After a while, he suddenly leaned over and whispered to her, "Don't listen to what they say."
"What?" Ye Lan seemed not to understand.
"At 16 years old, study hard and don't look for a boyfriend."
Ye Lan was silent for a while, her lips were bitten hard by her. After a long while, she said softly "oh". She felt inexplicably depressed.
After a while, she couldn't help but blurt out, "Many students in our class have already started dating."
Tang Jifeng turned to look at her, raised his eyebrows, "Why, you want to have a boyfriend? Someone from your class?"
He looked around and asked, "Which boy is it?"
"I won't tell you, you're not my real brother." Ye Lan said in a sullen tone. Tang Jifeng could see her face becoming obviously unhappy and wanted to ask something, but before he opened his mouth, he heard Qiu Qiu say, "Lan Lan, it's your turn!"
"Hurry up, you're the next one on the show, go backstage and get ready."
Ye Lan took off his coat and handed it to Qiu Qiu, "Then I'll go."
She was still sulking, she didn't even know she was sulking, but after taking a step, she couldn't help it and turned back to look at Tang Jifeng. When she met his gaze, her voice became a little softer, "I'll go over there."
Tang Jifeng smiled.
This kid can't even stay angry for a minute.
"Do you need me to accompany you backstage?" he asked.
"It's better not to. It's fine in the first place. I'm afraid I'll be nervous if you go."
Tang Jifeng nodded and said "Come on". Ye Lan then walked backstage accompanied by Qiu Qiu.
——
Ye Lan's show was preceded by a stand-up comedy show. Tang Jifeng didn't pay much attention to it. The people in the audience were laughing so hard, but he felt it was boring and just waited for the next show.
Five minutes later, the stage finally closed.
The lights in the entire venue dimmed. After several tens of seconds, there was a "pop" sound, and the stage was illuminated. The curtain had not yet been opened, but the music had already started. Then, the curtain slowly opened, and the stage effect of the water curtain was already very eye-catching. In the center of the stage, the lifting platform opened, and a girl in a long white dress sat behind the double row of piano keys, facing the audience, her slender white fingers dancing gracefully, and she was gradually lifted onto the stage.
“It sounds so good~”
"so beautiful!"
"Isn't this the prettiest girl in Class 903?"
Around me, applause and discussions sounded like thunder.
Tang Jifeng sat there, watching from a distance. He suddenly found that he couldn't take his eyes away.
"Hey, do you think Ye Lan is simply the goddess among goddesses?"
"Anyway, when I look for a girlfriend, I want someone like her."
"She wore makeup today, right? I think she looks prettier with makeup on!"
"I don't think so. I feel equally beautiful with or without makeup!"
"Anyway, when she comes down, I'll go and confess my feelings to her! Don't you dare snatch it from me!"
Tang Jifeng sat there, staring at the backs of the two boys in front of him, frowning. What kind of books do kids read these days? Why are you expressing your feelings at such a young age? However, you need a chance to express your feelings.
Ye Lan finished playing the piano, bowed and looked up, subconsciously looking in the direction of Tang Jifeng. However, that direction was empty at the moment.
he's gone
He just left without even saying hello...
Ye Lan’s heart suddenly felt empty.
"Lanlan, come down!" Qiu Qiu called her. She came back to her senses, bowed and turned to leave. A familiar figure stood beside Qiu Qiu, which made her eyes light up.
Tang Jifeng...
It turned out that he didn't leave, and was waiting for her backstage at this moment.
Disappointment was swept away. Ye Lan smiled brightly. Not caring that the curtain had not been completely closed yet, he turned around and prepared to run towards him.
"Ah—" At this moment, the lift platform under my feet suddenly fell down.
"Be careful!" Tang Jifeng exclaimed, without thinking anything more, and rushed over at lightning speed. He held Ye Lan's waist with both hands, trying to pull her to a safe place. However, the elevator was descending too fast, and by the time he ran over, it was too late. He fell down with it.
Instinctively, he turned over and let Ye Lan press on him. He held her tightly with both hands and feet, protecting her whole body.
Tens of seconds later...
With a loud "bang", two people fell heavily to the ground along with the board.
"Gosh!"
"what happened?"
"Is he okay?"
The venue was in chaos. Everyone stood up. This floor was more than 5 meters high! Who knows what kind of mess is below. It would be strange if you don't get hurt if you fall down!
"Lanlan!" Qiu Qiu rushed over anxiously.
Falling from a height, not to mention how badly it hit him, the shock alone was great. Ye Lan was dizzy for a moment, and when he regained consciousness, he remembered Tang Jifeng who had just rushed over and protected him regardless of the danger. Moreover, he was now pinned down by him!
"Brother Ji Feng... Brother Ji Feng..." She turned to face him, trembling, and her voice was shaking. She was so scared that she could only call his name over and over again.
When I turned around, I saw his head covered in blood, which was shocking.
She suddenly felt dizzy and heartbroken, "Brother Ji Feng, please don't get hurt. You can't die! I won't let you die!"
She fell off him and knelt on the ground, shaking. She frantically searched for her phone, but it wasn't on her. She looked up and cried for help, "Call an ambulance!"
Tang Jifeng's bloody eyelashes trembled, and he opened his eyes with difficulty. He vaguely saw the little thing's heart-wrenching crying face, feeling helpless and distressed.
This is the first time I made her cry. I guess she was scared.
"Be good, don't cry..." He tried his best to make his voice sound less weak, "Your makeup is all ruined by crying, it's so ugly..."
Who cares about being ugly now? Ye Lan is in no mood for that!
"Hold on a little while, the ambulance will be here soon!" She touched her eyes, the entire eye circles were darkened by eyeliner and mascara, but she didn't care at all at the moment.
Tang Jifeng reluctantly responded, and then he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head and felt dizzy. He looked at her with a distracted gaze, trying to see if she had any injuries, but he couldn't see clearly. He just asked, "Are you hurt from the fall?"
Ye Lan cried even harder and shook his head.
It's obvious that he is the one who is in pain now, but he is still thinking about me.
"Did you fall anywhere?"
"No. You broke your head." She sobbed. She wanted to touch his head, but when she saw the blood, she was afraid of hurting him, so she pulled back and didn't dare to touch him.
