Chapter 81
On the first day of the new year, Lan Shuqing followed Lan Zhaoting and Li Liyue to visit each family as planned. Jiang Bai went to see Amao, and some people sent New Year gifts to the Lan family one after another. The gifts from the Lan family had also been arranged and sent to each family.
On the second day of the New Year, City A organized a banquet, and the Lan family had long been among the invited guests. This time, Lan Shuqing brought Jiang Bai along.
On the third day of the new year, Jiang Bai and Lan Shuqing agreed to sell Jiang Bai's house in City A and entrust it to a real estate agent.
On the fourth day of the New Year, Li Liyue, Lan Qi, Lan Shuqing and Jiang Bai set off for Beijing. Li Liyue took her son there to discuss marriage, while Jiang Bai and Lan Shuqing went back early to buy a car.
Yes, Jiang Bai wanted to buy a car. Although her new home was closer to Beijing University and her new company, it was still inconvenient without a car. Furthermore, before buying a car, Jiang Bai needed to familiarize herself with it. She had gotten her driver's license a long time ago, but had never driven one.
Li Liyue and the Qiu family agreed to take Lan Qi back to City A. During this period, she lived with Lan Shuqing and Jiang Bai. In the next year, Lan Qi would still travel back and forth between City A and Beijing, so she hired an aunt to clean the upstairs every week. Well, it was the same aunt that Jiang Bai and the others hired.
On the seventh day of the New Year, Jiang Bai packed up his new home, spent a wonderful night with Lan Shuqing, and then went to work in high spirits the next day.
The new company needs some time to adapt, and Jiang Bai and Lan Shuqing also need to continue to adapt to each other's rhythm. As usual, Lan Shuqing gets up early to exercise, Jiang Bai gets up early to cook, and goes to work after dinner.
When Jiang Bai was about to go out, she would cling to Lan Shuqing for a hug. She said that hugging was a standard when going out and coming home. She would tell Lan Shuqing when she went out and when she came back. The same was true for other things. Jiang Bai always remembered Lan Shuqing's words and talked to her about everything, no matter how big or small, even if Lan Shuqing was slow to respond.
Before school started, Lan Shuqing read at home. Sometimes Jiang Bai worked overtime on weekends, and the two of them would stay in the study together. Jiang Bai would also buy flowers and food for Lan Shuqing every week, or go out to eat. Sometimes he would invite Fu Xiaoqian, sometimes Qiu Jinyue. If Lan Qi went to Beijing, he would also go with Lan Qi.
Gradually, Jiang Bai became familiar with Qiu Jinyue and Lan Qi, and occasionally the four of them would stay at home and play games, the kind of team battles.
Jiang Bai would prepare gifts for Li Liyue and Lan Zhaoting in City A during every festival, and would also buy and send gifts to them if he saw something suitable.
Li Liyue was addicted to playing video games in City A and often asked Jiang Bai about it. For this reason, Lan Zhaoting even asked Lan Shuqing if she could take care of it. Lan Shuqing said that he would take care of his wife himself.
Later, Lan Shuqing started school. She had basically no classes in her senior year, but she had already found a graduate supervisor in advance and had begun working with him. Sometimes she was at Peking University, and sometimes she went to other institutions. If they could go out at the same time, Jiang Bai would send her off and then pick her up after get off work.
Occasionally, Jiang Bai also has to help Lan Shuqing prepare materials. Jiang Bai doesn't want Lan Shuqing to work so hard, even though Jiang Bai's new job is also very busy.
During this period, Xie Rong came to Jing City to play once. Lan Shuqing was always busy and failed to ask her out, so Xie Rong had to come to Jing City to find her.
When Xie Rong saw Jiang Bai, she was so shocked that she was speechless. After Lan Shuqing's explanation, she took a long time to react. But later, Xie Rong finally understood why Lan Shuqing was so special to Jiang Bai.
In fact, Lan Shuqing is not an easy person to approach. She has her own rhythm and life and will not be affected by others. Only people who match her rhythm can keep up with Lan Shuqing's pace. To some extent, Xie Rong herself sometimes can't keep up with Lan Shuqing's rhythm, so she admires Jiang Bai very much for being able to be with Lan Shuqing.
Time passed quietly. One time, Beijing held a large comic exhibition and Qiu Jinyue was invited to attend. It was then that Jiang Bai learned that Qiu Jinyue was a painter, and a very good painter that Jiang Bai had been following for a long time. She liked Qiu Jinyue's painting style very much. Qiu Jinyue would draw her own paintings and comics, and would also collaborate with others on videos, animations and so on.
Lan Shuqing was absolutely not jealous of the fact that Jiang Bai liked Qiu Jinyue's painting style and had been paying attention to her for a long time. She was just secretly angry with Jiang Bai, and Jiang Bai had to coax her for a whole day before she calmed down.
That's how Qiu Jinyue learned that Jiang Bai was a great arranger with whom she had worked before, but Jiang Bai never showed up and only released her works, nothing else, so she has always been very mysterious in the circle.
Then Qiu Jinyue realized that it was no wonder that Jiang Bai was able to get the new version of the electronic game console from that game company, because some of the game music in it was made by Jiang Bai.
