Chapter Eighty-Nine: I Want to Play the Piano Again
Xiao Yao, who had already entered the door, suddenly walked out again, and raised his eyes to look at the restaurant sign that he hadn't noticed before entering the door just now. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sure enough, "leprefrancias" is exactly the same name as the French restaurant where Xiao Yao played the piano for Ye Jiaying. Isn't that restaurant still a Michelin star? Is there a chain of Michelin restaurants?
Anyway, in the previous life, this seemed to be impossible, but Xiao Yao didn't know much about this world. Of course, it is also possible that the restaurant moved from Yanjing to New York, using the exact same layout and furnishings as before, after all, Xiao Yao has not been to that store for three years after that time.
Shaking his head, Xiao Yao entered the restaurant again.
The three people who had already entered the restaurant and the waiter who greeted him to inquire were all stunned by Xiao Yao's sudden move, and when the three people with puzzled faces just reacted and wanted to chase out to see Xiao Yao, they didn't expect Xiao Yao to just stand at the door and glance at the signboard, and then pushed the door in by himself.
"Any questions?" asked Betty.
"When I came in just now, I was surprised to see the layout and furnishings here, because I had eaten in a restaurant in Yanjing, Huaxia, which had exactly the same layout and furnishings as here, so I went out to look at the name of the restaurant, and it turned out that the name of the restaurant was exactly the same. However, the time in Yanjing was three years ago, and I haven't been there since. Xiao Yao explained.
"It seems that the restaurant has been open for less than two years. Betty thought for a moment.
The conversation between the two was in English, and the waiter on the side naturally understood it, so he interjected at the right time to explain everyone's confusion: "Our boss did once open an identical restaurant in Huaxia. Later, due to some personal reasons, he had to leave Huaxia and come to the United States, so he closed the original restaurant in Huaxia and reopened this restaurant here. According to our manager, the name and layout of the restaurant are exactly the same as the one in Huaxia. ”
"I see," Betty laughed, "it seems that the place I chose is really good, it is actually an old acquaintance of the young people." ”
"Yes, I'm sure this little gentleman will have the same pleasant dining experience in our dining room as he did three years ago, Ms. Bellet, please go this way. The waiter said at the right time, a few people had been standing at the door for a while, and he had to lead the people to the reserved seats.
Even if they are on an ordinary trip, the clothes on the three models are also full of fashion. Even if Betty was not a member of the restaurant and did not make a reservation, it was impossible for the waiter to lead the four of them to a remote corner like Xiao Yao experienced three years ago. So at least from the seat, Xiao Yao's dining experience this time is better than last time.
The four of them sat down, and the waiter brought the menu, this time Xiao Yao did not hand over the power of ordering to others like last time, but ordered the meal he wanted to eat. After that time, Xiao Yao also learned a little about Western food. Three years have passed, Xiao Yao no longer knows anything about Western food as he did at the beginning, there is no barrier to language and writing, and of course he will come by himself to order food.
After the ordering, the time to wait for the food to be served is naturally chatting. The first to speak was the most lively Yin Xi, and the object was naturally Xiao Yao.
"You seemed to be only seven years old three years ago, and you had dinner at a Michelin-starred restaurant at that time?" Yin Xi said enviously: "Did your father take you there?" Yin Xi's background is not rich, when she was seven years old, she was still helping the family watch the fruit stall in addition to school, until she was discovered by a talent scout in her teens and embarked on the road of modeling, and the situation at home was improved. However, the previous ten years of experience in the stall have also created her good physical fitness and lively personality.
"No, it was my stepmother who took me to the restaurant that time, but she was only my teacher at the time, in fact, strictly speaking, she was not my teacher, I was not in her class, she was the teacher in the class next door to me. Xiao Yao smiled.
"Ye Jiaying? She also worked as an elementary school teacher, and wasn't she just after three years ago?" Yin Xi was even more curious.
What happened back then was not a secret, and it seemed that someone had uploaded the video of him playing in the restaurant to the Internet at that time, anyway, the serving time was relatively slow, Xiao Yao simply told Yin Xi about his acquaintance with Ye Jiaying and his experience in the restaurant.
Because Betty was there, both of them spoke English, but Betty still didn't understand it. Qin Qingyang didn't participate in the conversation between the two, and seeing Betty's puzzled face, he helped explain: "The Ye Jiaying they are talking about is Xiao's stepmother, and she is a very famous actress in our country. His biological mother died in a car accident when he was just over three years old. And his father is a famous singer-songwriter and producer in China.
Shaw's father and stepmother got married two years ago, and Shaw claimed to be the introducer for his father and stepmother at the wedding, and he was the one who brokered their marriage. He played the piano and sang as wedding gifts for his father and stepmother, and later played the harmonica in another song from the wedding.
In addition, he has also played three other musical instruments on Chinese TV shows, namely the ocarina, the ukulele and a traditional Chinese instrument called the erhu. In addition, his grandfather is also a very respected performing artist in China, and he himself played the second male lead in the drama of a very famous and talented director in China two years ago, and his performance level has also been unanimously praised in the Chinese entertainment industry.
