Palm Idol

After a while, Jing Xiang came over with his younger sister Jing Jie in his arms.

The little girl is obviously not awake yet, and the expression on her little face is dazed. She looks a little like Jing Xiang, but she doesn't have his deep-rooted ruffianism at all, and her big eyes are half-opened. It doesn't open, it looks a bit dull and cute.

Jing Xiang introduced a few people to his younger sister, but the little girl was so frightened that she didn't say a word. She just held Jing Xiang's hand tightly and nodded timidly.

"Why are you so rude." Jing Xiang patted his younger sister on the head, "Hurry up and call Uncle Lu and Sister Xiaomei well."

"Hello, Uncle Lu, and Sister Xiaomei." The little girl hugged her head and called out aggrievedly.

"Okay, okay." Lu Yiwen was amused by her little reaction, and seeing that the little girl was really not used to so many people, he told Jing Xiang that his group would go back first, and discuss other matters later.

Jingxiang sent them all the way to the parking lot, and said to Lu Yiwen before he got into the car: "Brother Lu, Xiaojie's surgery is only three weeks away. Actually, I always wanted to take her to see it." It's my first time on stage."

Lu Yiwen sighed: "You should have said these things earlier."

If I had said it earlier, maybe there was still time for Undeux's resurrection live.

"I didn't think about it that much at the time." As if trying to hide his emotions, Jing Xiang looked away, "It was agreed to wait until Xiaojie was 5 years old before surgery, who would have known that my mother would suddenly become so crazy... ..."

Lu Yiwen asked cautiously, "Where's your father?"

Jing Xiang replied simply: "I don't have a father. My mother is actually married for the second time now, and Xiaojie and my younger brother are not related to me by blood."

Lu Yiwen recalled the phone call he overheard yesterday, and he could more or less imagine how difficult his situation at home was, and said broadly: "If you really have any financial difficulties, even if it's not for the company, it's for me personally. You can mention it."

Jingxiang laughed when he heard this: "Brother, what are you thinking? Although our family's financial conditions are average, we are not short of money. Besides, it is not that difficult to keep up with medical insurance and so on. I play guitar by myself. You can afford anything."

Lu Yiwen looked at him and smiled, but couldn't laugh himself: "You really don't plan to go back to the company?"

"Forget it now." Jing Xiang's voice was very soft, "I really don't know how to calm myself down, and I can't continue to stay in the dormitory and practice like a house."

Lu Yiwen understood what he meant. Money matters are easy to solve, but emotional matters are not. Now that Xiao Jie's surgery is imminent, Jing Xiang's heart may not be able to settle down completely.

For a while, he didn't know what to say to comfort Jing Xiang, so he patted him on the shoulder heavily, and then drove everyone back.

That night, after Lu Yiwen returned to the game space, he hurried to see if his time in the main story had been consumed too much, but to his surprise, although the time spent in the plot was a little longer these few times, it did not shorten his lifespan.

Speaking of which, not only is the duration of the main story line unaffected, but also more and more details of life that Lu Yiwen can feel and experience recently. At the beginning, he couldn't even hear Jian She singing, but now he can't even hear it while taking a bath. The slight sound of running water could be heard clearly.

why?

Lu Yiwen thought about it carefully, and the biggest change in the plot recently... seems to be the fact that he moved into the dormitory.

Especially after he and Jian She lived in the same room.

Could it be that more contact with the characters in the plot will lengthen the time of the plot?

At this moment, the mailbox sent him the reward of the last whack-a-mole game. Lu Yiwen opened it and saw that it was a Jingxiang SR.

This was the first time Lu Yiwen got Jingxiang's card, and he thought it was very fresh, so he put him in myband immediately.

Jingxiang’s Q version of the villain has inherited the same personality traits as himself, and he is also very noisy when he is in his home. He will bicker with Xu Lan for a while, and pester Jian She for a while, and he always likes to imitate during rehearsals. Other people's typhoon was deliberately imitated in an exaggerated and funny way, which made myband come alive.

But thanks to Jingxiang, Lu Yiwen felt that the game space tonight was much more lively than ever before.

[Ding! "Jingxiang · Afternoon Time" has exceeded level 70, and the storyline of this card can be opened. Do you want to open it? ]

Lu Yiwen clicked "Yes".

A huge screen quickly unfolded in front of him, like a movie slowly opening, not a Q version but a normal and proportional figure of Jing Xiang was gradually reflected on the screen.

Jing Xiang sat cross-legged on the floor of the basement holding a fiery red guitar, without plugging it in.

A guitar without speakers and effectors is like a high-pitched actor with a celestial voice being choked, and can only make a muffled "crack" sound, but Jing Xiang doesn't seem to think there is anything wrong with this sound , still enthusiastically playing and singing with a smile on his face, beside him was Jing Jie who happily clapped her hands to help him beat the beat.

