After the concert ended, it entered the closing stage. Zhou Ziyu walked slowly down the aisle one step at a time, staying behind the crowd without any rush. At the same time, like other audience members, she looked back from time to time to glance at the stage and the still-lit lights. , the large screen displaying the exo logo obviously seems to be a bit unfinished. Lan
But besides that, she would take out her phone and take a look from time to time, not knowing what she wanted to see.
Suddenly, the phone in my hand vibrated. When I picked it up and looked at it, my expression suddenly became vivid.
"Not yet, there are too many people and we were queuing up just now."
Not long after Chi Jingyuan sent it, he came back within a few seconds of replying. It was estimated that the girl had been looking at her phone the whole time.
"Would you like to come backstage and take a look?"
Type quickly to send. The reason why I suddenly thought of this was that in addition to the fact that all the other members had gone to meet friends and family, it was also because Chi Jingyuan suddenly remembered that during a previous chat, Zhou Ziyu seemed to have mentioned that he was worried about the performance during the first tour. The background is very interesting.
It just so happened that I was fine now, thinking that she was alone again. Lan
"Now? Is that okay?" There was some liveliness in his tone, and he was obviously moved.
"Where are you now?"
"We are queuing up at the exit of Area D to go out." Zhou Ziyu glanced at the road sign in front of him, stopped moving, lowered his head and replied quickly.
"It's quite close. Don't go out. Go back and circle around the outside of the field to the exit of Area D. There is a very obvious sign there. Wait there."
"Okay, I know!"
After making an appointment, Chi Jingyuan put his phone in his pocket, took out a mask and hat from his bag and put it on to disguise himself, opened the door and walked out quickly.
After a period of orderly dispersal, most of the spectators in the gymnastics arena have left. The venue that was crowded just now is now much empty, with only a few scattered fans still wandering around and chatting. While walking, there were also some spectators who left at the end, perhaps because they were reluctant or for special reasons. Lan
This time the venue has planned areas according to categories a, b, and c. Area d where Zhou Ziyu is located is relatively close to the stage, and the entrance and exit are not far away.
Chi Jingyuan walked quickly without encountering many waves of people, and soon arrived at the appointed location.
When I turned the corner and looked over there, I saw a familiar figure standing by the wall directly below and to the left under a sign hanging above that marked 'Zone D'.
Even though he was standing next to the wall, he did not lean on it. Instead, he stretched his waist and stood upright. After several meters, he felt that his posture was good. At this time, Zhou Ziyu was carrying a small bag and pulled it to the side, covering it with both hands. The phone was placed in front of him, his big eyes looking left and right, and from time to time he would pick up the phone and take a look.
She didn't know whether she heard the footsteps or had a tacit understanding. When Chi Jingyuan just turned around, she happened to look over. After seeing the well-disguised Chi Jingyuan, she immediately recognized him at the first sight and hurriedly recognized him. He grinned and waved cheerfully.
Taking two steps closer, Chi Jingyuan looked at Zhou Ziyu who was getting closer and closer. This girl was wearing the Jigglypuff baseball cap that she liked very much. Her dyed brown hair was spread down from both sides. She was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt with white stripes. It looks quite simple. A smiling face on the left side of the chest adds a childish feel, but the tight style slightly outlines a girl's growth curve.
The lower body is denim shorts that don't go over the knees. The healthy calves are hanging out. Because she stands upright, the lines look a lot longer. She wears flat shoes with hooks on her feet, and the white skirt is exposed at the ankles. The edge of the socks, combined with her big bent eyes and smiling face, gave her a sense of youthfulness and liveliness. Lan
The overall appearance is still nothing special, but after taking a look at Zhou Ziyu's black short-sleeved shirt, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but look down at what he was wearing at this time...
It happened to be the black short-sleeved shirt that I wore specially for the last stage of the concert. It was also black with white text, and there were a few English letters of 'exo plant' and the combined logo on the chest. I didn't have time to change my clothes when I came back just now.
If you don't look carefully at the difference in the patterns, the two people's clothes look like the same style of couple's clothes at a glance.
It just felt interesting. Chi Jingyuan didn't dwell on it. He quickly walked to Zhou Ziyu's side and faced the happily smiling person. After looking at him, he nodded his chin, frowned and said with disgust:
"I told you not to come. How can anyone watch the concert?"
