He continued to teach Huo Cheng to dance in the afternoon. He always felt that the look in Huo Cheng’s eyes when he looked at him was a little too hot.
It was that kind of enthusiastic, joyful, and slightly embarrassed look.
Male protagonist, why are you looking at me like this!
Huo Cheng thought that he must restrain himself.
At first he thought that asking Zhai Xingchen to teach him to dance would promote the relationship between him and Zhai Xingchen, but now he felt that he was wrong. What he promoted was not the relationship between them, but his own feelings.
Every physical contact and eye contact added fuel to his passion. His mind and body were out of his control.
“Have I wasted too much of your time?” Huo Cheng panted, “You go practice your piano. I’ll watch the video and learn for a while. I guess I can dance like this.”
Zhai Xingchen nodded and said, “Okay.”
Huo Cheng said: “I’m sorry to have taken up so much of your time. Thank you for your hard work.”
Zhai Xingchen shook his head, his face flushed and he walked out of the dance studio anxiously.
He felt that Huo Cheng seemed to have reacted just now.
Of course, it could also be that he was born with a big bump.
Alas, he could no longer be happy and act like brothers with Huo Cheng.
After walking out of the dance studio and passing by the next door, he suddenly heard the pleasant sound of an accordion.
He took a look inside and found that Lin Qingning was already playing the accordion.
The song “Twilight Stand” was very Soviet-style, sonorous and sad. He stood at the door and listened for a while. Lin Qingning saw him, stopped and waved: “Xingchen, come over and listen to how I play.”
Zhai Xingchen smiled and said, no, he didn’t want to go in.
Because Duan Yihua and Yan Zhi were also in this room.
After he went in, he found that only Lin Qingning was there. Duan Yihua and Yan Zhi were not there.
Lin Qingning played “Twilight Stand” for him. Although Lin Qingning was not very proficient, he finally played it all the way through. This was already very impressive. You have to know that there is a huge difference between the piano and the accordion. Many people needed a long time just to learn to play the piano by heart.
Brothers on the blue team, come and see what a high-quality bottom this is.
He looked at Lin Qingning and felt that Lin Qingning had a noble temperament, like a lily.
He would definitely look better if he changed his glasses to ones with thinner frames.
“Where are Brother Yan and Brother Duan?” he asked.
“Brother Duan went to practice guitar next door, and Yan Zhi went back to his place and hasn’t come back yet. He said he was preparing for a magic show.” Lin Qingning said, “How’s your piano practice going? Is Love Song a little difficult?”
Zhai Xingchen said: “It’s not just a little difficult, it’s too difficult. I was just about to practice.”
“Then go ahead.” Lin Qingning said, “If you need my help, just tell me directly.”
“Okay.” Zhai Xingchen said.
Zhai Xingchen did not go directly to the piano room, but stood in the corridor for a while to catch his breath.
Then he heard the dim sound of a piano, graceful, light and heart-moving.
He arrived at the piano room and found Pei Xu practicing there, but the piece he played was not “On the Shores of Lake Baikal” but “Mohe Ballroom”.
This time he played very calmly.
Seeing him coming, Pei Xu stopped.
“Do you want to practice the piano?” he asked.
Zhai Xingchen asked, “Why are you still playing this piece? Do you know “On the Shores of Lake Baikal”?”
“I already knew how to play that, no need to practice.” Pei Xu said as he gave him his seat.
Zhai Xingchen sat down next to him, and Pei Xu helped him spread out the score of “Love Song”.
“Can you play “Mohe Ballroom” now?” Zhai Xingchen asked.
Pei Xu said “hmm” and asked, “Do you want to listen?”
Zhai Xingchen said: “I like this song the most.”
Pei Xu was not as particular about his clothes as Yan Zhi. He always dressed very casually. Even when wearing a down jacket, he wore a bulky and loose style. At this moment, he was sitting next to the piano, with a fair face, black hair, distinct facial features, and a little swollen little finger, but he looked very handsome.
The quiet and beautiful piano sound flowed slowly from his fingertips. This song was perfect for playing on the piano. When Pei Xu played it, he heard the familiar melody and felt goose bumps all over his body.
In the cold piano room, the piano sound came slowly.
Pei Xu just played the beginning part, “If there is time”, and when he came to the most popular part, he suddenly whispered:
I have never seen a village where the aurora appeared.
I haven’t seen anyone.
Setting off fireworks late at night.
His voice was low, almost lost in the sound of the piano. The voice and the piano blended together, and Zhai Xingchen felt all the hairs on his body stand up. Suddenly, a beam of light shone through the window, shining on them, leaving them half in the sun and half in the shadows.
The sun is coming out.
Pei Xu sang very casually, with no expression on his face and a low voice. It was this kind of nonchalant feeling that made it sound particularly sweet.
He only sang this short passage, with just the right amount of restraint, and then he just played. The piano version of this song was quieter and sadder than the original. There was a fast-paced interlude between the two sections. This interlude was used as the background sound for flash mob clips on many video software, because it was very romantic and had a fast tempo, which was particularly suitable for countless flashing scenes. Pei Xu used both hands, and his hands slid across the black and white keys. Zhai Xingchen couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Pei Xu. Pei Xu’s profile was calm, clear and distinct as he played.
Pei Xu was very charming when playing the piano. Zhai Xingchen shrugged his shoulders slightly, feeling so cold that he wanted to shiver.
Pei Xu played the entire piece of music for Zhai Xingchen very seriously.
Zhai Xingchen felt that he played very well. It was not just a matter of technique. He was a person who really knew how to play the piano. There was expression and emotion in the sound of the piano.
There was a reason why he asked Pei Xu to play it for him.
After listening to it, he felt that Pei Xu was playing the music specifically for him.
He felt that Pei Xu’s playing had increased his suspicion.
Or to some extent, it confirmed his suspicions.
“I have never seen a village with aurora borealis, nor have I seen anyone setting off fireworks late at night,” Pei Xu repeated the lyrics and said nonchalantly, “It seems that the aurora borealis cannot be seen here.”
Then he heard Pei Xu say, “But you can see the fireworks here, Zhai Xingchen, do you want to see the fireworks?”
Zhai Xingchen thought, f**k it.
