099. I'll sing when you call.
Ten minutes later, He Jin, who had changed his clothes, walked out quickly with his school bag on his back. Not far away, the car lights flashed as if greeting him.
He Jin got into the car and handed over the hot paper cup in his hand. "Here."
Qin Yang: "What?"
Seeing him, He Jin suddenly recalled K's "Kung Fu" and his body heated up. He hurriedly said, "It's for you." Then he lowered his head to fasten his seatbelt — F * ck, He Jin! Don't think about things you shouldn't think about!
Qin Yang opened the lid of the cup and a strong smell of hot chocolate wafted out, filling his nose with sweetness. He smiled. Just because of this small gesture, the pain he suffered last night seemed to have lightened a lot.
Qin Yang secretly scolded himself, "So cheap." He foolishly brought the cup to his mouth and took a sip. "Oh —!" F * ck, it's hot!
He Jin heard Qin Yang hiss, but the moment he looked over, he saw Qin Yang retract his tongue and pretend to be calm as he put the cup on the side. But his slightly twisted expression betrayed him, making him feel both angry and amused.
Qin Yang started the car and asked, "Why did you give me hot chocolate?"
He Jin touched his nose. "Ahem, there's an event in the store. Today, there's a 20% discount on hot chocolate, free for employees …"
Qin Yang curled his lips and joked, "I thought you gave me this because you have a meaning." He took the rose he just bought from the crack of the car door on his left and casually handed it over. "Here, courtesy demands reciprocity. A strange girl on the side of the road gave it to me. It's yours. Happy Valentine's Day."
He Jin's mouth twitched. Was it really a gift from a passerby? But to dare to give a rose, he was really bold.
If he didn't know he was Shang Huo, he would probably think too much about Qin Yang's action and feel uneasy.
He Jin was angry again. He remembered that at the beginning, it was this guy who forced him to call him "husband" in the game, but in reality, he played the role of a warm-hearted junior … How did he look at me all this time? Oh, it was really embarrassing …
By the way, he still remembered that once when they went jogging, this guy asked him what kind of game "God and Demon" was. The other party's curious expression was comparable to that of a movie king. What kind of sick joke was that? And she had even foolishly and earnestly explained it to him like a clown …
He Jin wanted to return the flowers. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have bought hot chocolate for Qin Yang. Actually, employees could enjoy free coffee and drinks in the shop, but they had to pay the employee price to take them out.
At this moment, a familiar ringtone rang —
"My imperfect dream, you accompany me to think. My imperfect courage, you say it's braver …"
It was Qin Yang's bracelet. He Jin was startled. His hand that was about to return the rose froze.
Qin Yang picked up the phone and projected a screen, revealing a few young and beautiful female faces. They were his 3D classmates.
"Qin Yang …"
"Wow! I'll take it! "
"Handsome, are you driving?"
The background looked like a private room in a KTV, with bright lights and many electronic candles.
"Where is it?" A head squeezed in from the side. It was Zhang Xiao. She shouted at the camera, "Room 34B, Money Locker, East Street, Anmen. Get over here!"
Qin Yang: "What are you doing? It's so late!"
Zhang Xiao: "What else? It's a classmate gathering. Xia Hongxi and She Yan'er are there." The wristband now displayed the location of the other party.
Qin Yang: "Hongxi is back?"
Zhang Xiao: "Yeah, he's flying back to America tomorrow. Aren't you driving now? Your location isn't far from us. You'll be there in a few minutes. Hurry up."
Qin Yang: "I'm not coming. I'm with a friend. Sorry, I'll treat everyone to a meal next time."
"Oh ~ ~ ~ Friend ~ ~" There was a sudden uproar from behind. Someone asked, "What friend? Handsome Qin has a girlfriend? Oh ~ ~ ~ "
Qin Yang glanced at He Jin, his eyes dark. He turned back and smiled. "Yeah."
He Jin's heart tightened. "You …"
Qin Yang winked at He Jin, meaning to say that he was lying to them. But He Jin knew that it wasn't just an excuse. He was a little confused about what was real and what was fake.
When the other side heard Qin Yang admit it, the uproar became even louder. They screamed for him to bring the person over for them to see. He vaguely heard people saying things like "broken heart" and "someone broke up."
He Jin whispered, "Go ahead. You're high school classmates, right? It's a rare classmate gathering, and they're all calling you. It doesn't seem right if you don't go. Drop me at the subway station. I'll go back to your house first. I know the way anyway. "
Qin Yang: "How can I let you go back alone?"
The people on the other side of the wristband were still shouting Qin Yang's name in unison.
Zhang Xiao smiled and came over to ask, "What do you say? Whether you come or not, we're all waiting for you. Is your girlfriend shy?"
"She's not my girlfriend. I was just joking." Qin Yang pointed the wristband camera at He Jin. He Jin instinctively covered his face with his hand. "Do you see it? It's a guy. He's my college classmate." He was very sleepy now. It was good to sleep in the car for a while.
The people on the other side instantly sighed, but they still warmly invited him. "It's okay. If your friend doesn't mind, come and sit with us. We haven't seen you in a long time."
