### Chapter 75: Let’s Go Shopping for Clothes Together!
Lin Tian’s words hit Gan Yan Yu right where she felt it. She had already thought that yesterday’s recording didn’t go well.
Why? Because she felt no discomfort after playing the music, and yet it wasn’t right.
This might sound strange, but it was true. She felt her emotions were disrupted by Lin Tian’s interaction at that moment. Although the video’s playback quality was decent, it failed to fully express the emotion of the song. In her heart, she felt a big empty space.
Since that’s the case, let’s put this piece as the finale at the concert.
Then, in front of a multitude of aesthetically-minded music media, she’d get another shot at it and give it a proper redo.
“Hey,” Gan Yan Yu suddenly remembered something, eyeing Lin Tian carefully.
“Do you have any performance clothes?”
“Is this outfit not good enough?” Lin Tian said, looking down at his pure white T-shirt and grey sweatpants, feeling slightly embarrassed himself.
“Of course not, do you think this is some sort of casual hangout place?”
“Don’t you think my relaxed vibe fits perfectly on stage?”
“A relaxed vibe is not what you should be showing on stage.”
“You’ve got it all wrong,” Lin Tian said solemnly, “There are people who perform without clothes, and they still get a standing ovation!”
“Really?”
Gan Yan Yu tilted her head, seemingly deep in thought.
She couldn’t recall ever hearing about anyone performing without clothes.
Her expression changed, “Isn’t this the friend who died from falling off a helicopter?”
.
Lin Tian hadn’t expected Gan Yan Yu to remember that incident.
In the future, he really needed to stop being so abstract; Gan Yan Yu wouldn’t understand his humor, and might even consider him a fool.
“Then what should I wear?”
“Easy,”
Gan Yan Yu smiled craftily,
“On Wednesday, I’ll go with you to pick out clothes.”
Wednesday.
After two days of intense mock exams, just before their grades would be announced, Lin Tian had made plans with Gan Yan Yu to watch a concert.
It was a wise decision.
Once the results came out, Lin Tian might not be in such a good mood.
Since the Sunny Day Concert Hall was near the city center, they agreed to meet near the school.
At the end of the last class, under the sunset,
Lin Tian and Xu Yong left the school gate as per usual.
“Brother Tian, if you stop working your part-time job, tell Manager Wang clearly, he keeps asking me when you’re going to return,”
Xu Yong was talking with Lin Tian when suddenly,
“Lin Tian!”
A crisp call echoed through.
They both turned around to see Gan Yan Yu waving excitedly in the distance.
She was so dazzling.
Even among the sea of coming and going students, she stood out like a beacon.
Seemingly to avoid attracting attention due to her unusual outfit, Gan Yan Yu had worn her school uniform today, with a neat ponytail.
Standing under the pear blossoms, she smiled and waved at them.
Even though she was on leave, wearing a school uniform was almost like cosplay.
What Gan Yan Yu didn’t realize was that her efforts were futile—she instantly caught everyone’s attention.
A lot of people craned their necks to look, whispering and discussing how there could be such a beautiful girl at No. 7 High School.
Xiaoxiao.
Beside Xu Yong, his face darkened,
“So you can’t stay satisfied at home and have to show off here at school?”
“Not really, I just happen to be meeting her today,”
.
Lin Tian was speaking when,
Gan Yan Yu ran over and stopped in front of him.
Seeing Xu Yong beside Lin Tian, she immediately pointed at him.
“You’re Xu… what’s your name again!”
“I’m Xu Yong,”
Xu Yong had a sly smile.
“Oh, right.”
To ease the tension, Gan Yan Yu rubbed her hands, “Did you enjoy those green bean cakes last time?”
Lin Tian pulled Gan Yan Yu aside, whispering,
“Don’t you forget? He didn’t eat it! You were holding him back when he wanted to.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Gan Yan Yu’s hand flew to cover her mouth.
“This is so awkward…”
“Don’t worry, usually there are no girls bringing stuff for me, he’s used to it,”
“Oh oh, then it’s fine.”
.
“Ha, looks like you two have more to talk about,”
Xu Yong scratched his head, grinning at both, “I won’t be the third wheel here, enjoy yourselves.”
He walked away, running at a pace that drowned his sobs in the crowd.
.
“What’s wrong with him?”
Gan Yan Yu asked worriedly.
“Maybe your voice was too loud?”
“What? He heard me? So awkward.”
“Forget it,”
Lin Tian shifted the topic.
He glanced at Gan Yan Yu with her high ponytail.
Then, taking a step back and examining her from head to toe, he said,
“What’s your weight now?”
“87.3 kg, actually,” she replied confidently.
“Wow, only three weeks and you’ve gained seven pounds!”
“She’s got quite a knack for gaining weight,” Lin Tian thought.
“Maybe I’ll be a shepherd instead, fattening up sheep and preparing them for the New Year.”
“If we keep this up, won’t you be able to return to school next week?”
Gan Yan Yu asked hopefully.
“Probably once our concert finishes.”
“Good.”
She put her hands behind her back, humming lightly, swaying side to side, looking blissfully happy.
“So, where should we go now?”
He asked.
At this point, Gan Yan Yu turned serious.
She raised her finger, blinking,
“Suit shop!”
