Chapter 26: The Musical Ball
Jiang Li was a little depressed, but also extremely nervous, after dinner, he waited anxiously, the time was slowly approaching seven o'clock, and the music and dance party was coming.
If he just danced with Zhang Nara alone, he wouldn't make such a fuss, but now, there are three people: Zhang Nara, Tang Shishi and Ai Wenjing, and this is still after refusing the invitation of many other girls.
Jiang Li sighed slightly, glanced at Zhang Nara not far away, the other party turned his head thoughtfully, smiled, his cheeks flew red, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
But when seven o'clock really came, Jiang Li was not so nervous, he took Zhang Nara's little hand and shuttled through the crowd, looking for a place to stretch his hands and feet, and the energetic music came from the stage, and the "Golden Time" band had begun to perform.
People cheered, cheered, twisted to the rhythm, danced, and the stadium, which was the main stage, was too crowded for the night.
It took a long time for Jiang Li to find an empty place in the corner of the gymnasium's stands, which was far away from the stage, and the light was dim, so there were no people.
"Nala, do you want to go to the front and take a look?"
"No, it's here, in fact, it doesn't matter anywhere, the key is...... With you. ”
Jiang Li was a little embarrassed, nodded slightly, and said, "Then let's start." ”
The two held hands and danced in this remote corner, with tacit understanding, and there was no need to control it, after Zhang Nara's hand-in-hand teaching in the past few days, Jiang Li's ballroom dance had already danced decently.
The light is dim, and they don't see each other very clearly, and when the eyes don't work very well, people will relatively amplify the functions of other senses, such as smell and touch.
Jiang Li could smell the faint fragrance emanating from the other party's body, could feel the warmth and softness of the other party's slender hand, and could even hear the other party's heartbeat, and couldn't help but blush, fortunately, such an environment quietly covered the embarrassment of a young boy.
The same is true for Zhang Nara.
Zhang Nara raised her delicate blushing face, and secretly looked at the place where Jiang Li's head was, her eyes were confused, as if she was fascinated, and suddenly the music changed, she was shocked, and she was tripped over.
"Nora!"
As the cheers sounded, Jiang Li reached out to hug Zhang Nara and stopped castration, and the place covered by his palm was very soft, so he couldn't help but pinch it.
"Ahh
Jiang Li didn't figure out the situation, but asked with concern, "What's the matter, Nala?
"No......" Zhang Nala's cheeks were hot, and her answer was soft and weak, like a shy moan, Jiang Li's big hand still covered that place, although she didn't pinch it anymore, but through her clothes it was like a furnace that emitted heat, and it seemed to be about to melt her body.
"Well, it's too dark in here, let's go somewhere brighter. ”
"Hmm. Zhang Nara replied like a mosquito.
At this time, Jiang Li had already let go of Zhang Nara, although he noticed a trace of abnormality, but he never reacted, until he made an excuse to get out and came to the door of the eighth class of the agreed haode high school, and when he saw Tang Shishi and her full chest, he suddenly realized.
"Ahh
"What's wrong?" Tang Shishi walked over, saw Jiang Li's strange appearance, thought he was shy, there was a hint of sweetness in his heart, I remember which book said that men will be shy for women, and they have taken the first step to like it.
Jiang Li didn't know what Tang Shishi was thinking, so he took a deep breath and suppressed the ups and downs of his mood before he said, "Shishi, I've kept you waiting for a long time." ”
"Yes, I've been waiting for an hour, are you sorry?" Tang Shishi pursed her lips.
"Uh...... It seems like it's only half past seven now, right?" Jiang Li wondered.
Tang Shishi glared at Jiang Li fiercely, turned her head away from him.
This time, Jiang Li became smarter, and soon understood that Tang Shishi was waiting here half an hour in advance, so he would wait for an hour.
"I'm sorry, Shishi!" Jiang Li's daoqian only received a soft snort from Tang Shishi, and she looked at the bright moon, as if she was angry.
"I ...... I didn't know you were waiting here for a long time......" Actually, even if he knew Jiang Li, he couldn't rush over, because he had been with Zhang Nala before, and he didn't dare to tell the other party about it, his intuition was not good.
However, if Tang Shishi really asked, he might tell the truth.
"Poetry You ......"
"What are you, what are you doing here?" Tang Shishi said angrily.
"Yes and you...... Ah!" Jiang Li finally got his senses, stepped forward, and said solemnly, "Tang Shishi, please let Jiang Li dance with you!"
Tang Shishi smirked, laughed wildly, and said happily: "Silly departure, how can I say hello? Today I have received many invitations from boys, who are either full of affection or gentlemanly elegance, at least on the surface, and the words they say are all very tactful, or ask me if I have time, or ask me if I can dance together, how can you be like you, with a straight face, like giving a report at the conference, and the tone is so tough. ”
Jiang Li scratched his head embarrassedly, because he had said it in advance, he would be like this, otherwise he would not be so reckless, abrupt and beautiful.
"If you don't like this invitation, then I'll change ......"
"Fool!" Tang Shishi's eyes were like smoke and mist, and she lightly opened her lips and said shyly, "I accept your invitation." ”
In the school playground, the view is wide, the air is fresh, the moon is bright, and the big screen is broadcasting the performance of the "Golden Time" band live, and it is currently a relaxing and romantic music.
As the sub-stage of the music ball, although the big playground is not overcrowded, there are a lot of people, Jiang Li and Tang Shishi came here and stood opposite each other.
