"Classmate, what are you doing here alone?"
Tao Xi looked up and saw an uncle in his 40s wearing a security uniform looking at him. He slowly stood up from the ground, and the moment he got up, his feet were a little numb and he almost lost his footing.
The security guard was stunned when he saw Tao Xi's expression through the twilight outside the window, thinking that this student might have just suffered some grievances and wanted to vent his emotions in a concert hall where no one was there, so he asked with concern:
"Are you a student of the orchestra? No keys?"
Tao Xi was silent for a while, then nodded.
"It's alright, I'll open the door for you." The uncle security guard walked towards the door of the concert hall with a bunch of keys. Seeing that Tao Xi was still standing beside the trash can, he urged doubtfully, "Why didn't you come?"
Only then did Tao Xi walk towards the door of the concert hall. His footsteps were a little messy, and his fingers were tightly clenched together. He saw that the familiar door was opened, and in the huge empty concert hall, the red-gold twilight was spread through the long floor-to-ceiling windows. Shin, burning silently on the black piano in the center.
"Don't practice piano in it for too long, just remember to close the door when you leave." The security guard reminded, turning his head and seeing that the student next to him seemed even more sad when the door opened.
He didn't have much to say, and said a few more words.
Tao Xi thanked the security guard and stood quietly at the door for a while before pulling a jagged shadow towards the black piano in the twilight.
He sat down on the piano chair, opened the lid, and the twilight flowed over the black and white keys in an instant, waiting for someone to play the notes.
He couldn't help thinking of that evening, which was also such a twilight. Lin Qinhe took him by the wrist and led him here. He turned his back to the concert hall and asked him, "Can you hold your tears here?"
Then he played "merry?christmas?mr.?lawrence" that only he could hear.
Tao Xi stared at the keys in front of him, recalling the gesture of the man when he played.
He stretched out his hands and wanted to play, but he didn't know how to play, and his hands were hanging above the keys.
In the end, he randomly pressed a white key on the keyboard, and the solitary note sounded abruptly in the empty concert hall.
He remembered that a long time ago, he hid outside the door and saw Lin Qinhe sitting in front of this piano playing, not far away was Yang Duole who was playing the cello, and other members of the symphony orchestra playing various instruments. They looked composure, as if they were born to sit in a splendid concert hall in fancy clothes.
At that time, he looked at those people, like peeping into another bright and beautiful world underground, full of jealousy and unwillingness.
Tao Xi took a deep breath and put his hand on the piano cover, trying to close it.
He thinks he finally understands that some things that have been lost and missed, even if they are found later, are not what they should be.
Just like even if he recognizes his relatives, he will never be able to go back to his childhood to learn a musical instrument, gain the love of his relatives, and have the time to grow up with Lin Qinhe.
Tao Xi wanted to get up and leave, but suddenly heard the sound of the door being opened from behind.
He immediately retracted his hands and clenched them on his knees, his upper body stiffened, and there was a guess in his heart that he couldn't believe, but he didn't look back, only hearing the familiar footsteps approaching him.
Soon the man walked up to the piano and sat down beside him.
After a short silence, the person sitting next to him stretched out his beautiful fingers and played a short familiar note on the keys.
It was that song, Tao Xi pursed his lips tightly, still not looking to the side.
Lin Qinhe asked him in a low voice, "Want to play the piano?"
Tao Xi sneered, looked at Lin Qinhe suddenly, and said with a gun and a stick, "I'm not like you who received the best education since childhood. I can learn everything, how can I play the piano?"
His tone was extremely poor, his eyes were full of sarcasm and anger, but he didn't know that there were still wet tears on his face, and the eyelashes on his reddish and moist eyes were still glued together, which only made people feel that he was wronged.
Lin Qinhe looked at Tao Xi, his eyes darkened for a moment, he suddenly remembered, this person was also covered in thorns when he first came to Wenhua No. 1 Middle School, when did he become obedient in front of him
"You can play whatever you want, and I'll accompany you." Lin Qinhe's voice was calm, without a trace of displeasure.
Tao Xi was stunned for a moment, feeling that his anger was half quenched by a splash of cold water. He pursed his lips, stretched out his hands, and played on the keys in a random manner, making a series of strange piano sounds.
Lin Qinhe quickly stretched out ten fingers and matched the tune he played on the piano keys on the other side, miraculously transforming the chaotic piano sound into a tune that he could still listen to.
It's an odd four-handed combination of someone who doesn't know how to play the piano at all and someone who is extremely accomplished at the piano.
As if he was out of breath, Tao Xi deliberately played faster and more chaotically, but Lin Qinhe always worked hard to cooperate with him. It seemed that no matter what he played, it would become in Lin Qinhe's hands. The most beautiful music in the world.
It wasn't until Tao Xi's ten fingers were pressed together on the piano keys that they didn't move, making a very uncoordinated and unpleasant piano sound. He turned his head to look at Lin Qinhe, raised his chin slightly, and his expression was somewhat provocative and willful.
Lin Qinhe looked at him, not angry, with some condoning helplessness in his eyes, and sighed softly, "I can't help you like this."
Tao Xi couldn't help laughing, but he quickly restrained his smile, still had an angry look on his face, lowered his head and said nothing.
Lin Qinhe accompanied him in silence for a while, only the increasingly rich red twilight outside the floor-to-ceiling window silently smeared the two sitting side by side in front of the piano.
Suddenly, Tao Xi heard Lin Qinhe ask him in a low voice, "Do you have anything to tell me, or ask me?"
His tone was so soft, as if he was coaxing him to speak.
Tao Xi looked down at the piano keys that were dyed orange in front of him, and his voice was still very aggressive:
"Yes, let me tell you, I really hate Lin Qinhe right now."
