After the show, the bands had dinner and drinks again, and the party lasted until dawn. After the show, the few people who had just passed by returned to the hotel to rest for a few hours, and at noon, they took the high-speed train back to Huaicheng.
I spent half a day at the music festival yesterday and stayed up late drinking. Even the energetic Jibang couldn't hold on any longer and didn't chat much in the group. Several people arrived in Huaicheng in the afternoon, and after arriving in Huaicheng, they went home to rest.
Before going to bed, Qi Yuan still hadn't forgotten about dinner.
Tang Miao happened to have an evening class tonight, and it was almost eight o'clock when it ended. Dinner was scheduled for 8:30, and everyone went directly to the restaurant where they had agreed to have dinner.
After Qi Yuan sent the message in the group, several people replied "Got it" one after another. Tang Miao also replied "ok", and then the group fell silent.
Tang Miao returned to the chat interface and took a look at the pinned chat box with He Xiao.
After there were no more messages in the group, He Xiao sent a private message.
Seeing He Xiao's message, Tang Miao lowered his eyes, smiled, and typed a few words.
After Tang Miao sent this message, He Xiao didn't send any more messages for a while. He should have arrived home just now, and he should have taken a rest when he got home, and he should have taken a shower before resting.
Tang Miao did not check her WeChat messages anymore. Instead, she was browsing some scenic spots around Huaicheng on her phone. She had been in Huaicheng for a while, but she had not had a good time in Huaicheng yet.
While she was scrolling, a reply message from He Xiao popped up on the screen.
The pop-up message stayed on the screen quietly for a while before it gradually faded and became thinner. Tang Miao looked at the string of words that slowly faded away, and her finger touched the pop-up window of the message before it completely disappeared.
The message pop-up window opened and she entered the chat box between her and He Xiao. Tang Miao looked at the chat history between her and He Xiao in the chat box, and a smile slowly appeared in her eyes.
Tang Miao finished his last piano lesson at eight o'clock in the evening.
After the piano lesson, Tang Miao said goodbye to the student. Because this was the student's last lesson with her, the student was reluctant to leave her. Originally, the class this student signed up for during the summer vacation was an interest class, but after taking classes for a while, she seemed to be interested in piano.
Before the class today, the child expressed to her mother that she wanted to continue taking piano lessons. Seeing that she really liked it, her mother did intend to train her in piano.
In this way, in addition to being reluctant to leave the child, the child's parents consulted Tang Miao on some piano-related issues. Tang Miao held the child and chatted with the parents for a while. After more than ten minutes, the two finished chatting, and the parents asked the student to say goodbye to Tang Miao and led the child out of the piano classroom.
Smiling as he watched the students and parents leave the piano classroom, Tang Miao turned around and glanced at the clock in the classroom. It was already twenty past eight.
After checking the time, she closed the lid of the piano next to her, tidied up the piano classroom, turned off the air conditioner, closed the door and left the second floor.
Piano teachers have fewer and fewer classes recently, so Tang Miao's class was considered late. Yu Yaya had finished today's class at around six o'clock and left early. On the second floor, only one male piano teacher was still giving a class.
Walking through the corridor of the piano classroom, Tang Miao went up the stairs and went downstairs.
Xiao Jiang was watching a TV series downstairs. After the piano store was idle, Xiao Jiang was also done with his work and was relatively free. Seeing Tang Miao coming down, Xiao Jiang said goodbye to Tang Miao and said good night. Tang Miao smiled and agreed, then pushed open the door of the piano store and left.
It was a little after eight o'clock in the evening, and the place outside the piano store was still bustling with activity.
Barbeque restaurants and hotpot restaurants are still very busy, but perhaps because the weather has cooled down, the atmosphere in the restaurants is not as hot as it was a while ago.
Tang Miao left the piano store and walked towards the roadside, ready to take a taxi home. But before she reached the intersection, she saw a figure standing there.
When Tang Miao saw the figure, she recognized him almost subconsciously. She quickened her pace and walked towards him. The other party seemed to notice her and turned to look at her when she came over.