Judging from the luxuriant growth of the ivy outside the window, it seems to be summer at this time. The sunlight half blocked by the window eaves sprinkles on Jingxiang and his sister along the edge of the ivy, setting off the smiling faces of the two humming an out-of-tuned tune. more dazzling.

"Why, why, mother doesn't love me"

"Oh why, why, she's so cold to me"

"It's okay, it's okay, I don't care"

"Grief is destined to pass with time"

"The shackles of bondage will one day be untied"

"Why, why, mother doesn't love me"

"Oh why, why, she never smiles"

"It's okay, it's okay, I don't care"

"If you still yearn for happiness in your heart"

"The old page will be turned one day"

"Life is much better than what you see now"

"How willing to give up so easily"

……

The plot of the card face ended abruptly here, and Lu Yiwen was stunned, forgetting his words for a while.

The song was obviously created by Jing Xiang, the tune was monotonous, and the lyrics were sung in a mess. However, the bright smiling faces of Jing Xiang and his younger sister Jing Jie were deeply imprinted in Lu Yiwen's heart like a brand.

It can be imagined from this lyrics that Xiaojie once pestered her brother to ask the same question countless times. This doubt haunted her young and innocent heart all the year round, and gradually became a huge shadow that devoured her heart.

As for Jingxiang, he probably really didn't know how to solve this difficult problem, so he simply made up such a song, using this optimistic and bitter way to fight back against the injustice he received.

Since the season is summer, it must not be what happened this year.

Looking at the gradually disappearing screen, Lu Yiwen finally felt strongly for the first time that in addition to the main plot, the paper man in the game also had a life that he had never set foot in or knew.

At that moment, the faces of every paper man seemed to gradually come alive in his mind.

Lu Yiwen suddenly wanted to do something for Jingxiang like this.He stood up and went to the warehouse to count his resources and gold coins.

After careful allocation and calculation, he set aside part of it, put it in his carry-on bag, and prepared to put it into the main line.

·

After returning from Jingxiang's house, even though everyone didn't say anything and tacitly didn't mention him, the atmosphere in the dormitory changed obviously.

Without the noisy Jing Xiang, even the dinner table where everyone gathers every day is much quieter.

Lu Yiwen looked at Xu Lan who was swiping his phone while eating, and asked him casually, "Has Jingxiang posted anything in Moments recently? Have you talked to him?"

"Hmm..." Xu Lan flicked the phone screen and said, "There is nothing. He hasn't sent Moments since he went back that day, and he hasn't replied to my WeChat. I don't know what's going on now."

Lu Yiwen tentatively said: "Since this is the case, then I will say it directly. If Jing Xiang does not return to the company, he may have to find a guitarist again. What do you think?"

"It doesn't matter." Jian She's reaction was still cold, "I think it's fine without a guitarist."

"How can we do without a guitarist? I originally planned to have your team equipped with two guitars." Lu Yiwen said, "Undeux also had a melody guitarist before, but after leaving, I don't know why I can't find a second one. It fits."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Zhiyuan's spoon hit the bowl somehow, making a heavy "boom".

Lu Yiwen heard this voice and asked him, "Xiaobai, what do you think?"

Because Bai Zhiyuan still has to take care of his university studies, he doesn't come to the dormitory often. He only comes to rehearse regularly when there is no class.What happened at Jingxiang’s house was only heard by Lu Yiwen when he came here today, and he didn’t have any real feelings about it. He was suddenly called by Lu Yiwen and didn’t know what to say, and he was thinking about other things in his heart, so he had to answer casually. : "I... I can do whatever I want, you can call him back, you can change someone, it's all up to you."

Seeing that asking here is like not asking, Lu Yiwen turned his gaze to Xu Lan again: "Where is Xu Lan?"

"I think Jingxiang is quite reliable..." Xu Lan bit her chopsticks and said, "It would be great if I could call him back, although I haven't been with him for a few days, but I'm getting used to it. "

Lu Yiwen heard something funny: "Then if—I mean, if, in order to get Jing Xiang back and speed up the progress of your debut, do you think it is acceptable?"

Bai Zhiyuan still answered ambiguously: "I can do it, I can do it."

Xu Lan began to hesitate: "How fast is speeding up?"

Lu Yiwen didn't think about it: "Next week, it happens that there is a livehouse called DIVISON in Dongcheng District that is going to hold a music festival, and it can accommodate 2000 people. The boss told me last year that he wanted our company to send someone to participate."

"Next week!?" Xu Lan dropped the chopsticks from her mouth, "Then... I, I have to practice the piano for 22 hours a day again?"

"...I don't agree." Jian She pushed Wan Yi to stand up and said, "Since it is Jing Xiang who wants to come on stage earlier, he should worry about it. Why do you have to speak for him here?"

He looked at Lu Yiwen and said in a muffled voice, "Brother, you really don't need to accommodate him like this."
