Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Summer Night Hunter
Jiang Chuanyao and the three of them, tall and outstanding, are naturally outstanding people.
In addition, their names are often mentioned in the circle, and they rarely appear in such activities, which attracts everyone's attention.
They were dressed very casually, but their style was very different from the scene.
But their arrival was not neglected at all, regardless of their eyes or the people around them. Many people have already started to talk to them enthusiastically.
The first person to step forward was Zhong Ruohuai, who was personally brought by Zhong Ling. Facing Zhong Ruohuai's smiling face, Jiang Chuanyao seemed to be in a good mood.
Unlike in the past, lazy and light, with a mocking face.
On the side, Zou Ruize asked aloud: "Will the concert continue?" β
Gu Yanxi smiled happily: "It may be the time to be wonderful." β
On the stage, the microphone and the home field were still in Lin Sheng's hands, and her eyes shuttled back and forth in the crowd, from Jiang Chuanyao to Bai Mang, who took the initiative to brush his sense of existence.
On the day of the Ding family's banquet, Lin Sheng could have come back, she didn't have such a prejudice against people as her mother, but she couldn't afford to run back and forth for irrelevant people. At the end of the Ding family feast that day, she received a call from her mother. Talking about Ding Jingkai, an inexplicably extra daughter, her mother's tone was tense, and she inadvertently said two words "so powerful".
She admires powerful people, but she hates pretense very much. In order to meet this amazing girl, she specially rushed back from Lan City for this private concert led by Teacher Xiao Rong, and volunteered to be the host of this concert.
She will never show malice easily, and give different people different opportunities to behave, even if that person is the person she hates.
This didn't open before, and she let He Lijia come to the stage......
The first person to be in the limelight is not pleased; The person who finalizes the finale may not be able to hold the scene.
Lin Sheng's appearance is a bit masculine, and his skeleton is larger than that of ordinary girls, in order to maintain his good looks, he controls his diet all year round, and his figure is very thin; Standing on the stage, it looks like a straight sword standing in the middle.
In the ordinary field, Lin Sheng can calm down, she is a naturally serious and controlling person.
In the previous concert, she deliberately ignored the three people sitting next to each other on the tea break table. She doesn't know Bai Mang's strength, Fang Zixin and Wang Yimeng, she knows each other's talents, not to mention that she has the talent to do it, and she doesn't even have basic expressiveness.
She didn't want to embarrass them.
Unfortunately......
"What instrument are you going to play?" Lin Sheng held the microphone and asked them with a smile, "Or be happy and sing a song together?" β
Bai Mang's smile responded to Lin Sheng's gaze even more, as if he was thinking, and delayed for a second and said, "We still have to discuss it a little." β
"Haven't you prepared?" Lin Sheng asked subconsciously, raising his eyebrows, his eyes a little incredulous. For such an event, everyone who is invited in advance will prepare well at home.
Lin Zhi is such an invincible person, and he has been practicing playing the saxophone for several days at home.
"No...... It's just that everyone is actively participating, and we are also very eager to try. Bai Mang replied easily and calmly, neither humble nor arrogant, as if a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers.
The girl's quiet face was filled with a modest smile, and even if she didn't behave well, she seemed to be forgiven.
Can......
Fang Zixin has been embarrassed several times in such activities, and today he is desperately trying to restrain his competitiveness.
Da Meng is also, if there is a talent that can be used, who wants to be the one who applauds the audience.
The point is, compared to them, they don't know what Bai Mang's talent is.
Bai Mang held her face high, not caring at all about the doubts that others had on her face, as if she only needed to play a game.
ββ¦β¦ Good. Lin Sheng put down his words towards Bai Mang, "Let's barbecue first, you think slowly." β
Bai Mang nodded.
Solemn and casual.
Fang Zixin couldn't help but glance at Bai Mang, this time she really felt that Bai Mang was removing socks and mending shoes, and she didn't care about it.
Big Moe: ...... The same.
-
The night was like black silk tearing open, and the stars were twinkling.
