Chapter 225 A Love Song for Shen He
Chapter 225 A Love Song for Shen He
After Qin Yi, Jun Lin also spoke a few words to the Shen brothers, which were nothing more than warnings and instructions to Song Jingcheng.
Song Jingcheng listened patiently and quietly throughout the whole process without any impatience.
Because he knew that those who were invited to this dinner were the people Shen He cared about the most.
After the dinner, Shen He told everyone: "After dinner, you can go to the Mans Club and have fun singing and hanging out at the bar."
But she wanted to accompany Song Jingcheng to KTV to sing.
Because Song Jingcheng had never been to a KTV in his life. His family was very strict when he was a teenager, so he had no chance. Later, when he had freedom, his health deteriorated again.
Taking advantage of this lively opportunity, Shen He wanted to take Song Jingcheng to experience the nightlife of young people.
Everyone readily agreed, except Shen Sri, who had to go back to the police station to work overtime, so the party ended early.
The club has three floors. The first floor is a bar, the second floor is a KTV, and the third floor is a high-end entertainment club with better privacy, offering snooker, fencing and other activities.
On the way, Jun Lin learned that Song Jingcheng had never been to KTV. He had originally planned to go to the third floor to play snooker, but he changed his mind temporarily and decided to go to the private room to join in the fun and listen to Song Jingcheng's singing.
"Brother Song, have you decided what to sing?" Jun Lin also followed Qin Yi in calling Song Jingcheng "brother". He sat at the song request counter and read the latest popular song list to Song Jingcheng.
The songs these days sound very abstract. Song Jingcheng may have heard them but he can't sing them and doesn't even know the names of the songs.
Without hesitation, he said, "I will sing 'The Sorrow of a Loving Mother with Thousands of Flower Stamens'."
Hearing the title of the song, Jun Lin was stunned, "What?"
Song Jingcheng repeated the name again.
Jun Lin still looked puzzled.
He wiped his face and sighed, "Maybe I'm too old to know what song this is."
Worried that he was out of date, Jun Lin asked Shen He and Shen Jinyan, "Have you heard of it?"
Shen Jinyan just shook his head, while Shen He looked thoughtful.
Only then did Jun Lin put his heart back in his stomach.
It’s not that he was left behind by the times, but that Song Jingcheng was at the forefront of the times.
Qin Yi said: "I guess it should be the Hokkien song that has been popular on TikTok recently. It sounds good, but it is difficult to sing. A thousand people can sing a thousand different Hokkien tones."
Qin Yi walked to Jun Lin's side, ordered for Jun Xiuchen, and actively handed the microphone to Song Jingcheng. She said, "Brother Song, come on, it's your turn to sing."
Song Jingcheng had already realized that something was wrong at this time.
He was hesitant and too embarrassed to speak, but under Shen He's encouraging gaze, he still began to sing haltingly.
"In the afternoon, a man crouched in the house.
Northwest rain, the clothes outside the window are damp
Those who are outside the city have not yet come back.
Waiting stupidly, holding an umbrella stupidly..."
As soon as Song Jingcheng opened his mouth, Shen He thought he heard a paranoid mental patient chanting scriptures, with clear pronunciation and loud voice.
It didn't sound like singing, but more like the spell chanted by Tang Monk, which wiped out all the merits accumulated by the Song family for a hundred years.
Everyone in the box was already laughing.
Shen He laughed the most wildly and fell directly into Song Jingcheng's arms, holding her stomach and groaning.
"Oh my, oh my, Mr. Song, Boss Song, please have mercy on us and spare us. We really don't deserve to die."
Song Jingcheng immediately turned off the microphone.
Looking at Shen He's eyes that were filled with tears from laughing, he looked depressed and said gloomily, "This is the song I practiced specially for you. Netizens said that being able to sing this song successfully means that you have rehearsed with your heart."
"You don't like it?"
"I like your sincerity in being thoughtful to me, but I really can't just blindly praise your singing." Shen He also looked innocent.
Song Jingcheng immediately lost his temper.
Then he said, “Actually, I have another song prepared.”
Shen He's ears haven't recovered yet.
Just as she was about to say forget it, she heard Song Jingcheng say, "I used to like a literary and artistic worker very much. He passed away due to illness. I was in adolescence at that time."
"That period was the most serious years for me to fight with my mother. Every night when it was quiet, I also had thoughts of suicide."
"After the death of that idol, I wanted to end my life even more, to end this unfree life. But then I saw a sentence he left in his suicide note."
Shen He unconsciously turned into someone who was listening attentively.
She whispered, "Which sentence?"
Song Jingcheng said: "He said: I have never done anything bad in my life, why is this happening?"
Hearing this, Shen He guessed who his idol was.
Song Jingcheng said: "After that, every time I couldn't sleep at night but had to pretend to be asleep, I would think, I have never done anything bad, why was I the one who died?"
