54. Inflammation

After leaving the Xu family, on the way back, there was a driver driving, and Qin Chengyu and Chen both drank some wine.

"I saw you follow into the kitchen, and you'll get off the table soon." Qin Chengyu sat in the back seat and leaned against the right, "What did you say to her?"

Chen was on the left, his eyes seemed to look out the window, "I didn't say anything."

Qin Chengyu asked with a smile: "You talk a lot at the table today, not like your style. Your rival asked you to go out for dinner, what did you talk to you? You talked to like this."

"Are you the third person? Why don't I tell you?" Chen said lightly.

"Hey, I have to be your rival in love to know if you say that? Then let me go and pursue Dongzhi tomorrow..."

As soon as these words were said, Chen's originally plain face became dark, "Don't joke about such things."

Seeing that he was really wearing his face, Qin Chengyu stopped laughing and retracted his words: "I'm sorry, I pretended that I didn't say it."

Chen's face cleared a little, Qin Chengyu was a little embarrassed. After a quiet moment, Chen took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed him a little, and the atmosphere improved.

The car drove onto the bridge, and under the night, the river was foggy.

Chen just took a cigarette and didn't lit it. His face was occasionally reflected on the car window glass.

Wen Cen asked him and he was invited to meet him. The only connection between them was that person. There was no friendship, and there was no need to waste time. He asked Wen Cen straight to the point of asking about Wen Cen's purpose. Wen Cen was leisurely and slowly said a lot of nonsense to him.

Then when it comes to those years, when it comes to those times he doesn't know after high school.

Wen Cen and Dongzhi have never been in a relationship. To be precise, they have never dated in a real sense.

In his sophomore year, Wen Cen contacted Miao Jing and went to Shengcheng where Dong Zhi was in search of her. He was not in college and was starting a business at that time and was doing business by himself, so he simply lived in Shengcheng.

Sometimes he would go to her school to find her, and make an appointment to have dinner and chat when he was free, but most of the time, Dongzhi was busy with part-time jobs and didn’t have that much free time.

Gradually, he would go to Dongzhi's part-time job and helped her relieve her several times.

The day when Wen Cen and Dongzhi were "together" was when she told him that she was about to study in Manhattan. It happened that they were in a collision with the time he planned to confess his love.

Dong Zhi first told him about his study abroad news, but he was caught off guard. So when the clerk arranged in advance came up to send gifts and sang, they looked at each other and fell into an embarrassing situation.

Wen Cen said that he and Dongzhi had been chatting in the car for a long time that night. He said to Dongzhi: "You should study abroad well, this is a good opportunity."

Then he confessed to her formally.

He didn't want Dongzhi to reply, nor did he need any agreement. He said that my feelings are my business, and I don't want you to have a burden. Before that day, there was a little expectation that would be accepted, but now, I repeat it seriously, just don't want to leave any regrets.

Chen remembered clearly that when Wen Cen was talking that day, his fingertips slowly knocked on the table and told him: "I was still a little uncomfortable at the time, so I joked that I would accept it. Before I took her back, I would think we were together. Even if we broke up after getting off the car, I wouldn't be so embarrassing... I knew she felt sorry, but it was not necessary. She took my joke seriously. When I agreed, I was stunned for a moment."

What they called together was just the way she was sent home.

Chen stared at the car window in a daze, remembering Wen Cen's question: "When she got off the car and said goodbye, she suddenly cried and said thank you. Do you know what she thanked me? I know. She thanked me for being gentle and understanding, and did not force her to make things difficult for me, and also for myself."

I don’t remember whether there was an answer at that time. It seems that Wen Cen said a lot about the whole conversation with Wen Cen.

Wen Cen said to him: "Sometimes I really want to exchange positions with you. Whether you advance or retreat, she will feel a little upset because of you. Unlike me, she just feels embarrassed. If she takes a step back, she will not regret it."

"Do you understand clearly?" Wen Cen asked, "Do you really don't understand?"

Finally, it was the order that Wen Cen bought. The lazy boy in high school wore a suit and now became majestic.

He stood up and picked up his glass, took his last sip of wine, and put it down the glass, saying, "If she liked me, I wouldn't be here today."

...

After passing the bridge, the scenery outside the car window became gorgeous, and neon lights decorated the night colorfully.

"If tomorrow is the last day, what do you regret the most?"

Qin Chengyu almost thought he heard it wrong, "...ah?" He made sure the voice he heard just now came from Chen Ju, and he paused, "The most regrettable... I may, well... I didn't accompany my parents for too much, and my career was not good enough..."

"Oh yes, there is also the grandson who scratched my new car last time but couldn't find it!" Qin Chengyu slapped his thigh and cursed hatefully, "It's so fucking annoying..." After cursing, he turned around and threw the question back, "Where are you?"

"I don't know." Chen said.

