Since moving into Mingsu Dormitory, Jiang Mu's living conditions have improved significantly.
This is not to say that she had a bad life before. Su Lai would make her self-heating hot pot, and Xia Senyuan was responsible for the hygiene of the dormitory. She didn't have to do much, but after coming here, her life became more comfortable.
Ming Su brought her breakfast so that she could sleep in, and even cancelled the alarm clock. Fu Yan and Chen Xicheng took turns to clean the dormitory, and someone would give her a massage when she was tired. Of course, Jiang Mu didn't want Ming Su to give her a massage.
Although Ming Su's massage technique was surprisingly good, and she didn't know how someone like him could give a massage, after trying it once, Jiang Mu politely declined Ming Su's offer to give her a massage.
Because when Ming Su stood behind her, she would feel very insecure, always feeling like she was going to be swallowed up by the person behind her.
Jiang Mu still visits Su Lai and Xia Senyuan's dormitory every day.
Su Lai was not used to staying in Ning Yulan's dormitory. He looked forward to Jiang Mu coming to see him every day.
Also waiting for Jiang Mu with him was Ning Yulan.
Every night around seven or eight o'clock, the two would stop what they were doing and sit in their chairs, waiting eagerly.
Su Lai acted very obviously, and the other two were joking, saying that he looked like a young wife.
Ning Yu Lan pretended to be thinking, but as long as his face was expressionless, it was impossible to tell what he was thinking. He held a drumstick in his hand and looked straight towards the door.
He didn't speak and no one dared to disturb him.
The other two people in the dormitory had long been accustomed to Ning Yu Lan's serious and silent state. They were very happy about Su Lai's arrival. Although Su Lai stuttered, he was a nice person. His arrival brought Jiang Mu to visit, and the originally dull and boring dormitory 308 suddenly became lively.
You know, the previous dormitory 308 was the most boring of all the dormitories. There was no sound at all every day. The two of them were afraid that Ning Yulan would find it noisy, so they didn't dare to speak loudly. But in fact, they didn't know whether Ning Yulan would find it noisy or not, and they didn't dare to ask anyway.
Jiang Mu ran over with a bag of snacks. She knocked on the door, and it opened by itself. It turned out that it was not closed at all.
They guess they knew she would come at this time.
Jiang Mu pushed the door open and came in. "Susu, I'm here. I brought you some delicious food."
Su Lai stood up quickly, "You... you are here."
Su Lai's attention was all on Jiang Mu, and he didn't care at all what the food was.
Jiang Mu distributed the food to everyone, "Everyone gets a share."
"That's great. Thank you."
"It just so happens that I didn't have enough to eat last night, that's good."
When it was finally Ning Yu Lan's turn, Jiang Mu opened the bag and let Ning Yu Lan choose for himself.
"Look, what do you want to eat?"
Ning Yulan likes sweet things the most. Apart from a bag of marshmallows, the rest of the things in the bag are potato chips, spicy strips, biscuits and the like. But his love for sweets is a secret.
He always ate a little in private so that no one would see him.
This bag of marshmallows is pink from the inside out, and looks very sweet.
Ning Yulan's gaze stayed on the marshmallow for three seconds. After hesitating, he reached out for a bag of potato chips.
Ning Yu Lan, holding potato chips, looked at Jiang Mu, only to see her smiling at him thoughtfully.
But Jiang Mu didn't say anything. He turned around and talked to Su Lai, asking him if he had gone to the training room.
Su Lai nodded, "I went there in the afternoon and came back after dinner."
Jiang Mu: "I haven't been to the training room today. I'm going over now. They are waiting for me. I said I would come over to bring you some snacks first."
Su Lai was disappointed to see Jiang Mu leaving after only a few minutes, but he had no reason to stop Jiang Mu from going to training, so he nodded and said, "Well, then...then you should go...go ahead."
Jiang Mu: "Okay, I'll come see you next time."
Before leaving, Jiang Mu took out the remaining marshmallows in the bag and placed them on Ning Yulan's desk.
"I bought too much of this. I'll give it to you. You're welcome."
After she finished speaking, she winked at Ning Yulan.
Ning Yulan whispered, "I don't like this."
"Just help me solve it, please."
Jiang Mu ran away after saying this.
Ning Yulan picked up the bag of marshmallows and stared at it for a while without saying anything. When his teammates saw him, they thought he didn't want to eat it and felt embarrassed, so they walked over and said, "Captain, you don't want to eat it? Then I'll eat it. I like marshmallows."
Ning Yulan frowned.
The teammates reached out to take it, but Ning Yulan refused to let go.
"Huh?" The teammate exerted a little force, but he didn't expect Ning Yulan to exert more force than him.
Ning Yulan pulled the marshmallow back and said, "I'll eat it."
He tore open the bag, revealing individually wrapped pink strawberry marshmallows.
The teammate was about to reach out and grab one, but just as his hand was about to touch the marshmallow on the table, Ning Yulan looked back at him.
That look made the teammate retract his hand and put it behind his back awkwardly, "I'd rather not eat it."
Ning Yu Lan then withdrew his gaze, took a marshmallow, opened the package, slowly put it to his mouth, took a bite, and swallowed the soft marshmallow into his mouth.