The evening breeze is coming, there are two blowers on the lawn, the wind is whistling, and the lawn has a floor-to-ceiling screen projection, and the music is loud.
Only young children gathered around the barbecue.
Adults are on the terrace on the second floor, drinking tea and talking, maintaining elegance and decency.
In the lobby on the first floor, the people basically dispersed, as long as Jiang Chuanyao, who arrived late, they stayed at the other end of the tea break table. They looked at them from time to time, as if they were expecting something to be known for.
Fang Zixin and Da Meng, big eyes and small eyes glanced at Bai Mang and glared.
Bai Mang began to build their psychology and asked, "Do you really not want to?" You've practiced at home before. β
Is that......
In fact, Bai Mang is right, of course they also want to go on stage.
Regardless of Fang Zixin and Da Meng, they have also rehearsed for tonight's concert. It's just that the rehearsal didn't work very well...... They have no brains but they also have eyes and ears, the four-handed joint play of He Lijia and Jiao Yang in front, or Lin Zhi's saxophone, and other people's collective orchestral instrument performance, it is not a fairy fight, but they are all really strong.
It's not like them, it's just a level of self-amusement.
Before coming over in the evening, at Da Meng's house, Fang Zixin and Da Meng practiced a song, which was a simple and old-fashioned song "Just Your Tenderness". If they are forcibly named, they can play hard.
But since Lin Sheng and others have ignored them...... And why bring shame on yourself?
β¦β¦
Even Fang Zixin thought that he was humiliating himself, and Da Meng's head shook into a rattle.
Zou Ruize is here. She didn't want to be ashamed.
Bai Mang was more confident than any of them, his eyes were wide, and he said word by word: "Before we play, why do you think that we will be embarrassed and lose?" β
"Besides, it's not a competition."
Such a white mang, such a word, is too encouraging for them.
β¦β¦ Glowing gives them strength again.
Their apprehension and timidity crashed into Bai Mang's calm and dark eyes, and not only disappeared, but instead bred gratuitous courage and thoughts.
"They really don't matter, they don't matter at all." Bai Mang finally added.
I really don't want these hypocritical and perfect smiling faces on the spot. If you choose to bow your head or stop just because others have behaved well and the scenery is too much, you will only regret tonight when you look back on it later.
Originally, the theme of tonight's concert was freedom-
Bai Mang took the initiative to find Ms. Xiao Rong, a musical instrument collector, hoping that Ms. Xiao Rong would arrange the scene for her, and Xiao Rong, who has always been cold to people, did not have any resistance to Bai Mang's request.
smiled slightly, and directly asked the two staff members to take the drum kit and electronic keyboard to a corner of the lawn outside.
At the same time, he took a private electric guitar from the second floor and gave it to Bai Mang.
"Behave well." Xiao Rong smiled suddenly.
If Fang Zixin and Da Meng were still a little stunned before, because Bai Mang also joined them, they would have no worries.
They had at least practiced, and Bai Mang didn't rehearse......
No matter how good the sisters are, when they have plastic, as long as someone is more embarrassed than them, it seems that they are not afraid of losing face.
They formed a makeshift three-piece band.
Bai Mang plays the guitar, Fang Zixin beats the drums, and Da Meng plays the keyboard.
This song "Just Your Tenderness" they play and sing is not Teresa Teng's version, but an improved light rock version. Fang Zixin and Da Meng chose this song only because of the simple tune.
However, the simpler the tune, the more it tests the singing skills.
There is also the cooperation of Bai Mang as a guitarist.
-
[The starlight is scattered along the way, and there are always lights at the end of the long road. γ
The picture in front of me also reflects the words on the concert ticket.
The lights are lit up and the stars are dotted.
Everyone came to the lawn, whether it was Lin Zhi and Lin Sheng, or Jiao Yang and He Lijia. They looked at Bai Mang, Fang Zixin, Wang Yimeng, and they looked like a band to make a combination, with disdain, and expectation, and even more so that Bai Mang was very scheming.
Tossing Teacher Xiao Rong to arrange the scene like this is nothing more than having no hard skills to make a fool of himself.
