Lin Yuanye lived up to expectations and ordered a bunch of foreign wine.

Everyone temporarily forgot about the troubles of the shutdown of the construction site, and started drinking lively.Babyface called Shang Lin Yuanye to play Jiushuquan with them, and found that the set of rules he knew was slightly different from theirs, and Lin Yuanye relearned the set of rules they used to.

He soon realized that he seemed to have underestimated the drinking capacity of the group in front of him.A few workers who are honest and responsible on weekdays drink freely and happily.Their drinking capacity does not seem to be worse than that of Lin Yuanye who hangs out in bars all year round.

Unaccustomed to the new rules of Jiuquan here, Lin Yuanye quickly lost another round.He consciously raised his wine glass to drink, his cheeks were already tinged with scarlet.

People with fair complexion seem to show color easily, and Lin Yuanye is still very clear in his heart when he feels his cheeks warming up, he is still far away from getting drunk.

However, when he raised his eyes and looked around at the other people, he saw that there was no blush on the darker skinned faces of those people.Holding the finished wine glass again, he turned to look at the man beside him.

Cheng Liao seemed to be able to play the game with ease, and the number of times he lost was very few, and he didn't even pick up the wine glass in front of him.Lin Yuanye raised his eyebrows slightly unbalanced, put down the empty wine glass in his hand, and cupped his cheeks with both hands, with a slight smile on his brows and eyes, and pretended to be dissatisfied: "You are bullying foreigners."

The baby face touched his head with a slightly innocent expression, "The price of foreign wine is so expensive, it doesn't taste as spicy as Bai."

Lin Yuanye finally had a slight understanding of how their drinking capacity was developed.

Naturally, the wine he drank in the bar in the small town couldn't compare with the wine he had drunk before.It's just that he hasn't drunk like this in a bar for a long time, Lin Yuanye is still a little uncomfortable, and wants to find something else to divert his attention a little.

He thought so in his heart, so he did it.

Lin Yuanye stood up from his seat, pointed to the small band performing on the middle stage and asked, "Do you want to listen to a song? I'll sing for you."

Naturally, everyone present was very supportive, and the performance of the baby face was the most enthusiastic.Lin Yuanye turned and left his seat, and walked straight towards the stage.Babyface called everyone else and went off the stage ready to applaud him.

Just as a song had ended, Lin Yuanye had a few discussions with the band's host, and then temporarily replaced the other party's position in front of the microphone.The drummer and guitarist of the remaining two bands cooperated with Lin Yuanye to switch the song style.

The prelude to a folk song sounded in the bar. Lin Yuanye held the microphone in his slightly drunken mood, cast his eyes down into the air, and sang the first line in a moderate voice.

This can be regarded as a classic sung song, even in this small town, almost everyone present has heard this song before.

His voice is not quite similar to the original singer's voice, but his voice and emotions are mixed in it. When the singing voice falls on other people's ears, it doesn't sound like a dissonance, and even vaguely sings that belong to him. unique taste.

The theme in the lyrics has nothing to do with love, Lin Yuanye sang with ease while meeting Cheng Liao's eyes in mid-air.

The man stood tall and straight under the stage, looking at him on the stage indifferently.Although there was no ups and downs in the other party's eyes, his eyes never moved away from him.

Lin Yuanye suddenly realized that he seemed to like being watched by Cheng Liao a little bit.

When the song reached the interlude, Lin Yuanye stopped and listened carefully to the rhythm of the drums beside him.The drummer sits behind the drum kit, holding two sticks loosely in his hands, and his movements seem to be very familiar.

Obviously for professional drummers, this is a relatively easy performance.

From the corner of his eye, he quickly glanced at the man standing under the stage. Lin Yuanye suddenly smiled, released his fingertips from the microphone, turned around and took the drum stick from the drummer's hand. Drumsticks are thrown lightly into the air.

The drum stick successfully flipped from head to tail in the air. Lin Yuanye stretched out his right hand and firmly caught the tail of the drum stick. He stepped on the guitar and played without stopping, landing a perfect rhythm on the big drum.

Lin Yuanye manipulated the two drum sticks in his hand, and after the drum sound broke briefly, he smoothly closed the rhythm of the guitar sound.

The baby face under the stage couldn't help opening his mouth and exclaiming, his eyes looking at Lin Yuanye were full of longing and longing.

