Chapter 15
When he came out, Yu Ran's mood had almost calmed down, and he couldn't help covering his mouth and giggling when he thought of Mu Ran's distraught appearance because of his brainless problem.
When he was about to get in the car, Maoguan got off the car just in time, so he waited below for a while.
"Hey, why are you getting out of the car now?" Yu Ran felt that it would be awkward if he didn't say a word in this face-to-face meeting, so he took the initiative to say hello.But because Maoguan has always given people the feeling that strangers are not allowed to enter, he is a little uneasy, and he is already mentally prepared to be ignored.
Unexpectedly, Mao Guan actually replied to him: "Go to the toilet." Although his attitude may not be very gentle, it still surprised Yu Ran, and he was in a better mood. After Mao Guan left, he got into the car with a smile on his face.
Seeing that Yu Ran came back with a smile, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, because they were not sure if it was because of him that he was angry before, and several "suspects" were worried before seeing him, and gradually became angry. An inexplicable sense of guilt.
"Yu Ran, are you okay?" After Yu Ran returned to his seat, Liu Lixuan who was sitting in the front row turned around quickly and asked with concern.
"It's okay." Yu Ran's mood stabilized a lot. Although he was still a little dissatisfied with these long-tongued men talking behind their backs, at least he didn't show it.
"Is it because of us that you were unhappy just now?" Liu Lixuan asked.
Yu Ran shook his head and smiled faintly: "It's my fault, it has nothing to do with you."
"Oh, that's good. Gao Che thought we were bullying you, and he almost rushed over to beat us up just now." Liu Lixuan heard that it had nothing to do with them, and he smiled again, and saw that he was already leaning against the window to sleep Gao Che, who was in a daze, complained in a low voice.
Yu Ran smiled and lowered her head to pack her schoolbag.You guys deserve a beating!Thinking of this, he suddenly felt his fist itchy, so he rubbed it on his knee.
Xiao Lin finally came back and was about to order the driver to start the car. Seeing that Mao Guan hadn't come back, Yu Ran said, "Sister Xiao Lin, Mao Guan has gone to the bathroom."
"Really?" Xiaolin counted the heads, and indeed one person was missing, so he had to wait.
Mao Guan entered the bathroom, and Mu Ran came out wiping his hands.
"Mr. Mu." Mao Guan greeted.
Mu Ran paused, looked at the boy in front of him: "Who are you?"
"I'm a contestant from Voice of the Stars, and my name is Mao Guan." Seeing that he was still in a daze, Mao Guan added, "I sat in the second seat to your right at the banquet a few days ago."
After his reminder, Mu Ran finally remembered.The young man was sitting next to Yu Ran that day, and he was very impressed, because his eyes were too sharp, which gave him a bad feeling.At this time, although Mao Guan's eyes were much gentler than that day, he still didn't feel very good to Mu Ran, so he didn't stay any longer, nodded lightly and left.
Mao Guan stared at Mu Ran's back for a long time, and walked into the toilet when he could no longer see anyone.
It was almost eleven o'clock when the group arrived at the villa. After a day of exhaustion, no one thought about having some entertainment, so they dragged their exhausted bodies back to the room without saying a word.
Yu Ran was also a little tired, yawning, followed Gao Che into the room one after the other.Unlike others, Gao Che, who had slept all the way in the car, was completely refreshed at this time, and he still had the energy to sing while Yu Ran was taking a shower.
After Yu Ran came out of the shower, Gao Che took off his earphones, sat up from the bed, and asked him with a serious face, "What's wrong with you today? I've known you for so long, and I've never seen you so angry."
Yu Ran sat on her bed and wiped her hair, her tone was as usual: "It's nothing, I just encountered some unhappy things, and it's all over now."
"It's not because of Liu Lixuan and the others?" Gao Che propped his elbows on his legs, his gaze kept on Yu Ran.Therefore, he didn't miss that when he mentioned Liu Lixuan, Yu Ran paused for a second or two in rubbing his head before answering him: "It has nothing to do with them."
"Okay, it's fine if they didn't bully you." Gao Che stretched his waist. Although he was sure that this matter must be related to Liu Lixuan and his group, Yu Ran couldn't force him to speak if he didn't want to say it.
Before entering the bathroom to take a shower, Gao Che stood by the bed and called Yu Ran, and said seriously: "If anyone here bullies you, just tell me, and I'll beat him up for you."
Yu Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he was a little moved, so he nodded seriously: "Yes, I see."
"I'm serious, I've practiced boxing for so many years, and I'm still good at hitting people." Gao Che was worried that Yu Ran would think it was a polite remark, so he added another sentence.
"Okay, I'll keep it in mind." Yu Ran looked at him with a smile, and Gao Che went into the bathroom to take a shower satisfied.
Yu Ran lay on the bed and squeezed his arm, it was white, tender, and soft, it couldn't compare with Gao Che's biceps, which were clearly muscular and couldn't even be poked, so he was a little frustrated.Thinking of what Gao Che said just now, does he think it's time for him to learn boxing from Gao Che?Now he has no masculinity at all, he is as weak as a rookie.
Hearing the sound of rushing water in the bathroom, Yu Ran's thoughts gradually drifted away. Before he closed his eyes, the last thing that came to his mind was wondering if Brother Xiaoran could punch. He missed Brother Xiaoran more than Gao Che. Teach yourself.
As the first match got closer, everyone became nervous. At the beginning, people often chatted in the living room, but now no one appeared on the first floor. They either stayed in their own rooms to practice, or Take a taxi to the TV station to find a teacher for guidance.
