, like a woman," and sniffed close to the clock string, "what kind of perfume. "

"None of your business." Zhong Xian turned and got into the car.

"For him, make yourself like this..."

Bell slammed the car door shut.

Dake got into the car from the other side.

When seeing Deng Yi at night, Zhong Xian's haze was swept away.

At eight o'clock in the evening, they went to a small star concert together.

"We've been watching concerts instead of listening to them recently. So you're more interested in music than me?" Zhong Xian said between the two songs.

Deng Yi held Zhong Xian's hand under the seat: "Fourth Brother, give your songs to professionals to listen to, and they will release an album for you."

Zhong Xian thought he had heard wrong. "Release an album?"

"Yes. All your songs, seriously made into an album."

Zhong Xian still didn't understand: "What album is coming out, am I a singer?"

"I didn't make it clear. The fourth brother is now entering the entertainment and cultural industry. He cooperates with SN. It's easy for me to ask him a favor. He has also heard you sing."

Zhong Xian laughed and said, "I've long since lost my star dream, so why are you starting to do it?"

"You wrote so many songs, don't you want to keep a memorial?"

"Of course it's good to keep it as a souvenir. I thought you asked me to be a singer."

"If you want to be a singer, you can try it too."

"Pull it down. Do you think I can be famous? I'm in danger of starving to death."

"Just do it if you like it. Don't regret it. In the end, there is me." Deng Yi said very seriously.

Zhong Xian said with a smile: "Can you support me? You can't even spend your father's money, and what you earn by yourself is not as much as mine."

Deng Yi smiled and said nothing.

Zhong Xian suddenly realized: "Fourth brother will give you money. He can give you as much as you want. He can support you, but it is impossible to support me."

"It's still about him proposing an album."

"It can be seen that you are closer to the fourth brother than to your parents."

"He has been like a real brother to me since I was a child." Deng Yi said, "Without my fourth brother, it is hard to imagine what I am like now."

Zhong Xian agreed: "I envy you to have such a brother to help... He knows you so well, he won't doubt our relationship."

"No. He said he's glad I finally have a buddy."

This is the first time Zhong Xian is alone with Deng Qian.

On the QHC site, there is a place called Splendid Taoyuan Health/Life Center.

When passing this top hotel on Shennan Avenue, you can only see a classical-style house hidden in the shade of greenery, and you don’t think it’s anything special. After you drive in, you will gradually find that there is something strange inside.As if you are in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, where winding paths lead to seclusion, you will inadvertently find a looming person dressed as a fairy playing the piano in a long pavilion in a certain corner.

They booked a single house called Fengqiao House, pushed open the classic wooden door, the room was magnificent, Chaoshan refreshments were delicately placed on the ancient wooden coffee table in the rest area, and the waiter was courteous and pleasant.

Deng Qian made an appointment with someone from the music production company tonight and asked Zhong Xian to get to know him.Deng Yi was summoned to Guangzhou for a temporary emergency, so Zhong Xian had to come alone.

Although many contacts have confirmed that the fourth brother Deng Qian is a kind person, Zhong Xian will still be inexplicably nervous, and even his breathing must be adjusted to be smooth.

He arrived early, and the waiter took him into Fengqiao room.This wooden house is built on the artificial river, surrounded by tropical plants and green bamboos.The room is extremely spacious.Zhong Xian paced and looked at it.Although he has entertained clients many times, he has never brought clients to such a high-end place.The price of a meal here, don't think about it, it will be sky-high.

Based on his understanding of Deng Yi, they are not extravagant and wasteful families.Even the flamboyant Kaidi, who on the surface seems to be a big spender, actually didn't see him doing anything out of the ordinary.It must be the strict family style.

Thinking of Emperor Kai, when Zhong Xian rushed to Taoyuan tonight, he accidentally ran into an assistant that Emperor Kai brought with him when he was in Hangzhou.The assistant accompanied several foreigners to another room, maybe Kaidi is here tonight.It is not surprising to think that this is where the headquarters of HQC Group and HQC Real Estate are located.Presumably this is where HQC often entertains guests.

Zhong Xian looked at a few Western abstract oil paintings on the wall. There were no specific graphics in these paintings, but they could somehow remind people of food, and they also had a special artistic conception.There is a painting that is full of water waves, and a blurred figure is printed in the depth of the water waves.Zhong Xian stared at the shadow and frowned. At that moment, he suddenly remembered a long time ago.

Just as Zhong Xian was in a trance, the figure on the painting actually moved and slowly walked out of the frame.It turned out that the painting was translucent, and there was room on the other side of the painting—the painting was embedded in a gray wooden wall like a screen.

Zhong Xian took a step back involuntarily.

"You came... so early?" he stammered.

