From bar band to entertainment circle

Chapter 4
After getting out of the Dalang subway station, I felt a little tired, and a sense of confusion filled my mind.

At this time, I was in urgent need of a cigarette, and after touching my pocket a few times, I realized that I didn't bring it with me when I went out this morning, so I bought another pack at a convenience store on the way home.

Every time I go home, I pass through a small crossroad. Those who drive luxury cars often drive south, and I often go north of the crossroad.

To the south are two high-end communities, with an average price starting at RMB 3, especially the Cambridge Mansion on the right, which has a low floor area ratio, a greening rate, and a very high rate of occupancy. The superimposed villas far from the road are even more expensive Unbelievable.

Since I worked as a real estate salesperson for the past two months, I also have a little understanding of the real estate market in W City. During the period, I also accompanied my colleagues who bought and sold new houses to the Cambridge Mansion. Too much.

In this city, real estate is sold every day, and the sound of machines can be heard every day to build new real estate.

I remember that in my freshman year, we went to the Plum Garden to play. When we passed by here, there was no Cambridge mansion at that time. It was just a wasteland full of weeds. Paved with gold and silver treasures.

Although the housing prices in the old and new villages in the north are not as high as those there, they occupy a good commercial area and will be demolished and rebuilt sooner or later. I don’t know how many years later the owners here will laugh secretly under the quilt. Others don’t know, I guess Auntie Huang, the landlord, will definitely be the one with the happiest smile.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, I went to the nearby farmer's market on time to buy some ingredients. I planned to contact Qiqi and ask him to come over to catch up. In fact, it was just a gathering of two people.

"Are you free tonight? I've cooked some food, and I'll come over for a drink later, and I'll send you the address."

I sent a WeChat message to Qiqi, and attached the location and the house number of the community.

Maybe he was also playing with his mobile phone and got back to me almost instantly.

"Sure, then I'll come over later."

"Okay! See you later."

Putting down my phone, I started to get busy in the kitchen. When I was in school, I couldn’t believe that I could cook. When my dad called me some time ago, he was also very shocked when I told me about it, because when I was at home, I I was too slow in the kitchen. They thought I was sloppy, so they couldn't see it and just kicked me out of the kitchen and told me to do the dishes.

In fact, not only my dad, but even I can’t believe it. I used to think that cooking is troublesome and difficult. In fact, I only realized that the process of cooking is very comfortable, and I can calm down and let myself I can experience the joy of life in the process, especially the moment when the pot comes out, the tangy fragrance comes, and I feel a sense of accomplishment.

Not long after I started learning, I dare not say how delicious my cooking is, but I believe that it will definitely be edible and will not be classified as dark cuisine. I also believe that practice makes perfect in the future, and the control of the heat will get better and better.

About an hour later, the four dishes of beer duck, stir-fried sixties, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and cold cucumbers were successfully cooked. I put these dishes on the table and put them on the table. Now there is only one steamed fish left.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and I thought: Qiqi should be here.

"I'll go, such a big case of wine!"

Seeing Qiqi carrying a case of beer and a bag of fruit in the other hand, I couldn't help but laugh, "Qiqi, come whenever you come, and even give gifts during the New Year and holidays! Come and help me!" Give me your hand and give me the wine..."

"I can't help it. After stepping into the society, I finally understand why I need to bring something when I visit during the holidays."

Qi Qi looked around the house while talking, then locked her eyes on the cooking dishes on the dining table, and then said in surprise: "My God, Yun Qian, I didn't see it! You still hid this trick, and you didn't do it when you were in school." I saw you exposed before! I have a good fortune tonight."

"Hahaha…"

I smiled, "There is no way to hide one's hand, life is forced, life is forced, I just learned it recently, and I don't have that condition in school!"

"It doesn't matter, Yunqian, I don't mind if I try it first!"

"Haha...you can do whatever you want, anyway, there are no outsiders, you taste it first, I will go to the kitchen to look at the fish."

