The port city is small in size, but it is surrounded by the sea on three sides. The warm tropical wind blows slowly into the city from the South China Sea, blowing away the severe winter cold in the northern hemisphere. With dark clouds and night wind, thousands of boats, large and small, are moored on the beautiful Victoria Harbour, meeting in this charming oriental city.
When Qi Mu arrived in this pocket city, he seemed to find that the coat on his body was too cumbersome. By the time he came out of the airport changing room, he had only put on a thin white long coat.
The hotel Qi Mu booked was on Lantau Island, which was some distance from the center of Hong Kong City. After he arrived at the hotel by taxi, he put down his things, simply packed and groomed, and came to Hong Kong. The first night in the city passed peacefully.
When he was on a global tour with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, Qi Mu had been to Hong Kong City. This city that never sleeps left a deep impression on him, but unfortunately, due to the hasty itinerary, he never had the opportunity to travel more.
Therefore, when he came to Hong Kong City for the second time, Qi Mu got up early in the morning, and after finishing his grooming, he planned to go out to play.
The handsome and beautiful young man only wore a thin t-shirt and casually tied a long white coat around his waist. This youthful and beautiful combination is especially suitable for young people in their early twenties. At that time, the guest in the room next to him who was just about to enter the room couldn't help pulling down his sunglasses and looked at him silently for a long time.
Qi Mu put the key card directly into his pocket. As soon as he turned around, he saw the man who had been staring at him for a long time.
Qi Mu: "..."
Min Chen: "..."
Qi Mu subconsciously hurriedly turned to look at the door of his room, and after confirming that it was really not an apartment in City B, he finally believed - Min Chen didn't know why he appeared next to his room again!
The black and white baseball cap on the head covered the upper half of the young man's face, which also effectively relieved part of the embarrassment. Qi Mu thought about it for a while, and finally asked with a smile, "Mr. Min, have you come to Hong Kong City too? Are you here to play?"
"Well, at a music festival."
Qi Mu: "..."
The answer is so straightforward!
Seemingly aware of Qi Mu's embarrassment, Min Chen's deep eyes hid a smile, and he said calmly, "I didn't expect to book the same hotel with you again, what a coincidence."
Min Chen really didn't lie. He didn't deliberately ask Daniel to do anything. He just hoped that he wouldn't live in the bustling city center. So, without Min Chen's knowledge, Daniel booked this hotel on Lantau Island, and at the same time... also lived next door to Qi Mu.
Min Chen was really surprised when he saw Qi Mu, but Qi Mu... didn't think so.
Let the person you ate with at noon yesterday reappear next to your room after thousands of kilometers the next morning. Anyone will feel this... How do you say that word? stalker
The word flashed through Qi Mu's mind quickly, and then he subconsciously shook his head, throwing this inexplicable thought away. How could Min Chen be a stalker? Well, it must be overthinking it, of course.
"I didn't expect you to live here, but the music festival will officially start next week, Mr. Min... Are you planning to play again?" After thinking about it, Qi Mu smiled politely again: "I am also Are you planning to go out and have a look, shall we go together?"
While talking, Qi Mu looked at the small suitcase that Min Chen was holding.
After hearing Qi Mu's words, Min Chen raised an eyebrow in surprise, and after a while, he nodded lightly: "Okay, let's go together."
Qi Mu: "..."
Shouldn't it be the answer "I still have to put my luggage, let's go together later"? !
No matter what the process is, the result is that since the first day of playing in Hong Kong City, Qi Mu will play around with the next-door neighbor every day. Sometimes it happened by chance, and sometimes it was the night before going back to the house before the next day's itinerary was agreed.
All in all, Qi Mu has really accepted the fact that "this trip to the port city seems to be inseparable from this man".
Although he was a little uneasy in his heart, after getting along with Min Chen, Qi Mu was surprised to find that his previous understanding of this man seemed to be a little off.
Qi Mu had gone to several Berlin Philharmonic concerts before. In such a splendid concert hall, this man always suppressed the restlessness of the audience with his incomparable aura, and kept all the notes in his hands. in the hands of a person.
As Zheng Weiqiao said, with "Fate" as the ending song, I am afraid that only this man can do this kind of thing in the world today.
But it is such a man who is supposed to be elegant and noble, but he can follow him, walk through the crowded stream of people in Causeway Bay, take off his shoes and go to the sea in the gentle water of Repulse Bay, and experience the touch of the thin sea breeze blowing on his cheeks.
If Min Chen still had an indifferent expression when he did these things, then what happened when two big men were playing in Disneyland the day before the opening of the music festival was finally a complete break. Qi Mu's inherent view of Min Chen.
Disney is a childhood dream that everyone in the world cannot destroy. When Qi Mu was a child, he also wanted to go to this paradise mentioned on TV, but his adoptive parents and adoptive mother's family were originally only ordinary, and then he deliberately went to such a place. Some high consumption.
So when he came to Hong Kong City, the place Qi Mu wanted to go most was Disney.
Originally, if Qi Mu thought about going to such a place, Min Chen might not be happy. But to his surprise, when he proposed that he wanted to go to Disneyland on the last day, the handsome and elegant man just gave him a surprised look, then nodded and said, "Let's go together tomorrow."