When he turned his head to look at him, his body also turned. Tang Miao walked over, and because he walked too fast, he rushed into his arms.
The man's figure was tall and straight, and he was more than enough to handle her momentum. She rushed over like this, and the man's figure did not change at all. He raised his hand and grabbed her arm, holding her steady with his strength while also keeping her steady in his arms.
The two bodies were pressed together almost unconsciously.
The man's hand grabbed Tang Miao's arm, and her lost balance was stabilized. Her eyes sparkled, and she looked up at He Xiao in front of her and said with a smile.
After He Xiao answered, the light in Tang Miao's eyes seemed to be brighter than before. She leaned against He Xiao like that for a while before she stood up straight.
"Have they arrived yet?"
I was chatting with students' parents just now and didn't check the messages on my phone.
After Tang Miao asked this, He Xiao said, "On the way."
"Then let's go too." Tang Miao looked at him and said with a smile.
After Tang Miao finished speaking, He Xiao lowered his eyes to look at her smile and responded.
"Um."
After responding like this, He Xiao turned around and raised his hand to hail a taxi. His body and Tang Miao's body separated with his action, but at the same time, their hands hanging at their sides naturally clasped together.
Just like that, He Xiao raised his hand to hail a taxi, and Tang Miao beside him held his hand and looked at the direction the car was coming from. Not long after, the taxi came, and the two got in one after the other.

The few of them decided to have dinner in the evening at a private chef restaurant that Wuxiaoerguo often visited for dinner parties.
The dishes in this private kitchen restaurant are very different from the ones that a few people usually eat. After more than ten days of going out, either eating at food stalls or barbecue hotpots, you need to eat some healthy and light dishes occasionally to balance your taste.
Of course, before booking this restaurant, Qi Yuan also asked Tang Miao for her opinion. Tang Miao was not picky about food, and for her, eating with Qi Yuan and his friends was secondary, and she was more interested in chatting with them.
Ever since Tang Miao suddenly came to Haicheng and left, it had been ten days since they last met. When Tang Miao and He Xiao came over, the food on the table was almost ready. Qi Yuan and Ji Bang were chatting. When they saw Tang Miao come in, Ji Bang looked up and grinned at her.
"Tang Miao!"
Ji Bang called out, and Qi Yuan and Lin Ye also looked up. When Tang Miao looked over with a smile, Lin Ye also smiled at her, and after Qi Yuan and Tang Miao nodded slightly to say hello, they looked at He Xiao next to them.
"You just stared at Tang Miao. Xiao also came over, but you didn't even say hello."
When Qi Yuan said this, he stood up and pulled out the chair in front of Tang Miao. After hearing what he said, Ji Bang looked at He Xiao with a smile and said, "I see Xiao every day, so why should I say hello to him? But I haven't seen Tang Miao for a long time, and I miss her a lot."
After saying that, Ji Bang looked at Qi Yuan and asked, "Don't you want to?"
"I'd like to think about it. Of course I miss you after not seeing you for such a long time." Qi Yuan replied to Ji Bang with a smile.
They were in a private room, which was not big, but the atmosphere was just right. As soon as Tang Miao came in, he recalled the feeling when they had dinner together after the music festival.
She really likes this relaxed and happy atmosphere with friends. After Qi Yuan finished speaking, Tang Miao looked at the three of them and said, "I miss you too."
After Tang Miao said this, several people looked at her and laughed.
-
Although they haven't seen each other for ten days, their relationship and feelings are better than ten days ago. Today, they just eat and chat, don't drink, and without work pressure, Qi Yuan and his friends are more relaxed.
After the food was served, everyone ate while chatting about what had happened in the past ten days.
In fact, Tang Miao already knew most of what had happened to them over the past ten days. She had watched the recordings of their performances at the music festival. As for their performances at the livehouse, she had seen some of them from Yu Yaya's powerful circle of friends.
As for some private matters, Ji Bang and Qi Yuan would talk about them in the group. Some things that were not easy to talk about on WeChat were just discussed at the dinner table. They were nothing more than some performances, bands, and songs.
