Chapter 233 233 Come to Beijing and gather together

After the last separation in Jiangjing, Bai Shaoqi and Song Min have not seen Bai Qian again.

They once thought that maybe Bai Qian would return to the Bai family and meet Bai Qian at the Bai family, or meet at Jiangjing University...

 Any location, except the building of Jiangjing Conservatory of Music.

Ji Mulan tried to develop Bai Qian in an all-round way at that time. He asked her to pick up a sketch pen when she was three years old. Later, she really had no talent. Ji Mulan tried to let her learn piano and painting...

 The two of them finally adjusted their mentality and deliberately forgot about the college entrance examination.

 But he didn’t expect to see Bai Zian when he was unprepared.

“Sister, sister,” the girls around Bai Shaoqi didn’t dare to talk to Bai Qian, so they communicated with Lu Xiaohan, “Are you going to the third floor?”

  The elevator door closed, Lu Xiaohan put down his hand and smiled at her: "Yes."

“Master,” the girl clasped her hands together, “What do you study?”

 It’s about musical instruments.

 Lu Xiaohan’s thinking was too clear: “Director.”

Hearing these two words, the girl even doubted that she was not knowledgeable enough to have seen the instrument "director", nor did she doubt that Lu Xiaohan was not a student of Jiangyin, "Huh?"

"Ding-"

At the third floor, the elevator slowly stopped and the door opened.

The girl, Bai Shaoqi and Song Min reacted. When they opened it, they saw two landscape paintings on the corner of the third floor, facing the white wall, which were somewhat yellowish and covered with glass.

 There is a guzheng model in the middle.

The entire third floor is carpeted, and the carpet is spread along the corridor to the elevator entrance.

 Quiet and elegant.

 Lao Hu was standing at the entrance of the elevator. When he saw Bai Qian, he smiled and said, "Classmate Bai."

 “Mr. Hu.” Bai Qian walked out.

 “Bye.” Lu Xiaohan had never seen Lao Hu before. After saying goodbye to the girl, he followed Bai Xian out.

The elevator door closed again, and the girl turned around and said excitedly to Bai Shaoqi: "This is the legendary Shaman Lou recording studio, and have you seen the two paintings outside? They are the founder of our guzheng department. Qin Jiu’s authentic work!”

There are not many people who can come to this building on weekdays. The girl can attend the special training class for famous teachers during the summer vacation, so she naturally has some wealth, but she has never entered the third floor.

I have only seen photos of the two paintings countless times on the Jiangyin Forum. This is the first time I have seen them in person.



Bai Shaoqi looked in the direction of the elevator door with vacant eyes.

 The eyes have no focus.

Third floor...Why can Bai Zian go in?

   **

 The third floor.

 Lu Xiaohan is looking at these two landscape paintings, which are very freehand paintings.

 One picture overlooks the city tower, and the other picture is a long pavilion and green mountains.

 There is no inscribed poem and no inscription.

Qin Jiu's painting skills are not very good, but they are very well preserved. These two paintings are also his early works and were placed on the third floor by Jiang Yin.

Lu Xiaohan knew about Qin Jiu, but she also learned that he had two other paintings.

While she was looking at the painting, Bai Qian and Lao Hu were standing aside waiting for her.

 After Lu Xiaohan finished reading, Lao Hu took them to the vocal recording studio.

When they arrived at the recording studio, Yan Lu was recording songs in the room wearing black headphones. Through the glass, she could be seen standing in front of Mai, her eyes slightly closed and her profile bright.

 Dean Jian and Zhao Jianxin were tuning outside.

Just after recording a section, Yan Lu was listening to the playback on the headphones.

Dean Jian raised his hand to say hello to Lu Xiaohan, and then spoke to Bai Qian. He held a black pen in his right hand and drew a random paragraph on the notebook with the tip of the pen: "I will re-record this here later."

Bai Qian took a look and nodded.

“Have you had any ideas for new songs lately?” Dean Jian closed the notebook.

 In regards to Yan Lu’s new song, Dean Jian is more positive than anyone else.

 “Almost.” Bai Zian said, but in fact she didn’t move much at all.

After the two of them finished speaking, Lu Xiaohan held up his mobile phone and said, "Grandpa Jian, can I send this?"

Dean Jian looked over and saw the photos of the two paintings at the elevator entrance. "Okay, send it quickly. You haven't sent a video for more than half a month."

 Because the third floor is not open to the general public, there are few paintings and pictures exposed.

The last time Lu Xiaohan posted a video was the last time.

She posts videos infrequently, but each video is about ten minutes long. The last video was a Chinese-style graduation photo that took four months to complete. It was a big project and a big production.