Of course it was easy for internal staff to get one, and they even got two. Moreover, the game console was not cheap. I heard that it had holographic images and supported online upgrades of game levels.
Lan Shuqing had known for a long time that Jiang Bai was arranging music online. Jiang Bai had briefly mentioned it to her before, but when Qiu Jinyue told her, she realized that Jiang Bai was well-known on a certain platform, that someone had pursued Jiang Bai before, and that there was a review of the incident on a certain platform. For this reason, Lan Shuqing made a three-day bet with Jiang Bai. Jiang Bai said she felt wronged because she couldn't remember many things herself.
Jiang Bai’s favorite is only Lan Shuqing.
One weekend, Lan Shuqing was wearing home clothes and lying on the lazy sofa in the study, playing with his mobile phone. Jiang Bai was working overtime to catch up with the progress. Lan Shuqing flipped through the comments on Jiang Bai's game composition on a certain platform.
Most of them are positive.
After the house in City A was sold, Lan Shuqing realized that Jiang Bai had not brought a lot of equipment to City Jing. Now the activity room has basically become a place for Jiang Bai to create.
Lan Shu flipped through the pages for a long time and came across an online interview with Jiang Bai a long time ago. At that time, Jiang Bai's voice and performance were still immature, but many people still liked her arranging style and liked her.
Jiang Bai saw that she was playing seriously. Lan Shuqing was still playing after finishing her work. She was a little curious and a little stingy. Is the mobile phone so fun?
So Jiang Bai turned off the computer, walked over, squatted down on the lazy sofa, and asked, "Lan Shuqing, what are you playing?"
By the way, I took a quick glance at Lan Shuqing's phone.
Lan Shu flicked off his phone and asked, "Are you done?"
Jiang Bai nodded. "Well," she asked again, "You haven't told me what you are playing yet..."
Lan Shuqing looked at her and suddenly asked, "Jiang Bai, were you lying to me when you sang earlier?"
Jiang Bai uttered an "Ah!", and she blinked, pretending to be dumbfounded, "No..."
Lan Shu narrowed his eyes slightly, "So is it true that you sing off-tune?"
Jiang Bai blinked again and changed the subject, "Lan Shuqing, are you hungry? I'll go get some food..."
As she was about to run, Lan Shuqing quickly stopped her, then exerted force, and Jiang Bai screamed and fell on Lan Shuqing.
The little girl squinted her eyes and looked at her, "Jiang Bai, tell the truth."
Jiang Bai said slowly, "It's okay, not too out of tune..."
The little girl pinched her waist and said, "You're teasing me again!"
Jiang Bai hurriedly said, "I don't have any!"
The little girl looked at her, "Huh?"
Jiang Baiyan said, "I just get nervous in front of you and sing out of tune."
Lan Shuqing was puzzled, "Why are you nervous?"
Jiang Bai's face turned red, "I'm afraid you'll feel bad..."
Hearing her say this, Lan Shu gently pinched her waist and accused her, "You don't believe me!"
Jiang Bai looked at her and said, "It's not a matter of belief or not, it's just that I get nervous."
At that time, she cared a lot about Lan Shuqing's opinion.
Lan Shu snorted softly and asked again, "Did you learn to arrange the music yourself?"
Jiang Bai stood up and leaned back on the lazy sofa. Lan Shuqing made some space for her, and the two of them squeezed together. Jiang Bai almost leaned in Lan Shuqing's arms.
There are other sofas to sit on, but the two of them just like to squeeze together.
Jiang Bai took Lan Shuqing's hand and played with it, "I learned from the teacher, and I also learned on my own."
Lan Shuqing was a little confused, "Teacher?"
Jiang Bai nodded. "When I was in college, an old professor at the music school next door was looking for an apprentice, and I studied with him for three years."
Lan Shuqing was surprised. "Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"
Jiang Bai laughed. "Professor Hao recruited apprentices to train his grandson. There were three of us at the time, plus his grandson, so we formed a small class. Every day, we accompanied Professor Hao and his friends to study music and listen to music."
Lan Shu leaned sideways and asked, "Are you still in touch?"
Jiang Bai shook his head. "Basically, no. After the three years of study, Professor Hao didn't want us to contact him, and then none of us kept in touch."
Lan Shu hugged her gently, "Jiang Bai, you are quite amazing."
Jiang Bai looked up at her, "Not as good as our Lan Shuqing."
Lan Shu snorted and said, "Since you like music so much, have you ever thought about furthering your studies?"
In Lan Shuqing's opinion, Jiang Bai is quite talented as he has reached his current level after only three years of study.
Jiang Bai thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait and see in two years. If I want to learn it then, I'll go and learn it." She really likes music and arranging music, but the most important thing right now is to improve herself according to the plan.
Jiang Bai leaned against Lan Shuqing's chest, holding Lan Shuqing's right hand outstretched, their slender fingers interlaced. The early summer sun shone into the living room from behind, casting a layer of gold. Jiang Bai smiled, "Lan Shuqing, your hands are longer than mine."
Lan Shu gently kissed her forehead, "Yeah."
