After Shen Yifeng fell ill, Shen Yuanyuan often had to go to the hospital to take care of him, and even school classes would be occasionally delayed, let alone come to the piano shop to practice. Zhou Minggao looked at the empty music stand next to him, worried about Shen Yifeng's physical condition and Shen Yuan's mental state, and couldn't ask.

He hasn't even added Shen Yuan's WeChat now—even if he knows her WeChat account in his heart, he only dares to search and look at her ten circle of friends visible to strangers, and he doesn't dare to add friends. Otherwise, his unknown way of adding it should be regarded as a pervert.

He didn't think about giving up learning guitar just because Shen Yuanyuan didn't come to the piano store recently. Because he knew that Shen Yuanyuan would not give up music in the future, he learned guitar, which can be regarded as a common topic with her.

- One of my good and genuine boyfriends is about to turn into a licking dog. Thinking of this, Zhou Minggao's "Happy New Year" popped up was a little more mournful.

Zhou Minggao saw Shen Yuanyuan again half a month later, on Sunday, October 30th. He was working on his new score when someone pushed the door in. Originally, he didn't pay attention, but it was Zheng Qinyan who shouted, "Shen Yuan!" He reacted, and the guitar in his hand was playing out of tune.

However, Shen Yuanyuan didn't look at him, or even Zheng Qinyan, she came to find Zhang Yue. She didn't say anything and went into the office with Zhang Yue to talk, although Zhou Minggao was curious, but there was no way to follow.

Shen Yuanqian looked much haggard. Zhou Minggao has the experience of accompanying his relatives in the hospital, and he knows how hard it is. Especially after the patient's surgery, the escort has to stare at the device all night and can't sleep. The people who have finished accompanying the escort can basically fall asleep as soon as their head touches the pillow, but Shen Yuanyuan is now in her second year of high school, it is the time when she is nervous about studying, she has to go to school the next day after accompanying her all night, not to mention a little girl like her, who is already weak, even if it is Zhou Minggao, I am afraid that she can't stand it. Although Shen Yiru occasionally helps, Shen Yiru is old after all, and with Shen Yiru's personality, he will definitely not let the elders share too much, and they are basically carried by one person.

So why did she come to the piano shop at this time?

Zhou Minggao tried to listen to the movement of the office again, but still found nothing. After a while, the sound of music came from the office - they were playing the piano, and it seemed that Zhang Yue was helping Shen Yuan revise some score. After playing, Shen Yuanxuan came out. She didn't say anything else, just said to Zhang Yue, "Goodbye, teacher." He said "goodbye" to Zheng Qinyan and Zhou Minggao again, and left with his guitar on his back.

She took the guitar with her, and that meant she wouldn't be coming back anytime soon. Zhou Minggao was a little frustrated.

After Shen Yuan left, Zhang Yue moved a chair and sat next to Zhou Minggao and Zheng Qinyan. "What's wrong with the curling? I don't think she's quite right. ”

Zheng Qinyan shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"I didn't ask you, what can you know as a little kid, practice the piano quickly."

Zheng Qinyan snorted, turned his head and stopped talking.

Zhou Minggao looked around the room, and there was indeed no one else who practiced the piano except him and Zheng Qinyan. "Teacher, are you asking me?" He was a little puzzled, "You can see it, she doesn't talk to me, we don't know each other." ”

"Come less. Aren't you here to learn guitar for her? As long as her eyes never come down from her, and she hasn't come lately, you have changed to stare at someone's piano stand. ”

"Uh......" Zhou Minggao said. It sounds like he's really licking a dog now, and it's obvious how much he licks. Speechless, the real boyfriend is speechless. "It's true that I like her, but that doesn't mean I know what happened to her."

Zhang Yue didn't speak, just looked at Zhou Minggao with a smile. Thinking that he would have to inquire about Shen Yuanyu's intentions from Zhang Yue for a while, Zhou Minggao had to give in. "Well, I know some, but I know by chance. There's a lot going on in her family, the negative kind, so she's been very busy lately. That's all I can say, it's her privacy, and it's not good for us to discuss it privately. ”

Zhang Yue nodded. "No wonder she's been nowhere to be seen lately. Usually she is the most diligent, I guessed that something was wrong, but I didn't dare to urge her. ”

"You're done asking, I'm going to ask." Zhou Minggao asked, "What is she doing today?" It won't be a farewell. ”

Zhang Yue didn't sell it, and said it quickly. "There's an art festival at their school next Tuesday and she wants to attend. She was going to perform a song that she wrote and composed herself, and she came to me to see it. She didn't say goodbye. ”

"Arts festival?" Zhou Minggao was a little surprised that Shen Yuanyuan would still think about participating in the art festival at this time, and then remembered that next Tuesday was November 1st, which was her birthday. Thinking that maybe that performance had any special meaning to Shen Yuanyuan, Zhou Minggao decided to take a day off next Tuesday to go to Shen's high school to watch the art festival.

Shen Yuanyuan's high school is the only provincial-level key school in this district, and it has always been extremely strict, and in many aspects it has even been managed to the point of "saving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires", and the students have been complaining. This year, a new principal took office, and he suggested that the focus should be on teaching as well as the physical and mental health of students, so that the sports day and art festival that had been abolished for a long time were reinstated. 2016 was the first year of the festival's reopening, so it was a particularly grand event. Because it was the first time it was held again, the school also acquiesced to some parents and people from outside the school to come to watch, and Zhou Minggao did not make much effort when he entered the school.

