Entertaining Children

  Chapter 419 Boyfriend

  After eating breakfast, and taking a short break, Xiao Yao carried his guitar, and accompanied by Tim Haggis, left the hotel and headed to Beba Avenue where the Chambers Conservatory is located.

To play the guitar on the street, the volume of the guitar itself is obviously not enough. Fortunately, there are a lot of various musical instruments in this area. There is no need to look for it in the daytime. Xiao Yao easily found an equipment on the road. The rental shop rented a portable amplifier speaker and guitar cable, and dragged them to outside the Chambers Conservatory.

  Xiao Yao chose the street outside a coffee shop near the school as his performing place, and began to connect the equipment. Tim Haggis went around and observed the surrounding environment. When he returned to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao had already carried the guitar on his back and was ready to start.

"Young, why don't you open the piano case and put it in front of you?" Tim Haggis looked at the piano case with the lid closed and asked Xiao Yao strangely, "Aren't you a street performer? You let others Where do I put the money for you?"

   "That's right, I forgot, thank you for reminding." Xiao Yao nodded, then leaned over to open the piano case and put it in front of him.

   Xiao Yao came here to be a street performer to surprise someone, not really wanting to make money from this, and he has never considered this issue. But under the reminder of Tim Haggis, Xiao Yao suddenly felt that it would be nice to make some money by the way, so he immediately followed the good faith.

  Tim Haggis shook his head, sat down on the outdoor seat outside the coffee shop, and ordered himself a cup of coffee by the way. This location is less than ten meters away from Xiao Yao. The field of vision is wide. Anyone on the street who is close to Xiao Yao can’t escape his sight. It will not interfere with Xiao Yao, and it will make him feel comfortable. A monitoring location of the site.

  On the other side, Xiao Yao also started playing a pure guitar song "A Beautiful Day" by Depapepe. Fresh and lively, the guitar melody that seemed to have the smell of sunshine immediately attracted the attention of some passersby.

It is true that the Chambers Conservatory of Music is indeed a world-class music school, and has trained many world-class instrument players. Xiao Yao asked himself that the current guitar performance level is probably not as good as the classical guitar performance students in the school. However, the reason why Xiao Yao dared to go to the gate of Chambers Conservatory of Music to "savage wild" is naturally because he has things that others don't. What he relied on was the classic guitar tunes from previous lives in his mind. In terms of performance level alone, Xiao Yao is already very good, even if it is not outstanding in this place, but with those classic guitar pieces that have not appeared in this world, his performance is enough to attract the attention of people in this place. .

DEPAPEPE's "Butterfly", Nakagawa Amuo's "Clarence", Oshio Kotaro's "Dreaming" and "fight", Kishibe Maaki's "Miracle Mountain" and "TimeTravel", Andy McKee's "Rylynn" these previous life guitar songs are used Xiao Yao stood by the side of the road and played them one after another. Later, Xiao Yao even played the previous classics such as Hisaishirang’s "City in the Sky" and Eagles' "Hotel California", which were originally not pure guitar songs. Pure guitar version. After playing ten pieces for more than half an hour, Xiao Yao finally stopped some passersby and gathered a group of listeners around him.

   "Where did the artist come from? The songs he played are so good, and I have never heard them before."

   "Yeah, I don't know who wrote these songs, I want to listen to it several times."

"Anyway, let's be okay. Just stand here and listen for a while. He plays the guitar pretty well. Do you think he will be a student in our school? Let's get to know who wrote these songs. I went online to find it."

   "Idiot, if it is a student of our school, would he stand on the street and perform art? I think he wants to use this method to attract the attention of our school teachers, so that he can enter our school."

   "It's not the time to graduate or to recruit students. I'm afraid it's useless to do this."

  “It’s good to leave an impression first, and wait until enrollment time.”

  "This guitarist is an Asian, handsome and good-looking. The most important thing is that the way he plays the guitar is really cool. How about I wait for him to finish playing and invite him to have a drink?"

   "You are an idiot who can't move when you see a handsome guy."

   "Don't you want to?"

