stepping into the night

The day of the school's top ten was just a Saturday, and the weather was exceptionally sunny, and the summer sun was shining on people, who were a little hot.

The audition was held in the square next to the milk tea shop. The organizer had contacted people in advance to set up a simple stage.Each contestant has 1 minute to sing, but how long to sing on the audition stage depends on when the judges call to stop. Indifferently: "Okay, let's finish singing here, thank you."

There are also more and more onlookers, most of them are watching the excitement.

However, in order to encourage the enthusiasm of the students to participate in the activities and protect the privacy and confidence of the contestants, each contestant will wear a golden mask handed by the logistics staff when they sing on stage to relieve the pressure of being surrounded by crowds.

Thinking that Lin Jiang was going to participate in the audition, Ruan Chu hurriedly put on his schoolbag and rushed to the small square after finishing the work in the archives room. On the way, he ran into roommates who had heard the news and watched the excitement.

At this time, it was almost the end. There were only a few contestants who hadn't appeared on stage yet, and most of the spectators had dispersed. Ruan Chu glanced at the contestant candidate area, but did not find Lin Jiang.He thought for a moment, then turned and walked to the milk tea shop, and sure enough, he saw Lin Jiang who was washing the milk tea cups in a leisurely manner at the bar.

It's already the usual lunch break time, and there aren't many people ordering at the milk tea shop. Ruan Chu looked around, then gently lay down on the bar near Lin Jiang, and whispered to Lin Jiang: "Senior."

"Here we come." Hearing the sound, Lin Jiang turned and looked at him. After washing her hands, she smiled and pushed a cup of fruit tea that he made in advance under the bar to Ruan Chu's hand.

"Have you finished the audition?" Ruan Chu obediently took the cup of fruit tea, staring at Lin Jiang with clear eyes.

"Not yet," Lin Jiang took off the apron on her body, and while no one was paying attention to them, she pinched the tip of Ruan Chu's nose affectionately, "Is it over?"

"When I went to see it just now, there were still a few people left." Ruan Chu said truthfully.

"Then let's go, I was the last one to fill out the registration form." Lin Jiang turned her head and said hello to the colleague next to her, pushed open the door of the bar and walked out, lightly tugged on Ruan Chu's wrist, and led him Go in the direction of the small square outside.

Holding the fruit tea in his hand, Ruan Chu blinked, followed Lin Jiang out, and realized after a while that Lin Jiang was waiting for him on purpose, which made Ruan Chu feel lucky—fortunately, the work assigned in the office today was not good. It's a good thing that he rushed over at the first time, and he didn't miss it.

"I won't miss it," Lin Jiang turned around and waited for him to follow her side by side before walking towards the small square. "If you don't come, I won't participate."

"That's a pity," Ruan Chu thought for a while, "You can get a lot of extra points for literature and art by participating in the school's top ten. If you can enter the finals, the accumulated points along the way can almost get all the points for literature and art. .”

He obviously remembered Lin Jiang's words, and went back to carefully write down the information related to the comprehensive test in the student handbook.

"Art points can be obtained elsewhere," Lin Jiang looked sideways at him, "but this song is just for you."

Ruan Chu pursed the corners of her raised lips and remained silent, and the tips of her ears covered by her black hair were quietly stained red with embarrassment.

When Lin Jiang came to the stage, several student cadres in the judges' seat obviously had no patience to continue listening, and there were very few students onlookers, which seemed particularly empty.But this is not what Lin Jiang cares about.

Because there were not many onlookers, Lin Jiang did not wear the mask given by the support staff, and took the stage with a microphone.

He politely bowed slightly to the audience who were still present, and when he raised his eyes again, his eyes with a soft smile fell on Ruan Chu.

The audition is a cappella, and the equipment provided by the school is not professional, which is quite a test of the contestants' own skills and the melodiousness of their voices.

Lin Jiang and Ruan Chu looked at each other, their deep and gentle voice slowly came out——

"I want you by my side"

"I want to watch you make up"

"The wind blows this night"

"Blowing itchy"

"My Beau"

……

This song originally had male and female versions of the lyrics, but Lin Jiang quietly mixed the lyrics of the two songs together, but his gentle voice and poured emotions, as if he was whispering to his lover, made the audience ignore his changed lyrics. Even people passing by from time to time couldn't help but stop and look at the stage to see who was singing.

Ruan Chu looked at him, his heart started beating non-stop from the moment Lin Jiang stood on the stage, and the smiling "my lover" seemed to be magnified several times for no reason , fell irresistibly on the lake of his heart, causing ripples that could not be calmed down for a long time.

Lin Jiang's timing was so accurate that the judges even forgot to stop him, so he stopped quietly in the soft singing, and then withdrew his eyes that had been intertwined with Ruan Chu all along, and seemed to have a lot more around him. The onlookers bowed slightly, turned around and stepped off the stage neatly.

The result was not announced on the spot, and the judges did not interrupt him halfway through singing. Everyone present knew that as long as Lin Jiang himself did not give up the competition, he would definitely see him in the rematch.

