Chapter 78: Signing
Seeing that Woodside House was in front of them, and every window in the building shone with a warm orange glow, the exhausted Vivian and Wen Jin felt a sense of home.
Previously, Vivian bought a connecting flight cheaply, and two days ago, as soon as they went to Detroit, they were told that the flight was canceled due to the impact of a snowstorm in the northeastern United States. After being stranded for nearly a dozen hours, they negotiated with the airline, transferred to flights to other cities, took greyhound and taxis, and tossed for two days before returning to school.
At this time, it was dinner time, and the two girls, who had not eaten any serious meals for several days, put down their luggage and ran directly to the restaurant.
As soon as I sat down for the meal, I saw Mia, who was wearing pink graffiti harem pants, black leather clothes, and black leather boots, surrounded by a large group of people such as Peter and Andrew.
After a Christmas break, Mia was naturally very happy to see her two best friends again, and she hastily sent the boys of the rock band away, while she sat down next to Vivien with a smile and chatted with them.
"Why did you only get to school today? In today's AP European History class, Dr. Kupa asked why you didn't come. Is there too much Chinese food and I don't want to come back? Mia teased Vivien with interest, her pink hair shining in the light.
After the fierce battle at the airport, Vivien was so hungry that she desperately took a few bites of hot shrimp pasta into her mouth, and she had no time to stop talking. She thought in her heart that a young lady like Mia, who had lived a good life since childhood, would definitely laugh at her for being stingy if she knew that they had bought a connecting flight ticket.
Today, instead of wearing the dark-brown-red lipstick that she eats like earth, Mia has replaced it with a red one, which makes her look a little more sexy and beautiful
She secretly wondered to herself that after a Christmas break, Mia seemed to be in a good mood, and she didn't see the sad face at the end of the last semester.
She swiped the side of her mouth with the meat sauce on a napkin, and said, "I see that your face is full of red light, so you must have good news to share with us." ”
"Haha, you can even guess this!" Mia wore black studded leather boots and stepped on an empty chair next to her dishonestly, "That day, my mom and I were scanning at the mall when we received an inexplicable phone call saying that he was from Universal Music and watched the video of my singing in the America's Got Talent last year, and he actually wanted to talk to me about signing a contract and signing a record!" ”
"Huh? It's true? Vivien looked up from a large plate of greasy fried chicken wings, golden crumbs still sticking to her nose.
Mia's slender fingers, painted with blue-gold nail polish, took a few strawberries from Wen Jin's plate, put them on the empty plate in front of her, and tossed them with a fork, and said nonchalantly, "Of course, they have already signed a letter of intent with my mother. ”
As he spoke, he picked up a red strawberry from the plate and put it in his mouth, and after a while, his smile was also infected with the sweet fragrance of strawberries, and said: "I knew that when I grew up, I would definitely be a singer, this is my destiny." ”
Wen Jin had just stuffed a bite of cheesecake into her mouth, the fork was still in mid-air, and she tried to move the cake in her mouth to the side of her cheeks, looking like a squirrel with a pine cone in her mouth.
She slurred and asked, "If you sign a contract, will you still be able to go to school?" ”
"I definitely have to go to school, because the school has my musical inspiration, not to mention, going to school doesn't delay the release of records. Universal Music plans to release my first album next fall, after the summer vacation, and at least three of them will be my original songs. Then, they will wait for me for a year and a half, during which time, they will look for good works for me, as soon as the 12th grade application season is over, we will immediately start preparing for the second chapter album, and there may be a concert, and then, if I work too much, I can also have a gap year in college" (gap year: after graduating from high school, after getting the college admission letter, you can choose to go to college for a year at night, and use this year to do what you like) ...... a year"
After Vivian killed a piece of charcoal-grilled pork chop with her bare hands, she proudly puffed her fingers and sighed: "You signed a contract with me to support it with both hands, and a writer in China once said: To be famous is to be early!" ”
"Yes, yes, you will become a big star in the future, and we will be so good." Wen Jin said as she dipped the chocolate truffle cake on the fork in the chocolate crumbs on the plate.
"Hey, why didn't you see Emma, she wasn't with you today?" Only then did Vivien remember that there was no trace of Emma in the group of rock band members just now.
"She," Mia's excitement faded like a tide, and she sighed and said, "I'm going to the party again." ”
Wen Jin and Mia glanced at each other, and they both knew each other. Emma is Wen Jin's roommate, and she knows that Emma likes to go to Bai Xinrui's party the most, and Mia is not angry at Emma for attending the party, but is still angry about being framed for cheating at the end of last semester.
Wen Jin held Mia's cold little hand understandingly, and comforted: "Okay, it's all in the past, and it didn't succeed anyway." ”
"It's okay, I didn't take it to heart." Mia replied with interest.
Vivien and Emma are not familiar with each other, so naturally they don't know what is going on, and when she heard "it didn't work", she immediately thought of the high-energy scene she witnessed last semester. In order to hide her slightly unnatural expression, Vivien, who had already eaten three plates of food, buried her head in the already cold bowl of creamy mushroom soup and drank it.
At this point in the topic, Mia lost the mood to talk any longer, and barely coped with a few words, so she said that she had a lot of homework and went back to the dormitory first.
Forty-eight hours later, after finally eating a hot and full meal, Wen Jin enjoyed some fruit slowly, until he was almost unable to straighten his waist, and then reluctantly stood up from the wooden chair. Turning her head, she saw that Vivien was looking at her with strange eyes, looking like she wanted to say something.
"What's wrong? Sister. Wen Jin thought that something was on his face, so he wiped the napkin indiscriminately.
"Let's go, let's go out!" Vivian dragged Wen Jin out of the dining room.
