the stars fell on his head

Chapter 44 Cooperation
Recently, the school ethos is strict, and even Shi Zhijiu is forced to wear school uniforms. The school uniforms in autumn and winter are all dark colors. The boys and girls are at the age of high spirits and are not afraid of the cold. Even if the autumn wind is bleak, most girls are still the same. He wears a white shirt with a dark blue skirt, and sometimes wears a knitted vest for the first half of his life, but his legs are still bare. The weather of seventeen or eight degrees is not too cold, but it is enough to make the bare skin tremble.

As soon as the school bell rang, a large number of students poured out of several teaching buildings, talking and laughing in groups with their schoolbags on their backs. After a day of studying, no matter how tired they were, they would definitely be full of energy when they returned home.

Today is He Shanshan's duty. As soon as Shi Zhijiu heard the ringing of the bell, she followed the large army out. Her thin body was weaving through the bustling crowd. She pushed aside the last group of people in front of her, got under a wisteria trellis, and then walked away leisurely. Youzai sat on the bench under the wisteria trellis and fiddled with the phone.

"I'm here at the wisteria trellis."

Xi Xiu: "Come right away."

Shi Zhijiu finished all the games, but Xi Xiu was still nowhere to be seen. When he said "immediately", it should be "immediately", why hasn't he disappeared for a long time.

There was a rustling sound from the big tree behind the wisteria trellis. She thought Xi Xiu was coming, so she stood up immediately, but she heard a few strange voices.

"Hey, have you heard? Xi Xiu is going to perform on stage this time."

"Yes, yes, I heard that too, didn't he say that he would never perform on stage?"

Shi Zhijiu thought there were only two of them, but he didn't expect a third voice: "He and I were junior high school alumni. At that time, he and Xu Anran matched well. They were the most concerned couple in the whole school. They were first graders and second graders. The two of them will perform on stage in every event, but in the third year of junior high... I don't know why..."

The first two students who spoke kept booing, making him reveal more, but the three of them were getting farther and farther away, and Shi Zhijiu gradually couldn't hear clearly.

His legs and feet suddenly became disobedient, and he stood up and walked forward. Before he could take two steps, his left hand was grabbed by someone.

"Who?!"

"I."

A cold and familiar voice.

"I thought you weren't coming."

"I have something to do, so I was delayed for a while." Li Mingzhe left some materials in the Academic Affairs Office, and asked Xi Xiu to pick them up before the teacher got off work, so he was late.

Shi Zhijiu didn't know how long he had stood behind her, let alone whether he had heard other people's comments.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say, but finally Xi Xiu broke the silence.

"Shi Zhijiu,"

"Huh?" She didn't dare to look up at him.

Xi Xiu wanted to say something, but hesitated for a moment and only said two words, "Let's go."

The two of them didn't speak a word along the way, and Xi Xiu took her to the Tianmu Music Shop as usual.

But this time I changed to a practice room. I opened the door and walked in. The environment is larger than last time, and the decoration is more elegant. There are many musical instruments in it. Shi Zhijiu looked over one by one, piano, violin...

When Shi Zhijiu turned around, she found that Xi Xiuren was gone, and she turned around several times without seeing anyone.

"Xi Xiu."

"Xi Xiu?"

Huh - where did the person go?

There was a knock at the door, Shi Zhijiu looked around, and Xi Xiu seemed to be walking towards her with something pink in his hand.

A pair of light pink ballet shoes was handed in front of Shi Zhijiu. Xi Xiu's hand was very big, and the dancing shoes were held in his hand, which looked a little small.

In the past, she especially liked dancing shoes and skirts, and there were all kinds of exquisite dancing shoes and skirts in the cloakroom, but now she dared not reach out to pick up the dancing shoes handed over by the boy she liked.

"I……"

Xi Xiu was not at all impatient, and waited patiently as if coaxing a child, with a gentle voice coaxing, "Do you want me to help me wear it?"

Shi Zhijiu was obviously taken aback, looked up at the boy who was nearly two heads taller than her, and said righteously: "Xi Xiu, you have changed."

Xi Xiu just smiled lightly, everyone said he had changed, maybe.

Shi Zhijiu took the dancing shoes and went to the side to change them. She didn't know what Xi Xiu was planning today.

I saw the man walking to those musical instruments, bent down to pick up a cello, and then sat down on the stool, "You can tell me if you have any concerns in the future, such as this time."

Xi Xiu played the cello very skillfully, obviously he was telling Shi Zhijiu that you want to dance "Death of the Swan", and I am not only good at playing the piano, but also happen to be able to play the cello.

Xi Xiu looked like I can play the cello well, and Shi Zhijiu's spirit suddenly dawned when he saw the expression that you can play to your heart's content.

Shi Zhijiu hadn't danced for a long time, her expression was dull, it was the first time she looked so clumsy.

It’s true that the things you love will erode your bones. Even though Shi Zhijiu hasn’t danced for nearly three years, he can still put on his dancing shoes smoothly, and his basic skills are still as solid as before.

She stood on one side to make the body, and Xi Xiu on the other side began to adjust the sound of the cello. The two did their own things without any sense of disobedience.

"I'm done, how about you?"

Xi Xiu put the cello between his legs again, picked up the bow with his right hand, "You can start anytime."

Shi Zhijiu doesn't know the cello, but he knows that Xi Xiu's performance matches the rhythm of her dance very well.

With soft arms and straight insteps, she fluttered her wings sadly like a white swan, stood on her toes and slowly stepped out, the cello played a melancholy melody...

