Waltz in A minor 1.01
In this bustling coastal city, the blues bar is far from spectacular, but the row of luxury cars parked in front of it all year round is enough to prove its style. It is also a place where the sons and brothers who come out day and night are having fun, and the people in the audience are playing the piano, which obviously sounds more well-dressed and dignified than beating the drums.
Even the waitress in charge of serving wine in the bar looks far more delicate and beautiful than other places.
Lu Heng opened the wine he had just brought over and poured it for the other people on the table. Everyone picked up their cups and said a few words, and one of them looked obviously absent-minded, and his eyes frequently glanced at the waitress who had gradually walked away.
Lu Heng smiled in his heart and winked at the other party meaningfully: "What's the matter, Chen Shao, have you fallen in love with that blue-eyed foreign girl?" Not to mention, that arrogant coldness is really delicious. โ
Chen Shao came back to his senses, took a sip of wine quietly as a tacit, and glanced in the direction where the waitress had left. On the dance floor in the hall on the first floor, several pairs of men and women are dancing a waltz to the melodious sound of the piano, breathing close to each other between the clothes and sideburns, hunting in both directions, and flirting with the ambiguity of nothingness. The figure of the blue-eyed beauty had disappeared into the crowd and was completely nowhere to be found.
Chen Shao retracted his gaze with some pity, and finally looked at Lu Heng squarely: "Raw face, new here?" โ
"But isn't it, I heard that less than a month after I arrived, a veritable cold beauty, many people who want to try it have come back with a nose of ash, and they haven't even touched the corners of their clothes." Lu Heng couldn't say whether he was sneering or joking, he smacked his lips disapprerovingly, and when he turned to Chen Shao, he had an obvious warm face, "This little beauty must be waiting for Chen Shao, women, it's good to be reserved, so that you can have a sense of accomplishment when you conquer it, right?" โ
Chen Shao shook the glass with a smile, without echoing or refutating. Lu Heng observed his words, and immediately summoned a waiter very cleverly: "Give us two more bottles of royal salute, and let that blue-eyed little beauty bring it over." โ
The waiter respectfully complied, and after a while, sure enough, he saw the girl carrying a tray through the crowd and coming over with a tray. Their table was next to the piano player, and it was a special seat for people with vassal elegance to go up and play the piano, which came in handy. When the waitress stood still at their table, Lu Heng got up slightly and casually ordered the person who was playing the piano next to him: "This song is too hypnotic, change it to a light and sweet song." โ
He waited carelessly for a few seconds, and when he saw that the other party did not react at all, he raised his head in some surprise.
Ji Qianyu took the tray and stood on the side, raised his eyes calmly, and looked over with Lu Heng and the others.
The pianist lowered his eyes and played the music quietly and intently, his movements unhurried and methodical, and the flowing music poured out from the black and white keys and slender and powerful hands. The glow of the chandelier shone evenly and softly above his head, coating the piano's lacquer with a luxurious dark color, covering half of his intently side face, giving birth to countless lows and graces.
As if he had turned a deaf ear to all the sounds of the outside world, and was unaware of such a burning gaze, he only lowered his head and quietly played his "Waltz in A minor".
Although this piece was born as a lyrical aria, it is always played with the lightness and rhythm of dance music, and usually does not seem heavy. But under the hands of this young man, the repeated arias are stretched, but they seem clear and clear, and they are not too lingering, creating a space that is more suitable for intimate conversations.
I'm afraid it is also the root of Lu Heng's feeling of hypnosis.
was disgraced by an insignificant piano hand, Lu Heng was stunned and suddenly became angry after coming back to his senses. He lowered his face coldly, staring at the pianist's gaze with a cold light: "I don't know if it's lifting, believe it or not, I can let you go right away with a word-"
He was getting angry when a cold English suddenly floated over him.
"Sir, please stop being angry, my colleague is just too focused on his job, please don't care."
Several sons and brothers didn't react at first, and after finding out that it was the waitress who was talking, they were immediately interested. Lu Heng didn't care about competing with the inconsequential piano player, and gave Chen Shao a knowing look, and stretched out his hand to pull Ji Qianyu's arm: "Can you speak Chinese?" Today, we Chen Shao are here to appreciate the light, shouldn't your bar show some hospitality and send someone to give us Chen Shao a toast - I think you're good, come and ......
What he didn't expect was that he was actually disgraced for the second time today. The little blue-eyed beauty gently avoided his hand, bowed slightly to them, and then turned around, as if she had not understood him, and was about to leave.