Once, they overturn or sing bummerly, it will only make people laugh even more.
The night breeze blows freedom, and the stars shine with hope.
In this rock version of "Just the Tenderness of Ling", although Bai Mang has not practiced with Fang Zixin and them, she has hummed with them.
It was also a breezy night, and the three of them drove Fang Yuhuan's BMW car on the way back after playing with the dolls. Drive on the bridge viaduct in Ningshi.
The cool breeze pours into the carriage, mixing the mood of summer and romance.
The girls start singing:
[A certain year of a certain month and a certain year
It's like a broken face]
[It's hard to say goodbye.]
Just let everything go away]
[This is not an easy task
But we didn't cry]
[Let it come lightly.]
Let it go well]
The girls have different voices, Bai Mang is clear, Fang Zixin is hoarse, Da Meng is gentle, and when combined together, the effect is surprisingly beautiful. The key is that they are real friends, they cooperate very well, and neither of them wants to hide each other's thoughts.
Once Da Meng forgot the words, the keyboard operation paused slightly, and Fang Zixin hit the drum heavily to cover it.
As for Bai Mang, she hadn't trained with them, but she was the most complete one.
The guitar in his arms is flicked, singing casually and slowly, enjoying the state, like a beautiful singer who plays and sings professionally in a literary bar.
Among musical instruments, the guitar has always been despised by upper-class families, either thinking that it is too easy to learn and not on the table, or disdainful of the way it is played. Not elegant enough, not imposing enough.
However, tonight is a concert on the theme of freedom.
Whether it is the song "Just Like Your Tenderness" or the performance of the girl's on-the-spot band, it is just right, because this just right casualness has an amazing effect.
Similarly, in activities with a large age span, the more classic old songs are, the more resonant they can resonate with everyone.
At the end of the performance, from the reactions of a circle of people, Bai Mang knew that the effect had been achieved.
Jiang Chuanyao and Zou Ruize came to the lawn together, and three pairs of long legs stood in front of the crowd.
Compared with the silent Lin Zhi and the thoughtful Jiao Yang, Gu Yanxi and Zou Ruize applauded directly applauded.
"That's cool! The three girls ......"
Jiang Chuanyao smiled slightly, put one hand in his trouser pocket, and under the light of the lawn searchlight, a pair of eyes full of emotions were clearly extinguished, and he looked at the girl sitting in the high chair opposite and holding a guitar alone.
If everyone else here just thinks they're just playing cool tonight.
Someone among them wants more than that.
It's not that simple.
Is it a girl's game, or is it something else? Or is it really full of scheming?
The rattling of the blower, the glittering neon of the lawn, and the men and women around looked at each other.
A body full of heat, a handsome and elegant face......
Hidden thoughts and suspicions are clear.
Upstairs and downstairs, no matter what the reaction from the front was, the last sight was still on them.
At this moment, Fang Zixin and Da Meng felt unprecedented comfort...... The results confirmed Bai Mang's previous sentence, how to know whether to win or lose before playing.
They won ......!
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Let's go down and play board games." The person who suddenly proposed it was He Lijia.
"Okay."
"Let's go......"
He Lijia is not the best family in it, and she can only follow Jiao Yang's mother to attend concerts, but she is popular on Weibo, she is a well-known goddess of science and engineering, and she is very popular among the children in their circle.
Appearance is justice.
Even if it can't be justice, if you can give full play to the advantages of your face, it will become a good focus.
He Lijia took away a group of people, and they were all listeners.
"Let's go!" Zou Ruize also followed, and his footsteps stayed here in Da Meng, and he wanted to take Da Meng together.
The choice of men and sisters.
Da Meng subconsciously looked at Fang Zixin, Xinzi and He Lijia are not on the same page, Xinzi will definitely not participate in the game game of He Lijia's group.
Unexpectedly, Fang Zixin gently put his hand on Bai Mang and Da Meng's shoulders, and said coolly: "Okay, go down and play." β
Bai Mang and Jiang Chuanyao followed.
Several of them took an elevator and Jiao Yang went to the bathroom.
