After He Xiao finished speaking, Ji Bang put his arm on the backrest of their row and said, "Hey, why don't you drink? We don't have a performance tomorrow. It's no use saying you don't want to drink, because Li Zhen and the others will definitely force you to drink."
Ji Bang said this, and He Xiao didn't say anything.
Tang Miao sat aside, listening to the conversation between the two. Her eyes fell on He Xiao, and after looking for a while, she retracted her gaze.
-
From the music festival to the hotel, the scenery along the way is beautiful.
During the journey, Tang Miao didn't talk much with He Xiao, but Ji Bang kept pulling her to talk to her about random things. It wasn't that hot today, so after the car turned on the heater for a while, the car windows were opened. The cool sea breeze blew in, and the natural wind was cool and comfortable. Without the obstruction of the car windows, the night view of Haicheng appeared more clearly in front of Tang Miao.
The night in Haicheng is not as bright as that in other cities, but it has a unique tranquility and leisure. The island is full of lush trees and rugged hills. Above the hills, the starry night sky is upside down. Under the night sky, the lights of the towering lighthouse rotate, like a white line connecting the door between heaven and earth, majestic and magnificent.
In an island city like Haicheng, in addition to being surrounded by its own scenery, you can often also feel the scenery beyond the island.
On the small island, people look at the vast world and realize more clearly how small human beings are.
Human beings are inherently small, but small human beings can contain emotions as vast as the universe. This is also the special thing about human beings.
Tang Miao sat in the car, looking out the window, listening to Ji Bang describing the scenery of the island to her. He had taken photos of this place for her, and he had uploaded a short video of this place...
Ji Bang kept talking all the way, and he said that no matter how fast he spoke or how much he said, Tang Miao always listened with a smile. She was very quiet and a good listener. She seemed to have a unique tolerance, which made Ji Bang like her very much.
In this way, with Jibang chattering all the way, the group returned to the hotel.
-
The car stopped in front of the hotel.
After the car stopped, He Xiao opened the door, and Ji Bang also stopped talking and got out of the car with He Xiao. Four people got out of the car, and Tang Miao was still sitting in the car. Qi Yuan looked at Tang Miao sitting in the car door and asked, "Are you not going back to the room?"
"No, I'm not sweating much." Tang Miao said with a smile while sitting in the car.
"Okay, then let's finish it quickly." Qi Yuan said this, and Tang Miao nodded with a smile.
When Tang Miao nodded, Qi Yuan closed the car door. Before closing it, Ji Bang raised his hand and waved at Tang Miao playfully. Tang Miao smiled when she saw him like this.
"Why are you so clingy?" After closing the car door, Qi Yuan entered the hotel lobby with He Xiao and the others.
The doorman of the hotel lobby blocked Tang Miao's car outside. It was only at this time that Qi Yuan complained about Ji Bang.
It wasn’t so obvious last time, but this time he clearly felt that Ji Bang really liked Tang Miao.
"I'm not sticking to you." Ji Bang was ridiculed by Qi Yuan and he immediately refuted back without giving anyone a chance.
"Thank goodness you didn't stick to me. It's really annoying. Only Tang Miao has a good temper and listens to you chattering endlessly." Qi Yuan rolled his eyes and raised his hand to press the up button of the elevator.
"What does it have to do with you?" Jibang also rolled his eyes.
When Ji Bang was saying this, Qi Yuan suddenly turned around and said to Ji Bang with a smile: "Hey, you are not in love with Tang Miao, are you?"
After Qi Yuan finished saying this, not only Qi Yuan, but also He Xiao and Lin Ye beside him looked at Ji Bang.
Jibon, who was being watched: “…”
"No." Ji Bang was being stared at by six eyes, and for a moment, his scalp was tightened. He quickly raised his hand and said this. After saying this, he broke away from this atmosphere, frowned and looked at Qi Yuan, and said, "Hey, why are you so vulgar."
"In this world, is there no other emotion between men and women besides love?"
"I just simply like Tang Miao. I like her gentleness and how comfortable it is to get along with her. I feel very relaxed when I am with her. I also like to talk to her. And it seems that she will listen patiently to whatever I say to her."
"I feel like she treats me much better than you guys do."
After Ji Bang finished talking about his feelings for Tang Miao, he did not forget to pull the three people around him. While he was pulling, the elevator had arrived, and the four people walked in.
"The three of us can't stand you. Why don't you think about your own problems?" Qi Yuan said.
"Then I'll have no problem with Tang Miao," Ji Bang said.
