Rival In Business: Chapter 38 Heartbeat

"Can this be broadcast?" Lin Yi questioned her soul directly: "We are a group variety show, not a love variety show!"

Chen Yuan quickly waved her hand: "No, this is just a planning plan. I wouldn't say that when I was actually recording. In short, in this limited day, the one who gets the lucky card must treat his companion unconditionally."

Yan Qi snorted: "In name, it can also be said to be 'Limited One-day Sisters', right?"

Chen Yuan nodded: "Yeah!"

Xu Shuyan asked: "Who is with whom?"

Zhou Shichen put his arm around Yan Qi: "I don't know, anyway, I'm on the team with the captain."

Xu Shuyan & Lin Yi: "?"

Do they have any other choice!

The atmosphere eased a little, but suddenly fell silent at a certain moment, spreading in the small conference room as if it had substance. The sound of the rain was dripping, and outside the blurry glass, there was a video of the five of them cheering on the LED screen of the opposite building.

Girls who shine brightly on stage.

"Do you have to go?" Zhou Shichen said suddenly, tears fell from her eyes, her tone wanted to be calm, but she still trembled uncontrollably: "Why, we clearly said we would be together forever."

Chen Yuan bit her lip: "I'm sorry..."

It's all up to this time, what's the use of saying sorry? There are enough verbal criticisms from the outside world, so what's the point of their accusations?

Xu Shuyan looked out the window, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Lin Yi wiping his eyes.

...crying again?

A sudden irritability rose in her heart, the toe of the Martin boots rubbed against the table leg, and turned to Chen Yuan as if masturbating herself: "What is he like?"

Lin Yi suddenly raised his head and stared at her, as if she asked something that shouldn't be asked.

It is wrong to ask.

Xu Shuyan thought, but she just wanted to ask, no one was the winner in the smokeless war between her and Lin Yi these years. Lin Yi wanted to deceive herself and ignore the winner, but she wanted to tear the truth apart for Lin Yi to see.

This is not about Chen Yuan alone.

There is also a protagonist in this story, he and Chen Yuan grew up together, they had a mutual love, they pierced that layer of window paper at dusk or early morning, they changed from friends to lovers, they love each other, know each other, promise everything they can future.

It was Chen Yuan's love bubble, a thin layer, but she and Lin Yi could never get in.

Zhou Shichen didn't notice the undercurrents before them. Seeing that Chen Yuan didn't speak, he asked, "Yes, what is he like? What does he do?"

"He..." Chen Yuan said, "He designs airplanes and works in a research institute."

"You don't see each other often, do you?" Yan Qi asked.

Chen Yuan nodded: "Seldom see each other."

She hesitated for a moment, but said it anyway: "But we've been fine."

Lin Yi felt pain in her heart, she lowered her head hastily, tears rolled in her eyes, but she was afraid that people would find out the clues, so she could only bear it back, and from the corner of her eyes, she saw Xu Shuyan's hand by her side trembling slightly, her fingertips With a slight movement, he grabbed Xu Shuyan's finger.

It's strange, she thought, maybe Xu Shuyan was her kind, so the moment she caught Xu Shuyan, her heart settled.

Xu Shuyan paused for a moment, and glanced at her from the side.

At this moment, Lin Yi looked very pitiful, tears were being pressed back, but there was still water glistening like nothing, soft and weak like an exceptionally beautiful rose that was abandoned in the wind and rain but bloomed, tempting Passers-by picked her off.

Take her off.

Take her off and take her home, put it in a glass cover, and never have to withstand the wind and rain again.

Take her off.

Let her become someone's exclusive rose.

take her off—

The knock on the door interrupted Xu Shuyan's thoughts, she pulled out her hand hastily, looked at the door, the person who came was the assistant of the group manager, and asked if their small meeting was over, if it was over, let the captain and Chen Yuan go there Continue the meeting.

"I'll just go by myself." Chen Yuan stood up: "The captain hasn't rested after flying back, so go to sleep first."

"How could I possibly be able to sleep?" Yan Qi took a sip of coffee, shook it and sighed: "And it's not just about you alone. I've seen a lot of rumors on the way here just now. It's about the reputation of the regiment."

Yan Qi insisted, and Chen Yuan didn't speak any more.