It is a thirst for life.

There was nothing wrong with the first cooperation between the two. Not only Shi Zhijiu was a little shocked, but even Xi Xiu was also surprised. A perfect match is the description of the two of them.

Xi Xiu can't deny that he was really amazed by Shi Zhijiu's dancing posture today. He has played the piano for more than ten years, and has played solo and accompanied others, but the tacit understanding between Shi Zhijiu and him is self-evident.

The setting sun dyed the light-colored walls red and hit the tops of their hair.

Xi Xiu fell in love with music again because of Shi Zhijiu, and Shi Zhijiu also rekindled the dance factor in his body because of Xi Xiu.

The real tacit understanding never needs to be said much, for example, a glance and a smile at this time are enough.

Even Xi Xiu's voice was tinged with a smile, "Now, do you want to change someone to cooperate with me?"

Shi Zhijiu blushed rarely, and shook his head.

Like more and more deeply, shyness will also become more and more, this is Shi Zhijiu now.

Dance, Shi Zhijiu's life.

She recalled that if she hadn't taken the pair of dancing shoes from Xi Xiu that day, she might never be able to return to the stage in her life.

If Xi Xiu is Shi Zhijiu's heart medicine, then dancing is like poison, eating one's heart and bone, once taken, there is no turning back.

The mirror in the practice room showed the beautiful figures of the two of them, their fair faces were blushed, and the tulle curtain by the window fluttered slightly under the lure of the wind.

Peaceful and calm, the years are quiet.

Xi Xiu greeted her: "Come here."

"what happened?"

"What kind of dance dress do you like?"

"Huh?" He wouldn't want to buy her a dance dress, would he?

"Buy it for you."

really!

Shi Zhijiu always felt that this kind of happiness was caught off guard, and he dared not accept it.

"Ballet skirts have to be tailored, so it may not be easy to buy..."

Xi Xiu smiled and said nothing, looking at her feet, "Then do you think these dancing shoes fit well?"

Shi Zhijiu, who was still in a relaxed state, suddenly had ten toes tightly curled up in the dancing shoes, emmm...it seemed to fit her feet very well.

"How do you know how old I am?"

"Boys always have a boy's way."

It's only nine words, but Shi Zhijiu still failed to live up to being teased...

His current smile is clearly trying to lure Shi Zhijiu into committing a crime. It is obvious that she has been attacking him all the time. When will it be his turn to turn against the client!
It must not go on like this!
Shi Zhijiu rubbed his back molars viciously, with an evil smile on the corner of his mouth: "Xi Xiu?"

The boy's voice was different from the girl's, and he hummed.

"Your piano sound is more beautiful than your person."

Xi Xiu seemed to have expected her to say such a thing a long time ago, raised his eyebrows, and the old god said: "Although my piano skills are indeed good, in comparison, I am still more beautiful."

He firmly locked Shi Zhijiu's eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more obvious.

foul!It is simply a big foul! !
Hearing from a boy's mouth that he praised his beauty, and he still has a particularly stern and masculine temperament, Shi Zhijiu is not deeply involved, there are ghosts.

Shi Zhijiu now finds that what Luo Yang told him before was correct, once Xi Xiu is willing to speak up, no one can speak against him at all.

"Xi Xiu, I'm hungry."

"What do you want to eat?"

"Eat noodle."

"Don't you like noodles?"

Shi Zhijiu let out a chuckle: "But the person I like likes to eat!"

As long as it is something you like, I will try to like it, because it is you, so I don't care.

Xi Xiu felt that his heart was beginning to move.

Shi Zhijiu thought that he would let him go home to eat again, but he didn't expect to hear a different answer from him this time.

"Then take you to eat."

"okay!"

Shi Zhijiu quickly changed her dancing shoes, looking silly and happy like a kindergarten kid who gets a little red flower as a reward for coming home from school every day.

He followed Xi Xiu nervously, "Xi Xiu, your cello is so good!"

Shi Zhijiu looked at the boy beside him with bright eyes, his expression was full of pride and pride.

"of course."

"Ah! Xi Xiu, when did you become so immodest!"

Xi Xiu sneered, "I am such a humble person in your eyes?"

……

It does not seem.

After all, he was the one who made a review on the rostrum and said harshly that he didn't need to make up lessons.

As soon as the two stepped out of the door of the piano store, they saw He Shanshan and Xu Anran walking towards them.

Shi Zhijiu only felt that the two of them had never been separated except for class, and they were stuck together at any time, but seeing it made her feel a little uncomfortable.

"Yo, isn't this Shi Zhijiu?"

As soon as He Shanshan's words came out, Xu Anran looked up at them both.

Xu Anran originally came here to buy things, but he didn't expect to meet Shi Zhijiu and Xi Xiu, and the piano shop behind it was the place where Xi Xiu and Xu Anran used to practice piano every day after school.

Xu Anran called out to Xi Xiu, but Xi Xiu didn't answer her.

With just one look from He Shanshan, Shi Zhijiu knew what kind of moth this person was going to fix.

"It seems that Shi Zhijiu, in order to catch up with Xi Xiu, you really did everything you can! This is the place where An Ran and Xi Xiu fell in love, so you have the nerve to bring Xi Xiu here?"

"..."

Shi Zhijiu originally thought that the two of them would force a few words, but she endured it, but she didn't expect that He Shanshan would really cause a storm, and she vowed not to give up!
Then don't blame her for being rude.