Steaming fish is actually very simple and quick, and it took about 10 minutes to solve it. I took the fish out and put it on a special fish plate, then poured the steamed hot seasoning on top of the fish, sprinkled green onion, and immediately It is delicious in color, fragrance and taste.

"Yunqian, I really have you. This duck meat is not bad... Well, the sixties are delicious, the tomatoes are also delicious, and the salad is a little spicy... By the way, how is the fish, is it ready?"

"I'm coming!"

Qiqi is simply a foodie, I really didn't realize it before, but I was very happy to hear him say that the taste is not bad, although I don't know if it is true or not.

I don’t know how long it took. We each drank 5 bottles of a case of beer. My head was always dizzy, and my stomach was already full to the point of exploding. I can guarantee that as long as I have another glass of beer, I will throw up immediately.

We talked a lot during the period, about the past, about the past, about the confused future, and about the band members.It turns out that Qiqi is also a nostalgic person, no, or in fact, each of us is quite nostalgic.

Qiqixue’s major is e-commerce, and he’s doing cross-border e-commerce now. Knowing that I’m unemployed, I asked him if I want to do it with him. He said that he can make money. Last month, he made a profit of [-]% in net profit. Wan, I thanked him for his kindness. It's not that I'm not moved by money. After all, I can't even pay the rent now. I can't talk about treating money like dirt. Maybe it's because I want to make a living on my own. Bar!Although I know that Qiqi has no malice, he treats me like a brother, and so do I!
"Come on! Yunqian, after finishing this last bottle, your cooking is really good, do it!"

Qiqi may have drunk it to the fullest, and as soon as the voice finished, he picked up the bottle and blew it up. I couldn't be disappointed. As soon as I took a sip from the bottle, a nauseating feeling rushed up from my stomach. I knew I couldn't do it, so I put it down immediately The bottle ran to the bathroom, yes, I threw up...

"Hahahaha, Yunqian, you can't do it, just broadcast it live..."

"Your uncle, what are you laughing at... I'm not drunk, I'm full of vomit, I can drink for nothing..."

"Just do it, don't be cowardly!"

The plates on the dining table have been swept away, and looking at the empty big bottle of Jiang Xiaobai, my vision is a bit blurred, and Qiqi is not much better, we dare not brag about not being drunk now, Qiqi asked after only a moment of silence.

"Do you still have contact with... Xia Qing...?"

"I haven't contacted you since I graduated..."

I looked at Qiqi with doubts, "Why are you asking me like that all of a sudden?"

"Haha... others don't know, I still can't see it! Yunqian, you boy like Xia Qing... I saw you flirting with each other during rehearsal... It's just... I didn't expect you to not be together, it's a pity..."

Qiqi's words may have touched my heart, and she suddenly became emotional, and said in a drunken inarticulate voice: "I like her, like her voice, like the way she sings, like her temper, I like the coolness of her on stage...but I never confessed to her because I was afraid...afraid that she would reject...afraid that she didn't mean that to me...afraid that once I opened my mouth, the relationship would change... The band will lose a female lead singer... and you will never see her again... Just like Lao Kang and Qin Wen...Qiqi, do you think they have a bad relationship? No, the result? It's not a tragic end...you Why, Qiqi, did you record it? I warn you! If you dare to send it to Xia Qing... I will turn my face and deny anyone."

"Yunqian, don't stop, keep talking, I'm here to help you... Xia Qing will definitely be very touched after reading it... This is the truth after drinking!"

"How dare you...delete it soon...bring the phone...delete it for me..."

I don't know if Qiqi planned it long ago, but I'm really worried that he is recording a video. Xia Qing has signed a company and already has her own new life and new circle. With her excellent conditions, she will definitely be able to play in entertainment in the future There is a place in the circle, but I still don't want to disturb her, because...we are gradually not in the same world with her.

In the end, Qiqi gave me the phone, and I found the video, clicked delete, and was relieved.
