I took the car home from the airport, and it was almost seven o'clock when I entered the city, and it was going to be dark.Even after sleeping all the way on the plane, Qi Chen's drowsiness never passed. Leaning against the car window, his head lowered every now and then.
The car turned a corner, and the body moved forward with inertia, and was about to hit the back of the seat, when the side suddenly stretched out a hand and blocked it in front of him.
After regaining consciousness, Qi Chen sat up straight and said in a vague voice, "Thank you."
"No need." Maybe it was because he was so uncomfortable, Pei Ruoyan said, "If you are still sleepy, you can lean on me."
"It's okay." Qi Chen rubbed his eyes, "We'll be there soon."
The turn just now was the last one. When entering a residential area, the car slowed down.
"Hey, is that Xiao Gu over there?" The driver Xiao Fang glanced at one place, and said to Qi Chen in the back seat, "He came to see you twice in the afternoon, and I said you went out with someone and haven't come back yet."
Gu Mingye is back?
Qi Chen looked up, and in the night, he saw the gate of his house and a white thing in the distance.He first recognized Gu Mingye's Samo called Yinyin, and then he recognized the person next to him walking back and forth in front of his house holding a leash.
Thinking that someone might have something to do with him, Qi Chen said, "Stop at the door for a while, I'll have a few words with him, you guys go back first."
Xu Shi recognized the license plate, Gu Mingye stopped and waited for him by the side of the road.
Qi Chen got out of the car and walked over, "Looking for me?"
"I sent you a lot of messages." Gu Mingye said in a low tone, "You didn't reply."
Qi Chen took out his mobile phone, and only then remembered that he had turned off the phone on the plane, and was so sleepy all the time, even in the car, Pei Ruoyan dragged him to find the way, and he completely forgot about the mobile phone.
"I forgot when I got off the plane." Qi Chen explained, and asked while pressing the power button, "Are you waiting for me?"
"I already know." Gu Mingye answered irrelevantly, "Ah Chen, don't be sad."
"Huh?" Qi Chen was a little confused, and was about to ask him what he knew, when he saw a message popped up on his phone, "Oh, you saw Auntie Pei."
"It's okay, Ah Chen." Gu Mingye seemed to want to comfort him, bent over and picked up Samo, who was looking up at them, and stuffed it into Qi Chen's arms, "You still have me, and Yinyin, we will be by your side your."
An adult Satsuma weighs nearly [-] kilograms. Qi Chen was caught in his arms unpreparedly and almost fell. He couldn't laugh or cry at the innocent dog's face, "What are you thinking?"
Qi Chen put the dog down, and scrolled through the chat history, only to realize that Gu Mingye thought he was getting angry at home, and ran away in the name of going out to play.
"...Forgive me, you're thinking too much." Qi Chen put away his phone, "Didn't Uncle Fang tell you that I went with Auntie Pei's son?"
"Eh..." Gu Mingye really didn't think about it that much, "Then you two are in touch? How does it feel? Is he easy to get along with? Who's older between you two?"
"Well, it feels okay, I'm older." Qi Chen replied one by one, "By the way, you know him too."
Gu Mingye: "???"
Qi Chen glanced at the figure walking this way inside the door, raised his finger, and said, "Here, it's right behind you."
Gu Mingye turned his head, almost jumping up in shock, "Pei Ruoyan???"
The person whose name was called stopped a few steps away from them, glanced at him, his eyes fell on Qi Chen, and his tone was not fluctuating, "Aunt Hu asked me to call you back for dinner."
Qi Chen said immediately, and asked Gu Mingye, "By the way, is grandma still in good health?"
"It's nothing serious." Gu Mingye said: "My dad brought grandma over here, she's at my house, by the way, she also asked me when you would be free to go there, she hasn't seen you for a long time."
"Then I'll go after dinner."
Qi Chen said goodbye to him, and chased after Pei Ruoyan.The latter seemed to be impatiently waiting for them at the door, and turned around and left after leaving a word.
Qi Chen caught up with him, secretly wondering why the relationship between the two still seemed so bad even though he hadn't done anything wrong.
"He also lives nearby?" Pei Ruoyan asked suddenly.
"Yeah." Qi Chen raised his hand and pointed at him, "It's over there, separated by two or three houses. Can you go later, I'll show you the door."
"Don't go."
Pei Ruoyan returned quickly, with a very cold attitude, but within half an hour, Gao Leng was forced to slap his face, and had to follow Qi Chen to visit the door with a fruit basket.
The reason is that Gu Mingye's grandma, who used to be the president of the Music Association, has just retired in recent years.Pei Ruoyan played the violin since elementary school, and Qi's father asked Qi Chen to take him to say hello.
Arriving at Gu's house, Grandma Gu was listening to the radio in the courtyard in a wheelchair.Qi Chen went up to say hello, and even introduced Pei Ruoyan to him.
It should be that Gu Mingye had already heard about Pei Ruoyan. Grandma Gu was not surprised by the latter's appearance, and even touched a hand-woven bracelet for them, "It turns out that you and Xiaoye each have one, this one will be given to you first." Little Pei, Xiaoye will give it to grandma next time."
The two thanked her, and Qi Chen helped her push her wheelchair back, "Where's Gu Mingye?"
"Upstairs is the piano room." Grandma Gu said, "Zi Ming is spot-checking him."
As they approached the downstairs, the sound of the piano became clearer and more melodious.Grandma Gu felt a little emotional, "I remember when you were young, Xiao Ye would jump down after sitting on the piano bench for less than 10 minutes, and you were the only one willing to practice with him."
Qi Chen said: "He plays pretty well now."
