Chapter 87
Mu Mian's body froze, but she didn't move, she just stood in the corner, huddled between his chest and the wall, trying to survive.

A warm, wet palm flowed all the way into his heart.

Lian Qinghe lowered his head, his eyes fell on her clenched lips, he squinted his eyes, and stretched out his hand to turn her body around. Before a few curious eyes caught him, he pressed her face against her. chest.

"I'm sorry, I was in a bad tone just now, I was impulsive, I apologize to you." His voice was not loud, but everyone in front of the elevator could hear clearly.

It turned out to be a quarrel, no wonder Mr. Lian's fiancée cried so aggrievedly.This kind of thing is very common between lovers, and the quarrel will last a lifetime without knowing it.

However, looking at Lian Qinghe's appearance, it was hard to imagine that he would accommodate a woman so much.

The elevator comes, the elevator goes.

There were many surprised eyes around her, but Lian Qinghe didn't care, and pressed his palms on the back of her head until she had enough to vent.

Finally, Mu Mian lowered her head, took a step back silently, and opened the distance between the two, "I should apologize." After crying for a long time, her voice was hoarse, like sand and stones grinding on his heart, itching.

"You're right. I was the one who escaped. I didn't dare to touch the cello, and I didn't dare to think about it. Because..." She took a deep breath, raised her head, her eyes were red, but she still tried to show him A smile: "Because, when I participated in an important competition, my dad...he..."

He left her forever - she wanted to say this with a smile, but unfortunately, she couldn't.

He lowered his head, trying to force back the tears, but just let it flow back into his heart.

At this time, there was a sigh above his head, soft and inaudible.

Lian Qinghe patted the top of her head with his big hand, like an elder, "You are no longer a little girl, you should try to grow up."

Kapok clenched her hands tightly, choking with sobs: "I've been working hard..."

A person.

He shook his head, even though she couldn't see it.

"Compared to giving up, regretting the beginning is the scariest thing."

Mu Mian's heart stings, this is what she said to Nie Yong'er just now...

"You have already lost the two most precious things in the same day, are you still afraid of having them again?"

Kapok raised her head in a daze. At that moment, she seemed to hear her father's proud voice——our family's kapok is the best!

She raised her head and looked at him, her eyes washed by tears, her cheeks flushed from crying, her nose swollen, all poured into his limited field of vision undefended.She helplessly wanted to find a little direction, and subconsciously gave all her trust to him, and even Qinghe's sight began to change, as thin as a feather, floating gently with her.

He held her right hand that was trembling without knowing it, and held it tightly, "Can you promise me one thing?"

Kapok was still looking at him, the trust in his eyes was gradually shaking his original desire to plunder.

He smiled, "After two months and seventeen days, play a cello for me."

Kapok took a step back in astonishment, "I..."

"You can't say no, and you can't refuse." He took a step closer, as if he was born with strength, and firmly trapped her between his chest and the wall, "Shang Mumian, your life is not just one Qian, if you don't even cherish yourself, then you are even less qualified to love others. Because that is not the complete you, how can you tell whether your love is complete?"

Kapok was forced to retreat by him, the first step was purgatory, the next step was a cliff, she was so difficult, she wanted to find a support point, but found that it was really difficult.

"I can't..." She shook her head with a painful expression.

"Are you denying me?" Lian Qinghe suddenly said coldly, stepped back slowly, and looked at her like a stranger.

"You're denying my vision, you're telling me that Lian Qinghe, who I'm interested in, is just a cowardly woman who only knows how to escape." He shook his head, unable to hide his disappointment, "If that's the case, that's fine , you let me see myself clearly. It turns out that I am not omnipotent even Qinghe."

He turned around and left, no longer providing her with a temporary safe haven, and even refused to look back.

Kapok leaned against the wall, pursed her lips tightly, and tried her best to restrain the surge in her eyes.

Why do you speak so badly of her?Even if she is timid and cowardly, why use her as an excuse to belittle yourself?Doesn't he know what a wonderful person he is?It was more uncomfortable for him to say this than to scold her severely...

In the general manager's office, Lian Qinghe was standing in front of the window, smoking a cigarette irritably.

When Xiao Qin opened the door and came in, he was slightly stunned: "Hey, Mr. Lian, haven't you quit smoking?"

Lian Qinghe glanced over lightly, and the thin layer of smoke dissipated, revealing a sharp edge.

