Sonata: Fleeing to Avoid an Arranged Marriage

Chapter 1: run away from marriage

Views:

The noisy voices of people and cars at the bus station can be heard endlessly, and a pink figure is dragging an equally pink suitcase, dexterously shuttling through the bustling crowd.

Bypassing a chauffeur, Mi Qing rushed towards the ticket hall at a speed of 100 meters.

When jumping up the steps, the Hello Kitty luggage bag on the tow box became unsteady and fell down. She quickly picked up the luggage bag and carried it in her hand, and walked towards the ticket window with the fewest people with some difficulty.

"The ticket for the nearest departure, thank you." Her breathing was a little short, but her voice was clear and pleasant, like the most transparent sunshine in winter. The conductor looked up from the window and glanced at her.

Mi Qing took out her wallet from the shoulder bag, and repeated: "The ticket for the nearest departure from now, thank you."

The conductor was stunned, and then asked formulaically, "Where's the destination?"

Mi Qing's eyebrows moved slightly, and she suddenly smiled: "I can go anywhere, as long as I can get out of here as soon as possible."

The conductor was stunned again, wondering if he had received any portraits of wanted criminals recently.

"Can you hurry up? I'm in a hurry." Seeing that the conductor hadn't moved for a long time, Mi Qing finally couldn't help urging.

The conductor came back to his senses, and skillfully tapped a few times on the keyboard with his fingertips: "In two minutes, the train departs from platform 11, and the fare is 43."

Mi Qing handed over a hundred-yuan bill, received the ticket and the change, and hurriedly ran towards the No. 11 ticket gate.

As soon as she entered the platform, a staff member yelled at her: "Is this the car? Hurry up and leave immediately!"

Mi Qing quickened her pace and walked over. The staff checked her ticket and spoke quickly and authentically: "Seat 20, get on the bus and start immediately."

Mi Qing responded, dragged the suitcase for two steps and then came back. The staff took the luggage from her hand and helped her stuff it into the compartment: "I'll put it for you, get on the train quickly."

Mi Qing watched her slightly rude movements, and before she had time to remind her to be gentle, her tender pink heart-shaped polka-dot trailer box had already been stuffed in, followed by a loud "snap" slamming the door.

Mi Qing felt her heart tremble.

Seeing that she was still standing at the door after putting away her luggage, the staff asked impatiently, "Why are you still standing here?"

Mi Qing pursed her lips, turned around and stepped into the car.

There were only half of the people in the car, she found seat 20, and just sat down in the seat, the car slowly drove out of the platform.

Her position is by the window, and she can just observe the situation outside the platform through the glass. She glanced sideways, but didn't find any pursuers, and finally let out a light breath, slowly letting go of her heart.

Only then did she remember to take a look at where the car was going to take her.

Turning over the ticket in his hand, there are five bold characters printed in ink on it.

A City South Station.

City A? Mi Qing searched her memory, and it seems that she has never been to this city, although city C is only two hours away from city A.

"Are you a college student too? You're only returning to school at this time?"

The passenger seated next to her suddenly spoke to her, and Mi Qing raised her head and glanced at her.

I didn't look carefully just now, but the girl sitting next to her was also a college student with long hair, dressed very ladylikely, and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses on her face.

Mi Qing sized her up, smiled at her and said, "I'm not going back to school."

The girl was a little curious: "Then are you going to work? I just went to City A for an interview."

While they were talking, the car had already left the bus station, Mi Qing glanced out of the window again, and closed the curtains with a "wow", "I'm going to escape marriage."

Two hours ago, under the cover of her best friend, Mi Qing escaped from home with a huge sum of money.

Of course, she thinks it's not her fault. Anyone who has just graduated after studying abroad for four years and is told that he has an extra fiancé—or someone whose name you haven't even heard before, will definitely feel a little emotional.

She also tried to communicate with her parents, but her father was determined to let her marry, not only did not listen to her opinion at all, but also asked her mother to put her under house arrest, and she had no personal freedom until the engagement ceremony was completed.

Mi Qing remembered that someone seemed to have said that life should be a trip that you can leave whenever you want.

So she is now sitting in this car heading to City A.

She took out the blindfold from her satchel, put it on her eyes, and decided to have a good sleep first.

When the bus arrived at the station, she took out her phone and checked the time, it was five thirty-seven in the afternoon. She took her suitcase out of the compartment and checked it carefully, but fortunately there was no scratches.

The bus station in city A is the same as city C, with all kinds of voices mixed together, making the bustling noise. Mi Qing dragged her luggage in her hands, looked up at the ostentatious sun above her head, brushed her soft curly hair behind her back, and walked out with a smile on her face.

City A is a bustling metropolis, and the bus station is also very artistic. She took out her mobile phone and took a picture, looking around at the scenery around her.

Although it was full of unfamiliar scenery, there was a little restlessness in my heart.

It feels like the adventure I've been looking forward to since I was a kid.

She raised the corners of her mouth and walked forward along the road. There are many vendors and small shops on both sides of the street, as well as drivers soliciting customers. Mi Qing walked all the way and picked the cleanest taxi.