He followed the crowd in the direction of the auditorium, and as he walked, snow began to fall in the sky. He remembered that he had told him that the first snow in Province A always fell on her birthday every year, as if it was a gift from God. He picked up a snowflake and remembered the smile on Shen Yuan's face when he said that to him.

Knowing that it should be difficult to find an opportunity, Zhou Minggao still bought a small necklace and planned to give it as a birthday gift. At this time, the gift box was put in his pocket and well protected.

He continued walking in the direction of the Great Hall, where there were already quite a few people gathered. He randomly found a place to sit down, and it didn't take long for the festival to officially begin. The staff intimately distributed the program list to them, and Zhou Minggao sat relatively forward, so he also got a copy. He found the show that Shen Yuanyuan wanted to perform, and soon found out that Shen Yuanyuan's last program was a hip-hop performance, and there was no belief among the performers.

- I guess it's just a coincidence. He put the program away and watched the show intently.

Finally arrived when Shen Yuan came to the stage, she held a guitar, wore a white dress, and smiled beautifully. As soon as he saw her smiling, Zhou Minggao couldn't help but smile.

She sang a song she had written. This song doesn't obviously mean to anyone, but there are a few words Zhou Minggao still heard that she was referring to a certain boy, of course that boy was not him, but He Youxin who was standing on the side stage and preparing to play next. After Shen Yuan's performance, she walked off the stage, although she was indoors, she was really wearing very little, so she couldn't help but shrink her neck when she got off the stage.

The host came on the stage to announce the next program, but He Youxin ran to the rest area at this time. It didn't take long for him to come out with a coat of his own, and then before going on stage, he draped the coat over Shen Yuanyuan.

Shen Yuan smiled.

Only then did Zhou Minggao realize that the smile she had when she came on the court was probably also given to He Youxin. After He Youxin came to power, Shen Yuanyuan has been looking at him in his clothes on the side.

Although Zhou Minggao had told himself many times - He Youxin was just a sixteen-year-old child, I don't get angry with children and I don't eat children's vinegar, but at this time, no matter how big his heart is, he still can't stand it, so he got up and prepared to leave first. Before leaving, he happened to see Wei Yi, who was also sitting in the front row, and handed her the necklace box.

He said, "Please help me give this to Shen Yuanyu." He swallowed the phrase "Happy birthday to her" and replaced it with, "Just tell her that the song she sang today is very good." ”

Wei still recognized him, "Oh! You're the one! ”

Zhou Minggao closed his eyes and waited for the title of "Kill Matt" to come. As a result, Wei still said, "Zhou Minggao! ”

"You know my name? Did you mention me? Zhou Minggao's eyes were full of anticipation.

Wei still frowned, recalled the "kill Matt Zhou Minggao" and "entangled Zhou Minggao" that Shen Yuanyuan complained about with her, and the "Stalking Maniac Zhou Minggao" not long ago, and tried to control his expression and said, "It's a ...... Say it......" Then, she saw Zhou Minggao's expression suddenly brightened. Looking at the back of Zhou Minggao leaving, she couldn't help but shake her head.

It was still snowing when Zhou Minggao left school. Probably because of the first snow, there was still some rain in the snow, and he was almost soaking wet when he returned to school. His roommates weren't there, and he sat alone in front of his computer, trying to write the song he wrote in May 2019 from memory.

But his memory is not very good, and the memory is even more blurry due to the crossing, and he only remembers a few words after thinking about it for a long time.

- "If the world is dark, we will be the light." ”

- "I will always believe in you as much as I believe in myself. ”

The harder he tried to remember, the more he couldn't remember, and the feeling of powerlessness was like losing a beloved object, and knowing very well that he would never find it again.

After turning off the computer, Zhou Minggao went to the balcony and lit a cigarette.

With Shen Yuan's attitude towards him now, he really didn't have the confidence to replace He Youxin's place in her heart. What if he messed up his fate like this and messed up his fate to the end, and he Youxin and Shen Yuan were together? Even if the purpose of coming back was just to protect Shen Yuanyuan and let her not have any more accidents, he didn't want Shen Yuanyuan to really be with others.

He crossed back and operated once, and then Shen Yuanxuan and He Youxin lived happily together, which was very strange no matter how you thought about it. If that happens, is he great? That's stupid. The most important thing is not these, the most important thing is that just because He Youxin will directly play the matter of disappearance after graduation in the future, Zhou Minggao will not be able to rest assured that Shen Yuanyuan will be handed over to him. Although the same thing may not happen this time, since he has made such a move, it shows that he is not very reliable.

Phew, what to leave to him. Zhou Minggao shook his head, trying to drive this "great" idea out of his head. Let one of my legitimate boyfriends be reduced to licking dogs, impossible, impossible. Zhou Minggao extinguished his cigarette and thought angrily. Whoever loves to be the wronged leader, I should not be. Isn't it just a matter of faith? I'm a man who is a few years older than him and is still hanging, and I don't even think about it.

Yes, Zhou Minggao, who was very guilty when competing with his classmates for grades, fought for his girlfriend, and he didn't remember how to write the word guilt.

He swore to the smoke: I, Zhou Minggao, have never done anything to steal chickens and touch dogs, and I will not be unscrupulous in the next competition with He Youxin's children. This cigarette can testify that I will only use some gentle means to ensure that my curls will not be abducted by this unreliable fellow, and that's all.
