The chocolate was a bit big, each piece was the size of a small egg, and the weight in the palm was really not light. And the outer packaging was particularly exquisite, even if placed in later generations, it wouldn't be outdated.

Li Heng thanked Mai Sui, and also expressed his gratitude to Zhou Shihe with high emotional intelligence. After all, the source of the chocolate came from her, it would be fine if they didn't bump into each other, but since they did, they had to say something.

A gust of wind through the window blew, lifting the green silk on her two temples, instantly there was a kind of extreme messy beauty, regarding Li Heng's thanks, Zhou Shihe's pure black and white eyes brought a shallow smile, and she nodded dignifiedly.

Returned to the room.

The wine fighting was nearing the end, Yangcheng was drunk out of shape, lying on the table sleeping soundly.

Blockhead was slightly better, but his face was redder than a monkey's butt, speaking with a bitten tongue, stuttering.

Sun Man was about the same, but her consciousness still retained the last trace of clarity.

Li Heng stood at the door and observed the situation inside, then went back to the first floor, preparing to settle the bill, only then learned that Mai Sui had already paid when she went downstairs before.

This girl, really considerate! Caring for others' feelings wherever she goes, if anyone can marry her in the future, they will definitely be happy to death.

Uh, later he reacted, according to the historical trajectory, because it seemed that there was a major change in the family, she didn't get married in her whole life, really...

Sigh!

Really a pity!

Li Heng sighed secretly, muttered a sentence, returned to the second floor and asked them: "Withdraw first, or stay for a while?"

Zhang Haiyan asked: "Withdraw to where? Does Xiao Han have a place to rest?"

Li Heng reached out and took his own wife, "I rented a house, I'll send her over."

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiyong supported Yangcheng, and everyone left the Old Li Restaurant together.

Halfway, Zhang Haiyan, who was walking in front with Sun Man, suddenly turned her head and asked Li Heng:

"Hey, Li Heng, heard from Man that you played an original track with an ocarina at the welcome party, super good, overshadowed the big singer Li Lingyu, is it true?"

Things that were already done, Li Heng didn't lie: "Just playing around..."

Sun Man interrupted his words with a giggle: "Ouch! Li Heng, don't be modest, one sentence, Haiyan and I both want to hear you play the ocarina, will you play?"

Ye Ning raised her hand, "Really good to hear, I want to hear it too."

Then this girl pulled Zhou Shihe, "Shihe wants to too."

Zhou Shihe was speechless, but as a person who understands music, didn't resist. It was clear that Li Heng's "Original Scenery of Hometown" at the welcome party left a deep impression on her.

Seeing everyone looking at himself, Li Heng, who was carrying Xiao Han, pondered for a moment, and said: "Then you guys follow me, the ocarina is in the rented house."

Except for those two men, Ye Ning and Haiyan hadn't been to the rented house, according to the current trend, it was estimated that they would know about him living in Lushan Village sooner or later, so simply stopped covering up, and generously took the group to Lushan Village.

"Wow, all are detached small buildings, Li Heng's life is really beautiful, if I could live in, it would be great." Entering the alley, Ye Ning looked left and right, envying and hating all the way.

Li Heng pointed to the No. 27 small building next door, jokingly: "Professor Guo and his wife of this small building retired, currently went to the United States to reunite with their children, maybe you have a chance."

Hearing this, everyone looked at the No. 27 small building together. The courtyard had the fragrance of osmanthus floating out, a corner of the courtyard wall was full of Boston ivy, the scenery looked very good.

Zhou Shihe looked up extremely seriously, and asked quietly: "Li Heng, how long has this small building been vacant?"

Li Heng replied: "Don't quite know the specific time, didn't pay much attention at the time, but a month or two has passed, only saw Professor Guo and his wife a few times after school started, the courtyard door has been tightly closed since then."

"Hmm."

Zhou Shihe gave a light "hmm," when entering the No. 26 small building, she even specially observed the No. 27 small building next door from the second-floor balcony.

