Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Old Man Visits
Liang Yue found that since the holiday, his sister Liang Juhong's mood has not been good, just like summer, sunny and rainy.
It's only been two days since the holiday, and Liang Juhong at home is either in a daze, or reading a book, not like usual, or playing the piano to improve her piano skills, or teasing him to kill boredom, or asking good friends to go out for a walk, or playing coquettishly with her parentsβLiang Yue is 100% sure that she is bothered by the selection of the new star endorsement of the Lake Creek School of Music.
Liang Chenghong sat on the sofa, looking at the phone from time to time. Her face became more and more gloomy, and people became more and more silent, so that her father Liangzhu and mother Xuemei couldn't help but ask her if she was uncomfortable.
"I'm not uncomfortable." Liang Juhong replied sullenly, "I'm fine, fine." β
- Where's the good? Liangzhu was thoughtful, but Xuemei was worried. In the end, Liang Yue came forward and explained: "The school is going to select the new star image endorsement of the Lake Creek Conservatory of Music, and my sister is worried about this." β
"Ah Yue!" Liang Tanghong spoke out in warning.
Liangzhu and Xuemei suddenly realized, the couple looked at each other, and at the same time said to Liangjuhong: "You care so much, if you really don't want to wait, why don't you call and ask directly?" β
"Don't ask! I'm just waiting for a call! Liang Juhong rejected her parents' kind advice.
Liangyue on the side shrugged his shoulders and interjected indifferently: "Then you can continue to wait." β
"Ah Yue, how did you speak!" Xuemei glared at Liangyue, gently comforting her daughter while motioning for her husband to call.
Liangyue knew that he was wrong, so he quickly shut up, and Yuguang caught a glimpse of his father returning to the room, intending to dial quietly.
After a while, Liangzhu walked over, his face was not very good-looking, and said softly: "This time it's not orange ......"
"What?" Xuemei blinked, unable to understand for a moment. Liang Juhong also looked up and looked at his father.
Liangzhu said solemnly: "The quota is out, it's Yadi, not orange." β
Liang Zhu was not specific, but Liang Juhong understood.
Xuemei let out an "ah" and glanced at Liang Juhong a little bewildered.
Liang Juhong's face was full of disappointment, his hands clenched into fists, and he couldn't speak.
Liangyue was in a trance for a moment, and only then did he realize that not only his sister was defeated, but also Lu Yeyin.
He had a relative, and slowly retreated, wanting to leave - Liangzhu and Xuemei's attention all fell on Liang Juhong's body, and he didn't notice Liang Yue's actions, only to see Liang Juhong pouting unhappily and stopping Liang Yue:
"Ah Yue, where are you going?"
Liang Yue paused, put on an innocent smile, and said calmly: "I want to find Yin." β
- It's her again! Not mentioning the delicate mood of his father and mother, Liang Juhong gritted his teeth and thought hatefully: Yin! Night Tone! Dew Nightshade! Sure enough, I was looking for her again! β¦β¦
Liang Juhong can't forget that at the celebration two days ago, Lu Yeyin's performance with the accompaniment of the girl named Luo Caiyi almost won the applause of the audience, and she can't forget that the songs she chose at the celebration were too soft, and the slow rhythm was mixed with a hint of sentimentality, which was simply incompatible with the cheerful atmosphere of the celebration, and she couldn't forget that her opponents who were better than her on weekdays received more applause, and she couldn't forget that she played seriously but didn't get the approval of most people...... Failure was breeding in her heart, and she wished she hadn't played at all that day.
She grinded her teeth again: This semester is really unfavorable, and there is bad luck!
Liang Juhong asked tentatively, "Lu Yeyin...... Naturally, I didn't get a call, right? There was a hint of sourness in her tone.
Liang Yue was stunned for a moment, and said in a regretful tone: "Should there be?" β
Liang Tanghong inexplicably relaxed. Reluctantly, he raised a smile and said briskly: "Then you can find her." β
Liangyue's eyes widened, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and stammered: "Sister, sister, what are you, what are you talking about?" β
Liang Juhong glared at Liang Yue and said coldly: "If you don't want to go, stay at home, don't go anywhere!" β
"I'm going out now!" Ryoyue jumped up and hurriedly rushed out.
Liang Yue and Xue Mei almost laughed, and hurriedly reminded: "Ah Yue, run slower!" β
"Bang", the door is shut.
Xuemei stretched her neck to look out the window, and Liangyue had long since disappeared. sighed: For her son's favorite girl named Lu Yeyin, Xuemei vaguely knew a little. She had reservations: neither against nor in favor of it - she figured it out: just as her son made a female friend, as long as the son didn't delay his studies, it was no big deal.
What's more, her son didn't admit it in person, why is she in a hurry?
Love is a thing, the more you press, the more prosperous it becomes, it's better to let it go, maybe it will slowly fade away. She didn't believe that in the future, when she went to college, three or four years of separation would make her son reluctant to give up.
The weather is warm, the sun is shining, the autumn wind is blowing, and the grass is yellow-green, like a carpet of soft cotton. Lu Yeyin, as usual, wore a goose-yellow cotton dress and played the harp in her backyard. Ruofu has not returned home from work. Li Wa hummed while twisting her fat body to clean up.
The doorbell rang suddenly, Li Wa stopped what she was doing, and while running to open the door, she shouted happily: "Is Ah Yue coming?" When she ran to the door and saw the visitor, she was shocked.
The man smiled and said softly, "It's been a long time since I saw youβLi Wa, she's there, right?" β
"I only came back last year, and you just got your new clothes;
This year I look at you, you are getting fat and taller.
