[Danmei Medium Chapter] Infernal Affairs

"I'll go to the finals." Ning Wen turned on the phone, new information came into view.

The sender is Shu Yi.

This is the one hundred and third message Shu Yi sent him.Every previous message lay quietly in his inbox, like gravel settled in the river of time.

He read it over and over several times, and suddenly laughed.

Not out of joy, relief, excitement or anything, he just wanted to laugh.There is no reason.

He felt that many things were too absurd, Fusheng was just a big dream, and both he and Shu Yi were illusory existences.It has the same nature as the flower in the mirror and the moon in the water. It will be smashed and disappeared when it encounters a little wave.

It's ridiculous to desperately search for an answer in a proposition that can't get a result.

Ning Wen packed up his emotions and returned to the music classroom with a happy face, "Let's continue, cheer me up for the last two days!"

The final of the city's top ten singers was held in the S University Gymnasium.Shu Yi reserved the tickets very early. On the day of the finals, he and a few roommates from the dormitory came to the venue early to support K Da Ye Pei Ying.

An entire floor of the University S Gymnasium was temporarily transformed into a stage and auditorium. When they entered the arena, spotlights were casting beams of light indoors.

Shu Yi didn't like crowds the most, but he still bravely pushed through the crowd and walked in, found his own seat and sat down.

After a while, all the lights in the hall went out.

After about ten seconds of silence, a spotlight suddenly came on, and the host stood under the light with a smile on his face.She was wearing a gorgeous sequined dress with an elegant temperament and a slender waist. Her appearance pushed the atmosphere to a climax.

"The Top Ten Singer Contest jointly organized by major universities in Beijing has finally ushered in the final final amidst the attention of the public," the host said in a sweet and high-pitched voice, "Excellent contestants from all over the city will have a final contest here. Tonight Doomed to never sleep again!"

Her ending was overwhelmed by the warm applause and shouts from the audience.

"Next, the first person to appear is Ye Peiying from the School of Foreign Languages, University of K!" The host opened his arms, "Applause is welcome!"

A few roommates around Shu Yi who were obsessed with Ye Peiying stood up as if they had taken drugs, put their hands around their mouths like a trumpet, and shouted Ye Peiying's name.Shu Yi wanted to cover his ears.

He just came to see one person today, and what other people do has nothing to do with him.

Ye Peiying's clothes are very Japanese, low-key and not eye-catching.Seemingly unknown, she surprised the audience with a Japanese song "Shimauta", and Shu Yi couldn't help applauding.This song "Shimauta" is one of the masterpieces of Natsukawa Satomi, known as "the most beautiful voice in Japan for 40 years".Ye Peiying's voice fits well with the soundtrack, almost as soon as she utters her voice, she can be sure that it is a high score.

"Ye Peiying won't win this time, it's too natural." The roommate was so excited that she was about to cry.

Shu Yi gave them an indifferent smile without answering.

Next came contestants sent by other colleges and universities, including music majors from professional art colleges such as Y University and U University.

Folk, pop, rock, Chinese, English, Japanese, each contestant can be said to be the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, each showing their special abilities.After a wonderful duel, that person has been absent for a long time.

Shu Yi waited anxiously, wondering whether he would give up the game.

Backstage, Ning Wen was forming a circle with other band members, encouraging each other.

"We are the finale, and everyone is looking forward to it. Don't let us down." Ning Wen stretched out his hand.

"Master F must win!" Everyone put their hands together.

"The last one to appear is Ning Wen, a student from the Arabic College of F University—" the voice of the host's announcement fell, and Ning Wen calmly walked onto the stage from the side steps.

The silence in the audience may be waiting with bated breath, or it may be absent-mindedness at the end of the game.

The bright lights made Ning Wen a little confused, he simply took off the microphone from the stand, took two steps forward, and found the most comfortable position.

Then he took a light breath and said, "This song is written for the person I love. I don't know if he is here today, but I still want to give this song to him here . . . anyhow, listen to it."

After that, he smiled and turned his head to signal for playing music.

The ethereal piano sound opened the door to the magnificent movement.Xu Zihao started to play the guitar vigorously, and the sound of the music from the speaker was far better than expected.Ning Wen's difficult arrangement is really up to standard.

Accompanied by a group of musical instruments, Ning Wen's voice is as warm and soft as running water, light and clear, reaching everyone's eardrums.

"If I have love, can I hold you in my arms?

......"

Shu Yi has heard Ning Wen sing this song a long time ago.They hadn't parted at the time, both hopeful that this was a fresh start.

This is what Ning Wen wrote to him.

He generously showed this gift to everyone present, as if showing him his heart without reservation.

Ning Wen can still sing this song, does it mean that he still loves him?

Is that so?

Otherwise he will write another song, or he will not sing to such amazing effect.

Shu Yi stood up regardless of the strange eyes of K college students around him.Ning Wen was only a vague outline under the spotlight, but he seemed to be able to see every trace of expression on his face, smiling sadly.

The melody came out, enveloping Shu Yi tenderly and affectionately, like a warm embrace.Every single word in the lyrics contains thousands of emotions knocked on his heart, which made him almost lose his breath.

"Thank you everyone." After singing, Ning Wen bowed deeply.

Shu Yi left the table amidst thunderous cheers and ran downstairs.

He suddenly understood that Ning Wen had endured so much alone.

The extreme sorrow seemed to be sublimated into nameless joy in Ningwen's singing.The problems that had troubled him for several days were instantly relieved, and he felt so relaxed that he was about to float.

