Chapter 90

After finishing the main course, Yin Xi can't wait to say to Xiao Yao, "OK, you can play the piano. You can have dessert when you come back."

Xiao Yao glances at Yin Xi helplessly, wipes his mouth, gets up and walks towards the stage.

Different from three years ago, because Betty had already said hello, when Xiao Yao came to the stage, the pianist who was playing on the stage saw him approaching, and he had already stood up in advance and given up his position. Xiao Yao didn't need to communicate with her any more.

Nodding to thank the pianist, Xiao Yao sat down on the piano stool, stretched out his hands to move his fingers, and then pressed his hands on the keys.

Kevin Kern is one of Xiao Yao's favorite pianists and composers. In his previous life, he was once known as a "background music" professional. Countless radio and television stations will take his piano music as background music, especially in the early morning and evening programs. The quiet and beautiful notes can easily make people forget their boredom.

Xiao Yao collected Cohen's first and famous album "in changed garden" in his previous life. Until he inexplicably across before, this album has been his back and forth to listen to almost ten years. In countless depressed moments or lazy afternoons, he would turn out Cohen's album, immerse himself in a peaceful atmosphere, relieve boredom or enjoy leisure, so he was familiar with the ten songs in the album.

In Xiao Yao's impression, "sunny dreams" is one of the most widely spread songs in "in changed garden". It is also one of the most popular songs by radio and TV stations as good morning and good night. It is also the most familiar song in Xiao Yao's previous life and the most practiced one in this life. Ye Jiaying was awakened by the sound of the piano on the first morning when she lived in Xiao's home. When she first heard Xiao Yao play the piano, it was this song that Xiao Yao was practicing.

After slightly adjusting the breathing rhythm, Xiao Yao pressed his fingers on the piano keys and played the song "sunny dreams" by Kevin Cohen. As soon as the beautiful and pure piano sound comes out, it immediately gives people a clear and elegant feeling. When several concise high notes in the main melody are knocked down, it seems that people can hear the sound of raindrops knocking on the glass window. With beautiful chords, people are immersed in a peaceful and quiet atmosphere, and people's actions in the restaurant are also slighted.

A golden haired young man in his thirties pushed the door in. He was stunned to see that the restaurant was much quieter than usual. Then the sound of the piano made him turn his eyes to the piano on the stage. Seeing that the pianist who was supposed to play on the stage was standing on the side of the stage while a young boy with black hair and yellow skin was playing on the piano stool, the middle-aged man went straight to the bar of the restaurant suspiciously and waved to the waiter on duty...

Betty Bailette, Qin Qingyang and Yin Xi all looked at Xiao on the stage with a smile Far away. Betty took out her mobile phone and operated it. After pointing the camera of her mobile phone at Xiao Yao, she was immersed in Xiao Yao's music like Qin Qingyang and Yin Xi. Betty Bailette also has some surprises in her expression. As the wife of a first-class musician, Betty's music appreciation ability is not low.

She did not expect Xiao Yao to play the piano, which is neither classical nor popular, but a new age with a short history. At least in the United States, children rarely learn piano from newage. The melody of news music is very different from that of classical music and pop music. It has no fixed mode, no fixed form, no transition, no expansion and contrast. The melody is like the wind flowing. It doesn't know when it will start or when it will end. It is always very erratic and has a strong flavor of improvisation.

Xiao Yao's age can control this kind of music form of piano music, even in the more developed music in the United States is rare. Moreover, the song he played is so beautiful, but it seems that she has never heard of it.

At the end of the song, the people who enjoyed it in the restaurant naturally gave a round of applause. Xiao Yao got up and bowed slightly, then stepped down and returned to his seat.

"What's the name of the song you just played?" Betty put away her cell phone and asked Xiao Yao who sat down.

"Sundial realms." Xiao Yao nodded and replied.

"Good name. And you're great. " Betty said with a smile. The name of his husband's band is daydream, both of which have the meaning of daydream, but his husband's band plays pop rock, which is far from the style of this song.

"Thank you." Xiao Yao is very kind.

"Was that the same song you played for Ye Jiaying?" Yin Xi asks curiously.

"No Xiao Yao shook his head. "What he played at that time was" memories of childhood. ". But it was also in this kind of environment at that time, so it was also a more gentle and soothing song. "

"I remember you said that the manager of the restaurant gave you free desserts after playing," Yin Xi said with a smile. "If no one in the restaurant came to give us something later, it means that you have lived for nothing in the past three years. No, you have lived back. You can't play the piano as well as three years ago."Xiao Yao smiles bitterly and shakes his head. He doesn't know how to refute Yin Xi's wonderful logic and speech. Raise an eye to see two people to walk to this side to come over, Xiao Yao called a tone to smile a way: "it seems that I these three years white live."

