your voice is delicious

At ten o'clock in the evening, Mu Linshen came to the stage with a guitar, and he sat on the bench behind the microphone stand.

A beam of light came down from above, and the only strong light in the bar gradually became dim.

Mu Lin deeply adjusted the height of the microphone, and then plucked the strings with his fingers seemingly randomly.

When the liqueur chocolate began to bump around in the mouth, Tang Tang knew that he was the one who was poured into the cup by the other party.

In a way, his "desensitization treatment" is still effective.

The strong wine choked the throat, and the bitter and sweet chocolate made the temperature of the skin rise.

Tang Tang licked the tip of his teeth, he would not be easily drunk by wine now, but the heat in his body continued to burn.

Mu Linshen is singing some old songs.

Familiar classic songs, after his singing, have a different taste.

The man on the stage gradually attracted the attention of all the guests in the bar.

Tang Tang sat directly opposite Mu Linshen, staring at his brother intently.

The distance between the two is not far, but he is in the dark, and Mu Linshen is in the light.

The distance between the stage and the stage is sometimes the actual distance between each other.

My brother said that he desperately wanted to run into his world, but why not for Tang Tang in the audience?

Obviously he had opened his heart to Mu Lin, but the other party stopped suddenly.

The expectation after each tenderness can't be exchanged for "I like you".

Tang Tang feels powerless about their current relationship.

Time ticked, two hours flowed in the man's magnetic and hoarse singing.

The Spring Festival is coming soon, and the performances of the people on stage are coming to an end.

"The last song that will be sung next is my original - "Unequal People"."

Tang Tang didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that his brother looked up at him.

Mu Linshen plucked the strings slowly with his fingers, his eyes drooping, as if staring at the guitar in his arms.

However, the person opposite him saw the inexplicable sadness in those deep eyes.

Tang Tang's heart sank.

"Hey, how are you doing / Is your life preserved in a diary / Do you remember the thunderstorm and heat of summer..."

At the beginning of the song, Tang Tang seemed to be pushed into the long river of memory.

He remembered the summer when he met his brother for the first time, the cicadas sang and the birds sang, and the boy's innocent smiling face was under the scorching sun.

"The white picture that led you through suddenly took on color / Every step closer is revealing the eagerness in my heart / I look at the star you see in the bottom of my eyes / Shooting stars across the sky, do you still want to chase... ..."

"But we who are not equal/How should we describe the future/Will my staggered intrusion be exchanged for a distraught exit/I have lost the courage to own you/People who are not equal/Will I wave goodbye..."

"Mistakes of unequal people are lifetimes / injuries of unequal people are scars / unequal people should not have expectations..."

Mu Linshen raised his head suddenly and looked at the person directly in front of him.

"Unequal people, let go of each other to have a new life / Unequal people meet again is a kind of harm / Why do you have to pursue that unequal person so hard..."

Mu Linshen sang this song for him.

Tang Tang saw the man's answer from the other's eyes.

It turned out that my brother didn't ignore his every inquiry, but needed time to write the answer into a song.

Tang Tang clenched his fists and subconsciously shook his head.

Mu Lin looked at him with deep eyes, but it seemed to pass through him again. Tang Tang began to get scared and didn't want to listen to this song anymore, but the man on the stage didn't seem to want to let him go.

Every word and every sentence, he was asking him, can people who are not equal really have a future.

of course can!

Tang Tang wants to shout out loudly, he wants to tell Mu Linshen that as long as he is willing to accept, they can work hard to create the future.

"People who are not equal/Perhaps they should hide beauty/in Pandora's box forever."

After Mu Linshen sang the last sentence, he looked away.

Suddenly, everyone in the bar began counting down in unison.

It turns out that the New Year's Eve is approaching.

"ten!"

"Nine!"

"Eight!"

Mu Lin stood up deeply, stepped off the stage with his guitar on his back, but walked towards the backcourt.

Tang Tang stared at the back that was drifting away from him, and the nails of his clenched fists hurt his palms.

"seven!"

"six!"

"five!"

Is this song "Unequal People" the answer of my brother?

Tang Tang was not reconciled.

"Four!"

"three!"

"two!"

He stood up abruptly, walked through the countdown, and chased towards the backcourt.

"one!"

"Happy New Year--"

While everyone was cheering, Tang Tang's cell phone rang suddenly.

When he realized that it was his father calling, he stopped in his tracks.

Pressing the call button with trembling fingers, he heard Tang Qing shouting——

"Tangtang! You are now an older brother!"

Tang Guo, male, was born on February 2, at 12:[-] am on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Tang Tang came out of Qingba and returned a video call to Tang Qing.

The other party quickly connected, and his father was crying with joy in the picture.

Tang Tang was also very excited, he choked up and said, "Dad, how is Mom?"

Tang Qing: "Don't worry, mother and child are safe."

Tang Tang nodded and asked, "Can you show me my brother?"

Tang Qing turned the camera on the baby in the nurse's arms.

The baby boy was wrapped in cloth, his whole face was flushed, wrinkled and ugly, and he didn't look very human.

