Producer System: My Girlfriend is a Cellist

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian was suddenly choked up.

Indeed, back when they first knew each other, before Sir Gan's café was renovated, Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu used to practice the piano at Lin Tian's place every day.

In these old houses, unless they're specially treated, the soundproofing is not strong. It's almost as if there is none.

Under such conditions, it's as if only bystanders in those train molester movies can't hear a thing.

After all, those are the top-notch bystanders who don't even feel it when the heroine sprays water all over them, ruining the sense of immersion for those trying to focus on the plot, making them wonder every time: Are you deaf, really deaf!

So, one can imagine how much trouble Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu caused for their neighbors back then.

Lin Tian thought Gan Yanyu had long forgotten about this, or had never realized it happened.

Didn't expect it to be remembered in her heart all along?

Keeping it bottled up until New Year's when it's all let go, that's not a bad choice either.

"Alright, I'll change my clothes and be over in a bit."

Lin Tian said as he noticed Gan Yanyu was still digging through that sack, pulling things out.

Looks like aside from those items meant for the neighbors, there's more stuff in there.

"What else did you buy?"

"New Year's goods, of course."

"For me?"

"For both of us."

Yanyu blinked playfully.

Lin Tian was momentarily stunned.

Us?

From earlier, Lin Tian found it odd that Yanyu didn't go shopping for New Year's goods with her family as planned and came to see him instead.

Dressed up especially... standing in front of him.

Wouldn't someone going home for the holidays be busier today?]

Could there be a new plan...?

Lin Tian asked:

"Aren't you going to your parents' home for New Year's? Why prepare New Year's goods here with me?"

"I'm not staying until after the New Year. Although it might be past New Year's Eve when I leave, I won't stay too long."

"Oh, and I really like this pig-shaped gift bag, don't eat all the snacks inside, save some for me..."

Yanyu took out an oversized red handbag, seriously instructing Lin Tian as though she was entrusting him with something very important.

"...."

Alright.

Just dealing with someone who's kind of silly, I guess.

Usually too shy to buy more, Yanyu only rewards herself with sweets after diligent practice.

Now that New Year's is coming, she grabbed the excuse to buy loads of snacks and stocked Lin Tian's place.

Go ahead, eat more!

Gaining a few pounds after New Year's will humble you.

...

Lin Tian returned to his bedroom to change clothes.

Still the same signature plain top and sporty coat.

Thinking it's best to dress decently enough since visiting neighbors. N+e!ed c!ha&r@a$c$t#er% sh#e+e#ts! and glo^s!sa.ri.e!s.?@ V+isi&t! MV^L!E#M^P$Y+R.^

Though Lin Tian has lived in this residential area for years, his solitary lifestyle means he has few friends at school, let alone connections with neighbors.

Getting to know Sir Gan was already a miraculous occurrence, due to Sir Gan's initiative and Lin Tian's open-mindedness, it felt destined.

Tomorrow Gan Yanyu will leave, maybe this is the last day Lin Tian can enjoy the New Year's atmosphere with her.

So Lin Tian decided to make the most of it.

"...."

However,

When Lin Tian walked into the living room, he saw Yanyu standing with arms crossed, tilting her head and staring at him.

Her little lips suddenly puffed out.

She didn't seem very happy.

"Lin Tian, what do you think... when the two of us stand together, what do others think we look like?"

Yanyu asked calmly.

Standing together?

Lin Tian stepped beside Yanyu.

Glancing at his own handsome and suave self.

Then looked at the lovely Yanyu in a red cheongsam, like a Chinese lady.

Perfect match.

It's simply too perfect.

Isn't it obvious they look like a newlywed couple?

"The way we're dressed isn't even a bit coordinated!!"

Seeing Lin Tian be such a blockhead, Yanyu voiced her discontent.

All dolled up by herself, in festive and cute clothes, while Lin Tian wore something so simple.

"Anyone who doesn't know might think you're an older brother taking his little sister out for New Year shopping."

"So you call me brother?"

Lin Tian randomly remarked.

Probably because he knows Yanyu enjoys role-playing, the idea suddenly popped into his head.

If he could hear Yanyu call him "brother" on New Year's Eve, Lin Tian couldn't even imagine how thrilling that'd be.

However,

Yanyu stared at Lin Tian, falling silent.

...don't suddenly go quiet.

Lin Tian already wanted to die from embarrassment.

"Just giving stuff to neighbors; it doesn't need to be this formal, right?" Lin Tian decided to say instead.

"Relationships between people are important, you know, first impressions matter..."

Yanyu said while pushing Lin Tian's back, sending him back into the bedroom.

"Change again, change again..."

.....

A few minutes later.

Lin Tian walked out of his bedroom again, now wearing a red fleece hoodie.

It's also a festive Tian Chao red.

Lin Tian previously bought it online, but found the color too flashy, adding a hint of adolescence, so he barely wore it.

Since Yanyu insisted on matching her outfit, this seemed to fit both color and season, though it feels just marginally acceptable.....
