Chapter 119, English Rose
When Wang Jiao went home, she also came over to say goodbye to Canglong, saying that she would bring him some souvenirs when she went back, and Canglong joked: "Are you blatantly bribing?"
But Wang Jiao nodded and said, "I'm just blatantly bribing."
Canglong was helpless, and finally thought of something and said: "You go out to the school gate and wait for me to let someone drive you to go early and return early."
"Drive me," Wang Jiao was puzzled, "we have a mountainous road, potholes, and ordinary cars can't get in at all, so I'd better take the bus back."
"Doesn't this make you raise your eyebrows once," Canglong said again, "and it's my car, and it's nothing on the potholed mountain road."
"Really" Wang Jiao has naturally seen Canglong's domineering Kai Baihe, but Canglong has never been to school
"Go ahead, I'll let them wait for you at the school gate," Canglong said, picked up the phone, dialed a number, and asked Manager Niu to find a few old drivers, and by the way, take a few people back with Wang Jiao
"Teacher Cang is so good," after speaking, Wang Jiao left again, and the surrounding teachers frowned when they heard this, but Canglong ignored it
The reason why she arranged for someone to go to Canglong with Wang Jiao was because she was afraid that something would happen, Wang Jiao might not know how critical her mother and younger brother were, thinking that the matter at the bar was so settled, but in fact, this was just the beginning
Wang Jiao's departure will not delay the performance of Class 9, because she is doing behind-the-scenes planning work and is not in front of the stage, but Yi Xiaochuan is just a little more fortunate
After a day's work, Canglong came to the rehearsal site of Class 9 again, and saw that they practiced soundly, and Canglong seemed to be very satisfied
"It's really strange," Sun Liping felt a little strange as she listened to their performance, because it was so difficult to rehearse for this effect in such a short time
"It's not surprising that they want to do it and are willing to do it, and there is nothing to do with each other, and it's not surprising that there is such an effect," Canglong took it for granted
"Do you think our class can win the first place," Sun Liping said suddenly, "Those judges will definitely deliberately lower the results of our ninth class, and the content of our performance seems to be different from the theme of this art show, what they want is to sing praises."
"No, we don't need the first in name, we need the first in our hearts," Canglong finished speaking and left the auditorium
Sun Liping chewed this sentence, but she was puzzled, tomorrow is the New Year's Day art show, the city leaders will come to the first middle school, so the school attaches great importance to this art show, and the rehearsals and program selection of all people's classes have also been standardized, most of the class programs have been canceled, because it may cause discomfort to the city leaders, most of the selected programs are in line with the tradition and some products since the founding of China
"What is the first in my heart," Sun Liping said and chased after him, but Canglong replied directly, and let Sun Liping jump to his feet and want to scold
The next day, the whole No. 1 Middle School was filled with the atmosphere of New Year's Day, because after a day of art performances, there will be a holiday tomorrow, although it is only three days, but it is also a rare but long-lost holiday for students
At about 9 o'clock in the morning, the students entered the auditorium, and the performers were busy backstage, and with the arrival of the parents, the students also quieted down
Later, at half past nine, the car of the city leaders arrived, and what was surprising was that this time it was not only the director of the education bureau who came to the No. 1 Middle School to watch the performance, but also the secretary of the municipal party committee, Yu
The school leaders immediately went to greet them, arranged them all to the front position, and notified the teachers of each class to sternly tell the students not to make any mess, if the city leaders were uncomfortable, which class of students had problems, which class teacher's year-end performance would be lost
"Are you confident?" Canglong did not sit in the teacher's seat, but found a place next to Class 9
The atmosphere became more and more tense with the arrival of city leaders and parents, especially the backstage rehearsals for the students who were about to appear
"Yes," Class 9 collectively replied
"It doesn't matter if you don't get the first place, it's important that you understand what this performance is for, just do your best," Canglong said
Hearing this, the people in Class 9 all nodded, and the originally tense atmosphere in their hearts was much more comfortable
As the performance began, everyone quieted down, for the students, this kind of art show was boring, even a little tired, because they grew up in the school to see the art show like this, they were more looking forward to the end of the show, and then the school announced that the holiday would be immediately closed, and then leave the school to play for a few days
The school has arranged a total of 10 judges, each of whom has a scorecard, and each class will raise a card after the performance, with a total score of 100 points
After the first-year students finished the performance, the highest score was 98 points in the 10th class, and the subjects they chose were all liked by the leaders, and the students had no choice but to applaud and watch honestly
After the performance of the first year of high school, it will be the second year of high school, and the students of the ninth class have long watched it and want to sleep, and some people keep asking for leave to go to the toilet, but they just want to breathe
Even Canglong felt a little bored, and at this moment, his phone suddenly rang, and when he picked up the phone, he found that it was not a Chinese number, but an unfamiliar number from abroad
Walking outside, Canglong pressed the answer button, and then a familiar female voice immediately came from the phone: "Doctor Cang, guess where I am now"
"China" heard Miss Kate's voice, and Canglong was relieved
"How do you know" Miss Kate wondered
But Canglong just smiled and didn't answer, Kate is an enthusiastic girl, and she is also a girl who likes to surprise people, because every time she used to go to his clinic, she would come quietly, and Canglong would not be surprised every time, but Miss Kate would ask every time, "How did you know I was coming?"