"What?" Yin Xi is surprised to hear Xiao Yao's words, and then he reacts and looks behind him. He sees two people coming. One of the waiters is dressed with a tray in his hand, and the other is a young blonde in a casual suit. Looking at the way he walks in front of the waiters, he is most likely the owner of the restaurant.

"No? It's true that some people send things. I'll just say it casually. " Yin Xi, who turns around, smiles at the three people. The other three were all speechless.

"Sorry to disturb you, ladies and gentlemen. Ah, it's Ms. bellette. Hello The young blonde said, and when he saw bellette at the table, he added a greeting. Originally, he wanted to hire the teenager to be a pianist in the restaurant and perform at a fixed time. When he saw that there was Betty bellette in the audience, he had to give up his idea. Young people who can eat at the same table with bellette should not like the career of restaurant pianist.

"Hello, Mr. Patil. Thank you for your delicious food. What can I do for you?" Betty said hello to the blonde, and praised the food in the restaurant.

"Thank you for your praise. It's our pleasure that you like it." Patty, a young blonde, responded with a smile and then said, "in order to thank this young gentleman for his wonderful performance just now, I'd like to send you some desserts. Please enjoy them."

"Thank you." Betty, thank you very much.

Patil motioned, and the waiter behind him put the four desserts on the tray in front of them.

"Did that sound familiar?" Yin Xi asked Xiao Yao with a smile.

Xiao Yao smiles and doesn't answer.

Patil added: "the little gentleman's performance just now is absolutely wonderful. In the history of our restaurant, there were only two times when young customers played on the stage. The last time was three years ago. It's said that the young man's performance was wonderful at that time. Unfortunately, I was not present at that time, so I didn't have the chance to see it. Today, I saw the performance of this young pianist, which can be regarded as a slight remedy for my regret. "

Yin Xi interrupted with a smile: "Mr. Patil, three years ago, was your restaurant in Yanjing, China?"

Patil nodded and said, "yes, miss. My restaurant opened here only two years ago. It was always in China before. How do you know? "

Yin Xi didn't answer, and then said, "although you didn't see the young pianist three years ago, you should have heard from your staff. Is he also a Chinese with yellow skin and black hair? I went to dinner with a 30-year-old lady. "

Pattier was surprised and said, "yes, was miss there?"

"No, I wasn't there." Yin Xi said with a smile. He pointed to Xiao Yao and said, "I know this because he was the young man who played the piano in your restaurant in Yanjing."

"Really? Oh, my God, "Patil opened her mouth and looked at Xiao Yao. Seeing Xiao Yao nodding, Patil said repeatedly, "it's incredible, it's incredible."

Yin Xi continued with a smile: "Mr. Patil, you are so predestined with our young pianist. After three years, from Yanjing to New York, you finally met him. Now you have no regrets? "

"Of course," nodded Patil, "I'm so lucky. For the sake of luck, dessert is obviously not enough. " With that, Patil took out a card from his suit pocket and handed it to Xiao Yao, saying, "Mr. young pianist, this is our membership card. Please accept it."

"Ah? This is a membership card. The French are so casual. No, this guy is French. No wonder he speaks English with a strange accent Xiao Yao said in his heart.

"If I take this card, you don't want me to go up and play the song that I played in Yanjing three years ago for you again, do you?" Xiao Yao pretended to be hesitant and took the card from Patil, jokingly asked

"of course, you don't want to take other people's things." Yin Xi immediately said, "it happens that the three of us haven't heard the song you played three years ago."

Of course, Patil didn't want to force the guests to do something they didn't want to do. She was hesitant at first, but the beautiful woman who shared the table with Xiao Yao said so. She quickly followed the interface and said, "if you like, it's our honor."

Looking at the expectant eyes of several people, Xiao Yao wants to slap himself. Staring at Yin Xi, Xiao Yao has to get up again and walk to the stage again.

When Patil saw her, she happily picked up an empty glass and a fork from the empty table next to her and knocked the glass with the fork. The guests in the restaurant were attracted by the sound and immediately looked at Patil.

"The performance of the young pianist just now is very good, isn't it?" Patil said in a high voice Hearing the positive response from the guests, Patil continued: "so, our restaurant is honored to invite him to offer us another song." With that, Patil put down the fork and took the lead in clapping.As expected, the young man went on the stage again and sat down in the place where the original pianist gave way for the second time. The customers who really enjoyed listening to him just now responded with applause. Meanwhile, Betty picked up her cell phone again.

Xiao Yao had to stand up again and bow slightly in several directions. Then he sat down again.

With a sigh of relief, he pressed the keys with both hands, and the beautiful melody of "memories of childhood" spread throughout the restaurant.
