In the middle of dinner, Miss Imai left the table once, and after a while, she returned again, holding in her arms what Sakai Izumi had just bought.

"Miss Sakai, bring it. ”

"Good work, Miss Imai. Sakai Izumi nodded.

Sakai Izumi had to go to the recording studio to continue working after the meal, so they said goodbye outside the store after eating. At the time of parting, Sakai Spring handed the box to Ye Zhao, "Please accept it, Ye Jun." ”

"Did you give it to me?" Although he had a vague guess when she asked Miss Imai to retrieve it before, it was just a guess, and it was a different thing than actually handing it over to him.

"Hmm. Sakai Izumi nodded lightly and looked at him, "It's a little late, but as a housewarming gift for moving, please accept it." ”

"That'...... I'll just accept it unceremoniously?" Ye Zhao said, taking the "mysterious gift" from Sakai Spring. The use of the word mysterious is not hypocritical, but it is true, and I don't see the true face inside.

Saying goodbye to Sakai Izumi and Miss Imai, Ye Zhao took a taxi back home. Putting aside the gift for the Watanabe Ryu couple first, he couldn't wait to open the box and the ...... that appeared in front of him is a set of wine glasses.

Ye Zhao gently picked up one of them, pinched the handle and looked at it carefully, the transparent body of the cup shone beautifully, making him immediately remember the "high theory" about drinking wine that he jokingly said to Sakai Spring Water that night.

Thinking of the various conversations that had happened at that time, Ye Zhao smiled, put the cup back in the box, carried the box into the kitchen, took it out one by one, washed it, wiped off the remaining water droplets, and carefully put it away. As he put it in the cupboard, his attention was drawn to something else.

After putting the cup away, he reached out and picked up the thing that had just caught his attention. It was the same glass that Sakai Izumi had made and given to him as a gift when he was staying in Shirahama a long time ago.

Placed together with the expensive wine glasses in the boutique, this clumsy work was immediately overshadowed, but when he held it, Ye Zhao still felt that this glass was more precious than any exquisite glass.

It was also at this moment that a slightly unthinkable thought arose in his mind.

That is, Sakai spring water is seeping into his life in a unique way, slowly but powerfully, and he has no way to remove the part that has seeped into his life, but he wants to open his mind and accept more.

Ye Zhao tightened his grip on the rough glass, took out the beer from the refrigerator, opened the pull ring, slowly poured it into the cup, and drank several big sips in succession.

……

On the afternoon of December 20, Ye Zhao took the Shinkansen alone and traveled from Tokyo to Kyoto.

Ryu Watanabe was already waiting in the waiting room, and after picking him up, they didn't go directly to the club, but went back to the two's house first.

Naoko Asakura greeted Ye Zhao in the entrance, she was wearing a loose knit sweater, if you didn't look carefully, she would only think that she was suddenly fat, not pregnant.

Ye Zhao handed the gift to Naoko Asakura, "Happy newlywed, Miss Naoko." I thought that if it was Watanabe-san and Naoko-sama, there would be nothing missing, so I bought a pair of champagne glasses for the two of them. When your baby is born, please celebrate with this cup. ”

"Thank you, thank you so much. Naoko Asakura took the gift box, "Can you open it now?"

"Of course, please. ”

"Then you're welcome. Naoko Asakura said, untied the ribbon tied on the gift box, supported both sides of the box with both hands, and the moment she opened it, she let out a happy "ah", pinched the grip of one of them, and took it out to show Watanabe Lu: "This is really beautiful!" While thanking Ye Zhao again: "It's really bothering you, Ye Jun." ”

"It's good that Miss Naoko likes it. Ye Zhao smiled.

After a dinner hosted by Mr. and Mrs. Watanabe, at 7:30 p.m., the three of them drove by Watanabe Lu, along with Akira Ha and Naoko Asakura, towards his club.

The wedding, which was only open to family members and friends, was held yesterday on the 19th, and tonight it was a small congratulatory party spontaneously held by Watanabe's friends in the Kyoto underground music circle to celebrate the couple's new marriage.

"There is also a band from Osaka tonight. "Watanabe Rikumichi," said Watanabe Ryōmichi, who had been here for about a week during their Kansai tour, and when they learned about the celebration, they conveyed their desire to come and congratulate them through a mutual friend. ”

"Brother Watanabe's popularity is really good. Ye Zhao sighed, "At that time, it was also in Tokyo, as long as people who worked with Brother Watanabe, they all felt that you were very reliable and wanted to become friends with you." ”

"It's a little disgusting to be so boastful all of a sudden. Watanabe said with a disgusted smile.