Seeing a passenger getting on the bus, the driver asked enthusiastically, "Beauty, where are you going?"

When asked this question again, Mi Qing thought for a while, then smiled at the driver and said, "Go to the biggest and most famous hotel here."

"Okay!" The driver stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the next intersection.

The taxi finally stopped at the entrance of Ding'ou Hotel. After Mi Qing got out of the car, she took out her luggage from the trunk and looked up at the towering buildings in front of her.

Well, yes, the gate is well built, and she gives it eight points.

When dragging the suitcase and walking over, the handsome doorman enthusiastically trotted over from a long distance, and took up the heavy responsibility of carrying the suitcase.

Mi Qing gave him all her luggage, and went to the front desk to check in with ease.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry, this card of yours cannot be used." The girl at the front desk tactfully returned the credit card to Mi Qing.

Mi Qing's eyes moved, and she opened the wallet and took out two cards: "Try these two too."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The front desk staff tried everything as required, and then returned all of them to her, "Sorry, none of them can be used. If you have cash, you can pay directly in cash."

Mi Qing pulled the corner of her mouth and took a deep breath for herself.

It doesn't matter. She already knew that her father would use this trick to deal with her. In order to deal with the crisis of supplementary card being suspended, she has prepared a lot of cash!

She asked for an executive suite, paid a three-day deposit in one go, and took the room card to the upstairs room.

The environment of the executive suite is good, the big bed is very soft, and the bathtub is big enough. Mi Qing filled it with water comfortably and took a bubble bath.

Exhaling lazily, she stretched and narrowed her eyes comfortably.

She had carefully planned her escape this time, but she hadn't had time to plan the plan after the escape.

But who cares, since they are all in City A, let's have fun first.

She made a rough calculation, the money she carried should last for a while, and it would be best for her father to change his mind during this period, if not... She is also a returnee after all, and she should find a job in city A to earn a living. no problem.

In any case, she doesn't want to marry that.

It's just that my mother might be worried about her. When she left, she even threw away her calling card.

Thinking of this, she frowned and changed her position in the bathtub.

Mom must be reluctant to stay outside all the time, as long as she is willing to speak up for her, the marriage may have a better chance.

As long as you persist until that day, you can win the final victory!

The water in the bathtub gradually became cold, Mi Qing wiped off the water droplets on her body, and walked out in her rabbit ear pajamas and slippers.

After calling the western restaurant to order a set meal, she dug out the computer from the luggage bag and connected to the hotel's WiFi.

Mr. Rabbit updated a new Weibo.

"Tonight's concert was a great success, and it's a great honor to be able to work with Master Jennings. [smiles]"

Mi Qing rested her chin with one hand, staring at the photos on Weibo in a daze. Brother Rabbit, do you know that I am being forced into marriage now

After thinking about it, she felt her eyes a little sore, she sniffed, Mi Qing turned off the computer, and concentrated on waiting for her dinner.

The next day, she didn't get up until ten o'clock. She went out and bought a new mobile phone card for herself. Then, on the recommendation of the driver, she went to Starlight Department Store for the first stop, and then went to Baima Plaza. On the third day, she decided to Go to Starlight Park to have a look.

When leaving the hotel, the staff at the front desk stopped her: "Miss Mi, your room will be checked out at 11 o'clock today, do you need to check in for you?"

Mi Qing said: "Well, I will handle it when I come back."

"Okay, we can reserve it for you until two o'clock in the afternoon at the latest."

Mi Qing nodded, and continued with her shopping and eating schedule.

Because she had to come back at noon to renew her stay, Mi Qing decided to return to the hotel directly after having lunch at the restaurant in Starlight Park, but when she checked out, she found that the small bag containing the money was missing.

Because she carried a lot of cash on her body, she specially used a small bag to hold the money, but now, that small bag has disappeared.

Mi Qing's heart suddenly panicked, there was almost all her money in it.

The waiter saw that her expression was not good, so she asked her a question, Mi Qing bit the corner of her mouth, took out the cash from her wallet and handed it to the waiter.

She only put some change in her wallet for her usual bill payment, about a thousand dollars in it. Although she spends money lavishly, she still takes good care of her belongings, but now her wallet is still there, but the small bag containing the money is gone.

At this moment, many guesses flashed through her mind, and the biggest possibility was that it was stolen. But who stole it, and where was it stolen? How did the thief know she had a pouch for money? Or did he see it when he was shopping for clothes two days ago, and then set his sights on him, and finally found a chance to do it today

She recalled that the packet was still there when she bought chocolates at the chocolatier. That is to say, it was stolen while taking pictures in Huahai

The waiter brought the change, saw her pale face, and asked with concern: "Madam, is there something wrong with your body?"

"I'm fine, thank you." Mi Qing took the change and walked out of the restaurant quickly. Although she knew the chances were slim, she still searched the same way without giving up.

Not to mention the wallet, I didn't even see a dime.

She had never been so desperate when she heard that she was about to marry a man she didn't know.

For her now, money is all security.

