Chapter 52: Preparing for the Appointment

After making a perfect appearance and coming out of the mall after eating, Gong Yao and Li Man were about to take a taxi back to school, but not far ahead, Li Man saw the guitar shop that had helped the president of the guitar club to substitute for a guitar teacher before, so he turned his head to Gong Yao and said, "Let's go to the guitar shop in front of me, the boss I know, I want to go and say hello to him." ”

Gong Yao nodded and walked over with Riemann.

The boss was very happy to see Li Man coming, and immediately greeted him with a smile. As soon as Gong Yao entered the door, she felt the enthusiasm and affinity of this chubby boss.

"Yo, Riemann, it's been a long time, how are you doing?"

Li Man smiled, "It's good, what about you, has business been good lately, oh yes, did anyone buy that guitar last time?" ”

"Harm! That guitar was a limited edition and sold out as soon as it came out on the same day. The boss brought two bottles of drinks to Gong Yao and Riemann, and at this time there were no customers in the store, and the boss wanted to chat with Riemann.

When Li Man heard the boss say this, he still felt a little regretful in his heart, if he hadn't left last time, the owner of the guitar would have been himself.

"I still want to buy that guitar, forget it, it's not me." Riemann shrugged helplessly.

The boss smiled, "Harm! It's hard to talk about fate, you don't think you have a chance now, but maybe in the end, go around and around, or come back to you, fate, who knows? By the way, I heard that Xu Zhou's kid also participated in your school's party? The boss's gossip face came up again, wanting to inquire more.

Riemann smiled, he didn't expect the news to come out...

"yes, it's a shame to have him, otherwise our band would have one less drummer."

The fat boss almost squirted out a sip of drink when he heard what Li Man said, and looked at Li Man with wide eyes, and the whole person seemed to convey the incredible.

"You mean, Xu Zhou, playing drums?" The fat boss wanted to confirm what he had just heard, so he asked again.

Li Man looked at the boss's surprised appearance and felt a little curious, but he didn't have to react so much, so he shrugged his shoulders, "Yes, I didn't expect him to play the drums at first, but the fact is that he plays the drums very well, we haven't rehearsed together and there are no mistakes at all." ”

The fat boss smiled again after being surprised, Li Man couldn't understand what this reaction meant, and said to the boss again: "You, why do you seem to be surprised?" ”

The fat boss looked at Li Man and took a sip of his drink, "This matter has to start from two years ago." ”

"Xu Zhou started to form a band when he was in high school, I used to be the owner of the livehouse by the lake, he always came to drink and watch performances when he was in high school, I knew him at that time, I always thought he was a drum genius, I said that when he finished the college entrance examination, I would give him one night to let his band perform here, and the wine tickets were free. Finally, after the college entrance examination, their band began to rehearse day and night. ”

"You mean Xu Zhou also formed a band before?" Riemann interrupted, feeling a little surprised, why hadn't he heard this matter mentioned?

"Yes, but his dad knew about it, his dad always thought that he was not doing his job playing music, and his dad was the principal of Dunan, and then his dad forcibly broke up their band, and the lead singer, guitarist, and keyboardist were all bought by his dad with money, and the band was gone. I heard that his parents' relationship has not been very good, his mother inherited his grandfather's listed company, and his father is just a principal, and later his parents divorced... It seems that it was because his dad had an affair, and it was when his dad moved, he heard his parents talking, and he knew the truth about their band's disbandment, and his dad also said don't let him know about it, but he couldn't hold the fire... Xu Zhou can be regarded as a double blow, when his father was still in a school meeting, Xu Zhou went up to reason with his father, and almost fought. Originally, his father arranged for him to go out to study, but after this incident, he didn't go, and then his father arranged for him to go to Dunan, and since then, Xu Zhou has never been to the livehouse, nor has he played the drums, so I just heard you say that he played the drums, and I was quite surprised..."

Li Man never expected that there would be such a story behind Xu Zhou, looking back, Bai Yan was not in him that day but was willing to take the place of the drummer, even if it reminded him of the unpleasantness of the past, he did it, Li Man was full of emotion in his heart.

The boss looked at Li Man in a daze, and continued: "Xu Zhou is very righteous, right, he still doesn't know how to chase girls, I haven't seen him fall in love, this time I can take this step for you and play back the drum, it seems that you are really important to him." After the fat boss finished speaking, he immediately took a sip of his drink, and secretly glanced at Riemann's reaction, being a brother can only help this...

