Shi Miao's first performance at the restaurant went well.

The store manager also gave her a small cake, saying that she was welcome to join the company.

Shi Miao kept thanking, "Thank you, store manager." ”

"Be careful when you go back."

Shi Miao kept nodding, standing in place and watching the store manager go back to the kitchen, and then walked outside with his piano on his back.

The location of the restaurant is not remote, but because of the late closing time, when Shi Miao walked out, he found that almost all the surrounding stores had been closed, and there was only one person on the entire long street.

After taking a few steps, she suddenly heard what seemed to be another footstep behind her.

She immediately turned her head, but saw nothing.

She frowned, and her hand couldn't help but clench the strap of the case.

A few steps further, she heard the footsteps again.

But this time she didn't look at it, and just ran away!

She knew the bus stop was just around the corner, but just as she was about to get there, she couldn't help but stop and turn her head sharply!

Probably didn't expect her to do this, the other party was obviously startled, and his footsteps stopped directly in place.

"Zhao Jing?" Shi Miao frowned.

"Hmm."

Because of the wild running, his chest was still rising and falling, but at this time, he was weak and shifted his gaze.

Shi Miao still looked at him, "What are you doing with me?" ”

"Who said I followed you?" He quickly found an excuse and quickly said, "I'm just catching the bus." ”

With that, he had already walked directly past her.

Shi Miao stared at his back for a while, but he still slowly moved forward.

It was already the last bus of the day, so after seeing Zhao Jing get on the bus first, Shi Miao had no choice but to follow.

There were only a few people in the car, and after Shi Miao put the piano away, he put the cake on his lap.

Just now, I ran all the way, and a corner of the cake was shattered.

Just as she was staring at the cake, Zhao Jing's voice suddenly came, "Hey." ”

Shi Miao frowned, but still looked up at him in the end.

"I heard you talking to the store manager in the afternoon." He said.

Shi Miao was stunned.

- In the afternoon, the store manager did ask her about Zhao Jing, but Shi Miao excused himself and said that he had forgotten the name of the restaurant, so he didn't know about his situation.

So, she quickly said, "I didn't snitch. ”

When the words fell, Zhao Jing suddenly laughed, "What are you lacking in?" I didn't say you snitched. ”

"I'm so ......"

"I know." Zhao Jing quickly interrupted her words, "Didn't I say I heard you guys?" You said it or not, of course I know. ”

Shi Miao stopped talking, just looked at him.

"I want to apologize to you." Zhao Jing coughed lightly, "My reaction was a little overdone today, I'm sorry." Also, the street is not very safe at night, so it's better to talk to the store manager and leave early every night, which is better for you. ”

Zhao Jing pinched the time very accurately, and after finishing his words in one breath, the bus also arrived at the station.

He didn't answer at any time, and turned around and got out of the car.

Shi Miao sat there, stunned, couldn't help laughing, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.

The joy lasted until she returned to Rong's house.

When she saw the car parked in the yard, the expression on her face suddenly became slight.

But she quickly got rid of the distractions and kept her head down.

The lights in the living room were still on, and Mrs. Rong and Rong were both sitting there, and Shi Miao had nowhere to hide, so she could only step forward to say hello, "Madam, young master." ”

"Coming back?" Mrs. Rong glanced at her, smiling without smiling, "Shi Miao is also a busy person now, so he came back so late?" ”

When her words fell, the other person's gaze also fell on Shi Miao.

faint, but it seemed like a sharp knife hanging above his head.

Shi Miao didn't dare to raise his head, but said softly, "I'm sorry madam, I disturbed your rest." ”

Mrs. Rong only snorted lightly, and her eyes quickly fell on her hand, "What are you holding in your hand?" ”

"Cake."

"Where did the cake come from? Someone else gave it to you? ”

Mrs. Rong was pressing step by step, and Shi Miao could only tell her about her part-time job in a Western restaurant.

Mrs. Rong didn't care about anything else, and after hearing that her cake was not from an unknown source, she also lost interest, and only waved her hand, "Take it to your room and eat it, I get tired of looking at this thing." ”

Shi Miao immediately responded, and then left with the cake.

Mrs. Rong lowered her head and took a sip of tea again, "Where did you just go?" ”

Her words were not answered.

Mrs. Rong raised her eyes a little strangely, "Rong Ji?" ”

At that time, Rong Ji's eyes also turned away from the logo on the cake in Shi Miao's hand, and looked at her with a smile, "Mother is talking about going on vacation, right?" ”

"Oh yes." Mrs. Rong then continued, "What do you think of Country X?" ”

"Yes, I'll have someone arrange it for you."

……

Regarding Zhao Jing's advice to Shi Miao, Shi Miao told the store manager the next day.

She was still a little apprehensive, but the store manager readily agreed, "Okay, then you will leave work half an hour early in the future, and the salary will be the same as the original." ”

"No, you deduct ......"

"It's okay, it's not easy for you students to work, and there's nothing to worry about for half an hour."

The store manager patted her on the shoulder, "I'm to blame for this, I should have thought of it earlier." ”

"Thank you...... Thank you. ”

"Little thing, by the way, I think the last song you played yesterday is very good, and you will play it again today?"

Shi Miao quickly laughed again, "No problem. ”

The manager didn't say anything more, humming the tune out of tune as he walked outside.

When Shi Miao was standing in place and looking at his back, Zhao Jing's voice came, "The time is almost up, you still don't change your clothes?" ”

Only then did Shi Miao come back to his senses and turned around and went back to the rest room.

Zhao Jing had already put on his performance costume and was buttoning the sleeves.

Shi Miao thought for a while and asked him, "Will you play "Ode to the Moon"?" ”

Zhao Jing glanced at her, "What, you want to play with me?" ”

Shi Miao nodded, "The store manager likes this, I think if we play together, the effect will be better." ”

"You are the one who has received his favor, why should I cooperate?"

Shi Miao choked for a moment, but quickly replied, "I can pay you." ”

Zhao Jing raised his eyebrows, looked at her again, and finally nodded, "Okay, but your level is limited, you have to follow my rhythm later." ”

Shi Miao admits this, "Yes." ”

Half an hour later.

Shi Miao came to the stage on time, and Zhao Jing followed behind her.

The lighting on the stage is not eye-catching, and the environment under the stage is not absolutely elegant, but after they glanced at each other, they smiled tacitly and then pulled the strings.

The soft sound of the piano flowed out.