She took out her mobile phone and wanted to call the police, but she was worried that the police would contact her family. There is no surveillance here in Huahai, and she doesn't know where she was stolen. The chance of catching the thief is very slim.

She squatted on the ground for a while, then took a taxi back to the hotel.

When passing by the front desk, the girl at the front desk reminded her again: "Miss Mi, do you need to check in for your extended stay?"

Mi Qing paused, and said, "No need, I'll go up and pack my things and check out."

All of her spending in the hotel these days was on the room rate. When she settled the bill, not only did she not refund her deposit, but she also asked her to make up the money.

Mi Qing is now only thankful that she still left some money in the hotel, otherwise she would still have to go see the police today.

When she was carrying her luggage out of the hotel, she dug out all the money in her body and counted it carefully.

A total of three hundred and eighty fifty cents.

She stuffed all the banknotes and a few coins into her wallet and stared blankly at the sky.

The ticket back to City C was only 43 yuan, and 308 yuan and 50 cents would get her home smoothly.

But going back like this, it would be very difficult for her to run away from home again. She seemed to be able to see the scene where she was forced to try on the wedding dress.

But if she continues to stay in City A, she will face the plight of sleeping on the streets.

... Ah, the sun is so dazzling.

She withdrew her gaze, dragged her luggage and walked forward dejectedly.

Although she can find a job here, can she find it immediately? Even if you find it, can you advance her salary? She only has three hundred yuan with her now, and she doesn't even know where to live tonight.

The taxi driver waiting on the side of the road honked his horn and shouted at her: "Beauty, do you want to take a car?"

Mi Qing smiled palely: "No need."

She herself didn't know where to go.

After walking along the road for more than an hour, Mi Qing's legs finally started to protest. She walked to the bench by the side of the road and sat down, wanting to take off her high heels, but considering her own image, she just thumped her legs through the boots.

Before he could rest well, the right cheek was hit by a drop of cold rain without warning.

Mi Qing was taken aback, and wiped the wetted area with her hands.

... can't be so unlucky

She looked up at the sky, and the rain was falling drop by drop, which was very poetic.

Mi Qing: "..."

She quickly trotted up with the suitcase, looking around, but there was not even a place to shelter from the rain.

Fortunately, the rain was not heavy. After running for a while, she finally found a small shop and jumped up the steps.

After wiping her wet hair and coat with a paper towel, Mi Qing took out the mirror and took a look at her makeup to see if it was stained.

While standing and waiting for the rain to stop, she looked around a few times. It seems to be a residential area, and there are many residential buildings nearby. Judging from the appearance of the house, this place should be an old community, and there are even small advertisements that damage the city appearance on the front poles.

Hey, wait a minute.

She dragged the suitcase and walked over, taking a closer look.

Nancheng Garden 100 square meters hardcover set 2, the monthly rent is only 299! If you are interested, please contact Mr. Xiao at 138XXXXXXXX!

Mi Qing's eyes lit up, 299, she still has nine yuan and fifty cents left after paying the rent, ten yuan if rounded up!

She immediately picked up the phone and pressed the number, checked it carefully, and then dialed the number.

No one heard.

She did not give up and dialed again, but no one answered.

She hung up the phone, tore off the small advertisement printed on A4 paper, and prepared to go directly to Nancheng Garden.

The rain just stopped at this time, Mi Qing dragged the suitcase and went out, looked around, and easily found the real estate that said "Nancheng Garden".

An aunt came out of the gate with two large folding fans in her hand, as if she was going to dance in the square. Mi Qing held a small rental advertisement in her hand, walked up and asked, "Auntie, do you know this Mr. Xiao?"

The aunt looked at it twice, and said, "This seems to be Boss Xiao's phone number. Does he want to rent a house?"

Mi Qing blinked her big eyes: "Boss Xiao? Do you know where he lives? No one answered my call."

The aunt turned around and pointed to a house inside with the fan in her hand: "That's the one, building 6 B701, but why does he only rent 299 a month, this house..."

"Thank you!" The aunt was still muttering, Mi Qing quickly thanked her, and walked quickly towards the sixth building.

As I said just now, this area is full of old communities, so the houses do not have elevators.

Climbing up to the 7th floor with so much luggage was a disaster for Mi Qing, and a devastating disaster for Mi Qing who was wearing high heels.

Standing downstairs in Building 6, she took out her mobile phone and called that Mr. Xiao, but no one answered.

Mi Qing took a deep breath, picked up the suitcase with one hand, and climbed up with a heroic face.

After resting three times in the middle, I finally made it to the seventh floor alive. Panting heavily, she rang the doorbell.

Not long after, light footsteps came from the door, followed by a click, and the door was opened. The heat brought by the heater hit Mi Qing's face, she raised her head slightly, and saw the man standing in front of her clearly.

With an inverted triangle figure and long legs, even if he only wears a white T-shirt and jeans, he is more energetic than the male models on the catwalk. The key is that he also has a handsome face, with his messy short black hair and his lazy eyes, coupled with this face, he has become the most popular lazy and sexy nowadays.

Although briefly confused by the beauty, Mi Qing quickly remembered her original intention of coming here: "Hi, do you have a room for rent?"
