56. The Unattainable Starlight Road (6)
Ji Lilang's breath quickly brushed his ears, very light words, vague comfort, but Luo Hua's stiff body relaxed because of this, personal grievances can not be brought to work, about this, Luo Hua is still conscious.
Obviously, the hostess of the banquet who came with a wine glass cloth was aware of Ji Lilang's situation, she walked to Ji Lilang's side, stopped, tentatively shook the wine glass in front of Ji Lilang's eyes, and got a Ji Lilang raised his eyes and looked in her direction with a cold eye, and her heart was shocked, but then after confirming that Ji Lilang had no other reaction, she scolded secretly, and immediately adjusted her attitude, and the corners of her mouth raised a playful arc.
With a turn of her gaze, she fell on Luo Hua's body, and with her gaze as high as before, she looked Luo Hua up and down, without the slightest intention of hiding her contempt.
The memory that had been deliberately ignored kept flashing back to her mind with this scrutiny, and Luo Hua's fingers involuntarily became cold, and her muscles began to tremble slightly. She straightened up and quietly let go of her hand holding Ji Lilang's arm, in fact, what she was most afraid of now was that Ji Lilang would discover her gaffe again.
Despite the tightness in her chest, Luo Hua managed to manage her somewhat unnatural expression, standing quietly in place, with a cold face, looking at the value of the item as if she had assessed the value of the item. She really didn't have anything to be afraid of, but the knot in her heart at that time was too deep and too tightly entangled, and it became a dead knot in her heart. In fact, after listening to Chu He's brief introduction to this banquet, she should realize that the emerging singer with the title of the daughter of the largest entertainment company in China will have no one else except Liu Jingchu.
"Does this young lady look familiar? Mr. Ji, don't you introduce your female companion? Liu Jingchu's voice was still as sweet and greasy as in her memory, Luo Hua gritted her teeth and held back some violent thoughts that came to her mind.
Before entering the venue, Chu He had instructed Luo Hua to keep Ji Lilang's surrounding environment clean and avoid unnecessary entanglement, so the topic started by her was obviously unreasonable.
Luo Hua put down the hand holding Ji Lilang, pinched the skirt around her waist, and finally pulled her pursed lips out of a polite arc "I ......", Ji Lilang coughed lightly and interrupted Luo Hua's words, his hand groped in a small area, touched the back of Luo Hua's cold hand, paused, adjusted the direction, and took Luo Hua's hand, the empty and out-of-focus black eyes looked straight ahead, with an indifferent and alienated expression.
"You haven't asked about the qualifications of each guest, and there is no need for my people to introduce you to them." is still the usual cold words, Luo Hua has deeply understood the origin of Ji Lilang's miraculous and flying black material, and Ji Lilang really dares to offend anyone.
Although she didn't agree with Ji Lilang's handling method, after seeing Liu Jingchu's face and Tieqing, Luo Hua was still very happy, her mood calmed down a lot, and she whispered sorry to Ji Lilang. Consciously pulled out the hand held by Ji Lilang, took his arm, and bowed politely to Liu Jingchu, "Happy birthday Miss Liu, the congratulatory gift is on that table, let's go in first." "The number of etiquette should be thorough, as for whether Liu Jingchu accepted her congratulations, it is not in the scope of consideration.
After helping Ji Lilang to sit down on a sofa with low crowd intensity, Luo Hua let go of her hand and sat down beside him upright, keeping a safe distance between her two fists. Ji Lilang has been silent since she finished saying the congratulations to Liu Jingchu, looking a little sullen, but he didn't mean to explain, Luo Hua was not good at thinking, so he could only sit obediently and silently look at the surrounding situation.
Probably because of the little episode just now, a separation circle was formed very subtly around Ji Lilang, and some characters who were interested in Ji Lilang just kept a distance of a few meters and watched, which is not difficult to understand. No one with a little common sense would blatantly get close to a guest who offended the host.
Liu Jingchu was obviously a person who had seen the big scene, and quickly recovered from the embarrassment. Far away surrounded by a bunch of people in the middle, talking and laughing, smiling like flowers. Luo Hua pondered the purpose of Ji Lilang's banquet, maybe this Miss Liu offended Ji Lilang, so Ji Lilang's trip was specially to block her...... This guess is a bit naΓ―ve, but it inexplicably hit Luo Hua's cuteness, there are people who don't like Liu Jingchu like her, and this person happens to be her employer, so she is very relieved. Luo Hua secretly glanced at Ji Lilang's quiet side face, and even she didn't notice the soft corners of her mouth.
The banquet went on in an orderly manner, one by one, and Ji Lilang was still sitting in the corner with an inconsequential appearance. Luo Hua tentatively peeled off a piece of chocolate and spread it in the palm of her hand, and handed it to his eyes, "Mr. Ji, do you have a snack, there are a lot of ...... here Uh" The moment the palm of his hand was brushed by his lips, Luo Hua's brain was blank, and by the time she reacted, Ji Lilang had already sat up straight, chewing the large ball of praline chocolate slowly. Luo Hua looked at his slightly bulging cheeks, still a little incredulous, and quietly turned his palms behind his back and rubbed them on the table. She didn't expect Ji Lilang to directly bow her head and eat the chocolate in her palm, recalling the soft and warm touch of her palm, Luo Hua's heart trembled, as if she had been scratched by a cat's paw, itching and restless.
