"Little Master Lingxi, get out of the car!" Uncle Li, the housekeeper, parked the car at the door of the apartment, opened the door of the back seat, and said to Xiao Lingxi, who was sitting in it playing games.

"Hmm." He handed the schoolbag to Uncle Li, jumped out of the car, and ran towards the door.

Pei Lingxi's mother Wei Ru had already opened the door, ready to welcome her good son, she was wearing a white dress and a thin fan knit sweater, squatted down and opened her hands to her oncoming son, and hugged Pei Xiaolingxi.

She said to him gently:

"Today's final exam results are out, did the baby take the first place in the class!"

Pei Lingxi replied to her mother in a childish voice: "It's not so powerful, the third in the class." ”

"That's already great!"

Wei Mu rubbed his head and asked him, "Then what reward do you want?" ”

"I want to go to the music restaurant where my mom works, and I want to hear you sing." Xiao Lingxi pouted, hoping that her mother would agree when she saw his cute appearance.

"Ahh You have to get your father's permission to do this. Wei Mu took his little hand and walked into the house, and Uncle Li behind him also followed.

At the mention of his strict father, Xiao Lingxi didn't dare to squeak, he knew that his father had always been reluctant to let him go to the place where his mother worked, so he lowered his head in frustration and didn't say anything.

Seeing the child's lost expression, Wei's mother still decided to give it a try, so she rubbed his little head and said softly: "Why don't you wait for Dad to come back tonight, and let's discuss with Dad together?" ”。

Xiao Lingxi immediately smiled after hearing this, and trumpeted his head.

"Uh-huh!"

In the evening, the family of three sat down to eat together, and Pei Lingxi's father, Pei Youwei, asked about the child's situation at school.

"How is it, Lingxi, I just finished the first-year course, how do you feel, have you made a lot of excellent classmates?"

The primary school that Pei Youwei reported to his children is an international primary school, and the children who can go to school there are all very wealthy families, and it is essential that there will be some princes of leading enterprises, if they make friends with them, then as parents, they can have the opportunity to meet and cooperate.

"Well, I met a lot of friends, such as Su Lin, Li Pin and Ma Zhenyu." Xiao Lingxi was not very happy eating.

"Yes, then you must be good friends with them and keep in touch with them often." Pei Youwei nodded with satisfaction and took a sip of wine.

"I heard your mother say that you did well in the final exam this time, do you have any rewards you want?"

Xiao Lingxi's eyes immediately lit up. "Is it okay to get any reward?"

"Tell me about it first."

"I want to go to Mom's Music Restaurant."

"Nope." Pei Youwei put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at him with some seriousness.

"Why? Why didn't you agree with me going there all the time? Xiao Lingxi wanted to know why, he didn't even know where his mother worked.

Pei's father said with a smile: "No, it's not good, you still have a lot of specialty classes to attend in the summer, you have to focus on studying, don't think about that kind of entertainment, you always have to remember that you are going to inherit the company in the future." ”

"But it's not a conflict, I can go back after class."

"Do you still have the heart to study in that kind of place?"

"Why not? I can relax! Pei Lingxi was angry that his father deliberately said "that kind of place", and he clearly saw that his mother's expression was a little embarrassed.

"Playing games at home is also relaxing, and traveling is also relaxing, I have already said no, there is no room for negotiation." Pei's father wiped his mouth with a napkin, then got up and left.

Pei Lingxi looked at her mother, held her hand, and cared about her:

"Mom, are you alright?"

Wei Mu shook her head, put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, and took out a tissue to wipe Lingxi's mouth.

"It's okay, good boy, son, since Dad won't let me go, then be obedient, and Mom can also sing to you secretly at home."

"Then you're going to sing to me every night."

Wei Mu smiled and nodded.

"I will do it!"

Xiao Lingxi didn't talk about this idea in front of his father after that, but obediently went to school.

If Pei Lingxi has always been an excellent and well-behaved child when he was a child, then he was very naughty and rebellious at the age of 14 in junior high school.

"Hey, Uncle Li, I'm going to stay after school today to rehearse the school celebration program, you won't have to pick me up, I'll take a taxi back by myself then." Pei Lingxi, who was already out of school, walked on the road and called Uncle Li.

After hanging up the phone, Pei Lingxi walked out of the campus and stopped a taxi on the side of the road.

"Master, go to the Wine and Music Restaurant."

"Okay."

Pei Lingxi deceived Uncle Li, in fact, today he asked the teacher for sick leave and left the school early, he was going to see where his mother was singing.

If his father wouldn't let him go to that restaurant, he would be curious and would have to go there to find out why he wouldn't let him go. So he once sneaked into his parents' room while his mother was out to work and his father was working in the study, and found a business card of her in his mother's makeup cabinet, knowing that the place where she worked was called the Wine and Music Restaurant.

When the taxi reached the end point, Pei Lingxi got out of the car after giving the master money, and he stood at the door of the wine and music restaurant that was in business, observing it.

"Isn't it just an ordinary star-rated hotel! I thought it was so magnificent! ”

Pei Lingxi walked into the restaurant and sat down on the seat next to the railing on the second floor, the restaurant has two floors, there is a stage in the center of the first floor, and the back is a place to play music, at six o'clock in the evening, the orchestra will come here to play some songs, and the stage is reserved for the singers, Pei Lingxi's mother is one of the singers here.

Tables and chairs for two people are placed in the fence on the second floor of the restaurant, and there are some private rooms upstairs. Pei Lingxi sat there and ordered a steak, waiting for the six o'clock moment to come.

After hearing the sound of applause from someone downstairs, he looked up and saw his mother Wei Ru, if it weren't for the fact that he had lived with her for many years and was already familiar with everything about his mother, he might not have recognized standing on the stage, and the person who was going to sing would be his mother who was always without makeup and dressed plainly.

Wei Ru stood in the center of the stage in an over-the-knee cheongsam emblazoned with daisies, her hair pulled back in an 80s ripple pattern, and her bright red lips were so brightly illuminated by the spotlight. She opened her mouth to sing the songs of Teresa Teng, Xu Yuying and others in the 90s, and her singing voice was slow and soft.

With the constantly floating warm lights, it seems to really bring people back to Shanghai Tang in that era for a while, Pei Lingxi looked at his mother in front of him, as if she had a magic that attracted him, he was infected by his mother's music, and at the end of this song, he found that there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

Mother then sang a slow English song, Pei Lingxi only knew that her mother was a singer when she was young, and she quit the showbiz because she married her father, and followed her father to City A to settle here, and found a job here to continue singing.

But he didn't know that his mother, who was standing on the stage, would have such a happy smile, which was different from the happiness of learning that he had obtained good grades, and the happiness when his father gave her an expensive gift, but the kind of happiness with stars shining in his eyes, which he had never seen.

Her English songs were also sung so refreshingly, after the song, Pei Lingxi couldn't help but applaud her mother.

"Really...... Listen well. ”

And a similar starlight gradually appeared in his eyes.
