[i7][45 Huanzhuang]

Chapter 12

"Stop!" Huan yelled, "Xiao Zhuang! Stop!"

Zhuang Wu didn't look back, and didn't slow down.He ran with his short boots bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang, he ran recklessly, aroused a lot of people's attention along the way, he couldn't take it anymore - he rushed into the door of the Le Room, turned around and locked it.

"ah,--"

Zhuang Wu screamed in a low voice.At the last second, Huan squeezed his arm into the crack of the door.

"Mr. Huan, take it away."

"do not want!"

"It will hurt!"

"You open the door!"

"Stop being willful!"

"Who is being willful!"

The ring is too loud.

Realizing this, Sogo stopped his movements silently, stepped back, let the ring hit the door, and then closed it with a bang.

"Xiao Zhuang."

Huan approached step by step.

Zhuang Wu had already retreated to the wall, clutching his arm, and turned his head away.It was as if a transparent force was pressing on his neck, making him refuse to look in the direction of the ring.

"why are you crying?"

Zhuangwu still tilted his head stubbornly, and also refused to answer Ring's question.

"—are you—are you in pain too?"

Huan clenched his fist and pressed it against his heart.

Tears had just dried up during the run, but now they welled up again.

"Xiao Zhuang, do you...do you feel the same pain as me?"

Zhuang Wu lowered his head and shook desperately:

"Sorry……"

"Why do you say I'm sorry - if you are in pain, why do you say sorry?"

The colored strips hanging from the ceiling shivered and trembled under the white light, with an unsmooth breathing rhythm.

Zhuang Wu still didn't answer, just shook his head desperately.

"Speak!" Huan roared loudly, "What on earth are you thinking?"

"...Mr. Huan." Zhuang Wu's voice trembled, "Speak softer..."

"Keep your voice down and you won't answer me at all!"

"No, I won't answer you if you shout."

There was even a trace of begging in Zhuangwu's voice:

"The matter is over, Mr. Huan. Don't talk about this topic again..."

"There is no past! You are still crying!"

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have cried... I won't cry anymore..."

"You don't want to disband at all, do you?"

"Mr. Huan, it's meaningless to say this now—"

"Tell me what you think! Do you want to disband!"

"It doesn't make sense for me to tell you!"

Zhuang Wu's voice suddenly became louder.

"No matter what I think, it doesn't make sense! What do I think, don't you really understand!? You have to tell me everything before you know?!"

Huan was dumbfounded.

Zhuang Wu was finally willing to face him directly: there was a faint but blazing anger in his eyes, his lips trembled so much that his voice was distorted, his eye makeup was smudged, and a few colorful black marks stained his always clean and generous face.He clenched his hands into fists, but shook violently.

"I... I thought that if I didn't do MEZZO, I wouldn't bother you anymore..."

Huanyu spat out fragmented sentences incoherently.

"I... I don't know... We agreed, right? When you want to cry, I will help you... But you don't want me to cry for you anymore... When you cry, I'm not allowed to ask... ...I, I...I thought that if you didn't come with me, your dad would stop bothering you and you would be happy..."

Huan's nose and mouth were sour, like a ripe green plum in his mouth, and tears fell down.

"... Huan-jun," Zhuang Wu's shoulders softened, "You have done a good job. As I said, you are already very good..."

"I worked hard, very hard," Huan cried foolishly, "I told myself not to like you anymore, but I failed..."

Zhuang Wu lowered his head.

The lemon in the glass sank to the bottom of the water, and the bubbles on the surface disappeared one by one.

"Xiao Zhuang, you...do you like me?"

Zhuang Wu was silent for a while, trembling, and said softly:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Huan..."

Huan suddenly reached out to grab his shoulder, but he resolutely pushed it away.

"I can't answer this question for you. Some words, I will never answer you."

Zhuangwu walked around the ring, raised his foot and walked outside.

Huan reached out to stop him, but was firmly pushed away.

"sorry."

Zhuangwu raised his head, looked into the eyes of the ring, and repeated the sentence.

Huan snuffed his nose vigorously, and in his blurred vision, he saw Zhuangwu's cloudy but firm eyes.

That look made him cringe for a moment.Sogo just passed him and ran towards the door.

