Xie Yang took to the stage and stood at the designated location. The moment the count down in his ear piece finished, he lightly stoked the bow of the violin and started playing.

The original version of 'Rainy Night Delusions' had a very fast rhythm, strong jump and a warm and intense style. It gave a sense of smoothness and no restraint. It didn't match Tao Yang's elegant design style.


In the adaptation, Xie Yang used the rhythm dislocation method. He retained the enthusiasm and tension of ‘Rainy Night Delusions’ while slowing down the rhythm. He lifted the notes that seemed to be smashed in the original so they were high and light. Then he weaved them in with the rhythm to become light and smooth.

If the original version of ‘Rainy Night Delusions’ was a roar and catharsis of a person’s mood in a heavy, rainy night with thunder, this adapted version was the happy dance of a cloud in the process of transforming in the rain. 

The first moment the violin sound was heard, the atmosphere in the venue was firmly controlled. Tao Yang listened to the violin backstage and clenched his fingers. Then he gestured to the first model. “Go out.”

The sound of the violin was like the clouds before they went away. The first drop of rain fell smoothly from the violin and the model wearing a white-grey gradient dress walked out from backstage like a raindrop falling to the earth.

Verden saw this scene and shook his head with amazement. “It can be controlled like this… perfect, Xie is more professional than I thought.”

Xie Yang had always been serious and professional in his work. He didn’t work slowly or deliberately behave badly because he was working with Tao Yang. In fact, the music he adapted perfectly blended with Tao Yang’s design style. It turned Tao Yang’s design into raindrops from the clouds. It was a gorgeous dance on a rainy night of delusions. 

At the end of the song, the rain broke and the clouds disappeared. The last model returned backstage. Xie Yang put down his violin, smiled at Verden and the others in the audience and turned around to prepare for the next show.

Backstage, Tao Yang was helping a model adjust the loose belt. He saw Xie Yang returning and took the initiative to say, “Very good.”

Xie Yang glanced over and replied, “You are also very good.”

On the way home from rehearsals, Xie Yang opened Weibo. Not surprisingly, he saw that today’s rehearsals were on the hot list. In the photo, he and Tao Yang had a ‘very good chat’. They ‘cooperated’ with each other and ‘appreciated’ each other. They seemed to have a very good relationship.

The person who posted the set of photos also mentioned the blogger who had revealed that Tao Yang was interested in Qiu Xing and mocked: Yes? Aren’t you going to come out and explain the so-called Tao Yang has ideas about Xie Yang’s boyfriend? If Tao Yang was really interested in Qiu Xing, could Xie Yang still chat and smile with Tao Yang like this? It is really just a rumor. Be careful not to be struck by lightning when speaking nonsense.

Here it came. Creating the illusion of a good relationship for the sake of white washing.

Xie Yang switched to WeChat and sent a message to Qin Cheng.
