Chapter 21: In the Coffee Shop (Increased by 15 collections, more updates)

  "How is it you?" Ye Siying said in surprise.

  Because of excessive emotional excitement, Ye Siying unconsciously amplified her voice, attracting the attention of the surrounding onlookers.

  Actually, when the two school flowers of the music department walked into the reading room, countless people had already noticed them. There were even people who quietly took back their books that they had placed on the adjacent seats, just to have the expectation that the school flower could sit next to them.

  But the two of them walked straight towards Yang Tao and Chen Chufan, which was enough to shatter the hearts of countless onlookers. Before long, Ye Siying suddenly let out a shocked cry, giving the onlookers an excuse to brazenly direct their attention at the two music department beauties. Some even secretly changed seats, moving to positions closer to the door and straining to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two.

  "Ah!" Chen Chufan made an unconscious sound, because he really didn't know how to respond properly. Should he answer nonchalantly: "En, it's me, nice to see you again! How have you been lately?" That was Yang Tao's style, not Chen Chufan's. So after his "ah", Chen Chufan could only awkwardly stare at the two lovely girls in front of him, fidgeting uncomfortably in his seat.

  On one side, Han Xiaoxi looked at Chen Chufan and Ye Siying with suspicion. Meanwhile, Ye Siying's face was also constantly changing, she couldn't reconcile the image of a boy who understood music so thoroughly with the image of a boy who was domineering on the basketball court, handsome and dashing, as well as the news she had just heard about him bullying someone in front of the cafeteria. These three images kept shifting in her mind, finally merging into the image of the seemingly very embarrassed, restless boy in front of her.

  "Are you Chen Chufan?" Ye Siying asked again.

  "Yes!" Chen Chufan nodded his head and honestly admitted it.

  "That day I went to the music room, I don't know how it happened but I rushed in and messed up your piano, sorry!" Seeing Ye Siying's expression seemed puzzled, but absolutely not looking for trouble, Chen Chufan hastily added.

  "Ah? You're the mysterious boy who played the piano for Xiaosi in the music room!" Han Xiaoxi suddenly understood why Ye Siying was so flustered, and she blurted it out straightforwardly.

  The cows next to them were extremely excited, what a big scoop! Someone was playing the piano for the music department's number one talent in the music room, and many people were so surprised that they let out exclamations of surprise.

  Two campus belle-level beauties simultaneously realized that this place didn't seem suitable for conversation, so Ye Siying straightforwardly invited: "Why don't we go out and find a place to chat?"

  "Alright, alright!" Yang Tao, who had been trying to find a way to chime in for half the day, immediately began to brush up his presence. From the moment the two school flowers walked over and sat down next to him, he had been searching for an opportunity to interject, but unfortunately, both beauties had their attention completely focused on Chen Chufan beside him, a realization that left Yang Tao resentful. Finally seeing the beauty propose going out, while Chen Chufan sat there stupidly without responding, he immediately picked up the conversation.

  Then the two beauties stood up first and walked out of the reading room. Yang Tao grabbed Chen Chufan, who was still sitting on the stool, and didn't even put the book back on the shelf, and hurriedly followed the footsteps of the two in front.

  "You played the piano for the music department's first beauty in the music room! It seems that your claim of being able to play a little piano yesterday was true! Wow, it turns out you were really low-key before!" Yang Tao said softly to Chen Chufan on the way.

  "Uh-huh!" Chen Chufan was clearly distracted and responded casually.

  "It seems that Han Xiaoxi invited you today. Ye Siying obviously came with Han Xiaoxi, but then suddenly found you instead! No wonder. I saw Han Xiaoxi at the competition venue that day too! How come I didn't think of inviting you would be her? If I had known she was coming with Ye Siying, I should have changed into a better outfit before going out!" Yang Tao muttered to himself.

  "En!" Chen Chufan Meng Wei's expression was like a perfunctory response to Yang Tao's words.

  "I'm asking you, are you learning from Lao Da? Can't you give some constructive criticism?" Yang Tao was getting annoyed.

  "Hmm!" Chen Chufan responded monotonously to Yang Tao.

  Fifteen minutes later, the four of them were sitting in a coffee shop called Canvas outside the school.

  This is a coffee shop that Ye Siyi particularly likes, with its uniquely designed hanging basket chairs, simple layout, warm atmosphere, and relatively private space. The Mendelssohn piano on the second floor makes this coffee shop Ye Siyi's first choice for passing time when she's bored. She often chooses to bring a magazine and sit alone on the second floor; if she feels like it and there aren't many people around, she'll even go play a tune on the piano.