"I can't die. I have to live longer than those who want to see me fall."
After saying that, Song Jingcheng stood up, walked to the song ordering screen, and ordered a song.
"Given to my Mrs. Shen out of love for you."
This is a love song that is too old.
Even if he was laughed at as an old man, Song Jingcheng didn't mind. The songs sung by young people today are indeed very nice, but they don't have the unique memories of his youth.
Song Jingcheng sat on a high stool, rolled up his black shirt, and picked up the microphone with his slender five fingers.
He seemed to be reading an old, affectionate love letter, and he sang softly and lovingly:
"I love you with all my heart
Please treasure this love.
Never tell secrets to anyone
For the first time in my life, I speak my heart out
... "
As soon as Song Jingcheng opened his mouth this time, the box fell into a subtle silence.
Even Shen Jinyan, who didn't know how to appreciate music, turned off his phone screen, sat in the corner, folded his arms, and listened attentively to his brother-in-law singing.
If the previous song sang all the evils in the world, then this song expresses deep love and no regrets.
Qin Yi came back to her senses and saw that Shen He was also moved by what she heard. She quickly turned on the camera to record this precious scene.
After singing, Song Jingcheng turned off the microphone. Seeing that no one said anything, he felt a little uneasy.
Did it screw up again?
That's not right. He has listened to this song countless times, from the time when MP3s were popular to the present day. He wouldn't mess up singing it, right?
"Well done!"
Shen He was the first to stand up and applaud Song Jingcheng.
With Shen He taking the lead, Jun Lin and the others also came to their senses and applauded Song Jingcheng enthusiastically.
Jun Lin came over with a bottle of beer, smiled and patted Song Jingcheng on the shoulder. He said, "I didn't realize that Brother Song is so good at singing."
This was the first time Song Jingcheng was praised for his singing talent. He stood up calmly and asked Jun Lin, "Would you like to go upstairs?"
"Okay."
He accompanied Jun Lin downstairs to play a fencing game, and without any suspense he knocked the fencing sword out of Jun Lin's hand.
Jun Lin was not angry. He took off his helmet and said to Song Jingcheng, "I heard my second brother mention you. You were quite famous in Africa before, a well-known sharpshooter."
"My second brother said that there was a peacekeeping operation at that time, and you cooperated with them."
Hearing this, Song Jingcheng's eyes showed a look of reminiscence.
That was more than ten years ago.
"Brother Song." Jun Lin patted Song Jingcheng's shoulder heavily and said, "Live a good life, don't let our Lady Shen be a widow."
"You know, Miss Shen is the most beautiful lady in Qing City. If you die, she will become the most beautiful lady in Qing City. By then, the lovers chasing after her will line up from Qing City to the United States."
"You were in the coffin, and you couldn't even cry."
Song Jingcheng narrowed his eyes and asked Jun Lin jokingly, "Are you a playboy?"
Hearing Song Jingcheng's tentative intention, Jun Lin's heart was alarmed, "Song Jingcheng, don't doubt my integrity. Rabbits don't eat grass near their nests. I don't want to be a partner."
He really didn't have any ambiguous feelings towards Shen He.
"Shen He and I are like Bole and Qianlima, and like Boya and Juexian. Mr. Song can rest assured."
Song Jingcheng smiled, picked up the fencing sword and handed it to Jun Lin. He said, "Let's play another round."
Jun Lin: "I'm happy to accompany you."
*
After playing two rounds of fencing, Jun Lin and Song Jingcheng were already close at arm's length.
Song Jingcheng looked at his watch and said, "It's almost ten o'clock. We'll leave first and meet again next time."
He is preparing for pregnancy recently, so he can't stay up late and needs to take good care of his body.
Waving his hand, Jun Lin said, "I'm going to play snooker."
Song Jingcheng went downstairs to look for Shen He and met the two brothers Shen Jinyan and Shen Hanwen. Shen Jinyan was sitting in a booth at the bar on the first floor, surrounded by several busty beauties, all of whom were charming, young and beautiful.
But Shen Jinyan was not moved at all, and even took out his mobile phone to play Candy Crush.
The youngest, Shen Hanwen, sat opposite Shen Jinyan, using his hands dipped in wine to draw pictures for the pretty ladies on the table, showing off his literary talent.
Song Jingcheng saw this scene, walked over and patted Shen Hanwen on the head, warning him: "If your teacher knew that you used this trick to pick up girls, he would kick you out."
Shen Hanwen covered his head and muttered softly, "Master's heart and eyes are full of Senior Brother Ye Xingren, how could he care about a cowardly disciple like me?"
Hearing this, Song Jingcheng was a little surprised, "Night Walker didn't take your master as his disciple, so you called the senior brother?"