He Jin was in a dilemma. He didn't want Qin Yang to miss those activities because of him. "How about, how about I accompany you … I'll wait for you in the car."
What was this? Qin Yang frowned and replied to the urging classmate. "I'm coming. I'm coming."
After hanging up, Qin Yang turned at the traffic light ahead and drove in the direction of Anmen East Street. When they arrived, Qin Yang pulled He Jin out of the car. "Say hello to them and we'll come down."
He Jin had no choice but to follow Qin Yang. The KTV room was in full swing, and the music was deafening. When a group of people saw Qin Yang arrive, they instantly became noisy and shouted, "Drink as punishment." They were young men and women, all wearing famous brands and had extraordinary temperaments …
He Jin was only taken care of at the beginning. Zhang Xiao had seen him and even chatted with him for a while, but he was soon forgotten by a group of strangers.
Qin Yang was surrounded by a group of people. Even in his circle, he was so dazzling … He Jin suddenly felt that it was inconceivable that such a person would like him.
Qin Yang was a little hot-headed after being punished with two glasses of alcohol. Everyone asked him to sing. He sat down in the middle of the sofa in the room and suddenly thought of He Jin. He stretched his neck to look for the familiar figure in the crowd.
He Jin had already been squeezed to the side and was staring at Qin Yang in a daze. Suddenly, he was locked onto by the other party's gaze. In the darkness, two pairs of eyes intertwined and flashed with sparks.
"He Jin." Qin Yang called his name loudly in the midst of the noise. He reached out and pushed the people beside him away, making an empty seat. "Come here!"
Just as Qin Yang said, if no one paid attention to him, he really was a person with a super low presence. Even if he sat next to the other party, he would only become a shadow that set off the light.
Qin Yang handed him the tablet that his classmate had handed over. "Choose a song."
He Jin: "I can't sing."
Qin Yang tilted his head and said, "You choose. I'll sing."
He Jin: "…"
In the bustling KTV, everyone whispered into each other's ears. However, Qin Yang's action just now made He Jin feel a sense of ambiguity.
He Jin thought of Qin Yang's bracelet ringtone and chose "Imperfect Child." This was a song that he especially liked eight years ago. It was very nostalgic. He didn't know if Qin Yang used this ringtone because he remembered that he said it. Until now … Perhaps he was thinking too much, but no matter the reason, he really wanted to listen to it now.
A quiet piano prelude sounded. Qin Yang held the microphone. "When my smile is as bright as the sun …"
When he sang the first line, He Jin was stunned. Just like Qin Yang's voice, his voice was very pleasant to listen to.
The people around him burst into applause, but Qin Yang didn't seem to hear it. He stared at the screen and sang gently. "The whole world is waiting for me to fly higher, but you feel sorry for my little wings …"
He Jin didn't dare look at him. He also looked at the screen and the lyrics.
Qin Yang: "When I have to be like a perfect child and satisfy everyone's expectations, you seem to especially admire me when I make mistakes and act foolishly …"
Every line sang the hope in his heart back then. However, the "you" in the song didn't exist. It was an illusory shadow, a shadow that opposed his mother. It was also the love he longed to have …
Qin Yang: "When I have an imperfect dream, you accompany me to think. When I have an imperfect courage, you say I'm braver …"
But at that moment, the empty space in his heart seemed to be filled up bit by bit by Qin Yang's singing.
When the song ended, He Jin's eyes felt a little sore. He blinked. He didn't know if it was because he was sleepy or something else, but he didn't want to admit that it was because he was touched.
The students by the side all cheered and asked Qin Yang to continue singing. Qin Yang waved his hand and stood up with a smile. "No, my friend still has something to do. We have to go." He pulled He Jin up as a shield.
"Aiya, what a killjoy …"
"It's only ten o 'clock. It's still early!"
"If your friend has something to do, I can get my chauffeur to send him!"
…
"If I really have something to do, I'll make a move first. Next time I come, I'll eat everything in advance. Come in and eat." Qin Yang pushed He Jin out the door. In the small space where he was surrounded by people, he especially enjoyed this hug.
Just as he was about to push the door open, a beautiful curly-haired girl suddenly appeared and blocked the door. "Wait!"
Everyone paused. It was unknown who whistled first, but the atmosphere instantly became lively again. "Oh ~ ~ ~"
He Jin suddenly had a bad premonition. He broke free from Qin Yang's hand and dodged to the side. Sure enough, the beautiful girl stared at Qin Yang in a daze and bravely confessed, "Qin Yang, I like you!"
"Good job, She Yan 'er!"
"You finally said it, hahaha!"
"Oh, oh, oh! Be together! "
"Be together, be together …"
The girl named She Yan 'er blinked her big eyes and said loudly, "If you don't have a girlfriend, please go out with me!"
He Jin nervously clenched his fists when he saw this scene.
Qin Yang smirked and asked in return, "Are you guys playing truth or dare?"
The girl's expression stiffened. He Jin guessed that she was really confessing, but Qin Yang's answer was very clever. He didn't directly reject her. Instead, he jokingly said this. If the girl understood, she would probably give in.
Sure enough, She Yan 'er smiled bitterly.
