In the evening, at the San Francisco Civic Center, SFMC's report performance was held as scheduled.

In the dimly lit and full concert hall, there was another opportunity to listen to Su Xue's beautiful playing, Long Yun applauded with the audience in between the performances, but the feeling in his heart was different from before.

Since that encounter at the Shell Theater, he has been with Su Xue for a long time and has heard her play many times. But now the relationship between the two has gone further, feeling the audience's love and welcome for this beautiful pianist, sitting in a comfortable VIP soft seat and looking at the gorgeous and charming purple on the stage, as a man, although Long Yun is appreciating the elegant art at this time, there is a trace of absurd thoughts in his heart.

Under the spotlight, the dignified and elegant young pianist, the beautiful figure in the center of the huge stage, is a dream lover who can only look up and see the style from afar to all admirers, but for him Long Yun......

"It can be seen from a distance, but it can also be played profane", isn't it a bit evil to say this?

When a piano performance was over, he got up and went to the backstage door to pick up the little girl back to the seat, he naturally had already restrained these messy thoughts, but returned to the soft seat with his lover with his bag and sat down, and began to enjoy the performance program without distraction. Recalling the playing just now, he praised the little girl from the bottom of his heart; However, he also pointed out honestly that the other two pianists who performed on the same stage this time are also very good, and with Su Xue's unique artistic performance in China, it is only evenly divided in comparison.

"yes, that's how I see it."

Drape a dark blouse over a long skirt. Su Xue, who was leaning beside him, responded in a low voice. "How can I say it? In my personal observation, many piano players in China do not practice playing out of interest or love; Therefore, when playing, special attention is often paid to technique and proficiency, and other aspects are not too good. ”

"In other words, a little too utilitarian?"

"Yes, that's right."

Hearing Su Xue's agreement, Long Yun didn't think there was anything wrong with this, as a late-developing country, China has long had a social atmosphere of striving to be the first in everything and putting practicality first. The so-called "Cang Liao knows etiquette" is not an excuse. Thinking of this, he intercepted the topic, stretched out his arm to wrap around the little girl's waist, and gently rubbed it on the silky and delicate long skirt fabric a little presumptuously.

Listening to the passionate performance of the orchestra on the field, and experiencing the rare time between the two alone, Long Yun whispered to the little girl in the crook of his arm:

"Did you have a fun day? I prefer to go abroad than at home, as I do now. ”

"Happy. ――What do you say? ”

"Hehe, it's not that the country is bad. It's just that there are so many of your crowds everywhere that you can't go out normally; But not many people here will recognize you, so we can enjoy the streets at a leisurely pace. ”

"That's right. Hee-hee~"

When the evening concert was over, as the crowd walked out of the brightly lit civic center, and saw cars flowing out of the duplex parking lot, the two sat in Chevrolet unhurriedly and waited in line, and when they returned to the reception apartment, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

After entering the door, let Su Xue, who was a little tired after a busy day, go to take a shower and relax first, Long Yun took out the phone to contact his employer, and told Sù Ling that he was a little late today, and he could not go back until about ten o'clock.

"Really? Then pay attention to safety on the road, don't drive fast. ”

"No, I'm not used to it."

Grinning at his phone, Long Yun thought to himself when he had ever driven a fast car, the car was not a fighter jet, and no matter how fast he drove it, he couldn't take off. Seeing the man sneering on the phone, the eldest lady on the screen frowned at him twice, but did not criticize him for smirking at every turn, but came up with a very unexpected sentence:

"Remember to put on extra clothes when you go out. It's cold at night, so don't catch a cold. ”

"Oh—good, okay."

Hanging up the phone, Long Yun was stunned for a few seconds with his mobile phone.

This majestic eldest lady also has such a time when she asks for warmth and cares about her subordinates?

sat on the sofa and watched the TV news for a while, and after a while, he heard the sound of water in the bathroom stopping, and then saw Su Xue, who was wearing a light pink bathrobe, slowly walking into the living room; Seeing the little girl undo her dry hair hat and loosen her long, wavy hair, which was still a little wet, he stood up and took the hair dryer in her hand:

"Come, sit down, I'll blow your hair."

"En......"

Facing the lovers who came to offer their courtesy, the little girl who came out of the bath still had a hint of greenness in her expression, she turned around and found a cushion to sit on the sofa, raised her hand and lifted the dense and supple black light and sent it to Long Yun who was standing aside. A young girl with strong blood and energy, her hair is naturally very soft and smooth, and when she smells the faint shampoo fragrance left in her hair, he feels that this seemingly ordinary little thing is actually a beauty difference.

In this way, while carefully blowing his hair, Long Yun and Su Xue casually browsed the evening news program, and chatted tacitly from time to time. It was nine o'clock in the evening, which happened to be the time when the local TV station in California broadcast the comprehensive news, but at this time, the two of them were not on the TV, just unconsciously chatting and listening.

“…… A few days ago, the progress of the murder of the famous Russian singer Lyudmila has once again attracted people's attention; Due to the new evidence provided by the prosecution, the third trial, which is scheduled to take place early this month, was forced to postpone the ...... again"

At the beginning, neither Long Yun nor Su Xue cared about what was said on TV; When he heard the name "Lyudmila", Long Yun noticed the broadcast on the TV screen, but it was only a faint emotion, he knew that in reality, the woman who resembled Lyudmila in the parallel world had already died and disappeared for many years.

Lyudmila, who suffered an accident as early as nine years ago, has the domestic violence case not ended yet?

In this world, sometimes it's really helpless......

Thinking wildly like this, Long Yun continued the work at hand, and at the same time subconsciously listened, "...... This case, which has been delayed for five years, has not yet been settled......"

The broadcast on TV continues; But Long Yun didn't believe his ears a little, and in the whistling sound of the hair dryer, he felt that he must have heard it wrong just now.

"Long Yun...... Did you hear that? ”

To his surprise, Su Xue, who was sitting on the sofa, seemed to have noticed something, she raised her hand and motioned for Long Yun to turn off the hair dryer, and then tilted her head suspiciously and asked:

"Just now it was said on TV that it has been a few years since Lyudmila's case happened?" (To be continued......)
