After the song "Jinghong" was played, the onlookers applauded one after another, and some people asked Cheng Yanqiu to play another song.

Cheng Yanqiu clasped his hands to thank the audience, and then did not stay any longer. He came over and took Yu Dong to continue shopping.

The two walked for a while, and Yu Dong turned around and looked back.

Not far behind them, stood a girl, who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, with long blond hair.

The girl has been following them for a long time since just now.

When the blond girl saw Yu Dong and others turning to look at her, she took a few steps forward and arrived in front of them.

"You guys, don't remember me?"

The couple looked at each other, both confused. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't remember where they had seen this girl.

"Little girl, have you recognized the wrong person?" Cheng Yanqiu said.

The girl shook her head, "I won't mistake you. In the spring two years ago, you were here and played "The Bell" in front of the piano. I still remember your name. Your name is Qia Yingqie."

Cheng Yanqiu remembered that when he was playing piano here two years ago, he had indeed met a child and exchanged his name with her. The child's pronunciation was not standard at that time, so he pronounced her name as "Qi Ying Qie".

only……

Cheng Yanqiu looked up and down at the tall girl with outstanding temperament in front of him, with a look of disbelief on his face: "You are Jessica..."

The girl showed a bright smile: "Yes, my name is Jessica Johnson. I didn't expect you to remember my name."

Yu Dong also remembers her.

It's just that the Jessica two years ago was completely different from the tall and beautiful girl in front of her.

At that time, Jessica was small and looked about ten years old. She was wearing a small black suit, had short hair, parted crookedly, and her hair was combed oilily. She looked like a boy.

Cheng Yanqiu was also surprised and said: "You have changed too much."

Jessica smiled and touched her long hair: "I just kept my hair long."

"You are also much taller. I remember..." Cheng Yanqiu gestured with his hands, "At that time you only reached my armpits, but now you look almost as tall as me."

"Of course, I will be fourteen soon."

He will be fourteen soon... Yu Dong twitched his lips, Europeans and Americans are really precocious.

Cheng Yanqiu didn't expect to meet Jessica again here, and he was in a good mood, so he took her to chat for a few words.

Jessica lives nearby, so she often comes here to play. She also often plays the piano that Cheng Yanqiu plays.

Today, she was wandering around when she suddenly heard the sound of a piano and ran over to see who was playing. Unexpectedly, the person playing the piano turned out to be the singing teacher from China whom she met two years ago.

In the past few years, she has never forgotten the song "Bell" played by Cheng Yanqiu. She has had many piano teachers, but none of them could play it with that feeling.

"Can you come to my house to play? I have a very good piano at home." Jessica suddenly invited, "My house is not far from here, it's just a short walk away."

Cheng Yanqiu was a little confused: "But I am with my husband..."

"He can go too."

"..."

Yu Dong saw the expectation in Jessica's eyes and said with a smile: "I don't care. If you want to go, we can just go and sit there. It won't take long."

"Then...okay."

"Thank you, my piano will definitely not let you down." Jessica said happily.

…

Jessica's house is indeed not far from the Third Pedestrian Street, and the three of them walked there in just ten minutes.

This is a manor-style villa with a large area. The flowers and plants in the garden have obviously been carefully taken care of, and are well-proportioned without appearing messy.

When they entered, they saw a gardener pruning flowers and plants.

"Your home is big and beautiful." Cheng Yanqiu praised.

"Really, so you believe that I have a very good piano at home?"

"I believed it."

After entering the house, Jessica asked someone to make three cups of coffee, and then took Cheng Yanqiu and the others to the piano room.

The piano Jessica mentioned is a Steinway b211, which is indeed very good, and happens to be the same as the Steinway in Yu Dong's family.

Only then did Jessica ask the question she had been holding back in her mind, "What song were you playing on the pedestrian street just now?"

"It's an episode of a movie." Cheng Yanqiu replied.

"what movie?"

"The movie hasn't been released yet."

"Hasn't it been released yet?" Jessica showed a confused expression, "Since it hasn't been released, why are you playing it?"

"Because I wrote it."

Jessica sat on the piano bench and was silent for a moment. She did not expect to get such an answer.

After a while, she spoke again, "Can you still compose music?"

"Occasionally."

"Then...can you play this piece again?"

"sure."

…

Cheng Yanqiu and Jessica sat in front of the piano and chatted. Yu Dong was bored by himself, so he wandered around the piano room.

