Xiao Meijun has taught Shen Zhexuan and Shen Qingye for two generations. He is over 70 years old. Although he was specially hired as a piano teacher in a middle school after his old age and kept a low profile, his resume is quite beautiful and his talent is excellent. He was a musician trained abroad at public expense in his time. There are only a few in the country.It was just that after returning to China, he encountered political incidents and was forced to go to the countryside. He was frail and straight-tempered.

He was rehabilitated in the later stage, but he had already missed the most critical years in his life. His physical strength and creative ability began to decline, and he was no longer able to make further progress in the piano.Fortunately, he did not complain about himself. After a short period of depression, he turned to education and brought out batch after batch of students.

It is said that the college entrance examination is a single-plank bridge for thousands of troops to cross, but at least if you work hard, there will be a result more or less.And the piano is the real way to move forward in the dark. No matter how much hard work and sweat you put in, no talent is no talent. The ceiling is there when you are born, and many people often need to work hard to realize this. Those who can persevere until they stand on the stage and take it as a career are not only rare, but also the darlings favored by God.

Therefore, although there are not many students who insist on taking this path, those few are enough for him to be proud of.After Shen Qingye went abroad, he also kept in touch with this mentor from time to time.

And Wu Lanyu's family used to be neighbors with Xiao Meijun. Wu Lanyu's mother and Xiao Meijun were teachers in the same middle school. Wu Lanyu learned piano from him since he was a child, and he has a good relationship with him.The Wu family later developed and moved, and the two families lost contact, and they have not been in touch.Wu Lanyu's visit this time was purely because her mother and Xiao Meijun met in the hospital. Knowing that he passed his birthday today, Wu's mother was inconvenient, so she asked Wu Lanyu to visit her old friend for her.

Wu Lanyu walked through the hall, hugging Xi Wen's arm affectionately, "Brother Xi Wen, why did you come here? I said why you are in such a hurry to eat at noon. It turns out that you have an appointment at night." Looking at Shen Qingye at the side, Some asked curiously, "Who is this? Is this your friend? Why haven't I seen it?"

Xi Wen withdrew his hand in embarrassment, he turned to look at Shen Qingye, saw him watching quietly, his face was very calm, but Xi Wen was a little unhappy, "It's a friend, I haven't introduced you before, His name is Shen Qingye."

Wu Lanyu looked at Shen Qingye for a while, then suddenly said, "Have we met before?"

Shen Qingye smiled at her, "I used to learn piano with Teacher Xiao."

Xiao Meijun thought for a while, "Ah, I remembered, the two of you used to be on weekends, one morning and one afternoon, maybe you met twice. But you were too young at that time, how could you have any impression?"

Wu Lanyu said to Xiao Meijun, "It must be the teacher. You used to tell me how smart and motivated other children are, and you want me to learn more from them, so that I feel familiar with everyone I see."

Xiao Meijun laughed, "That's right. Among the students I was leading at the time, Qingye was the smartest and hardworking. You were the most mischievous. You couldn't sit on the stool for an hour."

Wu Lanyu giggled and made a grimace, "But I have a good memory, and I can play any melody after listening to it once. I thought I had talent, but it turns out that I am still a wild way."

"Talent and hard work are always inseparable." Xiao Meijun looked at her tenderly, with a kind face on her face, as if caught in old memories, "I remember when Lan Yu was practicing piano here, Qingye arrived early, every Every time I lie on the window to watch, my face is pasted on the window glass, leaving a face mark every time, the little face is red from the cold, not to mention how cute. At that time, I want to introduce you two to each other. When I was learning the piano, there was a Companion, you can still promote each other by moving one by one. It's a pity that Lan Yu moved too fast and didn't find a suitable opportunity. Now we finally met by accident, which can be regarded as fate."

Xi Wen's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered that Shen Qingye had mentioned before that he liked a girl he knew when he was learning piano.

It can't be such a coincidence, can we meet again after more than ten years?

He went to look at Shen Qingye again, and he really saw that he was staring at Wu Lanyu intently, with a faint smile on his lips unconsciously, his eyes were soft and clear, completely different from the tension and confrontation when he was facing himself.

His heart was sour, and he suddenly sullenly pulled Wu Lanyu's hand.

Wu Lanyu looked at him in surprise, and then lowered her head after a while, showing a bit of a little daughter's shyness. This was the first time Xi Wen took the initiative to get close to her.They used to have a good relationship, and the two of them played and played around, but ever since Feng and Wu's parents repeatedly knocked on their marriage on various occasions, Xi Wen gradually began to alienate her.Wu Lanyu just felt that Xi Wen was not paying attention, so she stayed with him all the time, waiting for him to look around when he was willing.

