Chapter 17
Chapter 17
In the practice room, Xu Yi was sitting in front of the piano, and Shen Qing was standing aside. She wanted to smoke, and habitually fumbled her hands into her pockets, but only brought out a handful of air.
Xu Yi was testing the pitch of the piano, Shen Qing listened to it, and felt that it was all the same note.Although she really didn't understand anything, she wasn't bored either. Looking at Xu Yi, Shen Qing's face changed only when Xu Yi's fingertips tapped smooth music on the keys that made Shen Qing feel familiar.
She said angrily, "Didn't you forget?"
The music in Xu Yi's hands didn't stop.
"You remember it again, don't you?"
Shen Qing snorted and taunted her: "You really have a long brain."
Xu Yi was not angry, but smiled gently: "Thank you."
What Shen Qing hates the most is Xu Yi, it was also in the past, and it is also in the present.Xu Yi in the past was also like not being able to read her rejections and negations, the cowhide plaster stuck to her, and said to her every day, Shen Qing, you are so beautiful.Shen Qing, you are really amazing.Now Xu Yi couldn't understand her sarcasm, and accepted everything with a smile, as if her words didn't affect her in the slightest.I want to see her angry.Shen Qing felt that she was the kind of little boy in kindergarten now, who would do some weird, strenuous and thankless actions in order to attract the attention of the girl he liked.
Xu Yi was like a ball of cotton that contained thousands of things, and it held back all the arrows that Shen Qing shot out from the bow, making Shen Qing powerless.
She listened to Xu Yi playing for a long time, and couldn't help but asked Xu Yi again, "Why don't you sing?"
Xu Yi was silent for a while, with a shy face, and said, "I can't remember the lyrics."
It can't be her fault either.
It is already a good thing to remember the score of the song written so many years ago.
Things like lyrics are like you are already in the third year of junior high school, and you still have to recall a weekly diary you wrote when you were in elementary school.can you do it?Anyway, I can't promise.
Shen Qing was speechless, after a long while, he was about to sit down on the piano bench, and he glared at Xu Yi, which meant to say, move to the side for me.
Xu Yi had no choice but to vacate a seat and let Shen Qing sit next to her.
Shen Qing said: "I'll say something, you remember it."
Xu Yi said, "Okay. I'll try along with the music."
Xu Yi pressed the keys, and the prelude had entered more than half a section, but Shen Qing was still in a daze.Xu Yi bumped into Shen Qing with his arm, and Shen Qing was very happy, and said, "Sorry, I forgot. Let's do it again." Xu Yi had no choice but to play it again.
In the second time, Shen Qing got it right, but with one mouth open, he couldn't say two words, and got stuck.
Xu Yi pressed the keys again, turned to look at Shen Qing, and asked her word by word: "Do you remember?"
Shen Qing nodded and said, "I remember."
Again and again, again and again.
Shen Qing knew that she couldn't play tricks on Xu Yi for the third time, so she recited the lyrics seriously for the third time.It was really reciting, so serious and rigid that Xu Yi almost thought he was listening to a recitation program of China Central Radio and Television Station.She reluctantly stopped playing the piano, took out her mobile phone, and threw it to Shen Qing.
Xu Yi said, "Can you type out the lyrics and write them on a post-it note?"
Shen Qing hummed, took Xu Yi's phone, and saw the girl on the phone wallpaper.The girl has a peach-like face, a bit fleshy, but very cute.The bright eyes of the smiling eyes seemed to be called the moment they looked at the camera, so the whole photo has a momentum of responding.
From a technical point of view, Shen Qing certainly didn't think this was a good photo.There is a problem with the light perception, the noise, and the composition of the subject and the background.It's all about problems.
But she was moved by such a photo, she knew without guessing that it was taken by Xu Yi.She reads an absent love through the gaze of a non-existent camera.
"Your daughter?" Shen Qing asked.
Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, and said, "Yes."
"It's quite cute." Shen Qing said, "It just doesn't look like you." Shen Qing was mean, but it was also a kind of temptation, "Xu Yi, your genes are not good."
Xu Yi's appearance is as gentle as mountains and rivers. In terms of appearance alone, she doesn't have much to do with the word cute.At first glance, Xu Xiaotao had almond eyes, an apple face and thick lips, she didn't resemble Xu Yi in any way.
However, Shen Qing didn't know that he stepped on the landmine with precision again.Xu Yi was most annoyed by others discussing that she and Xu Xiaotao didn't look alike at all.Of course she knew that she didn't look like Xu Xiaotao anymore.Because Xu Xiaotao was not her child at all.But she didn't want others to mention this matter over and over again, so that Xu Xiaotao herself realized it.She never told Xu Xiaotao the truth, and even planned never to tell her.
Xu Yi directly skipped the topic, reached out and pulled out the post-it note on her phone, "Let's type the lyrics." She said, "There's not much time left."
Twelve hours sounds like a long time, but after a little practice and sleepiness, everything seems to pass.
Shen Qing noticed Xu Yi's changed mood, so he didn't bother anymore, and stretched out his hand to write down the lyrics in his memory on the sticky note.
After a while, Xu Yi looked at the written lyrics and couldn't help asking Shen Qing: "Are these really the lyrics I wrote?"
In Xu Yi's eyes, those lines of words always felt too green and artificial.
Xu Yi had great self-doubt.
Shen Qing cut off her hope and said, "Don't doubt it, it was you who wrote it."
Xu Yi watched it for a long time, covered his face, and asked Shen Qing, "How about we change the song?"
She seems to be 30 years old, and she can't sing the words written when she was 15 years old.
Shen Qing didn't say a word, took the mobile phone, and began to recite her poem word by word.
Listening to her reading those lyrics, Xu Yi is about to die socially.Without even thinking about it, she reached out to cover Shen Qing's mouth, cast a glance at her, and asked her, "What exactly do you want!"
Shen Qing pinched Xu Yi's hand, pulled it down, and said seriously: "Read the lyrics."
"Stop reading it, okay, let's change it?" Xu Yi asked.
Shen Qing said, "Why don't you read it? I think it's pretty good."
Xu Yi was about to go crazy: "What's the matter! It doesn't flow smoothly here, and the rhyme is also strange! They are not speaking human words!"
Shen Qing asked Xu Yi sharply: "Do you really think that the songs you wrote are too bad, or are you unwilling to face yourself back then?"
Facing that enthusiastic and sincere self, it seemed that he never knew what bowing his head meant.
Xu Yi stared at Shen Qing for a long time, and said, "I didn't."
Shen Qing would not know that the unreasonable years after meeting her were the happiest years before the rainy season came.
Xu Yi surrendered.
"Just sing this song." She said, "It's okay to let others see how naive I was in the past."
