Chapter 20 Volume 3: The Gorgeous Magic of the Ugly Duckling Chapter 18

At 7 o'clock in the morning, there are few pedestrians in the cherry blossom campus. The wet soil seems to still have the afterglow of the rose-colored morning light. The faint mist is like a veil covering the quiet and clear ice lake. Echoes on the lake.The dew shone through the mist on the transparent glass windows on the second floor, shimmering and dancing. By the window, the smooth piano, the gentle young man in a snow-white uniform, the gently undulating black and white keys, and the light music form a soft and clean picture, making people feel as if there is beauty in the air.The graceful Qiu Lijin played the piano keys under her fingers quietly, her movements were elegant and gorgeous, her brows radiated a gentle light, and her thick, fan-like eyelashes were slightly raised.As if he suddenly thought of someone or something interesting, his pink lips curled into a tender smile.

His slender and clean fingers gradually stopped, and he looked up out of the window. His gentle and handsome face was like a white flower blooming in spring, rippling with the temperature of happiness. Not long after, the girl's brisk footsteps sounded in the corridor.Lomyan, with a bright smile, walked towards the music classroom with a violin, humming an unmusic tune from time to time.As soon as she walked to the door, she unexpectedly saw Qiu Weijin sitting by the piano.And just then he turned to look at her.The eyes of the two met instantly. A gleam of light flashed in Qiu Weijin's eyes as deep as sea water, and the smile on the corner of his lips rose slightly: "Good morning, Junior Mi Yang." He greeted her cordially and proactively.

"Well, good morning, senior!" Lomyan replied with a smile, looking refreshed.Because she got up early today, she planned to go to the music classroom to practice new pieces early, but she didn't expect to meet her seniors.However, an outstanding person like him must have the habit of getting up early. Practicing the piano early in the morning can indeed be regarded as a kind of spiritual enjoyment.Putting the violin in his hand on the table, Lomiyan walked up to Qiu Weijin.Sit side by side with him at the piano. Stretching out her hand to lightly touch the smooth keyboard, she seemed to have suddenly found a long-lost sense of familiarity. Her slightly callused fingertips danced naturally and smoothly on the keys, and the music was delicate and full of fragrant vitality.

Qiu Weijin was slightly surprised and asked softly: "Can you play the piano?" She is like a mythical Pandora's box, constantly bringing miracles and at the same time moving people.Although the first impression of her is not amazing, or even considered ordinary, but the more contact and digging, you can find the radiant beauty hidden deep in her heart, and she is deeply attracted to her unconsciously. "Well, but I can play very few pieces." Because of Qinuo, she had taught herself the piano for a period of time under the guidance of Teacher Ling, but she was not proficient.When I saw the piano today, I felt very nostalgic for some reason, so I chose a piece of my favorite piano piece to play.Fortunately for her, after nearly a year, she is still relatively proficient in fingering.

Lomyan looked sideways at Qiu Weijin beside him, only to realize that he was very close to him, so close that he could almost count every one of his eyelashes.His eyes are so clear, like the purest crystal jade, without any dust.Although it's just a simple white shirt, it can't conceal his innate noble temperament, and his musical talent makes his temperament more elegant than anyone else.Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Yanxi can't help but admire him. As if feeling her gaze, Qiu Weijin smiled slightly and asked, "What's wrong? Do I look weird?" It was clearly a joking question, but it was still as gentle as clear spring water soaking in people's hearts.

"No, but...Senior, do you have someone you like?" Lomiyan asked cautiously, with a very low voice.In fact, she very much hoped that his answer would be no, because that would at least show that Yanxi was still possible.But realizing that her question was too abrupt, she hurriedly explained with a sneer: "I was just thinking that the girl who is liked by someone as good as a senior should be as perfect as an angel. There is no other meaning, hehe..." She actually What an idiot to ask this question!Luo Miyang secretly regretted, hoping that the senior would not think that she was too gossip because of this, and it would be better if he hated her.