   "Uh... think!"

  Xiao Yao performed for more than half an hour. In addition to a lot of banknotes in the piano box, it also caused a lot of quiet comments from the onlookers. From the tune to the performance, because Xiao Yao is not well-known in the United States, he didn't do any disguise when he came out this time, and he didn't even wear sunglasses, so even his appearance became a topic of discussion among the onlookers. In addition to the discussion, some audience members took out their mobile phones and recorded videos of Xiao Yao who was performing. In the self-media era, whether it is the United States or China, this seems to have become a habit of many young people.

  After finishing the morning class, Sun Tingting met two classmates and friends who had met at school and walked outside the school together.

  As a specialized music school, the number of teachers and students at Chambers Conservatory of Music is not large, and the school occupies a small area. Compared with the average university, not only is there a lot less student clubs, but even the school’s facilities are much less. Therefore, under normal circumstances, students rarely stay in the school except for classes. They usually go to the school and take a stroll outside to solve the problem of eating outside. Only when they have a rest, they will return to the school dormitory. In this art and cultural district, there are many more places to go outside the school than inside the school.

   "Tiana, your boyfriend really doesn't come to America to see you?" asked a black-haired Asian girl holding her arm next to Sun Tingting.

   "Yes, Cici, he is very busy this summer and has no time to come." Although Sun Tingting felt a little disappointed, she didn't show it on her face, just smiled and said to the friend beside her.

"Why can you still laugh?" The brunette white man on the other side of Sun Tingting said nothing for her. "Didn't you say that he is the same age as you, a student who just graduated from high school? It is summer vacation, and he is not. How busy can you be if you don’t have summer vacation like our school? I don’t think he cares about you at all. Why should such a boyfriend come here? There are many boys in our school who like you. You can just get rid of him."

"Gina, he just graduated from high school, but he is not an ordinary high school graduate." Sun Tingting shook his head, "In addition to students, he is also an acting star. He is an actor, music creator, producer, singer and screenwriter. This summer, in addition to participating in TV shows, he has to be a director and shoot short films by himself. It is indeed too busy to have time."

   "Wow, your boyfriend is so great? Why haven't you heard about it before?" The brunette white girl named Gina widened her eyes.

   "Maybe Tiana is afraid that you **** will miss her boyfriend." The black-haired Asian girl named Cici on the side laughed and teased Gina.

"How come? The Chinese boy is not my type at all." Gina rolled her eyes and said, "And even if he does have a lot of jobs, how does his girlfriend say that his work is more important than work? He is still a student, and It's not that he needs to earn money to support the family. I think no matter how busy the work is, I should spare some time to spend time with my girlfriend in the United States. Therefore, I still treat such a boy..." Gina shook her head with her mouth curled.

  The three of them walked and talked, and unknowingly they left the school gate and walked in the direction of the coffee shop they frequented. After class, they all need to drink a cup of coffee, eat a snack, replenish their energy, and relax at the same time.

   "Huh? What are you doing over there? Why are so many people surrounded?" Cici first noticed a group of people gathered on the street not far from the coffee shop.

   "There is music, like the sound of a guitar, there should be a street artist performing." Sun Tingting heard the guitar sound, tilted her head and said to two girlfriends and friends.

"Oh~ come to Chambers’s door to perform an instrumental performance. This is really a good choice." Gina raised her eyebrows, and then said in surprise, "Ah, I saw Tyler, she is a classical guitar professional, even She is standing there listening, the performer should be pretty good."

  While speaking, Gina took Sun Tingting and Cici and walked over, patted a blond girl standing on the periphery, standing at a height of 1.8 meters, and said, "Hi, Taylor! What are you doing here?"

"Hi," the blonde girl turned around, saw Gina and three other classmates she knew, smiled and greeted them, and said to them, "Here is a street performer playing guitar. I stood here and listened. It's been half an hour."

   "Play the guitar? Is your performance level up to you?" Gina looked at Taylor strangely, "Can you stand here and listen for half an hour?"