Carefully put Xiao Han flat on the master bedroom bed, Li Heng bent down to help her take off her shoes, covered her with a quilt, and later poured a cup of water and put it on the bedside table.

When he came out, a group of people had finished visiting the second floor and returned to the first floor, only Mai Sui was left in the attic alone, dazed at the swing.

Li Heng walked over and asked with concern: "What are you thinking about?"

The voice came suddenly from behind, the distracted Mai Sui was startled, turned her head and said: "I'm thinking, should the swing be dismantled?"

Li Heng frowned, looked at the swing for a good while and asked: "Why dismantle it? Our friendship ends here? Hmm?"

Mai Sui looked at him, her charming red lips squirmed a few times, finally didn't make any sound.

Li Heng stared at her eyes, sighed for a long time and said: "I don't have the qualification to ask you anything, do whatever you want."

After saying that, he turned and wanted to leave.

Looking at his back, Mai Sui suddenly spoke, "Can I ask you a question?"

Hearing this, Li Heng, who had walked two steps, stopped on the spot, without looking back: "You say."

Mai Sui glanced at the master bedroom direction, lowered her voice and asked: "Of the three of them, who do you love the most?"

Li Heng was surprised, turned around and looked at her.

This time, Mai Sui didn't give an inch, staring straight at him.

Deserving of being the reincarnation of Su Daji, the way she looked when she was serious was exceptionally charming, unique, making people serious, and making primitive desires instinctively want to try, the pressure she gave him was almost catching up to Song Yu.

Moving his gaze away from her without a trace, Li Heng said leisurely: "Of the three of them, for me, there is no special preference."

Mai Sui still stared at him without blinking, said for the first time: "You're lying."

Li Heng: "..."

He asked: "Then who do you hope I love the most?"

Mai Sui was stunned, and was speechless.

Standoff for half a day, Li Heng couldn't help asking: "Is the pressure Xiao Han brings you that big?"

Mai Sui shook her head, withdrew her gaze and looked elsewhere: "It's not her, it's that I haven't figured it out myself."

Her gaze slowly wandered over her eyes, nose and cherry mouth, sliding down to her collarbone, this inner-charming woman was beautiful in every way, enchanting in every way, having an extremely fatal attraction to men.

Feeling his gaze, Mai Sui reached out her right hand to grab the attic railing, raised her left hand, and gently fiddled with the purple wind chime hanging on the swing.

"Ding-dang ding-dang... ding-dang ding-dang..."

The wind chime sound wasn't loud, fine and broken, but it lingered and hesitated between the two silent people.

After a good while, Li Heng broke the balance and said earnestly: "Making a friend is not easy, a bosom friend is even harder, I never greed for more, having one or two bosom friends in life is enough.

You should consider it seriously, next time I don't want to hear a minus forty-degree voice from a 37-degree mouth."

After the words fell, he didn't linger, turned and left without looking back, his movements were dashing, clean and neat.

Following the disappearance of the figure in the corner of her eye, Mai Sui, who was calm and composed just now, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, opened her palm, and found it was already moist, full of fine sweat.

Li Heng went downstairs, Zhou Shihe on the balcony next door walked over through the living room.

Seeing her best friend, Mai Sui was first surprised, then relieved.

Mai Sui asked: "Heard it all just now?"

Zhou Shihe smiled weakly, acquiesced.

Then she added: "Just admiring the No. 27 small building next door, didn't hear what you said before, just noticed you were here when I returned."

Eyes cast on the swing again, Mai Sui asked: "Shihe, do you think I should dismantle it?"

Zhou Shihe examined the swing for a while along her line of sight, and asked back: "Do you really want to dismantle it?"

Mai Sui was silent.

One minute later, Mai Sui said depressedly: "The jokes of my first half of life were all finished by you in these two days."

Zhou Shihe smiled knowingly, said warmly: "Too early to say, I feel it just started, still have four years of university to watch."

Mai Sui acted as if she didn't hear this, pulled her best friend to walk into the house, when passing the study door, she paused and said:

"Wait a moment, he forgot to take the ocarina."

