Chapter 329 Heart Knot
Song Yuanchao was standing in the yard, with Luo Yang next to him.
There was music playing in the room. Not only Luo Lin, but also Lin Yan, Li Xiaoyun and even Chen Yuqin were attracted by the wonderful music. Several women sat quietly on the sofa and enjoyed the enjoyment brought by the music.
The driver worked very hard for a long time and made great efforts in moving the goods. Although this driver was a driver of the Eighth Factory, this was the home of their factory director Lin Yuhang, and most of the things moved today were electrical appliances for Lin Yuhang and Luo Lin's wedding, from the perspective of human feelings and courtesy, necessary thanks were still needed, and he couldn't let him work in vain.
This matter was a piece of cake for Zhang Yong, who often dealt with people in society, so he volunteered to arrange it. When Zhang Yong and the driver walked out, Luo Yang handed a cigarette to Song Yuanchao, and the two stood in the yard and smoked.
"I didn't see you when I reported to school yesterday. What have you been busy with these days?" Song Yuanchao asked after taking a puff of cigarette.
"What else can I do? I have to take care of my sister's business." Luo Yang pointed in the direction of the house. "The people in Yangcheng are in a hurry. They will arrive in Beijing in a few days. We have to do some preparations here in advance, otherwise we won't be able to do the work when they arrive."
"It seems that things went smoothly?" Song Yuanchao asked with a smile. He knew about Luo Yang's negotiations in Yangcheng and Pacific, but he didn't know much about the specific results. After all, communication was not convenient in that era, Luo Yang and his friends returned to Beijing early, and Song Yuanchao had been staying in Pengcheng and had no chance to inquire.
"Well, it went smoothly. Yangcheng helped to select a few songs, and together with your two songs..." Luo Yang paused and said, "Pacific found professional teachers to recompose the music for your two songs. Thank you so much for this."
"Look at what you said. We are one family, why should we thank each other? It's good to be able to help." Song Yuanchao laughed and patted Luo Yang's arm, subconsciously looking towards the house: "By the way, is your sister ready ? Is everything okay?"
When asked about this, Luo Yang smiled: "My sister was reluctant at first. It was Xiaoyun who helped convince her, otherwise she would not be willing. But now everything is fine. My sister has been practicing those songs these days. After the Pacific people arrive, she will try singing once. If there is no problem, we can officially record."
"That's great! When the tape comes out, send me a copy. I need to listen to your sister's singing."
"That's no problem. Not to mention one box, even ten boxes will be no problem. I'll give you more then. You can also help deliver them to other people, or help my sister with advertising or something." Luo Yang agreed with a smile.
"By the way, what's the current situation between you, Zhang Yong and Xiaoyun?" Luo Yang mentioned Li Xiaoyun just now, and now Zhang Yong has also come to Yanjing. It was inconvenient with so many people before, but now it's just him and Luo Yang, so Song Yuanchao couldn't help but ask.
"This..." Luo Yang looked a little embarrassed for a moment. He scratched his head and his face flushed slightly: "It's nothing, we are all friends..."
"Stop, stop, stop. Do you think I'm blind? Even a fool can see the relationship between you three, and you tell me it's nothing?" Song Yuanchao waved his hand and glared at him.
Luo Yang couldn't help but chuckle, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "How should I put it... Well, I won't hide it from you, and I can't hide it from you. I have feelings for Xiaoyun, and so does Zhang Yong. We are both pursuing her, but Zhang Yong and I have agreed privately that each of us will do it based on our abilities. If Xiaoyun is sure that she likes someone, then the other person will withdraw unconditionally. That's it, are you satisfied?"
"When did you discuss this? In Shanghai?"
"Yes, it was the day when I first met Zhang Yong in Shanghai..." Luo Yang briefly told Song Yuanchao what happened that day, and Song Yuanchao felt relieved after hearing it. After all, both Luo Yang and Zhang Yong were his friends, and with the relationship between him and Li Xiaoyun, Song Yuanchao didn't want the two of them to quarrel over Li Xiaoyun.
Since Luo Yang and Zhang Yong had both agreed to use this method to decide the winner, this might be the most appropriate solution. As long as the two did not turn against each other, Song Yuanchao would not care, but when he thought of Li Xiaoyun, he frowned again.
"You guys may compete privately, but do you know what Xiaoyun is thinking? Does she like you or Zhang Yong? Brother, you and Zhang Yong are not strangers, and feelings are not controlled by others. But what you are doing now is also a pressure on Xiaoyun. Xiaoyun is much younger than us, and she is still in school. Now Zhang Yong has followed her to Yanjing. What will we do after school starts? Don't you and Zhang Yong have to follow her everywhere?"
Luo Yang opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just smiled bitterly: "I really haven't thought about this. Besides, I can't stop Zhang Yong from coming to Beijing! As for Xiaoyun, do you think I have the nerve to ask directly? What if she..."
Song Yuanchao understood Luo Yang's thoughts and shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
After thinking for a while, Song Yuanchao said, "I don't mind pursuing love, but the premise is that it can't affect Xiaoyun. Your competition is no longer a private competition. If it continues like this, it will cause great confusion to Xiaoyun. After all, she is a girl. If her reputation is damaged because of your competition, do you think it's acceptable?"
