Xiang Yutang didn't want to waste so much time chatting with the dance teacher. She pulled Zhuo Ziyu out. Zhuo Ziyu knew what she was up to just by looking at her impatient steps. Although she was reluctant, she still consciously changed her direction.
Xiang Yutang turned a corner and was suddenly hugged by a hand that stretched out.
Smelling the familiar scent on the person behind her, Xiang Yutang didn't need to think to know who it was.
Zhu Zhengchu hugged her gently and said, "I miss you so much."
Their situation was even more painful than not being able to see each other, because they could see each other but couldn't say hello.
Xiang Yutang was too embarrassed to say that she missed him too. She whispered and complained, "Didn't we see each other the whole day today?"
"But I couldn't get close to you."
Zhu Zhengchu had never felt so disgusted with his identity as an entertainer before.
The two talked in the corner for a while, and then Zhu Zhengchu pulled Xiang Yutang back to his dormitory. There were sushi and ramen that Xiang Yutang loved to eat prepared for her inside, but Xiang Yutang's interest was rarely not on the food.
"You put on makeup today. Did you do it specially for me?" Zhu Zhengchu looked at her tenderly.
Xiang Yutang scratched her head shyly. "No. I just happened to be in the mood!"
"Little girls who tell lies will be punished." Zhu Zhengchu lowered his head and looked at her. The two got closer and closer. Xiang Yutang shyly took a few steps back. "Um, let's eat first!" Although they had kissed before, she still couldn't fully accept kissing.
Zhu Zhengchu was also afraid of scaring her, so he didn't go any further. It was extremely sweet when the two ate together. They would look at each other from time to time.
Xiang Yutang originally wanted to maintain a ladylike image and not eat too much. But the training today was so intense that she was really hungry, so she couldn't help eating more than Zhu Zhengchu.
Zhu Zhengchu didn't mind at all. Instead, he thought she was quite cute.
"If you don't want to go tonight, I can find an excuse for you."
Although Xiang Yutang really wanted to stay with him, she thought of her teammates who were still practicing and felt reluctant to leave. After hesitating for a long time, she still shook her head. "I'll go back and practice for a while."
Before, she thought that participating in the show was just her own business. But after so long, she understood that so many people had come here with all their efforts. She didn't want to hold her teammates back.
Hearing her say this, Zhu Zhengchu didn't force her to stay.
"Then I'll come to pick you up later."
"Come on, it's just a short way. You're tired today. You should rest first!" Although she really wanted to see him, she was still reluctant to let him stay up late with her.
Zhu Zhengchu smiled. "If you guys stay up that late, I'll definitely have to stay up too. Remember to wait for me later. I'll try to get there earlier."
Xiang Yutang's ears turned slightly red. "Okay!"
"Did you tell Ziyu about us last night?" Zhu Zhengchu tried to test her reaction.
Xiang Yutang nodded. "I did!"
"What did Ziyu say?"
"Ziyu didn't say anything. I feel like she supports us!"
Hearing what Xiang Yutang said, Zhu Zhengchu felt relieved.
After the two finished eating, they sat on the sofa for a while. Strangely enough, in the past, when the two chatted on the sofa, Xiang Yutang could talk to Zhu Zhengchu non - stop for a whole day. But today, she was inexplicably shy, and it was always Zhu Zhengchu who took the initiative to find topics.
"Do you want to be on the same stage as me for the third public performance?" Zhu Zhengchu deliberately asked her like this.
Xiang Yutang deliberately did the opposite. "Who said that? I want to be on the same stage as the dance teacher! You guys won't let me sing."
Zhu Zhengchu grabbed her little hand and rubbed it in his palm. "Huh? Do you really not want to be on the same stage as me?"
Xiang Yutang said arrogantly, "If you want to be on the same stage as me, I can reluctantly agree to you!"
Zhu Zhengchu bowed his head first. "Okay, then I want to be on the same stage as you. Please be on the same stage with me, Yutang, okay?"
Xiang Yutang thought for a while. "But you're a singer, and you guys won't let me sing. What are we going to perform together? Am I still going to perform with musical instruments?"
"We can play the piano together." Zhu Zhengchu had already thought about what to perform.
Xiang Yutang said, "Let's wait and see. Maybe I'll be eliminated this round."
"You'll be eliminated? Then this show might not be able to go on. Have you checked your current ranking?"
Xiang Yutang shook her head. She had been so busy recently that she hadn't paid much attention to this.
Zhu Zhengchu took out his phone and showed it to her. "Look, you're the first by a huge margin, and the number of posts in your super - topic has exceeded 100,000."
"These posters should be the company's trolls."
Xiang Yutang looked at the so - called "Xiang Yutang Anti - black Team" and "Xiang Yutang Data Team" and couldn't help laughing. One day, she actually had these.
Zhu Zhengchu said, "These aren't. These are all posted by your fans who like you. But the anti - black team and the data team are arranged by the company." After all, Xiang Yutang was the apple of his eye now, and Zhu Zhengchu wanted to control everything about her personally.
Xiang Yutang looked at the "From north to south, Yutang is the most beautiful" all over the super - topic and laughed. "Who came up with this slogan?"
Zhu Zhengchu said, "Maybe it was thought up by the fans privately. Don't you like it?"
"No, I like it very much." Xiang Yutang used to think that she didn't care whether she had fans or not. But at the moment when she saw these things, she always felt that her heart was filled. In the following competitions, even if not for herself, she would work hard for these fans!
Zhu Zhengchu said, "You're still on the rise now. You'll only get more and more popular in the future."
Xiang Yutang propped her head up and looked at him. "Will I be as popular as you?"
She had quite big ambitions. Zhu Zhengchu smiled. "As long as you want, I can make it happen." If others wanted to achieve his level of popularity, it might take five or six years and they might not even succeed. But for Xiang Yutang, Zhu Zhengchu was sure that he could do it within a year. Because besides singing, Xiang Yutang was basically all - round in other aspects.
"Tangtang, can you act?" Zhu Zhengchu still wanted to help her get acting scripts in the future.
Xiang Yutang said seriously, "I can perform Chinese opera! If you don't believe me, I'll perform a segment for you!"
"No no no, there's no need. If you have an interest in acting, I'll reserve suitable scripts for you when I see them."
Xiang Yutang got excited. She was half a drama queen anyway. "Really? Can I play a crazy doctor like you?!"
Zhu Zhengchu thought of that familiar crazy doctor meme again.
"You little girl, why do you like such roles?"
"I think it's really exciting. Don't you think so?"
"Okay okay okay. If there's such a role next time, I'll reserve it for you, okay?"
Xiang Yutang blushed and said, "Actually, it doesn't have to be a crazy doctor. If I can act in the same script as you, that would be okay too!"
