.

Xie Yaoqi glanced at it, turned around and walked back to the refrigerated area for a few steps, but stopped halfway, staring at the eight numbers printed in bold.He knew that Mi Le wanted to buy this milk, and the young master would drink a cup every morning.

Xie Yaoqi pursed her lips. Under normal circumstances, Su Yu would not touch other people's things, but Ji Chen...he tried to convince himself that Ji Chen didn't like milk very much, and usually only drank it when there was no other drink.

Thinking of this, Xie Yaoqi took a deep breath, put the can of milk back into the shopping cart, and walked straight to the cashier.

Not long after, Ji Chen also finished shopping, pushing the shopping cart and raising a glance at Xie Yaoqi who was waiting outside the cash register.Xie Yaoqi knew that this was just a greeting, but he could always see the ease and pride of a winner from Ji Chen.

Xie Yaoqi clenched the shopping bag in her hand and gritted her teeth.He admitted that he was jealous of Ji Chen and Su Yu, and he didn't want to care about whether they would drink the expired milk. Anyway, they were a Rap and a C lead singer. Even if they missed the exam the next day, the company couldn't let them go Removed from the debut list.

Miller is different.Once he fails the exam, he will definitely be eliminated. If the company insists on taking him, it can only show that he has a background and will definitely arouse the indignation of others.

That's right, Xie Yaoqi thought, she just wanted to make sure that Mi Le had been ordered by default, not to mention that the milk was only two days out of date, so nothing might happen.

Xie Yaoqi was thinking while carrying the box of milk back to the dormitory, trying to make her conscience feel better.

The second day's assessment was in the same order as the first day, with Mi Le ranked third.

When Xu Yue entered the examination room, he acted uncharacteristically, instead of going to the practice room next door to warm up, he sat in the corridor with a cup of hot water, facing the hot air conditioner at the corner.The thick coat on his body was not taken off, and the whole person was covered tightly, but the cold sweating body failed to warm up, and the back of the hand was still cold.

He carefully picked up the scalding hot tea and took a sip, not daring to drink too much, for fear of going to the bathroom later.It took a lot of energy to go back and forth, but now he just felt dizzy, his limbs were weak, and it was not easy to stand up.I was fine in the morning, but I suddenly developed a stomachache on the way to the company.

He went to the pharmacy to buy antidiarrheal medicine, but the effect was not obvious, and his abdomen was still throbbing.Fortunately, he was at the top of the list. Both Xu Yue and Lin Kaifeng only performed one show. Counting the preparation time and scoring, it only took half an hour to survive.

Mi Le felt that he could persevere, but he also had to persevere.There is no make-up exam for the final assessment, and no one will give him a second chance.

When Lin Kaifeng was about to enter the arena, Mi Le finally stood up and staggered into the next practice room. He had to start warming up.However, as soon as he took off his warm coat, he felt his stomach churn and his body felt cold.

Mi Le didn't even remember how he got into the examination room, and what the examiner asked again.There is only one last thought left in the drowsy brain-in any case, the performance can't go wrong.

He has no special skills, and he chose the strategy of preferring excess to excess in the assessment of extra points, which involves every responsibility.Mi Le first performed a self-playing and self-singing song on the electronic piano. The song was a classic pop song, which he adapted, adding a short rap, and then performed a 3-minute dance.

Mi Le didn't know whether his performance was good or not, and he didn't have time to observe the expressions of the examiners, but he checked every detail, even if he wasn't brilliant, he didn't make any fatal mistakes.

When Du Zhuojie told him in a cold voice that it was okay, Mi Le felt that all the strength in his body was taken away, and his stomach convulsed.

Su Yu, who was next to take part in the assessment, was waiting at the door. In his opinion, Mi Le played very well. He was about to praise him, but he saw the other party staggering out and trotting out, pushing away his outstretched hand.Before Su Yu could react, Mi Le fell headlong into the trash can in the corridor, and a sour smell wafted through the corridor with the sound of vomiting.

After hearing the movement, others poked their heads out one after another.Ji Chen was dumbfounded, "Is this because I didn't perform well, so nervous that I vomited?"

Su Yu was the first to react, squatting beside Mi Le, and patted him on the back.After Mi Le vomited, he collapsed and sat on the ground weakly, his stomach still throbbing.Su Yu supported his crumbling body and let him lean into his arms.

"Where is it uncomfortable?" He asked in a deep voice, wiped the stain on the corner of Mi Le's mouth with a tissue, and gave Ji Chen another look, asking him to pour a cup of hot water.

Mi Le shook his head, trying to say that he was fine, but he couldn't exert any strength, and finally he could only say three words honestly in a weak voice, "Stomach hurts."

"I'll drive you to the hospital." Su Yu brought him up with a half hug and half hug.

