Do not lie to me

Shang Xuechen bit his nails, and there were lines of Sichuan characters between his eyebrows. He really couldn't figure out the joints, "Could it be that Wen Ting and Zhou Yuan are also related? Shao Ling and Yao Cai'er died, and Hang Qing disappeared. They were both I met Wen Ting in the entertainment city."

Ji Shuping saw that he was thinking so hard, pointed his index finger between his brows, pulled his hand to his mouth and blew on his bald nails, "Don't think about it, aren't we here on a date today?" ?”

Shang Xuechen became anxious, "I can't help thinking that Wen Ting has something to do with you. I'm afraid something will happen to you too."

Ji Shuping squeezed his hand, "Don't worry, I'm not that easy to get into trouble. Don't think about it today, just concentrate on being with me first, stay with me tonight, and talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow."

Shang Xuechen wanted to say more, Ji Shuping took his hand and pressed it against his cheek, "Huh?" Shang Xuechen was made to sigh, "Got it, then pack up these desserts and save them for me to watch the performance later. Time to eat, if I can’t finish it, I’ll save it for tomorrow, as soon as I talk to you, I even forgot to eat my own chocolate muffins.”

Ji Shuping squeezed his palm, "Understood, let's go."

Shang Xuechen still couldn't eat his favorite chocolate, because everyone in the concert hall was engrossed in looking at the stage and listening to the piano performance. It is the disrespect to the stage, the offense to the people around listening to the music, and the blasphemy of the music.

Shang Xuechen took a look at the people around him. They were all in suits, leather shoes and small dresses. He was too out of place for a person who came in in casual clothes and brought food. To him, the piano performance could only be distinguished from good to good. There are no variations that demonstrate the unique technique of the pianist, after all, where can a person who can give a concert play the piano.He glanced at Ji Shuping beside him who was concentrating on the front of the stage, and couldn't help but sigh out of boredom.

Hearing this, Ji Shuping took his hand and asked, "What's the matter? Are you bored?"

Shang Xuechen twitched the corner of his mouth, "I usually listen to a song occasionally to relax, and I feel like I'm going to fall asleep after listening to this for more than an hour. But everyone around me is dressed like a celebrity, and I'm too embarrassed to take something to eat In order to refresh myself, I dare not even yawn."

Ji Shu looked at the front of the stage with a serious look on the plane, but kept playing around with Shang Xuechen's fingers, "In fact, everyone thinks the same as you. What's interesting on the stage, but this is The concert is also a social venue, so you have to show your manners and etiquette, and you can't show any impatience." Ji Shuping scratched Shang Xuechen's palm, Shang Xuechen looked down, and saw Ji Shuping pointed himself in a direction with his index finger, "The one obliquely in front is wearing glasses, the one with tears at the corners of his eyes. In fact, he usually doesn't wear glasses. He only puts them on every appreciation meeting or auction. I have observed that he is actually dozing off secretly, and the corners of his eyes are hanging. He held back the tears he held back and didn't yawn to hold back the tears."

Shang Xuechen glanced at it, and couldn't help laughing when Ji Shuping told him this.Ji Shuping pointed to the person on the other side with neat and shiny hair, "That person went to the bathroom three times, but he didn't go to the bathroom at all. He probably came back after smoking two cigarettes after being bored. "

Shang Xuechen approached him and asked, "How do you know?"

"The smell of hand sanitizer in the toilet here is different from the one outside. I can smell it. Every time the man got up and went out, he used to go to the toilet to say hello to the people passing by to apologize, but when he came back, the perfume on his body was very strong. , I just guessed that he actually went to smoke, and sprayed perfume to cover it when he came back. And the time in the middle may not be smoking, he came in with a greasy mouth, maybe he went to the cafe we ​​came to eat a bread mat abdomen."

Shang Xuechen chuckled and asked him, "Ji Shuping, you are so familiar, have you done this before? Is it the same way you play sloppy at the concert?"

Shang Xuechen didn't wait for Ji Shuping's answer, because the person sitting in front looked back at Shang Xuechen who couldn't help laughing, looked him up and down, and made a shush gesture to him contemptuously.