But Lin Jiang didn't think so much, went to the sign-in counter according to the procedure, signed out, and then walked towards Ruan Chu's direction, and didn't notice a girl from the student union who was guarding the sign-in counter with a blushing face and stretched out her mobile phone to add him Wechat was ignored by him without squinting.

"Does it sound good?" Lin Jiang walked to Ruan Chu's side, seeing his red ears and looking at her beautiful eyes full of admiration, she felt itchy for a while, resisting the urge to kiss someone on the spot, and only restrained She raised her hand and pinched the back of his neck, and asked him how he felt with a smile.

"Sounds good!" Ruan Chu nodded vigorously, his lips that had just drank the fruit tea turned a light red and looked very soft.

Lin Jiang secretly took a deep breath, and led the people back to the inner room where the curtains were lowered in the milk tea shop.

No one came to buy milk tea now, and another colleague was leaning against the side of the bar and playing with his mobile phone bored, not paying attention to the two of them.

The lights were not turned on in the room, but through the light from outside the curtain, Ruan Chu could barely see clearly. As soon as Ruan Chu walked in behind Lin Jiang, he felt his waist tighten——Lin Jiang held his waist against the wall. side.

"Do you know the title of the song I just sang?" Lin Jiang lowered her head slightly, touching his forehead.

"Yeah," that's an old song that's familiar to everyone, most people have heard it, and Ruan Chu is no exception.He thought for a while, and answered Lin Jiang's question seriously, ""I Want You""

"Okay." Lin Jiang responded in a low voice.

Before Ruan Chu realized what he was responding to, he felt a piece of softness covering his lips, and then skillfully occupied his lips with a gentle and irresistible offensive.

Only then did he understand what he had just said, and he was ashamed and ashamed, but he could only surrender to Lin Jiang.

Counting carefully, this is the number of times the two of them have kissed since they established their relationship.

Young people in the period of passionate love seem to be keen to have skin-to-skin contact with each other every day, and the feeling of being so close to each other makes them a little addicted.

Ruan Chu was only ashamed for a moment, then opened his lips obediently, accepting Lin Jiang's request completely.Only when he was a little out of breath, he turned his head slightly to take a quick breath, and then fell into the intimacy that both of them still wanted.

Thanks to Lin Jiang's indifference and alienation in the past, when it was his turn to rest in the room, his colleagues at the bar outside would not go in and try to make jokes with him. This small room is the most suitable for two people. place of intimacy.

Lin Jiang sat next to Ruan Chu, holding his waist and talking to him in a low voice.

Both of them have their own work to do in the afternoon, so they can only race against time to have dinner together during the lunch break.

Two days later, the results of the preliminaries of the top ten on campus were announced, and Lin Jiang was indeed shortlisted.At the same time, what became popular on the school forum was a short video of Lin Jiang singing on stage that was recorded by someone unknown at the time.

He is handsome and has a nice voice. Although he looks cold, he can really arouse the admiration of girls. It doesn't take much inquiry to know that the handsome guy who sang very nicely on the Top Ten works part-time at the school milk tea shop. There are also many more people going to the milk tea shop.

The colleagues who work in the milk tea shop can feel it, but Ruan Chu can feel it even more.

The off-duty time that could have allowed the two of them to sneak in for a moment of intimacy was occupied by the orders of the girls who came here because of their fame, but this was Lin Jiang's work, and he could not affect Lin Jiang's work because of his selfishness, but he also I don't want to see Lin Jiang surrounded by girls with bright smiles.

Ruan Chu would still race against time to come over during his rest time, but instead of lying on the bar closest to Lin Jiang as before, he just sat quietly at a table next to the wall, taking advantage of his rare rest time to have a look Lin Jiang.He felt a little sour in his heart, but he could only swallow silently.

——He doesn't even have the qualifications to declare sovereignty openly.

The public relationship between two boys will be interviewed by the counselor.

Lin Jiang was naturally keenly aware that since she participated in the preliminaries of the top ten on campus, the business in the store has become more prosperous, and she even spends less time with her boyfriend, which made Lin Jiang very puzzled .But at the same time, he could clearly feel that when his shy and quiet Ruan Ruan came to him, he silently distanced himself, which made him angry and funny.

But what can be done?

It's not just about coaxing the sulking little boyfriend back.

"Senior Lin," the girl plucked up the courage to stop Lin Jiang when she took the milk tea, and said quickly and authentically when he looked over asking, "I'm from the school's vocal music club, you sing very well, and it's worth letting more people listen to it Arrived... do you intend to join us?"

"Thank you, no." Lin Jiang quickly refused, looking past the girl to Ruan Chu who was sitting in the corner.

"You should think about it again," the girl bit her lip, and handed over a note with her WeChat ID written on it, "We can chat again, your voice is so beautiful, it would be a pity not to sing more. "

"No need." Lin Jiang shook her head lightly, and when Ruan Chu met her gaze, she pursed her lips and lowered her head. After thinking about it, she politely added something to the girl.

"It's not a pity. It's fine to sing it to the person I like. If I sing it to someone else, he will be sad."

"I can't bear to make him sad."
