Inspirational Brother

"Um... I came to see if you've recorded the new watermark I gave you. No, that's just trying to trick me by saying, 'This is something I can only do when I'm pursuing you.'"

Song Shuyang put on a sarcastic expression in front of the mirror, then put it away after a while and put on a cool attitude. "Your fans are urging you to release new videos. It's best to post a few more now that the bar is about to open. I'll help you shoot them."

As soon as he finished saying this, he lost his temper again and leaned against the wall like a boneless man, going crazy.

"Why do I have to go find him?"

Maybe it was because he was the only one in the dormitory and it was too boring. Jin Zhou just said those words to him yesterday, and today he was eager to find him again. He felt that he was quite cheap.

But Jin Zhou never said that he was not welcome to his house. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, picked up his phone and left.

When he arrived at Jin Zhou's house, he found that he was not there. Song Shuyang went to the bar again, but still found it empty-handed.

There was only Xiaobai and a few staff members setting up the opening decorations in the bar. Song Shuyang walked directly to the bar and asked Xiaobai: "Are Sister Ying and Jin Zhou not here?"

For some reason, Xiaobai looked unhappy and listless. "Didn't Jin Zhou tell you? The two of them went to Beijing to attend the National Music Producers Exchange Seminar."

"Huh?" Song Shuyang was so shocked that his mouth opened like a Type-C charging port. "When did this happen? He didn't tell me."

Xiaobai rested his chin weakly on the bar, "Haha, Jiang didn't tell me either. I only found out about it when I saw Dongdong's circle of friends. I thought she was just dead."

It was not difficult to hear what had happened from her resentful tone.

Song Shuyang sat down next to her, "Did you have a fight with Sister Ying too?"

Xiaobai turned his head and looked at him listlessly, "What do you mean?"

"Jin Zhou and I also had a fight," Song Shuyang told her frankly, thinking that it was all in the past. "Jin Zhou was pursuing me some time ago, but I rejected him, and then we had a fight."

"I knew there was something wrong between you two. Even when I asked Jiang Ying, she refused to tell the truth and insisted that you were just brothers."

Song Shuyang couldn't help but sigh, "I have to say, Sister Ying is quite loyal."

"So what were you guys fighting about?"

Xiaobai sat up straight and told him the whole story. In short, she had experienced sexual harassment in the workplace during her senior year internship. After graduation, Jiang Ying had not allowed her to go to work. They had argued about this countless times before, and this time was the biggest.

"It's so boring not having work, and I can't make friends."

Song Shuyang felt that the first sentence was too Versailles, but he very much agreed with the second sentence.

They supported their heads on the left and right and sighed in unison.

"How long will they be gone?" Song Shuyang asked.

"Three days, otherwise it will be too late to open the business."

Song Shuyang was a little suspicious. Why did they have to travel so far to attend a seminar at this time? Maybe those two people were just finding an excuse to avoid them.

With Jin Zhou away, all the speeches he had rehearsed the whole morning were in vain. He could only help out in the store and find something to do. However, after popping more than a dozen balloons and breaking three wine glasses, he was tactfully persuaded to leave by the staff.

It was even more boring when he returned to the dormitory. He found that his life recently revolved around Jin Zhou. As soon as Jin Zhou left, he was like someone who had lost his memory and couldn't remember how he used to pass the time.

He was scrolling through videos out of boredom when he realized that the account he operated for Jin Zhou had posted a new video ten seconds ago.

It was a short demo of a mix. Song Shuyang turned up the volume on his phone and repeatedly pulled the progress bar to listen to the first two seconds.

Jin Zhou did not change the watermark he wanted.

Still using the previous one.

A surge of anger suddenly rose in his heart, and without thinking twice, Song Shuyang deleted the account on the login interface. From now on, Jin Zhou's account would be operated by himself. Since they wanted to draw a clear line between them, he shouldn't be so diligent in doing things for him.

After doing this, he lay down in the circle formed by his arms, feeling a little depressed.

This is what happens when you don’t have money to renew your membership. It’s so convenient when you use it, but when the privileges expire, you are shocked to find that you need to be a VIP for everything.

