Chapter 40
The Internet is very accepting of Tu Xia Fufu now. Even if Xia Yan is not in tune with his daily life and says some nonsense, everyone treats him with a tolerant attitude.
#My stupid wife went out without a brain today#
So much so that in the variety show, Xia Yan's considerate side appeared, and everyone was shocked. Everyone praised Xia Yan wildly, as if he had done something extraordinary.
The world is so wonderful.
A good person does a bad thing, and everyone thinks he is not so good. But a bad person does a good thing, and everyone will think he is not so bad.
At present, Xia Yan's status, traffic, and reputation are rising steadily.
In contrast, Tu Xi's originally perfect reputation has become flawed. The three words "love brain" always follow him. Some fans who really can't accept it have made a big fanfare to quit and turn against him, and complained about it.
Of course, most of them are fans of both of them.
Time passed like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to shoot "Heartbeat".
A group of people gathered in the villa of "Love Island" again. Facing the live camera, everyone greeted each other calmly. The new guest is a pure, cute and shy girl with a kind personality. She is quiet and doesn't cause trouble.
Without Fang Xihua, the troublemaker, the show became peaceful.
The director didn't dare to make trouble anymore. He just wanted to finish the remaining three days of shooting, edit the remaining shots, and quickly broadcast the next episode.
The scenery of 'Ai Xin Island' is beautiful and suitable for a relaxing vacation.
The director occasionally gives some couples special tasks for guests to complete. After completing them, they can get a bonus. Since they have saved some money before, everyone is now well-off and eats and drinks generously.
However, what everyone did not expect was... On the last day of filming.
The director waved his hand and asked the couple to use the saved funds to buy a gift that would satisfy the other party.
Everyone: "..."
Xia Yan calculated in his mind: "How much money do we have left?"
"520."
"...Speak nicely."
Tu Xi said innocently: "Oh, there are still 520 yuan."
"We will split it in half, 260 each." The young man raised his eyelids and took out 20 yuan from the money the other party took out. The corners of his lips curled slightly, with a bit of cunning, "But I only need 20 yuan, and for the remaining 500, you can choose a gift for me."
After a pause, he said righteously: "No matter what I give you, you will be satisfied."
The man was stunned and couldn't help laughing: "Yes."
Xia Yan nodded with satisfaction.
The dark camera was aimed at the two people, and the breeze blew past, blowing their hair, flowing and agile. The netizens in the live broadcast room spoke excitedly.
[I'm so happy. ]
[My wife is so smart. Tu Xi got more money, and the gift was for herself. It was a good deal. ]
[After going through so many things, you two must be fine! I can be single, but the couple I support must be happy. ]
[Uh... Actually, I still don't support them. Tu Xi is too soft and can't suppress Xia Yan. I always feel that Xia Yan will dump him at any time. ]
[The person upstairs can shut up if he can't talk. Thank you. ]
...
After a few words, the live broadcast room quarreled again.
After separating from Tu Xi, Xia Yan wandered around the island alone. Due to its remote location, many supplies on the island need to be transported in by cruise ships. The overall price is high, close to that of first-tier cities.
What can you do with twenty yuan?
Buy two coconuts and drink one each.
It's so boring.
As a scumbag, you have to be outstanding in coaxing people.
Xia Yan walked for a while, glanced casually, and finally stopped at the retro coffee shop on the corner of the street. Through the deliberately old glass, his eyes fell on the piano in the middle of the stage.
After hesitating for a moment, he pushed the door and walked in.
"Hello, welcome." The receptionist was wearing a black and white uniform and had a warm smile. When he saw Xia Yan, he was stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face.
Xia Yan only had twenty yuan in his pocket, and he definitely couldn't afford a high-end coffee shop.
But he was not afraid at all, and said calmly: "Excuse me, is your boss here? I have something to talk to him about."
The young man had already recognized Xia Yan's identity, so he naturally wouldn't refuse. After saying something to his colleagues, he quickly went to the office to find the boss.