The sweetness instantly spread between his lips and teeth. It was his favorite sweetness.
But he usually prefers to buy chocolate flavor and rarely eats strawberry flavor.
Ning Yu Lan closed his eyes and felt the marshmallow melting in his mouth. He thought to himself: It turns out that strawberry-flavored marshmallows are so delicious.
It tasted a hundred times better than he had imagined.
…..
Ning Yu Lan suddenly stood up, took two marshmallows and put them in his pocket, then put the rest away.
He walked out with his drumsticks.
"Captain, where are you going?"
Ning Yulan: "I'm going to the training room."
"Now?"
Ning Yulan nodded, "Yes."
After Ning Yulan left, the teammate who wanted to eat marshmallows just now said: "Why do I feel that the captain is weird?"
Another person nodded in agreement: "You are not alone, I think so too."
Su Lai didn't know what Ning Yu Lan was like before, so he didn't express his opinion.
"Strange, you said the captain has gone to training, should we go too?"
"Ah? Let's not go. I've been practicing all afternoon. I'm so tired and want to take a break. Let's go tomorrow."
"Oh well."
Su Lai originally wanted to go because Jiang Mu was there, but Jiang Mu was training with others, and if he went, Jiang Mu might not be able to take care of him. Now they are no longer in the same team, and he can't disturb Jiang Mu. If he goes, he will have to be alone in another training room.
He picked up the drumsticks, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't stand up.
…..
Ning Yulan went to the training building. His purpose of coming there was not entirely for training, but also because he wanted to see Jiang Mu on a whim.
Although Jiang Mu had just left, he couldn't calm down after eating the marshmallow, and his mind was full of Jiang Mu's figure.
Jiang Mu's every smile and even her voice lingered in his heart. Ning Yu Lan felt that he was poisoned and wanted to find Jiang Mu as the antidote.
At this time, in the training room at the end of the third floor, Jiang Mu was learning to play the bass.
Ming Su said he would teach her. Jiang Mu had always been interested in bass, but among so many musicians, there were only a few who could play bass, and there were only a few who were good at it, and she had little contact with any of them.
Now that she has become teammates with the best bassist, Jiang Mu will certainly not miss this opportunity.
The two of them were playing bass nearby, while Chen Xicheng and Fu Yan were practicing their own instruments.
The next stage assessment will test personal ability. They have to show off their unique skills before that and practice diligently.
Jiang Mu is going to challenge three instruments alone in this solo show.
For Jiang Mu, every time she performs on stage, she must make progress and bring surprises to everyone. These are her abilities and her confidence. Even if her identity is exposed, she can tell the world that she is not here to play and no one can look down on her.
At least she has been speaking with strength.
She has already decided on three instruments: piano, guitar and violin.
She has also thought about what song to play at that time.
Ming Su asked Jiang Mu to try playing the bass. Jiang Mu was extremely talented in music. Although she had only learned the basics, she played quite well.
Ming Su rarely showed a surprised expression. He took out a music player, plugged in earphones, played a song, put the earphones into Jiang Mu's ears, and put the other earphone on himself.
The sound of music drifted out, and Jiang Mu was quickly attracted by the music and listened quietly.
Ming Su stood behind her. Because the headphone cord was not long enough, if they wanted to listen together, Ming Su had to bend down slightly. He bent over with his body forward, and his face was almost touching Jiang Mu's.
Moreover, he placed his hand on Jiang Mu's hand and guided her to play the bass. From a distance, it looked like he was holding Jiang Mu with one hand, and their actions were very intimate.
Ning Yulan was standing outside the door and this was the scene he saw.
Ming Su leaned close to Jiang Mu's ear and ask, "Does it sound good?"
Jiang Mu nodded and looked back at him, "It sounds good."
Ming Su: "Then play this piece of music."
Jiang Mu: "Well, okay, I'll try it."
Ming Su let her go and asked her to play the bass well, but his eyes were full of doting.
Ning Yu Lan felt very uncomfortable. If there was a mirror, he felt that his expression at the moment was ugly.
Because he tasted jealousy and madness.
He couldn't stand Jiang Mu and Ming Su being so close. Maybe he had thought before that Jiang Mu might have a better relationship with Ming Su if he joined Ming Su's team, but when he saw this scene with his own eyes, his mood was a hundred times worse than he had imagined.
This also made him feel seriously frustrated.
This was a huge blow to him, who had always been pure, proud and careful.
He wanted to know what Jiang Mu was thinking.
Did Jiang Mu realize Ming Su's liking for her?
Does she know that he likes her?
…..
Jiang Mu played a section of the song she had just heard, without making any mistakes.
Ming Su was even more surprised. He didn't know that Jiang Mu had absolute pitch. It was amazing that he could play it correctly after listening to it once. It was definitely not something that ordinary people could do.
Facing Ming Su's fiery gaze, Jiang Mu lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly and whispered, "What are you doing? Did I play it wrong?"
Ming Su: "No, you play very well, and you're almost catching up with me."
Jiang Mu: "This shows that you are a good teacher."
