Hmm...who is calling me? Why is this bed a bit cold? It's really a bit cold if it's not a velvet quilt...
"Jessica, wake up, this is the hall! Others will see you!"
Is this Jiang Yan's voice? Why is he in my room? What on earth is——
"Connor is here!"
Jessica jumped up from the sofa, and within three seconds she completed the entire action of opening her eyes, arranging her clothes, and standing in. "Hello, instructor—hey, Jiang Yan?"
Jiang Yan, who was squatting next to the sofa, suppressed his laughter and didn't make a sound, but the raised corners of his mouth and smiling eyes still made him look a little rude. "Pfft, actually, Connor didn't come... I'm sorry." He looked at Jesse.
Ka looked a little confused. Jiang Yan waved his hand and explained, "When I came back, I saw you sleeping on the sofa and couldn't wake you up no matter how much I screamed. I was wondering if I could wake you up like this, but I didn't expect it would actually work."
"I, did I fall asleep?" Jessica shook her head, now she was quite awake. Looking back, it seemed that she was slowly losing consciousness on the sofa. It was a mistake. She should have set an alarm clock, but she actually let her
My teammates saw how embarrassed I was...
Seeing that Jessica had sobered up a lot, Jiang Hao asked, "You haven't gone to the cafeteria, right? I didn't see you - haven't you eaten yet?" Seeing Jessica nodding, Jiang Hao sighed softly.
He took a breath and said, "I understand. Sometimes you are so tired that you don't want to eat. You will feel better if you rest for a while."
He looked into Jessica's eyes and asked seriously:
"Jessica, do you know what day it is today?"
"Huh?" Jessica was stunned, "Today shouldn't be a very special day, right? Although the weather is not bad, after all, it rarely gets sunny in Victoria. Is it some kind of anniversary?"
"It's said to be an anniversary... but it's almost the same." Jiang Yan scratched his head, turned on his phone and entered something. After confirming, he put the phone away and stood up. "There's nothing left in the cafeteria now, wait until you want to eat.
Eat some Christmas bread made for Christmas. Oh, and remember not to eat too much, after all..."
"Well," Jiang Yan paused and said, "After all, it's a little late now. Eating at night will make you gain weight easily."
Jessica was a little confused: usually only Ai'er would care about these weight loss topics, but Jiang Shao implemented the principle of "if you want to eat, if you want to drink, don't take anything to heart", he would basically find a way to eat when he was hungry.
She asked for something. But she still nodded. Her mood still hadn't recovered and she didn't really want to eat.
Looking at Jessica who was looking downcast, Jiang Yan hesitated for a while but still didn't speak. He walked to the piano, adjusted the piano bench to the appropriate height, and opened the piano cover.
"Jessica, can you dance?"
"Maybe I know a lot, why do you ask this?"
"No, it's nothing."
Jiang Hao softly hummed a melody and tentatively tapped the keys with his fingers - it was a very elegant piece of music that also revealed some naughty elements. After tentatively playing it, he turned around and smiled.
Asking Jessica, "Can you come over here and help me turn on the tape recorder on the shelf, Laddy?"
Jessica walked to the piano with gentle cat steps, and turned on the tape recorder that had just arrived two days ago and was bought by her friends. In this era, the role of the tape recorder does not seem to be that important, but in this way
Period pieces always add a touch of ambience to a room.
It reminded her of her home.
As the disk began to rotate, Jiang Yan left a few seconds blank, then tapped three beats with his foot, and began to play.
The simple and bright melody is almost like a children's song, but it has a classical flavor - it is like a tango, but there are not so many twists and turns in the melody, only the iconic "thump thump, thump thump"
You can also hear the feeling of tango in the rhythm.
The two melodies kept intertwining, and Jessica's steps began to become rhythmic. Until after recording a disk, Jiang Yan concluded the entire song.
What a simple and beautiful song - Jessica was about to say this when Jiang Yan stood up, cleaned up the things in the room, and cleared a space. Then, he put the disk back in place and pressed the play button.
Jiang Yan came to Jessica, bent down slightly, and stretched out his hand, with a hint of youthfulness in his movements and tone:
"Shall we dance?"
Jessica covered her mouth, and for the first time today, a smile appeared on her face. "My pleasure, Sir."
Jiang Yan took Jessica's hand and came to the center of the room. At this time, the blank space left by his recording was just about to be played. He took steps - obviously the steps of a beginner - and began to dance. Jessica was light and easy.
to keep up with his dance steps.
Jessica is as petite as a cat, especially compared with the gay men in the team: even Nate is taller than her. Jiang Yan's singing can reach her ears directly.
It was like whispering into her ears, his breath stirring the ends of her hair and the tips of her ears.
"君は かわいい ぼくの黑ネコ(You are so adorable, my lovely black cat)
"Red Ribbon よくにあうよ(The red ribbon matches you very well)"
"だけど时々 つめを出して(But sometimes you show your claws)
"ぼくの心をなやませる(Let my heart be filled with troubles)
"Black Cat's Tango Tango Tango"
"My lover is a black cat"
"Black Cat's Tango Tango Tango"
"ネコの目のように気まぐれよ(like a cat's eyes, moody)..."
The foreign language completed the rest of the song. Jiang Yan hummed softly like this children's song, and did not see Jessica's deeply buried blushing face.
"...Jiang Yan, this song..."
"Well, what's wrong?" Jiang Yan said with a smile, "This is a song that I, um, remembered recently. Do you like it?"
"It's not a question of whether you like it or not! This song..." The lyrics of this song are so embarrassing! Jessica really couldn't say these words. Jiang Yan's warm hands wrapped around her waist, like this
Under the circumstances, I really couldn’t express my opinion properly - he would see my face...
Jiang Shao didn't speak again. The two of them just rotated slowly, thinking about something in their hearts. Until the whole song was played, Jessica gently pushed Jiang Shao away.
"...I'm sorry." Jiang Yan apologized to Jessica who lowered her head, "I thought you would like this song." What was the expression on his face? Was it loss? Or...
"No, I'm just...sorry." Jessica put her hands behind her back and tangled her fingers together. "This song is..."
"It's for you." Jiang Yan's sudden answer startled Jessica again. "I know you've been blaming yourself lately and you're a little out of shape. But I hope you can be happy today and don't think about those messy things.
Things. If the mission does not go smoothly, we will slow down..."
Jiang Yan suddenly pulled Jessica excitedly, "Yeah, slow down! We can use smoke bombs as cover! I know how to break through this training mission!"
"Uh, what do you mean?"
"We can use smoke bombs to cover the high platform, so..."
"No, no, no, I mean this song was...given to me?" Jessica's mind stopped spinning again, "What on earth is..."
Jiang Yan scratched his face, "We originally planned to cook you some barbecue in the cafeteria, but you didn't come, so I came back to call you. I just called Hank and the others back, and we planned to cook it for you here.
A dinner.”
"Jessica, happy birthday."
PS: Original song "Black Cat Tango"
All the contents of this volume are over. Thank you for reading. I recommend two songs at the end: "Dirty Deeds Do Z75 Pigeon" sang by Iron Arm at the end, which is very similar to the temperament of Jiang Yan's private law enforcer in this volume. The other song
It’s the opening theme song of “COP CRAFT” called “Rakuen City” that matches the mood of this volume very well.
I hope you can leave good memories of this volume in the music, and move on to the next volume!
