Chapter 1130: Chapter 1130: Heart-Piercing Dog Food
Zhou Mi’s seat was in the third row, an area reserved for staff. Lin Tian gently placed her on the chair, then sat down beside her to accompany her in watching the concert.
It was only then that he discovered Zhou Mi had a very childlike side, sitting quietly with starry eyes fixed on her idol on stage, humming a few lines from time to time, simple and easily satisfied.
"Do you know, Pan Die said she wanted Mr. Zhou to write a piece for me as well, so I could release a single. But the precondition is that I need to learn to play an instrument first." Zhou Mi leaned slightly, wanting to be a bit closer to Lin Tian, even able to catch a whiff of his scent. For a girl endlessly in one-sided love, this was a luxury.
"Really? What do you want to learn?"
"I want to try the piano." Zhou Mi sighed long, saying, "I heard a few days ago you learned it in just over ten minutes. How does your brain even work?"
Zhou Mi looked at Lin Tian’s face, chiseled with bronzed skin without a blemish, smooth as a baby’s.
The more she got to know this guy, the more perfect she thought he was. How could anyone else even catch her eye?
"Do you want me to teach you?" Lin Tian smiled slightly, seeing through Zhou Mi’s thoughts.
"How about it? Would Mr. Lin be willing to accept a disciple like me, sweet or salty, who can handle the drawing room and the kitchen?" Zhou Mi blinked and asked.
Lin Tian smiled wryly. "I only know two or three pieces, and I can’t even remember their names. I understand even less of the basics of the piano than you do, so how could I teach you? Don’t be surprised, I just have a good memory and memorized the order of the keys by heart."
Seeing her surprised look, Lin Tian asked, "Hard to believe?"
"I believe it!" Unexpectedly, Zhou Mi said like an ultimate die-hard fan, "I heard when you were in high school, you were at the bottom of your class, and before the final exams, you studied for a month and became the top scorer. Apart from having an insanely good memory, there’s no other explanation."
Lin Tian just smiled without responding, some things are hard to explain.
At that moment, Jiang Pan Die introduced another guest for tonight—Zhuo Ming.
Though Lin Tian didn’t like this guy, he had to admit, his sunny face is the type girls like, naturally stirring up a throng of fan-girl screams.
Zhou Mi, however, frowned and said, "I don’t even know why this guy is here, apart from yelling a few times, he can’t really sing."
When you like someone, you tend to like everything about them, and vice versa.
It wasn’t just Zhou Mi who didn’t like Zhuo Ming, many male compatriots didn’t either, since they aren’t interested in handsome guys without talent.
With no skills, always seeking attention, and fans who love to flaunt his looks, this often leaves passersby with a feeling of disgust. With all the insults online, who would still like him?
Thus, when Zhuo Ming took the stage, the applause and cheers mostly came from some ’appearance association’ girls, because aside from his face, Zhuo Ming really had no other highlights.
After a song, the applause was continuous. Naturally, most was for Jiang Pan Die.
Zhuo Ming looked a bit embarrassed, seeing the explosive intensity of that song’s debut, some fans nearly screamed themselves hoarse, showing just how insanely popular it was.
But then, what about him?
Aside from applause, the fans were all shouting Jiang Pan Die’s name. Zhuo Ming felt as transparent as air.
If no one else were here, he would surely start cursing.
Next, the two exchanged a few pleasantries and some harmless jokes on stage, leaving the spotlight to Zhuo Ming while Jiang Pan Die needed to change into a new costume backstage.
Later, Lin Tian discovered this guy wasn’t entirely useless aside from his looks. His performance of "Arrow Rain" was decent, at least capturing the feeling of being involuntarily caught in the midst of a tumultuous life.
After the performance, Zhuo Ming bowed and exited the stage. When Jiang Pan Die reappeared, he was wearing a long black robe, the hood connected to the collar hiding his handsome face. Combined with the lighting effects, he quite resembled a killer.
Time ticked by, quickly reaching the halfway mark. Lin Tian returned backstage; it would be his turn to sing solo after two more songs.
...
Snap!
The stage lights suddenly went out, plunging the area into darkness. This caused another panic among the audience, everyone assuming that the stage’s power had gone out again.
Wow~
Suddenly, a white spotlight shone down, revealing a figure in a strapless red rose gown. With a closer look at the beauty whose skin outshone snow, her grace was astonishingly beautiful at ease.
And seeing that gown, countless girls screamed. For this gown was clearly a wedding dress! Moreover, it was the wedding dress every girl dreamed of. All over the skirt, intricately woven cotton roses were visible, each one lifelike—romantic and beautiful.
Many assumed the beauty on stage in the ’wedding dress’ was Jiang Pan Die, but when the beauty raised her head and her face appeared on the screen, the fans went silent with surprise.
Huh? Who is she?
She’s so beautiful!
Beauty, a noun, springs from humanity’s most fundamental judgment in the heart, a deep-seated joy drawing infinite appreciation.
Just now, everyone was truly captivated.
The audience was filled with expressions of amazement, a scene sure to be etched in many memories for a lifetime, and bringing a knowing smile even when recalled while sitting on a rocking chair in old age.
At that moment, another beam of light shone down.
A black grand piano stood majestically.
Lin Tian sat at the piano, dressed in a white suit with a rose tucked in the collar. Supported by the black grand piano, his smiling face genuinely resembled every girl’s childhood Prince Charming.
Whoo~
The audience erupted with whistles, cheers, and mixed phrases of ’admiration’.
Many also heard the sound of their hearts breaking, their idols, male and female, appearing together wearing ’wedding attire’.
This dog food is truly heart-wrenching!
Lin Tian chuckled, automatically blocking out external noise and focused intently on playing the piano.
As the first note drifted out, Liou Qingcheng on center stage smiled lightly, a casual smile that could indeed ensnare souls.
Gradually, the audience fell silent, all eyes fixed on the stage. Watching that breathtakingly beautiful woman dance gracefully, each gentle slow movement captivated every heart.
"I came from spring, you speak of parting in autumn; promised not to be sad over you, but how can my mood be unaffected..."
Liu Ruoying’s version of "Mad for Love" evokes a sense of heartbreak, while Jin Zhiwen’s version conveys a hysterical, heart-wrenching feeling.
But when Lin Tian sang it, it felt like pink cotton candy, soft and cute, a sweetness that lasted all day.
