Slowly Falling For Changkong

Chapter 5

Views:

This was Xu Lian's first time listening to the concert, and the atmosphere was even warmer than she imagined. Those melodies that she had forgotten in the depths of her memory became alive again, and the audience's chorus continued to vibrate her eardrums like waves. She thought she understood what Zhang Guoer said about her feelings and original intentions.

Wei Yichen was very high all the time. He was a huge fan of pumpkin, and pumpkin's music almost filled his entire youth.

Xu Lian looked at Wei Yichen who was singing beside her. He was no different from the thousands of other audience members in the audience, but maybe he had the opportunity to be the one who sang on the stage.

After more than two hours of concert, the people on stage and off stage were exhausted. Wei Yichen's mood hasn't calmed down yet, so Xu Lian insists on driving by himself.

On the way, Wei Yichen kept chatting in Xu Lian's ear, and even took out his mobile phone to play back the small video he just recorded offstage. Xu Lian focused on driving the whole time and ignored him, but Wei Yichen also had a good time by himself.

The hot topic on Weibo continued to be captured by pumpkin. Wei Yichen sat in the passenger seat and swiped Weibo and shouted: "Huh? Feng Jing also went to today's concert and was photographed. I decided that his next The movie will support his box office." After ranting to himself, he turned to Xu Lian and asked, "Do you know Feng Jing?"

Xu Lian said: "I know, movie stars, they are quite handsome."

"You praise other men for being handsome?"

"So what?"

"Nothing, I decided I'm not going to support the box office for his next movie."

Xu Lian: "…"

Your support is too cheap.

Wei Yichen finally closed Weibo and glanced at the street view outside the window: "Are you going to drive straight home?"

"Yup."

"..." Wei Yichen pursed his lips, moved closer to Xu Lian, and deliberately lowered his voice to tempt him, "Let's go have a big meal."

"It's too late, don't eat."

"Then... let's do something else?"

Wei Yichen's voice is inherently sexy. When he deliberately shows this kind of sexy, most women may not be able to resist. After he said these words, the atmosphere in the car changed immediately, Xu Lian turned his head, Wei Yichen looked at her expectantly.

Xu Lian: "Go away."

Wei Yichen: "..."

After driving the car back to the community where she lived, Xu Lian gave the driver's seat back to Wei Yichen. Before leaving, she knocked on the car window, bent over and said to Wei Yichen who was inside, "Be careful when you drive. I've seen people who drink and get drunk, but never listen to a concert."

Wei Yichen: "..."

Wei Yichen smiled at her, fastened his seat belt and drove away.

It was almost eleven o'clock when he got home. He thought that everyone in his family was asleep so late, but he didn't expect to be caught by his father as soon as he stepped into the house.

Wei Zhenting was wearing pajamas, and when he heard the door open, he looked at the time on the wall, frowning and accusing Wei Yichen: "You ran again..." Before he could finish speaking, he was shocked by the makeup on Wei Yichen's face, "You made yourself a fool. What the hell!"

His reaction Wei Yichen didn't take it to heart at all, and even smiled at him quite happily: "Does it look good? I made it specially. When you go to a concert, of course you have to dress up for the occasion."

He didn't say that Wei Zhenting knew what concert he was going to go to, and he became even more furious: "How many times have I said that you are not allowed to engage in rock and roll, but you don't listen to it, do you?"

"What's the matter, why are you so loud at night?" Wei's mother came down from the upstairs and was stunned when she saw her son's dress, "Son, your makeup is..."

Wei Yichen walked towards her with a smile, and hugged her shoulders affectionately: "Not bad, Mom? I'll teach you how to change it next time." After he finished speaking, he let go of his mother and walked straight to the upstairs room.

"Come back to me! It's getting more and more disrespectful to you!" Wei Zhenting shouted while standing in the living room, Wei Yichen turned a deaf ear, and went back to the room without a pause.

Closing the door, the smile on his face disappeared. Wei Zhenting's scolding was faintly heard downstairs. Wei Yichen walked over to the record player, put a pumpkin's CD in it, and turned the stereo to maximum.

The hearty guitar sound suddenly flowed out, accompanied by powerful drums and passionate bass, instantly filling the entire room. Wei Yichen raised his hands, "pressed the strings" with one hand and "plucked the strings" with the other, and played the air guitar in the room along with the rhythm of the music.

His every beat is very accurate, and his movements are also very accurate. With the music in the stereo, it really gives people the illusion that it is him plucking the air to make the sound.

After the enthusiastic prelude, he sang along to Ray on the record.

"You asked about my future dreams

That's a forbidden door

Some things I dare not touch

Like the sour green plum

He frowned after taking a sip..."

This is Pumpkin's famous song "Ome", and it is also the opening song of tonight's concert. As soon as the prelude came out, it stirred up all the excitement of the audience.