Although the other three people didn't need to have a meeting, they didn't want to leave at this time. Fang Yi came out and preached: "You guys can't help here, and it's not enough to add to the chaos. Shi Chen went to catch up on sleep, words and small thoughts, You two are going to join the group soon, how is your acting skills?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but argue: "I—"

"The sky won't fall." Fang Yi patted her arm and interrupted her: "No matter what, do your own thing well. Don't get confused."

After finishing speaking, she was still worried, and told Xu Shuyan: "Take care of the youngest of your group."

Lin Yi thought to herself that Xu Shuyan's heart is broken into several pieces now, and she is still optimistic about her. It's not bad if the two of them don't hug each other and cry together, so what...

Before he could finish thinking, someone grabbed his waist and put a belt in his arms, Xu Shuyan's voice sounded: "I see."

Lin Yi looked at Xu Shuyan in surprise.

After Fang Yi left, Xu Shuyan let her go, and said coolly, "Don't look at me like that, I feel bad too. But Fang Yi is right, we can't do anything, so let's do our own thing."

Even though he said so, his mood was not controlled by his will at all. After dancing the wrong dance again, Lin Yi simply gave up and collapsed on the floor of the practice room. buzzing.

Raising his eyes, he saw Xu Shuyan dancing a sweet song expressionlessly.

She couldn't help criticizing: "Xu Shuyan! You manage your expressions! Smile! You are laughing!"

Xu Shuyan was doing the most standard movements, and said the most unpleasant words with the sweetest BGM: "You who lie down halfway have no right to dictate my expression management!"

Lin Yi resentfully said, "I'm telling you to give you all the stage, okay?"

Xu Shuyan ignored her, and without her cooperation, he still moved accurately. When jumping up, the sweater ran up, and the whiteness around his waist also appeared and disappeared, outlining the slender waistline.

Xu Shuyan's waist is really thin.

That time in the hotel in Chakayan Town, she observed it carefully. In the swaying snow-white room, water droplets slid along the **** waistcoat line to more hidden places, and the small moles were washed away clearly.

…very beautiful.

Lin Yi didn't know why she thought of this, she tried to distract her attention as much as possible, and Xu Shuyan was right in front of her eyes, she could only think about things related to Xu Shuyan.

Xu Shuyan likes sweet food, but can't eat spicy food.

Xu Shuyan likes songs that blow up the scene, but occasionally suppresses the Internet.

Xu Shuyan was rated as the most impersonal mentor when she went to the talent show to fly. Only she knew that during the live broadcast on the debut night, when she saw her favorite trainee debut, Xu Shuyan hugged her and cried and cried.

Xu Shuyan likes to snap shots when she sings, she corrects her every time, and Xu Shuyan commits the same crime again and again, but it’s fine to go on stage.

Xu Shuyan loves to buy bags, and half of the cloakrooms in their dormitory are filled with bags. Once she secretly carried one to the airport, Xu Shuyan wrote down a small notebook, saying that she would always come back with revenge.

Xu Shuyan checked the results of the college entrance examination with her at the company. The air conditioner in the computer room was broken. In the hot and tense air, they sweated layer after layer. After the clock ticked, they immediately entered their names. After they both passed, She hugged Xu Shuyan together.

At that time Xu Shuyan was very fragrant.

Xu Shuyan—

There was a snap of fingers next to his ear, Xu Shuyan's voice was muffled in the water: "What are you thinking about?"

Lin Yi blurted out: "Xu Shuyan."

Xu Shuyan sat down beside her: "Huh?"

Lin Yi blinked, and then slowly came back to his senses: "...it's okay."

You can't tell Xu Shuyan that she is thinking of her to divert attention, right? When the time comes, Xu Shuyan will retch and insult himself. She looked out and said, "I don't know if the meeting is over."

Xu Shuyan took out a piece of paper to wipe his sweat: "It's probably still early."

Although Xu Shuyan and Lin Yi are not likely to be influenced by public opinion, this matter is no small matter. Fang Yi is still afraid that it will affect their mentality, so she simply confiscated the mobile phone. They don't know what the outside world is like now.

When he is free, he always thinks wildly, Xu Shuyan pulled Lin Yi up: "Training."

Lin Yi reluctantly sat up, put both hands on Xu Shuyan's shoulders, leaned forward, and fell into Xu Shuyan's arms, Xu Shuyan pushed her: "What are you doing?"