Knowing that he asked the wrong question, Xiao Qin hurriedly lowered his head, "That...Miss Shang is gone."

He turned his head again, and asked in a cold voice, "Walking away?"

Xiao Qin gave an "um" with an awkward expression, held it back for a long time, finally couldn't hold it back, and whispered: "President Lian...Although I don't know what happened, you should go and coax Miss Shang anyway, she is crying so much But sad! This woman is a stingy animal. Once she has a grudge, she will really recite it over and over in the future! It's like wearing a magic spell on her head, and she will take it out when she is unhappy One thought! It will really give you a headache!"

Xiao Qin was completely emotional, this was his bloody and painful lesson!

Bian Qinghe glanced at him and said slowly, "She's not that kind of woman."

Xiao Qin was dumbfounded, unable to believe that such naive and innocent words could be said by his boss!

It's over, Mr. Lian is hopeless.

When Xiao Qin came out, Nie Yonger just walked out of the meeting room with her cello on her back.

"Assistant Qin!" She stopped him and asked anxiously, "Sister Mu Mian... What's wrong? She doesn't seem very happy, did I do something wrong?"

Xiao Qin smiled and comforted: "It's not your fault, there must be some misunderstanding between Miss Shang and us."

"President Lian?" Nie Yonger asked anxiously, "Will that affect Sister Mu Mian?"

Xiao Qin looked at her suspiciously: "It's normal for prospective couples to quarrel, and it shouldn't have any impact."

Prospective couple?
Seeing Nie Yong'er's puzzled expression, Xiao Qin understood, smiled and said, "You don't know yet, Miss Shang is Mr. Lian's fiancee and our future boss wife."

Nie Yong'er was taken aback: "Really? But, you can't see it at all! Sister Mu Mian is so kind!"

"Well, Ms. Shang is very low-key, she doesn't have any airs, and our staff thinks highly of her."

After sending her to the elevator and confirming the time to meet next time, Xiao Qin left.

Nie Yong'er immediately envied Shang Mumian, who has her own career and such an excellent fiancé, this is the winner in life!

However, speaking of it, where did you hear the name "Shang Kapok"?

Nie Yong'er thought hard, but couldn't figure it out.

At this time, the phone rang, and she answered it as she walked into the elevator, "Professor Yang... yes, this is over... okay, I'll go back to school right away..."

The moment she hung up the phone, she suddenly remembered——

It's Professor Yang!

That's right, Professor Yang once mentioned the name "Shang Kapok"!
In that class, Professor Yang said with some sadness that among all his students, there was only one who was the most talented.He took the stage at the age of five, became famous at the age of seven, and enjoyed various auras and reputations since he was a child.Moreover, she is the least diligent of all the students. She doesn't like to practice the piano, but she always remembers the score the fastest. No matter how difficult the piece is for her age, as long as she listens to it once, she can rely on her memory pull out……

Nie Yong'er still remembers the proud look on Professor Yang's face when he mentioned this student.

She hastily quickened her pace.

-

Sitting on the bus, Mu Mian put her head against the window, plugged the earphones into the phone jack, hesitated for a long time, and finally found a song.

She put on the earphones, and soon, a familiar melody sounded inside - Overture No. [-], which was supposed to be her competition track back then.

Hearing it again, time seemed to be frozen, and the fingers couldn't help jumping up.With the shaking of the bus, time began to move forward, and she was brought back to that era in the pure and beautiful timbre of the cello...

1997 years.

In a primary school auditorium, a youth cello competition is underway.

Yang Hao walked into the backstage quickly, waving among a bunch of children waiting to take the stage, "Shang Kapok?"

A fair girl with a ponytail turned her head, and the aqua blue dress on her body perfectly matched her skin.She grinned and ran towards him, "Teacher Yang!"

Looking at the proud student in front of him, Yang Hao patted her small shoulders to cheer her up, "Don't be nervous when you're on stage, you just need to show your usual practice level. And..." He paused, deliberately He lowered his voice and said, "One of the judges below is a teacher from the Paris National Conservatory of Music... Do you know what the teacher is going to say?"

Kapok patted Yang Hao's arm like a little adult, blinked his eyes, "I know, I know! When did your precious apprentice embarrass you?"

Yang Hao laughed, "Okay, let's go quickly."