He felt that he had to find time to ask Jin Zhou what basic permissions he still had, so as to avoid stepping on landmines at every step.

In the evening, Xiaobai sent him a message: [They had a lot of fun.]

A video is attached.

Song Shuyang clicked on the video, which he probably downloaded from someone's circle of friends. He first filmed the tempting dishes rotating on the round table for about ten seconds, then moved the camera upwards to focus on Jin Zhou and Jiang Ying in the corner.

They looked like they were being toasted by some important person, their glasses held low and they had genuine smiles on their faces.

Oh, I'm very happy.

Xiaobai said sourly: [The one toasting was Jiang Ying's idol from her youth, a very famous producer]

Song Shuyang: [Who posted this on WeChat Moments?]

Xiaobai: [A girl in the circle, you don’t know her]

Song Shuyang: [Do you know Jin Zhou?]

Xiaobai: [Then I don’t know.]

Song Shuyang felt a strange feeling in his heart, and it was very uncomfortable.

The camera has its own language. There is such a big round table, and there are at least 20 to 30 people. Why did this girl take pictures of Jin Zhou?

Isn't the intention obvious enough?

He wrinkled his nose and asked Xiaobai: [Who are those people with them?]

Xiaobai: [They must be some newcomers who just showed up. Do you also think they might be dishonest?]

Song Shuyang angrily typed several lines, and suddenly came to his senses while typing. He and Xiaobai had different identities.

Xiaobai is Jiang Ying's official girlfriend, so it's reasonable for her to be jealous. What is he angry about?

He irritably deleted all the words in the chat box and reconsidered: [I don’t care about these, just look after Sister Ying.]

After saying that, he threw his phone aside. He didn't want to see any news about Jin Zhou today.

He hasn't paid much attention to the lectures so far this semester, and has fallen behind in his major courses, not to mention his elective courses. Afraid that his GPA will fall behind this semester, he took out his major books and studied them carefully along with his online classes.

Time passed quickly once I was immersed in studying. When I looked up, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening and the lights were about to be turned off.

He hurried to take a shower and wash his clothes, and climbed into bed before lights out. As soon as he opened his phone, Jin Zhou's new circle of friends caught his eye. Two simple words:

【knock off】

But the text is simple, but the pictures are not simple.

It should have been taken in front of a mirror in a hotel. Although the phone blocked the facial features, one could still see the clear jawline and slightly raised corners of the lips. The man who always had a casual and lazy dressing style wore a more formal striped shirt today, with a mid-length windbreaker on the outside, and deliberately made a pose to make his legs look longer.

Considering that he rarely posts selfies on WeChat Moments, his behavior today can basically be concluded as a peacock spreading its feathers.

I just don't know who it is for.

Song Shuyang didn't know what was wrong with him. Even though the lights were off, he still got out of bed and packed himself up. He picked out a set of clothes that he thought was the most decent from the closet, and styled his hair in a way that looked casual but actually showed that every hair was carefully groomed. Then he turned on his small desk lamp, opened his professional book and wrote down a page of notes. He supported his head with one hand and held up his phone with the other hand, holding it at a 45-degree angle towards himself, revealing a tired but playful smile.

Click, Song Shuyang couldn't wait to watch the finished film, and found that he was so handsome that there was no dead angle. A casual shot of him was already Jin Gou's life.

He simply processed the photo, made the face smaller, the nose straighter, added a textured filter, and sent it out with an inspirational message.

Within a minute, there were dozens of likes and several comments.

[You are still studying so late [Like]] This was posted by Song Nian.

[Oh my god, senior is handsome again]

[My jawline is clearer than my life plan]

Finding that his popularity was still high, Song Shuyang proudly replied to every comment, quietly waiting for someone to appear.

He waited from eleven to twelve o'clock, constantly refreshing his circle of friends, until he was almost too sleepy to stand and saw the familiar avatar.

Click in and take a look:

Esby: [Inspirational Brother]

Song Shuyang slammed his phone on the table and was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