The person who came out from behind the wall was none other than the fourth elder brother Deng Jian.

With a gentle face, the fourth brother greeted Zhong Xian to sit in the rest area.

"How do you plan to make your album, have you thought about it?" Deng Qian's voice was as gentle as his own.He was wearing a black shirt with a dark silver pattern tonight, the silver buttons gleaming on it.Seeing that Zhong Xian was speechless, he turned his head and watched with a smile.

Zhong Xian looked up: "Since there are professional musicians, I would like to boldly try an alternative style of music. For example, R, which the band cannot do live..."

"You don't have to tell me. I'm not a professional, just communicate with them later."

"Thank you fourth brother for helping me so much."

"Thank you Deng Yi."

They chatted about irrelevant topics.Zhong Xian's state of mind was changing quietly, and he couldn't help expressing his feelings to Deng Qian-about the unique shocking power of the other party, perhaps a kind of charisma of leadership, which made people feel awe and longed for closeness.He had never encountered such a person so far.

Deng Qian said after hearing this: "It seems that many people will be like this in front of me. But you should not be reserved. You are Deng Yi's good friend, and I will treat you as a half brother."

Zhong Xian had a sudden brain fever: "I saw your shadow in that painting just now, and I thought... have we met before?"

Deng Qian stared at the refreshments on the ancient wood, as if attracted by those refreshments.There was still a smile in his eyes.

"Have we met ten years ago? Someone once stopped me on the school playground..." Zhong Xian didn't dare to continue.

"Really?" Deng Qian raised his teacup and signaled to Zhong Xian, "Chaoshan's Kung Fu tea is very good. You are from the north, drinking more of this tea can drive away moisture."

"Fourth brother knows that I am from the north?"

"Speaking of this, Deng Yi hardly has any friends. Friends like you are even rarer. What's interesting is that before he became friends with you, he didn't like you very much."

Zhong Xian was surprised: "Really?"

"Well. I ordered dresses for the two of you, and I need to wear them for a formal occasion in a few days." Seeing that Zhong Xian was still struggling, he added, "The things he said before were not sincere. The antonym of liking is not hating , I don't care."

Zhong Xian found that although Deng Qian was born with a smiling face, when he was not smiling, his eyes would become very deep, like a bottomless deep pool.

When the musicians arrived, Zhong Xian communicated with them unreservedly about the idea of ​​song production according to Deng Qian's instructions.We talked happily until late at night.After thirty days of drinking and the musicians left, Zhong Xian and Deng Qian were still sitting at the table drinking each other.Deng Yi was on his way back from Guangzhou, Deng Qian suggested to sit here and wait for him.Zhong Xian didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

Because of drinking a lot of wine, and seeing Deng Qian's demeanor in front of his music company partners, Zhong Xian already had a lot of appreciation in his heart.

The fourth brother has a handsome appearance similar to Deng Yi, but inside there is a mysterious magic power that is both good and evil.It's hard to figure out.

Bell strings have forgotten time.When the atmosphere gradually changed, he suddenly became a little sober.

He took a few deep breaths, and could still hear his own heartbeat.He wanted to sink into the silent lake, close his eyes and ears, and see clearly what was going on in his heart.When you ask yourself, only Deng Yi is really attached in your heart.Tonight's Deng Qian is just like a raging mountain fire, flying past him.

But the fire was too strong to be resisted.

Zhong Xian was puzzled.Why just sitting next to the fourth brother, his senses are like going through catastrophe.

He doesn't remember what topics they talked about, what they said that needs to be remembered, he only clearly remembers the wine glasses in their hands, the wonderful color under the bright light; the look Deng Qian looked at him after taking a light drink; and The light reflected from the silver buttons on the shirt.

Zhong Xian began to feel dizzy.

Fortunately, Deng Yi came back in time.When he pushed the door and entered, Zhong Xian felt as if he was saved.

"Tomorrow he can record the song." Deng Qian stood up from the position beside Zhong Xian. "I'll go back first, let Zhong Xian tell you about the rest."

……

"Actually, there's no need to record any album..." Zhong Xian said suddenly on the way back.

Deng Yi gave him a strange look while driving: "Why?"

"It's too much trouble, why bother. It's not necessary. I don't have any illusions about music anymore."

"Who are you angry with? Didn't communicate well with the musician just now?"

"No. Quite the opposite." Zhong Xian looked out the car window. "Trouble your family, I'm sorry."

"You mean the fourth brother? You don't need to be strangers to him. Treat him just like you treat me."

"How is it possible?" Zhong Xian was a little excited. "How can I treat him like I treat you?"

"He has arranged everything for you!"

After the car passed two streets, Zhong Xian said: "Yes, probably today