When they arrived at the door of their house, they let go of each other's hands. He Xiao pressed the fingerprint lock of his own door, while Tang Miao took the key and opened the door.
After talking about the past, they talked about the future. Ji Bang still hadn't forgotten what they had agreed to do when they had their first meal with Tang Miao.
After the car left the sight of several people, Tang Miao also retracted her body. She retracted her body, leaned back on the backrest of the seat, and turned her head to look out the window on her side.
-
"What? You still don't want to give us your photo?" Qi Yuan said with a smile.
As soon as the elevator door opened, Tang Miao and He Xiao walked down hand in hand. As they walked down, Tang Miao looked up at the voice-controlled lights in the corridor and said.
The meal was relaxed and enjoyable.
The meal lasted for two hours. At the end, everyone basically stopped eating and just chatted.
The sound-activated lights in the corridor had been turned on because of the sound of the elevator arriving. The light was neither too bright nor too dim, and it clearly illuminated the corridor in front of us.
"Good night then." Tang Miao and He Xiao said.
It seems that not only them, but He Xiao also likes his neighbor very much.
After Qi Yuan said this, several people laughed.
After dinner, several people left the restaurant. When leaving, Qi Yuan and his friends each called a car. The car would arrive in a while, so several people stood at the door of the restaurant and continued chatting.
After Tang Miao finished speaking, He Xiao also looked at the voice-activated light with her. After taking a look, He Xiao responded and took her back to the doors of their respective houses.
In the past, He Xiao rarely sat with others. Basically, he either sat in a single row or in the front passenger seat. Now that he was going back with Tang Miao, he actually sat in the back seat with Tang Miao.
The neighborhood was quieter than usual at 11 p.m. There were only a few households with lights on in the windows of the residential buildings in the neighborhood. The two walked along the quiet neighborhood to their apartment building. After entering the elevator, they soon reached the 16th floor.
It only took a dozen minutes to get home from the restaurant.
He Xiao also said good night to her. Tang Miao looked at He Xiao and her eyes moved slightly. Then, she smiled and retracted her gaze and walked into her home.
Not long after, He Xiao and Tang Miao's car arrived first. After the car started, He Xiao looked at the license plate and looked back at Tang Miao. Tang Miao understood, ended the chat with Qi Yuan and Ji Bang, and said goodbye to them.
When the car arrived at the gate of the community, it stopped there. He Xiao paid the fare and got off the car with Tang Miao. After getting off the car, the two of them entered the community one after the other.
After Tang Miao said goodbye to a few people, she saw He Xiao had already opened the car door. After Tang Miao got in, He Xiao also sat in the back seat with her.
After walking in, Tang Miao pulled the door handle and slowly closed the door. The door was closed, and Tang Miao locked himself in the house, isolating himself from the outside sounds.
He looked at her quietly as she stood at the door, and then his hand reached out and slid along her bare shoulders to the back of her neck.
-
When his large, cool palm rested on the back of her neck, Tang Miao felt a strong pulling force pulling her in front of him.
Their hands touched each other, He Xiao spread his fingers, and Tang Miao inserted her fingers between his fingers. In the dark carriage, their hands were silently clasped together.
"But you also need to send me a photo of the silhouette." Qi Yuan looked at Tang Miao and smiled, and he also said this to her with a smile.
After Tang Miao finished speaking to He Xiao, she smiled at him. Looking at the woman's smile, He Xiao's expression did not change and he responded.
"Oh~ Then it's settled!" Ji Bang said, "Hey, Qi Yuan, talk to Sister Zhi. When the promotional sign is put up, put a picture of Tang Miao on it."
Tang Miao's body crashed into He Xiao's arms. She let out a light hum from her throat, and was swallowed all of her energy into He Xiao's body as he lowered his head and kissed her.
It's already eleven o'clock in the evening, it's almost time to rest.
