three
Oh, never mind, we do not understand the world of the great ones, just appreciate the beauty.
At this moment, all other noise seemed to recede like the tide, leaving only Zhuang Feize still performing on stage. The white spotlight shone upon him, and although Tian Xin did not feel the brilliance of being the center of attention, she felt a sense of... loneliness. It was as if, regardless of what happened around him, he was the only one left standing in place.
This person is truly remarkable
She glanced to the side again and realized that the group of girls had already occupied the best spots below the stage, their eyes sparkling with pink hearts as they gazed at the person on stage. Moreover, it was not just them; even passersby who heard the sound stopped to record videos.
Zhuang Feichi smiled at her and said: "That is the sheng, the oldest musical instrument in China, composed of the sheng pipes, sheng reeds, and sheng body. Initially, my parents wanted him to learn the guqin, but this guy refused and instead chose an ancient instrument used for harmony."
What is in this gourd ...? ... Ah, no, what exactly is in the box? Tianxin's attention was drawn to the box, her eyes fixed on it without blinking. Zhuang Feize on the stage noticed her somewhat foolish expression, and his originally bad mood finally improved a bit
"Having talent is only natural." Zhuang Feichi looked at Zhuang Feize, who had just finished rehearsing and was walking over with a blank expression, feeling so pleased that he could almost whistle.
I do not know; the program was announced at the last minute. I only know that the piece being performed is "Plum Blossom Melody"
Zhuang Feize on the stage directly ignored the murmurs and simply lowered his head to adjust the reeds before beginning to play
Hehe, senior, why are you here again
This younger brother of mine seems to have changed quite a bit
"Meihua Yin"? What is that?
When the first sound emerged, the clear tone seemed to pierce through the clouds like a ray of sunlight, evoking a sense of warmth, yet accompanied by a thin chill
Tianxin leaned against the side of the stage, watching the senior students hurriedly preparing props on stage. A senior from the student council, holding the program list, rushed past her, anxiously glancing up while talking on the phone, searching for the director: "What? Jiang Siming and Zhang Qilin haven't arrived yet? There are only two performances left. Has Zhuang Dashen arrived? Let me ask the director if we can let Dashen rehearse first."
Is that so? Haha, senior, you are quite talented. Tianxin awkwardly curved the corners of her lips. Even if she were foolish, she would know that this instrument is renowned. Phrases like "I have guests, playing the zither and blowing the sheng" and "Silently, the sheng and xiao signal parting" are all well-known lines of poetry about the sheng. However, in real life, she indeed had never seen anyone perform it live.
Tianxin felt somewhat dejected and wanted to leave, when behind her came a series of sobs from the girls amidst the noisy crowd
Tian Xin furrowed her brows; after much effort in persuading Yang Cong and the others to leave, she only wished to quietly watch Jiang Siming by herself. However, to her surprise, the main character did not arrive
As soon as Tianxin thought of this possibility, the various thoughts that had just arisen in her heart were forcibly extinguished by her. Following Zhuang Feichi's gaze, she had to admit that Zhuang Feize on the stage was indeed...
What exactly is this
What should I do, what should I do? As Zhuang Feize approached, Tianxin became increasingly anxious. When Zhuang Feize glanced at her and called for his brother to prepare to turn and leave, Tianxin could no longer sit still and could only lift her foot to follow: "Wait a moment."
Junior, I did not expect that when I casually mentioned it last time, you actually came to volunteer. I heard on Weibo that you even brought a group of friends to help out, that's really impressive
Can you be a bit more casual? Tianxin couldn't help but step aside, not wanting to admit that she was the same as them
In a hurry, Zhuang Feize had already stepped onto the stage. The previously soiled white shirt had been replaced with a white cotton shirt with an open front, exuding a strong sense of ancient style. His brows and eyes still bore a hint of indifference, and his thin lips were tightly pressed, indicating that he was not in a good mood at that moment
Tian Xin also noticed the people who had already tidied up and come over. She felt somewhat at a loss, but thinking of how he shone brightly at the evening party, stealing the spotlight that originally belonged to Jiang Siming, she also felt worried for her brother Siming
"Don't be shy, little junior. Look at my brother here, just standing around he becomes the center of attention; he will probably be the one who stands out the most tonight." It is unclear whether it was intentional or unintentional, but Zhuang Feichi paused significantly on the word "most."
