Sonata: Fleeing to Avoid an Arranged Marriage

Chapter 20

Views:

After graduating from high school, Gu Xin came to City A. He became famous by playing in a band here, and even debuted as a singer, so he settled down in City A directly.

He doesn't get in touch with people from his hometown in C City very often. The only person who has a good relationship with him is his cousin Xiao Gu. I didn't expect that one day, I would meet my old playmates in A.

His agent booked a VIP room for them in Tianxiaju, so that the two of them could catch up on the old days.

"When did you return to China?" Gu Xin shook the tea in the ceramic cup and asked Zhou Yiran who was opposite.

Zhou Yiran said: "Last month, I didn't expect to have the opportunity to cooperate with you when I came back. What an adventure."

Gu Xin laughed, he was doing rock music, and he would never have anything to do with the piano, but recently he was trying a new style, and wanted to incorporate piano elements into the arrangement, so he asked his manager to contact the pianist.

Unexpectedly, he found Zhou Yiran.

"I'm surprised that you still recognize me." He took a sip of tea and put down the cup, "Are you going to stay in City A for a while?"

Zhou Yiran nodded: "I will stay here until the recording of your album is finished." He paused here and looked at Gu Dao, "What about you? Do you often go back to City C?"

Gu Xin shrugged: "They don't like me playing music."

Zhou Yiran's eyes moved. When he was a child, Gu Xin was more independent. He often didn't come to the gatherings of their circle. The Gu family probably felt a headache all the time. He smiled and said, "I also play music."

Gu Xin slightly raised his eyebrows: "You are different, you are a pianist in their eyes, and I am a singer."

Zhou Yiran lowered his head and laughed twice: "I checked your information before I came, and you have won many awards."

Gu Xin smiled lightly and shook his head: "Did you not watch the music festival that just passed? Ding Meng won both the Golden Melody Award and the best music album of the year."

Zhou Yiran thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about pop music, but you came to me this time to make a breakthrough in style, didn't you?"

"En." Gu Xin responded, as if thinking about something.

There was a knock on the door, and the waiter came in with a plate and began to serve the food. Zhou Yiran looked at a table of Chinese dishes, and smiled at Gu Xin: "When I was abroad, I missed the food of my motherland every day. You stay in City A alone, don't you feel homesick?"

Gu Xin said: "Fortunately, my cousin is also here."

Zhou Yiran pondered for a moment, recalling Gu Xin's cousin: "I seem to have a little impression, is his name Xiao Gu?"

Gu Xin couldn't help laughing: "Your memory is too good, he has only been to City C once, and he was still very young."

Zhou Yiran said proudly: "I still remember that it was Huo Li's mother's birthday party."

The time when they are dining in Tianxiaju is also the peak business period for Xiao Gu Chuan Chuan shop.

Probably because of the trip three days later, everyone's mood was very high, and they worked harder than before. Of course, there are exceptions, such as employees like Mi Qing who cannot participate in tourism.

"Mi Qing, Mi Qing, what kind of clothes do you think I should wear when I go on a trip?" Shen Shishi asked Mi Qing, who looked well-dressed, in a leisurely way.

Although Shen Shishi is not a regular employee, she has been working here for more than a year, so Boss Xiao made an exception and asked her to travel together.

When Mi Qing heard this question, she smiled faintly: "You have to take off when you go to the hot spring anyway, so does it make any difference what clothes you wear?"

Shen Shishi: "..."

What she said seems to make sense.

Mi Qing stopped chatting with her and went on with her own business.

After get off work, she still goes home alone. Both Xiao Gu and Husky were still awake. Seeing her come back, Husky ran up wagging his tail: "Wow!"

Mi Qing patted its dog's head and continued to walk in. Xiao Gu looked at her and asked, "Are you on vacation tomorrow?"

Mi Qing stopped and replied, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

Xiao Gu said: "I'm going to the mall tomorrow to buy some things for travel, do you want to go together?"

Mi Qing hehehe: "I won't go, I don't have a part to travel." She would rather sleep at home for a day.

The corner of Xiao Gu's mouth raised a small arc almost invisible: "Who said you don't have your share?"

Mi Qing was stunned, looked at him and said, "Isn't it only the employees who have been working for one year are eligible to go?"

Xiao Gu said: "I am the boss, I have the final say."

Mi Qing choked.

This feeling is that the domineering boss is in love with me...

She shook her head and threw out all these things: "You mean I can go too?"

"Um."

Mi Qing was silent for a while, and then said calmly: "Oh, then I'll go to the mall with you tomorrow." After she finished speaking, she calmly walked back to her room.

After locking the door, Mi Qing opened the closet and searched inside with sparkling eyes.

A creamy white embroidered turtleneck sweater, a black knee-length organza skirt, and a pink long and fragrant jacket, perfect! Wear this when traveling!

After Mi Qing washed up happily, she was waiting to go shopping with Boss Xiao the next day.

She and Xiao Gu made an appointment to go out at ten o'clock. Considering that she had to put on makeup, she specially got up earlier. Putting on the outfit she prepared last night, Mi Qing took a look in the mirror, um, let's go out for a walk today.

