Originally, Li JinCheng thought that the black mist represented that person’s disgust or hatred for him. Now it seemed that he may have overthought it, because he and Xiao LiangYu had almost no interaction before.
“I am Xiao JingWen’s distant cousin. Are you her home-room teacher?”
Li JinCheng taught Chinese in Classes 3 and 5 and was also the home-room teacher of Class 3.
Knowing that he was reminding himself kindly, Li JinCheng quickly recovered and said: “I am”
After thinking about it, he added, “I really like listening to the violin you play.”
Xiao LiangYu probably didn’t expect to meet his fan here. He was stunned for a moment before he thanked Li JinCheng with a sincere smile.
He looked younger than in the photo, with fair complexion. His forehead was covered by wispy bangs, and his facial features gave people a very comfortable feeling.
Perhaps because of his profession, his overall temperament was rather cold, but when he smiled, there was a hint of warmth.
“JingWen forgot to bring her exercise book, and I happened to see it. So, I sent it over for her on a whim.”
The exercise book needed to be handed in this morning. Li JinCheng received it with a smile and said, “I will give it to her later.”
Xiao LiangYu looked at him carefully and said, “What is your name?”
He seemed a little curious about himself. Li JinCheng told his name. Xiao LiangYu smiled faintly and tilted his head, saying, “You said you like to listen to the violin I play?”
“Well, yes…”
“My solo concert is scheduled for the 28th of this month. Why don’t I come over tomorrow and give you two tickets?”
Li JinCheng didn’t expect him to be so enthusiastic. When he heard him say that, he waved his hands repeatedly and said, “No, I will buy tickets in the next two days…”
“The organizer will give me tickets. Besides, I don’t have many friends here, so I just want to make one more friend.”
“But…”
“That’s it, it’s settled. I’ll come over to deliver the tickets to you tomorrow.”
Looking at Xiao LiangYu’s back, Li JinCheng only felt that he was different from what he had imagined. He was modest, friendly, and he didn’t have the airs that most celebrities should have.
After school was over the next afternoon, Xiao LiangYu arrived as planned. Knowing that Li JinCheng had nothing to do later, he then invited Li JinCheng to dinner.
“I really don’t have any friends here, and I can’t find anyone to eat with me…”
Li JinCheng knew that he was born and raised abroad. Seeing Xiao LiangYu’s disappointed expression, he couldn’t bear it. After thinking about it, he said: “Courtesy demands reciprocity. You gave me tickets. So, I’ll invite you to dinner?”
Xiao LiangYu’s character seemed a bit childish. After hearing what Li JinCheng said, he quickly smiled, nodded and said: “Okay!”

After thinking it this way, he couldn’t help but think of He ZhenXuan. In addition to not being talkative, he was also extremely low-key. From the time Li JinCheng met him until now, he had only seen him driving a black European sedan.
It was not known if there was a connection between them, but as soon as Li JinCheng thought of He ZhenXuan, He ZhenXuan sent him a text message asking him if he had arrived home.
Li JinCheng rarely took the initiative to send him text messages. Firstly, he was afraid of disturbing his work. Secondly, he had an awkward personality. He was often still thinking about the content of the text message and an hour might have passed, so in the end, he ended up not sending it.
He ZhenXuan sent text messages at a relatively fixed time and the content was simple. He usually asked if he had eaten and if he was tired or not.
But even so, Li JinCheng would still feel the sweetness in his heart every time he received a text message from him.
“Girlfriend?”
Seeing Li JinCheng turn to look at him after sending the text message, Xiao LiangYu coughed lightly and said, “You smiled very happily.”
Happy feelings are probably one of the most uncontrollable emotions in the world. He heard the teasing in Xiao LiangYu’s tone. The temperature on Li JinCheng’s face quickly rose.
Fortunately, Xiao LiangYu knew when to stop. Even if Li JinCheng had a certain good impression of him, he would not touch his privacy because of that.
The car stopped at the door of the western restaurant. After finding that he had already reserved a seat, Li JinCheng looked at him in surprise and said, “Did you know I’ll come?”
Xiao LiangYu stood at the door and signed his name, and said “ah”. He said, “Because you look very kind.”
He was the type of person that Li JinCheng had never interacted with before. He was well-informed and humorous. After finishing the meal, both of them seemed to be a bit reluctant to part with.
“You don’t ask me to come in and sit down?”
Xiao LiangYu was lying on the car window looking at him when he was talking. He was wearing a light blue cotton shirt. The color and texture would have made his temperament very soft. But because both of them had drunk a little before, the alcohol probably started to play its role at this time, making Xiao LiangYu’s eyes lazy. It was just a gesture of pushing his hair back, but inadvertently showing a hint of romance.
Li JinCheng admitted that Xiao LiangYu like this was very charming, but he (LJC) was slow to warm up by nature. Even if he was a good friend, he would consciously keep a distance from them. Therefore, after Xiao LiangYu said this, he flatly refused, only saying that his place is not very convenient.
“Yeah…”
Xiao LiangYu looked a little regretful, but soon he returned to normal. He waved his hand, and then said: “Remember to come to my concert then!”
The engine of a sports car always makes a loud noise. Li JinCheng turned around, thinking that with Xiao LiangYu’s talent and personality, he was really an interesting person.
Xiao LiangYu’s solo concert was held this weekend. Li JinCheng didn’t have many friends, so the person he first thought of was Zou JunKai.
But Zou JunKai only liked rock music, but thinking that his girlfriend’s best friend liked it, he grabbed one of Li JinCheng’s tickets without saying a word.