Since the members learned the opening dance in three days, the dance practice has been suspended, after all, singing is the most important thing.And because everyone's level of music is different, there is no unified training, and the players practice independently, but the teacher will guide a sentence or two from time to time.
The songs have already been decided.Yu Ran chose two English songs under the suggestion of Mr. Wu. They are two relatively small songs. They are somewhat similar to the songs Yu Ran sang in the finals of the sub-competition area. They are all to reflect his voice characteristics as much as possible. .
Because it is a new song that I have never touched before, the lyrics and pronunciation have become the biggest obstacles for Yu Ran to practice.In fact, his spoken English is very good, but he always feels that it is not pure enough, so he always pulls Gao Che to correct his pronunciation before going to bed.
"Yu Ran, your pronunciation is already very standard. You don't need to try to be perfect. The more you try to make mistakes, the easier it is to make mistakes. Relax, you are too nervous now." Gao Che gently patted Yu Ran's tense back, thinking Help him relax.
"I know, but I'm still uncontrollably nervous." Yu Ran tried to relax, but with little success.
Gao Che felt the increasingly tense muscles in his palms, shook his head helplessly, and asked in confusion, "What are you nervous about? It's not the first time you're singing on stage, you should have gotten used to it a long time ago. That's it."
"That's different, this time it's a live broadcast." Yu Ran said.
"Why is it different?" Gao Che asked back, "Aren't you broadcasting the regional finals too? Didn't you act naturally at that time?"
In fact, Yu Ran was also sweating nervously before he came to the stage, but he just tried not to show it, but Yu Ran felt that there was no need to tell Gao Che about this kind of thing.
"Anyway, it's different this time." Seeing that he couldn't explain clearly, Yu Ran simply acted like a child, kind of like a little rascal who did what I said.
"Okay, it's different if you say it's different." Gao Che couldn't compete with him, so he could only compromise, "Then let's do it again."
Gao Che played the guitar to accompany him, and Yu Ran sang it again without looking at the lyrics.But this time when he sang, he was a little absent-minded, and his mind was full of what Mu Ran said when he chatted with him last night.
[I will come to watch the game the day after tomorrow, remember to perform well and don't embarrass your brother. 】
Although Yu Ran had already guessed that Mu Ran would watch the game then, but he only thought it was watching on TV, but he didn't expect to come directly to the scene!Doesn't this clearly distract him? When he thought of Mu Ran sitting under the stage and watching, he felt nervous and restless.
He also tried to get Mu Ran not to come, but he was very persistent, and even said domineeringly, "I'm a program investor, why don't I come here?", and then Yu Ran had nothing to refute.
In fact, on such occasions, as an investor, Mu Ran only needs to send a department manager at random, and there is no need for him to do it himself.But how could Yu Ran know this kind of thing, he was so stupid that he could only be forced to accept this heavy and shocking fact.
The day before the competition, all contestants arrived at the studio for the last rehearsal.Through the intense practice and rehearsal in the past few days, everyone has gotten used to this tense atmosphere, and has been able to adjust their mentality well to meet the upcoming official competition.
On the day of the competition, everyone arrived at the studio early, and a dozen stylists pressed them on the chairs to do makeup and hairstyle, and then changed into uniform competition uniforms.
Because the purpose of the program announced by the Voice of the Stars is youthful blood and dreams, the competition uniforms are not fancy, and the most innocent appearance of a group of teenagers is retained. Simple white shirts and light-colored cropped slacks are paired with elegant clothes. The stage makeup is clean, refreshing, simple and generous.
There is still an hour before the official start of the game, and all the staff are making final preparations. Tong Yun told everyone not to walk around at will, so as not to find anyone at that time, so everyone stayed in the lounge obediently after putting on makeup, and Xiao Lin unified manager.
The closer the game started, the more silent the atmosphere in the lounge was. No one spoke, and each of them wore headphones and practiced silently.
Yu Ran was also practicing nervously, when suddenly Xiao Lin came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Yu Ran, come out."
Yu Ran looked around and found that he was the only one being called, a little puzzled, put away his phone and followed Xiao Lin out of the lounge.
When they arrived at the door, they found Tong Yun's other assistant waiting at the door. When they saw him, they asked, "Yu Ran?"
"It's me." Yu Ran replied.
The man nodded, made eye contact with Xiao Lin and said to Yu Ran, "Come with me."
Yu Ran subconsciously looked at Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin smiled and pushed him away: "Follow Miss Wu, it's fine."
Yu Ran just followed Xiao Wu away, and he didn't know where she was taking him.After following Xiao Wu out of the studio area, he took the elevator up to the third floor. Yu Ran finally couldn't bear his curiosity and asked, "Sister Wu, where are you taking me?"
The elevator stopped on the third floor, Xiao Wu led Yu Ran out, and said as he walked, "Someone wants to see you."
"See me?" Yu Ran was surprised, with some expectation in his heart, could it be Mu Ran?
In a conference room, Xiao Wu stopped, turned around and said to Yu Ran: "People are inside, you go in. I have to leave beforehand, and go back by yourself when the chat is over. Remember to hurry up and don't delay too long .”
"Okay." Yu Ran nodded.After Xiao Wu left, he knocked on the door of the conference room.
After waiting for about ten seconds, the door was opened from the inside.Seeing the people inside, Yu Ran burst into a smile.
"Brother, it's really you."
Mu Ran also smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to speak, a middle-aged woman stepped in from a diagonal, elegant and well-maintained.Seeing Yu Ran, he immediately smiled, squeezed away Mu Ran who was blocking the door, and hugged him into his arms.
"Xiao Ran!"
Yu Ran was still dazed, and after being held in the arms of the middle-aged woman, he said blankly, "What, godmother?"
