"Huh——throat hurts..." Jiang Xing heaved a long sigh of relief and pressed his face to Fu Chengfeng's back like a pug.

Fu Chengfeng stretched out a hand to pull his arm over his waist, and patted the back of his hand comfortingly.At this time, the night was thick, and the lights were still brightly lit in the fog. In the music classroom, which was often vacant on the west side of the school, two teenagers carrying musical instrument boxes came out one after another.Soon the lights in the music classroom dimmed, and Yu Baorong came out and locked the door.

Yu Baorong's song was written as expected, and the arrangement has been basically completed, and the lyrics have been adjusted in consultation with Jiang Xing.Gu Xichen's family is strictly controlled, and he can only sneak out when his father is not at home. He has participated in the practice twice in half a month.

What Yu Baorong brought was a drummer and a guitar. When they were young, they formed a band and wandered around praising freedom and dreams, but in the end they couldn’t resist the coercion of family and school. After a good meal, the team of six fell apart and scattered everywhere. Go back to each house and find each mother.

It doesn't take long for the immaturity of youth to be rejected by the self who thinks he has grown up. After the band disbanded, several of them gave up their hearts and returned to the right track. Only these two have been following Yu Baorong until now with " He joined Jiang Gu's group as an unsatisfactory music industry veteran".

Jiang Xing has a thicker skin than a city wall, and his tune has turned to the sky. In front of Yu Baorong, who can soar for 2 minutes without taking a breath, he still insists on being the lead singer, so he learns the guitar and sings at the same time. Fortunately, he has insufficient talent. Diligent to make up for the noble character, although teammates sometimes say a few words about him, but there is not much dissatisfaction.

The school music classroom opened until 08:30 in the evening, and the uncle guard came to chase people away. It happened that Yu Baorong and the others had to go back to their own school, pretending that they had studied hard until now, so the practice for the past ten days was only from afternoon to eight o'clock twenty.After waving goodbye to the three teammates, Jiang Xing and Fu Chengfeng left the campus on a small electric donkey.

Jiang Xing grabbed Fu Chengfeng's right hand and touched it, and found a mosquito bite on the back of his hand, so he scratched it for him: "My dear, you have worked hard."

"..." Jiang Xing and the others were practicing, and Fu Chengfeng was doing his homework in the classroom, and came over to wait for him after eight o'clock.The family has recently asked the aunt who is taking care of him to help cook more meals. He is thinking about finding a job during this time period. If it is closer to the school, there should be no problem in terms of time.

"How did you practice today?" Jiang Xing was frowning in the first few days. He was a half-way monk, so the gap with his teammates could be seen at a glance, and he couldn't keep up with their pace during practice, so he felt restless for a long time.

"I'm still working hard, I think it's a bit of progress..."

"Are they still talking about you?"

"...It's much better, much better, and I was the one who was holding back."

After returning home to pack up, Fu Chengfeng is about to go to work.Facing Fu Chengfeng's homework, Jiang Xing put his two fingers against his eyelids, read two lines of words and dozed off to complete the task that night.However, after lying on the bed, he was so energetic that he couldn't sleep. He got up and called Gu Xichen not long after: "Your parents haven't talked yet?"

"I'm not given the chance to talk anymore. I'm irritable. I don't know what I am in their eyes. I don't seem to be their son. I'm just a prop to satisfy their desire to control. When they divorced, my father said that That sounds good, Xiao Shen, you follow Dad, and Dad promises to give you the best life, but... hmph... It's all bullshit, the best life for me is to let me do what I like!"

"Hey, don't say that... After all, my dad would never understand me after all, that's why I never dared to tell them."

"If only I could hide the truth like you..."

"Let's forget it. Lying not only makes people feel guilty, but also makes people fearful and kills brain cells. If you can keep it secret, you can't hide it now, not to mention you can't hide it now."

"I know, I'll figure it out on my own. If my grandfather can help me teach Gu Yaowen a lesson, I'll be free... Oh, and Gu Yaowen is not at home this Sunday, so I will sneak out." Gu Yaowen is Gu Xichen's father Recently, Gu Yaowen's private car transfer brought his resentment to the peak, so he began to call him by his first name in a rebellious manner.

Jiang Xing thought for a while: "It's only Wednesday, and there are still a few more days left. I want to remind you that Zhu Yao is very scary. You didn't sing much when you came here a while ago. You don't know why his ears are so long. Yes. Let me give you an analogy, compare a song to a ten-centimeter note, his ears can be accurate to the millimeter level, and he can listen to the sound if it is slightly lengthened or shortened, or the pitch is high or low come out."

"I rely on being so powerful..."

"Hmph, it's pretty amazing, but it's too picky. He can pick out a lot of thorns for himself in three or four lines of harmony every time, but I can't feel those at all, because they are really negligible. Ah. But this person is special, and he insists on getting it right, but I don’t know how to get it right, so I have to sing blindly.

"...Are you sure it's him who is picky, not that you really can't sing?"