The elevator closed, and Jiao Yang, who was standing behind the six people, looked embarrassed and unnatural.
"Why don't you bring your girlfriend?" Zou Ruize asked Gu Yanxi out loud.
Gu Yanxi coughed.
Jiang Chuanyao replied for his brother: "Listen to his deception, it's already time to separate." β
Zou Ruize sighed and sighed: "...... I really envy your flowers. β
You guys......
Gu Yanxi is not alone.
In front of Bai Mang, Jiang Chuanyao and Gu Yanxi, who were insinuated. Jiang Chuanyao was not in pain, but Gu Yanxi had to speak for himself: "Wronged." I really don't care at all, it's just that my relationship is destined to be unsmooth, and I am let down every time I give my true feelings. It's not like some people who have been breaking girls' hearts. β
Compared with Zou Ruize, Gu Yanxi's words really stepped on his brother.
Fang Zixin pulled her mouth coldly. A man's mouth is a deceitful ghost.
Da Meng lowered her head, and she was extremely sensitive, so she naturally felt that the elevator atmosphere was very wrong.
Bai Mang stood in the innermost, next to Jiao Yang; Suddenly, Jiao Yang glanced at her intently and affectionately with eyes that only two people could notice.
β¦β¦ Diaphragm!
Just then, the elevator stopped in the basement.
Jiang Chuanyao, who was dragged into the water by his brothers, suddenly turned sideways slightly, his eyes fell on Bai Mang's face, blocking the affectionate eyes that made people respond, pulled up a light smile, and asked Bai Mang: "Do you know how to play board games?" β
is too obvious to pay attention to and hook up, and does not care about everyone at all, as if he has confirmed the label of a flowery man, which is really shameless.
However, Jiang Chuanyao's hook-up words are still eyes, calm and comfortable.
Light and light, without a hint of oiliness.
Jiao Yang was in a very bad mood.
"Can't play." Bai Mang replied aloud.
Get out of the elevator one by one.
Jiang Chuanyao asked again: "What about billiards?" β
Without waiting for Bai Mang to answer, Jiao Yang behind him replied to Jiang Chuanyao: "I will play billiards - Jiang Chuanyao, let's play a game." β
Jiang Chuanyao turned his head, looked at Jiao Yang, and came down: "...... All right. β
-
The activity room is divided into several areas, and He Lijia and Lin Sheng are playing table cards at the long table.
The second wave of people who came down went to the pool table.
Bai Mang, Fang Zixin and Da Meng naturally gathered around the billiard table to watch the battle between Jiao Yang and Jiang Chuanyao. At the card table, He Lijia's eyes kept glancing at the billiard table.
She played carelessly, trying her best to suppress the arrogance and unwillingness in her heart.
She hoped that Jiao Yang would win, but Jiao Yang really won, and she could not accept that Jiang Chuanyao would lose.
The habit of being vigilant and observing people made He Lijia clear in his heart today, what was really between Jiang Chuanyao and Bai Mang.
Today she sat down from others Bai Mang is really a person with outstanding results in this year's college entrance examination and not hype, He Lijia played a few wrong notes when she played with Jiao Yang on stage.
Fortunately, the people below just watched the excitement, and only Jiao Yang found out.
Excitement at the tables.
The table is lively.
Jiang Chuanyao and Jiao Yang each stood on the billiard table, holding slender clubs.
"Hit what?" Jiao Yang asked Jiang Chuanyao.
Chinese? Nine balls?
Jiang Chuanyao said directly: "Snooker." β
Zou Ruize is a person who likes to watch the excitement, and takes the initiative to act as a referee and tidy up billiards. Gu Yanxi stood next to him and hugged his chest and laughed. He really didn't know why the son of the Jiao family wanted to challenge Jiang Chuanyao.
He didn't know how good Jiao Yang was at playing billiards, but the opponent was Jiang Chuanyao-
But it's hard to say...... Ha.
-
Snooker rules, a red ball, a color ball to hit the pocket, different colors of the color ball score is different, the highest score is to hit the black ball seven points, the lowest is the red ball to score one point, and finally the two sides calculate the total score of the higher wins.
