Overtone

It was the afternoon of that day when Qi Ye left City A.

The air ticket was set at a temporary price increase last night. When I went to the bar to ask the boss to hand in my resignation letter at night, I was detained because of this matter.

After all, Qi Ye was the signature resident singer of their bar. After Lin Wen resigned, she was almost the backbone. However, only the person concerned could figure out the matter of resignation.

Qi Ye brought coffee for each of them, and before leaving, Xiao Chen suddenly called him to stop.

"Brother Qi, you can take this too." Xiao Chen gave him a bag of things, "The hangover medicine that Professor Xiao left here last time is not expired, we don't need it here."

Seeing the familiar handwriting on the label, Qi Ye smiled and stuffed it into his bag.

I didn't say anything else. I met in society many times, and being able to work together is fate. It came in a chic way, and it ended in a chic way.

After sending a text message to Xiao Cheng, Qi Ye boarded the plane.

The audition is in September, in a third-tier city in the south, so there are still two months left.

So Qi Ye planned to live in the county for a while.

When he got home, his parents were already waiting downstairs. Seeing his son carrying a guitar and carrying a suitcase, Lao Qi hurried up to grab the bag.

"Where's Xiao Xiao?" After entering the door, Lao Qi poured a cup of green tea, "Aren't you two coming back together?"

Qi Ye sat down on the sofa, smiled and said, "He's an associate professor, he's busy with work."

Lao Qi nodded, and dragged out the box under the coffee table.

"I haven't finished the food that was sent to us at the end of May last time. Two days ago, I sent red dates and American ginseng." Ms. Zhao said, "We took it, don't let him be so polite."

Qi Ye said "um", still smiling: "I'll talk about him later."

I sat and chatted with Lao Qi and Ms. Zhao for a while, and I heard that my nephew got good grades in the college entrance examination, and his line is stable, and that the little nephew might come to live here for the summer vacation. He's playing around here in the county seat.

They talked about trivial matters after dinner, but they chatted vigorously. In the evening, Qi Ye said that he was coming to cook, but was stopped by Ms. Zhao, saying that the chef at home disagreed.

Lao Qi laughed so hard that his creases rose, and said that he hadn't eaten home food for a long time, so he would give him a chance to show his skills.

After helping to put away the bowls and chopsticks, Qi Ye went back to his room.

I've been on the road all day, and now I'm really free to sort out the mess of thoughts.

Gently swipe to the top of WeChat with fingertips, Qi Ye called Xiao Cheng.

Hearing the familiar voice on the phone, he took a deep breath, as if he hadn't heard Xiao Cheng's voice for a long time, and then smiled: "I didn't say this, it's my fault."

Xiao Cheng paused for a while, then answered.

They have a lot to talk about, but now it's like a stick in their throats, and neither side can say anything else.

"Are you angry?" Qi Ye said, "I think you're too busy. It's easier if you can take the traffic."

This reason is not sufficient, Xiao Cheng did not answer.

Through the mobile phone, Qi Ye could know his expression on the other end, and when he was about to speak, he heard Xiao Cheng say, "I will come over before September starts."

Qi Ye was taken aback: "You... know?"

"I found Zhou Qun, and also checked the time of the audition on the Internet." Xiao Cheng said, "Take a rest in these two months."

Qi Ye said "hmm".

Xiao Cheng's tone was always calm and strong. From yesterday's leaving without saying goodbye, he definitely knew what Qi Ye was doing, but he didn't mention a word.

Calm down and think about it, in fact, Qi Ye went to the south to avoid it for a while, and when the limelight passed, it could be regarded as a kind of protection.

It's impossible for Xiao Cheng not to know this.

The two briefly exhorted each other a few words.

How should I put it, yesterday's incident won't really hurt feelings, after all, we've been together for so long, and the two of them have learned how to tolerate each other's little emotions since they got in touch.

But there was something pressing in the hearts of both parties, and they didn't show it, they just kept it, and slowly retracted it from the side.

In the evening, Qi Ye eats with his parents and sits watching TV together. The ordinary days can always relax the tense nerves gradually.

But Qi Ye always felt that something was missing. He stood behind the rattan chair, helped Lao Qi squeeze his shoulders, and then listened to his father's nagging, saying that he should bring Xiao Cheng back quickly.

The old couple usually stay at home, quiet and cold, and they are always thinking about their son when he has a partner.

Qi Ye let out a laugh.

After the TV and the lights in the living room were turned off, Qi Ye lay on the bed alone.

The cotton quilt from school was still covering her body, which was familiar and reassuring, but Qi Ye was no longer used to sleeping in the single bed, and it was also quite difficult to bear the overwhelming hot searches and comments before closing her eyes.

After tossing for a while, Qi Ye stood up and stared in a daze at the "good night" he had just exchanged with Xiao Cheng on the screen.

Just then, Zhou Qun called.

"Brother, you are so cruel." Zhou Qun said, "You left me and went back without even saying hello?"

Qi Ye leaned against the head of the bed: "Didn't I send you a message?"

"Then my buddy is for nothing." Zhou Qun wailed on the phone, "I also want to be treated the same as Professor Xiao."