This piano room is quite large. In addition to the piano, there are also many other musical instruments.

There are portraits of famous musicians such as Beethoven, Mozart...

Through the window of the piano room, you can have a panoramic view of the garden in front, and you can also see other surrounding houses.

This is a villa area, and there are many houses like Jessica's house, but the decoration style of each villa is different.

For example, the building opposite.

Standing in the east position, you can clearly see the opposite yard. Unlike Jessica's yard, which is full of flowers, plants and trees, there is a small football field in the opposite yard, which looks much simpler.

On the football field, there is an old man playing football with a young man.

…

Modison felt that the holidays were a bit boring, so he could only play football with his grandfather in the yard. Jessica across the street was always not at home, and his few good friends did nothing else except play games.

The ball was kicked from my grandfather's feet, and he kicked it back again. Boring things always become more boring the more you do them.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Suddenly, he heard a faint sound of piano coming from the opposite door.

Is Jessica back?

Did she come back so early today?

"Modison, catch the ball."

Seeing Modison stop, Grandpa reminded him.

Modison kicked the ball back and said, "Grandpa, you must be tired. Take a rest."

After saying that, he ran out quickly before his grandfather could respond.

He left his yard and then went to Jessica's house.

Because they have been neighbors for many years, Jessica's servant quickly let him in.

"Is Jessica back?"

"Just came back." The servant nodded: "I also brought two guests..."

Modison couldn't hear the rest of the words, he was already going up the stairs.

When he arrived at the door of the piano room, Modison shouted: "Jessica, is it because the sun is too strong that you came back so early today?"

The sound of the piano stopped, and Jessica stared angrily at Hardison who had just entered the door.

"Hardison, I've told you many times, don't come and disturb me when I'm playing the piano."

Hardison was also a little confused. He didn't expect that Jessica was not the only one in the piano room.

"I, I didn't know you had guests." Hardison said weakly.

"I didn't tell you about the guests. I just said that as long as you hear the sound of the piano in the piano room, don't disturb me."

"But, as long as you are at home, you play the piano. When you are not playing, you are not at home."

"So, don't come to me."

Yu Dong watched the two of them bickering and pursed his lips into a smile.

The young man ran over from the opposite door with excitement on his face, and Yu Dong watched the whole process.

It seems Jessica already has an admirer.

The two bickered for a while, but Jessica probably saw that Cheng Yanqiu and the others were there, so she didn't continue. She just rolled her eyes and said, "You can stay in the piano room, but you can't make a sound."

"OK."

Jessica continued to discuss the music with Cheng Yanqiu. Hardison stood at the door and stared blankly. Yu Dong looked at his dumb look and smiled and waved to him.

Hardison came over with doubts.

Yu Dong smiled and asked, "Do you live across the street?"

Hardison was stunned, "How do you know?"

Yu Dong pointed to the window facing Hardison's house, and Hardison understood immediately.

"You and Jessica have known each other for a long time?"

Hardison nodded: "Well, I moved here when I was four years old, and Jessica's family was already here at that time."

"That was a long time indeed."

…

Feeling bored, Yu Dong chatted with the little boy.

At first, Hardison was a little restrained and not very open-minded. Later, as we chatted, he started to talk more, especially when he knew that Yu Dong and the others were not familiar with Jessica. They just happened to meet her when traveling before coming here.

After that, he became more relaxed.

It seemed to him that since Yu Dong was not familiar with Jessica, even if he said more, it would not reach Jessica's ears.

When he first met Jessica, he mistook her for a boy. For a long time, they had a good relationship, like buddies.

But in the past two years, Jessica suddenly changed and turned into a girl. For a period of time, he couldn't accept it...

Listening to Hardison talk about his and Jessica's past, Yu Dong also found it quite interesting. It sounded like they were childhood sweethearts, but not childhood sweethearts.

At noon, Jessica invited them to stay for dinner again, but they refused.

Jessica wrote her home phone number to Cheng Yanqiu and asked Cheng Yanqiu to contact her when he had time in the future.

Before leaving, Yu Dong was surprised to see an "old book" on the coffee table in the living room, and asked, "Is this book yours?"

Jessica shook her head, "No, this belongs to my grandmother. She loves reading books. She read this book all day yesterday."

Yu Dong smiled: "She has great taste in reading."
