Text Chapter 5: Musical Themes

Wang Xin obviously came here often, and ordered two steaks and snacks familiarly, and the waiter wrote them down one by one before leaving.

At this moment, a middle-aged man came to the center of the hall with a microphone and said: "Good afternoon, guests, I am the manager of this restaurant, today is the third anniversary of the opening of our restaurant, an event will be held here, all customers present can participate, and the customers who win the first place can get a pair of Cartier diamond rings presented by our restaurant!"

After the manager finished speaking, a waitress walked to the stage with a beautiful box, and when she opened it, she revealed a pair of exquisite and luxurious diamond rings inside.

"Wow!" there was an exclamation in the restaurant, obviously frightened by the generosity of this Western restaurant, Cartier's diamond ring is world-famous, and any pair costs more than 100,000 yuan.

And because the atmosphere of this restaurant is extraordinarily warm, most of the people who come to dine are couples, and many women can't take their eyes off when they see the shiny diamond ring, and they pull the corners of their male partners' clothes, saying that they want to get the pair of diamond rings.

Some anxious women couldn't wait to ask, "Manager, what's the event?"

The manager smiled slightly and said, "The theme of this event is music, and everyone here can come up and try it as long as you can sing or play the piano." ”

After a pause, the manager continued: "The person who just played the piano for everyone is Mr. Chen, the president of our Wushi Music Association, who was invited by me to come as a judge, and everyone can rest assured of fairness. Okay, I won't talk nonsense, if you want to participate, you can come to me to register now, and the registration will end in ten minutes, and the event will officially begin. ”

As soon as the manager finished speaking, the following guests went to sign up, and there were more than 20 people dining in the restaurant at this time, and the probability of getting a diamond ring was quite high.

Wang Xin, who was sitting next to Ye Li, also stared intently at the pair of diamond rings, it seemed that every girl had a dream of a diamond ring, and Wang Xin, who was white and beautiful, was not exempt from vulgarity.

Seeing Wang Xin's eagerness, Ye Li asked, "Sister Xin, do you want that pair of diamond rings too?"

Hearing Ye Li's question, Wang Xin came to his senses and nodded a little shyly, obviously having no resistance to the pair of beautiful diamond rings.

"Alright then, I'll get it for you. Ye Li smiled casually, stood up and went to sign up.

After Wang Xin heard Ye Li's words, his face turned red instantly, he raised his head and looked at the handsome back, his heart was pounding, there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, Ye Li returned to his seat with the sign marked No. 10, and when he saw Ye Li coming back, Wang Xin asked, "How is it, are you sure?"

Ye Li smiled evilly and said, "Luckily, there are ten people in total, and I will be the last to play." ”

Seeing Ye Li's evil smile, Wang Xin felt a little nervous inexplicably, lowered his head, and whispered a little shyly: "If you can get that pair of diamond rings, I will invite you to dinner next time." ”

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it!" Ye Li said with a smile, he found that he liked to see Wang Xin blushing, his cheap sister's appearance was already very high, and when she blushed, it became even more attractive.

In a short time, the event officially began.

The first one on stage was a middle-aged man, who chose an old song "Waiting for a Thousand Years", after the music sounded, the man's somewhat hoarse voice came, singing and singing actually entered the state, emotion was revealed, and at the end of the song, Mr. Chen, as a judge, nodded slightly and gave a high score of 90.

After the middle-aged man finished singing, he stepped off the high platform, came to her female companion, suddenly knelt down on one knee, and said: "Lan Lan, marry me! I want to take care of you for the rest of my life, even if I can't get this pair of diamond rings, I will buy you a pair!"

Seeing this scene, everyone in the restaurant became excited and coaxed: "Promise him, promise him, promise him..."

The middle-aged woman named Lan Lan's face was flushed, and finally nodded shyly, the man stood up and hugged his beloved tightly in his arms, and the other guests kept cheering, and the atmosphere of the audience was pushed to a climax.

After a while, the manager walked up to the high stage and said with a smile, please invite the second performer to come on the stage.

The second one to come on stage was a young man, who chose a song by Jay Chou's "Qili Xiang", but his voice was not good, and he couldn't sing the climax, which led to a broken sound, and finally got a sixty points, barely passing.

The subsequent performers were also relatively mediocre, and it wasn't until No. 9 came on stage that Ye Li's expression changed slightly.

On the stage was a handsome man, imitating Edison Chen's style, making a plane head, laughing and giving people a ruffian feeling, this person picked up the microphone as soon as he came on stage and said: "What I want to perform is Jay Chou's "Nocturne", play and sing by myself, send a goddess in my heart: Miss Wang Xin!" The man also glanced at Wang Xin after speaking, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Ye Li looked at Wang Xin in a daze and asked, "Sister Xin, do you know?"

Wang Xin glanced at the man on the stage, with a hint of disgust, and said: "This is my former high school classmate, named Zhang Chao, who is now studying at the Conservatory of Music, and is a well-known playboy. Ye Li, you must help your sister win him!"

"Oh? well, I'll try. Ye Li replied with a wry smile, I didn't expect to be a Wrigley brother today.

At this time, Zhang Chao also started his performance, only to see him sit down next to the piano, his fingers flying, and the familiar melody of "Nocturne" came out.

Zhang Chao's level is very good, and it is quite difficult to play and sing by himself, and Mr. Chen, the judge on the side, keeps nodding his head, thinking that this performer is very good.

At the end of the song, the audience gave warm applause.

Mr. Chen even gave a terrifying high score: 99 points!

Zhang Chao stood up, bowed slightly to everyone elegantly, and then walked off the high platform, went straight to Wang Xin's side, and said confidently: "Wang Xin, this pair of diamond rings will belong to you soon." ”

Wang Xin snorted sideways, stood up, and pulled Ye Li to leave, but was stopped by Ye Li.

"Sister Xin, I want to try. Ye Li stared at Wang Xin's eyes and said.

Feeling the determination in Ye Li's eyes, Wang Xin nodded, sat down again, and ignored Zhang Chao on the side from beginning to end.

At this time, the manager's voice came, "Please have the last performer of the day." ”

After Ye Li heard this, he stood up and walked towards the high platform, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, he also sat at the piano, obviously he also wanted to play and sing to himself!

Looking at the people in the audience with a smile, Ye Li said: "I'll bring you a song I wrote by myself today, called "The Rest of My Life". ”

After speaking, Ye Li closed his eyes, remembered the melody and began to play, after a simple and slightly low prelude, he sang in his somewhat hoarse and low voice:

Look for the sun in a windless place

Do warm sun in your cold place

Personnel are in flux

You're always naΓ―ve

For the rest of your life

All I want is you

For the rest of your life

The wind and snow are you

It's you

Poverty is also yours

Glory is you

The tenderness at the bottom of your heart is you

Caused by the gaze

It's you, too

......