 Netizens are still satisfied with what they saw.

Dean Jian is also one of them, but he always urges her in front of him.

 “It’s quick.” Lu Xiaohan learned quickly.

Dean Jian put the notebook on the table next to him and suddenly thought of something, "Do you want to take some photos of Jiang Yin?"

"Jiang Yin..." Lu Xiaohan paused. When he saw the two paintings when he got out of the elevator, he had a special thought.

Jiangyin is a school with a rich history.

 Two people are talking.

Lao Hu, who was holding a bottle of milk next to him and gave it to the only child present, shook his hands. He could understand Bai Zian, after all, he had guessed Bai Zian's identity at that time.

Can-

Who is this girl who calls Jian Zhongyou "Grandpa Jian" when we meet?

 He subconsciously clenched the milk in his hand and looked at Lu Xiaohan's back.

Lu Xiaohan was thinking about the possibility of a new video. When he turned around, he saw Lao Hu and Jiang He holding the upper half of the milk carton and the other holding the lower half.

She was surprised, should this be given or not?

 Lao Hu followed Lu Xiaohan's gaze and saw that he was still holding the milk, and quickly let go, "Kid, you drink."

   **

Bai Qian and Yan Lu hadn’t seen each other for a long time. After recording, they had lunch at a private restaurant next to Jiang Yin.

Yan Lu can now be recognized at any time when walking on the street, and it is not as easy as before.

Sister Xin did not disturb the gathering of these people, and only waited outside for Yan Lu to finish eating.

When they came out, Sister Xin greeted Bai Qian and others before driving Yan Lu back to the hotel.

Yan Lu has to attend a party in the evening and has a very busy schedule.

"I just made an agreement with them at the company," Sister Xin sat in the driver's seat and told Yan Lu about the recent arrangements. "These songs have been included in the album "Gambling and Wine" and they have signed up for the Chinese Music Award."

Yan Lu’s TV series and songs have blossomed this year, and the company will naturally not let go of this popularity.

Yan Lu took off his mask and bucket hat, picked up the script on the car and opened it. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and said, "These songs are all released separately."

 The number of songs barely meets the requirements.

"Yes, but the organizer called me personally and told me," Sister Xin sighed, "the music scene has declined in recent years, and the influence of the Chinese Music Awards has also become much smaller. You are their special guest."

 The entire music scene is showing a decline, and we can no longer see the scenes of gods fighting.

The person Bai Jian suddenly appeared in the music scene, attracting the attention of many dedicated musicians. This person "Bai Jian" has no company, no marketing, or even previous works. It seems that he appeared just for Yan Lu.

 Set off an unprecedented trend in the music world.

 The music scene, which has been silent for so long, is finally getting lively again.

 From gambling to Another Autumn to Cold Times to the latest reunion...each song has its own unique style, coupled with Dean Jian's divine arrangement.

　　Not to mention the best lyrics, composition and arrangement, the song of the year cannot be any other song except "Han Shi Xu" which has dominated the charts abroad for two months.

   **

  Shanhai Apartment, 302.

 Jiang Fuli rarely took a nap in the afternoon, and it was already dusk when he woke up.

He was wearing fluffy pajamas and opened the curtains. The room was dark with no lights on. Everything in the house was cast in shadow. The downstairs of the community was also extremely quiet. Because it was summer vacation, there were almost no people in sight. His fine black hair was messy. placed on the forehead.

The room was empty, the sky outside was hazy, and the surroundings were silent.

Jiang Fuli was in a rare relaxed state, leaning against the window, dignified and distant, watching the street lights in the community begin to light up.

About two minutes later, he picked up the mobile phone on the bedside, opened WeChat, wanted to ask Bai Zian if he was back, and opened the door to the room.

As soon as the door opened, crystal lamps poured down on him.

 In the hall, Jiang He sat on the carpet, lowering his head to piece together the puzzle.

Bai Qian sat cross-legged next to him and handed him the puzzle pieces he needed. Her white skirt was spread on the carpet, and various poppies bloomed into a sea of ​​flowers.

Her right wrist was resting on her knees casually, with a book on her knees. She held a puzzle piece in her left hand and threw it to Jiang He.

Under the crystal light, the whole figure is covered with a layer of dizzy light, with a lazy posture.

 It seems that the years are quiet and peaceful.

Bai Zian turned around and saw Jiang Fuli standing at the door. He slowly turned over a page and said, "Are you awake?"

"Well," Jiang Fuli walked towards them and squatted beside her, dignified and elegant, looking down at the book she was reading, "Why didn't you call me when you got back?"