Seeing this, Xie Yaoqi hurriedly reminded, "There is still an assessment! Su Yu, you will be next, and you are not going to take the exam?" He was surprised, with evasive eyes trying to cover up his uneasiness and panic.

"I……"

Su Yu really didn't care about the exam at this time, Mi Le's face was pale, and he looked very serious.Fortunately, Xu Yue was still rational and stopped him, "You go to the exam, Kaifeng and I will send him there."

Su Yu pursed his lips and wanted to say something.Mi Le broke free from his arms first, "I'm fine, you go to the exam." He barely supported himself.

The examiner sitting in the examination room got a little impatient waiting, Du Zhuojie came out and urged, Su Yu couldn't really put aside the examination and just said in a hurry, "I'll go there after the exam."

Miller nodded.

After arriving at the hospital, Xu Yue helped register for the doctor, while Lin Kaifeng sat with Mi Le and waited.Although he usually doesn't talk much, and seems to be concentrating on dancing, he also has a caring side.When he came out, he walked in a hurry. Mi Le was not wearing a coat, so he took off his sweater and lent it to Mi Le, and poured hot water for him to cover his hands.

After a series of examinations and tests, Mi Le was diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis.The doctor prescribed medicine for him and told him to hang water in the observation room.Not long after, Su Yu passed the assessment and rushed to the hospital.

There were not many people in the observation room, and the seats around Mi Le were all vacant. Lin Kaifeng and Xu Yue sat across from him to accompany him.Su Yu walked over quickly, but after realizing that Mi Le was resting with his eyes closed, he deliberately lowered the sound of his footsteps, sat gently beside him, and carefully moved his head from the cold wall to his shoulders.

Mi Le muttered a few times in a daze, opened his eyes and squinted.

Su Yu comforted, "It's me, lean over to sleep and feel better."

Mi Le responded, and closed his eyes again, not knowing if he heard it.

Su Yu greeted Xu Yue and the others, briefly understood Mi Le's situation, and he was relieved after making sure that there was no major problem.As meal time approached, Su Yu asked Xu Yue and Lin Kaifeng to go out for dinner first, and bring back some light porridge and snacks by the way.

Not long after the two left, Mi Le woke up. When he opened his eyes, he saw Su Yu's hand resting on the armrest to make him sleep more comfortably.

Mi Le suddenly remembered when he was a child. He remembered that Su Yu practiced the piano since he was a child. His slender fingertips danced nimbly on the black and white keys, weaving one moving melody after another.

"woke up?"

Mi Le raised his head upon hearing the sound, and looked straight into Su Yu's eyes. Perhaps because his mother was European, his pupils were lighter in color than ordinary Asians, a little grayish green.The distance between them was very close, and Mi Le could clearly smell the faint scent of Su Yu's body, which smelled very good, like a large ball of white cotton falling on his face, soft and numb.

"Are you more comfortable?" Su Yu asked, frowning.

Mi Le nodded and reluctantly got up from his shoulders.Su Yu raised his hand to straighten his sleepy hair, pulled up the sweater covering his body, and said softly, "Are you hungry? Xu Yue is going to buy food and will be back soon."

"Not hungry." Mi Le said angrily.

He suddenly remembered that the night before yesterday, Su Yu said that they had known each other for three years.But in fact, their real meeting happened when Mi Le was 12 years old.Su Yu lived in the villa next to their house and spent an unforgettable Christmas holiday with him.It was only a short month before and after, and for Su Yu, maybe it was a memory that he didn't know where he had been thrown for a long time, or maybe those bits and pieces had never been taken into consideration by him.

But for Mi Le, that month was his confidence every day and night in a foreign country, and Su Yu gave him a vague throbbing and longing.The heartbeat of a young man only needs a moment, but it is long and deep enough, so that when the 16-year-old Mi Le learned of his whereabouts, he resolutely came here—by Su Yu's side, regardless of his family's surprise and worry.

When Xu Yue and Lin Kaifeng bought two servings of hot porridge and came back, Mi Le had no appetite and was dispirited.Su Yu put his share aside, first helped Mi Le open the plastic cover, poured the meat floss and pickles into it, and coaxed patiently, "Eat something if you don't have an appetite, it's even worse for you to be hungry."

Mi Le obediently picked up the spoon again, and put back his little temper.In fact, it doesn't matter whether Su Yu remembers it or not. Mi Le didn't mention his past plans. He is already very content to be able to stay by Su Yu's side.

Just occasionally, occasionally a little bit of greed.Mi Le took a sip of the hot porridge, raised his eyes and peeked at Xu Yue and Lin Kaifeng who were sitting in the distance, and after confirming that they couldn't hear, he muttered softly, "It would be nice if we could debut together."

Su Yu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled lightly, "Yes, you performed very well."
