Chen Tinghan knew about this picture. It looked like it was indeed him, but only he and his sister knew that there was something fishy about it.
In fact, this was taken last year. If the picture was clearer, it would be easy to tell that Chen Tinghan in the picture looked a little younger than he is now. Fortunately, at that time he had not given up on himself and kept that long hair.
If the long hair in the picture is compared with the short hair he has given You Shenyu now, the mistake will be exposed immediately.
Although they could not find any actual evidence, the two girls stared at their phones with suspicious expressions. Fortunately, their doubts were largely dispelled.
Chen Tinghan struck while the iron was hot, smiling with a hint of bitterness as he said, "My mother's family is actually in Cheng Village, but things have been uneasy there lately, so we're staying at my grandmother's house, which is about three kilometers away. If this situation continues to stagnate, it will be inconvenient for the Cheng family to worship their ancestors, and we'll have nowhere to stay for the New Year."
The two women's doubts turned into worries, and they asked almost at the same time: "Wouldn't it be unsafe to go back now?"
"Will those people from the Wang family come to cause trouble?"
The two voices intertwined, and both of them were obviously stunned for a moment. An inexplicable emotion rose up, so vague that they themselves were confused.
For Lin Xueyan, her underlying emotions towards Li Zishan were definitely hostile before they met. After all, the other party was trying to steal her man. According to common sense, she should hate him to the core.
What was the reality? When they met, the disgust she had created from her imagined image was no longer tenable and collapsed on its own, leaving her hostility, which she thought she should have become tepid, neither rising nor falling.
What is Li Zishan thinking?
Li Zishan's anger was directed at Chen Tinghan. It could be said that Wang Jinling forced her to feel a sense of crisis, and she was not so easy to believe that Chen Tinghan had really returned to his hometown.
However, Chen Tinghan must be busy with things over there, but it is not certain whether these things are directly related to Wang Jinling.
Chen Tinghan was a man who was very good at taking advantage of opportunities. He looked at the two girls with a guilty look and said, "This is a critical moment. You know me. There are some risks that I don't want to take no matter what."
These words were said cunningly, without trying to prove anything or express any loyalty. They just brought out some doubts in Li Zishan's heart and directed them to the other end like water flow.
It was indeed Chen Tinghan's fault. He deliberately hid it from them, but that was for safety reasons.
Li Zishan was fooled, and her focus was diverted. Her face tensed up and she said, "Oh, really?"
Seeing her angry, Chen Tinghan felt relieved. He smiled wryly and said, "I know there are things I shouldn't hide from you, but that's a real fight, a deadly one, and I was afraid you'd worry."
Li Zishan sighed and whispered, "It's easy to change the country, but it's hard to change one's nature."
Lin Xueyan's eyes suddenly froze. Her instinct told her that there was something wrong between the two of them. Something must have happened that she didn't know about. Her mouth suddenly felt a little sour.
She decided to launch an attack and sat down next to Chen Tinghan, breaking the tacit understanding between the two. She was so close that people could smell the faint fragrance on her body.
Lin Xueyan said, "I didn't know you could sing. Could you sing a song for me?"
After saying that, she looked at Li Zishan with a provocative look, but Li Zishan was... indifferent.
In other words, he looked at Chen Tinghan with a calm gaze, making him sweat profusely.
He subconsciously swiped the screen. There were so many songs that he was dazzled. He didn't know whether to speak or remain silent. Finally, he looked up and chose "Rice Fragrance".
The three girls were all stunned for a moment, a little speechless, but none of them made things difficult for him. They were neither good nor bad, neither left nor right.
It must be said that while Chen Tinghan's singing skills weren't up to par with professional singers, for an amateur, they were quite good. One could tell he'd been trained, not too heavy, and he could sing some pop songs casually, which was fine. The only thing that was a bit surprising was his younger sister, Shikui.
She had heard her brother singing at the top of his lungs while taking a bath. When did he learn to sing?
Of course Chen Tinghan didn't dare to say it. That was all thanks to his previous life. He wanted to have some common topics with Wang Jinling, so he picked two things from poetry, singing and dancing to practice. Even if he was only half-baked, it was better than sitting together in silence.
Dancing was definitely out of the question, so she read some poetry. Later, she heard that a coquettish "poet" humiliated himself in front of her and suffered a great setback. So Chen Tinghan practiced singing. Fortunately, he had some talent and was not afraid of anyone.
Li Zishan and Lin Xueyan clapped their hands to keep the rhythm, and soon the song ended.
After that, the atmosphere became lively, and Shikui took over and sang in turn.
"Cherry blossom grass in the hands of lovers."
"The smile of a spring stroll."
......
"In the lover's arms, I hold the cherry blossom grass and hear my heart beating in my chest."
"Secretly, I'm missing you. That's the taste of our love."
The girl's voice was undecorated as she sang softly, like the clouds in the sky, soft and slow.
Chen Tinghan led the applause. Lin Xueyan suddenly hugged Chen Shikui, who was still immersed in the afterglow, and said lovingly, "Sister Shikui sang so beautifully. Her voice is lovely and full of emotion. Are you in love?"
Chen Shikui blushed, glared at the older brother who suddenly looked over, and then firmly denied, "What are you talking about? It's nothing."
"That's good. Come date me. All men are big liars." Lin Xueyan said with a smile.
"My brother too?"
"Yes, he is especially." Lin Xueyan nodded firmly.
Of course, Chen Tinghan could only raise his hands in surrender. He glanced at Li Zishan beside him from time to time, feeling a little nervous.
Should I have passed safely?
However, as one fears, so too will they come true. Li Zishan suddenly said, "Can you sing a song for me too?"
He asked cautiously, "Then I'll just sing a song?"
"Okay." Li Zishan smiled, seeming easy to talk to. But then he suddenly changed the subject and said emphatically, "But not here, but on the stage of the Top Ten Campus Singers."
......
......
As soon as that request was made, the atmosphere, which had finally begun to improve, quickly turned cold again and soon ended in a bad mood.
Later, Secretary Yu took Lin Xueyan away, and Li Zishan went home with her aunt, leaving the Chen brother and sister standing in the winter scenery without snow.
Chen Shikui looked ahead, puffs of white steam coming out of his mouth. After hesitating for a long time, he finally asked the question: "Who do you like?"