It was rare for Bai Qian not to read the literature. What he read was the original work of Don Quixote, which he borrowed from Jiangda Library.

"It's rare for you to sleep for so long."

 “I’m really busy these days.” Jiang Fuli said.

 There were times when he was busy before, but at that time he seemed to have nothing else to do except being busy.

Bai Zian raised his head, picked up a candied haws next to the mobile phone and handed it to him.

Jiang Fuli looked down at the red candied haws, and hesitated, "For me?"

"Of course," Bai Qian rested his elbows on his knees casually and rested his palms on his chin, "I've finished eating like the bird."

She and Lu Xiaohan bought this at the snack street next to Jiangyin at noon.

Jiang Fuli had never eaten these before. He pinched the lower end of the candied haws with his slender fingers and asked, "Do you like it?"

 “General.” Bai Zian said casually.

Jiang Fuli glanced at her and didn't ask any more questions.

He stood up with the candied haws on his hands, ready to go back to his room and take a shower first. "What do you want to eat tonight?"

 “Shrimp bar.”

Bai Zian didn't think much about it, so he said it casually.

Jiang Fuli nodded and went back to the room. The candied haws of sugar-coated sugarcoat was overly sweet and had a strong taste of saccharin. It was the tenderness hidden in the dusk.

   **

Yang Lin was on the train early the next morning.

Jiangjing is far away from Xiangcheng, and it takes more than ten hours to transfer by plane.

 She will take the train for two days.

Tang Ming and Ning Xiao set off one day later than her.

On the birthday of Mr. Xu’s family, gifts from political and business people kept coming in and out of the Xu family starting at seven in the morning.

 Cars drive to Xingjiang District from all directions.

 When Bai Shaoqi took the Yin family car early in the morning, from Yunxiao District to Chang'an District, she encountered several rare limited edition cars and some special license plates.

She has never seen such a scene.

“Auntie, what happened today?”

Song Min is not here today, and there are only the driver of the Yin family and Mrs. Song in the car.

Mrs. Song heard something from Mr. Yin, and she looked away, "Today, it seems that people from Xingjiang District are holding a happy event." As for which family, she didn't say, and Mr. Yin would not mention it to her. The class gap was too big. big.

 There was a black business car in front of them and passed their car.

Bai Shaoqi couldn't help but take a second look. It looked very much like the car with a Xiangcheng license plate she saw in Beicheng. It belonged to the person Bai Qian knew.

 “What’s wrong?” Mrs. Song asked her.

"It's okay." Bai Shaoqi looked back and shook her head.

 How did this car appear in Jiangjing? It is easy for ordinary people to buy a car, but the license plate number in Jiangjing is not easy to photograph.

She lowered her head and opened her phone.

 Luxury cars were dispatched at the same time. This big movement also attracted everyone's attention. The last time Yunxiao District cracked down, major marketing accounts caused a wave of enthusiasm that has not stopped. Today, these cars are dispatched, which has caused speculation among marketing accounts.

As soon as Bai Shaoqi opened the video account, there was a message from the marketing account—

  【What happened to Jiang Jing today? All luxury cars dispatched? 】

The video is a collection of seven or eight luxury cars pouring into an old street. Bai Shaoqi saw the name of the street—

 Changping Street.

A bunch of people below are speculating that the most liked message is this one—

I lost my way today: [[Picture] Don’t look at it, today is the birthday of an old man, and the threshold is at the level of the managing director of ZTE]

IP shows Jiang Jing.

   **

 No. 29, Chang'an Street.

 After Xu Jueling paid homage to the old man, he came back and changed into a set of clothes to prepare for the guests.

 “She really won’t come?” He changed into a robe.

"Well," Gao Yan was helpless. She was wearing a cheongsam that fit her figure and holding a sapphire teacup in her hand. "I told her three times."

Gao Yan thought about it and called Bai Zian.

“Auntie?” Bai Zian had already arrived at the station.

 She stood at the entrance with a lot of traffic, waiting for Yang Lin.

Gao Yan's voice was very gentle, "Today we have hired a chef from Kang Yulou. My ancestor was the imperial chef in the palace. The snacks and dishes he makes are delicious. You can just come and have something to eat in my yard. You won't see anyone." others."

"No," Bai Zian declined, "I'm waiting for my classmate."

"Classmates can come too... Okay, you guys have fun." Gao Yan hung up the phone, and she and Xu Jueling looked at each other. Gao Yan had seen Bai Qian at least, and Xu Jueling had not seen anyone.

