Chapter 174 Let the Heavy Rain Fall

Even though it’s the same journey, the return trip is always faster than the outbound trip.

Even though we were walking very slowly, we still didn't say a few words before it was time to say goodbye.

Li Xinyuan waved to Li Yan who was about to go upstairs across the street, ending today's "relaxing" trip.

As soon as she got home, Li Yan sent the video and the complete version of the song to Li Xinyuan.

Afterwards he continued with his online writing career. He wanted to get the online writing business basically stable during this winter vacation.

When Chen Fengling came back to cook at noon, Li Yan went over to help.

And the system is required to separate "cooking skills" into a fourth-level skill, and not merge it with life skills.

Being a chef is also one of his interests, so unlike some annoying little skills, "cooking skills" is a skill that Li Yan is willing to actively improve.

It’s a pity that the life skills are just a collection. If they could be radiated, Li Yan could be a family chef now.

However, the currently activated "cooking skills" is only 27 points. It has been a long time since the skill has been below the average. This is the result of Li Yan's slight study during the summer vacation.

There is no need to rush, you can only start from the most basic.

The time spent chatting with parents passed quickly, and it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time for Li Yan to take a nap.

Going back and forth with Li Xinyuan this morning was more tiring than writing a 20,000-word novel.

When I woke up, I saw a flashing fried egg avatar on QQ - the golden egg man, that is, Lin Zhiyuan.

"How's it going? Did Li Xinyuan confess to you?"

"Just have a normal chat. Don't think too much. You didn't dare to reply to my message in the morning, but you are very active in gossiping. Didn't you say you wanted to apply to New Taipei Middle School?"

"Stop scolding me, I'm going to study now."

The poached egg turned black and white.

But now that I mention it... Li Xinyuan's avatar is still gray and the file has not been received yet.

She was entertaining her parents' friends in the living room, absent-mindedly.

Maybe it’s a good thing. I heard from Lin Zhiyuan that there were a lot of beautiful girls in that performance, so let’s wait a little longer.

Only after finishing dinner and taking a shower did Li Xinyuan wrap herself tightly in the quilt and turn on the audio with headphones.

It's a song I haven't heard before.

It sounds very nice. It turns out that Li Yan is such a good singer. The other boy’s voice is also good.

And there was no female voice. Li Xinyuan felt relieved, and the quilt that had wrapped her tightly around him finally loosened a little.

She clicked on the video.

The admiring boy stood in the center of the stage, but the girl sitting next to him in front of the guzheng was indeed pretty.

It turns out that the guzheng accompaniment is a girl... and she seems very good.

Li Xinyuan pressed pause and pulled the progress bar to synchronize the audio and video as much as possible.

Li Xinyuan's eyes lit up when Li Yan played the flute.

Because of the perspective, the girl in blue dress who appeared from the back was not noticed by her at this time.

The moment she noticed it her face changed.

Especially the moment when Wei Yunzhi floated past Li Yan.

Complex and wonderful emotions.

Seeing Li Yan suddenly look back, Li Xinyuan pressed the space bar and the video stopped at that frame.

She looked at the boy, and the boy looked at the other girl.

The quilt was wrapped tightly again.

Li Yan received a message from Li Xinyuan: The cultural performance was amazing!
Li Yan smiled and quickly explained everything about the show from conception to arrangement to rehearsal to choreography at the speed of a tentacle monster.

I had only written half of it when Li Xinyuan asked:
There are two girls on the stage. Is one of them your girlfriend?

So straightforward? Li Yan frowned, cut off the previous long paragraph, and replied:

Too busy studying to fall in love.

Now Li is already the top student in Linjiang Junior High School. He is fully devoted to the creation of a great cause. It is good to have a few pleasing girls as friends. It is fun to accompany this group of adolescent boys and girls to have some fun, but he needs to think seriously about this matter...

Love? Even dogs don’t talk about it.

Given his conditions, there will always be a time when they can go both ways.

If you really meet a girl who touches your heart, the worst that can happen is that you can just bark. Although a real man cannot lick her, he can bend and stretch.