The tone was a little childish. He felt that Lin Qinhe might be angry when he heard it, but he heard Lin Qinhe answer calmly:
"Then I hate him too."
Tao Xi was startled and asked subconsciously, "Why?"
How can anyone say they hate themselves when others say they hate themselves? What's more, this person is still a perfect Lin Qinhe.
"Because he made you unhappy." Lin Qinhe looked down at him and whispered.
Tao Xi's eyelashes trembled violently, all the anger, sadness, grievance... all kinds of emotions poured into his heart together, sour and swollen, but could not be resolved.
He stood up abruptly from the piano chair, as if he was fed up with the feeling that his heart was hanging up and down. He wanted to completely vent the emotions that had been smoldering in his heart for a long time. He clenched his fists and shouted at Lin Qinhe. :
"Lin Qinhe, do you play me as a fool? You do it on purpose, you deliberately let me surround you every day, you let me make friends, but if I have a better relationship with others, you show me your face and deliberately ignore me! You lied to me that you went to college with me, and secretly applied to American schools with Yang Duole! They all said that you are good, good looks and good grades are good, but only I know that you are not good at all !"
He was still gasping for breath after shouting, but his heart seemed to be suddenly empty, and there was nothing but nothingness.
Tao Xi's eyes were red as he watched Lin Qinhe close the lid and stand up. He looked at himself, the gentleness he had shown when he played the piano patiently and coaxed others seemed to be an illusion, and his eyes were suppressed in the blood-red twilight. Dark, with a hoarse voice:
"Yes, I'm not good at all."
Before Tao Xi could react, he was suddenly dragged over, his eyes darkened, and a hand grabbed the back of his neck. He was forced to fold his neck and raised his head, and then his lips covered a layer of softness.
His mind went blank for a moment, he subconsciously closed his eyes and held his breath, forgetting everything, letting that person kiss him eagerly, licking his lips, the skin on the back of his neck was vigorously rubbed and kneaded by the calloused fingers, bringing Slightly tingling.
Tao Xi's eyelashes were trembling, his heart was beating violently, and his chest was rising and falling faster and faster. He had never been kissed, and he didn't even know how to open his mouth. Only his face was terrifyingly hot, his legs were getting softer and weaker, and he was unconscious. The ground leaned on Lin Qinhe.
This action seemed to please the other party, Lin Qinhe pressed his waist and took it into his arms, the kiss became softer, and then lightly kissed the corner of his mouth, and said to him in a hoarse voice:
"Look, I kissed you without your permission, it's not good at all."
Lin Qinhe let go of him, he slowly opened his eyes in dazzling dazzle, his eyes were wet with water, his breathing was a little short, looking at the blurred person in front of him, he murmured like a dream:
"You, what do you mean?"
He subconsciously pursed his wet lips, and there were only traces of fireworks flashing in his head, but he still couldn't believe that the fireworks really flashed for him.
Lin Qinhe lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the two red lips that he had kissed. He only gently massaged the delicate skin at the corners of his lips with his fingers, and said slowly:
"Meaning, I like you, I want to be nice to you, and I want to spend a good life with you, not just in college, but from now to a long time in the future, you must be by my side, and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
Tao Xi seemed to hear it clearly, but he didn't seem to hear it clearly, but he could clearly hear his increasingly violent heartbeat. He opened his eyes wide to look at Lin Qinhe, and finally saw this person clearly, but he seemed to have fallen in again. A rosy twilight dream.
He was worried about waking up from the dream, but he heard Lin Qinhe continue to say in a serious and determined tone:
"Tao Xi, I don't know what you have experienced before or what you are missing, but from now on, I will be the person who loves you the most in the world. I will give you everything you want, and you don't have to pretend to be good, in front of me. You can do whatever you want, and I will like all your willfulness."
Tao Xi's vision suddenly became blurred again, his eyes were sore, and he almost burst into tears, his heart seemed to be tightly held in his palm by a pair of warm hands.
He grew up to sixteen and never knew what it was like to be favored.
But Lin Qinhe said at the age of sixteen that he would be the person who favors him the most in the world.
Tao Xi tried hard to hold back the sourness in his nose, locked the tears in his eyes, and heard Lin Qinhe ask him softly:
"Then do you still hate Lin Qinhe now?"
Tao Xi quickly blinked away the tears in his eyes that he could not contain for a long time, but the voice that was roaring in his heart, like a dumping mountain and sea, could no longer be contained. He looked at Lin Qinhe with his clear eyes, took a deep breath, and bit his words. Seriously and sincerely, he said:
"I like Lin Qinhe, I only like Lin Qinhe, I like Lin Qinhe the most, I like Lin Qinhe more than myself, I am a Lin Qinhe supremacist!"
Those sentences written in the love letter, the words of love that made his cheeks warm at first glance, he said without hesitation, saying the three words of Lin Qinhe over and over again, as if to engrave these three words on the most conspicuous place in the world. Location.
Tao Xi's chest was still violently heaving, looking at Lin Qinhe's eyes as fiery as the falling sun outside the window, he suddenly broke free from the tangled purple mist and ash, and rolled violently on the horizon like a burning steaming wheel. The last red light was as determined as it burned out.
All the ashes on the horizon were burned into red gold and red clouds, and burned into the empty concert hall through the long windows, and also burned into Lin Qinhe's indifferent eyes. He silently looked at the boy with wet eyes in front of him, as if Suppressing something that was about to be unbearable, he suddenly stretched out his hand and clasped the back of his neck, lowered his head and kissed it again.
It's just that the kiss this time was more urgent, violent, and desperate, as if to burn out all lust and love.