The owner of this cafe is a woman in her fifties. She is wearing a smoky grey dress, her hair is all tied up behind her head, her face is marked by the years, and her temperament is peaceful.
"Hello, Mr. Xia."
Xia Yan greeted her readily, pointed at the piano and asked: "I have an important date tonight, may I borrow your piano?"
"With Mr. Tu?"
"Yes."
The boss: "Of course I am happy to, but there are other guests in the cafe, I need to listen to your performance first, and then make a decision."
Xia Yan is so popular now, and his past has been repeatedly dug up.
He entered the society to work after graduating from high school, which is a permanent black spot for him.
The female boss made a decision in her heart, as long as the music Xia Yan played was acceptable and not harsh, she would agree to the other party.
After all, it would be a pity to lose such a high-traffic free promotion.
The capital has entered autumn, but Lovely Heart Island is located in the south, and the weather is still very hot. Xia Yan was wearing a white shirt and jeans today, and looked like the most popular senior in the school.
He sat on the stool, got into position, and his straight back was like a green pine.
Memories of the previous life poured in continuously.
After a year of fusion, this body had already merged with his soul, and the appearance, height, and finger length were almost exactly the same.
When he pressed the first syllable, the body spontaneously played the characters that followed.
——To Alice.
A song played for lovers.
His music is joyful, gentle, and peaceful, like a gurgling stream in spring, flowing into people's hearts bit by bit, which is completely different from his outward arrogance.
[I'm shocked that my wife can play the piano.]
[It sounds so good, Tu Xi is so worthy of this. Let's plan to assassinate him, and then we'll take over. Manual dog head]
[What a gentle music.]
...
The coffee shop is divided into two floors, and some of the guests who heard the music came out to take a look out of curiosity. It only took a short glance, and they couldn't look away.
Xia Yan's skills are definitely incomparable to those of the top masters.
But his appearance, temperament, and music together, as magnificent as a carefully carved painting by God's hand, combine to form a top enjoyment.
The song ends.
Applause breaks out.
"You play really well." The boss clapped his hands with a smile. "As long as you need to use the piano, my door is always open for you."
Xia Yan: "Thank you."
He discussed the time with the boss and asked her to help reserve the best seat for watching the movie. The boss readily agreed and took the initiative to offer coffee and snacks for the two of them.
This was really a pleasant surprise.
The location, gifts, and time were all confirmed.
Seeing that it was still early, Xia Yan hurried back to the villa and changed into a black suit - sponsored by Beaufort. After taking a look, he found it a bit too stuffy, so he added a rose-colored brooch.
Like the finishing touch, the whole atmosphere suddenly brightened up.
Finally, after tidying up his hair, Xia Yan set off confidently.
His appearance was already superior, and now that he was dressed up carefully, he was even more eye-catching. As he walked along, men and women were secretly looking at him.
Xia Yan searched the street for more than ten minutes and finally saw a small stall selling flowers.
He squatted down: "Do you have flowers for twenty yuan?"
"Yes." The stall owner was a little girl. When she saw Xia Yan, she was very excited. "Everything is twenty yuan. Take whatever you want. Can you just give me an autograph? I'm your fan." There were not
many flowers on the stall, and the most were various roses.
The little girl had very skillful hands and packaged them very beautifully.
Calculating the price, some of them must be more than twenty yuan.
Xia Yan did not refuse the little girl's kindness. After signing for her, he hesitated among the various roses. Red roses were too hot and it was a bit embarrassing to give them to her. Yellow roses and white roses were too light in color and did not match their status as a couple.
After choosing and choosing, the young man chose a bunch of pink roses.
"Pink, pink?"
"Yes."
"Yes, okay, I'll pick them up for you right away." The girl swiftly chose the most beautiful bunch of flowers and added LED lights. "It's getting dark, it will be more beautiful if you add lights." The
bright yellow light shone around the pink roses, and the circles of light looked like a dream.
Xia Yan took it over: "Thank you."
When he turned around and left, he seemed to hear the girl's excited voice: "Pink roses... first love, my wife is so pure, I want to kill Tu Xi..."