Do you remember that the lotus flowers in the pond turned into lotus flowers?
The flowers are not colorless, and I would like to dye the leaves red. β
Lu Yeyin plucked the harp and sang comfortably.
The melody is extremely soothing, revealing a hint of anticipation and sadness, and Lu Yeyin's voice is soft and slow, like a spring breeze in March quietly blowing the girl's face.
"What a great singing voice!" Someone was clapping, "Not bad, not bad!" Looks like you're improving again! Luminous Nightshade...... Oh no, it's Miss Nighttone Sendis. β
"Boom!" Nightshade was startled, and the sound of the hand playing the piano was interrupted. She trembled, opened her eyes wide, raised her head, immediately lowered her head again, turned in dismay, and said in a panicked tone, "I...... Don't know what you're talking about! β
"You haven't changed!" The man sighed helplessly, "I'm the only one here, I'm here alone." β
"Miss, it's terribleβ" Li Wa rushed over panting, shouting, "Miss, I'm sorry! I can't stop it! I ......" She saw the figure and slowed until she stopped.
Staring at the man's back, Li Wa was annoyed, angry, and anxious.
But he heard the man, "You are still the same, and you will always turn your back on me." β
"Nothing." Lu Yeyin turned around slowly. Her face was rather pale, and the harp fell from her hand on the grass, and she did not care, and tried to feign her composure.
The man stared at her for a moment, then turned his gaze to the harp on the grass.
"Li Wa, you leave first." Lu Yeyin commanded in a low voice.
Li Wa was not happy, but when she saw that Lu Yeyin was rarely persistent, she had to retire and leave. Before leaving, Li Wa unceremoniously pointed out: "Miss, if this guy speaks too badly, you can ignore him!" Don't think he's ...... Hello, you can do it! She gave the man a warning look and walked away with a grunt.
The man had a white face, a well-proportioned and slender figure, black and shiny hair, a pair of black glasses, a dark suit, and designer leather shoes.
Lu Yeyin bent down, hugged the harp on the grass, and looked at the ground without saying a word. The man didn't look at Lu Yeyin, but looked into the distance, and sighed: "How long have we not seen each other?" β
"Not more than a year at most." Lu Yeyin responded coldly.
"It's been almost a year!" The man turned to look at Lu Yeyin.
Lu Yeyin turned her head away and whispered, "I think so too." β
The man said, "I've inquired, why weren't you chosen?" β
ββ¦β¦ What wasn't chosen? β
"Don't say you don't know about the selection of the new star image endorsement of the Lake Creek School of Music - the place that Principal Li of your school handed me is Yadi, but I know that you are in that school!" The man was a little annoyed, "Tell me, why didn't you get chosen?" I don't believe you're going to lose the election! β
"You ......" Lu Yeyin bit her lip and stopped talking.
The man waved his hand and frowned, "Don't ask me how I know about youβI know a lot, and I have a lot of plans, so don't ask more." Tell me if you weren't selected because of ...... He? β
Lu Yeyin inhaled and denied, "No, not because of him. I didn't even think about it. Also, I don't know why I lost the election, and I don't have the sole choice of the teachers. β
"So, you want to participate, right?" The man was very confident.
Lu Yeyin pursed her lips and said nothing.
"I'm here to give you something." The man raised his wrist, glanced at the watch on his wrist, took out two pieces of paper from the inside pocket of his suit and handed them to her, "I guess you'll like it - this is the list of appearances and profile registration form for the Lakecreek School of Music's Rising Star Image Endorsement Selection!" In addition to the preliminary round of the school selection, there are additional alternates, and only me and the six judges are eligible to be designated...... I've chosen a few lucky candidates, including you, and I hope you'll be able to participate β if you change your mind, remember that within a week, you fill out the registration form and go to the office on the second floor of the municipal library to hand it over to the person in charge there! β
Lu Yeyin raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why did you choose me?" β
"It's up to you whether you come or not, even if you give the opportunity to someone else, anyway, I'll hand it over to you." The man didn't care, and chuckled three times, "I'm in a hurry, so I'll leave, you can decide for yourself." After speaking, he shouted "Li Wa" twice, Li Wa had been waiting there for a long time, and when she heard the man's shout, she immediately ran back.
"It seems that Li Wa takes good care of you." The man squinted his eyes and patted Li Wa on the shoulder, "I didn't bully your young lady, I don't believe you should check it well!" I'm really in a hurry, let's go first! β
He waved at Lu Yeyin and Li Wa and left.
A line of tears silently overflowed from Lu Yeyin's eyes, frightening Li Wa at a loss.
Lu Yeyin quietly shed tears, and she wanted to vent her grief happily. As soon as she saw that person, the memory she had deliberately hidden had to be brutally awakened, and the rest was sadness or sadness, and she had nothing to do but cry and be sad.
The music seemed to be far away from her, but it was very close.
Looking at the harp in his arms, Lu Yeyin was doubly uncomfortable.
I don't know how long it took, but Lu Yeyin finally quieted down, but a pair of eyes were very red and swollen. Li Wa wiped her tears and persuaded, "Miss, don't be sad. β
Lu Yeyin choked up and said, "Li Wa, don't worry, this is my last ......"
Li Wa showed a look of pity. She was about to speak, when she heard the doorbell ring again. Liangyue's shout echoed in their ears: "Tone! Sound! Are you at home? I'm coming! β
Li Wa and Lu Yeyin looked at each other.
Lu Yeyin hurriedly wiped her face and squeezed out a smile. Seeing that Lu Yeyin was much calmer, Li Wa said depressedly: "If you don't come early, you won't come late, but you only came at this time!" - Come! β