Qi Ye smiled and didn't bother to talk to him: "Don't make trouble."

After chatting nonsense for a while, Qi Ye asked, "You won't make a special call just because you didn't say hello?"

Zhou Qun repeatedly said that was the matter, and after a few seconds, he couldn't hold back and laughed.

"Let me tell you something." Zhou Qun said, "Today Bella and I..."

Before he finished speaking, Qi Ye understood: "Really?"

"Can you come back bro?" Zhou Qun was quite excited when he heard that, "There is no conflict with your audition, I will treat you and Professor Xiao to dinner whenever you come back."

The buddies have been chasing after him for a long time, and Qi Ye, who is a brother, is also happy to hear this.

He said that after a good development, he would have to give away money, and then hung up the phone after making a few more noises.

Smoking is not allowed in the room, Qi Ye took out the cigarette case, looked out the window, opened the door and went to the balcony to smoke.The last time I saw the stars with Xiao Cheng was still vivid in my memory, but at that time I could only see green peppers piled up in the bare earth, and this time I came back and they were much taller.

Fast forward to the beginning of July.

There was no suspense when the announcement of the proposed appointment came out, Qi Ye took a look at it and closed it. After all, what he was worried about was not this matter, but the subsequent publicity period.He and Xiao Cheng are still in contact as usual, but more topics are on daily life, without the greasy way before.

But Qi Ye also thinks it's pretty good, no matter how much you care about me, in the end, life should return to simple food and drink.

But how should I put it, when I think about it occasionally in the dead of night, this process has been accelerated by the previous accidents, and I still have some regrets.

But even so, life must go on.

He talked on the phone with Xiao Cheng during the day, and sat at the desk at night, staring at his little nephew who was on summer vacation doing his homework.

Today is no exception, but it may be because Qi Ye has been looking at his phone since just now, his nephew bit his pencil and softly asked, "What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing." Qi Ye said, "I'll order takeaway for you Uncle Xiao."

"Is he a musician?" The little nephew asked with his head tilted. "Don't musicians eat by themselves?"

The logic of children is always different from that of adults.

Qi Ye smiled, and after inputting the other party's birthday into the payment box, he rubbed the child's hair and said, "It's because I'm a musician that I don't have anything to eat."

The little nephew looked at him with wide eyes, puzzled.

As usual, Qi Ye didn't order anything else, just simple rice and two light stir-fried vegetables.

In the past few days, I heard that the date of the court session has been set, and at the end of the semester, there is a professional practice to be responsible. Qi Ye knows that Xiao Cheng will definitely not have time to eat right now.

After helping my nephew with homework for a while, the phone rang.

It was the delivery man who called, asking if the address was wrong, and no one opened the door when it was delivered upstairs.Qi Ye was stunned, and said that maybe no one was home right now, so he sent him to the security room next to the turnstile on the first floor.

But just as he clicked on WeChat to send a message to Xiao Cheng, another call came suddenly.

It was the doorman Xiao Cheng was familiar with who called, and asked Qi Ye directly if it was the takeaway in Room 1502.Before answering, he said that Mr. Xiao probably doesn't live here recently, and he hasn't seen him a few times for more than half a month.

So Qi Ye's hand holding the phone trembled.

Not thinking about what to do with the takeaway, Qi Ye directly sent a message to Xiao Cheng, asking where the address was, and ordered him a takeaway.

After posting, he opened the door and went in. The little nephew was already sitting on the bed, holding a copy of "The Little Prince".Qi Ye sat down next to each other, with his arms around his little nephew, reading bedtime stories with him.

Looking at the colorful pages, Qi Ye was a little dazed again, and the moment he came back to his senses, he saw his little nephew playing with his curly hair with his hands.

"Why don't you tie it up?" the child asked, "It's too girly to wear it all the time."

Qi Ye brushed his hair back and cleaned his ears, "I'll tie my hair again when Uncle Xiao comes back."

"Why do you keep mentioning Uncle Xiao..." the little nephew muttered, "Could it be that he is super powerful, a superman?"

Qi Ye smiled and said that it was true for him.

The child continued to ask: "Then this is also a gift from Uncle Xiao?"

Qi Ye followed the plump little hands to look over.

——The only gift Qi Ye brought home was the violin pendant engraved with Xiao Cheng's abbreviation.

"Yeah." Qi Ye hugged his little nephew in response, and then he suddenly asked, "Then can I play?"

Qi Ye shook his head decisively: "No."

"Why?" The little nephew turned to look at him.

"Because this is my most precious thing." Qi Ye said, "It's the same as the little prince's rose."

"Important thing?" The little nephew thought for a while, "If you are in danger, can you exchange your life?"

This question was too extreme, Qi Ye couldn't help laughing, and didn't answer him again.

After reaching out to turn off the night light, he coaxed his little nephew to sleep.

The mist belonging to Xia Ye came over, both real and illusory, the little nephew slept peacefully, so Qi Ye put his eyes on the shelf and looked at the pendant.

After a long time, he said "um", as if giving himself an answer, and said softly: "It is true that I can exchange everything I have."

The author says:

Brother Qi: I want Professor Xiao to accompany me.