After Ji Bang finished speaking, he glanced at He Xiao and muttered softly, "If Xiao hadn't stopped me, I would definitely have recognized her as my sister."
When the title "sister" was mentioned, He Xiao glanced at Ji Bang.
"Hey, I just said that casually." Being looked at by He Xiao like this, Ji Bang said this with a smile.
He Xiao neither refuted nor affirmed what he said, but just retracted his gaze.
"In fact, I have always felt that the title of 'sister' is quite awkward."
Ji Bang mentioned "sister", Qi Yuan said this with a smile. After he finished speaking, Lin Ye beside him even nodded.
People like them who play in a band usually call each other by their names, or add "brother" or "sister" after the name. It is rare for them to call each other "sister" directly.
There are some people who call him "brother", either politely, respectfully, or in a sticky and coquettish way.
Few people call her "sister". Of course, if she is called "sister", it may be because the younger brother is being coquettish. But men and women are different at this time.
It seems that calling someone "brother" is normal, but calling someone "sister" is a bit inappropriate.
If you think about it carefully, calling out like this suddenly is much more exciting than a girl calling a boy "brother".
To be honest, although Tang Miao is not that delicate and beautiful, she has a kind of "sister" feeling. It's not the kind of comfort that Ji Bang said that makes people want to get close to her and feel that they will be accepted. It's another kind of special hormonal feeling that comes from the collision with her brother who has a completely different personality from her.
Of course, for this kind of collision to occur, they must really have developed love for her. If they have developed love for her, then Tang Miao is a "fatal attraction" to his "brother"
After Qi Yuan finished speaking, Lin Ye nodded along with what he said. Qi Yuan turned around and raised his eyebrows at him, while Ji Bang, his silly son, was still asking "What's wrong with it?"
As they were talking, the elevator arrived at their floor and several people got off the elevator while talking.
-
Because Li Zhen was in a hurry, the four of them took a shower and changed clothes quickly this time. Tang Miao was still chatting with the driver about the scenery of Haicheng in the car when the door was opened and Ji Bang rushed up in a hurry.
After Ji Bang got in the car, Lin Ye followed him in. At the same time, the front passenger door was opened and Qi Yuan got in. After the three people were seated, He Xiao supported the door with his arm, got in the car and sat next to Tang Miao, and then closed the door next to him.
The four people had just showered and changed their clothes. They still had the minty scent of the hotel shower gel on their bodies, and a layer of moist water vapor after taking a shower. Tang Miao watched the four of them take their seats one by one. After Qi Yuan told the driver the address, Tang Miao glanced at He Xiao, then glanced at the other three people, and said with a smile.
"You guys were really fast this time."
Last time, she was also waiting in the car for them to get in. But He Xiao came first, and she even chatted with He Xiao alone in the car for a while before the three of them finally arrived.
This time, it was still He Xiao’s time gate, but the other three came together.
"Lizhen keeps calling me, so I have to hurry up." Jibang said. After Jibang returned, he simply washed himself, wiped his body, put on his clothes, and rushed downstairs.
And with his fast speed, he just happened to bump into three other people in the elevator.
After hearing Ji Bang's words, Tang Miao's eyes curved and he said calmly, "This is it."
After saying this, Tang Miao didn't say anything else. After the car left the hotel, it sped towards the bar where Li Zhen had ordered food. This was a completely different scene along the way. Ji Bang was talking to her again.
The hotel was not far from the bar, and within ten minutes, the car stopped in front of the bar.
The car stopped, and the four people who had whizzed past got off first, and Tang Miao finally followed them down. After getting off, Tang Miao glanced at the scene in front of him.
They were in front of a four-story villa building.
The villa's outer buildings are European-style and look a bit old, with mottled walls and covered with ivy. The villa has four floors, the first floor is the busiest, the second and third floors are relatively quiet, and the fourth floor... There is no light on the fourth floor, as if it has disappeared into the night sky.
This area is located in the suburbs of Haicheng. Besides being quiet, the scenery is also very lush. There are mountains, forests, beaches, and the sea. This area and the music festival are located at two opposite corners of this island city. Here, you can be completely isolated from the noise of the music festival and have a different flavor.
After the five people got off the car, Qi Yuan took them along the stairs outside the villa to the restaurant on the second floor.
-
In the restaurant, the band members of Ziermao were already waiting.
There are three members in the band of Ziermao. Li Zhen is the guitarist, there is also a bassist, a keyboardist, but no drummer.
This is normal for a band. Generally speaking, drummers are the most mobile in a band. Some even follow several bands and work several jobs. They usually don't appear in front of fans, so their presence is low. It is rare to find a drummer like Jibang who has a strong presence and only belongs to one band.