"hey-hey……"
Zhou Ziyu pointed her front teeth at the other person and smiled without any annoyance. She was teased two or three times in a row. She had already seen that Chi Jingyuan was joking.
"Why don't you find a familiar friend to come with you?" Chi Jingyuan raised his hand and motioned for her to follow. Then he took the lead and turned around and walked along the aisle towards the backstage. At the same time, he said: "Didn't you say that you and Song Do you have a good relationship with Minying, do you still live in the same room as roommates?"
"Hmm...it doesn't feel right." She shook her head lightly and didn't say much.
Due to her own personality and nationality, Zhou Ziyu doesn't have many friends in JYP. In addition, she has not grown up at all in the past two years and is just a childish little black girl with no charm. Her social circle consists of a few familiar Xia Xia. It’s a pity that many of the Chinese trainees have left JYP.
This is even more true after joining "Sixteen". I wasn't very familiar with each other before, and everyone is still competing with each other in order to debut. Either I will squeeze out your position, or you will squeeze out my position, to be able to be in front of the camera. It's already very good to show her happy and cheerful appearance. Chi Jingyuan heard her say that she doesn't usually communicate much in private, and there are many laugh groups. That is to say, after being divided into groups, she talked a little more with the trainees in the same group and became familiar with them. Some.
"Why do you suddenly want to show me the backstage?" Zhou Ziyu followed Chi Jingyuan step by step, not completely side by side but slightly behind by half a body. At the same time, he also took the initiative to change the topic and looked up at the other party curiously.
"Didn't you say last time that you wanted to go in and have a look?"
Chi Jingyuan said casually, turned his head and glanced at her for a second. He was a little embarrassed to see the look on the girl's face suddenly light up, and then waved his hand: "But the main thing is that I have nothing to do now." Lan
"whee……"
Quan pretended that he didn't hear the last sentence, Zhou Ziyu couldn't help but become happy, and speeded up his pace slightly to keep up.
The two of them walked back along the aisle while chatting, keeping their voices very low. Occasionally, Chi Jingyuan, an audience member who had not yet left, would stop talking and speed up to avoid being noticed by fans.
His disguise is still effective when facing ordinary passers-by, but it is really not enough when facing fans. Many fans can recognize their idols just from their backs without looking at their faces or fronts at all, like It was Kim Taeyeon who once went out to play in private. She was wrapped up tightly with only one eye exposed. As a result, a fan behind her recognized her by looking at her ankles.
Most of the people who came to the concert today were exo fans and were very familiar with Chi Jingyuan, especially since he forgot to change his clothes when he came out, which was a bit sloppy.
Fortunately, at this time, there were not many people in the entire venue.
"Is that song "Boy with Love" your new song next month?"
"Yeah, the main one."
"It sounds really good. I can sing it after listening to it once, oh, my my my~~"
"It's out of tune..."
"ah?"
He mercilessly hit Zhou Ziyu who sang out loud despite his own abilities. Seeing the surprised grimace on his face, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh.
At this moment, there was a burst of slightly messy footsteps from the corner ahead, and at the same time a few words of chat in Korean were also heard. After hearing this, Zhou Ziyu quickly shut her mouth and stopped making any sound, and followed silently. Go forward.
But Chi Jingyuan had a strange expression on his face when he heard the voice. Although he hadn't met her yet, he already knew who it was. Lan
Sure enough, two seconds later, several figures walked over from the corner. At a glance, they knew that they were the people from Red Velvet. Bae Zhuhyun and Jin Yelin were walking arm in arm at the front, and they were talking to Kang Seulqi and Sun Seungwan from behind. Whatever people say, listening to the content is also discussing the stage of the concert just now.
"Forehead……"
People on both sides met each other. Pei Zhuxuan saw him at first sight, and then the three members next to him were stunned when they saw Chi Jingyuan's figure.
Even though they were wearing masks and hats, this disguise had no effect on familiar friends and close people like them. They recognized him at a glance. Pei Zhuxuan's eyes lit up just now, and his smile appeared as if he wanted to say hello. , but then they immediately saw Zhou Ziyu who was following Chi Jingyuan with a fair face and looking over.
Seeing this somewhat familiar face and that Jigglypuff hat, the expressions of several people suddenly became exciting.