Her question was like a small rock stirring up layers of ripples on Qiu Li's heart lake, his bright eyes seemed a bit blurred under the long eyelashes.Since he was a child, he has always been only his family in his life. Even though he has received countless confessions from girls from different countries in foreign countries for several years, he just smiles lightly. He has never been tempted by anyone, and he has never thought about what is real. like. Therefore, although he knew that he did not know when he began to have a different feeling for her than he did for other girls, but he never thought that it was just a simple good feeling, or... a gradually sprouting heartbeat.A strange warm current rose from the bottom of my heart and permeated Qiu Weijin's whole body.He didn't answer her question, but just caressed the soft and shiny hair on top of her head naturally and affectionately, with a smile as gentle as jade on his transparent snow face.

Seeing that he wasn't angry with her, Romyan was relieved, and then smiled foolishly.The air is filled with the fresh aroma of mint because of the innocent smiles of the two, and the atmosphere is warm.The blue sky stretches slowly, revealing streaks of light golden sunlight, and the cherry blossom campus is illuminated by the light, showing a vigorous vigor in the early morning. Qiu Lijin raised her head and looked out the window, her amber pupils flashed a complex expression in the sunlight, and the smile on her lips gradually dimmed. In the next rehearsal, Qiu Weijin announced a news that excited all the members.The city's highest-level youth classical music concert will be held in a month, and the Sakura Music Club is the only group of performers invited in the name of the club.This is not only an honor, but also great support and encouragement.

But opportunities also mean challenges. For a newly established music club, the preparation time of more than one month seems a bit hasty.However, this did not put too much pressure on the members with extremely high musical attainments, because they believed in their own music level, believed in the tacit understanding of the club, and believed in the excellent president. After making a series of detailed arrangements, Xiang Yinxun sent the prepared time plan to each member. When she walked in front of Lomiyan, her fingers on the plan suddenly twitched, and her smile also turned. become slightly stiff.But Lomiyan, who was only thinking about how to prepare for the performance, didn't notice this abnormality. She took the schedule in Xiang Yinxun's hand with both polite hands, and looked through it carefully.Other members also began to rehearse according to their original plans.

In the middle of the rehearsal, Lomyan unfortunately received a call from the demon Anshi Yunkui. Feeling that the phone was vibrating non-stop, Lomyan took it out of the bag, and the four words that appeared most frequently in the past half month were constantly flashing on the grass-green screen - An Shi Yunkui.After hesitating for a moment, she lowered her head and pressed the call button.An Shi Yunkui's thunderous voice immediately rang in her ears: "Idiot! You are so slow to answer the phone every time, do you want me to wait on purpose! You have to arrive at the shooting location within half an hour, otherwise you will die It's settled!" He still had a domineering command tone, as if she was his exclusive property, and all his requests were taken for granted.

