When did Rong realize that Yu Shimiao had grown up?

It was probably the year she took the college entrance examination.

That year was actually his busiest year.

Rong was in crisis, and the financial hole was torn open, so he had to cancel his plan to study abroad and join the company.

If you are subject to others, you have to bow your head.

You have to pay for your smiling face, you have to drink the wine you bring, even if someone else slaps you in the face or even spits on it, you have to smile and say yes.

This is the rule of survival in this world.

And Rong has always done things to the extreme.

Now that he has entered this circle, he has to be the one who stands at the top, and as for the process, it doesn't matter.

Fast forward to June of that year.

Most of Rong's financial crisis has been solved, and Rong has become more and more comfortable in the circle, and even the manager of the club is already familiar with his face.

As soon as Rong Ji got out of the elevator, he greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Rong, hello, hello." ”

Rong Ji nodded at him, "Mr. Zhao has already arrived?" ”

"It's upstairs, please."

The manager led him in the direction of the spiral staircase, and Rong followed a few steps, only to see a familiar figure at the end of the corridor.

His footsteps stopped imperceptibly, his eyes narrowed.

- She was wearing a white sleeveless dress, her long black hair was draped from her shoulders, she was talking on the phone with one hand, and the other was gently playing with the potted plant next to her, the corners of her mouth were raised, and her bright and delicate face was full of smiles.

"Mr. Rong, do you know?"

The manager's voice came.

Rong Ji came back to his senses, nodded and walked directly towards her.

"Yu Shimiao."

Hearing the voice, the smile on her face froze suddenly, and then she raised her head sharply.

The reaction of the frightened bird made Rong Ji's brows furrow immediately furrow.

And Shi Miao also hung up the phone at that time, looked left and right, and shouted in a low voice, "Young Master." ”

"Why are you here?" Rong squinted his eyes.

"I ...... Came with my classmates. Shi Miao pointed to the box inside, "Let's come over and sing." ”

When she spoke, she didn't dare to look at him very much, but the hand hanging by her side couldn't help but clench.

Rong Ji glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, and hummed, "Go back early, don't drink." ”

"Okay."

She responded respectfully, Rong didn't say anything more, and was about to turn around to leave, when she suddenly called out to him again, "Young Master." ”

He stopped and turned his head.

"This weekend is my first official performance on stage, do you have time to come and see it?"

Her words were spoken quickly, as if she had been silently reciting them in her mind several times, and at last she spoke.

- What kind of performance?

How can he have that international time now?

If he had that effort, he might as well read a few more documents, or ask the president of a certain bank out to play golf to connect with the actual relationship.

But at that time, Rong Ji came to the mouth of the refusal but did not say it, only asked, "When?" ”

"It's this Saturday, two o'clock in the afternoon." Shi Miao quickly laughed again, looking down to get the ticket in his pocket.

The front of her skirt is a buttoned design, and when she bows her head, the upper and lower buttons are squeezed together, and a slit is revealed in the middle, and the white skin falls into the eyes of the person next to her.

Rong Ji's eyes narrowed slightly, and by the time she realized that she should look away, she had already found the ticket, raised her head, and handed it to him with both hands.

"Two of them, you can bring your friends along." She said with a smile.

Rong Ji reached out to take it, and his fingertips inadvertently touched hers.

She seemed to be slightly stunned, but the smile on her face remained the same.

Under the light of the corridor, her eyes were bright, and her lips seemed to be painted with lipstick, which was not like a normal color, which made people dizzy, and she couldn't help but want to destroy.

Rong Ji's Adam's apple rolled slightly, but his voice was calm, "I know." ”

With that, he put the two tickets directly in his pocket, turned around and left.

The manager had been waiting for him there for a while, and when he saw him coming, he immediately smiled on his face, "Mr. Rong, this way." ”

Rong didn't answer, just followed him upstairs and then entered the box.

He had already arrived late and had been delayed a little longer, and by this time everyone in the box had already drunk.

In addition to the men, there were several women in uniform on the sofa seat, with standard wavy curls and a pungent smell of perfume.

Rong Ji chose a seat to sit down, and as soon as he picked up the wine glass, he heard the person next to him speak, "Why did Mr. Rong come in alone?" ”

This sentence was a little strange, Rong Ji had not yet frowned, and his face had already begun to smile, "What does Mr. Zhao mean by this?" ”

"I saw it all." Mr. Zhao squinted at him, "When I was downstairs just now, I saw you talking to a woman, that little girl is really smart, I thought it was your new girlfriend." ”

The smile on Rong Ji's face froze for a second.

But soon it was natural to say, "It's just a person I know." ”

"Oh? When will you bring it over to play? ”

As Mr. Zhao spoke, his hand also tightened the waist of the woman next to him.

That means it all too well.

Rong Ji responded with a smile, "Yes, if you have the chance." ”

As the words fell, he drank all the wine in the cup, and at the same time hid the gloom in his eyes.

The woman next to him leaned forward at the right time, the body hidden under the uniform brushed his arm intentionally or unintentionally, and her eyes with delicate eye makeup blinked at him.

Like a spring water that wants people to indulge in it, Rong Ji squinted his eyes for a while, but suddenly remembered the smile in the corridor just now.

This thought made him wrinkle his eyebrows, and his hand brushed the woman away, and he poured himself a glass of wine and added ice cubes.

The brown liquid entered the throat, and the tip of the tongue tingled slightly, which also suppressed the discomfort in the bottom of my heart.

……

On Saturday, Shi Miao arrived at the backstage of the theater early in the morning, and after changing his clothes, he sat on a chair to tune the strings, over and over again.

The person next to her couldn't help but laugh when they looked at her like that, "The first time to perform? ”

Shi Miao nodded, and quickly shook his head.

"I've been on stage before, but it's the first time I've performed in a theater."

"Well, that's normal." The woman sat down beside her and handed her a bottle of water, "Don't worry, if you get nervous and pull the wrong one, you can pull it down, anyway, there are so many cellists that you won't know who played it wrong." ”

Her words made Shi Miao couldn't help laughing, "How could you not know?" ”

"Hey, I'm just going to say that, you must have practiced a lot like this, even if you forget it for a while, you will have muscle memory, don't be afraid."

Shi Miao nodded, and remembered something again, "Are you also a performer today?" ”

"Well, I'm a piano soloist." The woman smiled, "My name is Zheng Wan." ”
