Chapter 686: Always Very Quiet
In the private room, the lights flowed softly.
Su Ruochu placed her hands on her legs, her eyes flickering, her gaze fixed only on Chen Fan singing in front of her.
Li Na's eyes widened, her face full of delight.
And beside her, Guo Shuai's gaze kept secretly glancing at Li Na.
Chen Fan's song seemed to take them back to their high school days once again.
Su Ruochu's mind was filled with memories of her moments with Chen Fan.
The notes secretly passed during class, the mischievous jokes Chen Fan played on her, the homework she had copied for someone...
"Su Ruochu, I like you."
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
Li Na stared intently at Chen Fan on stage, who was in her youth?
As for Guo Shuai, his eyes were fixed on Li Na, as if looking into the distance, he seemed to see his 18-year-old self.
On stage, Chen Fan gently sang the second half of the song.
"Later I heard that Li Lei and Han Meimei
Neither could hold the other's hand
Lucy returned to China, Lily went to Shanghai
And had so many boyfriends around
Jim became a manager at a car company
Married a Chinese wife, living without worries
Lin Tao became a police officer
UncleWang retired last year
It's a bit regrettable, Li Lei and Han Meimei
Neither could hold the other's hand
What's the same is that we all have
A future we never imagined back then
Fortunately, Polly is still alive
Just like our little beauty from those years
It will never grow old
And won't fly away from our hearts..."
Chen Fan finished singing and slowly stood up, putting down his guitar.
The three people in the private room were stunned for a moment before applauding vigorously.
"That was so good."
"Chen Fan, you sang so well."
Li Na was a bit excited: "What's the name of this song? Why haven't I heard it before?"
Chen Fan smiled slightly: "The song is called 《Li Lei and Han Meimei》."
"Is it a new song? How come I've never heard it before?"
Chen Fan nodded: "I suppose it's a new song, I wrote it myself."
"Ah? You can write songs too? That's amazing."
Li Na's face was exaggerated, while Guo Shuai beside her said proudly.
"You don't know about this, do you? Brother Fan has released several popular songs. Have you heard of Commoner, the most famous one online? That's Brother Fan."
Li Na widened her eyes again.
"Commoner is you?"
"When I first heard 《Absolute Obsession》, I thought the voice sounded like you. I even asked Ruochu later, but she said it wasn't you."
Su Ruochu was a bit embarrassed, "I was kept in the dark at that time, I really didn't know."
Li Na excitedly rushed over.
"I can't believe you've been hiding this so well."
"I can't believe a big star has come out of our circle. I must take a photo with you."
"Oh, and you have to give me an autograph later. Many of my colleagues love your songs."
Chen Fan was both amused and helpless, allowing Li Na to affectionately hold his arm as Su Ruochu took a photo.
The four of them sang in the KTV until evening, then went to find a place to have dinner together.
Only then did they part somewhat reluctantly.
Guo Shuai volunteered to drive Li Na home, and Li Na didn't refuse.
Chen Fan drove Su Ruochu back.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Su Ruochu smiled and stared blankly ahead.
"What are you thinking about?" Chen Fan asked with a smile.
"I'm thinking about the song you sang in the KTV this afternoon. It was really nice."
Su Ruochu asked with a smile: "Is it a newly written song?"
"Mm. I guess so. At least it hasn't been released yet."
Su Ruochu said softly: "Actually, I think... the content of the lyrics is quite sad."
"All the friends who used to play together have grown up, but the people they liked ultimately didn't end up together."
"Do you think Han Meimei liked Li Lei?"
Seeing Su Ruochu's serious expression, Chen Fan smiled and analyzed:
"Based on the content in the English textbook, I think she did like him. At least, Li Lei had always had a secret crush on Han Meimei."
"Then why didn't they end up together?"
Chen Fan sighed.
"Maybe this is reality."
"Those who can end up together are after all a minority."
"I'm very grateful that we ended up together and have persisted until now."
Chen Fan teased: "Don't you think Guo Shuai and Li Na are actually very much like Li Lei and Han Meimei?"
Speaking of this, Su Ruochu couldn't help but ask: "Judging from Guo Shuai's expression today... does he still like Li Na?"
Chen Fan smiled: "He definitely has good feelings for her, but to say he likes her... I don't think it's that serious."
"For Guo Shuai, Li Na is a dazzling light from his youth."
"Desiring but not obtaining, over these years, it has become a bit of an obsession for him."
Su Ruochu smiled: "Do you boys all have special feelings for your first love?"
Chen Fan nodded: "I suppose so."
"Then what about you? What about your first love?"
Chen Fan turned his head: "My first love is you."
"Before, after, past life, this life, only this one person, never changed."
"You pass!"
...
In the end, Chen Fan didn't go to the class reunion.
Guo Shuai and Li Na went, and afterwards Guo Shuai called to complain that it was fortunate Chen Fan didn't go, as the whole gathering was just a show-off stage for everyone.
The guys were all boasting about which big company they work for now, how much money they make a month, who has found a beautiful girlfriend...
The women were showing off their designer brands, bags given by boyfriends, who married a rich man...
Especially the class monitor Huang Hu, this guy drove a BMW there and showed off hard in front of everyone.
Moreover, this guy even bragged at the dinner table that he's currently dating a girlfriend whose family is in an official position.
He also said he has now passed the city-level civil servant exam.
The classmates were also fawning over Huang Hu, which made Guo Shuai feel a bit sick.
"Brother Fan, if you had driven your Range Rover there, I wonder what expression that Huang Hu would have had."
"Oh right, since sister-in-law didn't go, that Huang Hu guy still had ulterior motives and wanted to ask for sister-in-law's phone number, but Li Na didn't give it to him."
"In the end, Huang Hu set his sights on Li Na, saying he could send her home after the gathering, or that they could find a place to sit and chat at night..."
"Damn... if Li Na hadn't stopped me, I would have punched him right there."
"We left early before finishing dinner with Li Na."
"I'd be a f***ing idiot if I ever go to this kind of gathering again."
Chen Fan chuckled and said: "When you encounter a pile of shit, you can't just go and step on it twice. Just avoid it in the future."
After the New Year, he visited relatives for a few days, then went to Su Ruochu's home for a visit, and then stayed at home to spend time with his parents for a few days.
On the 8th day of the lunar new year, Chen Fan spent a day alone with Su Ruochu.
On the 9th day, Chen Fan drove back to Yunhai early.
That night, Chen Fan met with Wen Wan, who had already returned to Yunhai.
Due to Wen Wan's special identity, they didn't go out, but had a simple dinner at Wen Wan's villa.
After dinner, Chen Fan took out a piece of paper and handed it to Wen Wan.
"What's this?" Wen Wan was a bit curious.
"A song I wrote for you. See if you like it first."
Wen Wan curiously opened the note.
Last time she heard Chen Fan sing it once on the phone, but when she actually saw the content of these lyrics.
Wen Wan was still moved, her eyes slightly reddened.
"Always very quiet..."
"So this song is called 《Always Very Quiet》."
Wen Wan looked up at Chen Fan, "I like this name."
"And I really like this song, I feel like this song is written about me."
Especially when she saw a few lines of lyrics.
"Empty street scenery
Wanting to find someone to place emotions
Making this decision
Loneliness is my neighbor
Our love
Is like the scenery you pass by
Always ongoing
But your footsteps will never stop for me..."
...
"It's clearly a movie for three people
But I can never have a name..."
Isn't this completely writing about her feelings for Chen Fan?
Just looking at the lyrics, Wen Wan was almost crying.
She looked up at Chen Fan.
"Don't change it."
"Just this one, I like this song!"