When this song was sung, the average age of the band members was only 19 years old, just as young as a green plum. Wei Yichen had watched a previous talk show, and the host asked Ray what the song wanted to express, and Ray replied, Qingmei is sour and beautiful, so is love, and so is dream.

"What the hell is he doing up there!" Even though the Wei family's villa was built and renovated with special consideration for soundproofing, it still hasn't done the music in Wei Yichen's room. Wei Zhenting frowned and walked upstairs, kicking Wei Yichen's door: "I think your brain is really sick! Do you know what time it is?"

Wei's mother quickly followed and persuaded him: "don't be angry, don't be angry, you are so angry that you are in the hospital, and he will not come to see you."

Wei Zhenting: "..."

More pissed off.

“… until the green plum gradually turns red

Sour and sweet blend on the tip of the tongue

At that time, I could reach out and touch the rainbow in the sky"

Wei Yichen was immersed in his own music, until he finished playing a passionate song, and then fell on his big bed, his chest heaving violently.

On the wall opposite his bed was a guitar, a broken guitar.

Ten years have passed since that year, but he still has a fresh memory.

That year, his father broke the first guitar in his life. That year, pumpkin officially announced his disbandment and bid farewell to the music world...

Fortunately, their music stayed.

Wei Yichen bought a new guitar after that, and then was broken by his father. When he broke his third guitar, he learned a new skill - air guitar.

This guitar, his father can't break it again.

Wei Zhenting was still kicking his door outside, Wei Yichen got up and turned off the stereo, picked up the towel and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

The abruptly stopped music made Wei Zhenting retract his legs in midair. He straightened his clothes and said to Wei's mother, "Get a doctor for your son tomorrow and help him take a good look at his brain!"

Wei's mother: "..."

Ever since Wei Yichen fell in love with rock and roll, the conflict between the father and son has never stopped. She also mediated in the middle, but the two were equally stubborn and neither of them would give in first.

"Alas." She shook her head and followed Wei Zhenting back to the room.

For many fans of pumpkin, tonight may be a sleepless night, but for Xiang Zhangkong, tonight is not much different from other nights. Considering the morning shift the next day, he also went to bed half an hour earlier than usual.

The morning shift started at 6:00 in the morning. Xiang Zhangkong got up at 4:30, went to the kitchen to fry a plate of sour green vegetables, boiled a pot of lean meat porridge, ate breakfast by himself, and left a note on the table for his mother. , before going to work.

Although there are not as many orders in the early morning as at noon and in the evening, there are still customers who get up early to order. Xiang Changkong went to a fast food restaurant to pick up a good meal, and rode a battery car to a neighborhood near Xingguang Park.

Because this community does not allow battery cars to enter, Xiang Changkong rode to the door, parked the battery cars, and went to the security guard at the door to help him open the door.

It was just seven o'clock now, and the security guard opened the window of the duty room with a look of impatience: "The food delivery guy is at work so early?"

"Yeah." Xiang Changkong just nodded and said nothing.

The security guard glanced at his battery car and said to him, "Put your battery car to the side and don't block others."

Xiang Changkong's battery car was parked where it wouldn't block any cars or people coming in and out, but he still walked over and moved the battery car to the side. He knew that the security guard was just trying to find fault with him.

When he first came to this community to deliver meals, he met this security guard. Because he didn't know the exact location of the guests, Xiang Changkong asked him which direction the nine buildings were. Instead of telling him immediately, the security asked him if he had any cigarettes.

Originally, it wasn't a big deal to want a cigarette, but Xiang Zhangkong didn't smoke, so naturally he wouldn't bring cigarettes with him. The security guard thought he wouldn't even give him a cigarette, so he gave him random directions.

There are a total of sixteen buildings in this community, which is a relatively large real estate. Because the battery car can't enter and can only walk by itself, the time for food delivery has become more urgent. Fortunately, Xiang Changkong quickly found out that something was wrong, and he found the location of the nine buildings.

Now he has long remembered the locations of the sixteen buildings, and of course, the security guard also remembered him.

As he passed the twelve buildings, he saw a man in a gray tracksuit coming out of the building. A white towel hangs around her neck, and the ponytail behind her keeps swaying from side to side because of her trotting posture.

It's Xu Lian.

Xiang Changkong did not expect to see Xu Lian here, and was stunned for a while. He had delivered meals to Xu Lian many times, all of which were delivered to the store. He never thought that she also lived in this community.

Xu Lian, who came out for a morning run, was different from when she was in the store. Perhaps because she didn't wear makeup, her temperament was much softer, not as flamboyant as in the daytime. Xiang Zhangkong didn't stare at her for too long, he quickly withdrew his gaze and walked past her without looking sideways.

It wasn't until Xu Lian ran in the opposite direction from where he delivered the meal that his hand holding the takeaway bag relaxed a bit.

He knew that his attention to Xu Lian had exceeded the attention he should have paid to a customer, but that was all. Because he also knew that he was just a takeaway.
