As soon as Su Yu stepped out of the tailor shop, he noticed a few girls hurriedly walking past him. They were chatting loudly, saying, "Hurry up, hurry up! We have a set time; we can't be late!" Among these girls was Xu Bei, a classmate of Su Yu.
Su Yu jokingly asked, "Xu Bei, where are you rushing off to? Is it for a blind date?"
"Ugh!" Xu Bei spat in mock disgust but quickly added excitedly, "Su Yu, don’t you love listening to music? Come with us to the school gate! Today, our girls' dormitory invited a street performer to sing at school. That guy sings really well!"
Intrigued, Su Yu eagerly inquired about the street performer. Xu Bei explained that yesterday, while shopping outside the school, they had seen a long-haired street singer sitting on the sidewalk near the school gate, strumming his guitar and singing. His voice was clear and resonant, with high notes as pure as the sky over the plateau. The girls were immediately captivated and gathered around him, listening for half an hour and tossing all their spare change into the hat he had placed in front of him.
When the singer left, they invited him to come sing at the school today. Since street performers weren't allowed inside the campus, they planned to meet him outside and bring his instruments in separately.
Xu Bei sighed dreamily to herself, "That singer's voice is just like Qi Qin's—so penetrating! And he plays the guitar so well; he's no worse than a professional singer."
"Oh?! Really? That sounds a bit exaggerated," Su Yu teased. "I bet you just think he’s handsome and are swooning over him."
"Come on!" one girl retorted. "When he was singing, his long hair covered his face. As soon as he finished singing, he put on a hat and bowed his head; we couldn’t see what he looked like at all."
Another girl chimed in dreamily, "Hey, I just thought he seemed tall and really strong." Su Yu's interest piqued further as he followed Xu Bei toward the school gate while Wang Xiaofeng clearly showed no interest in music and headed back to the dormitory.
Upon arriving outside the school gate, Xu Bei looked around but saw no long-haired street performer nearby.
"Is he not coming?" Xu Bei muttered anxiously after more than ten minutes. Just then, her phone rang. She checked the caller ID and saw it was an unfamiliar number. When she answered excitedly, she exclaimed, "It's the street singer calling!" He told Xu Bei that he had already entered the school; perhaps the gatekeeper thought he was a student and let him in without stopping him.
"Where are you now?" Xu Bei asked. The street singer replied, "I'm in Boys' Dormitory Three, Room 407." After hanging up the phone, Xu Bei suddenly heard Su Yu burst into laughter.
