Chapter 319 Suddenly Understood Li Xiaolang
clap clap-

The next second after Xiaoying and Xia Yu finished speaking, applause suddenly came from the door. Tomoyo appeared at the door of the music classroom at some point and walked in while clapping.

"sounds so good."

"When you sang once, I took note of it."

Facing Chiyo's applause, Elio smiled and said, "Because your singing voice is great."

Upon hearing this, Zhi Shi smiled back and said, "Thank you for the compliment."

On the side, Xia Yu looked at Chise and Elio who were communicating, and then looked at the gentle smile on Elio's face. Somehow, he suddenly felt a little unhappy.

Especially when Tomoyo applauded Elio, he seemed to understand why Li Syaoran was unhappy with Elio.

Damn old ghost pretending to be young.

Feeling inexplicably jealous, Xia Yu came to Elio's side, then pushed Elio away from the bench with his butt, crossed his fingers and pressed them, then loosened his fingers a little.

"Isn't it just playing the piano? What's so difficult about that? I'll perform a song too."

Elio, who was pushed aside, saw Xia Yu like this, smiled and walked aside on his own initiative. His squinted eyes made it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

When Zhishi saw Xia Yu's slightly childish and cute behavior, he was slightly stunned, then a smile appeared in his eyes and the corners of his mouth rose involuntarily.

Xiaoying didn't notice anything, but said happily: "So you can play the piano, Xia. Do you want to play the piece that Elio just played?"

"No, since Elio has played it, I will change to an instrumental music that I personally like very much. I'm sure you will like it too."

After saying that, Xia Yu placed his ten fingers on the piano keys, asked Xiao Xi to open the music score in his mind, and then started playing.

In an instant, a light rhythm slowly emerged from the piano keys, just like a cool breeze penetrating into the heart on a summer day, simple and transparent, fresh and natural, smart and lively.

As the piano sound echoed, the others who were listening couldn't help but be intoxicated by it. The light piano sound was like a wind chime hanging by the window, swaying in the wind and making bursts of clear and pleasant sounds.

After a while, the song was finished.

After a few seconds, everyone came back to their senses.

Sakura subconsciously praised: "It sounds great, Xia classmate you are amazing."

"It's not that I'm great."

Hearing Xiaoying's praise, Xia Yu shook his head and said, "It's this music that's great. I'm just imitating that legendary music master."

"Music Master? Who is that?"

"Yes……"

"It's Mr. Hisaishi, right?"

Just as Xia Yu was about to speak, Zhi Shi suddenly answered for him: "What Xia Yu just played was the soundtrack from the movie "Kikujiro's Summer", and this soundtrack was composed by the famous composer Joe Hisaishi."

"Hmm? Zhishi, you actually heard it?" Xia Yu looked at Zhishi with a little surprise. He thought he had to explain again.

"Because I have seen this movie. I didn't expect that classmate Xia would choose the theme song of the movie this time. I thought classmate Xia would play a song that none of us have heard of." Tomoyo said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xia Yu also subconsciously sighed: "Music can carry memories. This music always reminds me of the past that I can never go back to. Even after more than 20 years, this piano piece about summer is still quite famous and widely spread."

"I can't go back...it's been more than 20 years..."

Hearing Xia Yu's words, Chise's eyes flashed. It was obvious that "Kikujiro's Summer" was a new movie that was released this summer.

"Wow - it turns out there's a movie associated with this music. I must go see it when I have time." Sakura's eyes lit up slightly when she heard the conversation between Xia Yu and Tomoyo, and she said with a little excitement.

Zhi Shi heard this and smiled, "Let's go and see it together when we have time."

"Okay!" After making an agreement with Tomoyo, Sakura looked at Xia Yu happily and said, "By the way, since you can play the piano, would you like to play a song with Elio to accompany Tomoyo?"

"Huh? Playing together? Why would I…"

"Xia, don't you want to accompany me?"

Before Xia Yu could refuse, Zhishi suddenly looked at him. The expectation in his eyes made Xia Yu pause, and his originally loud voice gradually weakened.

"No, it's just..."

"Classmate Xia Yu, I would be happy to play a song with you. Don't worry, I will cooperate with you." Seeing that Xia Yu wanted to say something, Elio suddenly looked over and smiled slightly.

Facing Elio's impeccable smile, Xia Yu let out a light sigh. Since he had said that and specifically asked her to cooperate with him, it would be unreasonable for him to refuse.

"Okay, but..."

"but?"

"But Chise, have you forgotten something?"

Xia Yu suddenly looked at Zhishi. The slight expectation in his eyes startled Zhishi. He immediately wanted to cover his mouth and chuckle, but it was not good to laugh out loud at this time. Zhishi could only suppress his laughter and reached out to applaud.

"Xia-san, you play very well too. You are not inferior to Hiiragi-san at all."

"Tsk, it's just..."

Before Xia Yu finished muttering, Chiyo looked at Elio and said, "But I personally prefer Xia-san's playing. Sorry, Hiiragi-san."

"It doesn't matter. After all, Xia Yu plays the piano very well." Elio smiled slightly and responded to Zhishi's words.

Hearing this, Xia Yu's inexplicable unhappiness suddenly disappeared. He stood up in a good mood, brought a stool from the stage, placed it in front of the piano, and sat down.

Then he patted the bench that was originally placed in front of the piano and said to Elio beside him: "Come on, I'm ready."

Seeing this, Elio walked over with a smile, sat down next to Xia Yu, and placed his hands on the piano keys.

"I'm ready too."

Seeing this, Sakura hurried to the desk under the stage and sat down, supporting her face with her hands and waiting for the show to begin. Tomoyo also clasped her hands and came to the piano.

The next second, the sound of piano rang out, and Chise's singing also sounded.

The melodious piano music and the soft singing voice complemented each other, slowly echoing in the empty music classroom. The complementary combination made Sakura unable to help but close her eyes and immerse herself in it.

When the song was finished, the piano music stopped.

Sakura came back to her senses and quickly stood up, clapping, "Great, great!"

She walked quickly to Chiyo, held Chiyo's hand and said, "You sang so beautifully, Chiyo."

After she finished, Sakura looked at the two people in front of the piano and said, "Thank you too, Elio and Xia."

Elio nodded and smiled in response, then he turned his head to look at Xia Yu beside him and smiled softly: "Very impressive, Xia Yu is really like what other students said, he is a person who can handle anything."

"Don't talk to me in that tone..."

Facing Elio's gaze and listening to the deliberately slowed tone of voice, Xia Yu felt a little awkward.

And he also discovered one thing. Elio, let alone other things, had a gentle gaze that was really fair to everyone. He gave it to everyone he looked at.

I still remember that when this person looked at Li Xiaolang, he had the same expression and gentle gaze.

Tsk.