Jiang Li suddenly realized an important problem, he was a human being in two lives, except for holding hands with his mother, sister, Zhang Nara and aloe vera, he had never been with another woman......
Although I shook hands with Tang Shishi last time, there is a difference between the meaning of shaking hands and holding hands, and it is impossible to shake it this time and let go.
"When are you going to wait?" Tang Shishi couldn't help but ask when she saw that Jiang Li had not made a move for a long time.
Jiang Li gritted his teeth, made up his mind, plucked up his courage, and finally took Tang Shishi's soft and slender hand, and at that moment, his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
He remembered the first time he held hands with aloe vera, and suddenly realized in his heart that this is how a girl's hand feels.
This feeling can be overwhelming for a boy who has never really been in a relationship.
But this time, Jiang Li slowly calmed down after a short period of panic, although he couldn't be calm, but compared to the previous life, he undoubtedly made a lot of progress, because of rebirth and music, he became more confident than before, and relatively mature.
His steps were a little messy, Tang Shishi did not blame, but guided him gently, and the river was slightly warm.
The two jumped and jumped, gradually forgetting the time, from not daring to look at each other to looking at each other, under the night, in the moonlight, the musical accompaniment, as if it was going to last forever.
Just when Tang Shishi was about to restrain her feelings and wanted to get closer, a phone call rang with incomprehension, it was Shui Mengying who called Jiang Li, saying that she would go back first and let him have a good time, but don't stay outside too late and go home early.
"Mom, I'm actually not going home tonight, I'm going to the teacher's house. ”
Shui Mengying was silent for a moment, and quickly said "I know, pay attention to yourself, don't be too tired" when Jiang Li heard the ripple cry from the other side, and then hung up the phone.
"Shishi, I have something to do, I want to leave first, is it okay? ”
Tang Shishi glanced at Jiang Li deeply, nodded, watched the other party leave, and muttered in a voice that only she could hear: "Silly Li, you fool, my nose is very smart, are you going to see her...... Still, it's enough to be able to possess you for so long. ”
Tang Shishi guessed the first half correctly, but she didn't guess the second half correctly, because Jiang Li was going to see the third girl, Ai Wenjing.
The time pointed to more than eight o'clock, under the plane tree, Ai Wenjing, who was dressed in a turquoise dress, leaned against the trunk of the tree and looked at the front of the road, until a figure appeared in sight.
He came, and she waited until now.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Jiang Li panted and said breathlessly, jumping into a daze with Tang Shishi, and almost forgot about this stubble.
"No, I just arrived. Ai Wenjing said calmly.
Seeing each other, Jiang Li couldn't help but think of a conversation in the same place in the afternoon.
"Jiang Li, has anyone invited you to tonight's ball?"
"Hmmm......"
"There must be someone you can't refuse, right?"
"Hmm. ”
"And if I invited you too, would you refuse?"
"I ......"
"You don't answer, at night, or this place, if you want, just come. ”
So, Jiang Li came.
It's not a good place to dance, it's a nice place, it's quiet and elegant, but because you can't hear the sound of music, the atmosphere is not strong, unless you're a real couple looking for a chic taste.
Of course, Jiang Li and Ai Wenjing are not a couple, but the other party has already said so, how can he ignore it, after all, the relationship between the two is not ordinary.
"Don't be so inhibited, just sit down and talk. Ai Wen said quietly.
The two of them sat on the grass like this, leaning against the plane tree, and were silent for a while, Jiang Li took the lead in speaking: "Senior Sister Ai, someone should have invited you tonight, right?" ”
"That's right. ”
"Then how do you ......?"
"I guess you've rejected a lot, but even then, you seem to be tired enough. ”
Jiang Li coughed dryly twice to hide his embarrassment.
"I'm very happy, but I don't have to dance with you, I just want to talk to you. ”
Jiang Li suddenly realized that Ai Wenjing's parents were gone, and she was the only one when other students and parents visited the school together.
"Let's do a dance. Before Jiang Li's ass was hot, he stood up and stretched out his hand to Ai Wenjing.
Ai Wenjing was stunned, and when he saw Qing Jiangli's sincere and clear eyes, he smiled lightly, as if he was self-deprecating, but also seemed to be pleased, in short, he handed his hand to him.
Insects chirp, music faintly, and figures dance under the plane trees.
Time passed slowly, like a stream, but when it reached the first music room, it turned into a rapid.
Shu Yutong sat in front of the piano, over and over again, over and over again, she didn't know how many times she played "June Rain", she was completely immersed in it, the rhythm was getting faster and faster, and the ten fingers danced like flying, which had completely changed the original artistic conception, jumping from the warm June to the slaughtering December.
For whom do you play, and for whom do you grieve?
The phone rang, it was Tang Shishi, she didn't answer, until Jiang Li called, Shu Yutong stopped playing the piano, and the time pointed to nine o'clock.
Put through.
When she heard Jiang Li say that she was going to her house to rest tonight, she finally couldn't restrain her feelings, and a few crystal tears spilled on the piano keys.
Weishenme Jiang has been away for the past few days, she will feel that she has lost, and weishenme now feels that she has gained?
She couldn't figure herself out anymore.
But in the end, the music festival that was lively and happy but had nothing to do with her drew an unsatisfactory end.
At this moment, there are less than three hours before the release of "Big City, Little Love"!