Ye Zhao pretended to be innocent, "I'm very serious. ”

The two of them began to argue with each other, and Naoko Asakura, who was sitting in the back row, smiled and became a spectator.

When I came to the club and actually saw the band that "came from Osaka to cheer", I looked at the lead singer of the band, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity came to my face.

The name of this band is "Fourteen Talents", and the height and face of the lead singer also match the name "Fourteen Years Old", looking like a fourteen-year-old girl, but in fact, she is the same year as Ye Zhao, and they are both twenty years old this year.

It wasn't until Lu Watanabe greeted her and said "Miss Yanai, thank you for coming", that Ye Zhao matched the little childish female lead singer with a certain character in his memory: Aiko Yanai, or rather, her other name Aiko is more well-known.

Speaking of aiko, anyone who listens to Japanese songs will know the name. In 1998, she debuted in the same year as Ayumi Hamasaki, Hikaru Utada, Shiina Ringo, Misia and many other legendary singers, which can be said to be the starting point of the singer era, and it is also a year that can be called legendary.

Before her official debut, Aiko has been based in Kansai for music activities, and has also formed a band during this period, knowing these general situations, Ye Zhao is not so surprised that she appeared here, at most he will only feel surprised, by the way, the circle of underground musicians is not big, and Watanabe Lu is really "star-sucking", there was The Brilliant Green here before, and now there is Aiko, an ageless singer (although still very young) to sing.

Speaking of The Brilliant Green, this band formed by Watanabe Lu's juniors, naturally appeared here today without any surprise, and during the chat, Ye Zhao also knew that although Aiko is still singing in the underground music circle, in fact, she is in a similar situation with The Brilliant Green, they have both been "famous" and signed with a record company, but the official mainstream debut has not yet arrived.

Speaking of which, back to that constant topic.

Record company scouts are all over the country, from music schools to singing clubs to busker-infested parks and streets, casting a wide net in search of malleable talent. Even in places where scouts can't see, singers and bands who yearn for mainstream debut will unremittingly send their own audition tapes, waiting for their "Bole" to come to the door.

Ye Zhao was introduced by Watanabe Lu, and the people who came to participate in the congratulatory party exchanged greetings, although among them, he only had a relationship with the members of The Brilliant Green and the singers who were stationed at Watanabe Lu's club, but whether they knew each other or didn't know each other, everyone greeted each other very friendly.

Later, led by one of the men who looked very stable and was about the same age as Watanabe Riku, everyone shouted in unison: "Happy newlywed!" and the hand-held salute rang out one after another.

And this celebration for Mr. and Mrs. Watanabe was also announced.

Since it is a gathering of musicians, the content is naturally very simple, nothing more than the word "music". The first person to perform on stage was Watanabe Riku, and at the instigation of everyone, he stood on the stage and sang a song "いとしのエリ" by the stars of the southern sky.

In this classic love song, when Yoshisuke Kuwata married his wife Yuko Hara, he once changed the lyrics "Dear Ellie" to "Dear Yuko", and this time, Riku Watanabe followed suit and changed the lyrics to "Dear Naoko".

After the song, everyone cheered together, and Naoko Asakura, who was sitting in the audience, was not only full of happiness on her face, but also a little shy to be shown in public.

led by Lu Watanabe, and then the musicians present appeared one after another, and it was only after listening to three songs in a row that Ye Zhao realized that today's celebration, everyone sang all the original songs. Ye Zhao went to see Watanabe Lu, and even Watanabe Lu himself was puzzled, until he exchanged his head with the people sitting next to him, and he knew that these musicians who came to celebrate gave him such a surprise without telling Watanabe Lu: to compose a song for his newlywed.

"This is terrible," Ye Zhao said to Watanabe Lu half-jokingly, "I didn't prepare anything." ”

Watanabe was apologetic, "Well, I didn't know it would ......be like this," he thought for a moment, "Otherwise, you don't want to sing after that, and play bass with me, right?" The last time I went here to shoot the MV, I wanted to try your bass level, and this time it's just right. ”

"Thank you, Watanabe-san. Ye Zhao smiled, "Of course the bass must be played, but the song should still be sung." ”

"Huh?"

"Since I'm here to attend Brother Watanabe's wedding celebration, how can I not prepare anything?" Ye Zhao looked like he was in full swing, "As early as when I received the wedding invitation, I was already preparing a wedding song for the two of you. 2k reading network