When he opened the doorknob, Zhuang Wu was taken aback for a moment when he saw a crowd of people standing outside.Not only IDOLiSH7's companions, but also Re:vale's Qianhe Bai stood in the front, facing his messy face.

And Zhuang Wu didn't hesitate any longer, and bowed stiffly with a disrespectful gesture that would never be tolerated, apologized, and squeezed out from between the two.

Qianhebai let him go, but walked straight to Lewu.They held Huan's arms from left to right, and pushed Huan, who had finally regained consciousness and chased him out, back into the house.

"I guess you don't like vegetable juice. This one is mango. Or do you prefer peach and apple? I can give you a bottle if I can't help it."

Bai couldn't help but press him on the sofa, and took out a yellow bottle from the refrigerator next to him.Huan didn't speak, his eyes didn't shed any more tears, but they were terribly red, and a stubborn strength came back from him, and he wanted to follow Zhuang Wu to rush out again.Bai had to use all his strength to press on top of him.

"Hey, don't be impulsive. So what if you catch up? He has nowhere to go, and you still force him, what should he do?"

Huan's body froze, and then gradually relaxed.

After a while, Bai Fang let him go.Huan collapsed on the sofa and stopped struggling.

"Here."

Only then did Qian, who watched the two confront each other with his arms folded, bring a makeup remover towel and a towel over.

Huan took it over and covered his face completely.Tears flowed too much, and his face was already dirty.

It is tiresome work to cool down the emotional outburst and clean up the leftover mess.Huan buried her face in a wet towel, and wiped it recklessly.Qianhe Bai looked at him beside him, waiting quietly.

"What...what should I do?"

Huan spoke in the towel, and her voice was muffled.

"No one can tell you what you should do," Qian stood in front of him, "but you should at least know what you shouldn't do."

"What not to do?"

"You shouldn't have to force him to ask him when he doesn't want to answer. As he said, if he doesn't tell you, you don't know? Are you partners, can't you even reach this level?"

"Hello, Yuki."

"I know. It's a harsh word. But he understands what I mean. Don't look at him only 17 years old, he understands much more than when I was 17 years old."

Huan didn't answer, still covering his face with a towel.

"Silly boy." Bai smiled, "I'm sorry, Yuki didn't mean to blame you."

Ring waved his hand away. "Don't touch my head."

"Let senior act like a spoiled child."

"You touch my head as a coquettish?"

"Forget it."

Ring fell silent.Baiben really ruffled Huan's hair, making it a mess.

"I'll be on stage later..."

Ring tossed the towel aside, muttering softly.

"Let's just say that you are very good. You are so sad, and you still want to go on stage."

"If you don't go on stage, it will cause trouble for Xiao Zhuang and everyone. I don't want that."

Ring bowed his head, his voice almost pathetic.

"I know he doesn't like the way it is now, I told him MEZZO" let's break up, and he agreed.I don't want to make him feel bad.But it seems that no matter what I do, he feels sad.I do not know I do not know. "

Bai's fingers stroking Huanhuan's hair became softer.

"Like him so much?"

"Ah."

So Bai didn't ask any more questions.

Qianye stood quietly and said nothing more.Together, the two looked down at the painful and confused teenager.

In the middle of one small room, there was only the slight sound of electric current from the freezer.

"You've been here all the time, okay?"

"Yes." Qian replied, "but I am self-willed and can play big cards. I asked the staff to wait for us."

Huan was teased by him until he burst into laughter.

"It's better to be a willful person."

"is it?"

Facing him, Qian squatted down.

"It's really good. It's not that a wayward person doesn't know what others think, but that he doesn't care if he knows it. For his own comfort, he can pretend that he doesn't hear other people's pain. It's quite easy. You and I are both wayward people, So you should know what I'm talking about."

Ring is a little confused.

"I... I don't understand. I'm not pretending not to hear..."

"Has he ever asked you for help?" Qian's eyes looked over from the opposite side, looking straight into Jinhuan's eyes, "Has he ever asked you for help?"

Huan's eyes were wide open, which is what he usually does when he can't understand other people's speech.

There was no harshness in Qian's eyes.That wasn't even a question, obviously he knew how he would answer it a long time ago.