?
The young man turned his head in confusion, and the girl sat upright, her face full of obedience and sensibility.
Did he hear it wrong?
Someone who had no research on the language of flowers left with a lot of question marks.
*
Due to the popularity of the first episode of "Heartbeat", there are many more tourists on the island. At the same time, almost everyone on the island knows the guests of "Heartbeat".
Xia Yan is undoubtedly the most popular one among them.
Usually when he goes out to shoot, everyone is peeking at him. Now that he is dressed up carefully and holding a rose in his hand, there are undoubtedly more people looking at him.
Those who are more informed already know that he is going to the cafe to play piano music tonight, and they ran to reserve seats early.
Night fell, and the street lights on the roadside lit up.
Xia Yan came to the cafe. Except for the seat he reserved, all the rest were occupied. He paused for a moment, then held the rose in his arms as if nothing had happened, sat on the chair, and waited for Tu Xi.
The two agreed to meet at the cafe at eight o'clock.
Xia Yan came earlier, and fortunately Tu Xi didn't make him wait for long. At about 7:30, they arrived at the coffee shop. Seeing that Xia Yan had already arrived, he took the initiative to say, "Sorry, I'm late."
"No, I came earlier."
After Tu Xi took a seat, the waiter was very considerate and brought coffee and snacks. The lights above his head gradually went out, and the warm yellow lights came on, bringing a charming and ambiguous atmosphere.
The guests around them kept silent and left this place to the couple.
It was obvious that a lot of effort was spent.
The smile on Tu Xi's face deepened. He took out a black velvet box from his pocket, with two band-aids on his fingers, and carefully handed it to the young man.
"I made it myself, I hope you like it."
The young man opened the box.
A pair of simple silver rings, quietly staying in the middle, with the crooked "TX" engraved on the inside of the rings, and an ugly heart between the two letters.
The young man stared at them steadily.
Tu Xi couldn't help but get nervous: "Sorry, my craftsmanship can only reach this level. You... don't like it?"
"That's not the case, it's just..." "
?"
"Why is my initial at the back?" Xia Yan tilted his head in confusion. Under normal circumstances, it should be at the front.
Tu Xi avoided the young man's curious gaze and said nonchalantly: "I think it's all the same."
"Excuse me, Mr. Xia Yan, are you willing to wear this ring and be with me forever?" Tu Xi changed the subject.
Forever?
Xia Yan felt complicated when he thought of his mission. He would leave this world sooner or later. He had some good feelings towards Tu Xi.
After all, he is the person who loves him the most besides his parents.
He hesitated, not knowing what to do?
Seeing them dithering, the system couldn't help but whispered: [Host, just treat it as a relationship that will end in a breakup. Anyway, Tu Xi is beautiful and has a good figure, and is good to you. The protagonist is very fragile inside. If you reject him, it may cause him to break up, be in pain, and lose interest in his career.]
This is the plot of the original novel. After the protagonist was deceived by the scumbag, he was destitute for a while, and finally came out of it under the guidance of the protagonist.
Now the plot has gone awry, and the protagonist who should have appeared is far away in the imperial capital.
What if the protagonist doesn't come out...
click! The movie emperor is gone, and the world is cold.
As the young man fell silent, the light in the man's eyes dimmed, and the boiling bullet screen also quieted down, as if embarrassed to disturb the key moment between the couple.
Xia Yan sighed in his heart, took out one of the rings, grabbed the man's hand, and decisively put the ring on the man's middle finger.
"I don't like to say forever, it's too empty." The young man supported his chin with one hand, smiled lazily, and said casually: "I can only say that we will be together this year. This is the biggest promise I can make, can you accept it?"
It is now the end of September, and there are only three months left this year.
Although it is a very sad word, Tu Xi smiled, he touched the smooth surface of the ring: "Okay."
...
