191 [The beginning of the story: a long, long time ago]

It's already very late.

The guests who came to the cocktail party also said goodbye in groups of three or three and left.

At the entrance of the Hilton Hotel, before leaving, Yo-Yo Ma smiled and said, "Mr. Li, we agreed to visit my house in a few days. I think my father will be very happy to meet a domestic musician like Xiang you."

"Mr. Ma, you are polite. Speaking of which, Mr. Ma is a senior. I am a first time in the United States and I should visit him now." Li Yange nodded, thinking that I had to bring something to visit Ma's house.

"Then we'll make a decision." Speaking of this, Yo-Yo Ma suddenly remembered something, pondered for a while, and asked, "Mr. Li, I don't know when you are going to the United States this time?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the middle of this month. After all, the Spring Festival is about to be celebrated, and the things here are almost done. I have to rush back to celebrate the New Year."

It is already early January, and Li Yange's role has basically been used up. If nothing unexpected happens, he will accompany Cheng Shaojun to play around these days, visit Yo-you Ma's father, and once the Oscar nomination is announced, he can leave and go back.

"Middle of the moon? That's still time." Yo-yu Ma said to himself.

Li Yange wondered: "What's the time?"

"Oh, nothing."

Yo-you Ma smiled and shook his head, "Then I will go back to Mr. Li first, and I will hold a banquet at home and wait for you to come."

"Okay Mr. Ma."

After saying that, Li Yange watched Ma Yo-you get in the car and leave, and turned back to the hotel. He did not go to the banquet hall again, but took the elevator all the way to the suite upstairs.

It was already past ten o'clock and Cheng Shaojun was not asleep yet.

"It's so late, why haven't you been sleeping yet?"

When he entered the room, Li Yange saw a Hong Kong film video tape playing on the TV. It was "Plan A" filmed by Brother Cheng. The picture happened to show Brother Cheng and Hong Dapang fighting with a group of people.

Cheng Shaojun smiled and said, "I'm not afraid that you will drink too much, I'll wait for you to come back."

"The wine level at night is not high, and the main person is not me, so I can't drink much."

Li Yange shook his head. Most of the wine in the evening was champagne, which was not high in the amount and could not be drunk. "How does this movie look like?"

"It's not bad. These actors are quite funny. They just don't understand Cantonese and can only read the subtitles."

I watched the video tape all night, either in English or Cantonese. Cheng Shaojun felt that his eyes were almost blind when he stared at the TV. He looked at the screen and then he wanted to see the subtitles.

"There should be a Mandarin version. Next time I go to the video store to look for it."

After saying that, Li Yange sat next to Cheng Shaojun, and the two of them were close together, and an ambiguous atmosphere gradually filled the room.

Feeling the hot body temperature emitted by Li Yange beside him because of drinking wine, Cheng Shaojun's face gradually turned red, and he put his hands in front of his knees, a little at a loss.

Li Yange is a little better. His face is not blushing or breathing, but his heart is beating wildly.

When we were in Beijing before, the two of us watched TV side by side, and it was always quite normal. But today I don’t know if the slightest smell of alcohol was sprayed out from Li Yange’s mouth, which exuded the pure viewing atmosphere.

The two sat beside the bed watching the movie playing, one blushing and the other nervous.

It took a long time.

"Shao Jun!"

A dry scream came from Li Yange's voice.

"Uh?" Cheng Shaojun was stunned, his body trembled slightly, and then he subconsciously looked up at Li Yange.

Seeing her cheeks flushed as if she was drunk after drinking, Li Yange quickly organized the language in her mind and said, "There is something I have always wanted to tell you, but there is no chance."

Perhaps because of some sensation, Cheng Shaojun's cheeks became even redder, he lowered his head slightly, and said stutteringly: "What...what?"

"You still remember that last summer, when we were visiting the lake in People's Park, I played a foreign song with the harmonica. You said it was very nice and asked me to call this song the name..."

Cheng Shaojun was stunned, and suddenly seemed to have returned to that day. The morning was sunny and the park was bustling with people. There was a small wooden boat, and the two of them were sitting inside, hovering in the middle of the lake, and the harmonica sound of that day was faintly heard in their ears.

"I said I heard it on the radio and didn't remember the name. Actually, I remember it very clearly because I learned this song specifically."

Hearing this, Cheng Shaojun's heart suddenly tightened. She seemed to have realized something, but her head was empty and completely empty.

"That song is a piano piece from the album "Adelina by the Water" released by French pianist Richard Clayderman in 1979. Adilina by the Water, the name comes from a short story in Greek mythology."

"It was rumored that a long time ago, there was a lonely Cyprus king named Pygmalion. He sculpted a beautiful girl and looked at her every day, and eventually inevitably fell in love with the statue of the girl.

In order to be truly with this girl statue, he prayed to the gods that as long as the girl's statue could come true, he would give the girl a dream wedding of the world tree. Pygmalion was sincere and persistent, and finally moved the love god Aphrodite and gave the girl the real life of the sculpture..."

Speaking of this, Li Yange looked deeply at Cheng Shaojun who was gradually immersed in the story, and said slowly: "And the name of the piano piece I played for you is "Wedding in a Dream"."

With a buzzing sound, Cheng Shaojun's ears seemed to have a huge roar and explosion sounded, which made her dizzy. It seemed that a recorder was installed in her mind, which was broadcasting the last five words "Wedding in a Dream" back and forth by Li Yange!

"Shao Jun..."

When Li Yange was preparing to say those words with great affection, Cheng Shaojun suddenly woke up, immediately covered Li Yange's mouth and said, "Okay, it's too late. I'm going to bed. You hurry up and go back to your room."

Immediately, she stood up and pushed Li Yange, forcing him to the outside of the door.

Paji-

The room door was closed with great force.

Li Yange, who was pushed outside the door, had just reacted at this moment. He looked around and looked at the long corridor, and was immediately amazed and laughed. What's going on?

After all, I'll be waiting for me to finish my words.

Li Yange stood at the door and pondered for a while. He thought that it might be because what he said was too sudden, which made Cheng Shaojun a little unacceptable for a while. However, as long as the meaning was expressed, she should be able to understand it. Give some time to figure it out.

Thinking of this, Li Yange turned around and opened the door next door and walked in.

At this moment, Cheng Shaojun, who was hiding behind the door, had a blushing face and his heart was still beating wildly.

When Li Yange told the story and the name of the piano piece, she understood what the other party meant, but as Li Yange thought, it was too sudden and there was no time for her to react.

It took a long time.

Cheng Shaojun stood up and lay down by the bed, covered himself with a thin quilt, his head full of the name of the piano piece and the short story told by Li Yange.