Lin Yi found that this position was quite comfortable, so she clasped her hands together and wrapped them around Xu Shuyan's neck, dissatisfied with Xu Shuyan's movement: "Don't move. I'm so fragile now, let me hold you for a while."

Xu Shuyan moved uncomfortably, but did not push her away.

Lin Yi put her chin on Xu Shuyan's shoulder in a desperate manner, and called her in a low voice: "Yanyan."

Xu Shuyan got goosebumps all over his body: "Speak well!"

Lin Yi: "..."

Father, it's all because she recalled Xu Shuyan in the past for a while, and got so close to Xu Shuyan, smelling the fragrance of Xu Shuyan's body, she blurted out her nickname.

It's really weird.

But she didn't want to admit it, she cleared her throat: "What's wrong? I can't call you Yanyan anymore? I'll call you! Yanyan Yanyan!"

Xu Shuyan: "...get up and dance if you don't talk well."

Lin Yi pulled the corner of his mouth: "Okay."

After a while of silence, she finally said, "Yuanyuan said she loves him very much."

Xu Shuyan was stunned for a moment, then hummed.

"Actually, I'm a little angry." Lin Yi carefully analyzed her heart: "I'm angry that she kept it so well. Is the Chen Yuan I know and like real? Which statement is true and which statement is true?" Are the words false? What did she do with the person she loves when we can't see it..."

Xu Shuyan closed his eyes, raised his hand and patted the back of Lin Yi's head: "Don't think so much."

"I know." Lin Yi turned her face to the side, half of her face was pressed on Xu Shuyan's shoulder, in a posture seeking stability, and she said, "But I can't control it. I'm angry, and I'm also envious."

"Envy..." Xu Shuyan knew the answer, but she still wanted to ask, "What are you envious of?"

"I'm envious of the person she likes." Lin Yi said: "I envy him who knew her earlier than me, I envy him when he met and had Yuanyuan when he was young, I envy him that he can love Yuanyuan openly, I envy Yuanyuan loves him .”

She asked, "Aren't you envious?"

Xu Shuyan said: "...Envy."

"I thought about it again. Our anger and envy are all because we like Yuanyuan. Because we like Yuanyuan, we have such emotions. Because we like it, we can hide these emotions and hope she is happy."

Xu Shuyan smiled.

Lin Yi asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Xu Shuyan stroked the back of her head slowly, her long hair slipped between her fingers, and she whispered, "You are so kind, Lin Yi. As long as she is happy?"

Lin Yi frowned, she gently pushed Xu Shuyan away: "Don't you think so?"

Xu Shuyan lowered his eyes: "The person I like, only I can give her happiness."

Now it was Lin Yi's turn to smile, with a somewhat mocking tone: "Come on, Xu Shuyan, it's already this time, why are you still deceiving yourself and others by saying such things? We two losers, it's a foregone conclusion, isn't it?"

Xu Shuyan didn't speak, but shook his head slowly.

no.

She hasn't lost yet.

The meeting went on into the evening.

When Lin Yi and Xu Shuyan returned home, the rain had stopped. Zhou Shichen had just woken up not long ago, sitting at the coffee table with messy hair eating fried rice, and asked them, "Have you finished chatting?"

Lin Yi said emotionally, "Not yet."

Xu Shuyan asked, "Where's your cell phone?"

Zhou Shichen raised his chin: "On the sofa."

When Xu Shuyan took her phone and asked her to unlock her face, she said, "Stop surfing the Internet. There are all kinds of things on the Internet, fifty hot searches, and twenty are all about our group. It's meaningless."

Xu Shuyan looked at the unlocked phone, hesitated, and threw it aside.

She said to Lin Yi, "Go take a bath first."

Lin Yi didn't want to move: "You go first."

"We've guessed punches before." Xu Shuyan said kindly: "You have the unconditional right to be the first to take a shower. If I'm ahead of you, I'll post on Weibo saying I'm a pig. Don't try to trick me into posting on Weibo."

Lin Yi: "..."

Xu Shuyan is so annoying!

Lin Yi cursed and went upstairs to take a shower, but Zhou Shichen saw it clearly, knowing that Xu Shuyan just wanted Lin Yi to relax, and it would be better to find something to do instead of waiting here.