Shang Xuechen suppressed his smile, showing the unhappiness of being underestimated.Ji Shuping touched the back of his hand and asked him, "Unhappy? Do you want me to vent your anger for you?"

Shang Xuechen grabbed his arm, "No more."

"Is it because I am worried that my identity will be recognized by others, and that I have brought a male companion with me?"

Shang Xuechen's mind was hit, and his fingers trembled.Ji Shuping reached out to touch his face, "When I first met you, you were very casual. Didn't I tell you that I still have the money to let you go wild once or twice."

"Don't attract attention." Shang Xuechen didn't want to act recklessly, but he and Ji Shuping made some moves, and Xu Xueshi would probably know that he wanted to be with Ji Shuping and could only swallow his anger, "You said this It's a date between the two of us, a good date and don't let irrelevant people mix it up."

Ji Shuping looked at him touching his cheek, how could he not know his concerns, since he didn't want to make a big show, he should keep a low profile, just don't make people feel aggrieved.Ji Shuping lowered one shoulder and approached Shang Xuechen's ear, "Actually, this kind of person is the most impatient when listening to the concert. He can show his loyalty to music, and be superior to others, but he is the most annoying around him.”

Being teased by him, Shang Xuechen turned his face, the tip of his nose touched Ji Shuping's, and whispered, "I'm annoying him too."

Ji Shuping rubbed the tip of Shang Xuechen's nose with his nose, and asked him, "Calm down?"

Shang Xuechen was not very angry at first, but when Ji Shuping asked him, he wanted to tell Ji Shuping that he didn't care much.But he glanced at the dim surroundings, and slid down a little in the seat, "Ji Shuping, you said that everyone around is actually absent-minded. If we do something that we can't talk about, will they notice?"

Shang Xuechen saw the deep dimples on Ji Shuping's face, and heard him say, "I don't think so."

He watched Ji Shuping slide down against the seat, and when he was about to touch his cheek, he wanted to refute Ji Shuping, "You said they didn't pay attention to the performance, we are so bold, they must have noticed it from the corner of their eyes .”

"For the sake of etiquette, they will not turn their heads to look."

"What if?"

Ji Shuping grabbed Shang Xuechen's arm, pulled him closer to him, and said in front of him in a breathy voice, "What if? Leave him alone."

Shang Xuechen smiled and closed his eyes, waiting for Ji Shuping to give him a kiss, that's right, who cares.

This is the last piano piece. Shang Xuechen couldn't tell which world famous piece it was playing. He only knew that the person he met with his eyes closed was biting his lips gently and slowly. He was not impatient and just followed. The rhythm of this last song.He thinks that Ji Shuping is actually a romantic and caring person. Romance is in the kiss without hesitation, and caring is in the fact that he will fish up his body that keeps slipping on the seat.

At the end of the song, the tone didn't delay at all; after the kiss, it was continuous and endless, Shang Xuechen turned his mouth up and opened his eyes just in time to see Ji Shuping also smiling at him.At this time, the applause was ringing, and he saw the dimples on Ji Shuping's cheeks that had deepened. Ji Shuping pressed his forehead and said to him, "I used to be the one who was bored at the concert, so I watched people who were more boring than myself." People. Now that I know the fun of this, I want to take advantage of the applause here to celebrate for us."

Shang Xuechen touched his hand and asked him, "What are you celebrating?"

"Congratulations that I found you, we will be together in the future."

"Then," Shang Xuechen raised his face and kissed Ji Shuping's nose, "Congratulations to you, and congratulations to me."

The applause rang out for three rounds, Ji Shuping stretched out his hand to carefully trace Shang Xuechen's facial features in the applause, Shang Xuechen smiled and watched him touch it, and when the applause was the most enthusiastic, everyone around stood up, Ji Shuping also pulled him to stand up and applauded the stage together, "You have to do the final look."

Shang Xuechen didn't clap his hands twice, then put them down again, and looked sideways at Ji Shuping beside him. Ji Shuping applauded absently, and turned his head to see Shang Xuechen.Shang Xuechen looked down at his hand, and raised his eyebrows at Ji Shuping, which meant that his hand was empty and needed someone to hold it.