Li Xinyuan didn't reply for a long time because she was upset. She was happy that he didn't have a girlfriend, but sad that he had no interest in love.

what is this?
Li Xinyuan still sent a message: Are they your classmates?

Why do we keep asking?
Li Yan replied: The person playing the guzheng is the one sitting in front of me, and the one dancing is a senior from another school. I met her when I went to a bookstore to buy books. To talk about this, I have to tell you about this show.

Then Li Yan pasted the cut content back and went over the whole process carefully.

"So, I wanted to ask her if she could help, and I didn't expect her to agree right away. We didn't even have a formal practice together, but the final result was amazing."

What…what is all this? Li Xinyuan couldn’t understand what was this: composition and arrangement, circular breathing, accompaniment recording, stage direction, stage design…

I don't understand. I just want to know if your last look back was a designed content.

When Li Xinyuan realized that she had already sent this sentence, her hands were shaking.

Obviously... obviously I was the one who knew him first.

After several seconds, Li Yan replied: It was designed.

Although she didn't say anything, Li Xinyuan seemed to feel Li Yan's emotions coming from the other end of the network cable and rushed out of the screen.

A very faint, shallow disappointment.

So she didn't say anything else, just chatted for a few minutes and chose to log off.

Only then did she realize that this program was so wonderful that it was almost like a professional evening show, and it was almost as if it was organized by Li Yan alone.

He did it all and was proud of it.

That's why he was so impressed by the dancing girl. After all, he only gave the other girl eight words.

Very powerful, but Li Xinyuan didn’t know how powerful he was.

For some unknown reason, Li Xinyuan logged into the web page and searched for "Linjiang Literature and Art Weekly".

"The province's top literary magazine..."

She searched for "New Taipei First High School Li Yan" again, and what came out was naturally a report from the New Taipei Daily, a full-page column.

The chairman of the Provincial Art Association, the director of the New Taipei City Education Bureau, the principal of New Taipei First High School... Li Yan stood in front of them, chatting with a smile.

There was also an announcement on the official website of New Taipei First High School, the top ten students in the first-year junior high school final exam.

The first place was Li Yan, with a total score of 759, with full marks in all subjects except Chinese.

She was silent for a long time before closing the webpage.

The quilt is very warm, so you should hide in it.

What’s the point of knowing each other early, and what’s the point of being the only study committee member.

She had said it in the Qingsong Corridor more than half a year ago, "You will eventually leave Rin City."

She said that to herself.

The girl didn’t understand what it meant to be from different worlds, just like she didn’t understand why she behaved so...humble when facing Li Yan in the morning.

Trying hard to find your own sense of existence in front of Li Yan.

Li Yan is not a fool. At this point, saying that Li Xinyuan doesn't like him is just an attempt to cover up the truth.

From the most realistic point of view, they are in the first grade of junior high school, so there is no point in talking and they should study hard; from a relatively realistic point of view, they are not from the same world and have no future, so they should study hard; from an emotional point of view, Li Xinyuan currently only has the label of "study committee member", she has given Li Yan some support and help, so Li Yan will regard her as a good classmate.

It has nothing to do with liking.

Given Li Yan's current development trend, it's not easy to make him fall in love with her.

Not to mention Wei Yunzhi, who is the apple of his eye, has a good personality and was once a stunning beauty to him, just Lin Zhengmo, the girl sitting in front of him, would have been enough to make Li Yan in his previous life obsessed.

I have to play an exciting game of truth or dare, and then call her on a hands-free basis in front of my roommates. The last "hello" will make everyone laugh like little idiots.

But now, the sisters still have a lot of room for improvement.

So in summary, what Li Yan wants to say to Li Xinyuan is:

study well.

The reply he received was: I will definitely work hard!
At this time, Li Xinyuan was looking at her mobile phone with a lost look in her eyes.

She never imagined that one day her fantasy would be destroyed by her overly strong yearning.

The girl hiding in the quilt had the sound of rain all around her ears.

There was clearly no rain outside.