"Is it in Hong Kong" Canglong wondered
"No, you'll never guess where I am this time," Miss Kate stumbled
"You're here in Dongning," Canglong was a little surprised
"Oh, I can't hide anything, what do you say in Chinese, my surprise is ruined again," Miss Kate sighed
"Where's your husband?" Canglong asked with joy in his heart
"He's in Hong Kong, and I'm here alone," Miss Kate seemed to remind Canglong of something
"Hehe" Canglong smiled and just said, "How long will it take to get to me?"
"I just got off the plane, and about an hour or so, you Chinese reporters are crazy, if they knew I was coming to the mainland, they would definitely chase me, and tomorrow there would definitely be another international news," Miss Kate grumbled, a little worried
"You're not afraid of danger when you come alone," Canglong wondered, because every time Kate went to her clinic, she would bring four or five bodyguards
"I still remember the first time I went to your clinic and you single-handedly knocked out all my bodyguards," Miss Kate recalled
"You call me when you get to No. 1 Middle School, I'll go out to pick you up," Canglong said
As expected, there were a few more complaints on the other side of the phone, saying that Canglong didn't care too much about her, a Hollywood superstar, but this was limited to complaints
Until one hour Canglong didn't receive a call from Kate, so he took the initiative to call, and finally Kate told her that he didn't pay for the taxi, and from the noisy quarrel on the phone, Canglong heard the conversation between the taxi driver and Kate who didn't understand the language
So Canglong hurriedly left the auditorium and went to pick up the Hollywood superstar Sun Liping at the school gate, and strangely followed
When Canglong came to the school gate and saw Kate again, he couldn't even believe that the reason she was arguing with the driver was that she didn't have RMB
She gave the driver Hong Kong dollars and US dollars, but the driver did not accept it, because the driver was worried that the foreign woman would be a liar, and Kate was a maverick woman, so she quarreled with the driver, although the two did not understand the language, and from the body movements, both seemed to understand what the other was saying
Who would have imagined that this stubborn foreign woman could be the world-famous British Rose, and the driver didn't even know that he was arguing with an international superstar over a particular conflict
If it weren't for Canglong's arrival, the driver even wanted to pull this foreign woman back to the airport, after giving the money, Canglong looked at her carefully, but found that she was no longer the beautiful Rose who played the Titanic, and the years left marks on her face, Canglong could see that she had not made up makeup
However, it is also very much in line with Kate's xìng character, in her own words, she has always been showing her true self, and will never change that
And Canglong likes her very much, whether it is her creamy skin, her strawberry-like bright red lips, her long curled thick hair, her blue eyes like seawater, the retro beauty like an oil painting, and the incomparable sense of xìng revealed in every pore on her body, she will never change in Canglong's eyes
And when the driver left, he glanced at Kate and said: "Foreign women are really more troublesome than Chinese women"
If this sentence is known by the media on another occasion, it is estimated that this driver will be really famous, but in the eyes of this driver, Kate is an ordinary foreign woman
"Chinese taxi drivers are really bad," Kate complained to Canglong, "Dr. Cang is getting younger and younger, but in your eyes, this enthusiastic girl is almost too old to walk"
"In my eyes, you will always be that passionate girl," Canglong said with a smile, "There is a saying in China that people are old and their hearts are not old, and many people have a young appearance, but their hearts are already in the twilight."
"Dr. Cang is always so liked," Kate smiled, although there were traces of time, she still had the charm and her smile was still so charming
"Let's go in," Canglong said, helping Kate pick up her bag and say a few words to the doorman, and then walked into No. 1 Middle School with Kate
"Could this be Mr. Cang's mother," the doorman muttered to himself after the two left, although Kate is still very charming, but her external age looks like she is at least in her thirties, and Canglong grew up abroad, so it is normal to have a French mother, "But it's not right, being a mother in your thirties, is it still so familiar to be a stepmother?"