Tang Miao looked at herself in the mirror, her heartbeat slightly heavier and faster with the sound of the door opening. After looking for a while, she turned around and left the bathroom and went to the door.
"Do you understand marketing?" After Ji Bang finished speaking, Qi Yuan complained about it.
As he looked over, Tang Miao raised his hand and then lowered it, grabbing He Xiao's hand.
Tang Miao didn't expect Ji Bang to still be talking about this matter, and after he finished speaking, Tang Miao did not avoid it, but smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay."
"It's fixed."
Summer may be over, but the band is not.
After she finished her shower, her wet hair hung down on her shoulders, and Tang Miao put on a nightgown. When she was tying up her half-dry, half-wet hair, there was a knock on the door.
"There will be a band compilation on the way back in September, and we will arrange your debut in our band then," said Jibang.
When he reached the door, Tang Miao glanced at the door mirror, then turned the door handle and opened the door.
The sound of the door closing next door was heard. Tang Miao pursed her lips and smiled, then raised her hand to turn on the light in the living room.
So it was past eleven o'clock, and she was not very sleepy. After arriving home, Tang Miao took off her clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Summer was slowly passing, and the weather was not very hot, but she still sweated a little, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
These things were somewhat similar, but Tang Miao listened very carefully and even laughed along with them when Ji Bang vividly described some unexpected situations that occurred while he was playing the drums.
"Yeah. Good night."
It was getting late. He Xiao had stayed up all night yesterday, had been on the bus for half a day today, and had been busy for two or three hours at night. Even though he was young, he should have felt tired.
At that time, they suggested inviting Tang Miao to join their band to perform. Tang Miao was embarrassed to perform at the music festival, so they arranged for them to perform together on the way back.
She stood in the entrance hall and waited quietly for a while. Not long after, she heard the sound of the door closing next door.
At night, the lights in the corridor were dim and the breeze was cool. Every household in the courtyard had turned off the lights at home, leaving only the dark windows.
The man and woman in the corridor were kissing each other. In a moment, the man picked up the woman in his arms, entered her home, and closed the door.
Ji Bang was not angry when Qi Yuan said this, he just said: "No, I was wondering why they all sat in the back."
"Okay." Tang Miao agreed. After agreeing, Tang Miao thought for a moment and said, "I'll just take a photo of the silhouette for you."
After Qi Yuan said this, Tang Miao smiled.
The two moved quietly, and the doors of their homes opened one after another. After the doors opened, the two stood at their respective doorsteps and looked at each other.
Tang Miao pushed open the door, and He Xiao's eyes looking at her also fell into her sight. The man's eyes were dark and deep in the shadow outside the door.
The knock on the door was short and gentle, as if something touched the blood vessels in her heart.
-
Tang Miao hasn't been particularly tired recently.
Seeing the two people go in one after the other, Ji Bang smiled and said, "Why are you still sitting together?"
The meal lasted until almost eleven o'clock in the evening.
The three people standing outside also waved to her as a farewell. As they were waving, the car left their sight.
While Ji Bang was mumbling, the driver of the car He Xiao and Tang Miao called asked if they wanted to leave. He Xiao responded, and Tang Miao stepped over He Xiao's body and waved to the people outside the car window.
As soon as the door opened, He Xiao, who was standing outside, lowered his eyes and looked over. He must have just taken a shower and changed his clothes, and there was still a cool water vapor and woody fragrance on his body.
"Tang Miao is the fifth member of our band. We should just put her silhouette on the promotional billboard, so as to whet the appetite of music fans." Qi Yuan said.
Although there are no music festivals, livehouse performances are still going on. Although not as frequent as in the summer, there is always one organized every month.
After Ji Bang said this, the two people in the car turned to look at him. As he finished speaking, Qi Yuan beside him laughed and said, "They live together, why would they sit with you if they don't sit together?"
Qi Yuan asked with a smile, but Tang Miao just smiled and said nothing. Qi Yuan said this as a joke, and it was okay for Tang Miao not to answer. After she didn't say anything, Qi Yuan also smiled and looked away without saying anything.