  "As soon as you asked our family's Lao San to come out and meet, what's going on? Is someone interested in our family's Lao San?" Yang Tao asked as soon as they sat down. He had been holding back this question for a long time. On the way here, he wanted to discuss this with Chen Chufan, but Chen Chufan was dazed and couldn't communicate at all, so when the four of them sat down in the coffee shop, Yang Tao immediately asked.

  The faces of the two girls simultaneously flushed with redness. Han Xiaohui gave Yang Tao an annoyed glance. This person's words were too straightforward, she was a girl herself, and taking the initiative to meet a boy was already embarrassing enough, yet he asked so bluntly!

  "This classmate, we agreed on Chen Chufan, he didn't even ask what's the matter, why are you so anxious to ask?!!" Han Xiaoxi said angrily.

  "Haha!" Yang Tao brought out his signature lecherous smile, not feeling the slightest bit embarrassed as he continued to say: "Our family's third son is simple and shy, I'm just asking on his behalf! Our family's third son is a good kid, if any girl has thoughts about our third son, I have to do some investigation first. You should know that our little Chen classmate has just gone through the blow of a breakup, if your purpose for inviting him out is somewhat unspeakable, I'll have to help him filter it out."

  Yang Tao's words left the three people present simultaneously speechless. Two school flower-level beauties, which one doesn't have countless pursuers?! Yang Tao's words made it seem like Chen Chufan had ulterior motives, but coincidentally, Han Xiaoxi's purpose seemed to have a bit of what Yang Tao said, leaving the two young girls unable to refute. Unable to refute, this again left the two beauties feeling indignant!

  Chen Chufan was really embarrassed by Yang Tao's words. He was already nervous and fidgety, but when Yang Tao spoke, he had the urge to flee in embarrassment.

  Fortunately, the waiter at the cafe followed up in time and asked the three of them what drinks they needed, which slightly relieved the awkwardness on the scene.

  Ye Siying ordered a cup of Blue Mountain, Han Xiaoxi chose a cup of apple juice, Yang Tao ordered a cup of milk tea, and Chen Chufan looked at the price list back and forth before choosing a cup of plain water.

  When the four of them had all chosen their drinks, Ye Siying suddenly spoke up and said: "Can you play that song 'Starry Sky' again?" Among the four people present, Ye Siying's was probably the most complicated. She never expected that the mysterious boy she met in the music room would be the one her best friend Han Xiaohui had a crush on.

  So all the way to the coffee shop, her spirit was also dazed. The three different images of Chen Chufan kept flashing in her mind, and she even didn't want to believe that the man she had been expecting to meet again would actually be this boy who was currently very popular.

  "Huh? Not here, right?" Chen Chufan looked at Ye Siying with some surprise, because the performance in the music room that time had left a faint impression on him, like a dream. So he wasn't clear how much impact his playing had on the girl in front of him.

  "Others call you to go, just go! Are you a man or not? Yesterday in the dormitory, you said you used to learn it when you were young! It's just right to play a piece and I'll appreciate it too!" Yang Tao on the side was dissatisfied. Yesterday he said he wanted to be high-profile, but today after seeing two beauties, Chen Chufan became timid again, how can this do?!

  "Yes, go play a song! That day I heard Xiaosi say that there was a mysterious boy who was very good at piano, and I've been curious about what level he's at! So I also want to hear it!" Han Xiaoxi chimed in from the side. In fact, Han Xiaoxi's heart was also very conflicted, she had never expected that the guy she liked would turn out to be the mysterious boy she met in Ye Siying's music classroom. However, Han Xiaoxi was a simple girl, she wouldn't overthink things, and instead became even more curious about Chen Chufan.

  A boy who jumped into the lake for love should be a melancholic personality. But he can face the provocation of the law school on the basketball court, so unrestrained. Even able to dunk in anger. A boy who plays basketball well is unlikely to be interested in music, such an artistic thing. But his piano skills are praised by Ye Siying, known as the number one pianist at Min University. A boy who loves art should be a gentle and elegant type, but he slapped the president of their grade student union three times at the entrance of the cafeteria. How can this be the same person? Han Xiaohui sighed in her heart.

  When he saw the three people asking him to play a song, Chen Chufan knew he couldn't escape. He simply took a deep breath, stood up and walked to the piano placed on the second floor of the coffee shop. Sitting down on the stool in front of the piano, Chen Chufan subconsciously looked around and saw that apart from Yang Tao and two music department school beauties, there were only four people on this floor, seemingly two couples. They were all whispering to each other, not noticing his actions.

  Chen Chufan slightly relieved his tense emotions and looked at the piano in front of him.