Zhou Shihe watched her walk into the study, watched her squat down to take the ocarina, and watched her tidy up the books, fountain pen and ink bottle on the desk, and then watched her come out.

Next to the study was the master bedroom, the two women's steps became lighter when passing the room door, and then quickly went downstairs.

On the first floor, Li Heng had been busy boiling water and making tea for everyone, only after Mai Sui handed him the ocarina did he suddenly realize, just now upstairs he only cared about talking to the girl in front of him, actually forgot the ocarina.

Put the last two cups of tea in front of Mai Sui and Zhou Shihe, he sat opposite everyone with the ocarina, laughed:

"Fudan University has always been full of hidden talents, there are music experts among you, I play the ocarina just to amuse everyone, don't laugh at me later."

Zhou Shihe realized the boy opposite was talking about herself, when seeing his gaze look over, her eyelids drooped a bit, lowered her head and smiled without responding.

"Original Scenery of Hometown" was already familiar, playing it was more controllable than last time, Li Heng looked at his nose, nose at his heart to brew emotions, and then played it with his mouth.

Just one sound, the living room quieted down.

Zhang Zhiyong and Zhang Haiyan, who hadn't heard it, felt their scalp tingle, goosebumps all over their bodies, killed in seconds! Stunned!

And Mai Sui, Sun Man and Ye Ning, who had heard it, still listened with bated breath, afraid of missing every rhythm and every melody.

The notes drifted, Zhou Shihe, who was attracted, raised her head again, her simple eyes fell on his clean face, motionless, her soul seemed to have followed out, listening quietly to the absolute sound of the century.

The room was silent, don't know when an uninvited guest appeared outside the house, Yu Shuheng with a thick bookish atmosphere stepped over the sheet music and came, holding a classic in her hand, like a goddess of wisdom.

However, Yu Laoshi didn't enter the door, just stood in the alley and listened.

4 minutes and 40 seconds, it was long, but also short.

After the song finished, Yu Shuheng, who was the first to recover, crossed the threshold, walked in and said:

"Li Heng, I got news, this 'Original Scenery of Hometown' of yours will most likely be favored by the Spring Festival Gala director, do you want to participate?"

Yu Laoshi, who said this, had burning eyes, and a trace of expectation rarely appeared in the pitch-black pupils that had been icy cold in the past.

Capturing this emotion, Li Heng was a bit inexplicable, and didn't know what the teacher was expecting?

But this news was shocking enough!

Only saw Zhang Zhiyong stand up with a "pia," dancing and saying: "Damn! Going, going to the Spring Festival Gala! Grandpa Heng! You're going to be on TV, made it! Made it big!"

However, when Blockhead bumped into Yu Laoshi's gaze, his brain buzzed, immediately lost color, and hurriedly sat down again.

This guy only saw clearly at this time, this, isn't this the woman in the English teacher's photo?

Damn! I want to fall in love! Damn! I'm heartbroken again!

In just a few seconds, Zhang Zhiyong seemed to have experienced a century, and for a time felt lost.

A while ago he wrote to his hometown, asking about Sister Chunhua, his old man teased him: Liu Chunhua is engaged, plans to get married at the end of the year. Son, come back to grab the marriage, Dad will kill two pigs to support you!

In this big Shanghai, Blockhead had seen countless beauties, and even more seen the ceiling of women like Xiao Han and Zhou Shihe, but he still had no waves, his small heart could only hold Sister Chunhua.

No one noticed Zhang Zhiyong's gaffe, everyone was immersed in the daze of "going to the Spring Festival Gala."

Everyone present, counting one by one, all looked at Li Heng foolishly, feeling it was so incredible, only so old! Only 18 years old! Really talented!

Li Heng was stunned, slowed down and stood up, asked: "Teacher, is it true?"

Yu Shuheng smiled and nodded, "There should be news coming to the school tomorrow or the day after, someone will come to find you then."

Then she exhorted: "You can consider this matter carefully, don't rush to refuse."