But Jibang's work has always been casual. Playing drums in Howling Pass is enough for him to make a living. Even if it is not enough, he is not a drummer for the money. He just likes Howling Pass and only plays drums for Howling Pass. It doesn't matter whether he makes money or not. He just wants to be with the four people in Howling Pass.
After entering the restaurant, the two band members simply greeted each other. They had known each other for a long time, and they were performing together today and had crossover performances, so they didn't need to be so strict in greeting each other.
However, it was nothing for the band to greet each other carelessly, but this was the first time Tang Miao and his group met. Qi Yuan introduced Tang Miao seriously, and also introduced Tang Miao to several members of the Zai Er Mao. Tang Miao smiled and greeted them.
"My name is Tang Miao."
"The fifth person." The keyboard player of Ziermao is a lively person. Although he plays the same instrument as He Xiao, he doesn't interact much with He Xiao. The main reason is that He Xiao doesn't interact much with anyone, and he is a chatterbox, so he has a much better relationship with Ji Bang.
The two of them communicated a lot in daily life. Ji Bang also talked to him a little about Tang Miao, and the keyboard player also knew a lot about Tang Miao.
But today is the first time I see you.
To talk about the feeling of meeting Tang Miao, it was quite strange and surprising. Because Tang Miao looked too good, and they didn't seem to be from the same world as a group of bad people.
After he finished speaking, Tang Miao simply smiled at him and said, "Yes."
"You are also the keyboard player, right?" The keyboard player saw her smile and asked with a smile.
"I guess so." Tang Miao said.
"We are the same." The keyboard player found his colleague and went over to shake hands with Tang Miao.
This guy has a lively personality and looks young, and he is somewhat similar to Ji Bang. Tang Miao was not too shy and shook hands with him. Then, he nodded and said hello to the bassist.
The bassists in the band all looked calmer, and the bassist of Ziermao and Lin Ye gave people a similar feeling. However, due to his exposure to some band culture, Tang Miao always looked at the hands of the bassist involuntarily after seeing him.
Sure enough, another pair of beautiful hands.
Tang Miao didn't shake hands with the bassist, but simply nodded. But when it came to Li Zhen, Li Zhen was much more enthusiastic and gave her a hug on the head.
"We don't need any introductions."
"I'm Lizhen, the guitarist."
“This is my sister.”
After Li Zhen hugged Tang Miao, she pulled Tang Miao to sit next to her and introduced Tang Miao's new identity to the two people in her band.
After the introduction, Li Zhen looked at He Xiao and raised her eyebrows at him.
When Li Zhen did this, He Xiao didn't say anything. He just glanced at Tang Miao, and Tang Miao looked at him and smiled at him. Seeing Tang Miao's smile, He Xiao pulled out the chair beside him and sat down at the dining table.
-
Today is the Haicheng Music Festival.
Most of the customers who usually come to the bar have gone to the music festival, so the bar seems particularly deserted today.
No matter how quiet it was, there were always people in the bar downstairs, so Lizhen talked to the bar owner directly and they just drank on the second floor.
If you want to drink something, just tell the boss on WeChat, and the waiter downstairs will bring the wine up, which is very convenient.
In fact, the second floor was originally a bar room. It can provide food and beverages, and any wine you want will be delivered directly. There is also a hollow space on the second floor, where you can see the scene downstairs.
The lights from downstairs shine directly onto the second floor. The atmosphere is no worse than that on the first floor, and it's even more spacious and comfortable.
Moreover, this hollow space is opened up, which happens to face the performance stage downstairs.
Today is the music festival in Haicheng. There are few people in the bar, but the performances are still going on. However, today's performance is by the singers who usually perform in the bar, and they all sing soothing love songs.
Given the atmosphere today, those who like lively atmosphere have all gone to the music festival, and those who stay behind naturally like to listen to these soothing songs.
Being able to perform in a bar requires incredible singing skills. The male singer's voice is deep and magnetic, and the soothing music accompaniment and dim lighting make the bar seem like it has been immersed in a jar of old wine, and even everyone's body and mind are relaxed.
After returning from a lively music festival, the members of Howling Past and Cats were fed up with the noise, and this atmosphere and feeling were just right.
They have always sung for others, but now listening to others singing and relaxing themselves physically and mentally is a different experience.
But this kind of enjoyment did not last long. After the singer finished his song, the bar owner called out to the people upstairs from the stage below.
"Lizhen, come over here and sing a song."
After the bar owner shouted this, Li Zhen's voice came out helplessly from the second floor.