Pei Zhuxuan glanced back and forth at the black short-sleeves worn by Chi Jingyuan and Zhou Ziyu. The smile was still on his face, but he didn't speak and blinked at him.
"What a coincidence?" Lan
He felt a strange atmosphere, but Chi Jingyuan looked very natural. He looked at the faces of several friends and saw that there were no other ordinary spectators around, so he simply took off his mask. , took the initiative to say hello.
He switched from Chinese to Korean and slowed down his speaking speed.
"Oh, Jingyuan, we were talking about you just now..."
It seemed that the weird atmosphere before had been broken. Jiang Seulqi breathed a sigh of relief and approached with a hearty smile on her face: "Because there were too many people just now, we waited until the end and most of the people left before leaving their seats. , I didn’t expect to meet you here, what a coincidence.”
"Which relative is this?" Jiang Seqi looked at Zhou Ziyu, smiled and nodded and asked curiously.
Her impression of Zhou Ziyu was not that deep. She just felt a little familiar and couldn't remember where she had seen him before.
But Pei Zhuxuan felt that this scene suddenly had a familiar feeling. She raised her head and glanced at the pattern on the hat on Zhou Ziyu's head. Before Chi Jingyuan could introduce it, she smoothed her hair and looked at Zhou Ziyu, and said with a smile: "Is it... Tzuyu Xi?" Lan
"Ah, ah." Zhou Ziyu responded quickly when her name was called and bowed obediently.
She knew Red Velvet, and she had a pretty deep impression of Pei Zhuhyun and the others.
"Her Korean is not very good..." Chi Jingyuan looked back, and then looked at Pei Zhuxuan in surprise: "You actually remember her?"
"Of course, haven't we met before at the showcase? You also introduced me specifically." Although Pei Zhuhyun didn't take the initiative to say hello because he suddenly saw Zhou Ziyu when we met just now, his expression was very natural throughout the process and he always kept a good look on his face. After hearing this, she glanced at Chi Jingyuan angrily, then smiled at Zhou Ziyu with flashing eyes, and at the same time, she thoughtfully slowed down her speech.
"Tzuyu xi, a trainee of jyp, didn't you forget that we met me once during the showcase in 2013?" She turned around and followed the two members behind to give them a few words, then she leaned into Jin Yelin's ear and whispered He introduced: "A relative of Jingyuan..."
"Hey Yigu, I remembered it." Upon hearing this, Jiang Seqi and Son Shengwan looked at each other, and after reminiscing, they quickly remembered.
Although they weren't really impressed, and they were only trainees from other companies who were unfamiliar with Chi Jingyuan, but because of Chi Jingyuan's relative status, they had no airs at all and waved to Zhou Ziyu with a warm smile. Lan
"Anihasay..."
"Anihasay..."
The two sides greeted each other, but Chi Jingyuan clearly felt that when Zhou Ziyu, who was still a trainee, faced these senior sisters who had debuted and had become celebrities, even though the other party smiled enthusiastically, he still I was a little embarrassed and kept saluting when I said hello.
"Jingyuan, your first performance this time was great. The lighting and stage settings were very unique, and the atmosphere was really good. Among the concerts I have ever seen, this one should have the best atmosphere and stage effects..."
"This is the first time I've heard the finished studio version of "Boy with Love". It sounds absolutely great..."
"Is this the song you said is better, or is the feat you made better?"
"Ah ha ha ha, they all sound good!" Lan
We happened to bump into each other and just chatted for a while. Sun Shengwan and the others seemed to be very satisfied with the concert they had just watched and had a lot of emotions. When the topic was brought up, they felt a little excited, and there was a hint of admiration in their appreciation. I was envious and praised my previous first performance very much.
After chatting for a while, the audience in the venue had almost dispersed. Pei Zhuxuan forgot about the quiet venue. He turned around and glanced at Zhou Ziyu behind Chi Jingyuan, and shook his forehead. Liu Hai'er seemed to have just remembered it, and asked with curiosity in her eyes: "By the way, what are you..."
She raised her chin, her meaning obvious.
"Oh, it's break time now, and Tzuyu happens to be alone again. Let's take her to the backstage for a little tour. The trainees haven't seen her yet..."
Chi Jingyuan seemed to feel something. Following Pei Zhuxun's eyes, he couldn't help but look back. His eyes finally stopped on Zhou Ziyu's hat. He smiled inwardly, but didn't say much and just explained briefly.