When she came out with a shoulder bag, Xiao Gu had already put on her shoes and was waiting at the door. Mi Qing took out her mobile phone, opened it, looked at it, and held it in front of Xiao Gu: "It's nine fifty-nine, I haven't Oh late."

Xiao Gu smiled, turned around and opened the door: "Let's go."

"Wow!"

Husky squeezed out together, but was stopped by Xiao Gu: "Tian Tian, you stay and watch the house."

"Woof!" Husky yelled at Mi Qing again.

Mi Qing touched it and said, "God, stay and watch the house."

Husky: "..."

There is a feeling that I have become an outsider in a second.

Mi Qing and Xiao Gu went out together, and the husky who stayed alone in the vacant room was as lonely as snow.

When going down the stairs, Mi Qing was afraid of running into Grandpa Qiu again, but luckily she passed the fifth floor this time without incident. Xiao Gu, who was walking beside her, sized her up and asked suddenly, "How many sets of clothes did you take away?"

Mi Qing looked at him in surprise: "Is this also called too much? You don't even know that I still have so many favorite clothes that I can't fit in."

Xiao Gu didn't speak any more.

After walking out of the corridor, Mi Qing continued to walk out instinctively, but Xiao Gu stopped beside the garage downstairs, took out a bunch of keys from his bag, and opened the garage door.

Mi Qing: "..."

There was a golden-brown Land Rover parked in the garage, which looked very cool. Mi Qing blinked and asked, "Is this your car?"

"Otherwise?" Xiao Gu looked at her and asked back.

Mi Qing: "..."

Well, judging from the period of time she worked in the Chuan Chuan shop, the money made in the shop was enough for him to buy a Land Rover.

After Xiao Gu drove the car out, Mi Qing took the passenger seat. After fastening the seat belt, she looked sideways at Xiao Gu beside her: "Where are we going?"

"Starlight Department Store, there are a lot of things there, and I just want to buy some ingredients." Xiao Gu replied and started the car.

He drove very steadily, and even turned very flat. Mi Qing was looking at the scenery outside all the way. Although she has been in City A for a month, she only played outside in the first two days. , and later... the past is unbearable.

"You haven't visited City A yet, have you?" Xiao Gu asked suddenly.

Mi Qing nodded, feeling a little resentful. Xiao Gu calmly turned an intersection and said, "Whenever I'm free, I'll take you around to have fun."

"Really?" Mi Qing happily turned her head to look at him, and quickly snorted coldly, "Why did you bring it?"

Xiao Gu said: "Oh, then I will ask Xiao Dezi to take you."

Mi Qing: "..."

Such a choice between the two is simply bullying.

Xiao Gu drove for more than 20 minutes and arrived at Starlight Department Store. Coming out of the underground parking lot, the two went directly to the supermarket. The atmosphere of Christmas in shopping malls is already very strong. In addition to Christmas decorations that can be seen everywhere, supermarkets also sell small Christmas trees and various Christmas items.

Xiao Gu walked to the entrance area, where he selected ingredients, and Mi Qing also walked to the entrance area, where he selected snacks.

Xiao Gu saw that she had taken several bags of potato chips and a tin box of biscuits, and asked with great interest, "Have you become rich recently? It seems that it's time to pay the rent again."

Mi Qing: "..."

He didn't say that she almost forgot about it. She had searched on rental websites before, and an ordinary apartment cost around 1,000 yuan, and a single room was around 500 yuan. You really can't find another one for a cabbage-priced house like Xiao Gu's.

"I'll give you next month's rent when I get back." She had just received her salary, and she paid for Xiaopang and Xiaohei's extra lessons, so she was relatively well off.

Otherwise, she would not dare to visit this mall.

Xiao Gu didn't say anything else. After choosing the items, he checked out and left the supermarket. He planned to go back directly, but Mi Qing wanted to go to the women's clothing store upstairs.

Xiao Gu raised his brows with a slight smile: "It seems that I can consider raising the rent."

Mi Qing glanced at him with contempt, and said unhappily: "I can't afford it, so can't I have a look? Can't I just look at it?"

"Okay, okay." Before more people looked over, Xiao Gu hurriedly fulfilled the little princess.

Mi Qing is a big fan of Bunny, and her closet is almost filled with Bunny's clothes. So when she got to the women's clothing section, she went directly to Bunny's counter.

She was right in thinking, Bunny has already started to buy the first batch of spring clothes, and the price is more expensive than the down jacket sold next door.

But their styles are always particularly pleasing to Mi Qing, she tried all the styles she liked, and then dragged Xiao Gu away.

Counter shopping guide: "..."

When he got to the elevator, Xiao Gu couldn't help laughing: "Why are you walking so fast? Are you worried that the shopping guide will rush out and beat you?"

Mi Qing took a breath, suppressed the impulse in her heart and said, "I'm afraid that if I walk slowly, I won't be able to resist buying it."

Xiao Gu said: "But you have no money."

Mi Qing: "..."

This is simply a good cure for chopping hands.