"Boss, let me take a break."
"I booked a venue for you today, and you said you owed me a performance." The boss said to her with a smile.
"In the future." Li Zhen said.
"Right now," said the boss.
"My style doesn't suit it either." Li Zhen smiled, "Don't drive away the guests downstairs."
After Li Zhen finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from the second floor.
"Don't think I don't know." The boss also laughed, "Don't you have love songs too? Sing love songs."
After the boss said this, Erlou Lizhen stood up and walked to the hollow fence. She lowered her head and looked at the boss with a smile, and said with some helplessness.
"I really don't want to take advantage of you once."
"Come down quickly." The boss laughed and waved his hand.
Lizhen really went down.
-
Li Zhen can indeed sing love songs.
And it’s a love song I wrote myself.
The band style of Ziermao is rather seductive and weird, but it is not so fixed, just like if you play heavy metal, you may occasionally write a lyrical song.
Li Zhen wrote this love song a few years ago. She had performed it at music festivals before. But in recent years, she rarely sings this song.
Originally, it was quite suitable to just listen to the songs on the second floor. But some people in the dinner party went to the first floor to sing, so naturally they could see her performance better on the first floor.
So after Li Zhen went downstairs, several people on the second floor also scratched the wine bottles and followed her downstairs.
The group of people came downstairs in a mighty procession, and then sat in groups of three or four near the front of the stage. Li Zhen, who was originally tuning her guitar, looked up and was startled at the sudden appearance of several people.
"Why are you all down here?"
"You scared me."
"Come down to watch your performance." Qi Yuan said, "Listen to you sing a love song."
"It's not like I haven't heard of it before." Li Zhen said with a smile.
"That was so many years ago." Qi Yuan said.
"Okay. I haven't sung in years, so don't laugh at me if I'm out of tune," said Li Zhen.
"That's for sure." Qi Yuan said.
"Hey, do you only want to play guitar and sing? Do you want anything else? There are all kinds of musicians here, you can choose as you like." said the keyboard player of the kitten cat.
After he said this, Lizhen looked at him and said, "Ah, yes, we do need a keyboard player."
After saying that, Li Zhen raised his finger and pointed at He Xiao who was sitting next to him.
"It's decided to be you! He Xiao whooshed past!"
Keyboardist: “…”
-
When Li Zhen pointed his finger at him, He Xiao was drinking lemon tea. He didn't drink alcohol today, so he tried almost all the drinks in the bar.
Li Zhen raised her finger and pointed over. He Xiao looked up at her, then stood up from his seat and went on stage together.
When Li Zhen said she needed a keyboard player, a keyboard was brought up on stage. Li Zhen sat on a high stool with the microphone at her lips. She turned her head and looked at the guitar. After a while, He Xiao also walked to the keyboard beside her.
The lights were still dim, but after both of them stood on the stage, a slightly brighter light shone on them.
Before coming to the bar, Li Zhen also went back to take a shower and change clothes. She was wearing simple clothes and removed her makeup.
Even with simple attire and no makeup on, she could not resist the natural beauty of her looks and temperament under the lights.
She only tied her hair into a high ponytail. Because her hair was permed, the high ponytail was also tied loosely, making her head look very high. Under the head was a white oval face with deep and beautiful facial features.
She is the traditional beauty with strong makeup, big eyes, a high nose bridge, full lips, and a little bit of smile lips, which reduces her aggression and brings some sweetness.
She was like the heroine in novels or cartoons who would attract attention wherever she went. In contrast, He Xiao was the hero.
After He Xiao returned to the hotel, he took a simple shower and even washed his hair. At first, his hair was not completely dry and he didn't tie it up.
When he went downstairs just now, he casually tied the hair on his forehead and ears into a half ponytail on top of his head. With the ponytail tied up, his face, which was originally somewhat obscured, was now completely and cleanly revealed.
Tang Miao always felt that He Xiao was like a jade sculpture.
It is a white jade sculpture that can be called a work of art, a culmination of centuries of aesthetics, with the most sophisticated technology, in which every facial feature, every blood vessel, and even every hair is carefully carved.
He had a straight and slender figure, and was tall and straight, and when the light shone on him, it could even see through his cold pale skin, making his complexion glow from the inside out.
His hair was not too dark, and under the light, it looked lighter. It was light and translucent, and he tied his hair casually. This casual style did not destroy his beauty, but instead gave him a natural laziness.
After going on stage, he stood in front of the keyboard, lowered his head and talked to Lizhen for a few words.