"I'm sorry, I can't come here because the music club is going to rehearse today." Lomiyan explained in a low voice, hoping to get his understanding.She had already missed the first rehearsal because of him, and she couldn't have a second rehearsal, not to mention she had to hurry up and practice for the performance now. "Boom—" Something was kicked down on the avatar on the phone, and An Shi Yunkui's voice was even more furious than before: "Don't make me repeat it a second time, I tell you to come here now, immediately, immediately! "It can be heard from the phone that he is on the verge of breaking out. Hearing the call behind him, the interrupted members frowned and looked at this side. Lomiyan smiled apologetically, and hastily replied, "I'm sorry, I really can't come." After that, he hung up the phone immediately , but began to uneasyly imagine how serious the consequences of her behavior at this moment would be. Pale golden sunlight illuminates the entire music classroom through the snow-white curtains, and the cool autumn wind flutters slightly with the sound of music, adding a sense of harmony, tranquility and dreaminess to the morning. Although Lomyan has participated in many music performances since learning the violin, it is the first time that this kind of influential youth recital has been held in the country. Therefore, except for eating and sleeping, she devotes almost all her time to practicing There is no slacking off when it comes to new tracks in every genre.At the same time, in order to establish the best tacit understanding among the members in the shortest time, according to Qiu Weijin's arrangement, intensive intensive training must be carried out during this period, and the number of rehearsals has also been increased from two times a week to four times. Since the establishment of the school, Sakura has always been proud of the students' achievements in music, and the members who stand out from the strict selection are even the best in music.After a period of intensive training, they developed a tacit understanding of each other's music at an amazing speed, and even surpassed the school's professional performance team in some aspects. Based on this achievement, Qiu Weijin decided to slow down the process, allowing members to have more space and time to improve themselves. When Lomian appeared in front of An Shi Yunkui again, it was already more than a week later.On the way to the shooting location, Lomyan imagined countless horrible ways for him to punish himself, and prepared a series of apologies and explanations, but when she reached out and pushed open the half-closed door of the dressing room, The scene in front of her shocked her so much that she couldn't make any sound for a long time. In the exquisite and gorgeous dressing room, the pink curtains fluttered up and down with the wind, and the ambiguity that made people blush and heartbeat flowed in the air.The shadow of the sun, with a charming posture, reflected on the tall boy.He has deep and charming eyes, sexy thin lips, and an indescribable coldness exuding from his whole body. At this time, he was leaning his upper body slightly in a perfect arc, his slender arms hooked the girl's slender waist, his flowery thin lips almost fit her slightly raised red lips, his graceful side profile The face blends into the sunlight, handsome and evil, stirring people's hearts. Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, An Shi Yunkui turned his head coldly, his originally gloomy eyes without any emotion immediately dissipated the anger after seeing the person coming, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.Jily, who was eagerly waiting for the kiss to fall, noticed this strangeness, opened her eyes in bewilderment, and then glared angrily at the girl who appeared at the door rashly.Kui Mingming almost kissed her, but was interrupted by her at this critical moment.Damn it! Today seemed to be the second time she saw him kissing a girl, but this time she seemed to appear at an inappropriate time.Lomyan blushed and apologized in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I'm leaving now, I'm sorry..." She was anxious to close the door and go out, but was stopped by a hostile roar. "Don't leave!" An Shi Yunkui's wild and domineering roar echoed throughout the dressing room, even the staff outside were taken aback.Lomyan immediately bowed his head and stood there in fear, not daring to move half a step, let alone looking up at his dark handsome face. "You go out first." An Shi Yunkui said coldly to Jily who was beside her, but she didn't look at her, and her tone was so strange that it was not him who was intimate with her just now. Jily pursed her lips, but didn't dare to say anything more when he was in a rage, and closed the door after glaring at Lomyan with warning and hostile eyes for a long time and went out.In the Ruo dressing room, there were only two people standing in a stalemate, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder. After disappearing for so long, is she finally willing to come?An Shi Yunkui glared at her, and the anger that had been suppressed for ten days finally broke out at this moment.Damn it!It was the first time someone dared to disobey his orders for other things, the first time someone dared to hang up his phone, the first time someone dared to leave him for so long without his permission, the first time someone dared to let him get used to her Existence, used to her smile, used to disappear without a trace after she was by her side, and ignored him.Since she dared to ignore him so much and