Secrets in the school always come and go quickly, and with the midterm exam approaching, everyone's focus is on the exam, and not many people go to the Bagua Tower to have fun and Gu Jiao anymore.
However, rumors still spread that even the police were alerted that day, and the principal hurried back and scolded the vice principal and director.
Through the office door, everyone in the class on the other side could hear it clearly.
However, nothing happened to the two protagonists at the center of the incident. They went to class and walked together as usual without any impact.
A clever person connected the cause and effect of the matter, guessing that Lou Jinhuan might have called the police. She was so frank, and the rumors of her support were self-defeating. No one was holding on to her anymore, but they sympathized with her.
Lou Jinhuan didn't feel anything about this. It was always easy for people to be swayed by rumors. When you said the earth was flat, some people believed it. She had seen it so much that she didn't take it to heart at all.
She was thinking about something else now.
Gu Jiao came back after washing his hands. After sitting down, he saw her holding a piece of paper and looking attentively. He asked curiously: "What are you reading? Are you giving out new papers?"
Lou Jinhuan shook his head and handed him the paper, "Registration form for the New Year's Day performance."
The New Year's Day performance is a major feature of their school. On the day before New Year's Day, a party is held in the auditorium. Each class has to put on at least one show. After the performance, the first, second and third places are selected, and each class has different prizes. .
"Last year's prize was a pen. This year's gift is more generous. It is said that we have secured sponsorship. The first, second and third places are all crystal trophies and commemorative brooches, which look very nice."
Lou Jinhuan also placed the photo of the prize on Gu Jiao's table.
Gu Jiao glanced at it and said, "Do you want to participate?"
"Anything is fine. If no one signs up, I can participate."
Lou Jinhuan turned the pen in his hand and stared at the blackboard in concentration.
Gu Jiao looked at the registration form and saw, well, there was no one there yet.
"Pah, pah, pah—"
The literary and art committee member stood on the podium at some point and said, "I'll spare you a few minutes. Please listen to what I have to say first."
The class fell silent and everyone looked over.
The art committee member is a somewhat introverted and shy girl. She was selected as the art committee member because no one wanted this position, so she was pushed for it.
She looked at the people in the classroom nervously, her face flushed, "Our school will hold a New Year's Day performance at the end of the year. Every class must participate and submit at least one program. The list will be finalized today, but so far, No one in our class signed up.”
She was almost crying, her voice was trembling slightly, "Are there any students with special talents who can sign up? This can give extra points to the class. For the honor of the class, is anyone willing to volunteer?"
After the words fell, the class was still silent, and no one stood up.
Also, not everyone is willing to perform on stage, especially in the top classes. Everyone is more concerned about studying and does not have much time and energy to prepare for the show.
Although the literary and art committee members had been mentally prepared for it, they still felt a little uncomfortable when it came to this moment.
The courage she had finally mustered up was about to fade away. As she lowered her head, tears welled up in her eyes.
"I regestrated--"
In the middle of the silence, Jinhuan raised his hand.
The literary committee member was startled and looked up at her as if looking at her benefactor.
"Really? Do you really want to sign up? What are you signing up for?"
Lou Jin said with a smile: "I can play the piano."
"Great!" The literary and art committee member was overjoyed. He quickly held back his tears and rushed over, "Then, can you fill out the form? By the way, where is the registration form?"
Gu Jiao lazily raised his hand, "Here I am."
"Ah? Ah..." The literary and art committee member was a little afraid of Gu Jiao. She stood far away and said: "Then Gu Jiao, give the registration form to--"
She watched helplessly as Gu Jiao wrote her name on the registration form, and then gave the registration form to Lou Jinhuan.
Lou Jinhuan glanced at him and Gu Jiao said, "I can play the violin and be your companion."
The piano and violin ensemble is really good. They actually practiced together when they were children. She still remembers the song they used, which was "Butterfly Lovers".
This piece is very classic and perfect for performance.
Before Lou Jinhuan could open her mouth, Gu Jiao saw it in her eyes, and he wrote two big characters - Butterfly Lovers - gracefully on the performance at the back.
"Okay, here it is." Gu Jiao handed the registration form to the art committee member. The art committee member was so moved that she almost cried. She bowed to the two of them, "Thank you. Come on, come to me if you need anything."
Lou Jinhuan nodded and watched the literary and art committee member return to his seat with relief. He smiled and picked up the pen to write today's homework. However, after writing a few words, a ball of paper suddenly rolled in front of him.
The person who threw the paper stared at his exercise book seriously, as if nothing happened.
Lou Jinhuan chuckled, "Prude."
Gu · Serious · Arrogant lowered his head and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
Opening the note, there was only one sentence on it, "Let's practice together tonight?"
What to practice? Butterfly Lovers?
Lou Jinhuan looked at these words, and the more he read, the more he felt that it was a trap.
Then……
She jumped in anyway.
…
There is a piano room in the Gu family villa, which has both piano and violin. Lou Jinhuan went down after doing his homework. The piano is always taken care of and can be used as soon as it is opened.
She pressed it twice to get a feel for it, then pulled out the previous sheet music and put it on the table, recalling it while playing it. By the second time she played it, it was already very smooth.
She closed her eyes for the third time and danced her fingers on the black and white keys. The mellow and gorgeous piano sound flowed out. The melodious music made people couldn't help but stop and listen.
The person who walked to the door paused, raised and lowered his hand, and finally did not knock on the door.
Gu Jiao stood at the door and listened for a while, then slowly closed his eyes and nodded to the rhythm.
[Wow, this scene is so touching. Separated by a door, the people inside are playing the piano, and the people outside are listening to the piano. Do you think he is listening to the piano? No, he listened to his own heart]
[The previous netizen, I was the first to disagree with you when you quit the literary world]
[These two people really have the taste of pure love. You are inside the door and I am outside the door. We are close at hand, but we cannot hug each other wantonly. Only behind the door where you can't see can I dare to release that love. Strong love...Hahahaha I'm talking nonsense, leave me alone]
The song ended, and the lingering sound lingered. Gu Jiao gently opened the door and saw Lou Jinhuan's hand still on the piano keys. He didn't move away for a long time. He seemed to be still immersed in the aftertaste, and didn't even notice that he had entered.
Lou Jinhuan was about to get up and move around when she was suddenly hugged from behind. His hot hands covered the back of her hand and led her to play a few pieces.
The faint aroma of mint enveloped her, and Lou Jinhuan couldn't help but smell it, "Have you eaten candy?"