"Oh, so..." Pei Zhuxuan nodded knowingly, not feeling inappropriate at all. She seemed to feel that Zhou Ziyu behind Chi Jingyuan was secretly looking at her, and she raised her head and smiled gently at him.
Chi Jingyuan glanced at the few friends who came to Debeibei, especially Jin Yelin, who had not spoken much since they met. She felt that she was not as lively as before. He noticed the emotion in her eyes when she heard "Visit the day after tomorrow" , after two seconds of pause, he took the initiative to ask: "Are you going?" Lan
"I..." Jin Yelin, who had been silent all the time, seemed to be really interested. She was about to say something before she finished speaking. However, before she could say anything, Pei Zhuhyun glanced at her with a smile and looked like a captain. Ni waved his hand in a gesture: "Forget it, I won't bother you. Normally there is no chance. You can take Tzuyu around for a while."
"The audience has almost dispersed. Let's go now and see you later." As she said this, she turned around and greeted her sisters. After Jiang Seulqi and the others said goodbye, she turned around and took the lead in walking. At the same time, she carried her back In front of the sisters and in front of Zhou Ziyu, he gently pushed a piece of loose hair behind his ears, wrinkled his nose slightly towards Chi Jingyuan, glanced at the hair and flicked it past him.
"Why, don't you know them?"
After red velvet left, Chi Jingyuan took Zhou Ziyu a few steps into the backstage. Seeing that she seemed to be still thinking about what happened just now, he asked aloud.
"No, of course I know them. They are members of Red Velvet. They were very popular some time ago. We also learned the dance for "Ice Cream Cake"." Zhou Ziyu shook her head in denial, and then asked curiously: "It's just I’m curious, did any of the seniors also come to watch the concert?”
"Yes, they have been relatively free recently, except for Pu Xiurong who has a personal schedule... By the way, I also gave them their tickets." Chi Jingyuan nodded without thinking much. The two of them had already walked into the backstage. After explaining, he pointed to the rooms in front and said, "That's our lounge over there, where we wait for the time before the performance starts."
"Are you there to change clothes?" After getting the answer, Zhou Ziyu stopped paying attention to the encounter just now. She blinked and looked in the direction Chi Jingyuan pointed in front of her, and asked a more childish and idiotic question. Lan
Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but glance at her: "Usually it's there, but during the performance because time is tight, the assistant will take out the clothes in advance and change them directly near the lifting platform. After changing, they will get ready to wait. "
"Oh, that's right!" He nodded obediently. Many things around him were quite novel to Zhou Ziyu.
On stage, he looks like a glamorous, handsome idol, but backstage he looks completely different.
"Go this way..." After watching for a while, Chi Jingyuan led the way to the entrance behind the big screen. He also met Jin Junmian and his parents and family on the way. He took the initiative to say hello politely without saying too much. Say goodbye to each other if you bother me.
"Basically all the equipment links used are placed here. The large screen and speaker components can be directly connected to the stage from here... But the things here are too messy. It's better to turn on the lights now, but The lighting is very dark during the performance, and staff must be specially arranged to guide us here, otherwise it is easy to get lost.”
While leading the way, Chi Jingyuan pointed at the piles of equipment in front of him and the thick and thin wires that were tangled up everywhere.
"..." Lan
Zhou Ziyu's eyes widened and he looked around like a curious baby. When he passed by a unique speaker, he squatted down and took a look at it. He carefully stretched out his index finger and tapped a thick wire twice. It looked like she was afraid of a sudden leakage and explosion.
"Take you to see the elevator..." Chi Jingyuan also let him play there. After seeing enough here, he took the lead to another area.
"How can you go back alone? Take the subway?"
"Well, it's very convenient to take Line 5 and transfer. You'll be there in a minute."
It took about twenty minutes to take Zhou Ziyu around the backstage of the venue. Zhou Ziyu, who had fulfilled a small wish he had always had, said that he looked very bright and happy, and his steps were jumping when he went out. It's like feeling full after eating.
"Okay, see you next time."
"Bye!" Lan
Chi Jingyuan sent her to the exit of the backstage. Looking at Zhou Ziyu who was smiling and waving goodbye to him, he also smiled and waved before turning and walking in.
