Chapter 39 Can I Play Again?
The moonlight tonight is excellent, so clear and bright. The bright moon in the pond beside the water pavilion and the moon in the sky complement each other, shrouding the world in a hazy dream.
Chu Yunshu was in a leisurely mood. He walked to the guzheng, sat down, put on the artificial nails, and plucked the strings.
A ethereal and graceful melody flowed out from the slender and flexible fingertips. The music was like a silver butterfly emerging from its cocoon, flapping its wings with an ethereal sound, and slowly flew towards the clearer moon.
In Chu Yunshu's eyes was the spring in the night in front of the waterside pavilion in Jingyuan, but in his thoughts was that elegant and handsome face that always had a gentle smile.
"Pa pa pa pa" After the song ended, a burst of applause rang out. Chu Yunshu came back to his senses and turned his head to look over.
Under the watery moonlight, the visitor stood quietly in the light with a smile on his face.
She is tall and has long legs. Even without the complicated ancient costume, she is still tall and slender, elegant and handsome, covered in silver, like a banished immortal.
At that moment, Chu Yunshu vaguely saw the person in his mind just now, and the three words "Qi Xiubai" blurted out. After seeing the person's face clearly again, he coughed awkwardly.
"Hello, Mr. Ji."
He was still worrying about how to meet Ji Heng a few days ago, and now Ji Heng appeared in front of him. It was really like, after searching for a long time, he finally got it without any effort.
But how can I ask Ji Heng for the jade pendant?
Chu Yunshu was a little troubled.
"You play the piano well." Ji Heng stared at Chu Yunshu without much expression on his face.
"Thanks."
When they met again, there was no longer the indifference and coldness between them. Now that they were face to face, they were much more polite to each other.
"Mr. Ji, have you just arrived?" Seeing that Ji Heng had no intention of leaving, Chu Yunshu found a topic to talk about.
"Yeah." Ji Heng's answer was really concise.
So the car just now on Ginkgo Avenue was Ji Heng's?
It’s so late, and Ji Heng comes to Jingyuan... From this point of view, Mr. Leng is most likely Ji Heng’s grandfather.
Next, Ji Heng’s words confirmed his thoughts.
"I came to see my grandpa, so you are the little... friend he often mentioned?."
Chu Yunshu looked up in surprise, but saw that Ji Heng didn't mean to be joking at all and was speaking very seriously.
"Thank you for your kindness, old sir."
Because of the jade pendant, Chu Yunshu did not say goodbye and he always stood in front of the guzheng.
Ji Heng then walked in, sat down opposite Chu Yunshu, and motioned Chu Yunshu to sit down as well.
The servants quickly brought the tea set, which was different from the one they used during the day. Ji Heng was very skilled at making tea, and the whole process flowed smoothly. After making the tea, he poured a cup and handed it to Chu Yunshu.
"Grandpa said your name is Jinzhi?" He asked casually, as if he was just asking casually.
"Well, Jinzhi is my...nickname." I wanted to say "Jinzhi" is his courtesy name, but suddenly I remembered that people nowadays don't like to use nicknames anymore.
"Jinzhi." Ji Heng repeated it again in a low voice with an irresistible magnetism.
Chu Yunshu's heart couldn't help but beat heavily. He thought, maybe it was because the moonlight tonight was too gentle.
"Does the song you played on the variety show the other day have a name?"
Ji Heng changed the topic so quickly that Chu Yunshu didn't react for a moment: "What?"
Ji Heng was very patient. He took a sip of tea, put the cup down, and looked at Chu Yunshu with his dark and deep eyes. Even with the stars and the bright moon, it was difficult to see the expression in his eyes.
"Does the guzheng piece you played in the variety show "Music Journey" have a name?"
In fact, after Chu Yunshu asked "what", he already realized what Ji Heng was asking.
What surprised him was that others usually asked what his name was, but only Ji Heng asked if he had a name.
“No.” Chu Yunshu’s answer was the same as in the show, “I just heard someone play it by accident, but I don’t know the name.”
Maybe there was a name, but he had forgotten it.
Ji Heng did not ask any more questions, but instead made a request: "I wonder if I would have the honor of hearing you play that piece again."
Chu Yunshu doesn't know much about Ji Heng, and there is not much introduction about him in the book.
The ones mentioned most often are the Grand Slam actor, the rich young master, and the dream lover in many people's hearts.
These are all identity labels. As for his own personality and character, the book does not provide a detailed introduction.
After all, neither Chu Yunshu nor Ji Heng are the protagonists, nor are they important supporting characters, so they don’t need too much ink to describe them.
However, given Ji Heng's status and position, it was rare for Chu Yunshu to be so polite.
"Of course you can." Chu Yunshu rewrapped the artificial nails that he had taken off when drinking tea, gently stroked the strings of the guitar, and the melodious sound of the guitar flowed out.
The waterside pavilion is facing the moon. There are two people in the pavilion, one is holding a teacup, and the other is gently stroking the strings of a piano. Only the soft and melodious piano sounds, under the moonlight, compose a rare peaceful time.
Ji Chen stood quietly under the cedar outside the pavilion for a while, holding the documents in his hand, then turned around and left with a smile.
As soon as I returned to the main building, I saw Mr. Leng coming down from upstairs.
"Grandpa, did I wake you up?"
Ji Chen stepped forward and wanted to help the old man, but was stopped by him.
He waved his hand: "Who are these bastards who did this?"
Mr. Leng woke up when he heard the sound of the car. He thought the two brothers would chat for a while, so he didn't show up.
Let the young people handle their own affairs until they hear the floating piano music.
It was another piece of music he had never heard before, and Old Man Leng concluded that it was Chu Yunshu who was playing it without even making any guesses.
He had no idea how many surprises this child had.
But I didn't expect to see Ji Chen when I went downstairs: "Where's your brother?"
"Ji Heng is listening to music in the waterside pavilion." Ji Chen put the documents on the coffee table and poured a glass of water for Mr. Leng.
Old Master Leng was stunned for a moment, then his expression quickly softened.
He took the cup of water and sighed, "Was it your father's illegitimate child who did it, or your mother's?"
This is probably what is called the injustice of the previous life.
These two excellent children have such terrible parents.
Ji Rukong and Leng Ruying were in a free love relationship, and they were clamoring to get married after dating for less than three months.
Ji Leng's two families are well matched. Whether from the perspective of their talents and appearance or the interests of the two families, their marriage is undoubtedly the best.
Even from the very beginning, the two families had the intention of getting married.
So this marriage did not encounter any obstacles, it went smoothly and the wedding was very grand.
Even after many years, that "wedding of the century" is still talked about.
But at the same time, there was also constant talk of the couple's messy private lives after marriage.
It was fine when Ji Chen was born, but when Leng Ruying was pregnant with Ji Heng, Ji Rukong began to appear frequently in gossip news.
Today he is having a scandal with a young model, tomorrow he is going out with an internet celebrity, and two days later he is going to visit the set of a popular actress. It can be said that he is living a very carefree life.
Naturally, Leng Ruying could not hide such news, but she was very magnanimous and did not make a fuss, and even acquiesced to Ji Rukong's behavior.
Because at that time she was in a passionate relationship with her first love, and she even wanted to abort the baby so that she could rekindle her old love.