didn't care about her feelings at all, why didn't she simply disappear completely and get out of his world. However, what made him even more unbearable was that the moment she appeared, his restless and empty heart was strangely filled with a sense of fullness, and he even had a feeling of regaining happiness.When did it start, seeing her seemed to become a habit, as if all the laughter and joy had become as natural as air.After she left, he suddenly discovered that all his happiness comes from her, without her, life is empty and bleak. This was a feeling that An Shi Yunkui had never felt before. He didn't know if it was just an innate possessive desire or something else, he only knew that he wanted to keep her by his side.Since she was the one who provoked him, she shouldn't think that she could throw him away like a toy. Lomiyan didn't know what An Shi Yunkui was thinking at the moment. Seeing that he was silent for a long time, she plucked up the courage to walk up to him, and explained with a smile: "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry to find you just now, so I didn't Knock on the door, but I will keep it a secret." She promised with a serious face. "Also, because the music club is going to perform recently, I really can't spare so much time, so I can't come here. Although I have obtained Mr. An's consent, I still have to apologize to you for taking so many days off. I hope you can forgive me. .” She showed her utmost sincerity. Although most of the anger in his heart dissipated immediately after hearing her explanation, An Shi Yunkui, who has a devilish personality, obviously wouldn't just forgive her like this. He snorted dissatisfiedly: "The matter of the music club is important. Is it not important?" It said it was for the music club, but in fact it might be for Qiu Weijin, An Shi Yunkui thought sarcastically, the expression on his face was extremely awkward, like a jealous child. "You know that's not what I mean." Lomiyan was confused by him and didn't know how to explain: "No matter what, I promise to answer the phone as quickly as possible in the future, arrive at the designated place on time, and be on call , Is this okay? If it still doesn't work, then... I'll let you knock three times, okay?" Lomiyan stretched his head over, and pulled his arm recklessly. "Go away, big idiot, who wants to hit you!" An Shi Yunkui desperately got rid of the entanglement of her "devil's claws", but she made her angry and funny in her heart, and the original anger escaped from the corners of her lips Instead of a smile, the earring on the right ear flashed a bright blue light. Seeing that he finally laughed, Lomiyan couldn't help but laugh out loud.Although he is cool and masculine when he is angry, relatively speaking, she still prefers to see his smile.When he smiles, there will be shallow dimples on his cheeks, and his eyes are always brighter than usual, like many bright stars gathered together, people are unconsciously attracted by the brilliance in them.Perhaps because of this, she couldn't help but want to make him happy, and wanted to see his innocent smile from the heart. After a while, An Shi Yunkui spoke again: "You should know about the audition for the heroine of the Delar commercial next month. What are your plans?" "Plans?" : "Didn't Yu Ao say that it is enough to show your most natural side?" According to her understanding of "Qingfeng", there should be no need for too much embellishment. "You idiot!" A chestnut hit her head, and An Shi Yunkui rolled her eyes unbearably: "Do you think that shooting an advertisement is as easy as taking a promotional photo? This advertisement is very important to Delar, so At that time, not only Yu Ao will participate, but also many senior leaders of Delar will also participate. They will definitely leave on the spot when they see your vulgar and rustic appearance, and Delar also contacted actresses from other countries Audition. Therefore, for you, once you fail, there will never be a second chance. Do you want to prepare in advance and think about it yourself." He didn't want to talk too much nonsense with an idiot. Hearing what he said, it seemed that it was really necessary, but: "Then how should I prepare?" Lomiyan asked him for advice with a sincere face. "When I work in the future, there will be a professional beautician who will give you lectures. She will improve your temperament from the inside out, so if you don't want to be directly "out" after half a month, you must study hard." Ann Shi Yunkui said tuggingly. He said, hired a beautician to teach her?Is he joking?Romyan opened his eyes wide in surprise, and the dressing room became quiet again. But it turns out that An Shi Yunkui was not joking. When he participated in the filming the next day, he was accompanied by a temperamental beauty in his thirties, and she was the well-known senior beautician Agnes. Born in England Agnes is the dream and role model of many women, because she not only has the wealth, status, beauty, wisdom and ability that every woman desires, but also has a pair of magical hands and a mind with profound insights into beauty.The women transformed by her will undoubtedly not undergo miraculous transformation, so she was also given another title "miraclemaker". When she first met Lomyan, Agnes showed great interest in her, because Lomyan's appearance is too ordinary, and she always likes challenging things the most, and she believes that Lomyan is absolutely A piece of uncut jade, as long as it is carefully crafted, will surely shine with dazzling light. Lomyan was full of envy and