Xiao Meijun saw that the two of them were holding hands. The old man was so old that he knew at a glance that the relationship was not normal. He stopped talking and then asked Wu Lanyu with a smile, "Lanyu, you haven't introduced yourself to me yet. relationship."

Wu Lanyu let out an ah, and her face turned even redder, "Mr. Xiao, stop making trouble."

But the man turned his head to look at Xi Wen, as if looking forward to it.

Xi Wen pursed his lips, not knowing how to speak.

Shen Qingye glanced at the hands they were holding, and then moved away. He has a good memory, and he must also remember that the person who danced the opening dance with Xi Wen at the reception was also Wu Lanyu. He heard a lot of discussions at that time, They all praise the talents and beauty, and the beauty of men and women.

"Isn't it already engaged?" Shen Qingye leaned against the wall, folded his arms around his chest, raised his brows lightly, and helped them speak out.

Xi Wen stared at him, then nodded, and smiled casually at Xiao Meijun, "Yes, it was ordered by my parents."

He only talked about his parents, but he didn't say what he thought.Still left room.

But Wu Lanyu didn't think so much.

Finally hearing him admit it personally, Wu Lanyu couldn't hide her joy, she clenched Xi Wen's hand tightly, her body was close to him, and she smiled brightly.She was so happy, she helped everyone unpack the cake, light the candles, and turned off the lights together to make a wish. Her heart was still pounding, she closed her eyes, and whispered that she could spend a long time with the person she liked.

The old man lived alone and went to bed early, everyone shared a small piece of cake, Shen Qingye helped put the rest of the cake in the refrigerator, and unpacked the gift he bought - a neck massager, and taught Xiao Meijun how to use it , and they bid farewell together.

Xiao Meijun sent them to the door and watched them go downstairs.

The corridor light was broken, and several people took out their mobile phones to light it up.

When they came up, Xi Wen followed Shen Qingye, but when they left, it was Wu Lanyu who followed Xi Wen, and Shen Qingye walked behind alone.

When they got to the bottom of the building, Xi Wen's car was still at the restaurant. Wu Lanyu drove the car alone, took them for a ride, and sent them to the restaurant to pick up the car. Before leaving, Wu Lanyu kissed Xi Wen's cheek. He took a sip, and then waved goodbye to them with a particularly bright heart.

Shen Qingye walked to the side of the street alone to take a taxi, Xi Wen felt that he was losing his temper again, so he went to hold his hand, but as soon as he touched him, Shen Qingye reacted violently and threw him away as if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake.

Xi Wen felt that his self-esteem had been stabbed, and his face instantly turned ugly, "What are you doing?"

Shen Qingye clenched his hands, "I'll take a taxi back by myself."

Xi Wen stared at him, "No."

This street is relatively lively, with cars coming and going on the road.Shen Qingye ignored him, waved over a taxi, and sat in it.Xi Wen held the door of the car to prevent him from leaving, with a firm look in his eyes, "Come out."

Shen Qingye looked ahead, "I'll just go back by myself."

"I'll say it again, no." Xi Wen stared at him firmly, his gaze was like a steel nail being driven into him, and his voice was ruthless.

The driver thought the two of them were chattering, "Will you go or not? I was fined for parking on this road."

Shen Qingye showed no signs of compromise, Xi Wen gritted his teeth, bent over and sat in.

The atmosphere in the small space was stagnant.

Xi Wen's face was sullen, his fists were clenched and stretched out, and he pressed heavily on the cold leather of the back seat of the taxi.

He said patiently, "Why are you doing this again? Did I make you unhappy?"

Shen Qingye raised his hand to press Yashangen, "What are you going to do when I go home?"

"I told you I'll take you back."

"I also said no."

"Why did Wu Lanyu want to send you off just now, but you didn't refuse, and you were so unhappy when I sent you off."

"I don't like whoever sends me off. Am I unable to take care of myself? I have to be watched wherever I go?"

Xi Wen bit his lower lip tightly, and looked at Shen Qingye angrily, "Don't you want to ask about Wu Lanyu?"

"I have no position to ask about your affairs."

Xi Wen lifted his mouth and sneered sarcastically, "I see that you are very curious. You are very excited to reunite with your old friend after a long absence, right? Didn't you even exchange contact information in private?"

Shen Qingye turned to look at him, and said word by word, "Lan Yu is your fiancee."

Xi Wen sneered, "You know that too." He added, "Is she the girl you mentioned to me before?"