Hearing this, Luo Yang's expression suddenly changed. This was indeed something he had not expected. Moreover, school was about to start. If the teachers and students in the whole school saw him and Zhang Yong following Li Xiaoyun, who knew what rumors would spread.
Girls nowadays are still very reserved, and the social atmosphere is far less open than it will be 20 or 30 years later. If Luo Yang really brought confusion and problems to Li Xiaoyun, he would not forgive himself.
But just let go like this? Luo Yang was unwilling to give up. In the past few days of contact with Zhang Yong, although the two were rivals in love on the surface, they also got to know each other and became friends. The two came from different backgrounds and families, but this did not prevent them from having a common language and becoming friends.
Luo Yang and Zhang Yong may not admit it, but in their hearts they have already regarded each other as friends. Since they are friends, they also understand each other's character. Luo Yang believes that once he lets go, Zhang Yong will definitely take advantage of the situation with his character. Isn't this just like shooting himself in the foot?
For a moment, Luo Yang felt very conflicted, and this conflict was also revealed on his face.
He sighed in his heart. To be honest, Song Yuanchao had not expected that the relationship between Luo Yang, Li Xiaoyun and Zhang Yong would develop to such a complicated level. But the facts were already in front of him. Song Yuanchao couldn't just stand by and watch, right?
Patting Luo Yang on the shoulder, Song Yuanchao said that the matter was left to him, and he would naturally make arrangements on how to do it.
The next day, Song Yuanchao went straight to Li Xiaoyun and found a reason to ask her out alone.
After meeting and chatting for a while, Song Yuanchao directly asked Li Xiaoyun what she thought of Luo Yang and Zhang Yong, and asked her who she liked.
The clever Li Xiaoyun seemed to have guessed the reason why Song Yuanchao was looking for her before they met. When Song Yuanchao raised this question in person, Li Xiaoyun did not show any surprise.
"Brother Yuanchao, how should I put it..." Li Xiaoyun lowered her head slightly: "Let's talk about Luo Yang first. I first met Luo Yang in Dashilan, the day when Xiao Qiao broke my sugar painting. When I first met him, I thought Luo Yang was very arrogant, and he also set a trap for you in school. At that time, I had a very bad impression of him, so I didn't treat him well..."
Talking about the past, Li Xiaoyun couldn't help but reveal a smile at the corner of her mouth, mentioning the time when Li Xiaoyun had just met Luo Yang and had a tit-for-tat argument with Luo Yang, making Luo Yang speechless and his face blue with anger.
"But after getting to know him for a long time, I found that this guy is not bad, but rather quite good..." Li Xiaoyun continued. She had resistance and dissatisfaction with Luo Yang at the beginning. The key point was that when she first entered school, Luo Yang tricked Song Yuanchao and almost made Song Yuanchao fall into a trap.
Although Song Yuanchao finally resolved the matter easily, Li Xiaoyun was dissatisfied with Luo Yang after hearing about it. In addition, their first formal meeting in Dashilan could not be considered "friendly", which made Li Xiaoyun have a bad impression of Luo Yang.
But after a long period of contact, Li Xiaoyun gradually understood the whole story. Luo Yang really couldn't be blamed for this incident. If anyone had to blame someone, it could only be Zhao Minglei.
Later, out of curiosity and interest, Li Xiaoyun took the initiative to go to Dazhalan to help, and she had more exchanges with Luo Yang and others. As time went by, Li Xiaoyun's impression of Luo Yang gradually changed, and their relationship gradually became closer.
As for Zhang Yong, Li Xiaoyun had a different feeling about him. She had heard of Zhang Yong when she was a child, because Zhang Yong was a famous figure in their area at that time. In the eyes of many people, Zhang Yong was a representative of a "bad student" and a "social person", but in the heart of Li Xiaoyun, who was still a little girl, a figure like Zhang Yong had a special attraction to her.
But after getting to know Zhang Yong, Li Xiaoyun suddenly discovered that the Zhang Yong whom she had imagined to be a big and strong man who was good at fighting was actually a gentle-looking young man. There was an indescribable charm in his every move, especially.
In addition, because of her own reasons that day, Zhang Yong almost lost his life. After the incident, Li Xiaoyun was immediately attracted to Zhang Yong. In her opinion, compared with Luo Yang, Zhang Yong was more manly, and at the same time he was also tender and considerate.
This is how Li Xiaoyun feels about Luo Yang and Zhang Yong, but if you ask her who she really likes, Li Xiaoyun really can't answer the question.
Because in Li Xiaoyun's heart, both Luo Yang and Zhang Yong are good candidates, they have a good relationship with each other, and Li Xiaoyun is also very clear about their feelings for her. But smart Li Xiaoyun can't convince herself who to choose, and she doesn't want to lose these two friends because of her own reasons. So these days, although Li Xiaoyun clearly understands the attitudes of Luo Yang and Zhang Yong, including the reasons for their private competition, she still pretends not to know, and acts careless and heartless in front of them.