 He was not as familiar with Jiang Fuli as Gao Yan, so he did not dare to meet Bai Qian rashly.

 Outside the Xu family gate.

The Mu family’s car also stopped.

Mu Yining was wearing smart clothes. On her left stood a young boy, and on her right were Ji Shaojun and Ren Wanxuan.

The Xujia gate tower is very high, and the two stone lions outside are very imposing.

Two rows of black-clad bodyguards stood on both sides, their alert looks leaving no doubt that they could take out a gun from their pockets.

 The large open space at the door was filled with cars.

 Grand and solemn.

 Ren Wanxuan's eyes fell on the car outside, she couldn't help but take out her mobile phone and secretly took a few pictures.

Mu Yining saw it from the corner of his eye and shook his head secretly.

The waiter brought a few people to the central hall and said very politely: "The central hall is full of young people. There is a rest room next to it. Miss Mu, please take a good rest first."

 Speaking, he stretched out his hand to give Mu Yining a list and half a map of the Xu family's old residence, which were all open to the public today.

This is the first time Ren Wanxuan has entered such a large garden. In the past, she had only seen it at tourist attractions.

“This is my brother.” Mu Yining introduced Ji Shaojun to the middle-aged man next to him.

 The middle-aged man stretched out his hand towards Ji Shaojun.

   **

 Jiangjing Station.

Bai Qian waited at the station for an hour. It was almost ten o'clock before Yang Lin left the station. She changed trains and then transferred to an EMU.

Yang Lin only wears school uniforms all year round and an old black suitcase, which is mostly filled with books.

She was still wearing a long T-shirt, covering her wrists and arms as usual. Her thick hair on her forehead covered her dark eyes. Standing in the crowd, she had almost no presence.

 This seems to be her innate talent, which is to erase her own existence to the greatest extent.

 “Let’s go.” Bai Zian took her suitcase.

 She has always been straightforward.

Yang Lin has already chosen a place and will live in Mingfeng District before the start of school.

Bai Zian put the suitcase in the trunk of the taxi and motioned for Yang Lin to get in the car.

 The taxi driver was very enthusiastic, “Little girl, where are you going?”

“Jiang Da.” Bai Qian and Yang Lin were sitting in the back seat.

"You're here for tourism..." The taxi driver thought they were going to Jiangjing University to check in, and introduced Jiangjing's delicacies to Bai Qian and the others along the way, "You know the old street, it's an Internet celebrity street, there are too many people, so I don't recommend it to you. go…"

 Arrived at Jiangjing Avenue.

Bai Zian scanned the QR code, took Yang Lin's suitcase and got off the car.

Lu Xiaohan had been waiting for them at the Jiangda Gate for a long time. She was holding a parasol and waving to them from afar, "Sister Xian, Yang Lin, here!"

The three of them walked towards the gate, and Bai Zian took out his campus card and entered.

The driver looked at the rearview mirror, his eyes almost popping out of his head: "It's incredible, all the students at Jiang University are so good-looking now..."

   **

Lu Xiaohan put away his umbrella when he saw them coming.

She still had two glasses of ice lemonade in her hand, so she plugged one end of the straw, inserted one bottle into it, and handed it to Yang Lin, "Drink first, let's go take the school bus."

 These people now have a good handle on Yang Lin.

“Is it Nanmeiyuan?” Lu Xiaohan asked her as she got on the school bus.

Nanmeiyuan is located in Nanmei District, which is also a freshman area. It can be reached by taking the school bus.

 Bai Xian glanced at WeChat and saw a message sent by Principal Shi, which was written in No. 407, Dormitory Building No. 2, Nanmeiyuan.

Yang Lin also signed an agreement with Jiang University in advance. She chose the Department of Biology. After knowing that she was coming, Bai Qian asked Shi Yu if he could move into the dormitory in advance.

Jiang University has a bunch of students staying on campus every summer vacation, but they have to move to the same building.

Principal Shi made all the arrangements for her.

Yang Lin was probably the first among them to enter the school dormitory. She was still confused when she saw Bai Zian asking her to take out her ID card, register at the Academic Affairs Office, and then go and get the quilt issued by the school.

 Finally, I went to a small supermarket to buy daily necessities.

Yang Lin stood in front of the checkout counter and scanned the QR code.

“Classmate, okay.” The cashier handed over a large bag of things.

Yang Lin came out carrying the bag. The sunlight outside shone on her eyes. It was not warm, but unusually dazzling, making her feel unreal.

Bai Zian walked slowly behind them, answering Jiang Fuli's call.

"Have you received the call?" Jiang Fuli's voice was a little low, and the sound of the instrument on his end could still be heard.