"You and Xiaoyi have worked hard these two days." Zhou Shichen said.

Xu Shuyan shook her head, she squeezed between her eyebrows, and murmured: "I don't know what the outcome of the meeting will be."

When Lin Yi took a shower and went downstairs, the elf in the living room was playing the white noise of the fireplace. The crackling sound seemed to be by the campfire. Yan Qi and Chen Yuan had already returned. When they heard the sound of going downstairs, everyone followed the sound. come over.

Xu Shuyan waved: "Lin Yi, come here."

Lin Yi looked at their dignified expressions, her heart skipped a beat, she walked over reluctantly, and sat down beside Xu Shuyan. Xu Shuyan's hand was on the sofa, and she hesitated for a while, and put her on it.

With her fingers intertwined, she gained another trace of comfort.

She pretended to be relaxed: "Are you waiting for me? Have the captain and Yuanyuan eaten? I just took a shower and I'm hungry. Which fried rice delivery did you order, Shichen? I want to eat it too."

"Let's eat later." Yan Qi said, "Let me talk about the content of the meeting first."

...Sure enough, with Yan Qi, there will never be any delay.

The back of her hand was patted, Lin Yi was slightly taken aback, and from the corner of her eye, she saw that the person who patted her hand was still looking at Yan Qi seriously: "Captain, tell me."

Yan Qi nodded: "As I said before, this matter is not about Yuanyuan alone, it has affected our entire regiment. It is not easy for the opponent to catch us, and they pour dirty water on all kinds of black articles on the Internet. , and even spread rumors that Yuanyuan's boyfriend is her benefactor."

"So we agreed on a third solution."

"...What is it?" Lin Yi panicked.

"The third solution is neither broken nor established." Yan Qi looked at Chen Yuan and said, "Chen Yuan quit the group and got married."

Xu Shuyan and Lin Yi said in unison: "Married?"

Yan Qi nodded slightly: "Retiring from the group can save the group, and getting married also shows everyone's determination. She is serious, and she will crack the rumors about the sponsor from the source."

"Of course, this matter can also be avoided from becoming a topic again in the future. After all, Yuanyuan and her boyfriend are so in love, they will always get married. When the time comes, I will pull out a draft, so it is better to settle everything now. Netizens are forgetful, and they will get through it." This part is fine."

"But getting married..." Zhou Shichen asked: "Is it too hasty?"

"A little bit." Yan Qi said, "But three months is enough. Yuanyuan will not be involved in the recording of the follow-up reunion show, and will participate in the concert as originally planned to complete the group's stage."

"So far, the Chen Yuan girl group has graduated."

"..."

In the suffocated silence, Yan Qi said, "The meeting is over."

That night, both Xu Shuyan and Lin Yi suffered from insomnia.

To be precise, none of the five members of the Gu Tuan slept well, and finally felt a little sleepy at dawn, and the manager had already knocked on the door with his assistant.

The live broadcast of the press conference began at nine in the morning.

[I rely on? Long time no see! With such a big battle, Chen Yuan won't quit the circle, right? ]

[…I heard that Chen Yuan fell in love before forming a group. The agent knew about it. Now that the apartment collapsed, Chen Yuan was pushed out, right? Melon Entertainment You are a capitalist! ]

[Come on, Chen Yuan's acting skills are quite good, she is my favorite little girl, don't quit! ]

[One thing to say, Chen Yuan is still very good at the ratings, and she is very good at milk dramas. The previous puppet was so cheap, wasn't it because Chen Yuan's Princess Pingting came out of the circle to counterattack? ]

[Why hasn't the live broadcast started yet?]

[The four members of Gu Tuan have also arrived at the scene! I don’t know if we will broadcast live together...I don’t want my daughter goose to participate in such a live broadcast]

[Is the dough okay?]

[Thank you, my best friend is a group fan and has been crying for two days]

[What should our Gu group do...]

[My grass! The live broadcast has started! ]

At the same time, at the backstage of the press conference, the four Gu Tuan also sat up straight. They couldn't accompany Chen Yuan to the press conference, but they insisted on coming to the scene and watching the broadcast in the background.

The live broadcast froze for a while, and when it stopped again, Chen Yuan's face was already in close view.

