After Christmas, New Year's Day is also approaching.
The party is on the evening of December 30th. Taking advantage of the last few days, Su Wan and Xu Chengyang's group have been rehearsing their Quartet without a break.
Time flies, and it's now December 29th, the day before the party. The four of them had agreed to meet at the Piano Room at ten in the morning as usual. However, a small accident occurred—
"What?? You're in the hospital??" Xu Chengyang exclaimed in shock, gripping her phone tightly.
"So how are you doing now? Are you feeling better?"
"As long as you're okay, that's all that matters. I'll handle the party arrangements; you just focus on resting..."
"Oh, it's fine, it's fine. I'll find someone else last minute. If it really doesn't work out, we can do a trio... Just take it easy!"
...
After hanging up the phone, Xu Chengyang slumped onto the piano bench like a deflated balloon, leaning back against the keys and letting out a heavy sigh: "Amin can't make it..."
Su Wan paused while tuning the piano: "What happened?"
Xu Chengyang replied, "She twisted her ankle yesterday. It's not too serious, but the doctor advised her not to get out of bed for these two days..."
Bridge asked, "…So what do we do now?"
Xu Chengyang was almost in tears: "Where am I supposed to find a violist right now…"
Bridge shrugged: "The rest of us who play viola already have commitments."
Su Wan thought for a moment and said, "How about I ask Miss Fu for help?"
Xu Chengyang immediately lifted her head: "Who?"
Su Wan replied, "Miss Fu's husband plays viola."
Xu Chengyang: "Then hurry up and ask..."
Twenty minutes later, Fu Weijin sent over a WeChat contact card and added, "Jin: Ivan said it's fine. He happens to be free tomorrow evening. He said he would join you for lunch, so add him on WeChat for convenience."
Su Wan replied with a "Thank you" and promptly added him on WeChat.
Moments later, a message popped up indicating that the friend request was accepted, and Ye Yinhua sent her a private message—
Ivan: What piece?
Swan: Mozart, G Major String Serenade.
Ivan: I'll go get the violin. I'll be there in about half an hour.
Swan: Thank you, Mr. Ye.
Ivan: We're family sooner or later, no need to be polite.
Su Wan felt her face heat up slightly upon reading the last message. Embarrassed, she locked her screen and put her phone away. Xu Chengyang returned from the restroom, hurriedly running up to her, anxious and stamping his feet: "How is it? How is it?"
Su Wan: "Um, Mr. Ye said he would arrive in half an hour."
Xu Chengyang was overjoyed to the point of tears: "Guan Guan, I almost don't want you to get married. Without you, what will I do!"
Su Wan: "..."
When did she say she was getting married...
Twenty minutes later, Ye Yinhua drove a black Land Rover into the parking lot of Yan University. Su Wan and Xu Chengyang went to the parking lot to greet him as a gesture of gratitude.
When Ye Yinhua got out of the Land Rover carrying an older violin case, Xu Chengyang's eyes nearly popped out. Ye Yinhua was wearing a black duffle coat with a light gray round-neck sweater underneath, complemented by a dark plaid shirt. He wore black jeans and white casual shoes, looking warm and refined.
Xu Chengyang was a complete face-control. At that moment, seeing such a handsome guy, he immediately approached with a smile and said, "Hello, Mr. Ye, thank you so much."
Su Wan smiled and greeted, "Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Ye."
Ye Yinhua nodded slightly and smiled, "It's nothing, just a small matter. Let's go to the Piano Room."
Xu Chengyang cheerfully responded and gestured for him to lead the way. Ye Yinhua said nothing more and walked towards the direction Xu Chengyang pointed.
Watching Ye Yinhua's tall and elegant figure, Xu Chengyang whispered in Su Wan's ear, "Guan Guan, you're so lucky! Jiang Lawyer, Mr. Ye, plus your husband—it's all a bunch of handsome guys!"
Su Wan felt a bit shy at being called "your husband," her face slightly flushed as she softly replied, "It's not that great..."
Xu Chengyang continued to ramble, "Mr. Ye has Miss Fu, Deity has you, I wonder if Jiang Lawyer is still single..."
Suddenly, Su Wan recalled the first time she met Jiang Zhi Yan at the convenience store and accidentally caught a glimpse of his ID photo in his wallet. It must be someone very important to him since he kept it there. So Su Wan reluctantly said, "Although I don't know if Jiang Zhi Yan has a girlfriend, he should have someone special in his heart..."
Xu Chengyang helplessly held his head and cried out, "Why doesn't heaven bless me with handsome men!"
Su Wan reflected on the boyfriends Xu Chengyang had dated over the years and bluntly pointed out, "You’ve already been blessed with plenty of handsome men during these four years of college."
Xu Chengyang exclaimed, "...Shit!"