"You don't know you're asking me..." Qin Chengyu started to complain.

Chen was stunned.

There are too many things I want to do again, and even completely erase, each one is a needle tip piercing the heart.

Dongzhi is one of them.

He didn't know how deep and heavy it was, but he could be sure that this feeling was real, real, and never stopped.

If tomorrow is the last day, I wonder if she will feel regretful.

They are no longer Dongzhi and Chen Ju who are shoulder to shoulder, but Professor Chen and Dawn Dong who are going their own way.

...

The tour is Dong Zhi's tour, but the performance is not a matter of one person, and it brings together the efforts of the entire team. Dong Zhi was preparing for the third show, and the organizer suddenly contacted her and said that she needed to arrange for some activities.

"Does it mean an interview?"

"No, although you will ask some questions, it is not the same as an interview."

After a face-to-face conversation with the person sent by the organizer, Dong Zhi asked: "What's the difference? I want to know the specific content. If you don't say it, it's hard for me to agree."

The person in charge said: "That's right. We contacted a TV station and sent someone to the backstage at that time to be considered as a record of behind-the-scenes outside the performance." "Back-and-scenes? Similar to a documentary form?"

"Yes, but not that serious, it will be a little relaxed and then a little more natural."

Dongzhi felt that this was fine, "Yes."

"That's right, if you come to the TV station, there may be several artists..."

"Artist?" Dong Zhi frowned.

"Not too much, two or three, all young actors." The person in charge hurriedly said, "A few days after the TV station comes to film, they will come to the backstage together. You only need to interact a little, which is actually similar to an interview."

Dongzhi frowned and said nothing.

The person in charge said: "Teacher Dong, don't worry, we mainly focus on performances and will not delay normal arrangements. We are doing this performance and promotion. In a short period of time, we are also your agent in China. We definitely hope that your performance will be smooth and develop well. We discussed with the TV station to let these young people come, and hope to promote the violin art more among young people. The fans of these artists are all young people..."

"The violin audience has nothing to do with age." Dongzhi interrupted him, "This art has its own position and market, so there is no need to rely on who to promote it."

"I know I know, we don't mean that. Teacher Dong, don't get me wrong." The person in charge said, "When I will cooperate with the publicity online, the first thing I need to do is to consider maximizing the effect of the tour, right?"

Dong Zhi was silent.

The person in charge said: "Look, some singers and pianists are occasionally active on TV, and many of them have brought some extra benefits to their field. In addition to the original violin listeners, we also hope that more people in China can focus on this part... thriving, right, thriving!"

Dongzhi was reluctantly convinced: "In a moderate range, I can cooperate with your arrangements. In a short period of time, your company is indeed responsible for my domestic brokerage affairs. I know this, but I also hope you don't be too entertaining."

"I understand! We know that you are not in the entertainment industry. We guarantee that you will not arrange activities for you like the artists, so you can perform with peace of mind!"

The person in charge repeatedly promised that she would not delay her piano practice and performance. Dongzhi sent him out, and he repeatedly thanked her and asked her to go back.

After seeing him off, Ke Ya immediately took out various electronic equipment to prepare for the various arrangements she was about to change.

Dongzhi asked someone to make two pots of tea, one pot was delivered to Ke Ya in the study, and the other pot was placed in the living room. After drinking a cup, she got up and went to the practice room on the second floor of the apartment to practice piano.

...

Dong Zhi started a tour in China, which caused fluctuations in the domestic arts and music industry, which was a big news for experts. As she finished two performances, a lot of related news was published on the Internet and paper media.

But in terms of popularity at the public level, it is indeed not as popular as a hot news among popular stars.

The TV station planned a backstage visit for three periods of tours. After the first period was broadcast, it became extremely popular news in cooperation with online publicity. Of course, many young star-chasers were not interested in violins and followed this just to see their idol appear on the show.

There are four people in the "Assault Guest Group", three male artists and one female artist. Dong Zhi learned from Ke Ya that the female artist and one of the male artists took on this job because a drama they worked together was about to be broadcast. In the drama, they played the violin student who pursued their dreams in the Conservatory of Music. In short, it was for publicity.

Another male artist is a young singer-songwriter and is about to release a new song. In private, Koya explained to her in a blunt way: "It is probably his agency that thinks that such a job is related to a violinist and will help to 'improve the style'."

The last male actor is not very old and has just debuted a few years ago. A while ago, he became a popular drama and played the second male actor in the drama. It was just when he had some presence.

The show was broadcast, and I don’t know which sharp-eyed person took a few pictures. The content was that when I was going down the stairs, the male actor gentlemanly supported Dong Zhi’s arm and posted a Weibo post—

"Don't you think this pair is a bit easy to mess with? The picture is so beautiful!"

When Dongzhi received a call from Ke Ya, he told him: "Something went wrong."
