I am just an ordinary person! Why do you like me?

The red thread was wrapped around their fingertips.

Sometimes it is relaxed and hanging down, sometimes it is tightly entangled.

It was as if it was whispering some secret words through the tiny hairs on the silk thread.

Shi Chenchen looked at the red line connecting himself and Zhixiang, and felt a little dazed.

Who would have thought that she would be playing the piano with Gu Wang here today, and in this way.

To outsiders, this behavior seems intimate enough.

But at this moment, neither of them had the heart to feel the excessive ambiguity in this.

They all had the same idea, which was to play the same song they had just played.

Shi Chenchen lowered his eyes and looked at the black and white piano keys, which showed his and Gu Wang's hands wrapped in red string.

She couldn't help but ask doubtfully:

"What's the name of this song?"

Gu Wang was silent for a moment. Even the brilliant and dazzling afterglow could not melt the emotions in his eyes. He replied calmly:

"Tears of a Mermaid"

Shi Chenchen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but his attention was quickly brought back by Gu Wang's pulling fingertips.

A soft and sad music once again leapt onto the two people's slender white fingertips.

When he started playing the piano, Shi Chenchen finally understood why Gu Wang asked him to wrap the red thread around his neck.

The red line at this time is like a silk thread that controls a puppet.

And I am the puppet who is completely controlled by Gu Wang.

Silently pulling, the machine moved its fingers.

Under the control of her fingertips, her self-awareness was taken away by the boy beside her.

It seemed as if she didn't need to have any thoughts of her own and just needed to play slowly following his rhythm.

Every time Gu Wang pressed a key, Shi Chenchen's fingers followed suit.

As long as the red line between them is kept straight, the melodies played by the two people will be completely synchronized.

The only difference is that the range of her playing is only two scales higher than Gu Wang's.

At this time, the two of them were playing the piano in a four-hand duet, but the speed of playing was extremely slow, almost like a fragment pieced together note by note.

It's like being in a deserted place, sitting alone on a large black rock by the sea, listening to the sounds of the sea and seagulls, and humming a little tune casually through your nose.

——Ethereal, yet beautiful.

Although it has such a slow tempo, the melody is extremely pleasant to the ear. Even an ordinary person passing by can appreciate the specialness of this piece of music.

As the keys moved up and down, the two of them worked together to weave this slightly stumbling but still gorgeous music.

On the piano keys, with their fingertips intertwined, their hands rise and fall in sync.

Gu Wang played very slowly.

With his eyelashes drooped, he occasionally observed Shi Chenchen who was sitting next to him.

The girl sat in the afterglow, but now night was falling and even the afterglow was gradually fading.

It illuminates the girl's body, which seems to gradually disappear into the darkness.

Not even a touch of orange was left.

Gu Wang suddenly felt a pang of pain in his heart. He didn’t know what was going on, but he just didn’t want to see the girl disappear.

So he stopped playing the piano, and under Shi Chenchen's puzzled gaze, he turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone.

The lights illuminated an area.

Shi Chenchen suddenly realized that it was Gu Wang who complained that the room was too dark.

Indeed, when he was playing the piano just now, there was plenty of light outside.

But now the sun was setting, and the light coming in from outside was only enough to illuminate the white or black outlines on the piano keys.

It is indeed too dark.

But Shi Chenchen was puzzled again. If he thought it was too dark in the room, why didn't he turn on the lights?

But looking at the red thread tightly wrapped around his and Gu Wang's hands, Shi Chenchen couldn't help but laugh secretly.

She was really confused. Although Gu Wang was "controlling" her, she -

At the same time, Gu Wang was also trapped.

The light switch is at the door, which is a little far away, so it is better to turn on the flashlight as a temporary fill light.

Shi Chenchen also smiled, took out his own cell phone, turned on the flashlight, and put it together with Gu Wang's cell phone.

Gu Wang looked at Shi Chenchen who was turning on the flashlight settings beside him.

In an instant, the strong light tore through the darkness like a sharp sword and instantly focused on her eyes. Her pupils shrank slightly at this moment.

Under the strong light, the girl's amber eyes seemed to be lit up and sparkled, just like a clear lake deep in the forest at dusk, sparkling under the setting sun.

It is as gentle as moonlight, and one seems to be able to feel a powerful energy in it.

There was only a fist's distance between them, and he could even clearly see her dense and long eyelashes, which were like an obsidian feather fan carefully woven, lightly curling over her eyes.

The light passed through the gaps between the eyelashes, and the slight tremor added a bit of haziness and mystery.

Shi Chenchen placed the back of his phone on the black piano stand, side by side with Gu Wang's phone.

In an instant, the light in the room became brighter, and the two beams of light intersected on the ceiling, as if lighting up the starry sky at night.

It's like the lights that light up their piano stage.

Shi Chenchen turned his head and looked at Gu Wang with a smile, and met Gu Wang's slightly stunned eyes.

There seemed to be a glazed glow in his dark grey eyes, which made his usually cold eyes reveal a hint of fragility.

Shi Chenchen was also slightly stunned when he saw this. This is...

What happened?

After a while, Chenchen accidentally touched the piano keys, making a sudden sound.

Gu Wang’s thoughts were also pulled back.

He lowered his head and looked at the piano keys in front of him, and said in a low voice: "We..."

"continue."

They started playing again, but perhaps because of the previous episode, the two seemed to feel an undercurrent hidden in the silence.

It was still a slow beat, and Shi Chenchen imitated Gu Wang little by little, just like a child learning to walk.

Shi Chenchen sighed inwardly.

The boy next to me obviously had such a hot-tempered and cold personality, but unexpectedly, when teaching people to play the piano, he was surprisingly patient.

It's just like teaching a kid who has just started to learn piano, taking her step by step and teaching her slowly.

Shi Chenchen smiled awkwardly.

Indeed, she had spent less than a day playing the piano.

Today she played the piano with Yi Xingchen, which was also the longest time she had played the piano so far.

And now——

Gu Wang used the entangled red string to lead her fingertips and played the whole song with Shi Chenchen.

"Tears of a Mermaid".