His drum kit was actually a little stagnant, but even so, Lin Yuanye, bathed in bright lights, still looked bright and shining.

Cheng Liao just stood under the stage and looked at him, without giving a single word of evaluation from the beginning to the end, but the fingertips that were naturally hanging by his side moved uncontrollably, looking into his black eyes, as if There is a tidal wave hidden behind the moonlight, rolling silently and slowly.

Bearing the man's gaze, under the instigation of drunkenness, Lin Yuanye boldly tried the drum stick.

However, he himself has never learned how to play drums systematically, and his body memory from many years ago has long since disappeared. Lin Yuanye's attempt failed completely.The drum stick rolled down from his fingertips and rolled out all the way forward.

Lin Yuanye pursed his lips slightly, and turned to Cheng Liao who was standing in the audience, showing an embarrassed smile after failing to play cool.

Cheng Liao's heart twitched slightly with his smile, and the man stepped forward without moving his eyes, went to the edge of the stage and picked up the fallen drum stick.

Lin Yuanye consciously returned the remaining drum stick to the drummer behind the drum set, and returned to the microphone to sing honestly.However, from the corner of the eye, Cheng Liao, who had picked up the drum stick from the side of the stage, did not return the drum stick in his hand, but stepped onto the stage with strides, and took away the drummer's other drum stick.

He was slightly stunned, and he sang the lyrics back and forth, but his eyes couldn't help chasing to where Cheng Liao was.

The latter moved his wrist lightly, as if to get familiar with the feel quickly. His slender index finger and middle finger clamped the long drumstick, and at the same time, he spread his ring finger and little finger, and twirled the drumstick between his fingers.

Lin Yuanye froze on the spot without blinking, staring straight at the man, even forgot to sing the lyrics.

In the next second, the other party easily caught the drum stick that turned back counterclockwise, looked down with a little carelessness, exerted a little force on the wrist position, stepped on the rhythm of the song tightly, and struck out dense and powerful drum sticks with the drum stick in his hand. The drumbeat is coming.

The drum beat didn't seem to hit the drumhead and cymbals, but it seemed to hit Lin Yuanye's heart directly.It caused the heart in his chest, which was supposed to be safe and sound, to beat uncontrollably.

Lin Yuanye had never felt like this moment that his heart was so hot and surging after drinking.

This is probably the most ridiculous performance he has ever experienced.The singer temporarily interrupted the singing of the song because the drummer took all his attention away, and finally ended the unexpected performance silently in the joint backplay of the guitarist and drummer.

When he walked down from the applause, Lin Yuanye's heart rate still hadn't returned to normal.He stood on the steps beside the stage and waited for Cheng Liao. When he saw Cheng Liao put down his drumsticks and got up, and slowly walked towards him, he couldn't help asking softly, "Have you ever learned how to play drums?"

"I have learned it." Cheng Liao stopped in front of him and replied in a low voice, "Because I saw a performance I liked very much, so I searched for tutorials on the Internet."

Lin Yuanye subconsciously asked, "What performance?"

Cheng Liao glanced at him and stopped answering.

Sensitively sensing something from the other party's reaction, he restrained himself from asking further questions.Perhaps in their ordinary relationship today, the answer to the question was not enough to be able to tell him.

Regarding this little episode, Lin Yuanye didn't take it too seriously.He quickly raised his face again, showing a beautiful smile to the man in front of him, "Brother Cheng," he actually doesn't know the exact age of Cheng Liao, but sometimes, he also wants to imitate others and call him that way, " Can you teach me how to play the drums next time?"

He was standing exactly facing the lights next to the stage.From Cheng Liao's point of view, his face seemed to be so white that it was almost translucent.The flowing light fell on his pupils, like a little bit of starlight, and Cheng Liao couldn't help recalling the embarrassed smile he had when he accidentally dropped the drum stick.

"Yes." The Adam's apple rolled slightly, Cheng Liao looked at him dimly and replied.

You can also teach by hand.

Lin Yuanye nodded without noticing, "Then—"

Realizing that the other party was still looking at him, he suddenly stopped talking and raised his eyebrows in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Taking his gaze away from his face, Cheng Liao explained lightly, "It's probably because the wine was too strong."

"I'm a little drunk," he said.