Ji Shuping put down his hand with a smile, and said to Shang Xuechen, "Aren't you afraid of being seen?"

"Didn't you say that I have the capital to let me be presumptuous?"

Ji Shuping intertwined his fingers, "Okay, show me how you want to."

Shang Xuechen cleared his throat, the voice was not loud, it was covered by applause, just enough for Ji Shuping to hear, "Thank you for blessing us and witnessing the moment we are together. I, Shang Xuechen, swear that I will love Ji Shuping." He turned to look at Ji Shuping, "I resupplied your playground and made up your birthday, and I want to solemnly renew my previous promise to you."

Ji Shuping looked at him deeply, and couldn't help but tighten his clenched hands, "I, Ji Shuping, swear that I will love Shang Xuechen well."

No one to witness to them yet they swore under the witness of all.

The performers on the stage bowed and bowed to the audience, and the applause gradually stopped.They were finally relieved, and they no longer had doubts and suspicions about each other.Shang Xuechen looked at the stage, a group of people came to the stage and the performers hugged and presented flowers, and took photos together.He asked Ji Shuping, "What are they doing?"

"Speaking of which, this is also a social venue, and there is investment behind the art. People who come to the concert can come here for the name, but it is not known who the name is for."

Shang Xuechen squinted at the people on the stage who secretly exchanged business cards for group photos, looked carefully for a while, and then said, "The one in the middle looks familiar."

Ji Shuping no longer has any other thoughts to deal with the people in the mall, he just wants to live a good life with the monk Xuechen, "I guess I have seen it in the newspaper. Let's go, I have reserved a table at the restaurant on the top floor, dessert after dinner It's chocolate cake."

Shang Xuechen followed Ji Shuping up, and before leaving the concert hall, he looked back at the stage, only to feel that the people on the stage surrounded by people taking pictures were too familiar.Ji Shuping turned back and pulled him, "What are you thinking about?"

Shang Xuechen calmed down, "It's nothing, I just think that someone should send us flowers after we have sworn oaths, that would be perfect."

Ji Shuping remembered that he didn't seem to have given Shang Xuechen flowers yet, "If you want flowers, I can give you a whole room."

"I don't want to waste money like this. Flowers are the least affordable. I just thought that today's atmosphere just needs a bunch of flowers, but it's okay, it's also very good now." Ji Shuping wanted to say something, Shang Xuechen only urged him , "Go, go, I'm hungry again."

The people taking pictures on the stage were still politely exchanging greetings. Someone avoided the group of sycophants and stood by the curtain to look at the gates on both sides of the upper floor. Someone caught up behind and asked, "What's wrong, madam?"

"I seem to have seen an acquaintance." The person called Mrs. looked away, "There should be no such entertainment tonight. There is still a battle to be fought tomorrow night. I should have a good beauty treatment and rest."

"But ma'am, this concert is sponsored by you. You should show your face at the first one. You have just returned to China, and you still have to show your face from the literary and art circles to be worthy of your identity and let the public slowly accept you. Now, find the media to distribute some positive news little by little, so that your image can be fixed and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The Shen family is busy looking for relationships now, and the Ji family's real estate project has also been put on hold. Now both of them seem to be headless You're as busy as a fly. Get your feet on the ground first, so that the Shen family and the Ji family won't have time to find a thug on the pen to stigmatize you if they're a step too late."

"Shen's family and Ji's family?" This seems to be a headache topic. After hearing this, the person called Madam rubbed her temples and twisted her ankles that were a little tired from standing in high heels for a long time. "This is really annoying. I have a headache, I can't let them block my son's future." She looked at the gate again, "I said it looks familiar, so it turns out that the kid from Ji's family has also come."

Just who is the person next to him?

"Ma'am, there will be a dinner on the rooftop to celebrate the success of the show. Tomorrow's costumes..."

"I'll pick out the clothes for the dinner party tomorrow, and find out my pair of red high heels." Someone looked over here, not sure if they wanted to take a group photo or chat, she put on a dignified smile, "After all, I'm the wife , should wear red." After speaking, he walked into the lively crowd in the middle of the stage.