"… "
In such a place, in addition to some young girls with fairy tale dreams, more are parents with children. So when two tall, straight and handsome men walked side by side on Disney's diamond-like path, many surprised or astonished eyes looked at them without hesitation.
Qi Mu's skin has always been very white. He used a black and white baseball cap to cover his face, revealing only his full lips. And Min Chen doesn't seem to be very afraid of the harsh tropical sunlight, but letting such a man wearing a pair of sunglasses and a face written "Don't approach strangers" walks on Disney's Diamond Trail, it really makes people feel weird. .
Although Min Chen didn't show any discomfort along the way, when it was time for lunch, Qi Mu couldn't help but ask, "Min Chen... Are you sure, are you going to continue shopping in the afternoon?" Getting along, Qi Mu felt that the biggest improvement was that he could call each other's names directly.
After listening to Qi Mu's words, Min Chen put down the cup in his hand and frowned slightly: "You don't want to go shopping in the afternoon?"
Qi Mu shook his head: "I still want to stroll around for a while, but I think... You don't seem to like shopping here?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qi Mu's words fell, Min Chen raised his phoenix eyes to look at him, and calmly said: "No, I like it very much."
"… "
So during the afternoon's itinerary, the man who just said "I like it very much" was still indifferent, looking casually, without the slightest excitement and joy. When Qi Mu saw this, he couldn't help laughing and crying.
It happened just before the evening. They had just strolled to the theme area of Peter Pan, and before they took a few more steps, they heard a voice from the radio: "Tomorrow is the annual ocean music in Hong Kong City. It's the festival, all the tourists who come to the Peter Pan area today can come on stage and play a tune, and Peter Pan will give everyone a gift!"
Qi Mu looked in that direction in astonishment. Before his eyes could jump over the head of the slave, he heard a stammering piano sound suddenly. Qi Mu was startled, and subconsciously said in a low voice, "Tchaikovsky's etude op.7?"
A low and magnetic male voice sounded in his ear: "Well, it's this one." Min Chen's tone was calm and calm. After a while, Min Chen said helplessly: "No wonder he stutters so much, he looks like he's less than 5 years old."
I saw that on the small stage of Peter Pan, a little boy with blond hair and blue eyes was playing hard. His little finger was only so long, but he was able to play a piece of music from beginning to end. is very good.
When his performance was over, the staff in Peter Pan costumes gave the children a box of cookies. Seeing that there were gifts, the children in the audience were even more eager to try, and soon several children got cookies.
Seeing that all the children under the age of ten appeared, the other adults laughed and applauded them. When the fifth person was about to enter, a boy who seemed to be in his teens entered. The black-haired little Chinese boy shyly sat down in front of the piano before playing the second note. Qi Mu's eyes widened, and he turned to look at the man beside him in surprise.
I saw that under the splendid sunset in the evening, Min Chen's dark and deep eyes seemed to reflect endless rays of light, he looked meaningfully at the boy on the stage who was playing seriously, and said in a flat tone: ""Sonata in D Minor". As soon as the words fell, Min Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Qi Mu, his lips slightly hooked: "You heard the second sound, very familiar?"
Qi Mu helplessly smiled and rolled his eyes, nodded and said, "I've heard all of your songs. This "D Minor" was your first performance in London when you were seventeen."
Hearing this, Min Chen lowered his eyes slightly and pretended to stare at Qi Mu casually, but he just made a soft "um" and didn't say any more.
On the stage, the boy was still playing hard and earnestly. His age seems to be no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, and although this "Sonata in D Minor" is only a piece written by Min Chen at the age of seventeen, the difficulty is not low. Missed a few notes and missed a few beats.
Qi Mu looked at the boy who took Peter Pan's cookie with red eyes, raised his brows and sighed, "This song is still difficult, I think the boy should have been practicing for a while. Although I don't know much about the piano, I think... His mistakes are probably not small, and he seems to cry when he realizes his mistakes."
This kind of dedicated and hard-working person is what Qi Mu admires the most. They may be a little less talented, but they really like their instruments, so they work so hard to play them well.
Qi Mu looked at the boy's more ordinary clothes and some old sneakers, and frowned slightly: "It's a pity, I don't think I can afford a good teacher..."
Qi Mu's voice was low, just whispering in his throat. But the voice came directly into the ears of a man with a strong sense of sound. Min Chen lowered his eyes and looked at Qi Mu's helpless expression, his thin lips twitched, and he asked in a low voice, "Do you think this boy is very good? good?"
Qi Mu nodded lightly, turned his head and said: "Well, at least he works hard enough, even if his talent is not enough, he is much better than many people. It's just a pity that his talent... and family background may not be enough to support him to have an excellent talent. Teacher, enter a good academy." As he spoke, Qi Mu's voice gradually fell, as if he had remembered something.
Seeing Qi Mu's expression that seemed to understand, Min Chen slightly hooked his lips, and he stretched out his hand and took off Qi Mu's baseball cap at once.
Qi Mu raised his head in surprise and asked, "You are..." His voice stopped the moment he saw the other party, only to see Min Chen put the baseball cap on his head and matched it with a pair of The wide sunglasses covered almost half of his face.
Qi Mu's eyes widened in surprise, as if he didn't understand what the other party was trying to do.
I saw Min Chen put his index finger in front of his lips and let out a soft "shh", and then under Qi Mu's horrified eyes, he took a step—
On the stage!
