Chapter 370 The feeling of being protected by Cheng Yajie
Li Yi has always felt that girls should be more reserved and not fight and kill all day long.
As a result, Cheng Yajie, a girl, did the opposite and used her fists to solve problems that didn't go her way.
"Ajie, you make me feel uncomfortable like this. We need to talk things over calmly." Li Yi started talking to Cheng Yajie like a teacher again.
At this time, Cheng Yajie's hand crackled a few times. She looked at Li Yi with a smile: "Okay, how can you be so calm?"
"Drive, drive." Li Yi started the car's engine and drove quickly towards the western restaurant.
Cheng Yajie was speechless. Every time she ate, this guy would always go to that western restaurant.
She once asked if Li Yi liked that restaurant's staple food.
But what came back was this answer: "Actually, it's not very delicious, I just got used to it."
After eating Western food, the two arrived at the opera house on time.
Hangzhou Opera House is not in the city center, so it took Li Yi more than 20 minutes to drive there.
He disguised himself in the car and walked out of the car when he was ready.
Li Yi asked Cheng Yajie on the side: "What musical are you watching tonight?"
Cheng Yajie frowned and asked, "Didn't you read the message I sent you?"
"Look, look, I... just forgot, look at me, this young man's dementia has struck again." Li Yi pretended to hold his forehead.
Cheng Yajie rolled her eyes at him and then explained: "The musical we are watching tonight is called "Carmen"."
When Li Yi heard the name, he thought for a moment: "Is there any connection between this musical and "Canon"?"
"Um...probably not."
In fact, Cheng Yajie only has half a bucket of knowledge about musicals and does not have an in-depth understanding.
But she knew about the musical before.
This drama mainly portrays a beautiful but stubborn Gypsy girl - Carmen, a female cigarette factory worker.
She made the soldier squad leader Don Hauser fall in love and abandoned his lover in the countryside - the gentle and kind-hearted Micaela.
Later, Don Houser was arrested and imprisoned for letting her go after fighting with the female workers. After being released from prison, he joined the ranks of her smugglers.
However, Carmen later fell in love with the bullfighter Escamilio. When people cheered for Escamilio's victory in the bullfight, she died under the dagger of Don Hauser.
The protagonists of this drama are female workers, farmers and soldiers, which is rare and valuable in opera works of that era.
There are more than ten choruses of various genres and styles in the play.
When Cheng Yajie told Li Yi these words one by one, she found that this guy seemed to be sleepwalking.
"Hey, are you listening?"
Cheng Yajie poked his arm.
Li Yi nodded hurriedly: "Listen, listen."
"You just said that it is a stage play with a strong "realism" style, right? Through several vivid characters and surging emotions, it still has a very profound depiction of human nature."
Li Yi repeated it calmly.
Cheng Yajie was a little surprised, how could this guy memorize it word for word?
She felt somewhat comforted, thinking that Li Yi had carefully written down everything she said.
They immediately entered the opera house.
After a while, the staff of the opera house moved the introduction column next to the door, and the content above was what Li Yi just said...
The Hangzhou Opera House is large in scale and has exquisite colonnades. Under the light of the hall lights at the entrance, it looks like an oil painting with marble and gold ornaments complementing each other.
Just as Li Yi and Cheng Yajie were looking for seats, they found that there were quite a lot of people coming tonight.
At a glance, the entire auditorium is full of human heads.
At this moment, Li Yi was thinking if he had a 98k...
Don't dare to think, don't dare to think.
This is illegal and inconsistent with core values.
Li Yi and Cheng Yajie sat down and waited for the opera to begin.
Not long after, a man and a woman came into Li Yi's sight.
The man is about forty years old, has a big belly, and even looks like a nouveau riche.
An oily head looks extra dazzling under the light.
The woman next to him is very young, so young that she is even one or two years younger than Cheng Yajie.
But the sense of maturity in her dressing up is definitely the best in the show.
A small black dress came into view, and it was just the exposed shoulders that made people unable to stop looking at it.
Because Li Yi was wearing sunglasses, even if he glanced at the girl twice, no one noticed.
Cheng Yajie on the side was still introducing him to the introduction of the drama.
But at this moment, the fat man looked back at Li Yi behind him, and then joked: "Why are all the blind people coming to watch musicals now?"
The woman next to me was amused. She frowned and scolded: "How can you talk about others casually? People who are blind are also very pitiful."
Her charming eyes made the fat man feel distressed for a moment.
The fat man nodded immediately and said with a pout: "Okay, okay, honey, I don't say anything casually, come and give me a kiss."
Cheng Yajie suddenly became angry when she heard the two people in front of her making sarcastic comments.
She had just gotten ready to seek an explanation for Li Yi.
Unexpectedly, Li Yi took her hand and shook his head.
Cheng Yajie didn't understand, so she asked: "He was talking about you just now?!"
"I know, there is no need to argue with these people." Li Yi advised.
