Welcome back to another chapter! I"m trying my new schedule this week! Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday!
He Qianyu smiled generously, taking over the microphone. "Good, ah!" She then looked towards Guo Chuhan, "Brother Guo, I don"t sing as well as Xihe. If I go out of tune you must forgive me."
"Why? I don"t sing very well either." Guo Chuhan smile faintly. He Qianyu already said it like this, it"d be difficult for him to refuse again.
Guo Chuhan"s singing voice was better than Zhou Huajian"s in the original song, and although He Qianyu"s voice didn"t have the clarity of Qiyu"s, it was still pa.s.sable. Hearing the song"s chorus, it wasn"t too bad.
Shui Nen sat beside Lin Xihe and whispered in her ear: "Still, I think your and Guo Chuhan"s version is the best, even comparable to the original!"
Lin Xihe didn"t reply but just pinched her leg. She understood the meaning behind Shui Nen"s tone, however, she didn"t respond.
Shui Nen gave a light snort. "Really! Either way, you two would make a great pair."
Lin Xihe bent her head to eat the fruit salad below, still keeping silent. Only the person themselves can be clear about their emotions, too much persuading won"t do any good.
Guo Chuhan and He Qianyu finished the song and the three watching gave fervent applause.
Shen Jiu Jiu even shouted happily: "It sounded great! Really pleasant to listen to! You both sang with such deep emotions, I nearly teared up."
"Of course, you didn"t-" Before Shui Nen finished her sentence, she was interrupted by Lin Xihe pinching her thigh.
Lin Xihe handed the microphone over to Shen Jiu Jiu. "Jiu Jiu, you should also sing some."
"Good! I"m going to sing 《Don"t Look, I"m Just A Sheep》, hehe.." Shen Jiu Jiu ran over to sing. (1)
Everyone listened, laughing.
Lin Xihe shook her head helplessly. Shen Jiu Jiu"s parents are very protective, and her temperament is very pure and simple-minded, so sometimes she seems like a child who hasn"t grown up yet. But, still, she"s a very well behaved child.
Soon, two wolves and two fat little sheep appeared in the frame. Shen Jiu Jiu then began to sing with a child-like voice.
Driven by Shen Jiu, the atmosphere immediately became relaxed and light-hearted.
Pei Yiheng returned home and Pei Yi was still in the living room. It seems that he was waiting for him. "Dad, it"s late. Why haven"t you laid down yet?"
"Yiheng, come here." Pei Yi beckoned him over with a wave.
Pei Yiheng walked over and sat down on the opposite sofa. "Dad, what do you need to speak to me about?"
Pei Yi sighed softly: "You"re 32 years old this year, it"s time for you to start thinking about getting married and settled down. Well, do you have a suitable person in mind?"
"No." Pei Yiheng replied curtly. "Dad, I"m not a woman, 32 years old is still young. You shouldn"t worry about me finding a wife right now, okay?"
"At your age, children all feel as if it"s none of their business, so how could I not worry?" This child had suffered a lot before, and Pei Yi always felt sorry for him. Plus, he has a good sense of propriety, so he cannot help but spoil him a little.
"Dad, if you like soy sauce so much, I"ll hire a team of men to cook soy sauce for you every day. That way, you don"t have to go buy any." (2)
"Don"t give me that cheeky grin!" Pei Yi glared, continuing, "If you don"t have someone you like, what do you think of Lin Xihe?"
Pei Yiheng"s sword-like eyebrows raised lightly: "The number of beauty in Yangcheng is, of course, a beauty that could bring the downfall of a country."
Footnotes:
1: This Song
2: 打酱油 translates to buying soy sauce, but seems to be a h.o.m.onym for ‘none of my business" or ‘none of your business". So, essentially, Pei Yiheng is making fun of his pops.
