Chapter 31: Dilemma

After resting enough, the three of them began to study again until about seven o'clock, when they were hungry and could not do so, so they stopped and prepared to forage for food.

Lan Xiaoxi saw that Fang Xiao had picked up his guitar when he went out, and asked, "After eating, don't you continue?" ”

"I've made an appointment to go to the Twilight Bar." Fang Xiao explained: "It's not too early now, you go eat yours, I'll buy a burger at the subway station, and I'll go straight over." ”

Hearing this, Xu Yan hesitated slightly, turned around and picked up the music book with the research results of the three of them, and said, "I'll go to the Twilight Bar with you." Xiaoxi, you can go too, we may have to perform there in the future, let's get acquainted with the environment first. ”

When Lan Xiaoxi heard this, she also picked up her electric guitar.

"You don't need to bring musical instruments, there's everything over there." Fang Xiao stopped her and said, "I carry the guitar because I want to use it tomorrow, and I am too lazy to run here to get it, not tonight." ”

Lan Xiaoxi went to look at the permission again, and when she saw her nodding, she put down the electric guitar.

Tsk, this charm is really a killing for both men and women......

Under the guidance of Xu Xu, the three found a noodle restaurant with a very clean environment, ate a large bowl of noodles each, and then drove to Tsim Sha Tsui.

The three of them had a lot of energy and saliva in the afternoon, they were all a little tired at the moment, they didn't talk much along the way, they didn't turn on the stereo, they were allowed to concentrate on driving, Lan Xiaoxi looked out the window in a daze, and Fang Xiao sat in the back row, holding his round belly and closing his eyes to recuperate.

The weather is very good, the night is very beautiful, the road is jammed and sparse, the speed is fast and slow, the evening breeze blows through the open window, blowing the silent three people, making the car permeated with a strange atmosphere, some warm, some melancholy, some quiet, some lonely......

When I arrived at Tsim Sha Tsui, it was almost half past eight, and after parking the car, I handed the music sheet to Fang Xiao and said, "I'll take Xiaoxi to the bar first, you go to the graphic club over there, make a copy of this, I'll show it to a master later, and ask him for guidance." ”

Fang Xiao had seen the level of the rich old men in the bar last time, and knew that they were very powerful, so he took the music score, parted ways at the gate of the parking lot, and went to the graphic club.

After the photocopying was finished, when he rushed to the bar, Fang Xiao found that there was a sign at the door that said "Stop when it is full", but he was not a customer, but a reserve employee, so it didn't matter, he directly pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Qiao Yadan wearing the uniform of a bar waiter, standing on the stage and singing, with Uncle Bao's old guys accompanying him in the back.

Fang Xiaoyou looked around and saw Xu Xu and Lan Xiaoxi sitting at a table in the corner, so he walked over, listening as he walked, and when he sat down, he was already very surprised in his heart.

Qiao Yadan sang an English song, Fang Xiao had never heard it, but she could feel that the original work should be a jazz-style song, but she used her voice to sing folk songs, which had a very special taste.

The person who adapted this song is definitely a master......

Qiao Yadan's voice is like a cup of strong tea, but it is not a literati tea like Longjing or Biluochun, but a coarse tea in the mountains, with a heavy taste, strong strength, rough and pure, with a kind of undisguised wildness and vitality, this kind of singing voice is suitable for singing folk songs, not suitable for singing jazz, because the voice of singing jazz should be like coffee, mellow and fragrant, smooth and introverted, and the two are inherently incompatible.

But now this song has both the smoothness of coffee and the fragrance of coarse tea, blending jazz and folk songs, which is very special, very nice and refreshing.

The patrons of the bar obviously liked it too, not a single one of them chatted and spoke, they were all listening intently, and when the last note disappeared, the audience burst into a neat round of applause, not loud or enthusiastic, but full of appreciation - most of the customers in this bar are middle class in their thirties and forties, mature and steady, gentle and reserved is their hallmark.

The three of them also applauded, and Lan Xiaoxi praised: "It's well made." ”

Fang Xiaozheng wanted to comment on a few sentences, but heard a woman on the table in front of them say in a disdainful tone: "What kind of thing is singing, it is not Chinese, it is dirty, and there are still people applauding her!" Boss Shen recruited her to be a waiter, she is good, she drills on the stage twice in three days, she is not doing her job, and she is not ashamed! ”

She turned her back to Fang Xiao and couldn't see her appearance, but listening to this voice, it seemed to be that Sister Sasha?

She doesn't go to show, what is she doing here?

Next to Sasha, there was a middle-aged man with a big back comb, and he said with a smile: "I think the singing is okay." ”

"You can be a ghost! You look at how she looks, right? ”

"Hehehe, she's really good-looking, but you don't have a taste like Sasha......"