Li Man seemed to have just come back to his senses, looked at the boss and smiled, and stood up, "That, boss, it's not too early, we should go back to school, next time I'll come and talk to you." ”

Gong Yao felt that Li Man's mood seemed to be a little complicated, so she said to Li Man in a joking tone: "Ah, I didn't expect to see Xu Zhou's playboy appearance, but he hasn't been in love yet!" ”

Li Man looked at Gong Yao and said, "Isn't Teng Xiaofeng the same?" ”

Gong Yao immediately became shy, as soon as she said the word Teng Xiaofeng, Gong Yao was like an instinctive reaction of her body, the corners of her mouth began to rise, her eyes were crooked like crescents, and the smile on her face couldn't help but overflow, "What, where is Teng Xiaofeng a playboy!" ”

Riemann smiled, "Yo, this is the beginning of protecting the calves, right?" ”

Gong Yao turned her head to the car window and didn't continue to argue with Riemann.

Li Man lowered his head, thinking about the boss's words just now, and he was stunned when he thought of it, but he was awakened by Gong Yao's sudden question.

"You... Like him? ”

Riemann's brain is buzzing at the moment, do I like him?

Riemann was also secretly asking himself.

Gong Yao saw that she had been bowing her head and not saying a word, and her intuition had already told her the answer.

"Here we are." Gong Yao said.

As soon as she returned to the bedroom, Gong Yao wanted to take a bath and sleep for the first time, and after a day of shopping, the feeling of exhaustion came spontaneously.

Li Man sat in his place, his eyes staring directly at the page box of Xu Zhou in the WeChat of his mobile phone, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start, not knowing what to say more appropriately.

Annoyed, Li Man put on the headphones and clicked on the song that Xu Zhou shared with her in the last chat history.

--I don't want to be far away, I just want to find a lovely place. Across Feihang, through the alleys, you stand in the alley I never expected. This is the bravest moment of my life, you standing in front of me at the end of the world...

When Li Man heard these lyrics, his nose suddenly became sour, and he immediately opened the mobile phone screen and clicked on the chat page with Xu Zhou.

--Thank you. Thank you for your willingness to play the drums for us last time, and I owe you a thank you.

After Li Man sent the message, he put the mobile phone on the table, his fingers kept knocking on the table, waiting nervously for a reply, and after a while, the mobile phone rang, Li Man immediately opened the mobile phone, looked at Xu Zhou's reply, and smiled unconsciously.

---It should be that I said thank you to you, Lao Fu just told me that you went to his guitar shop, and also told me that he had told you about my past. It should be me thank you, if it wasn't for the coincidence of the party, I probably don't know when I will touch the drum again, it was you who gave me the courage to start again, I should thank you.

Riemann replied with an emoji, the song just ended, Riemann set up a loop, and shared it with the circle of friends - [This is the bravest moment of my life]

Xu Zhou came with another message.

--- tomorrow Saturday, are you available?

Li Man suddenly remembered that Gong Yao was going out with Teng Xiaofeng tomorrow morning, and he must help her dress up, Li Man thought about it and replied:

--I may not be free in the morning, because Teng Xiaofeng made an appointment with Gong Yao, and I helped her dress up.

---Haha, Teng Xiaofeng really took Lu Chenghe's suggestion.

Riemann was puzzled, as if he knew where the two of them would go tomorrow.

--Do you know where they're going tomorrow?

--- should be Disney.

Li Man smiled and saw another message from Xu Zhou.

---So, are you free tomorrow afternoon and evening?"

Riemann posted a well-hmmed meme and was typing "What's the matter?" I saw Xu Zhou send another one.

---Can I date you then?"

Riemann suddenly became nervous, his heart began to beat faster, and in a panic, he still sent a "Okay." ”

Li Man's WeChat "found" that there was a little red dot there, click in to see, it was Xu Zhou who liked it under his sharing, and couldn't help laughing, this slight smile, the smile was very sweet, very intoxicating, and very gentle.

It's just that at the moment when I secretly smirked, I was caught by Gong Yao, who had just come out of the bath.

"Tut-tut, it's the first time I've seen you smile like this, you don't have to guess who you're talking to!" Gong Yao wiped her hair with a towel, walked up to Li Man, and said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, you're the best, I'm going on a date with you tomorrow, and I'm still talking about me!" Li Man seemed to be wrapped in sweetness at the moment, and an uncontrollable smile hung on his face, and after talking to Gong Yao, he got up and went to take a bath.

Gong Yao was about to take out a hair dryer to blow her hair when the mobile phone on the table rang.

Gong Yao opened it and saw that it was Teng Xiaofeng's information.

--- go out tomorrow, rest early tonight, get windy at night, and be careful not to catch a cold. Good night.

Gong Yao felt as if she was infected by Riemann, and somehow she felt inexplicably happy at the moment, and kept smirking at her phone.

--You too. Good night.

Gong Yao really wanted to come tomorrow, but somehow, she felt that the wind of this hair dryer had a sweet smell.

This dormitory seems to be swaying with sweet bubbles invisibly, and this is the first time that Gong Yao and Li Man are so eagerly looking forward to the arrival of tomorrow.
