His slender fingers moved on the interlaced black and white keys, gently touching a set of chords, and the chords vibrated beautifully.
The sound of the zither was like a butterfly spreading its wings. It flapped its agile wings and flowed brightly. It was also like the distant sky beyond the frontier, settling with clear light.
Everyone in the restaurant was intoxicated, and even their meals stopped unknowingly.
Zhou Xiaobai's face was ruddy, like a peach blossom. She looked at He Yusheng, who was sitting in front of the piano, with infatuated eyes. At this moment, He Yusheng was the embodiment of romance and poetry in her eyes.
Soon, the music stopped.
"Good, well played."
It was unknown who clapped first, but the entire dining room erupted into a round of warm applause that lasted for a long time.
He Yusheng returned to his seat, and Zhou Xiaobai came back to his senses.
"Big Brother He, you play so well, even better than my teacher.”Zhou Xiaobai said.
"I can barely hear it. There's still a big gap between me and a true master.”He Yusheng said. He wasn't being humble, but it was the truth. A level 8 esper was only considered average.
"Brother He, how about you teach me how to play the piano in the future? I'll ask my parents to invite you to be my piano teacher.”Zhou Xiaobai looked at He Yusheng expectantly.
"I'm still in university, so I don't have the time. Moreover, learning the piano mainly depends on your own practice.”He Yusheng shook his head.
Zhou Xiaobai was a little disappointed.
"Alright, we're almost done. Let's go.”He Yusheng said.
"I'll pay the bill." Zhou Xiaobai stood up and said.
"I already paid just now." He Yusheng said. When he went to negotiate with the manager just now, he had already paid the bill. He was a man after all, so how could he really let a little girl treat him?
"Big Brother He, we agreed that it would be my treat.”Zhou Xiaobai complained.
"It's the same even if you treat me," He Yusheng said.
"I don't care. This time doesn't count. I'm going to treat you again.”Zhou Xiaobai smiled slyly.
"I'm going to officially start class tomorrow. You should be the same. No one has time, so forget it.”He Yusheng persuaded.
"Not tomorrow, but this afternoon.”Zhou Xiaobai said.
"You just had a meal in the morning and you're going to eat again in the afternoon?”He Yusheng said.
"It's quite boring to keep eating. Big Brother He, do you know how to ice skating? How about we go ice-skating?" Zhou Xiaobai thought for a moment and suggested.
"I know a little about skating, but I don't have skates.”He Yusheng said. In this era, people had to bring their own shoes to the skating rink. There was no rental of shoes at the skating rink.
"It's okay. I'll help you borrow it. What size are you wearing?”Zhou Xiaobai asked.
"Forty-two." He Yusheng said.
"Wait for me here. I'll be back in half an hour at most.”After Zhou Xiaobai finished speaking, he ran out without caring whether He Yusheng agreed or not.
"What a hot-tempered girl.”He Yusheng said.
Twenty-five minutes later, Zhou Xiaobai came back, panting. He was holding two pairs of skates in his hands.
"Big Brother He, this pair is yours." Zhou Xiaobai gave the big pair to He Yusheng.
"Let's rest first. We'll go to the skating rink later.”He Yusheng saw Zhou Xiaobai panting and knew that she must have run back and then come back.
"No need, we just need to walk slowly.”Zhou Xiaobai said.
"That works too." He Yusheng nodded.
The ice-skating rink wasn't close to Old Mo's restaurant. In addition, He Yusheng and Zhou Xiaobai walked slowly, so it took them almost an hour to get there.
Zhou Xiaobai went to buy two tickets first. This time, He Yusheng didn't rush to pay with Zhou Xiaobai. He was worried that Zhou Xiaobai would go back on his word and ask him to pay again.
They entered the skating rink with their tickets and changed into their skates.
He Yusheng didn't know how to ice skate, but his body was very coordinated, so he quickly learned how to ice skate.
"Ding dong! The host practices ice skating, ice skating 1, reward 1 yuan.”
Ice Skating: L1 (1/100)
"Ding dong! The host practices ice skating. Ice skating 1. Reward: 2 pounds of meat.”
……
"Ding dong! The host practices ice skating. Ice skating 1. Reward: 1 industrial voucher.”
……
He Yusheng's skating skills were improving rapidly. In just ten minutes, he had improved more than twenty times. This was mainly because of his good foundation.
Although Zhou Xiaobai had taken the initiative to come ice-skating, he didn't really know how to ski. He skated very slowly and kept swaying, as if he would fall at any moment.
"Let me teach you." He Yusheng slid to her side and said.
"Sure," Zhou Xiaobai smiled.
"Spread your legs slightly, shoulder width, and lean forward. This way, you can better find your center of gravity and use your arms to maintain your balance.”He Yusheng said.
Zhou Xiaobai practiced according to He Yusheng's instructions and quickly mastered the technique. His gliding became much smoother.
"Big Brother He, I've learned it." Zhou Xiaobai turned his head happily, but because of this, he lost his balance and fell backward.
He Yusheng was shocked. He hurriedly used a sliding shovel and used himself as a meat cushion, allowing Zhou Xiaobai to fall on his body.
"Hiss-"
Although Zhou Xiaobai wasn't that heavy, He Yu still sucked in a breath of cold air in pain.
"Big Brother He, are you alright?" Zhou Xiaobai hurriedly stood up and asked with a worried expression. With He Yusheng as a meat cushion, she was fine.
"I'm fine." He Yusheng waved his hand, signaling Zhou Xiaobai not to worry.
"Let me help you up." Zhou Xiaobai said.
"No need, I can stand up by myself.”He Yusheng stopped her. He was worried that Zhou Xiaobai would fall again.
With his current physical fitness, the pain was quickly alleviated. He used his hands to support himself and stood up.
"Big Brother He, it's all my fault for implicating you.”Zhou Xiaobai said guiltily.
"It's fine. I'm just a meat cushion for a beauty. If I don't do it, there will definitely be many people fighting to do it.”He Yusheng joked,
"Brother He, am I really a beauty?”Zhou Xiaobai asked with a blush on her face.
"No, you are a beautiful girl.”He Yusheng smiled. Zhou Xiaobai's little thoughts were so obvious. How could he not understand? It was just that Zhou Xiaobai was really too young, so he couldn't bring himself to do it.
"I will grow up." Zhou Xiaobai said indignantly.
"Alright, let's continue learning how to ice skate.”He Yusheng quickly changed the topic.
"Yes." Zhou Xiaobai nodded.
The two of them stayed at the ice skating rink until evening. He Yusheng was worried about Zhou Xiaobai's safety, so he sent her to her home before returning to school alone.