"Oh!" Mu Mian got into the waiting line, and Yang Hao hurriedly left the backstage.

Seeing this scene, the short-haired girl at the end of the line lowered her head in frustration, and couldn't help but hold the cello in her arms tightly with both hands, so as to block the whitishly washed sportswear on her body.

In Teacher Yang's eyes, there will always be only one Shang Kapok known as the "Genius Cello Girl"!
Different from the nervousness of other contestants, Xiao Kapok was extremely relaxed.While there was still some rest time, she sneaked into the next stage lighting control room.Sitting relaxed on the chair, her two little feet dangled leisurely.

The two staff members did not notice her, but focused on watching the TV news.

"After the firefighters arrived at the Xinghua Building, they immediately propped up the air cushion... The man hijacked a 6-year-old boy, and the police negotiators were negotiating on the spot..."

Xiao Mumian turned her head inadvertently, when she saw the picture on the TV, her round eyes suddenly froze——

"According to an insider, the man surnamed Mu committed a kidnapping case because he owed a huge debt due to investment failure..."

The picture on the screen kept shaking, and the camera gradually zoomed in, and the man standing on a dozen-story building could barely be recognized.His body has already jumped over the fence, holding a little boy on his chest, with a pair of little feet hanging in the air.Behind them are negotiators and a dozen firefighters and police officers.

The heart-piercing cry of the little boy touched the hearts of the onlookers under the building, and they all stared nervously.

Two staff members kept cursing in front of them: "It's really a crime! If you want to die, you can die by yourself, why are you dragging the child with you?"

"He must be a psychopath! It's none of his business to lose money by running his own business, and he has to jump off a building with his son! How can there be such a scumbag!"

Xiao Mumian stared blankly, not even noticing that her beloved cello had fallen by her feet.

The staff in the monitoring room were taken aback, only to find the little girl behind them, they immediately stood up and said, "Student, this is a work room, you can't come in casually!"

Xiao Mumian had a pale face, his mouth was slightly open, and his horrified gaze was firmly fixed on the TV screen——

Holding the child in his arms, he slowly stepped forward with his left foot...

"what!"

Everyone below screamed in unison.

In the control room, more and more people gathered in front of the TV, and there was also a burst of exclamation.

"Ah! How cruel!"

"It's disgusting! Even a child is not spared! Does he have no children? Are you not afraid of retribution in the future if you do such an outrageous thing?"

The insults from all around reached Xiao Kapok's ears word by word.

Like a curse, lingering.

On the picture, the man suddenly fell down, "Ah—" There was another exclamation all around.

But at this moment, a firefighter caught him!

Finally, the little boy was saved...

Seeing the black shadow falling rapidly on the TV screen, the monitoring room was eerily quiet.

Everyone held their breath until they vaguely heard a "bang", and then let out a long breath, either regretful or relieved, and then dispersed.

"Kapok! Shang kapok!"

Yang Hao pulled away the crowd, and saw Xiao Mu Mian standing there blankly at a glance. He walked over a few steps and said anxiously: "Mumian, why are you still here? Hurry up, get up!"

He had no time to care about the news that was still being broadcast on the TV behind him, picked up the cello in one hand, and led her out with the other, "You must not have any pressure, just relax and play at your usual level is enough! "

"Competition..." She murmured two sounds.

Yes, she is going to compete.

Dad said that as long as she won No.1, he would take her to ski... By the way, Dad also promised her that he would prepare a special Christmas gift for her.

Yes, competition, competition... she wants to compete.

Standing under the spotlight on the stage, her mind suddenly went blank, and her hand holding the bow trembled.She couldn't hear what the judges on the opposite side were saying!

In the bewildered sight, he vaguely saw Yang Hao shouting something to her.

can not hear!
She can't hear it all!

The only thing that lingers in my ears is the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, which has been amplified countless times.

boom--

The bloody face, the flying limbs, and the satisfied smile at the corner of her mouth... All these scenes were forced into her little head at this moment.It has become a mural engraved deep in memory, which cannot be erased.

The light suddenly became very dazzling. She squinted her eyes and gradually saw the judges shaking their heads frequently. She saw Teacher Yang tugging at her hair in disappointment, and she saw the surprise of her companions...

The bow of the piano suddenly fell, pointing feebly at the ground...

When you look at the abyss long enough, the abyss will look back at you.

On that day, Kapok lost the two most important things in her life.
