Unlike Louis 'wild and passionate music style, Lilith's performance was gentle and soft, like a girl by the Seine reciting a poem under the starlight.
Su Qingjia finished playing the song and waited for Lilith's guidance. She glanced at the black witch. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she really couldn't imagine that this charming woman could play such a delicate and gentle tune.
Indeed, artists could not be understood by ordinary people.
Louis liked to let Su Qingjia play it over and over again until he caught the main point, while Lilith preferred to let the students feel it themselves after explaining. Just like now, after Su Qingjia played it once, she would use her own methods to teach some emotions and techniques to Su Qingjia.
There were many methods, but Lilith liked to tell stories more often.
Yes, storytelling involved all kinds of stories, from the upper class to the dark corners, from beautiful and delicate girls to old nobles. The characters in each story were different. Lilith told her that these stories were all fabricated by herself, but Su Qingjia did not think so.
Many times, she could clearly see that when she was telling the story, this cold and elegant lady would put down a little disguise and reveal a little softness. Her brown eyes would flicker with tiny spots of light, and her trembling eyelashes would reveal her fragility. At that time, she did not smoke mint cigarettes, but Su Qingjia felt that she was surrounded by a dense fog.
Su Qingjia felt sorry for her.
How many experiences did a woman with a story have to go through to be able to weave the past into beautiful fables so casually and open up the wounds in her heart to her students again and again?
She used her bright red lips, swaying skirt, and thin pointed high heels as her best disguise. Then, she poured the blood from her heart into the cocktail and drank it in one gulp before sending it off on the dance floor.
After class, Su Qingjia walked out of the school gate and prepared to go home.
The villa that Louis bought was nearby, a five-minute walk away.
Summer was approaching in Philadelphia, and the new impulse in the university town, which was full of youth, was awakening with the arrival of summer.
She wore a long dress with phoenix flowers printed on it and felt the heartbeat of the city.
Louis had previously renovated the villa, but at least he was able to move in with his bag.
The outer shell of the house was red, yellow, and blue. There was even a sculpture of building blocks in the yard, which was particularly eye-catching in this area. She really couldn't imagine that the boring Spanish nobles liked such childlike fun.
Su Qingjia silently complained about Louis's aesthetics again. He took the key and prepared to open the door.
"Bella? Is that you?" A young man's voice came from behind. His Spanish was very standard, and the clean middle and low notes had always been Su Qingjia's favorite.
Su Qingjia turned around. In the yard, Louis had personally planted many temperate-zone roses and hired a gardener to take care of them. In the past two years, they had grown very vigorously.
The sky in Philadelphia was not very blue, but the sun was still very bright. The young man's soft and clean blond hair danced with a familiar light. His eyes were blue-gray, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised. His left dimple emitted the sweet fragrance of honey.
Su Qingjia couldn't believe what she was seeing. Her heart was filled with thousands of thoughts and emotions. She walked towards the young man outside the courtyard, her voice trembling slightly."Carlos?"
Carlos walked up to her, his dimples deepening." It's me, Bella. It's me.”Carlos could no longer hide his joy when he saw this girl whom he had not seen for two years." Bella, it's been two years. I…" Carlos bit the tip of his tongue and asked," Are you okay?"”
In fact, he wanted to say that he missed her very much, but he was afraid that he would scare Bella, so he could only change the topic.
The girl had grown a lot. Although she only reached his chest, Carlos was very satisfied with the height difference. Her facial features had grown a little, and her amber eyes were like clear spring water, making her charming appearance look a little pure. Her black hair was still soft and smooth.
Su Qingjia was wearing a chiffon dress with phoenix flowers printed on it. Her waist began to bulge, as thin as a willow branch. Carlos resisted the urge to hug her.
Many thoughts flashed through the girl's mind, but in the end, they all turned into joy.
The young man who had been deliberately hidden in a corner in her memory had appeared in front of her inadvertently. Su Qingjia felt that her silent heart had begun to wake up.
"Do you think I'm okay?" Su Qingjia smiled at him with faint dimples. Then, she twirled in front of him and said," You also know that we haven't seen each other for two years.
Her skirt swayed like a huge phoenix flower. Carlos suddenly felt his face burning and wanted to scratch his head." I…" She was so beautiful, like an angel.
"It's been two years, don't you know how to speak? You're stuttering." Su Qingjia watched as he tried to shake his ears. It was as if honey had melted in his heart. Although he had grown taller and his voice had changed, his small actions told her that he was still the same as in her memories, still the sincere and sincere boy. She had so many things she wanted to say, but in the end, she could not say them. She could only use a teasing tone to make the soreness in her heart and eyes fade.