Luo Hua's slightly confused breathing rate made Ji Lilang raise his eyes and glance at her, with a flash of smile on his face, "What's the wait, continue." "Huh? Oh...... Good. So, Luo Hua, who inexplicably became a full-time feeder, watched Ji Lilang swallow one chocolate after another she handed over in a trance......
At the end of the banquet, Liu Jingchu was already standing on the stage in the center of the banquet venue, changing into a new shiny floor-length dress, and the heavy makeup on her face became a little more elegant under the focused light.
After seeing a piano placed on the stage, Luo Hua understood Liu Jingchu's intentions in seconds, and then it was the birthday singer's singing, which directly evoked Luo Hua's memories of that game.
When a music competition is approaching the final, but there are still two songwriters with similar styles, it is inevitable that they will be compared, and if one of them is on a business trip...... Luo Hua understood the reason for her misfortune early on, but she was powerless to resist.
The moment the song sounded, Luo Hua's hand peeling candy paper paused, what Liu Jingchu was singing at the moment was precisely the last song she wrote, the worthless song that was β‘β‘.
"Let's go to the other side of the stage." Ji Lilang's hand rested on Luo Hua's shoulder impartially, and moved down to pat the chocolate in her palm, "I didn't bring you to peel chocolate full-time." Even though Luo Hua was reluctant in her heart, she obediently took Ji Lilang's arm and carefully guided him. The closer you get to the stage, the more people there are. However, the people along the way gave way intentionally or unintentionally after recognizing Ji Lilang, and Luo Hua gained a lot of speculative glances for Ji Lilang.
At the end of the song, the whole house was applauded. Luo Huaqing was low, but she caught a glimpse of the sudden smile on Ji Lilang's face, with a bit of malice. Luo Hua's heart jumped suddenly, she didn't know Ji Lilang's plan very well, but it didn't hinder the crisis consciousness triggered by the sixth sense.
Luo Hua stood vigilantly on the edge of the stage, watching Liu Jingchu, who was quite a little arrogant, walking towards this side step by step, Ji Lilang suddenly withdrew his hand, and nudged Luo Hua's back unexpectedly, Luo Hua staggered a few steps, and stood under the spotlight that had not yet been extinguished on the stage.
Huh? Luo Hua's blood condensed under the spotlight, and the nightmare day came to her like a tide, noisy, negative, questioning...... Her cold hand was once again held accurately, Luo Hua raised her head, and saw Ji Lilang looking at her intently, although there was no look in it, it inexplicably calmed Luo Hua.
"Miss Liu just sang that she was going to release a new song, listening to the original author's interpretation is also meaningful to you, you're welcome, just take it as my finale gift to you."
Mr. Ji ...... I" After Ji Lilang finished talking to herself, Luo Hua looked at Ji Lilang's face that seemed to be full of trust and couldn't say anything to refuse, Luo Hua's fingers tightened slightly, and she held Ji Lilang's hand, he was the first person to admit her talent after those belittled.
turned around and saw Liu Jingchu's not so calm face, as well as the curious and suspicious eyes of strangers in the audience, and took a deep breath.
There was no microphone, no accompaniment, when the soft first note came out, the melody behind it also became logical, Luo Hua closed her eyes, and her heart was terrifyingly calm at this moment.
At that time, she was interrupted before she even finished singing a complete sentence, and what followed was sharp criticism from the judges, heh, I think it's just a good means of collusion, and now it's time for Ji Lilang to give her a song.
It is a simple song with the theme of describing the shape of the wind, and the piano accompaniment played by Liu Jingchu is good, but it is contrary to the theme of freedom in this song, and the melancholy flavor of this song with her sweet voice is completely different from Luo Hua's thoughts, and the tone of the song should be natural whispers rather than blue melancholy.
It's better to sing a cappella, when Luo Hua finished singing the whole song, she opened her eyes, she said thank you calmly, and didn't care about the dead atmosphere around her, after the shackles in her heart went down, the song was taken by others and became dispensable.
Ji Lilang's fingers flexed and scratched Luo Hua's palm, Luo Hua came back to her senses from a stunned state, she looked at Ji Lilang's handsome face that was still not showing any expression in front of her, and slowly showed a smile, "Mr. Ji, let's go." β
Ji Lilang's long eyelashes trembled, he lowered his gaze, did not speak, and let Luo Hua pull him away, behind him was the reaction of the crowd and Liu Jingchu's angry explanation.
β¦β¦
"I'm causing you trouble." In the face of Chu He's black-faced accusation, Luo Hua finally recovered her senses from her relieved mood, and she suddenly pulled out her hand that she didn't know when she was clasped with Ji Lilang's ten fingers, and bowed her head to apologize.
Ji Lilang held the hand that was thrown away and stiffened for a second, and β‘β‘ the pocket of his pants, "Tsk, Chu He, you are too long-winded." Walking forward by himself, he almost stepped on the empty steps, and was quickly hugged by Luo Hua's waist, "Mr. Ji, don't leave my side without permission, it's very dangerous!" β
accidentally shouted out this kind of line that only exists in romance novels, Luo Hua could only smile awkwardly when she reacted.
Chu He glanced at the expression on Ji Lilang's face that was hiding his head in the dark shadow, and finally sighed, "In short, don't play the drama of singing without saying a word in this kind of public place in the future, and also, Ji Lilang, don't play too much, be careful of setting yourself on fire." β