Cheng Yajie frowned, looked at Li Yi in front of her, touched his forehead, and said, "I don't have a fever either. Normally, you are a person who must avenge your enemies!"
"Today is my first time to watch a musical. We must enjoy this wonderful time and not be disturbed by these villains." Li Yi said calmly.
After hearing this, Cheng Yajie felt that what Li Yi said was very reasonable, so she stopped troubling the fat man.
It's just that she couldn't bear to watch the couple in front of her, cuddling and having intimate contact.
Since the opera hadn't started yet, Cheng Yajie simply took out her mobile phone, clicked on the backgammon game, and said to Li Yi: "Come, let's play backgammon."
Li Yi glanced at it and said, "I don't think you can beat me."
"Hey, you said you can't play even before you play. Do you think you are great? Are you Ke Jie?" Cheng Yajie rolled her eyes and snorted.
"Ke Jie is just playing Go. He may not be good at backgammon. Why don't we make a bet?" Li Yi said with a smile.
When Cheng Yajie heard this, she remembered the previous bet between her and Li Yi. She lost every time.
She couldn't believe that she was still carrying it like this this time!
"Just bet!" Cheng Yajie said, "What to bet on?"
Li Yi thought for a while, "I asked you to massage my whole body before, and I feel relieved physically, but I always feel like something is missing mentally."
"What's missing?" Cheng Yajie asked.
"Pleasure!"
Li Yi thought of the most appropriate word.
When Cheng Yajie heard this, she blushed: "You are sick!"
Li Yi was scolded for no reason and wondered: "What did I say about pleasure?"
Cheng Yajie's face turned red to the root of her neck. She felt that Li Yi was playing hooligan!
"How about this, if I win, you go to the boxing gym with me and box with me all afternoon. I can only fight and you can only defend. If I lose... what do you want?
The ground is what it is.”
After listening to what Li Yi said, Cheng Yajie realized that this was the pleasure he was talking about?
She thought... she thought...
Thinking of this, Cheng Yajie suddenly felt that her thoughts had drifted a little.
Cheng Yajie nodded and agreed: "Okay, it's up to you!"
While pressing start, she said confidently: "I've been playing backgammon for so many years, and I've never met an opponent. Let me tell you!"
Two minutes later, Cheng Yajie was dumbfounded when she saw five black spots in a row.
She didn't expect that she would be defeated so quickly!
Li Yi snickered from the side and said: "Sometimes, we can't belittle ourselves, but we can't be blindly confident either. We must be modest and modest."
He looked at Cheng Yajie who was speechless and said happily: "Isn't it fun?"
"Play! I don't believe it." Cheng Yajie decided to deal with it with all her energy.
Two minutes later, she collapsed again.
Because five more connected sunspots appeared on the phone screen.
"No, no, come again." Cheng Yajie refused to admit defeat. She always felt that as long as she did not admit defeat, she would not lose.
Li Yi put away her phone, "This Ah Q spirit is worth encouraging, but sometimes you have to understand that the gap cannot be made up in a day or two."
Cheng Yajie: "..."
In the end, the two stopped playing because the opera was about to start.
The overture of the opera is in A major, in 42 time, in rondo form. Li Yi felt that it was very beautiful when he listened to this music.
In fact, opera is not difficult to understand. Simply put, it is a drama that mainly uses singing and music to explain and express the plot.
At the beginning of the play, a group of female workers and farmers-turned-soldiers appeared on the stage.
When the soldiers arriving for the shift in the first act, a group of children imitated the steps of the soldiers to clear the way.
Cheng Yajie listened to the beautiful music and couldn't help but ask: "Do you know what song this is?"
If it were Li Yi a year ago, of course he wouldn't be able to guess it.
But over the past year, he has been supplementing his knowledge of music in this area. Although he is not as good as a professional singer, he can still hear the children singing the flute and drum in 2/4 time and the rhythm of D minor.
Li Yi immediately replied: "They sang "We Are Together with the Soldiers"."
After hearing this, Cheng Yajie nodded: "Oh."
Unexpectedly, this sentence was heard by the fat man in front.
He said cheerfully: "I didn't expect that this blind man's hearing is quite good. He can hear it like this."
Li Yi didn't want to ruin the atmosphere tonight. After all, he was an elegant person anyway.
But he couldn't bear the man in front of him.
But just when he was about to "spit the fragrance", he saw Cheng Yajie stand up, come behind the fat man, clenched her hands, cracked her finger joints, and then said viciously: "If you don't want to do it after the opera is over,
If your head is blown, then shut up!"
The fat man was frightened when he saw this posture. He hesitated: "I, I was just joking, sorry, sorry."
After seeing the fat man cower for a second, Cheng Yajie returned to her seat, and then said with a smile: "Where did you just say it?"
Li Yi's heart thumped, thinking that this has become too fast?
But once he said it, he suddenly felt that the feeling of being protected by a woman... was quite refreshing!