"...Why do you even say that, can you have some confidence in me? I have worked very hard... It is true that his ears are very sensitive, and some Yu Baorong can't hear it, so you just come here every now and then. Come here, I'm really afraid that you will be kicked out. Do you know that Apple's boss was kicked out back then, a living example..."

"...Hehe, it's not impossible, I'm their sponsor..."

Gu Xishen is a representative of the art students in Mist, and has won several awards in the city on behalf of Mist. He is one of the main contributors to eradicating the stigma of "all nerds" in Mist, so he won the Music Classroom of Mist a key.His whereabouts are uncertain these days, and the key has been kept by Jiang Xing.

After the weekly English test, Liu Haizhou came over and asked everyone to discuss the science and literature when they met with their parents in the afternoon, which was delayed for a quarter of an hour.Yu Baorong sent a message saying that he was already waiting outside the music classroom, and Jiang Xingfan didn't care about eating, so he rushed out as soon as school was over.

"Today's main task is to practice the whole song with the accompaniment, and we can't repeat every line. The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, and everyone is free. Let's go to Tiange Square for an audition first."

As soon as Yu Baorong's words fell, Jiang Xing's darling jumped up and down. The Dragon Boat Festival was only half a month away, and he was a little excited and uncertain. He was about to ask, but Yu Baorong said again: " Jiang Xing, your guitar practice is still very blunt and not smooth, if you still have difficulties, you can just hold the mic without the guitar, what do you think?"

Having been together for more than a month, Yu Baorong, who can compose, arrange, play guitar and sing well on the keyboard, has undoubtedly become the backbone of this fresh and young gang again. Zhu Yao and Fang Zhiyuan have always listened to him, and Mengxin Jiang Xing It didn't take long to admire this kind of wizard so much.

At this time, he listened, feeling a little regretful and melancholy in his heart. He practiced very hard these days, and from time to time in his dreams, he saw himself holding a guitar and singing, while Fu Chengfeng was fascinated by him in the audience, but After all, I am really not good at learning and can't hold back the team.

He grinned: "No problem, no problem."

"Well, let's set the position first. Zhiyuan and I stand on both sides, Jiang Xing stands at the front, and A Yao stands at the rear right. Jiang Xing, you'd better move forward. A Yao's bass needs to take up some space."

Jiang Xing took two steps forward: "Here?"

"Okay. That's it for now. The position is not important. The key is to sing well. Let's practice now."

Seeing Yu Baorong turn around and walk towards the keyboard, Jiang Xing was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Hey, wait a minute, where is Gu Xichen, how does he arrange it?"

Yu Baorong pursed his lips and did not speak, but Fang Zhiyuan who was on the side smiled: "He hasn't come for so long, he can't keep up with our progress. According to his current situation, he doesn't have much time in the future."

Jiang Xing's heart sank, and he rubbed his fingers involuntarily: "He told me he would come this afternoon."

Zhu Yao on the side frowned: "Then we'll talk about it when he comes over. Hurry up and practice now, and don't think about irrelevant things."

"I think, let's discuss it with him now, and ask him where he wants to stand for the arrangements for the Dragon Boat Festival and where to stand." Jiang Xing took out his mobile phone, and Yu Baorong, who had been silent all this time, said, "Then let's go first." text him."

Jiang Xing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he paused and continued: "But Jiang Xing, you should not expect too much from him. I have a general understanding of the situation in Xiao Shen's family. His parents' attitude , it is destined that he will not go far on this road—don’t rush to refute me.”

"Making music requires passion and courage. He doesn't have the passion to go on this road, he's not even as good as you, and he doesn't have the courage to give up the road he's walking and rebel against his parents. So from the very beginning, the band For him, it’s just an experience, and even he himself knows it’s an experience, so you don’t have to take it seriously.”

Even though he was still a high school student, Yu Baorong was matured by the experience of traveling alone as a teenager. What he said made sense, but Jiang Xing was a little at a loss. Is it really an experience?

seems like it.If Gu Xichen really liked it, he wouldn't wait until now, he and Yu Baorong have known each other for a long time.If he really likes it, will he still practice the violin every day? When he decided to take this path, he had no intention of studying at all.

However, Gu Xichen really has his own difficulties.

However, difficulties may not be forgiven.

But - Gu Xichen has indeed paid for this band, you can't deny the enthusiasm and hard work he has put in just because you think it is "experience".

Jiang Xing watched the three people in front of him start to get busy, and suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart. Yu Baorong, whom he had always admired, looked so indifferent at this moment.

The chill in his heart made him stand still in place.Fang Zhiyuan smiled and said something to Yu Baorong. They ignored Jiang Xing who was in a daze, but Zhu Yao, who had been picking on Jiang Xing, said something: "Jiang Xing, it's time to practice now."

The moment the music started, there was a sound of beeping outside the door, and Jiang Xing seemed to wake up suddenly: "Gu Xichen is here! I'm going to open the door—"

The person outside the door was carrying four boxes of lunch, "Are you hungry? Hurry up and eat."

There was a dazed expression on Jiang Xing's face. When the man saw him, he raised his head and glanced into the room, walked around Jiang Xing, and put the lunch box on the chair, "...Jiang Xing, he has no musical background. ,Thank you."