He wanted to see him, whether he could speak or not, or what he could say.

He just couldn't wait to see Ning Wen, as if he wanted to confirm his existence.

At this time, the scores were announced on the big screen, and Ning Wen was No.1.

Standing below, Shu Yi looked up at Ning Wen's photo on the screen, and couldn't hold back his smile.

The contestants were the first to leave, and Ning Wen was no exception. After receiving the award, he gave a speech of thanks and left.Shu Yi chased from the edge of the gymnasium in the direction Ning Wen left.

Ning Wen carried the guitar on his back and walked forward with his teammates laughing and joking, but he felt empty and lost.

"Ning Wen!" Someone called him.

Ning Wen turned around.

Shu Yi.

Ning Wen didn't have time to say hello to his teammates, so he left the team and ran towards Shu Yi.

The distance between the two became shorter and shorter, and they finally stood still.

"Ning Wen."

"Shu Yi."

The two spoke at the same time.

"You speak first."

"You speak first."

They spoke at the same time.

Shu Yi stepped forward helplessly, smiled and raised his hand to cover Ning Wen's mouth.

"Thank you for your gift. This is the best one I've ever received." Shu Yi said, "But, I'm really sorry, I can't give you a gift in return right now."

Ning Wen gently covered Shu Yi's hand, shook it lightly, and then took it away from his mouth.He gave Shu Yi a bright smile.

When he laughed, his pupils cut water, and there was a sea of ​​stars in his eyes, which was unbelievably beautiful.

The teammate behind him urged him with a strange smile, Ning Wen knew it was over.

"My friend called me, I'll go first?" He bit his lower lip and waved to Shu Yi.

"Goodbye, Ning Wen."

Goodbye, we will definitely meet again.

Ning Wen walked halfway and turned back, Shu Yi was still standing there watching him.

He silently said "thank you".

"Thank you, Shu Yi." On the bus back to school, Ning Wen leaned against the window by himself, his throat tightening for a while.

Ye Peiying put up the poster in the dormitory, proudly showing off to her roommate, "It looks good, doesn't it look good?"

The roommate came over and found that the poster was none other than Ning Wen, the god-level figure who snatched the city's top ten singer No.1 from Ye Peiying.

"It's amazing, you are too tolerant of your opponent." The roommate couldn't understand, "He is the one who beat you."

"I am willing." Ye Peiying smiled, with the admiration unique to little girls in love on her face.

"I'm afraid you're crazy, woman." The roommate walked away in disgust, leaving Ye Peiying alone in front of the poster.

None of them knew the shock Ye Peiying felt when she saw Ning Wen on the stage for the first time.She wasn't in the same group as him in the preliminaries, so naturally she didn't have the chance to fight, otherwise she was sure that she would have fallen in love with this talented boy earlier.

Ning Wen is like a person born for the stage.As long as he stood on the stage, the sun and the moon would be overshadowed.

Ye Peiying didn't want to miss such an excellent boy.

So she started the journey to inquire about Ningwen's contact information.

F major and K major are long arts and sciences, so there is no intersection.Because they are five kilometers apart, there are only a handful of opportunities for fellowship.So Ye Peiying gave up her plan to find Ning Wen's acquaintances on campus.

It's better to be direct than indirect.

As a result, one afternoon, Ye Peiying appeared outside the music room of the F University Student Activity Center.

There was a relaxing guitar sound inside, and her heart jumped for joy—maybe, maybe Ning Wen was inside.Maybe... this is what Ning Wen played!

After struggling for a while, she made up her mind and knocked on the door.

There was the sound of dragging footsteps inside the door, and then the door was opened.A fat man like a small mountain blocked the door, his body fat was all over the door, "Who are you looking for?"

Ye Peiying was so frightened that she took two steps back, and stammered, "Is Ning Wen...here?"

Song Shan turned his head and called out: "Ning Wen, someone is looking for him." Then he stood aside and let Ye Peiying in.

Ye Peiying entered the room cautiously.

The band members were all there, and she was a little embarrassed.

"Hello, are you...?" Ning Wen pressed the last chord, walked up to Ye Peiying and greeted her.

"Hi, I'm Ye Peiying from the K University's Outer Court," Ye Peiying summoned up the courage to extend her hand to introduce herself, "I'm the first in the finals, I wonder if you heard it backstage."

Ning Wen's face was blank at first, and then suddenly realized: "It's you!"

So we shook hands.

The band members also knew her, so they stood up to say hello.

"I came here this time because I was convinced by the loss in the finals, and I have all the respect for the great god Ningwen." Ye Peiying explained, "Because I also like music very much, and I also have original plans in the future, so I want to make friends with the great god Ningwen. A friend, to learn from."

"You're exaggerating, I'm not a great master." Ning Wen quickly denied.

"In short, you are very good. If I want to learn to compose, I need to ask you for guidance." Ye Peiying took out her mobile phone, "If you don't mind, let's save a number?"

"Okay." Ning Wen agreed.

"Yeah yeah!!!" Ye Peiying jumped up holding her mobile phone when she returned to the dormitory, and her roommates watched her go crazy alone in bewilderment.

"I'm going to Ningwen's phone number!" Ye Peiying's voice changed with joy.

Hearing this, the other five roommates drew the curtain in front of the table in unison.

Girls in love are idiots, you have to calm her down quickly, or she will really go crazy.
