"Rongrong, what are you looking at?" Tu Shan Ya Ya waved her hand in front of Tu Shan Rongrong.

She didn't understand why Tu Shan Rongrong stopped at the door.

"No, it's nothing," Tu Shan Rongrong lowered her eyes, tossed two taels of silver into the cardboard box, and pulled Tu Shan Yaya to sit in a corner.

Actually, the music hall wasn't full; there were even two seats left in the first row. But she didn't know why she chose the corner.

Perhaps it's in a corner, where you can openly watch him without being discovered, like a voyeur in the dark, hiding your unspoken self.

"You're acting strange, Rongrong," Tu Shan Ya Ya poked Tu Shan Rongrong, glancing back and forth between the two, feeling that there was something fishy going on between them.

"Ah!" Tu Shan Rongrong opened her mouth in surprise, thinking that Tu Shan Ya Ya had seen through something.

"Ever since you came in, Rongrong, you've been staring blankly at the stands. What's so interesting about those humans?" Tu Shan Ya Ya was puzzled. She had seen plenty of humans before, but she had never seen Rongrong so focused.

"You don't understand, Sister Ya Ya, I'm just looking at the song list," Tu Shan Rong Rong said, pointing to the song selection board on the side.

"Oh, I see," Tu Shan Ya Ya nodded thoughtfully.

Seeing that Tu Shan Ya Ya had been fooled, Tu Shan Rong Rong smiled slightly. Sister Ya Ya was as easy to fool as ever. She was really going to be sold out one day and still be counting the money for her.

At this moment, the music hall was almost full. On the stage, Chi Musheng cleared his throat and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, after what happened yesterday, I have decided to play only one piece each day, along with a story behind the piece. What do you think?"

"good"

A pig demon in the audience was the first to applaud. If Chi Musheng had seen it, he would have realized that this was the same pig demon who had gossiped about him a couple of days ago.

"Clap clap clap"

"Slap slap slap"

Once the first person started, the rest followed suit. They were hearing stories accompanying the music for the first time.

Even Tu Shan Rongrong and Tu Shan Yaya applauded, but Tu Shan Rongrong was a little annoyed. Why could others listen for free while she had to pay a hundred taels of silver? Was Chi Musheng deliberately retaliating against her?

"No problem, now we'll move on to the song selection section. Please watch the video and select your song."

All eyes turned to that direction.

"destiny"

Forget Time

The Last Page

If I Could

The four song titles are engraved on the selection sheet, making them difficult to decipher at first glance, and none of them are songs that one has ever heard before.

"Can time be forgotten?" Tu Shan Rongrong murmured to herself.

Upon hearing Tu Shan Rongrong's words, Tu Shan Ya Ya immediately stood up and shouted, "Human, Lady Ya Ya wants to hear 'Forget Time'!"

As a good sister, of course I should fulfill my younger sister's wishes.

All eyes were immediately focused on Tu Shan Ya Ya. The matter that the demons had been pondering for a long time without being able to decide was actually decided by the Second Miss, a fox who clearly didn't know anything about the zither.

A feeling of dissatisfaction welled up in her heart. Just because she's the second young lady, does that mean she can do whatever she wants?

The main reason is that Tu Shan Ya Ya usually has a bad reputation. She always does things that are more trouble than they're worth, making the demons angry but helpless.

Facing the hostile gazes of the demons, Tu Shan Ya Ya showed no fear and said directly, "What are you looking at? Want to fight?"

I was already in a bad mood today because my sister kicked my butt. I can't beat my sister, and I can't beat you guys either.

Upon hearing this, the demons turned their heads away, not wanting to pay any attention to Tu Shan Ya Ya, because keeping quiet in the qin hall was a sign of respect for a qin player, and they didn't want to be blacklisted and never be able to enter the qin hall again.

"Sister Ya Ya, have you forgotten what you promised me?" Tu Shan Rongrong hurriedly pulled Tu Shan Ya Ya down, covered Tu Shan Ya Ya's mouth, and turned to give Chi Musheng an apologetic look.

"Meatball, I remember you," Tu Shan Ya Ya whispered.

On stage, Chi Musheng shook his head helplessly. He was also helpless against Tu Shan Ya Ya, this fox who was famous far and wide.

Perhaps it's a coincidence that we can continue yesterday's story, because what we told Tu Shan Rongrong yesterday was only one of the three lifetimes, and we didn't tell the whole story.

"Sir, the music you requested will cost ten taels. Please remember to pay after the performance."

Tu Shan Rongrong released her grip and turned her gaze to Chi Musheng. She didn't want to waste her precious time on her...brainless older sister.

"Dear guests, please listen to the melody of time."

How far have we walked in silence?

Looking up, I suddenly realized

Keep going backwards until you reach the starting point.

With the first note of the zither, the audience seemed to enter the river of time, seeing the distant past, where someone seemed to be waiting for them deep in their memories.

"The promise to disconnect forever"

What we hoped would remain unchanged has all changed.

You can only see it when your eyes are closed.

Those once warm and vibrant scenes

In the distant past, they held hands and made promises, which have now vanished like kites with broken strings, leaving only those vivid and beautiful images behind.

The conversation was silent, yet the same familiar, yet unsettling voice kept echoing in my ears.

"Gradually...smiling faces"

Whenever the sound echoes in their ears, that smiling face always appears before their eyes. As time goes by, it becomes blurred, and to this day, they can no longer remember what that smiling face looked like.

Even if they return to the river of time, even in the depths of a long-flowing river, they still cannot find that smiling face. Perhaps beauty is only fleeting, but the river of memories is eternal.

Tu Shan Rongrong recalled Chi Musheng's smiling face at her, and how he shamelessly helped her tidy up the bookshelf and bills after being scolded.

That smiling face, which she once found so annoying, now seems difficult to even look at.

Chi Musheng has changed, becoming just like she used to be—indifferent and distant.

When tears fall, it's the end... a tomorrow without you.

Looking back on those sweet words, she realized she didn't cherish them.

So now she will cherish a tomorrow with you, Chi Musheng.

She won't let the future be without you, because she, who prides herself on being clever, is wrong.

It turns out that people really can fall in love with someone they dislike.

A tear from Tu Shan Rongrong's eye rolled down her cheek and landed on her palm, where she held it tightly.

"Chi Musheng, will you accept my apology?"

"If you don't accept, that's fine too. You can wait three years, and so can I."

The scene repeated itself from yesterday, except this time most of the demons brought tissues, wiping away tears and snot at the same time. When emotions run deep, even a two-meter-tall man can cry.

Because everyone has someone they can never forget in their heart. Perhaps it is a benefactor, a teacher, or perhaps it is the unforgettable moonlight from their childhood. It is gone, but it will always remain in your memory.

She is still alive, living deep in our memories. No one can define you back then, or even you in the future.