"He's not necessarily better at guitar performance than me," Taylor laughed, "but he plays very, very good music, which I have never heard before, and he is still a handsome guy with an Asian face. "

   "He? A great song that I haven't heard? An Asian face?" Sun Tingting on the side listened to a movement in her heart, and immediately squeezed into the crowd anxiously.

   "Hey, Tiana, don't be so excited to hear that handsome guy, you have a boyfriend." Gina immediately pulled Cici and squeezed in with Sun Tingting, still joking in her mouth.

When Gina pulled Cici and squeezed to the inside and stood beside Sun Tingting, they found that Sun Tingting was covering her mouth in disbelief, staring at the street performer who was playing the guitar. .

   "Tiana, what's wrong with you?" Cici saw that there was something wrong with Sun Tingting, and gently touched Sun Tingting's arm.

  Sun Tingting still covered her mouth without speaking, but shook her head to signal that she was okay.

Finally, Xiao Yao, who waited until Sun Tingting appeared in front of him, finished a piece that he hadn’t finished playing with a strum, smiled and said for the first time: "I have played a lot of songs for everyone. Now, I will sing for everyone. Song, for someone who is very, very important to me. She is the reason I am here today."

   "Wow, after playing for so long, the handsome Asian guy is about to sing. The guitar songs he plays are so good, I don't know how they sing."

   "Listening to what he means, it seems to be a confession. Didn't he come to the street performers?"

  There were many onlookers who whispered.

   "I can hardly forget the first time I saw you, a pair of charming eyes..." After a lively guitar prelude, Xiao Yao began to sing.

   Xiao Yao, who was carrying a guitar, sang and walked forward. He stood still in front of Sun Tingting, watching her singing with gentle eyes.

  The song sung by Xiao Yao, the tune is from the previous life, Yu Chengqing’s "Love Is Not Already", and the lyrics were changed into the English version by Xiao Yao himself. Although Xiao Yao's English lyrics are not translated word by word based on Chinese lyrics, the meaning and emotions expressed in Chinese lyrics are exactly the same as those of previous lives.

   "Sure enough!" As soon as the street artist's lyrics were sung, the crowd onlookers realized that it was a sweet love song. After watching his movements, everyone seemed to understand it all at once.

At the end of Xiao Yao’s first chorus, when the song entered the interlude part, Sun Tingting, who looked up at Xiao Yao, suddenly stretched out his hands and hugged Xiao Yao’s head. His lips kissed fiercely.

  "Wow~" Seeing such a blast scene, the onlookers who had a foreboding applauded and screamed.

   "This is Tiyana's Chinese boyfriend?" Gina looked at Cici with an incredible face.

   "I don't know what he looks like," Cici spread her hands, "but Tiana has already told us clearly what she is doing now."

   "Didn't Tiana say that he has a lot of work and doesn't have time to come to the United States?" Gina was still a little confused. Just now, she was still worthless for Sun Tingting, and her boyfriend appeared in front of her in a blink of an eye.

   "Obviously, he lied to Tiana." Cici said, "For now, here, give her such a surprise."

"You said that this person is not Tiana’s suitor, but Tiana’s boyfriend. In order to surprise her, he stood here and played the guitar for more than half an hour. He is not a street performer at all. "I don't know when, Taylor also squeezed into the inner circle and stood behind them.

"It should be," Cici nodded. "Tiyana said that her boyfriend is a star of Huaxia, who is also an actor, music creator, singer and other identities. It is impossible for someone to live on the street. Street performer."

"God, it's so romantic. It's so touching to see." Gina folded her hands and looked at God. "I want to take back what I just said. If God gave me such a boyfriend, I won't care if he is. Not a Chinese."

  Remarks: Oshio Kotaro is Oshio-san, DEPAPEPE’s "Good Day" was originally called "いい日だったね" in Japanese. "The original Japanese name of "Butterfly" is "バタフライ". I originally wanted to write the original Japanese name with parentheses to write a Chinese translation, but thinking about it, it seems that there is a mismatch in the number of characters, so I just put it in the remarks. It can make it easier for those who want to listen to the actual music to find it online.