During the game, you can create difficulty obstacles for the opponent. Therefore, it is also called "obstacle billiards".
"Best-of-five?" Jiao Yang asked again.
"Trouble, best-of-three games." Egawa Yao said.
Set the rules.
"You first?" Jiao Yangqian gave in.
"You go first." Jiang Chuanyao is not modest, even if he is lazy and full of confidence, he is not very interested in taking the lead.
In this case, Jiao Yang was not polite, the opening was extremely comfortable, hitting two red balls, one yellow ball, and one green ball in a row.
If Gu Yanxi was still very confident in the game before, and felt that Jiang Chuanyao was fine, after watching Jiao Yang's two skills, he felt that Jiao Yang was also a master.
Until Jiao Yang hit the yellow ball, he accidentally dropped the pink ball, not only did he not score, but also added four points to the opponent.
Jiang Chuanyao showed a little smile, he was still happy to take advantage of this kind of cheapness.
Finally, it was Jiang Chuanyao's turn to play the ball in the first half.
Jiao Yang played too smoothly in the first half of the game, and almost thought that he was going to clear the game arrogantly, Jiang Chuanyao had been lazily clubbing and did not play, holding the pole and waiting patiently.
He even took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it casually, and held it in his mouth.
Although there are no parents in the activity room, there are parents upstairs, and Jiang Chuanyao's behavior is not only not in his eyes, but it can be said that even the parents are not in his eyes.
He only cares about himself.
It's like playing ball, with your eyes straight and only landing on the end of the club.
His style of play is precise and easy.
Jiang Chuanyao hit a shot lightly, and the red ball went into the pocket smoothly.
Another one stood up, and the pink that was put back in place also went into the bag.
He raised his eyes and smiled lightly at Jiao Yang.
Half provocative, half ruffian.
There are more than a dozen red balls left, as well as the last highest-scoring colored ball, the black ball.
Jiang Chuanyao bowed down handsomely and sexily, and hit the red balls into the bag one after another.
All of them, no black balls were touched. It was not only his skill that was tested, but also his tactics.
If Jiao Yang played smoothly in front......
Jiang Chuanyao can be said to be wonderful!
At the end, there is only one red ball left, and one black ball remains. Jiang Chuanyao's total score has completely surpassed Jiao Yang.
time, but it only took a cigarette.
There were more and more people watching the billiard table, and even He Lijia and Lin Sheng came to the billiard table from the other side of the table, waiting to see Jiang Chuanyao finish the last red ball and black ball perfectly.
Jiang Chuanyao held the pole with one hand and propped it up on the table with the other. He was tall and broad-shouldered, and the whole person bent over a lot, because it made him look even more imposing.
Just like his arms on the billiard table when he plays ball, the slender muscles are smooth, and the cyan veins are slightly visible, showing a neat sense of strength.
There was still one last piece of cigarette in his mouth.
Jiang Chuanyao withdrew his slender arm on the table, stood up straight lazily, vulgarly removed the cigarette from his mouth, and pinched off the ashtray placed aside.
Bouncing down again, a beautiful possession hit, and the final red ball fell into the pocket.
"Beautiful!" Fang Zixin wanted to applaud.
ββ¦β¦ Strike! Zou Ruize was also amazed.
There was applause around the table.
And thenβ
Now, it's really just the last black ball.
Everyone was waiting for Jiang Chuanyao to pocket the last black ball, but Jiang Chuanyao stood up boringly, his young eyes swirling around the circle of onlookers, and then landed on Bai Mang openly.
only fell on Bai Mang, and finally looked at her.
His eyes were warm, burning and seductive;
A nonchalant smile on his face.
If there is a little more meaning in the eyes, it is simply breathtaking, and it beats the heartbeat of everyone present. That's why, Jiang Chuanyao's reputation is ruined, and there are many girls who are fascinated by him.
β710β¦β¦ The last ball you play. Putting away the club, Jiang Chuanyao spoke.
He gave her a numerical nickname, not to call her on purpose.
But here, she is the only one who can be called like this.
White mang.