Shen Hanwen folded his arms and looked at Song Jingcheng, with a ostentatious look in his eyes.
He said: "My master said that Night Walker is seriously ill and will not live long. He may have died young. When he dies, we will tell everyone that Night Walker has secretly become my disciple."
"According to the time, the eldest brother should be no longer alive. It's okay for me to call him the eldest brother."
With just a few words, Shen Hanwen betrayed his master completely.
Song Jingcheng was silent for a long while before he said, "Hanwen, my brother-in-law has a small gift for you. It's in the car."
Song Jingcheng handed the car keys to Shen Hanwen and said, "Go get it yourself."
Shen Hanwen grabbed the key and asked curiously, "What is it?"
Song Jingcheng said: "You will know if you look in the trunk."
Shen Hanwen turned into a gust of wind and ran to the garage to find a gift.
Shen Jinyan had been sitting silently in the booth playing Candy Crush. After Shen Hanwen left, he turned off his phone, looked up and said to Song Jingcheng, "Are you a night walker?"
Song Jingcheng lowered his eyes, met Shen Jinyan's eyes, and couldn't help asking, "How did you guess that?"
Shen Jinyan said: "Just now when Hanwen mentioned the night walker, you were silent for longer seconds than usual, which shows that you are not at peace."
"Also, the last time we accompanied Big Sister to visit the Mu family, among the gifts you gave Big Sister was an oil painting titled "Painful Kiss of the Rose", which was signed by Night Walker."
"So I dare to guess that my brother-in-law is the Night Walker, Hanwen's most admired idol."
"You are really smart." Shen Jinyan stripped off his vest completely, leaving not even his underwear, but Song Jingcheng didn't care.
"Words of caution."
"Be careful of your colleagues."
In his previous life, Shen Jinyan was framed and imprisoned, and poisoned to the point of becoming insane, which meant that there was a traitor around him.
Shen He never told Shen Jinyan about these things. Firstly, she was afraid of disturbing Shen Jinyan's immersed in research, and secondly, she was afraid that Shen Jinyan would doubt the secret of her rebirth.
But Song Jingcheng doesn't think Shen Jinyan is a greenhouse white flower.
It is impossible for him to remain a genius student in an ivory tower forever.
In the future, he will go out into society, become the mainstay of the Shen family, and carry the Shen family shoulder to shoulder with Shen He.
Only by informing Shen Jinyan of the variables in advance can we turn the passive situation into active one and catch the bug.
Besides, Shen Jinyan was in the eye of the storm, how could he remain unscathed?
When Shen Jinyan heard Song Jingcheng's reminder, a glimmer of suspicion suddenly flashed in his eyes. In recent months, the teacher had reminded him of this matter many times, mainly because he was worried that someone would use the people around him to deal with him.
But Song Jingcheng is not a colleague in the institute, nor is he his teacher, so his reminder is not groundless.
Besides...
Shen Jinyan secretly clenched his phone and told Song Jingcheng: "Before Mu Qing was sent to Africa by you, she called me and begged me to let her go."
Only then did Shen Jinyan realize that the reason why Song Jingcheng and Shen He wanted to hold Mu Qing accountable was because of him.
However, it is not necessary for my sister and brother-in-law to kill Mu Qing just because of the grudge before the college entrance examination.
unless...
Mu Qing also did something even more despicable to him, something that challenged Shen He's bottom line.
But Shen Jinyan thought about it and still had no idea what unforgivable thing Mu Qing had done to him.
"Brother-in-law."
Shen Jinyan moved his thin lips several times before he asked in a hoarse voice, "My elder sister used to avoid the Shen family, but one day, she suddenly changed her attitude."
"Do you think it's strange?"
As the smartest child in the Shen family, Shen Jinyan was the first one to discover the doubts about Shen He's death in his previous life. How could he be completely indifferent to the changes that might have happened to Shen He?
I just didn’t think about it before.
But once he started to dig deeper, Shen Jinyan could easily follow some subtle clues and unravel the truth.
What Shen Jinyan said just now was very suggestive.
Perhaps he had already guessed Shen He's secret in his heart, but he just didn't say it out loud.
Song Jingcheng didn't point it out, but just said: "Mu Qing has a perverted hobby. If she can't get someone or something, she will completely destroy it or break it."
Nodding his head, Song Jingcheng said: "Jinyan, you have a very smart brain."
Shen Jinyan understood Song Jingcheng's hint.
Mu Qing is going to destroy his IQ!
Maybe, she had done it before, and the elder sister happened to know it, so she wanted to kill Mu Qing!
Thinking of this, Shen Jinyan's first reaction was not to hate Mu Qing, but to feel sorry for Shen He.
The eldest sister carried the secret alone and fought her way out under the oppression of Mu Tingyun. How tiring must it have been along the way?