Behind Huan's tongue, something swung bitterly.It was like the sound of a huge engine before take-off, mixed with some nervous and fearful bumps and vibrations.His mind was blank, and his ears were buzzing violently.

He remembered that night.

It was an unremarkable night.He slept in his room until midnight and got up to go to the bathroom.Starting from the night light in the room, he turned on the lights all the way, the hallway, the washstand, and until he got back to bed, the lights would be on.When he came back, he saw that the curtains of the living room were not drawn; Zhuango was standing there, with the faint moonlight on his body.

Zhuang Wu had his back to the window, facing the darkness, his face was in the shadows, only his hair was glowing with silver.It was a vain, desolate light.

Zhuang Wu noticed that someone had come out, and raised his hand, as if in the middle of the night, as a silent greeting, as if he wanted to apologize, explain, and asked the other party not to mind him standing here alone with the lights on.But seeing that the person coming was Huan, the hand hung there, motionless.

The solitary hand froze for a while, and then let it go in silence.

There was also something in Huan's heart, and it fell down heavily.An inexplicable anger rose in his heart; with a sense of revenge, Huan snapped back and turned off the corridor lights behind him.

Anyway, Xiao Zhuang doesn't need lights.Don't be afraid if you don't turn on the light.

Zhuang Wu remained silent.The twilight suddenly disappeared, and his shape became more blurred.

Huan regretted it, perhaps because of the gradually thickening darkness around him, or perhaps because of the unjustifiable revenge the size of a fingernail.He turned around, fled back to the room without looking back, and closed the door heavily.He stood on the carpet in the middle of the room for a while, turned on the night light again, threw himself back on the bed, and hugged King Pudding tightly.King Pudding, and himself, curled up into a wrinkled ball.

Was he raising and lowering his hand to ask for help?

Is it for help?

"You are a kind child. You have a good heart and know who treats you well. You don't want to intentionally hurt others, especially those who treat you well."

Bai didn't know when he also turned in front of him, and together with Qian, they looked at Huan fixedly.

"But if you don't understand other people's pain, you will definitely hurt others. No, it's not just pain. If you don't want to make others sad, then you must try to understand his joy, sorrow, hope and disappointment."

Huan sat blankly for a long time.

For a long time, the pink and green colored stripes hanging in mid-air turned back and forth, fluttering repeatedly.

"I……"

It was really a long time before he muttered and opened his mouth.

"How can I understand?"

"Really want to know?"

"Ah."

"It's not that easy."

"Hmm. But, I want to know."

Bai smiled, and took out the phone from the bag.

"Do you know why you and Zhuang Wu sang this song today?"

Huan Leng nodded:

"Because a lot of people voted and wanted us to sing."

"Why do you want you to sing?"

"Because... like us?"

"How much do you like it?"

"Then how would I know?"

Bai blinked, unlocked the phone screen, and operated his fingers a few times quickly.

"Leave a homework for you. Go back tonight, open RC, and read it."

Sogo was already there when we looped back to the studio.

He was near the corner, leaning against the wall, with no one else around, and he was alone with his arms folded.Except for a little paler face, any trace of embarrassment has been erased.Sleeves that had been fitted and cut a few months ago felt a little vacant at this moment.

Huan took two steps forward, stopped, and continued walking.

Zhuang Wu didn't look at him, and he didn't dare to go back to him after all.He sat down against the other wall, not too far away.

No one called him, so he just waited there.The music was gone and the staff were walking around.Le and Yamato stood in the distance, talking in low voices.Huan's eyes were looking for a place to land, so they kept looking at them.But after looking for a while, I didn't see anything.

Lu came in with a low cry.

"Ah,—Huan, here it is."

Ring turned his head slowly.

"Lu Lu. Are you looking for me?"

"Nothing," Lu scratched his head. "The instrument is faulty, and I can't do anything...Everyone went back to the Le House and waited for the announcement."

Ring nodded.

Lu was by no means accustomed to dealing with such an atmosphere.He wrung his fingers, waiting for Huan to ask him what he was doing here, but Huan never asked.He stood bewildered for a while, and finally sat down beside Huan.

