In the process of drinking and toasting, Lu Tao found that Lin Susu seemed to have been in a sullen and preoccupied state, even if he sometimes had to laugh with everyone, but the smile was very reluctant, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it with the words "forced smile". Moreover, she often glanced at Lu Tao intentionally or unintentionally, but as long as Lu Tao also looked at her, she would look away in a panic and quickly, as if she had done something wrong, which made Lu Tao inexplicable and couldn't figure out what she was thinking......

When the banquet was coming to an end, Lin Hua was already a little drunk, and his courage was also bigger, he looked at Du Xiaoyu sideways, and asked with a smile: "Xiaoyu, is your WeChat ID a mobile phone number? Can I add your WeChat friends?" I only know your phone number now, and I still asked from Mr. Liang, but if I call you directly, I am afraid that it will affect your work and rest, and second, I am embarrassed to say some words on the phone, but I can say it when chatting on WeChat, and I don't need to be embarrassed, right?" ”

Du Xiaoyu smiled and said: "Section Chief Lin, I'm sorry, I'm a person who doesn't have much interest in life, my social circle is also very narrow, I have few WeChat friends, and I usually have close friends or colleagues who have more work contacts, and I rarely chat with friends on WeChat." With all due respect, today you and I are meeting for the first time, and it is not a good friend, you are chatting with me, and it is estimated that there is no topic to talk about, so for the time being, we still do not add WeChat friends, we will communicate more in the future, we know each other very well, and there are more common topics, so add WeChat to each other!"

Lin Hua actually expected that Du Xiaoyu would definitely not let him add her WeChat today, and the proposal just now was just hoping for a miracle, so he didn't care much about her refusal, nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, then we'll add WeChat in the future." ”

When everyone had finished drinking and eating, Lin Hua asked Du Xiaoyu in a hopeless tone: "Xiaoyu, can you enjoy the light and sing a song or drink tea together at night?"

Du Xiaoyu quickly glanced at Lu Tao opposite, hesitated, and asked, "Who are going to sing?" Here Mr. Liang and Sister Su Su are going to perform, are the three of us going to sing?"

Lu Tao knew that Lin Hua wanted to invite Du Xiaoyu out to play alone, so he hurriedly said: "Section Chief Lin, I'm sorry, I'll go back to the hotel to discuss something with the two leaders of our Taolin Finance Bureau, I can't go singing with you, I'm sorry!"

As soon as Du Xiaoyu heard that Lu Tao was not going, he immediately shook his head and said: "I won't sing if there are two people, and besides, I was going to go to Yaqin Performing Arts Bar to perform a show, so I'd better go with Mr. Liang and Sister Susu!"

Lin Hua saw that she seemed to be a little interested in singing, but she felt that it was a little embarrassing for the two of them to sing, and there was no atmosphere, so she didn't want to go, so she couldn't help but feel ecstatic in her heart, and hurriedly ran over and grabbed Lu Tao's hand, and said in a begging tone: "Brother Lu, you can accompany us to sing a song, it can be regarded as a favor for me! You and the leaders of your county finance bureau will have time to discuss it tomorrow, and you must not be in a hurry, right?"

Liang Fatzi also persuaded Lu Tao: "Mr. Lu, Su Su and I are the boss and host of the performing arts bar, and the other is the pillar of the Peking Opera program, so we can't be absent, so I can't accompany Section Chief Lin and Xiaoyu to sing, but you are coming to the provincial capital on a business trip, and it is impossible to do anything at night, it's a big deal to talk to the two leaders of the Finance Bureau, ask for a leave, and discuss something tomorrow, or accompany Section Chief Lin and Xiaoyu to sing!"

Speaking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Lin Susu, who was silent, and said, "I have discussed with Su Su, after the show closes tonight, I must invite you to have a supper." We have a few colleagues in the entertainment bar, I saw with my own eyes the night before yesterday that you went on stage to teach Min Shao and his group, and admired your chivalrous courage and strong martial arts, and they all said that they would find a chance to toast you with a few glasses of wine and express their admiration, tonight is a good opportunity, I will call them all over when the time comes, and we will have a lively drink!"

As he spoke, he turned his eyes to Lin Hua and Du Xiaoyu again: "Section Chief Lin, Xiaoyu, after you finish singing, you must go to have supper with Mr. Lu, I have a treat, and I will send a message to tell you later." ”

Lu Tao thought that Du Xiaoyu would refuse to sing again, but after meditating for a while, she said: "If there are more than three people, I can sing and sing, but supper will be free, first, I rarely eat supper, for fear of getting fat; second, I have to go to class at eight o'clock tomorrow, and I can't sleep too late, and the performing arts bar will not close until at least half past eleven, and if I eat supper, I will definitely eat until two or three o'clock in the morning, I can't bear it!"

Lin Hua heard her promise to sing, as if hearing the sound of heaven, so happy that she woke up most of the wine, for fear that if Liang Fatzi invited her to eat supper again, she wouldn't even sing the song, and hurriedly shook her hand to Liang Fatzi and said: "Mr. Liang, most ladies don't like to eat supper, so don't force Xiaoyu." Besides, I'm not used to drinking in the middle of the night, and I rarely eat supper. Why don't you invite Brother Lu to eat, and I'll send Xiaoyu home after I finish singing, okay?"

Liang Fatzi knew his urgency at the moment, nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, you and Xiaoyu will go back after singing!" Mr. Lu, you can't miss the appointment, I will invite you to drink beer and eat barbecue with Su Su and the brothers who worship you in the performing arts bar, let us express our gratitude and admiration to you together!"

Although Lu Tao is open-minded and not a person who likes vanity, at this moment, when he heard Liang Fatzi say that they have a few brothers who worship him very much, he still feels a little proud and glorious in his heart, so he agreed: "Okay, I'll get drunk tonight and have a good drink with Mr. Liang, Miss Su Su and your brothers!"

Because everyone present drank alcohol, Liang Fatzi called two substitute drivers, asked one of them to drive Lin Hua's car, and sent the three of them to the "Dream Nanjiang" KTV to sing, and the other substitute driver drove his car to send him and Lin Susu to Yaqin to perform......

After arriving at the box of the "Dream Nanjiang" KTV, Lu Tao took advantage of Du Xiaoyu's time to wash his hands and touch up his makeup in the bathroom, and whispered to Lin Hua: "Section Chief Lin, if you want Xiaoyu to sing happily tonight, it's best to call a few more friends to come over and sing together, classmates and colleagues can do it." ”

Lin Hua asked in surprise, "Why?"

Lu Tao said thoughtfully: "This has two advantages: first, Xiaoyu is engaged in art, and her singing is already very powerful, and she often goes to Yaqin Performing Arts Bar to perform programs, and she must be used to the cheers and applause of the audience after singing." But if it's just the two of us applauding, it's obviously going to make her feel unaccustomed and uncomfortable, and maybe she'll not be interested in singing a few songs—"

Lin Hua patted his head and said, "Yes, it's true." Not to mention a professional singer like Xiaoyu, it's me, an amateur singer who sings in a song hall, if there are fewer people, I will feel bored, no wonder she just resolutely didn't sing with me alone, I guess this is also a very important reason. ”