Shang Xuechen followed Ji Shuping to the restaurant on the top floor, and the waiter took them to reserve a seat, which was a seat by the window where he could see the night view outside the window very well.Ji Shuping helped Shang Xuechen pull the chair to sit down, "I wanted to book a private room, but it was late, and the room here was booked for a celebration party."

Shang Xuechen sat down and looked at Ji Shuping who was sitting opposite, "It's okay, I like this position very much."

As soon as Ji Shuping sat down, he reached out to hold Shang Xuechen's hand, and he had to keep him in his palm all the time.Shang Xuechen propped his chin and let him hold his hand. He glanced at the candlestick in the middle of the table, "Candlelight dinner, so vulgar."

Ji Shuping took a long-nosed lighter and lit the candles on the candlestick one by one, "I can't think of any fresh and refined ideas."

"Have you thought about it?"

Ji Shuping nodded, "Yes."

Shang Xuechen was angry at his lack of wink, and turned his head to look out of the window. The candlelight on the dining table was reflected on the glass window, and two people holding hands were illuminated, "The night scene is very good. I thought the scene on the Ferris wheel was It was the last time I saw this city, and now I am full of joy." He turned his head to look at Ji Shuping, and said seriously, "Ji Shuping, I like your arrangement very much."

Ji Shuping's fingertips slid over his nails, touched his knuckles, and took the job of reporting food to Shang Xuechen, "The starter is salad, if you don't like it, I'll replace it with soup, which is just right To nourish your stomach, the foie gras trilogy will be served, followed by the steak. Their grass-fed ribeye steak with homemade vanilla sauce is very famous, and the cake is replaced with chocolate. Do you think there is anything you want to change? "

Shang Xuechen shook his head, listening to him ordering food for himself, he recalled the first time we met, he still reported food for him, but now he turned over and became the host, thinking about being proud, happy in his heart, and still saying casually, "I'll do whatever you arrange .”

"Then I let them serve?"

"it is good."

When the appetizers came, Shang Xuechen had corn soup. Ji Shuping asked him to drink it to moisten his stomach first, and then he ate salad with sour vinegar sauce.Shang Xuechen watched him eating and thought, no wonder Ji Shuping's muscles are well-proportioned and there is no excess fat. Thinking about his eating habits, it is rare for him to eat more carbohydrates, even if he likes sweets, he is very restrained.He couldn't help asking Ji Shuping, "Ji Shuping, don't you have any appetite?"

Ji Shuping put down the fork in his hand, "Yes, it's not obvious on you."

"I found that you are actually better than me. You hit the straight balls one by one." Shang Xuechen continued to drink the soup in the bowl with his head down, "You said that we are not far from middle age, if I come out before you Little belly, will you feel ugly when you see it?"

Shang Xuechen lowered his head and drank the soup. He didn't hear anyone answering. When he looked up, he saw Ji Shuping smiling alone, "I'm asking you something, what are you thinking by yourself?"

"I was thinking," Ji Shuping looked up at him, "You said we are still together in middle age, what will it be like then?"

Shang Xuechen just casually said that he doesn't actually have a concrete image of his future life in his mind, but according to his own temper, life probably won't be easy, "Maybe he will often quarrel over trivial matters in life."

After they finished eating the foie gras, the waiter brought the steak, and Ji Shuping signaled the waiter to put all the steak in front of him, so that he could help Shang Xuechen cut the steak.Ji Shuping lowered his head and cut the steak neatly, "Shang Xuechen, thank you."

Shang Xuechen was puzzled, "Thank you so well for what?"

"Thank you for your vision of our middle-aged life, which makes me confident that we can always be together."

Shang Xuechen raised his head and looked at Ji Shuping, "You are too satisfied." After speaking, the corners of his mouth gradually turned down. He remembered the relationship between the two families, Ji Shuping's identity, and the point that came to his mind The conception of future life has turned into anxiety.Shang Xuechen looked at Ji Shuping who was cutting steak for himself, could they really be together safely through middle age, old age, this life?