She did not want to cry when the boy saw her for the first time in two years.
That wouldn't be pretty.
"No, no, Bella, don't be angry.”Carlos didn't dare to pull her skirt. He didn't know what to do. In the end, he could only lower his head." Bella, I didn't mean not to call you. I was, I was..."
"If it wasn't intentional, could it be intentional?”Su Qingjia saw his flustered look and wanted to tease him. It was as if the passage of time had not brought them a sense of estrangement. There was no need to deliberately pretend to tease him.
Carlos looked up and then lowered his head. He stopped flapping his ears and said in a low voice,""No, I'm just, I'm just afraid that you'll ignore me.”
Su Qingjia was touched by his pure and innocent eyes. Fortunately, the villa area was quieter and she could hear his soft voice. The unhappiness of not being able to wait for the boy's call seemed to be unimportant. The tears that she had shed for him had become the nourishment of roses. Su Qingjia stood on her tiptoes and felt a myriad of emotions in her heart. Finally, she reached out and touched his golden hair." I'll forgive you this time because you came to look for me. But you have to promise that there won't be a next time."”
"I promise. Otherwise, I'll be a puppy.”Carlos raised his head, his attitude firm.
"Alright then, I'll be magnanimous and not fuss over it.”Su Qingjia looked at the young man in jeans and a white shirt. He was already very tall. The facial features of the little golden retriever that was still in puberty were a little deeper. His resolute eyebrows were very thick, and the curve from his chin to his neck was very beautiful. His Adam's apple was a sign that he was beginning to mature.
The teenager, who had already passed the stage of voice change, nodded vigorously, and his ears began to flutter again." Bella, this time, I want to tell you that I'm going to U19 to play basketball. Are... are you happy?”
If the young Carlos's voice was like a clear river, then Carlos's mid-low voice was like the tranquility of the lake and the depth of the sea. She smiled brightly and said,"Happy? Of course I'm happy. Hey, little genius, you've earned a small sum this time, right?”She suddenly realized that she really enjoyed listening to the boy speak. He really did not need a microphone or a barrier. He just directly hit her eardrums.
Carlos didn't explain. He nodded and said,""Yeah, the club is willing to give me a good weekly salary. Bella, I'll buy you a new pearl bracelet, a better and prettier one, okay?”
Su Qingjia did not speak. Her right hand unconsciously caressed the chain that she had worn for a long time. The luster of the pearl was still very warm. It could be seen that the owner took good care of it. There was no dust or dark stains on the chain. Countless nights when she suddenly thought of him, she would unconsciously spin this bracelet. It had broken once and was sent to the shop to be repaired.
The tears that she had tried so hard to hold back began to roll in her eyes again. She blinked and tried hard to hold them back, but she did not dare to look up and let Carlos see them.
The thin chain made her wrist look like the wings of a butterfly. Carlos blushed and said,""Bella, just treat it as a birthday gift to make up for it. There's no other meaning, okay?”
"Of course, Carlos. Remember to give me a beautiful one, okay?”Su Qingjia calmed himself down and smiled at him." You're about to become a rich man now. I want to cling to your thigh first. Don't forget me when I'm rich."”
Carlos pursed his lips and said shyly,""Yes, I am. I will, Vela. I will become the best player. Do you believe me?”
"Yeah, good luck. Carlos will always be the best.”Su Qingjia shook the key at him."Come in and have a seat. I made some afternoon tea snacks. Do you want to try them?"”
No one knew how much shock she was feeling in her heart as she teased him. After seven hundred days and nights, the innocent boys in her memories had all turned into this handsome young man in white. She felt very complicated and excited. She hid all her emotions under her smile.
Right now, she had yet to see her heart clearly. The youth had come too suddenly, causing her to be caught off guard and unprepared.
She could only ask tentatively,"Do you want to try it?"
Not daring to stare at the young man, Su Qingjia lowered his head and fiddled with the keys.
Carlos was about to answer when a Rolls-Royce stopped by the side of the road. The noble boy excitedly pushed open the door and walked towards them.
The boy was wearing a well-tailored suit. The fine cut and fine fabric all revealed that he was expensive. Carlos didn't know much about fashion or brands, but he knew that the boy must be from a famous family.
Out of instinct, Carlos stiffened his body and lowered his head.
Su Qingjia felt the change in the young man beside her. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to react.
Carlos 'blond hair seemed to lose its luster under the Philadelphia sky.