admiration for Agnes.She has always hoped that one day she can become a beautiful and wise woman like Agnes, and she is indeed constantly working towards this direction.It's just that she didn't expect that she could get help from Agnes.And all of this must be thanks to one person, An Shi Yunkui.Meeting him was not only a wonderful encounter in her life, but also great luck. At that moment, Lomyan's gorgeous transformation like a butterfly bloom officially began.From that day on, whenever An Shi Yunkui was filming, she would seriously study various types of professional courses in the lounge. In order to shape her body, she must learn leg presses, stage walks, dancing and even yoga. The types of dances range from classical, cha-cha, Latin to waltz; in order to improve her appearance, she must learn skin care, makeup, clothing matching, and color matching. Light makeup, make-up, banquet makeup and stage makeup are all course content; in order to enrich the connotation and temperament, she must learn wine tasting, tea, study of Eastern and Western music, anthology, court etiquette, and the scope of study includes famous Chinese ancient to Western modern work. Although studying very hard every day, Lomiyan often had to stay up until two or three o'clock in the morning, and sometimes even felt physically and mentally exhausted, but her hard work, seriousness and enthusiasm remained the same.She believes that as long as there is one percent hope, one should put in one hundred percent effort. No matter how hard the process of the ugly duckling transforming into a white swan is, it cannot compare with the firm belief in the heart and the eternal light at the moment of transformation. Compared with Lomiyan's hard work, An Shi Yunkui seemed much more relaxed.Whenever it's time for shooting, he always likes to pretend to be casually wandering around the door of the lounge, as if he wants to secretly confirm whether Lomyan is really serious about studying.Occasionally, when she happened to be resting, he would use his devilish habits to try his best to tease her, and he was not satisfied until she was provoked and annoyed. Sometimes, he even hurt Lomiyan's self-confidence in a small way. For example, when she appeared in front of him for the first time wearing an evening dress and party makeup, An Shi Yunkui first expressed affectionately. Said to her, "You look like Snow White", and then jokingly added three words "stepmother", and then burst into laughter without mercy, so angry that Lomiyan almost took off his high heels and smashed her he. These light-hearted and interesting episodes brought a lot of fun to Lomiyan after her hard work, and the days slipped unknowingly amidst the pain and joy of hard work and the noisy laughter with An Shi Yunkui Pass. At four o'clock in the afternoon, the commercial shooting of the new STMMP4 has just ended, and the staff are busy packing up the equipment.In the dressing room, Agnes used a powder brush to apply a light layer of blush on Lomyan, looked at the effect in the mirror, and smiled with satisfaction.Sure enough, as she had imagined, she was indeed a piece of uncut jade with deep radiance, like lavender, which was born with a charming fragrance, and could emit a bright and fragrant fragrance after refining.After being sculpted, she still retains the fresh and bright temperament like sunny green leaves in her nature, but she has become more beautiful and confident than before, full of unique charm. In the mirror, although Lomiyan's face was still clear and indifferent, it was more charming than before.Although the facial features are not prominent, they are better than natural symmetry.The light make-up perfectly showed her hidden beauty. Her fair skin was glowing with a natural pink color, her clear eyes were flickering, with a kind of soaring look, between her lips that spread slightly like petals There are two small canine teeth on the left and right, which are white and lovely.The ingenious collocation of a snow-white shirt and a light green sweater makes her more refreshing, clear and full of vitality. Looking at Agnes beside her who was packing the makeup box, Lomiyan's heart moved, and he couldn't help saying gratefully: "Thank you." Without her help, she would not have undergone such a big change in half a month, and After getting along these days, she also has a deep feeling for her. Agnes didn't say anything, just smiled at her quietly, and the friendship between the two grew little by little in the silent silence. At this time, An Shi Yunkui pushed the door and entered. He nodded slightly to Agnes, and then yelled at Lomyan: "Hey, let's go, you idiot! This young master sees that you have been serious recently." I will take you to dinner." His tone of voice seemed to reveal an element of pride and mockery from the master to his poor little servant. When Lomyan turned his head to look at him in confusion, An Shi Yunkui's throat tightened uncontrollably, and the words that hadn't been spoken before stopped in his mouth instantly. During this period of time, she became better day by day, and the number of times he looked at her absent-minded was also increasing. Every day, he couldn't help wanting to find her, bully her, and even when he couldn't see her Habitually think of her, and then smiled silly.In short, everything started to go wrong since she disappeared for a week, even he himself didn't know why he cared so much about her, this strange feeling was so strong that he was afraid, afraid that it was not just a simple possessive desire, but... … Damn it!It must be just possessive desire, he