Ming Dongheng wanted to stay today, but Bai Qian refused.

Bai Qian opened the folding fan with one hand and placed it on her forehead to block the sun. "She has entered the dormitory. Why are you still busy and haven't left?"

 She knew that there was a banquet at the Xu family today.

“There’s no rush,” Jiang Fuli said in a calm tone. He put the things in his hands aside, “I don’t really want to go.”

Bai Qian followed Yang Lin and Lu Xiaohan and smiled, "What if you don't go? You can come back early in the evening."

“Well,” Jiang Fuli’s voice was very forced, “That’s okay too.”

 Bai Xian hung up the phone, took a photo of the school, opened WeChat and sent it to him. On WeChat, Tang Ming sent a message to the "Xiangcheng Team" group -

  【Ning Xiao and I are on the plane, please turn off the phone first. 】

 These people from Xiangcheng No. 1 Middle School are about to arrive.

   **

evening.

 Cars drove away one after another in front of Xu's house, changing the venue for the dinner.

The Mu family drove two cars today. Mu Yining was talking to a man in a suit and leather collar. Mu Yining called him "Mr. Xiao" and Ji Shaojun was standing next to her.

“Mr. Chen is coming back,” Mr. Xiao said to her. “If you want to find him, you should find him as soon as possible.”

Mu Yining thanked him, "Thank you."

 Mr. Xiao nodded and smiled, "Mu Zhao helped Bingwen, that's right, but...what are you going to do, little brother?"

"Let's hold a ceremony first and give him the Yunxiao branch directly," Mu Yining was already planning, but it seemed to be very difficult now. Ji Shaojun was new to the country and only showed up for the first time today, "When you arrive, you will be able to I want you to be rewarded."

Mu Yining hopes that the Mu family will work together to get better and better.

Mr. Mu has never held an ancestor recognition ceremony for Ji Shaojun. He only wrote his name hastily. Mu Yining plans to hold one for him formally.

 It will be a good thing for Ji Shaojun and the Mu family to formally introduce Ji Shaojun to others. It will also be a good thing for Ji Shaojun and the Mu family to have a few important people come.

 “Naturally.” Mr. Xiao nodded.

"What happened in Yunxiao District two days ago?" Ji Shaojun was still planning this matter, so she changed the subject.

Hearing this, Mr. Xiao lowered his voice and said, "I have relations with both the Chen and Xu families."

Mu Yining was surprised. What could involve these two families at the same time?

  She tilted her head and looked at the Xu family door.

not far away.

Housekeeper Lou and Xiaojie were waiting by the car for a few people to arrive.

At this moment, a group of people came out of the Xu family gate. In the middle was an unidentifiable young man. Next to him stood a middle-aged man, patting the young man on the shoulder.

Mr. Xiao turned his eyes to the door. When he saw the young man, his eyes were filled with emotion: "That is the Liang family I mentioned to you, but there seems to be another dark horse this year..."

Mu Yining also looked over and thought, "It's him."

 Liang Wuyu.

 The two of them walked towards the car while talking.

Mu Yining had heard of him very early. She was in the laboratory early in her freshman year of high school. Mu Zhao had been in the same class as Liang Wuyu. At that time, someone compared this person with Mu Qing, so she remembered it clearly.

Housekeeper Lou stood behind the two of them. When he heard the voice, he couldn't help but look over. There was a rare eagerness in his eyes, "I heard about him two years ago..."

Ji Shaojun didn’t listen carefully to what they said.

 He was sending a message to Bai Zian.

 Bai Zian’s birthday is coming soon.

Mu Yining and Mr. Xiao were still chatting. Ji Shaojun waited for them to finish speaking before speaking to Mu Yining in a low voice: "I won't be with you anymore. I'm going to find Aji."

Finally took a trip out today, and he happened to see her.

"Aren't you going to the dinner?" Mu Yining asked him.

Ji Shaojun was a little tired, so he paused and refused.

The focus of Mu Yining's introduction to him today was the Xiao family. Knowing that he was not used to such a scene, she did not persuade him to stay, "Okay, let Xiaojie take you there."

Ji Shaojun got into the car.

Xiaojie knew that Bai Zian was in Shanhai Community and drove directly to Jiangjing Avenue. When he saw Jiangjing University, he did not slow down.

Ji Shaojun looked at Bai Qianfa's address on his phone, raised his head, and signaled to Xiaojie that he didn't need to drive forward, "Just stop here."

　　　Everyone is watching at 12:30 recently. I will notify you if the time changes. See you tomorrow~