Lu looked much more cramped than he was, holding his knees for a while, straightening his legs for a while, and reaching out to grab his toes for a while.Huan rolled his eyes, just in time to see him secretly looking towards him.As soon as the eyes met, Lu's eyes flickered in a panic, and turned back to face the front stiffly.

Ring still didn't say anything.

Lu looked down at his hands, and saw a short thread protruding from the tip of the white glove.He used his left hand to pinch the end of the thread in his right hand, and tugged, but couldn't move.The next second, he laughed, as if he thought what he was doing was silly.

He took off his gloves, stretched his fingertips in the air, tapped lightly, as lightly as touching a stamen—and then—began to sing.

——As long as I can exchange smiles with you

I can change anything today

Ring looked at him.

Lu sang very softly and clearly, without a microphone or music, it was thin and thin.Earlier, in the dormitory, this song "RESTARTPOiNTER" was originally a song that anyone would sing casually.The two huddled together in the kitchen and sang while washing dishes, and someone sang while taking a bath.Some people sang it to water the succulents on the balcony, and some people sang it and went out with their schoolbags.Someone sang it, running from one end of the room to the other.

But since the accident with Huan and Zhuangwu, the singing in the house has decreased drastically.Although it is still often sung, it is also on the radio, in fan groups, concerts, and even in today's playlist.But strangely, there seems to be a subtle difference between this kind of singing and that kind of singing.The melody and lyrics are exactly the same, but it seems that it is not the same song at all.

When meeting Huan's eyes again, Lu blinked.

- let's have a new dream

stepondream come together

Solo's few words passed, and Lu did not pause.

I can't see clearly

what is there

I pray in my heart, I want to understand and see

since that day

heartbeat swaying in the chest

General encouragement

kinda scared to yell

But no matter what, this step will be crossed

Let's take the leap Glide

real melody

keep echoing

That's the companion you should face

Why do you turn your head away from him?

If you decide, stick to it.

go bet your all

Unknowingly, the voice got louder.

Lu likes to sing. When he sings, he is the happiest, and when people look at him, he is also the happiest.He would close his eyes and fold his hands over his chest in a prayer gesture that only a flawless heroine in a fairy tale would do.The two staff in the field also stood up and listened, and gave Lu Bi their thumbs.Lu saw it, and smiled at them while singing.

Flyhigh so I always believed

Mercedes Benz crashes as you want

It doesn't matter how many times, go back to the original point

The unrepentant determination engraved on the chest

As long as I can exchange smiles with you

I can overcome any day

Let's have a new dream

Stepondream

come together

The two staff swayed in place for a while, then suddenly realized that they had something to do, and pushed each other away.

Sogo is listening too, right?

Ring cannot be determined.Zhuangwu's figure was always in the corner of his field of vision.I don't know if it was an illusion, but the frozen shape seemed to be trembling slightly; he bit his lip, causing blood to appear on his pale face.

I've been upset all the time, and my vision is blocked

The days are always bumpy

But we met by chance

small happiness

we try to make each other understand

Holding tightly like this and not giving in

Everyone's persistence must be different.

But we are not lost jump

body pain

It's not worth mentioning

It can't be achieved by one person

It's time for this wish

draw it into a definite shape

Let's go to the distance

Makemystage

Turnup is deep in my heart

There are always lingering thoughts

I want to tell you, it's overflowing

Layers of overlapping colorfulvoice

"Lu Lu."

The ring poked his arm.

when you hesitate

Let me give you the courage to feel—

"Lu Lu!"

"...Eh, eh?"

Huan shouted in his ear, and Lu finally stopped.

"Stop singing."

"what?"

"If you sing again, I will cry again."

Before Lu could say anything more, Huan stood up.

"Xiao Zhuang,—"

He turned towards Sogo and yelled loudly:

"sorry--!"

Sougo opened his eyes wide.Huan's slender and strong figure was reflected in his pupils, with a little unskilled clumsiness, but decisively, he bent forward.

If he could look up at Zhuang Wu at this moment, he would find that everything he felt just now was not an illusion.Zhuang Wu's figure was trembling with certainty, the corners of his mouth were tense, and he didn't say a word—then his eyes were tightly closed as if trying to hide something.