Shen Qingye didn't speak, it seemed to Xi Wen that he acquiesced because of a guilty conscience.

Xi Wen became angry, "Are you serious?" He lowered his voice and growled, "Do you like Wu Lanyu? Why do you like her? Do you have a position to like her?"

Xi Wen looked straight at him, it was very bright outside, but it was very dark inside the carriage, only a little light could be seen flickering in Shen Qingye's eyes.

Xi Wen suddenly leaned over, grabbed his collar and pulled him down suddenly, "Have you forgotten? You are mine, and you sold yourself to me. When will you realize this fact?" He He spoke urgently and quickly, growling hoarsely, spraying hot breath on his cheeks.

The shoulders of the two collided hard, their faces were very close, Xi Wen turned his head sideways, and in this position, he bit his lower lip hard, biting his teeth hard until his lip was bleeding.

The fishy smell is overflowing, and the malice is vented from it.

Sudden intrusion and accusation-like crusade.

Pain and gore stimulated the human senses.

Shen Qingye suddenly raised his hand to pinch his neck and pushed him back, he exerted force little by little, veins popped out on the back of his hand, his expression was stern, as if he really brought the cruelty of hurting both sides, his fragile neck was controlled by his palm.

Xi Wen's eyes were flushed with blood, his eyeballs were swollen, his mouth was open, and he let out a hissing broken breath. His survival instinct made him strangle Shen Qingye's arm, his nails scratched the surface of the skin, leaving bloodstains.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at Shen Qingye, but he couldn't see anything clearly, his vision was blurred.

The driver looked at the two entangled in the back seat through the rearview mirror, and was so frightened that he drove the car at a high speed, drifting all the way through the corner.

The car braked suddenly, and the people in the back seat jumped forward.

The car lights on the side swept in, it was blindingly white, Shen Qingye seemed to have just woken up at this moment, closed his eyes for a moment, and then abruptly withdrew his hand.

The deadlock was released, and the driver breathed a sigh of relief, apparently thankful that no murder had occurred in his car.

The two got out of the car.

Xi Wen followed behind Shen Qingye, watching him walk into the house.

The door slammed shut in front of him, the street lights in the alley were broken, and the path was pitch-black, except for the dim lights from the windows of the residential buildings on both sides.

Xi Wen took a deep breath, the blood in his eyes dissipated a little, he pressed his hands on his neck and turned around, the phantom pain of being choked still remained in the neck.He turned around and walked down the steps slowly, when a fluffy and soft thing suddenly touched his feet, Xi Wen squatted down and groped forward with his hands.The chubby orange cat meowed and stuck to his palm. The cat was so fat that one hand couldn't grasp its collar.

He remembered that Shen Qingye said that this cat was picked up by him on the side of the road. When he first picked it up, it was thin and small, its eyes were covered with cloudy eyes, it was covered in mangy skin, and its hair was completely torn. It was obviously suffering from a skin disease. Since it was picked up by the side of the road, let's call it the road. Shen Qingye barked casually, and the cat would really carefully put its head under his palm and rub it against it.It is so obedient, Shen Qingye didn't want to keep a cat at first, their house is not the kind of place suitable for pets to live in, but the kitten followed him all the way back, he was reluctant to drive it out, it just lived here so naturally down.

Slowly the skin disease healed, the fur grew back, and the eyes could see again. Maybe it was because I was too hungry when I was a child, and I didn’t know how to restrain myself when I grew up. I wanted to eat everything and grab everything. The more it is raised, the fatter it becomes, and the fatter it becomes, the lazier it is. The greatest joy is lying on the climbing frame in the small yard and basking in the sun. The only food that can make it move and act cute with its owner.

This cat remembers to eat but not to beat. It is often teased by the children in the alley. If it is provoked, it will scratch your paws. Next time you feed it two ham sausages, it will lie down and masturbate with a good temper. .Maybe he wanted to grab a supper now, and he didn't care about Xi Wen's beard that he had pulled at it before, so he touched it limply.

Xi Wen imitated Shen Qingye's gesture, and touched the cat's soft ears clockwise. He didn't have anything to eat, so he picked up the cat and walked all the way to the 24-hour convenience store outside the alley, wanting to buy something for it.As a result, as soon as he walked out of the alley, he could see some light, and the cat seemed to be scared. It struggled desperately in his arms, and the cat jumped out of his arms and disappeared in a moment. .

Xi Wen's arms were empty, he clasped his palms, then put them down and stuck them to the seam of his trousers.

He obviously has a good heart for it, but he can't hold it tightly, and it will still run away if he is distracted.What's the use of kindness? He still doesn't know what's the use of people's hearts.
