Xu Ruotang brought over two more cups of Coke and placed them on the table. Song Shengshi picked up one at random to soothe his mouth.

The lively sound of piano came from this corner, covering the jazz music originally used as background. The person in charge of BGM saw that there was a ready-made one and very sensibly turned off the speaker.

A layered melody sounded in the lobby, melodious and clear, bringing a fresh touch to this complicated world of fame and fortune.

Four Seasons: Spring

Song Shengshi was stunned for a moment. This was indeed his favorite song, and he and Song Qingyue had often played it together before.

The girl playing the piano looked up and looked at him following the rhythm, but in Song Shengshi's eyes her face turned into Song Qingyue's.

Song Shengshi suddenly felt like laughing.

Xu Ruotang should still be trying to find a way to get close to him, just in a different way.

It's a pity that the brother won't be attracted to his sister.

At that moment just now, all he thought about was how long it had been since Song Qingyue last practiced the piano after going to England, and whether she had become rusty about it.

Song Shengshi waved his hand, drank the remaining two sips of Coke, and stood up to leave.

But the moment he stood up, his legs went weak, his vision went dark, and his whole body seemed to be turned upside down.

The piano music continued, but Song Shengshi felt a little uncomfortable. He finally held on to the sofa to steady himself, but before he had time to think more, his body began to get hot.

It feels like the fever caused by the inflammation of the wound before. I have a headache and my body feels hot too.

But it’s different from having a fever. When you have a fever, you feel tired inside and have no motivation at all.

This heat was different, as if something was stirring inside the body and was about to burst out.

Song Shengshi felt the heat gathering, was stunned for a moment, and looked down in disbelief.

A hand rested on Song Shengshi's arm, supporting it gently. A simple crystal silver ornament hung on his wrist.

Song Shengshi looked at the person sticking to his side with red eyes. He wanted to say something, but he could only make ear-red panting sounds.

Hearing that he actually made such a sound, Song Shengshi bit his lips tightly, stifled his breath, and stared at Xu Ruotang.

Xu Ruotang didn't dare to look into Song Shengshi's eyes. She turned her head and forbearingly said, "That old man is crazy. My mother is sick and is in his care. I have no choice but to do it..."

"Go away..." Song Shengshi suppressed the impulse in his body and uttered, "Let me go..."

Xu Ruotang pursed her lips, grabbed Song Shengshi with her hand and pulled him away from the sofa. After Song Shengshi stood up, he felt weak all over and couldn't control himself from falling towards Xu Ruotang.

"The first glass of orange juice contains a muscle relaxant that takes a long time to take effect. The second glass of cola contains an aphrodisiac."

"Xu Tanghu said that I must tie you up tonight so that my mother can survive."

Song Shengshi's head was buzzing: What Xu Tanghu? Didn't they already let Xu Mo deal with the Xu family?

"He provoked someone he shouldn't have provoked, and he got desperate, so he came to me..."

Although Xu Ruotang was explaining, his eyes were not focused, as if he had accepted his fate, and he was exerting force with his hands.

Song Shengshi weighed about 120 pounds in total. His muscles were weak at the moment, and Xu Ruotang pulled and resisted him, but he was unable to resist and was taken out through the side door.

There weren't many people around, with only a few distinguished guests scattered around. I recognized them, but I just thought they were young people who couldn't help but go out to enjoy themselves.

After Hong Zhixiu received the message from Song Shengshi, he immediately looked up to confirm Song Shengshi's location. It was not until the sound of piano rang out and he saw Song Shengshi sitting in the corner enjoying the piano that he looked at each other as a greeting.

He drank a little bit of wine, but not much, and was still sober. The melody in his ears was very familiar. It was a song that Song Shengshi often played when he practiced the violin.

Hong Zhixiu was in high spirits and shook his wine glass to the music. After taking a sip, he wanted to clink glasses with Song Shengshi remotely, and turned around to look at the corner.

"Hey! You got me." Two or three drops of red wine spilled on the corner of Wen Junhui's shirt, and his white shirt was instantly soaked with dark red wine. "You had to explain clearly when Teacher Xu (the teacher in the styling group) scolded me."

Hong Zhixiu opened her eyes wide and looked towards the corner. The girl who was playing the piano and Song Shengshi who was sitting on the sofa nearby and enjoying the performance were gone. The person who was playing the piano had turned into a waiter in waiter's uniform.

The piano music never stopped. There was a side door in the corner that led out. No one knew when the person left, but something was definitely wrong.

Hong Zhixiu pulled Wen Junhui up and was about to walk over there.

“Hey hey hey—where are you going?” Choi Seungcheol called out to them.

"Shengshi is missing. Junni and I will go look for him together." Hong Zhixiu explained quickly, then immediately pulled Wen Junhui over there.

"Shengshi is missing? Let's go look for him too." After hearing Hong Zhixiu's words, the remaining members became a little nervous. Since they had run out of topics to talk about, they simply put down their cups and started looking for him all over the venue.

After listening to Hong Zhixiu's words, Wen Junhui knew that he should only serve as an interpreter, so he followed obediently.

The two men's legs were nearly 140 cm long. They took a few big strides and arrived at the small side door. They looked around and found that Song Shengshi was not there, so they decisively pushed open the side door and walked out.

There is no light in the walkway outside the small side door, and both sides lead to emergency passages.

Going up these stairs is the school’s on-campus hotel - Qingchuan Apartment. All the invited guests, industry-leading professors, and those attending the banquet basically live in this Qingchuan Apartment, including all SVT members, occupying most of the 6th floor.

Hong Zhixiu was still wondering which way to go when Wen Junhui suddenly took a few quick steps to the left, squatted on the ground and picked up something.

"Joshua..."

Wen Junhui's voice trembled a little, "This is Shengshi's group ring."

He displayed the thing in his palm, and following the dim light of the banquet hall, Joshua saw something slightly shiny in his palm. He walked closer and saw that the name "song shengshi" was engraved on the inner ring of the silver circle.

[Author's comments] Deshan criticized me because Joshua couldn't go out without the localization patch under this situation, so he picked up Wen Junni next to him, and then the KPI of 34 happened to be passed together, and the others wandered around - ...
