Three-Party Meeting

Two boys entered the private room, and Yan Wei's best friend immediately pulled her boyfriend over to teach him a lesson. The place where Xia Yu was sitting was very close to the two of them, and he heard their conversation.

"What did you bring him here for?" the girl asked.

"He said he wanted to come over when he heard Yan Wei was here. Didn't you want to introduce Yan Wei to him before? What happened?" The boy looked confused but also realized that he seemed to have caused some trouble.

"That was when Yan Wei was rejected by Xia Yu, now they have a chance! Besides, I didn't know he was so stubborn at that time!" The girl urged anxiously, "You better take him away now."

"Leaving is not necessary, it would be disrespectful to him. Anyway, we're just here to sing together. Xia Yu is the one sitting in the middle, right? I'll apologize to him after it's over." The face-saving boy was unwilling to do something inconsistent.

"But look at him, does he really want to sing?"

After listening to the girl's words, Xia Yu glanced at the guitar boy. Although the guitar boy was not sitting next to Yan Wei, his eyes were always on her.

"Bringing a guitar to a KTV, don't tell me he wants to sing a confession song!" the girl continued.

The boy was silent for three seconds before standing up and saying to the guitar boy, "I just remembered I had an appointment with someone to play games online. Let's go together!"

He tried to take the guitar boy away.

"You go ahead, I'll stay." The guitar boy was not good at reading the room.

"The girls want to play by themselves, let's go to another room!" the boy tried again.

The guitar boy hesitated for a moment and then unzipped his guitar case, "I'll sing a song first then."

Obviously, he was up to something! The boy became anxious.

The other two girls also stood up, "Whoever plays a guitar in a KTV, you can play it some other time!"

Even though the guitar boy was terrible at reading the atmosphere, he could tell something was off. However, he couldn't pinpoint where the problem was, so he decided to stick to his plan.

He took out his guitar and was about to put it on when Xia Yu reached out in front of him, "I'd like to play something too. Can I borrow your guitar for a moment?"

"You know how to play too?" The guitar boy hesitated for a moment before handing the guitar to Xia Yu.

"Xia Yu, I never knew you could play the guitar?" The two girls were surprised.

They exchanged a glance with Yan Wei.

A look of delight flashed in the eyes of the three of them.

In this situation, the only way to defuse the tension was to kill the guitar boy's intentions, so Xia Yu had to confess to Yan Wei!

One of the girls took out her phone and started recording.

Placing the guitar on his lap, Xia Yu played a little tune to warm up his hands, and then began playing.

The brisk intro sounded.

Everyone looked at each other; they all liked songs and had heard most of the slightly famous ones, but they couldn't tell which song Xia Yu was playing.

The brisk intro ended, the rhythm slowed down, and Xia Yu started to sing.

"The brightest star in the night sky

Can you hear it clearly

The loneliness and sighs

From the heart of the person gazing up at it."

Everyone looked at each other; they hadn't heard this song before.

However, the melody, lyrics, and deep voice were really beautiful.

The two girls grabbed Yan Wei's hand, becoming somewhat excited.

The chorus part ended, and Xia Yu's pitch went up.

"I pray for a transparent heart

And tearful eyes

Give me the courage to believe again

Oh, to get past the lies and embrace you"

The melodious refrain made Yan Wei and the others completely excited, especially the last line "crossing the lies to embrace you." Was this the part where they started to confess their feelings?

"Every time I can't find the meaning of existence

Every time I get lost in the night

Oh~ the brightest star in the night sky

Please guide me closer to you"

Soon, the group of people forgot their original purpose and became engrossed in appreciating the song.

"The brightest star in the night sky

Can you hear clearly

The person who looks up

The loneliness and sighs in their hearts"

The last note was played, and Xia Yu put down his guitar.

"What song is this? How have we never heard it before?" The group of people surrounded Xia Yu.

"The Brightest Star in the Night Sky," Xia Yu said.

This was a song from his previous life, he remembered the lyrics, and after trying to recall the melody, he unexpectedly played it in its entirety.

It was indeed a level 3 music skill.

"What a great song, and your voice is amazing too."

"Can't find it online, is it an original piece?"

After a series of inquiries, the group of people calmed down.

The two girls looked at Yan Wei.

They hadn't noticed it earlier because the song was so good, but thinking about it now, it didn't seem like a love song, but rather a bit sentimental.

What happened to the confession?

Of course, Xia Yu couldn't confess. He handed the guitar to the guitarist and casually asked, "What were you going to play?"

"I won't play anymore," said the guitarist, waving his hands. His limelight had already been stolen by Xia Yu, and if he played now, it would only be a literal performance of making a fool of himself.

The young man's pride prevented him from confessing at this moment.

And so, Xia Yu achieved his goal.

He sat on the sofa, drinking water.

"Brother, can you write songs too?" Yuxue leaned towards him, looking at him with her sparkling eyes.

"I can do a little." When Xia Yu first arrived in this time, he recorded all the songs he could remember.

He had sold one, only getting five thousand, and the singer had messed it up.

After that, he hadn't touched songwriting again. What he lacked wasn't the money from selling songs - even if he sold all of them, he couldn't exchange them for a single commodity house.

"Who taught you the guitar?" Another voice asked.

Xia Yu looked at the guitarist sitting next to him.

"He's not very famous," Xia Yu said.

"Did you write the lyrics and melody yourself? Can you give me some pointers?" The guitarist took out a pen and paper from his guitar bag, wrote down his own lyrics and tune.

He picked up the guitar again and played a section for Xia Yu.

Xia Yu casually gave a few pointers, and the guitarist became even more excited, constantly asking for advice from Xia Yu.

He didn't even look at Yan Wei anymore.

Yan Wei, left all alone, watched the two intimately discussing lyrics and melodies, feeling a bit sad.

Why did things turn out like this!

By nine o'clock in the evening, the group left the KTV.

"Xia Yu, let's get together again next time!" The guitarist waved to Xia Yu.

"Sure," Xia Yu waved back.

The guitarist was a little single-minded in his thinking, but he was a decent person after all.

Watching the interaction between the two, the boy asked his girlfriend, "Are you sure he came for Yan Wei and not for Xia Yu?"

The girl looked at Yan Wei with concern, and Yan Wei's expression was aggrieved.

She had wanted to get closer to Xia Yu, but Xia Yu had been entangled with the guitar guy the whole time.

"Don't learn from his stubbornness!" The girl said to her boyfriend.

"Don't worry."

After bidding each other farewell, the group dispersed. Xia Yu first sent Yan Wei and Yan Li home, then returned home with Yuxue.

After washing up, he lay in bed.

His neglect of Yan Wei at the KTV was not only due to the guitar guy's entanglement but also his deliberate behavior.

Girls were such troublesome creatures, always trying to achieve other goals through food. Why couldn't they just focus on the food itself?

An Siyao's obedience was preferable.

Xia Yu hadn't used his gaming opportunity for the day. He opened the column, thought for a while, and clicked on Xu Youxiang's column.

He hadn't seen Xu Youxiang in a long time.

After a moment of darkness, he saw the laptop screen running the game.

Taking over the game, Xia Yu began to enjoy himself.

"Oh, you remembered me?" Xu Youxiang asked.

"No, I just came to play some games," Xia Yu replied.

"When you have time, tell her about it on the Penguin."

Xia Yu opened Xu Youxiang's Penguin and saw An Siyao's account. The account note was "stupid and rich."

After sending a message to An Siyao that he was at Xu Youxiang's place and wouldn't be visiting her tonight, Xia Yu resumed playing the game.

An hour and a half later, he heard the doorbell ring.