Before the other waiter came, Qiao Yadan was alone in the bar, and after she finished singing, she jumped off the stage, and began to be busy, not noticing Fang Xiao's arrival.

Xu asked Fang Xiao and Lan Xiaoxi what they wanted, then stood up and went to the bar by himself, while Lan Xiaoxi curiously observed the furnishings of the bar.

After the man laughed with Sasha for a few words, he asked, "This song is adapted by Uncle Bao?" ”

"Who else is it not him?" Sasha said angrily: "He is so fascinated by that little slut that he doesn't know how to know the north, south, south, and northwest, I won't be able to see it for long, and the two of them will live together." ”

"Both of them? No, Uncle Bao is over sixty years old, and that little girl can be his granddaughter. ”

"As long as you have money, there are sluts in your seventies and eighties who are willing to post it upside down." Sasha was disdainful and said: "Uncle Bao's wife has been dead for four or five years, and his sons are all overseas, and he lives alone in the mansion in the middle of the mountain, and that little slut runs over there for three days, what do you say she is going to do?" ”

"How do you know about the Dao?"

"The last time I released a record, I went to Uncle Bao to help arrange the music, and it was only nine o'clock in the morning, and I saw that little slut in his bedroom, folding the quilt, it's really shameless!"

You're shameless......

Qiao Yadan helps Uncle Bao with housekeeping once a week, and she goes to clean the room......

"Tsk, Uncle Bao, this is an old tree with new flowers, and a pear tree with begonias."

"Forget it, don't talk about Uncle Bao. Boss Wang, you promised to release a record for me a few years ago, but it's been half a year, why haven't you moved? Have you eaten dry and wiped clean and don't admit it? I'm telling you, if you dare to do that, I'll send the picture to your wife. ”

"Don't worry, releasing a record is not something that can be done in a day or two."

"Who are you fooling? I've released five albums, and none of them were recorded in a day or two! ”

"Sasha, four of your five records are covers, as long as you sing well, but you have to release an original album this time, it's useless to just sing, you have to have good songs, haven't I been helping you find songs, and when I find a good song, I'll help you release a record immediately."

"Didn't you say that you were looking for Li Baiyi to write a song for me?"

"Li Baiyi only writes lyrics and doesn't write songs, before looking for him, I have to find a good song first."

"Hey, are all the people who can write songs in this world dead?"

At this time, Qiao Yadan saw Fang Xiao, gave a smile from afar, and then walked over to this side, when passing by the table in front of him, Fang Xiao saw Sasha coldly kick Qiao Yadan's calf, she was wearing pointed-toe high heels, and the kick made Qiao Yadan stumble and almost fall.

"Yo, sister Yadan, why are you so careless, what if you spill the guest's wine, be careful."

Gioadan just glared at her, didn't say anything, limped around a table, and walked over.

Fang Xiao stood up, picked up the chair that had been vacated, and asked her to sit down.

Qiao Yadan rubbed his calves and asked with a smile, "Fang Xiao, when did you come?" ”

"Just arrived." Fang Xiao bent down to look at her legs and asked, "Does it matter?" ”

"It's okay, it'll be fine in a while." Qiao Yadan didn't let him see it, and asked Lan Xiaoxi: "You are the lead guitar of the licensed band, right?" ”

Lan Xiaoxi nodded.

Sasha turned around, looked at them, and said with a smile: "Sister Yadan, you waiter is really majestic, you actually sit by yourself and let the guests stand." I want a Hawaiian beach cocktail, go get it for me. ”

Qiao Yadan wanted to stand up, but Fang Xiao held her down and said to Sasha, "Sister Sasha, I'll go get it for you." ”

"Yo, isn't this the new Fang Xiao?" Sasha fussed and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't recognize it just now." Tsk, how dare I let you go and get the wine, you are a master who Boss Shen personally recruited to show us the color. Jordan, how do you do a waiter, I repeat, table 18 for a cup of Hawaiian beach! ”

She said yin and yang, but the voice was not loud, and Uncle Bao was beating jazz drums on the stage, so the other customers didn't notice anything unusual in the corner.

Fang Xiao's heart was furious, and he wanted to punch her face with heavy makeup, but he clenched his fists and held back - Uncle Shen is obviously a very well-behaved person, if he does this, it will affect the normal business of the bar, not only will his work be ruined, but Qiao Yadan will also be implicated.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't have a job, but Jordan can't, working in a bar is her main source of income, and she can also practice with the top piano here every day, if she is fired, it will be difficult to find such a good job, after she was kicked just now, she didn't even bother to speak, and went straight to the detour, obviously not wanting to lose her job.

This woman should have felt sorry for Qiao Yadan many times......

It's really not easy to work outside......

Qiao Yadan tugged at the corner of Fang Xiao's clothes, stood up, and said softly: "Fang Xiao, I have nothing to do, you sit down for a while." ”

Then she staggered to the bar.
