Chapter 46 Couples in the Love of Each Other
Chapter 46 Couples in the Love of Each Other
They slowly walked onto the stage.
The lights were focused on them.
They each took their places and began their performance.
The clear and melodious sound of the zither slowly rose, followed by the elegant and graceful sound of the xiao (vertical bamboo flute), the zither and xiao blending together with a rhythmic cadence.
The audience fell silent.
Ning Yi parted her lips slightly to the accompaniment and began to sing slowly.
She held the microphone in her right hand, her voice soft and gentle, her singing flowing smoothly.
At first, she was a little nervous. Looking at so many people below the stage, she unconsciously clenched her skirt. But as the accompaniment started, her heart gradually calmed down. Slowly, she stopped looking at the audience and began to immerse herself in her own world.
Before they knew it, the song was over, and the audience erupted in applause.
Ning Yi's heart tightened again, and then she and the others bowed slightly to the audience and went off the stage together.
Ning Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief after stepping down from the stage.
"Xiaoyi, you did a great job! Anyone who didn't know better would have thought we actually invited a singer," Li Man said with a smile, linking her arm with hers.
"I was so nervous when I went on stage just now," Li Man sighed.
Ning Yi patted her hand and said, "I feel like my palms are sweating."
Li Man suddenly suggested, "Now that we've successfully completed this performance, how about we go grab a bite to eat together?"
Ning Yi nodded in agreement, and then the two of them turned to look at Chen Yu.
Chen thought for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "Where should we eat?"
Li Man quickly took out her phone and said with a smile, "Let me check."
Lin Zhiyu had just finished playing basketball and sat down to drink some water when he picked up his phone and saw that Lin Meng had sent him two pictures.
He clicked on it and found that it was Ning Yi.
A photo of Ning Yi singing on stage with a microphone.
It still looks just as good.
Lin Zhiyu couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips and clicked to save the image.
……
Li Man was in a good mood today, so she said she wanted to have a little wine.
Ning Yi wasn't a big drinker, so she only had a little beer on the side. Little did she know that Chen Yu was even less of a drinker.
Although Li Man insisted on adding some baijiu to his beer, he only drank a few glasses before his face turned bright red and he looked dazed.
Li Man's eyes widened in surprise: "No way, you're drunk after drinking so little?"
"Dude, is this serious?"
Chen waved his hand, saying he wanted to lie down for a while.
Ning Yi and Li Man exchanged a glance, almost laughing.
Chen Yu seemed to be asleep, and then the two of them ate and drank.
They had almost finished eating and, after checking the time, decided it was time to go back.
Li Man patted Chen Yu on the shoulder and said, "Hey, Chen Yu, wake up!"
"We should go back."
Waking up, Chen Yu shook his head, scratched his hair, and said blankly, "Oh, let's go."
Fortunately, Chen Yu wasn't completely drunk and was still relatively sober, at least able to walk.
But seeing how he walked like he was sleepwalking, Ning Yi and Li Man were a little worried about him going back by himself, so they accompanied him to the boys' dormitory.
"I...I've arrived, I'll go first," Chen Yu suddenly said, then quickly walked towards the dormitory door, then suddenly stopped, turned around, waved to them, and went inside.
"That's funny, Chen Yu has this side to him too," Li Man joked.
"Let's go, we should head back too."
Once back in her dorm, Ningyi quickly took a shower, washed up, and went to bed.
I don't know if it's because I drank alcohol, but my head is a little dizzy and I feel sleepy.
"I want to buy it! I want to buy it! It's so cool!"
Ning Yi's nap was interrupted by Li Man.
"Let me see, let me see," An Xiaonuo said curiously as she leaned closer to take a look.
Li Man was holding an iPad, on which her friend had taken pictures of the Ji Yan magazine she had bought and sent to her.
An Xiaonuo couldn't help but exclaim, "He's really handsome! No wonder he's both talented and good-looking!"
“I heard this is Ji Yan’s first magazine,” Li Man said from the side.
Upon hearing Ji Yan's name, Ning Yi immediately sat up and looked down from the bed.