Ming Su stroked Jiang Mu's hair and said, "Okay, go practice something else. The assessment will be in a few days."
Jiang Mu nodded and returned the bass to Ming Su, seeming to be not opposed to Ming Su's action.
…..
Ning Yulan had a sleepless night and couldn't fall asleep.
He had been thinking about how to face this relationship. He had no experience and didn't know how to deal with it. He had originally planned to wait until the end of the game before confessing his feelings to Jiang Mu, but everything he saw today made him change his mind.
He couldn't wait until then.
It was obvious that he was the first one to like Jiang Mu, and he was also the first one to discover that Jiang Mu was a girl.
How could he let Ming Su take Jiang Mu away?
Ning Yu Lan was almost going crazy. The image of Ming Su hugging Jiang Mu kept flashing in his mind. He could see it with his eyes closed and he could also see it with his eyes open.
The next morning, Ning Yu Lan sat up, was stunned for a while, and finally made a decision.
He wanted to go and talk things out with Jiang Mu.
Go right away.
But when Ning Yu Lan got up to wash his face and saw himself in the mirror, he was shocked.
He looked very bad after not sleeping for a night.
His eyes were dull, with dark circles under them, and his hair was messy. He guess it was because he tossed and turned all night.
He immediately gave up the idea of going to find Jiang Mu.
He couldn't let Jiang Mu see him like this.
Ning Yu Lan washed his face and forced himself to sleep for a while. He woke up at noon, carefully fixed his hair, changed his clothes, and went to find Jiang Mu without even eating.
As a result, Jiang Mu was not there, as she went to film "Band Balala Party". This episode invited Jiang Mu and several other people, but Ning Yulan was not among them.
Ning Yulan's attempt was in vain, and his mood fell into depression again.
He had been waiting for them in the dormitory, and in the evening, Jiang Mu came to visit.
Jiang Mu talked to Su Lai for a while, stayed for about ten minutes, and then prepared to leave.
As soon as she left, Ning Yulan followed her out.
Jiang Mu saw Ning Yulan following her out and asked in confusion, "Are you going out?"
She just felt that there was something wrong with Ning Yu Lan.
Ning Yulan shook his head, looked at her with sharp eyes, and said in a serious tone: "I have something to tell you."
"Ah? What's the matter? Why didn't you say anything just now?"
Ning Yu Lan thought about it, took two steps forward, reached out and grabbed her wrist, and walked forward quickly.
Jiang Mu hurriedly asked: "Where are you taking me?"
Ning Yu Lan looked back at her, the emotion in his eyes was passionate and genuine. Jiang Mu was stunned and was passively pulled away by him.
Ming Su waited in the dormitory for a while, but Jiang Mu didn't come back, so he asked Chen Xicheng to call Jiang Mu.
They were all waiting for Jiang Mu to go to the training room together.
As a result, when Chen Xicheng went out, he happened to see Ning Yulan pulling Jiang Mu downstairs.
…..
Ning Yulan pulled Jiang Mu to the back of the dormitory building. The street lighting here was not good, it was a bit dark around, and no one passed by.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Jiang Mu guessed a little, but she was not sure.
Logically, Ning Yulan shouldn't be such an impulsive person. What happened to make him change so drastically?
Jiang Mu was guessing secretly, but Ning Yu Lan suddenly hugged her.
Jiang Mu was startled, "Ning Yulan, what's wrong with you?"
Ning Yulan: "Jiang Mu."
When Jiang Mu heard him calling her real name, she felt touched.
She's been called Jiang Chen for so many days, and she haven't heard this name for a long time.
"What's wrong? Tell me."
"I like you." Ning Yu Lan said slowly, enunciating each word.
After saying these words, he felt as if all the worries that had been pent up for a long time had been cleared out, and he felt relieved all of a sudden.
"I... I don't know when it started, but I've liked you. I like your talent, your pride, the way you shine on the stage, and the way you smile so flamboyantly and charmingly."
Ning Yulan's voice was gentler than ever before, but one could hear that it was trembling.
Jiang Mu looked at him in a daze. Ning Yu Lan slowly lowered her head and approached her slowly. When she was about to kiss her, Jiang Mu suddenly pushed him away.
"Ning Yulan, don't be like this."
Ning Yulan has never confessed her feelings, and of course has never been rejected.
This was his first love, and also the first time he took the initiative to kiss a girl.
Jiang Mu's rejection was hard for him to accept for a while.
After a long time, he said, "You like Ming Su, right?"
"Who told you that I like Ming Su?" Jiang Mu glared at him.
"If you don't like him, why are you so close to him?"
"Where's the intimacy?"
Jiang Mu did feel a little guilty about what she said. If she thought about it carefully, it seemed like they were quite intimate, but Jiang Mu still spoke with a firm tone and full of confidence.
"I saw it all."
"Then you saw it wrong." Jiang Mu didn't know what he saw. In short, she and Ming Su didn't kiss or do anything out of line.
Ning Yulan frowned, held her hand, and asked nervously: "Do you like me?"
Before Jiang Mu could answer, he heard Ming Su's voice behind him.
"She doesn't like you. We are going to go to training. Please let her go."