She put on full makeup to cover her tiredness and fragility. The gentle and soft makeup is not lethal. She brought the microphone standing on the table to her: "Hi everyone, I am Chen Yuan from Thenotes."

As soon as the words came out, her eyes turned red.

"This is the last time I introduce myself like this. As you can see in the past two days, I did something wrong and I don't deserve to be a popular idol. I'm sorry for the fans who have always supported and loved me, and I'm sorry for my teammates , sorry for the company that cultivated me."

"So here I am announcing that I will be quitting Thenotes after this summer's concerts."

[I said it would be better to kill me...]

[To put it cruelly, she did something wrong, and she deserves the consequences, but it doesn't stop me from being distressed]

[Professional approval is fearless, as long as Chen Yuan does not quit the industry and can continue filming]

[Alas, the hearts of the fans are broken]

[From Chen Yuan, I actually saw the quality of "honesty, courage and responsibility"]

[Come on, she didn't face it until she was photographed, how could she be honest? ]

[I rely on? What does it mean to be married? ? ? ]

[Awesome Chen Yuan, just leave the group and get married... Is that guy so nice? ? ? ]

[Then can I see that Yan Zhi intends to be a bridesmaid? ]

[I never thought that the Gu group would be scattered like this, is the Gu group of four people still the original Gu group]

[I don’t know, anyway, it’s fine if you want to fall in love without delaying Yanzhi]

[Cp fans who mean it, don't force me to slap you! In other words, if you intend to fall in love, the collapse of the house in the team is not the collapse of the house? Two seats collapsed! The Gu group is hopeless! ]

As soon as the live broadcast started, the number one hot search became "Chen Yuan press conference". "Xun", "Chen Yuan Married", "Tuan Fan", "Gu Tuan", etc. are followed by entries with "hot" and "boiling".

The public relations team hired by Melon Entertainment operates non-stop, either in rhythm or to clarify. The legal team is collecting evidence of rumors, and will never let anyone fish in troubled waters.

Backstage in the lounge.

Lin Yi and Zhou Shichen were already crying, and Yan Qi looked at Chen Yuan on TV with red eyes. Xu Shuyan pinched his fingertips into his palm, and tears fell silently.

After a while, she gently hooked Lin Yi's finger.

... She noticed that Lin Yi seemed to calm down a little when he held her hand. It's just holding hands, she was distracted, but holding hands, it's nothing.

Sure enough, Lin Yi shook her back.

Their hands were about the same size, and when their palms were touching, they clasped their knuckle fingers, and Lin Yi gently pulled her into his arms, as if the two of them were a community of destiny in such a turmoil, bearing and facing together.

"Let's get ready." The door of the lounge was pushed open, and Fang Yi stood at the door: "It will end soon, and the five of you going out together can be regarded as showing the spirit of the group."

She frowned: "I understand your feelings, but don't cry."

"And you, Lin Yi!" She said emphatically: "Didn't you cry less in the past two days? Your eyes are swollen. I'll ask my assistant to bring you an ice pack right away, and apply it first."

Lin Yi sniffled: "Got it."

When the ice pack was delivered, the live broadcast had already ended, and only the official photos of their group were left on the black screen TV. Lin Yi felt sore again when she saw it.

I was fidgeting, and suddenly my hand was empty.

She was stunned for a moment, and then she heard someone next to her say angrily, "Look up, close your eyes."

It was Xu Shuyan.

What is fierce?

Lin Yi obediently raised her head while slandering, but also felt that her eyes were swollen and ugly, and closed her eyes without even staring at Xu Shuyan.

Xu Shuyan took an ice pack and applied it gently.

The ice was cold against her eyelids, soaking her long eyelashes, and the red corners of her eyes aroused pity.

Xu Shuyan's hand trembled slightly, she staggered her eyes, followed the bridge of her nose down, and finally fixed her eyes that had nowhere to rest on Lin Yi's lips, which were slightly parted, and the tip of her red tongue was faintly visible.

She heard her teammates standing up and walking towards the door, the soft white noise on the TV, the turmoil outside the door, and even the patter of rain that was too far away.

I also heard her untimely heartbeat at this moment, as well as thoughts that grew uncontrollably like weeds.

Lin Yi's lips looked very kissable.

she thinks.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Later Xu Shuyan kissed enough...

Now the two puppies hook each other to keep warm