Li JinCheng looked at him speechlessly, and had no choice but to give up the idea of inviting He HaoYin to attend the concert with him.
On Friday afternoon, after leaving Song LiuBai’s studio and having dinner, Li JinCheng drove to the concert hall where Xiao LiangYu would hold a concert.
His seat was very close to the stage and belonged to the VIP area. When he arrived, the best friend of Zou JunKai’s girlfriend was already sitting there, wearing a dress and elegant makeup. Li JinCheng smiled politely at her and didn’t say much.
Before the concert started, Li JinCheng looked back and found that there were no empty seats in the concert hall, which could accommodate thousands of people. Thinking that Xiao LiangYu would become even more popular in the future, he couldn’t help but sigh with sentiment.
Unlike the concerts of most celebrities, which were a carnival for a group of people, the concert was more private and it is a kind of ultimate enjoyment that belongs to oneself.
The reason why Li JinCheng liked violin pieces was that they could express the passionate feeling better than other instruments. Even if he was depressed, as long as he heard this type of music, he could empathize with it and be full of life with more expectations and passion.
Unlike when he (XLY) was in contact with him in private, Xiao LiangYu on the stage appeared more reserved and focused, and at the same time he had a noble aura lingering around him.
It was this kind of aura that made the black mist around him become even thinner.
Li JinCheng guessed that he (XLY) regarded music as his life, which could be seen from the expression on his face.
Coupled with interaction, Xiao LiangYu’s concert ended after nearly two hours. When Li JinCheng was about to leave, he received a call from Xiao LiangYu. He wanted to invite Li JinCheng to his next celebration party.
Thinking that he didn’t know the people around him and had never attended such an occasion, Li JinCheng refused.
“JinCheng, you said the other day that we are already friends.”
Because these people in the arts rarely quarrel with others like people in the workplace, they always seem a little ignorant of the world, or willful.
But Li JinCheng was particularly tolerant in this regard. When he heard Xiao LiangYu acting coquettishly with him, he just followed his instructions and walked backstage.
Xiao LiangYu’s celebration party was held at a famous star-rated hotel in Hong Kong Island. Except for the reporters at the door, if one divided it in terms of temperament, there were only two types of people attending the party.
One was similar to Xiao LiangYu, with a cultured air exuding from their body. Although it was not obvious, it had been immersed into their bones.
The other type was in sharp contrast to Xiao LiangYu. They were outgoing and arrogant, which could be seen from their dress.
However, this group of people had one thing in common, that was, they were unanimously cold and arrogant.
Li JinCheng had always been self-aware. Seeing Xiao LiangYu busy, he just hid in the side to drink and eat desserts, or chat casually with people he didn’t know next to him.
He was not good at drinking, and he had enough self-control. He felt it was almost enough, and said goodbye to Xiao LiangYu, who was already tipsy.
“Li JinCheng, you are different from what I imagined.”
Xiao LiangYu pulled him and the heat sprayed on the side of Li JinCheng’s neck.
Li JinCheng smiled and tilted his head, thinking that he thought of him(XLY) the same way.
Once he got home and took a shower, the alcohol finally started to take effect.
Although he was not drunk, at times like this, Li JinCheng would easily feel sad and lonely.
He had never missed He ZhenXuan as much as he did at this moment. Later, he sent a text message to He ZhenXuan, saying that ‘I went to the concert today and I hope you would be by my side at that time’.
The tone was slightly sappy, but Li JinCheng would only let himself go at this time. Not long after, He ZhenXuan replied to his text message, saying that ‘I would be with you in the future’.
After Li JinCheng read the text message, he put the phone aside with satisfaction.
He actually didn’t quite understand what love is. For him, when he felt lonely, it was enough to have someone to stay by his side patiently.
Li JinCheng was getting ready to go to bed when he received a call from Zou JunKai. He couldn’t help but feel a little curious when he thought that the two had just met at school a few hours ago.
“JinCheng, where are you? I have something to ask you.”
Zou JunKai’s tone was full of drunkenness, but no matter how Li JinCheng asked him, he still refused to tell the reason.
Li JinCheng had no choice but to make an appointment with him at Starbucks near the community.
Zou JunKai arrived earlier than him. When Li JinCheng arrived, he was lying on the table with two cups of coffee in front of him.
“What happened?”
“My girlfriend is pregnant.”
Li JinCheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Wouldn’t that be better?”
As he spoke, he patted Zou JunKai on the shoulder and said, “Congratulations on your dream coming true!”
“But I didn’t expect it to be so early…”
After hearing what he said, Li JinCheng realized that this person had not grown up at all.
He had a general goal and was simply working hard, but in fact, he was not prepared accordingly, nor did he have the awareness he should have when taking on that responsibility.
Li JinCheng didn’t like discussing the so-called life with drunk people. In boredom, he raised his head and looked around.
But very quickly, he froze in place.
He and Zou JunKai were sitting near the bar. In the opposite corner of the hall on the right side, Xiao LiangYu and He ZhenXuan sat with their backs to him.
These two people, one said ‘I’ll invite you to dinner in a few days’, and the other said he would come back tomorrow.
Looking at the two’s overlapping hands on the table, at that moment, Li JinCheng almost thought that he would smash the cup in his hand into pieces.
They got caught in the act!
Thank you for the update!
Wow, what a plot twist! Now it appears LJC meeting XLY isn’t such a coincidence…??
Overlapping hands?????????? God what theee