The two talked with the old man for a while, seeing that the time was almost up, they got up and said goodbye.
On the way back, Qi Chen asked Pei Ruoyan, "Did you bring your violin?"
"Bring it." Pei Ruoyan said, "What's wrong?"
"Freshmen start school next month, and there will be a welcoming ceremony for freshmen after the military training, right next to the school celebration. The literary and art committee may ask you to sign up for a performance, a piano ensemble, and maybe a girl singing." Qi Chen said: "You can prepare in advance. "
Pei Ruoyan: "...not interested."
"Don't do it." Qi Chen persuaded him, "It's for the class, it can give Lao Xia extra points."
Pei Ruoyan's tone was a little strange, "You really want me to participate?"
"That's right." Qi Chen said without hesitation, "You have just transferred here, and there is a chance for everyone to get to know you."
Having said that, there is another more important reason.In the original book, it was through the ensemble at the welcome party that the protagonist Gong Shou gradually changed from dislike to each other.
In order to get the plot of these two people on the right track as soon as possible and solve their worries, Qi Chen naturally tried his best to facilitate this matter.
Back at Qi's house, Pei Ruoyan finally let go, "Let me play it first, and I'll think about it after listening."
"...I haven't touched it for two years." Qi Chen had no choice but to take him to the piano room on the second floor.
Although it has not been used for a long time, someone is still maintaining it.Qi Chen tried a few notes, and looked at the person sitting on the other side, "Do you really want to listen to me? I accompanied Gu Mingye in the tenth exam, and I haven't touched it for two years."
"Why do you keep mentioning him?" Pei Ruoyan frowned, "Just play it casually, and I want to know the level of the ensemble partner?"
It's not me who is playing with you, Qi Chen couldn't help but slander.As long as Pei Ruoyan wanted to get a feel for Gu Mingye's level from his own bottom line, he didn't refuse anymore.
Focus on the keys and press them to the rhythm in memory.It is stagnant at first, but as soon as you enter the state, your fingers will jump spontaneously with muscle memory.
When the song ended, even Qi Chen himself was a little surprised, "It's okay."
"Let's make do, it'll be better if you become more proficient." Pei Ruoyan's tone finally became better, "Just fill it in for me when you sign up."
Qi Chen: "...I won't participate."
"Then why are you telling me so much." Pei Ruoyan immediately changed his tone, his tone was fierce, "Then I won't participate either."
"I didn't participate because I had other things to do." Qi Chen said, "I want to prepare for the preliminary competition of the chemical competition in September."
Pei Ruoyan was startled, and looked at him in surprise, "Are you going to participate in the competition?"
"Sign up in March." Qi Chen said.This is the plot also mentioned in the original book, but there is a little deviation.
In the original book, Qi Chen spent some time preparing for the competition in order to perform with Gu Mingye, and missed the rematch by a few points.Although he may not be able to enter the semi-finals after a few days, but now that he is vigilant, Qi Chen will naturally not lose the big for small things.
When I went to school the next day, Pei Ruoyan was indeed approached by the literary and art committee. He had filled out his enrollment form with special skills, so he knew it when he checked.
The literary and art committee member of class seven is a little girl with big eyes, no one can say anything too terrific if stared at by those big watery eyes.After being followed all afternoon like a tail, Pei Ruoyan was forced to nod in the end, and went to the music classroom to rehearse with Gu Mingye and others after school that day.
Qi Chen went home by himself after a week, happy like a fairy.
Time soon came to Friday, Qi Chen went to the chemistry group office to collect materials, passed by the grade office, and accidentally saw a person who shouldn't be here.
"Senior." Qi Chen greeted people, "Why are you here? Didn't the senior year move to the North Teaching Building?"
"Help a friend to deliver the materials." Shen Lingchuan turned to see him, and raised a stack of printing paper in his hand, "What about you?"
Qi Chen said: "I'm here to collect the materials Hua Jing needs."
"Hua Jing." Shen Lingchuan was thoughtful, as if he was about to say something, when the office door was opened and someone called him in, so he hurriedly waved to Qi Chen and entered the office.
Qi Chen took a look with his head, and vaguely recognized Lao Xia's voice.
It's strange that Shen Lingchuan came to Lao Xia to hand over some information at this time.This idea turned back and forth in Qi Chen's mind, but was soon forgotten by him.
After the weekend, entering September, the attached high school officially starts.
On Monday, Qi Chen was entrusted to the office to help with homework, knocked on the door, and happened to meet Lao Xia talking to a student.
The man was wearing a school uniform, but his back didn't look like anyone in the class.Just as Qi Chen was thinking, he heard Lao Xia call his name.
"Qi Chen, you came just in time." Lao Xia said: "This is a new transfer student in our class, the seat next to you is still vacant, right? Let him sit in your seat first. I still have something to do here. Take him into class first to get acquainted..."
Lao Xia said something later, but Qi Chen didn't listen to a single word.He stared at the person in front of him, only one sentence remained in his mind.
Hell, who can tell him why Xie Lian appeared in this place?
The car turned a corner, and the body moved forward with inertia, and was about to hit the back of the seat, when the side suddenly stretched out a hand and blocked it in front of him.
After regaining consciousness, Qi Chen sat up straight and said in a vague voice, "Thank you."
"No need." Maybe it was because he was so uncomfortable, Pei Ruoyan said, "If you are still sleepy, you can lean on me."

Gu Mingye is back?
Qi Chen looked up, and in the night, he saw the gate of his house and a white thing in the distance.He first recognized Gu Mingye's Samo called Yinyin, and then he recognized the person next to him walking back and forth in front of his house holding a leash.