[My wife is doing something weird again. ]
[Stupid wife, don't you know how to say some sweet words to make me happy? 】
【Tu Xi is hopeless, Xia Yan has taken advantage of her, and he only promised her three months! You are so happy. 】
【Go check Weibo, there is a big news about Tu Xi, it is so scary. 】
………
After Tu Xi gave her gift, it was Xia Yan's turn to give her gift. He took out the pink roses behind him and handed them to the man.
"It's a beautiful gift, I like it very much."
"You gave me a ring, how can I give you a bouquet of roses?" The young man stood up from the chair, walked to the piano bench and sat down, and gave the man a look from above, "This is the real gift."
Schubert Serenade.
Compared with the "To Alice" at noon, this piano piece is much more difficult, with soothing music, ambiguous and charming lights, and the occasional intersection of the two people's eyes, undercurrents surging.
He was wearing a suit with a rose brooch on his chest, looking as noble as a little prince.
Tu Xi looked at him quietly with a satisfied smile on her lips.
To outsiders, Xia Yan's words just now were really ruthless; but he knew that the moment he agreed, he finally pried open the hard shell of the young man's heart and touched the soft inside.
Maybe he only touched a little bit, the position was insignificant, but he had already entered.
With Xia Yan's character, as long as he didn't break up, they would be entangled forever. Maybe it would be five years, or maybe it would be ten years, twenty years... One day, he would make him truly fall in love with himself.
The piano music gradually came to an end, and the people around him started talking without knowing when.
The low voices made it difficult to hear clearly.
Their eyes were focused on the young man, and there was a flash of infatuation in their eyes. When they followed the young man's line of sight and saw Tu Xi, it turned into jealousy and disgust. Something is wrong,
Jin'er.
Tu Xi thought.
Too much malice.
Finally, the last note fell.
People woke up from the beautiful illusion, and before they could applaud, they heard the sound of tables and chairs colliding violently. A tall man knocked over tables and chairs, ran to Tu Xi, and splashed coffee on him: "You pervert."
With the first person starting, the rest of the people also took action, throwing cups from a distance.
"Damn it, I'm still a fan of you two, but following you is so disgusting."
"Are you pretending to be gentle and considerate, tui."
"Xia Yan broke up with him, and he sent someone to follow you."
...
Countless noisy voices mixed together, Tu Xi was pointed at by thousands of people, as if he was a criminal on patrol in ancient times, and people threw everything they had on hand at him.
Coffee, cakes, fruit plates.
At this moment, people turned into monsters and surrounded them.
Xia Yan didn't have time to think about it, he ran over quickly and pulled Tu Xi away. One of the cakes hit him, it didn't hurt, but the cakes were all over his body, dirty, and disgusting.
"Are you crazy? Or do you want to go to the police station?"
"Sorry, I didn't mean to hit you, Yanyan, does it hurt?" The man who smashed the things panicked and tried to wipe him clean with a handkerchief, but was thrown away by the young man, "Get lost, don't touch me."
"Yanyan, you haven't been online, so you don't know... He, he is a pervert, and has hired a private detective to follow you." The man was yelled at and his face turned pale, but he still insisted on exposing Tu Xi's true face, hoping that Xia Yan would "turn to the light".
Xia Yan was unmoved, and said with a fake smile: "So? Does this have anything to do with you?"
Because of his sudden interruption, the atmosphere became strange.
People around him complained one after another.
Xia Yan glanced at Tu Xi. The man stood there expressionlessly. Coffee was splashed on the side of his cheek. The warm liquid flowed down his neck and into his clothes, making him look sticky.
His body was also covered with stains, and he looked very disheveled.
Xia Yan made a light "tsk" sound, looked at the people around him who claimed to be righteous, and suddenly laughed. He looked at them with contempt and said condescendingly: "Do we need you to interfere in our affairs? Who do you think you are?"
"We are your fans!!!"
"Fans? Did I ask you to be your fans?" Xia Yan shrugged, "Whether you love me or not, what help can it have on my life?"
Someone said indignantly: "Without our support, how can you get the endorsement."
"Did you give me the Beaufort endorsement?"
"..."
There was an awkward silence, and the young man said lightly: "Besides, I have always known that Tu Xi was following me."
