It was mid-May, and it was still raining heavily yesterday. The drainage ditches on the roadside were covered with fallen branches and cherry blossom petals soaked by the rain.

It cleared up this morning, and the plumb low clouds were blown away by the southerly wind. A voluntary sweep was organized on campus. The dead branches and leaves were swept together and piled high into a small hill. I don't know where students pressed their brooms on top.

, to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.

Along the roadside, emerald green and pink branches stretched out, swaying in the wind like the seductive fingers of lovers. Many people from outside the school gathered under the tree to take pictures. Some unruly ones took advantage of others not paying attention and took the opportunity to shake the trunk, and then

Bathed in the rain of colorful flowers, some students who were responsible for protecting their territory ran over and shouted loudly.

There was always one meter between Jiang Xinhai and Chen Ya. Chen Ya followed her and saw the small white ears peeking out from the side of her black hair. There were beads of sweat on the back of her turquoise shirt, and her neck was slender.

Slender, like a character running out of a portrait hanging in an art gallery.

The two didn't speak for a long time, and there was a long silence between them.

Jiang Xinhai considers herself not a cold person. If given the chance, she would definitely become quite proactive.

Chen Ya walked up to her and said, "Do you know why the song is called "Red Beans"?"

"Uh... because the name "Mung Bean" doesn't sound good?"

Chen Ya said: "Every time your answer surprises me, I really like you more and more."

Jiang Xinhai looked back at him in surprise.

At first she thought he was confessing his feelings, but he had no intention of continuing, so she was a little unsure again.

So she turned around to cover up her uncertainty, and her long hair fluttered in the air.

"Hongdou means lovesickness, and is also called lovesickness child, so we have to sing about the painful and lingering feeling of longing."

"oh."

Jiang Xinhai calmly walked away from him one meter away.

Chen Ya asked from behind: "Have you been running away from me?"

"Sorry, I can't walk alongside people wearing trousers and sneakers."

In fact, many people have already looked at them along the way. They are still there now.

"Are you afraid of being embarrassed?"

"It's not that I'm afraid of embarrassment... OK, I'm just afraid of embarrassment." Jiang Xinhai combed her bangs, "What considerations did you have to do such a thing?"

Chen Ya lowered his head and looked at his sneakers: "My favorite writer said that as long as you insist on wearing sneakers and running long distances, you will always be a boy."

"How old are you to be a boy?" Jiang Xinhai asked.

"18."

Jiang Xinhai's expression finally changed: "Are you only 18?"

"Why can't I be 18?"

"Did you publish so many songs at the age of 18?" Jiang Xinhai asked in surprise, "I thought you were at least in your twenties."

"You are 18 years old now, aren't you already a big star?"

Jiang Xinhai tilted his head, feeling like he wanted to refute everywhere, but he didn't know where to refute.

She always feels that there is nothing special about herself. Deep down in her heart, she still admires talented people and feels that the people who write songs are different from herself.

The person who wrote the popular song was actually the same age as herself, and she finally began to be convinced of Chen Ya.

"Well, even though you're awesome," she said, awkwardly wagging a finger in the air, "you still can't walk next to me in trousers and sneakers."

"Do you want me to take it off and go barefoot?"

"Then I will move away from you faster."

"You don't want to be chased by a barefooted man, do you?"

"You don't want to be arrested and taken to the Public Security Bureau, right?"

"I surrender."

…

The two chatted for a while and soon arrived at the vocal room.

Jiang Xinhai borrowed it in the classroom without any effort. Chen Ya walked to the piano, played a few notes with his fingers, and said:

"Conditions are limited, so I will play the rough melody on the piano."

Jiang Xinhai folded his arms and stood beside her, looking at her angrily.

She thought Chen Ya was joking.

She brought him here just because there was a guitar and bass here. She never thought that Chen Ya could also play the piano.

Chen Ya sat down upright, with his back straight. If you didn't look at the sneakers on his feet, his temperament was still the same.

Jiang Xinhai's eyelashes fluttered a few times.

His fingers touched the keys, and then, a delicate melody flowed out from his fingertips as an intro.

The jumping notes were like red beans falling into the plate, and then the tone dropped.

The lyrics she had seen before fell into her mind like peeling apricot blossoms.

“I haven’t really felt it yet,

A climate where snowflakes bloom,

We will understand better when we tremble together,

What is gentleness.

I haven’t held hands with you yet,

Walking through the barren sand dunes,

Maybe I will learn to cherish it from now on,

The sky is long and the earth is long..."

After Chen Ya's fingers played a few legato notes on the keys, Jiang Xinhai knew that the chorus was about to enter.

She opened her lips:

"Sometimes, sometimes,

I will believe that everything has an end,

There is time to get together and leave,

Nothing lasts forever..."

Chen Ya soon discovered that she was actually singing along. With a twist of his fingers, he immediately switched from melody to accompaniment.

As a result, Jiang Xinhai and the sound of the piano merged together perfectly, just like rainwater blending into a river.

The melodious sound of piano and singing floated out of the classroom. It was noon at this time, and there were not many people in the teaching building. A few students heard the sound and began to poke their heads around.

"But sometimes I

I would rather choose to linger and not let go,

Wait until the scenery is clear,

Maybe you will accompany me to watch the long flowing water..."

While Chen Ya was playing the piano, his eyes widened at Jiang Xinhai's voice.

When she sang the high notes, her voice was like blue and white porcelain, transparent and crisp, as if it would break at the touch of a touch.

From head to toe, her voice has an unpolished greenness, but it is this slightly shy greenness that makes people fascinated and makes them want to protect this unique voice.

So Chen Ya breathed quickly while playing the piano. Only then did he confirm that his discernment had not found the wrong person.

The Jiang Xinhai who caught the eye at first glance was indeed the same as the original singer of this song in his previous life. He was the kind of talented player that God himself came down to earth and put food into his mouth.

Jiang Xinhai quickly became immersed.

She regained the feeling she had when she sang the ending song of "Pink" in the recording studio. She loved this feeling of being immersed in the music, with all the cells in her body flowing along with the rhythm.

And she also saw Chen Ya's expression in the accompaniment.

The other party's undisguised shock made her very satisfied.

He has been bragging since the two met. He should have shown this expression a long time ago.

When Chen Ya's piano keys dropped the last note, applause rang out outside the window.

The two of them looked back and realized that there were already more than a dozen people standing outside the vocal music classroom at noon.

Chen Ya calmed down his emotions and said, "I'll just say that you are the only thing missing from me before I can achieve success."

Jiang Xinhai combed her hair on her temples.

"If your other songs can maintain this level, then you really have a chance."

Chen Ya smiled crookedly: "Among the 10 songs I prepared, this song's quality can only be considered average."

Jiang Xinhai narrowed his eyes.