"What? What?" Ning Yi asked hurriedly.
Li Man waved her iPad excitedly and said, "Quick, look at Ji Yan's new magazine!"
Ning Yi also got out of bed and moved closer.
"Oh, how come I didn't know about the new magazine?" Ning Yi said excitedly, holding her iPad.
“I haven’t heard about it. My friend bought it through other channels. It should be officially released in the next couple of days,” Li Man said from the side.
Jona, who had just finished showering, came out drying her hair and saw them gathered together looking at something again.
She could easily guess which celebrity or handsome guy he was looking at.
Sure enough, the next day the official release of the magazine featuring Ji Yan's photoshoot in Shiyi Magazine was announced, and it would go on sale at noon the following day.
Furthermore, there are only 100,000 copies in stock; if you don't buy one, you'll have to wait for the pre-sale.
Li Man said she would take care of it, as she had plenty of experience in snatching magazines. Li Man wasn't particularly into chasing celebrities, but she would buy magazines and photocards of good-looking stars.
Li Man also took out a large cardboard box to show Ning Yi. Inside were magazines and photocards of various celebrities, as well as many foreign celebrities.
She said that handsome guys like this are pleasing to the eye, and handsome guys are meant to be looked at.
But she won't spend her time chasing after people offline.
To make it convenient for everyone, Ning Anyuan's birthday party was held on the weekend.
He didn't invite a large number of people, just some close friends and acquaintances.
Ning Yi came back a night early because her university didn't have evening self-study sessions, so she came back early.
The banquet was in the evening, and they were still at the Ning residence at the moment.
"Happy birthday, brother," Ning Yi said with a smile, handing the bag to Ning Anyuan with both hands.
A hint of surprise flashed in Ning Anyuan's eyes, and he smiled gently, saying, "Thank you so much, Xiaoyi."
"I don't know what my brother likes or what he lacks, so I just bought it for him when I saw something suitable," Ning Yi said softly.
Ning Anyuan ruffled Ning Yi's hair: "I'll like whatever you give me."
That evening, the family went to the banquet hall.
There were only four tables set up. Ning Anyuan said that there was no need to make a big fuss about a birthday.
I heard that Ning Anyuan even brought out his collection of red wines, which he had kept for a long time. It's clear that Ning Anyuan is very happy today.
Ning Anyuan, Ning Yi, and Ji Yan were all sitting at the same table.
Qiao Jiawei walked over arm in arm with Cheng Qi. Just now, Qiao Jiawei was not paying attention to where she was going and almost bumped into a waiter, but Cheng Qi protected her.
"Happy birthday, An Yuan," Cheng Qi said.
Ning Anyuan raised an eyebrow and said jokingly, "Where's my gift? You just brought people along!"
Qiao Jiawei smiled and said, "Qi and I have prepared gifts; we'll have them brought to you in a bit."
Ning Anyuan glanced at Qiao Jiawei's arm linked with Cheng Qi's and joked, "Now you're openly showing off your love in front of everyone, huh?"
Qiao Jiawei smiled shyly.
Then Cheng Qi and Qiao Jiawei came over and sat down at their table.
They greeted each other.
Ning Yi couldn't help but glance at Ji Yan, but Ji Yan didn't show much expression on his face and was still chatting with them.
"Little Yi, how are you doing at Nanjing University?" Qiao Jiawei suddenly asked Ning Yi with concern.
Ning Yi replied, "I'm doing fine, and I'm adapting quite well."
Qiao Jiawei continued, "It's been so long since I've been back to Nanjing University."
"Hey, Aqi, how about we go to Nanjing University in a few days?" Qiao Jiawei suddenly turned to ask Cheng Qi, who was standing next to her.
Cheng Qi looked at Qiao Jiawei with doting eyes and said, "Okay, whatever you say."
"Then let's go find Xiaoyi for a meal while we're at it," Qiao Jiawei said happily to Ning Yi.
It has to be said that couples in the throes of new love are truly different.
I still remember Cheng Qi's attitude towards Qiao Jiawei at the beginning, but now it has completely changed 360 degrees.