He is a genius boy who can sing, play musical instruments, and act in China, so some people call him a demon, but he still doesn't know that he has the identity of a photographer. Now in Huaxia, I'm afraid that there are not many people in China who know that YS is him. That's all we know about Young. ”
Qin Qingyang originally helped Betty explain Ye Jiaying, but as soon as he spoke, he couldn't stop, so he simply poured all the information that the two of them learned about Xiao Yao to Betty. Betty also listened to the more her mouth opened wider, and the eyes that looked at Xiao Yao became more and more incredible.
After finally listening to Qin Qingyang's explanation, Betty thought of a question and asked, "If he is really as powerful as you say, then he should be very famous in your country, so why didn't the two of you seem to recognize him at the beginning?"
Qin Qingyang thought for a while, and then said: "The wedding of his father and stepmother was not authorized by the media to do official live broadcasts and reports, and his performance at the wedding can only be seen from the text description circulated among the guests, some of the paparazzi's secretly taken photos and some of the guests' private videos recorded on their mobile phones, and the clarity is not very good."
Drama is also a niche art form in our country, and it is not valued by the media, so he performed ten performances, and the audience was only two or three thousand people in total. He really made a public appearance in the media on two TV variety shows five years ago, when he was most famous in the public eye, but at that time, everyone on the show usually called him by his nickname, and everyone was not too sensitive to his name, and now in the past five years, his body and appearance have changed, so we didn't recognize him at first.
If he hadn't told us his father's name today, it would have been hard for us to think that he was the genius who was very popular in our country five years ago, and then in the afternoon we took the time to call our friends in China to find out, fortunately, we both have good friends who know a lot about the industry in the music and entertainment circles in China, so we can know so in detail. Although he is not very well-known among the media public, he is still very famous in the industry. ”
Betty nodded and smiled, "I see, it seems that your paparazzi in Huaxia are still not as powerful as our country." If there was such a genius in the second generation of stars in our country, I am afraid that it would have been hyped by the media long ago. ”
At this time, the meals ordered by the four of them also came up one after another. The three beauties picked up the knife and fork and prepared to start, but Xiao Yao didn't move, just looked at Qin Qingyang with a smile.
Qin Qingyang was slightly startled, looked at Xiao Yao cautiously and said, "That, am I talking too much?"
You've said it's all over, is it still meaningful to ask this now? But Xiao Yao still admires the network resources of the two of them. is in the modeling circle, but he can understand his things in both music and acting circles so clearly.
Xiao Yao smiled, raised a finger and said to Qin Qingyang: "Just one request, these things, please don't say them to the media, especially the domestic media." I don't want to be like some second-generation stars in the United States, with paparazzi following me when I go out. At least, not until I'm officially an adult. ”
"Of course, I promise!" Qin Qingyang said immediately.
Xiao Yao looked at Yin Xi again. Unexpectedly, Yin Xi was not as buying as Qin Qingyang, and his eyes widened: "Why listen to you?"
"Huh?" Xiao Yao was stunned. But think about it, why do people have to keep it a secret for you?
However, Yin Xi changed his words and said: "However, it is not impossible to promise you, but you also have to agree to a request from me." ”
"Do you want me not to take your photos tomorrow or do you want to take more photos of you? Xiao Yao said directly. If you don't shoot, you are naturally afraid of losing face, but in Yin Xi's situation, it is not a bad thing to have more harmless photos, at least it can give people more impressions and increase the chance of coming to Eva's show again next year.
"Cut~ I don't care about that. Whether you can shoot it, and how much you can shoot, depends on your own ability. Yin Xi pursed his lips, looked at Xiao Yao and said, "You said that you once played the piano for Ye Jiaying in this restaurant in Yanjing, how about playing a song for us here now?"
Betty's eyes lit up, and she said expectantly, "I agree." Qin Qingyang said him so badly, of course Betty wanted to see it for thought.
"I played it to my mom. Xiao Yao said.
"First of all, Ye Jiaying was not your mother at that time, so you don't talk about this. Yin Xi pointed up his fingers one by one and said, "Second, Betty kindly invited you to dinner, and you played a tune for her on the spot, which can be regarded as your expression of gratitude to others." Third, Betty just became a mother three months ago, and according to traditional Chinese etiquette, you should also congratulate others, and playing a song is considered your congratulatory gift. ”
Betty smiled at Yin Xi's words, and said to Yin Xi: "Yin, I like you." ”
"OK, OK," Xiao Yao raised his hand to make a surrender form, "I promise." But I'll have to wait until I'm done eating first. I haven't touched my food yet, you can't let me go hungry to play the piano, that will affect my performance. ”
"Okay, then you can eat it. Yin Xi looked proud of your acquaintance, and began to move on to his meal.
Betty smiled and raised her hand to signal, and immediately a waiter came over, stood beside Betty and bent down slightly, "Do you have any instructions?"
Betty stretched out her head and whispered a few words in the waiter's ear, and the waiter glanced at Xiao Yao in surprise, then nodded, turned around and walked away, obviously greeting the pianist in advance.