How does this work?! Chen Shao and a few buddies on the side were still watching, Lu Heng felt that his face was dull, and he scolded and went to hug the little beauty's waist: ", what is it?!" Shameless for your face, Chen Shao took a fancy to you as your blessing, I originally wanted you to drink a glass of wine and leave, but now there is no such good thing, obediently stay with us Chen Shao for one night, I will treat tonight's matter as ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the beauty turn around suddenly, dodging his hand around his waist just right, and instead of retreating, she walked back to their table in a few steps.
Is this figured out? Lu Heng was overjoyed in his heart, and his face became more and more disdainful, sure enough, it was no different from other people, what a cold beauty, not just obedient......
He was halfway through his thoughts when he was suddenly interrupted by a splash of shards of glass. Lu Heng was startled, hurriedly leaned back to avoid the scattered broken glass, and together with the others, looked at the waitress who had gone and returned angrily. The blue-eyed beauty held half of the sharp wine bottle that had just been smashed on the table, shook the little wine left at the bottom of the bottle, and looked at them coldly.
"Keep your mouth clean." She said lightly, her blue eyes were not shocked, and the Chinese characters she opened her mouth were round, "Don't you want to drink, why do you drink it?" โ
โโ
Such a shocking move caused a certain amount of confusion. Fortunately, with a blues style, it can still cope with such a small riot. Chu Ming, the owner of the bar, came forward in person, handled the whole matter politely and tactfully, reluctantly coaxed away the annoyed Lu Heng and Chen Shao, who looked uncertain, turned his head quietly when he gave it away, and sternly threw a cold look at Ji Qianyu, and the meaning of settling the general account after the closure was clearly and obviously.
Ji Qianyu smiled back at him fearlessly, and said five words silently with his mouth.
Selling your art is not selling your body.
In the following business hours, she regained a cold and indifferent expression, and continued to pretend to be Chinese blind and half dumb as if no one was around, but this time the eyes that fell on her were much more scrutinized. Ji Qianyu shuttled through the crowd with a tray without squinting, and his heart was calm.
Whatever, Ji Qianyu thought lightly, anyway, he would definitely have to change jobs again.
Sure enough, after closing for proofing at three o'clock in the morning, the employees of the bar stood in a row in front of Chu Ming, and Chu Ming only stared at her alone.
"Ji Qianyu." He called her name, his face half angry and half helpless, "Do you calculate how much chaos you have caused to the bar since you went to work, and how many things have you caused in less than a month?" I hired you because you had a good face, but can you act with more than just your face and no brains? Can you die if you take a step back and endure a little? โ
"I can't die." Ji Qianyu looked straight ahead, and replied calmly and geographically, "But if it also includes other businesses such as the โกโก of forbearance, the salary is too low now, and I don't trade at a loss." โ
"Okay, you don't look down on this yet." Chu Ming didn't laugh angrily, paced back and forth a few steps back and forth a little irritably, and suddenly stopped to look at her, "The blues temple can't tolerate you, Ji Qianyu, you settled this month's salary, and compensated for the loss of today's bar, so let's find another job." โ
This should be the result of horizontal and vertical, which has long been expected. Ji Qianyu nodded, didn't say anything, went to the locker room to change out of his work clothes and stay at the bar. She spent a lot of time going back and forth, and when she came out after changing her clothes, there was no one outside, and the employees were scattered, leaving only Chu Ming still leaning on the bar to give herself a good breath, and the pianist sat in front of the piano, carefully wiping his piano.
When Chu Ming saw her come out, he straightened up slightly and handed her a bottle of wine: "The wine that Chen Shao ordered at the table is one of the losses of the bar today, you have already lost the money for this bottle, and now it belongs to you." โ
Ji Qianyu took the unopened wine bottle and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "It's not opened yet, boss, can't you put it back again?" โ
"Selling a bottle is a bottle." Chu Ming shrugged noncommittally, and the temperament of a profiteer was unobstructed. Ji Qianyu just talked, she didn't have any other thoughts, she shook her head, took out a corkscrew from the bar, took off the cork of red wine, and poured a glass for Chu Ming.
"Thank you boss for taking care of you this month, I'm sorry to cause you a lot of trouble." Ji Qianyu raised his glass to him, Chu Ming waved his hand, drank the red wine in two sips very unobtrusively, looked at her, and finally sighed.
"When you fall, you have to learn to be soft." He said, "You're too stubborn, and sooner or later you're going to suffer a big loss." โ
"Promise your good words." Ji Qianyu smiled, hesitated, took out a glass bottle, poured the rest of the red wine into it, a full glass, and the wine trembled when it was served.
She walked straight to the pianist with her glass in hand.
"Thank you for helping me just now, Waltz in A minor is almost over there, thank you for playing it again." She said, raising her glass in her hand.
"There is kindness and revenge, and there is nothing I can do now, I invite you with this glass of wine."