will never like anyone, absolutely not!An Shi Yunkui shook his head, trying to calm himself down, he strode towards Lomiyang, and pulled her out domineeringly before she was ready, ignoring her struggle and Agnes' gaze. Seeing the backs of them leaving, Agnes couldn't help smiling. It seemed that this playboy who changed girlfriends faster than changing clothes and never dated for more than a month really fell in love this time.It's just...the other party doesn't seem to understand his mind, so he should be very troubled by it.Thinking of the many interesting things that will happen between them in the future, Agnes really began to look forward to it. In the afternoon, the warm sunshine and light clouds cover the Peter Square in the city center. There are huge French plane trees planted around the square. A group of children are stretching their arms around the thick trunk or playing around the plane tree, and the laughter is amazed from time to time. A cuckoo foraging on the ground.Pedestrians in casual clothes walk leisurely, chat or sit on benches to rest quietly in various parts of the square.All the tranquility and beauty in the world seem to be condensed here. Under the umbrella-shaped sycamore tree full of yellow leaves, a girl with a refreshing ponytail sat on a wooden bench and ate a burger in her hand, with a happy smile on her face.Sitting at the other end of the bench was a slender, thin, handsome young man. He seemed unable to let others know that he had any relationship with the girl, so he purposely sat far away from her, with a plastic bag in between.The girl who was completely immersed in the delicious burger didn't know about it, and continued to enjoy it with big mouthfuls. The way she eats is really ugly. Does she not care about the feelings of the people around her?An Shi Yunkui frowned in disgust as she looked at Lomiyang's swollen cheeks and the crumbs of bread on the corners of her lips, feeling chills all over her body.Originally, he had booked the highest-end western restaurant in the city, but she thought it was too extravagant and desperately brought him here. She also said that the scenery was good and the air was fresh, which would help increase her appetite.It really hurt his image that the most honorable young master of the Anshi family had to sit here like a beggar facing these junk food. What made him even more ashamed was her almost gobbled up food and her satisfied smile.It's just eating a cheap hamburger. Is it necessary to be so moved? Picking up the Coke and taking a sip, Lomiyan let out another sigh of satisfaction. She looked at An Shi Yunkui, who had a dark handsome face beside her, and asked puzzledly, "Why don't you eat it? It's very good." Eat." Sitting in such a quiet and comfortable square, eating delicious hamburgers and cola, while enjoying the cool pleasure of the autumn wind blowing on the face, and the light beauty of the clouds and clouds, it is really a very pleasant thing, as if the whole person Surrounded by full of happiness, forget any troubles. But not everyone is in such a good mood as Lomiyan. Facing her concern, An Shi Yunkui replied ungratefully: "I'm not hungry!" Then he turned his face away coolly and ignored her .He doesn't want to eat this kind of junk food, who knows if he will become an idiot like her after eating it, he thought angrily. "Oh..." Then she'd better take it back for supper later, it's too wasteful to throw it away.Lomiyan lowered her head and took a sip of Coke, but found that the carton was empty. She looked up at the sky sullenly, and soon she seemed to think of something suddenly, and then looked at An Shi Yunkui with a smile on her face, her eyes were bright Jingliang: "Do you know what I would wish for a kite with a broken string?" After a long pause, she slowly said, "I hope you can buy me another Coke." Before her eyes, there was a sly smile in her eyes. An Shi Yunkui rolled his eyes unbearably, and asked coldly, "Are you a Big Mac?" Then he got up and left.Lomyan's smile instantly froze on his lips, and he lowered his head in disappointment. She just wanted to drink more Coke. Does he have to be so stingy?He also called her Big Mac, which was really poisonous, and she drew circles on the ground with her feet dissatisfied. After walking a few steps, An Shi Yunkui suddenly stopped hesitantly and stood there, the corners of his lips parted and closed slightly, as if he was hesitating about something.Luo Miyang raised his head blankly and looked up at his tall and handsome back in the autumn wind and yellow leaves, his eyes were slightly confused. In the pond made of colored stones, groups of golden carp swim actively in the water, their whole body shining brightly, and the bubbles floating on the water surface reflect the colorful light of the sun. An Shi Yunkui turned to look at her, with a handsome and innocent smile on the corner of his lips: "The audition the day after tomorrow, come on!" At this moment, the smile from his heart was sincere and bright, shining with crystal clear and pure light, which made Luo Miyang's heart ache. It also warmed up, she nodded with a bright smile, and silently promised him that she would do her best. The autumn wind intertwined with the natural fragrance shuttled back and forth between the two, bringing the softness and touch to the deepest part of the heart. Time seemed to stop at this second. The vast blue sky, the quiet and peaceful square, the tall phoenix trees in the autumn wind, The old benches, boys and girls staring at each other's eyes freeze into a precious memory, moving gently rippling.