Tianxin was also infected by the music, her eyes fixed on the person on stage without blinking. Although there was no apparent expression, it felt as if the song contained a multitude of emotions. Her beautiful eyes were gently closed, and her long, thick eyelashes resembled small fans resting on her eyes, like butterflies softly landing on petals, inviting one to come closer
"Let's go." Zhuang Feize shot a covert glare at Zhuang Feichi, then strode towards the parking lot. Tian Xin happily followed, her smile blooming like a flower.
What did you say? Zhuang Feichi thought he was hallucinating; was this really his brother, the one who had been like a glacier for ten thousand years?
Zhuang Feize carefully opened the box and slowly took out a black musical instrument from inside. The instrument appeared to be a bundle of many black bamboo pieces tied together, then strung with golden silk thread according to the patterns. The black bamboo had air holes, suggesting that it might be an instrument similar to a clarinet
But what exactly is this? Tianxin was completely baffled.
What did you say? Tianxin was almost moved to tears; as long as he agreed, she would definitely take him far away, with no intention of returning within the stipulated time
What is the instrument that the master is holding? I have never seen such a musical instrument before
"How could that be? It seems you are fated to be together." A soft teasing voice reached Sweet Xin's ears, startling her into quickly looking up and stepping aside. It was only then that she realized the girls had dispersed at some point, leaving only a person with gold-rimmed glasses and a mischievous smile.
"That's right, that's right, Zhuang Feize... Senior, you must be very tired performing tonight, so let me treat you to a meal as a reward." Seeing that they did not immediately refuse, Tianxin seemed to see a glimmer of hope and couldn't help but step forward to tug at Zhuang Feize's sleeve, smiling with a flattering expression, "Senior, Senior, I know a great restaurant, let's go eat there. Health is the foundation of revolution."
Tianxin's mind suddenly jumped to this thought, and she quickly lowered her head, vigorously slapped her own face, and whispered: "You actually want to hug him, have you not taken your medicine?"
That was a misunderstanding, senior. If I had known that you two brothers would show up, I definitely would not have come to be this volunteer
"Senior, Zhuang Feize... What instrument is Senior playing? It's quite rare, haha," Tianxin said somewhat awkwardly.
Tianxin found it somewhat strange; how could this guy change his demeanor so quickly after just a short while? She scrutinized him suspiciously, only to discover that he was holding a cylindrical black leather case in his slender, strong hands. From its appearance, it neither resembled a Western musical instrument like a violin nor seemed to contain a traditional instrument like the erhu.
However, Tianxin did not notice his gaze and kept waiting for him to open the box, even standing on tiptoe to see clearly what he was performing.
There are many others on site who, like her, are unaware of the situation. Due to her special position, numerous female volunteers have gathered around her, their eyes sparkling with affection as they gaze at the person on stage
Zhuang Feichi was left behind by himself. He touched his chin and looked at the backs of the two people walking side by side in front of him, as if he had made a new discovery
Tianxin rolled her eyes, knowing without turning around that the legendary master had indeed arrived
Why do I feel like hugging him while listening to his music
"I said, junior..." Before Zhuang Feichi could finish his refusal, Zhuang Feize, who had been silent, spoke up to interrupt him, saying, "Sure."
"Junior, do you have any business?" The response came from Zhuang Feichi's smiling voice and Zhuang Feize's meaningful gaze
If it weren't for Zhuang Feichi taking the initiative to sign him up for some welcome party, he wouldn't be here today at all, nor would he be pursued by Zhuang Feichi with questions about saving someone. Thinking of this, Zhuang Feize couldn't help but glance at Tianxin, blaming this guy.
The most prominent? Is it even more prominent than Jiang Siming? This is unacceptable
"Eating? At this time?" Zhuang Feize looked at the cloudless sky and then glanced at the hour hand on his watch pointing to 4.
I—"Tianxin didn’t know what to say, but in a moment of impulse, she instinctively called out to them, "Well, it’s getting late, how about I treat the two seniors to a meal!"
Isn't it quite impressive? The master is playing an instrument of unknown origin, and it certainly exudes an extraordinary level of sophistication
The tenth program, a skit by the English Department, titled "Single..." Please have the next guest ready. The on-site director was continuously urging the performers with a megaphone, and the rehearsal for the evening's event was proceeding smoothly
I came to accompany my younger brother for the rehearsal, is there a need for a reason? Zhuo Feichi looked at the girl in front of him, who was staring with wide, rabbit-like eyes, and smiled cheerfully. However, that smile seemed to carry an ulterior motive.