During the conversation, the two bodies moved closer together, as if a painting was deliberately folded, allowing the male and female protagonists who were originally separated to meet each other.
This is the scene that the audience likes to watch most in every painting.
It is also the ending that readers like to read the most in every novel.
Tang Miao sat in the audience, watching them talk seriously about the next performance. They had similar interests, they were both musicians, both lead singers, they seemed to be one.
After talking for a while, He Xiao listened to Li Zhen's words and nodded. Li Zhen also smiled at him, turned the high stool to face the microphone, raised her hand and played a note on the guitar.
-
Lizhen sang this song very beautifully.
The song she sang was completely different from the one Tang Miao had heard her sing at the music festival. At the music festival, Ziermao's song was like the temptation and cry of a mermaid in the deep sea. But this song was like a mermaid sitting on a high rock by the sea at night, looking at her beloved prince and murmuring softly.
Li Zhen has a very nice voice.
Apart from the voice she performed at music festivals, her true voice is actually soft and sweet, like milk soaked in strawberries, mellow and sweet.
And she also put her full emotions into this love song, she sat on a high stool, her eyelashes drooping, and uttered the lyrics of the song in a low voice.
She seemed to be drawn into the longing for love that could not be obtained by this song. While singing, she even turned around to look at He Xiao beside her.
He Xiao was playing the keyboard. He had never practiced this piece of music before, but Li Zhen gave him the music score. After reading it once, he roughly knew the direction of the melody and could basically play it without the score.
When Li Zhen looked at him, he also noticed Li Zhen's gaze and looked back at her.
Under the lights, Li Zhen sat there quietly, holding a guitar in her hands, singing while looking into his eyes. When their eyes met, a smile appeared in Li Zhen's eyes illuminated by the lights.
Seeing the smile in her eyes, He Xiao did not show any emotion. After Li Zhen finished laughing, she turned around and continued singing.
In this way, the two of them sang the song together.
-
This song originally tells a story about a feeling of being unable to get love.
The appearance of He Xiao and Li Zhen on the stage seemed to bring the song to life. After the song was over, the audience remained quiet. Li Zhen looked at the people in the audience and smiled as she played the guitar.
"What? Are you stupid?" Li Zhen said.
When Li Zhen's rhythmic guitar music sounded, the few guests in the bar applauded. Li Zhen looked at the guests and nodded as if in gratitude.
"Why don't you sing this song anymore? It's pretty good."
Among the following people, Qi Yuan was the first to react. After listening to Li Zhen's song, he really felt that Li Zhen could perform this song at the music festival.
"Is it possible that this effect is just because He Xiao played the keyboard for me?"
After Qi Yuan finished speaking, Li Zhen said this with a smile.
After Lizhen finished speaking, the keyboard player of Ziermao said: "Hey, don't go too far!"
"Do you want to give He Xiao to our band?" Li Zhen was getting more and more outrageous.
The keyboard player of Ziermao: "Ah Zhen!"
"That won't work." Qi Yuan said with a smile, "A Xiao is not only the keyboard player of our band, he is also the lead singer of our band, the soul of the band! What will we do if he leaves?"
"Why don't we merge Whistling Past together and become relatives?" said the quiet bassist Cat.
The bassist finished speaking, and the keyboardist of the kitten cat said: "..."
"That's not impossible." Li Zhen thought about it seriously, turned back to look at He Xiao, and said with a smile: "Marry into the wife's family?"
"Why is it our Xiao who is the daughter-in-law?" Ji Bang was the first to be unhappy, "If we want to become in-laws, you should marry into our family!"
"You can't say that. It's not feminist." said the bassist of Kitten Cat.
The keyboard player of the kitty cat: "...It means I'm not dead yet."
The keyboard player muttered this, but still no one paid attention. Everyone started joking around, and the atmosphere became lively. After Li Zhen finished speaking, she looked at He Xiao seriously.
He Xiao glanced at her and said, "No."
"Tsk tsk!" Being rejected was also expected. Li Zhen clicked her tongue twice and said, "You are so heartless and don't even give me face."
As they were talking, Li Zhen jumped down from the high stool and put her guitar on it. After jumping down, she walked to He Xiao and said, "Then you can teach me how to play the keyboard. I have learned how to play the keyboard, so you don't need it."
The keyboard player of the kitten: "...I mean..."
Li Zhen seemed to be serious. After she walked to He Xiao's side, she put her fingers on the keyboard. Her fingers were also very beautiful. After landing on the keyboard, she played a few times.
After playing, Li Zhen tilted her head and looked at He Xiao with a smile and said.
"Teach me."