Tang Tang frowned slightly, and when she was about to comment on "this brother is a bit ugly", Tang Guo suddenly burst into tears.

A salty, sweet and fragrant cucumber-flavored potato chips burst in his mouth.

Tang Tang froze, staring at the ugly baby boy on the screen, his eyes were full of surprise.

Tang Qing pointed the camera at himself, and seeing the expression of the eldest son opposite, he explained: "Babies look like this when they are just born, and it will be fine in a few days. When you were born, you were uglier than Guoguo, and now you don't Have you grown into a handsome man?"

That's right, I'm starting to favor the second treasure.

Tang Tang relaxed his expression, shook his head with a smile, and whispered: "I'm not surprised by this..."

However, the video call was hung up suddenly, and there was no call after that.

Tang Tang blinked, thinking that his father must be very busy in the hospital now, and he has no time to take care of him.

His brother's voice...

It turned out to be the taste of cucumber-flavored potato chips, which surprised and delighted Tang Tang.

Tang Guo and Mu Linshen had the same birthday again. These two coincidences gave him an inexplicable intimacy with his distant brother.

Tang Tang put away his mobile phone and was about to go back to Qingba to find Mu Linshen, but was told that Brother Shen had just left.

He froze in place with a dazed look on his face.

At one o'clock in the morning, Tang Tang took a taxi back to Feilu Community.

He ran all the way up to the 7th floor and opened the door with the spare key, but it was pitch black inside.

My brother didn't come home.

He was a little panicked, took out his mobile phone again and dialed Mu Linshen's mobile number, this time the other party connected.

"Where did you go!" Tang Tang's tone was very aggrieved, and his eyes began to turn red.

There was a moment of silence on the other side, and then the man's hoarse voice came: "I will move back to the school dormitory, you... just live in my place first."

Tang Tang frowned: "Mu Linshen, what do you mean?"

"..."

"Happy New Year, Tang Tang."

The call was suddenly hung up by the other party. After a busy tone, Tang Tang lowered his hand.

There was a sour taste in his nose, his teeth bit his lower lip fiercely, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

On the first day of the new year, on the day of his brother's 25th birthday, he was dumped.

They haven't even started well yet, Tang Tang didn't even have time to say "Happy Birthday".

He flung himself weakly on the big bed in the master bedroom, and buried his face in the quilt.

I really think it's ridiculous, they were still making troubles here a few days ago, but now that man chooses to end this relationship inexplicably.

"What a scumbag." Tang Tang scolded softly. If he knew this, he might as well go back to City B to accompany his parents and younger brother.

Tang Tang didn't have much time to complain and be sad, and his father made a video call again, saying that his mother and younger brother had already fallen asleep, so he could rest assured.

I also wish him a happy new year, and tell him to take care of himself, and bring the person he likes home next time he goes home.

Tang Tang felt sour in his heart.

After hanging up Tang Qing's call, Tian Chen made another video call.

The sweet and delicious oranges made his depressed mood a little bit better.

The two chatted nonsense for more than ten minutes, and someone called again.

It was an unfamiliar mobile phone number, Tang Tang frowned slightly, and said to Tian Chen: "Chengzi, I have a phone number here, I will answer it first, and I will call you later."

As soon as he got through the call, a long-lost grape yogurt squeezed away the sweet orange flavor left in his mouth.

"Hi~mydearCandy~" came from the receiver with a pure British pronunciation.

"Darren?" Tang Tang was shocked, and then confirmed the caller ID, and asked strangely: "How do you use a Chinese mobile phone number?"

The other party answered him in extremely substandard Chinese: "I'm coming to China!"

Darren was Tang Tang's classmate when he was studying in the United States, and he was also his best friend there.

When he was going back to China, Darren cried and said that he would go to China to find him in the future. He thought it was just a joke, but who knew that the other party actually came!

"Where are you now?" Tang Tang was a little worried. Darren was unfamiliar with the place and spoke plastic Chinese. Don't expect any accidents after the Chinese New Year.

"Don't worry, Candy~ I applied for a graduate student at University X, and I'm living in a hotel now."

Tang Tang was even more shocked, "You are actually in City X?"

"of course! I'm here for you."

Tang Tang supported his forehead and had a very headache.

Before Darren contacted him and asked him which city in China he was in, he told him.

Unexpectedly, this man prepared such a big "surprise" for him.

"Just have a place to live." Tang Tang breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Then let's meet tomorrow, Darren."

"I can't wait."

This foreigner idiom is quite easy to use, Tang Tang said with a smile: "Happy New Year, Darren."

Darren is a person who does as the Romans do, and soon got the meaning of the Chinese New Year, and he also replied: "Happy New Year, Candy."

After hanging up the call, Tang Tang didn't feel sleepy at all.

This wave of ups and downs has risen again, and he doubts whether the beginning of the new year is his Mercury retrograde period.

He tapped on Mu Linshen's cell phone number, but he didn't press it in the end.

Tang Tang took out the birthday gift that he planned to give to his brother tonight from the bedside drawer, and sighed softly.

Forget it, he's too messed up now.

Be quiet first.
