On the day Wang Shasha was sent to the mainland, Zhang Jiao took Liu's mother to bid her farewell.

Zhang Jiao sent some money to the escorted police, applying to get a little time to say goodbye to Wang Shasha, and the police agreed, but confiscated the money.

Zhang Jiao didn't force it, and asked Liu's mother to go to the cabin to talk to Wang Shasha first, and she waited a little longer.

Half an hour later, Liu's mother came out.

"Miss, you go." She wiped away her tears, apparently just another cry.

Zhang Jiao nodded, as if she hadn't seen her tears, and walked directly around her into the cabin.

It was dark in the cabin, with only a small narrow window. Zhang Jiao borrowed the light and saw Wang Shasha with her hands and feet locked, sitting on the small bed under the window.

Zhang Jiao didn't regret it after not asking Wang Shasha, because she knew Wang Shasha's answer.

"I've heard that the laws of the mainland are more humane, and you may not die. Maybe we'll see you again someday. Zhang Jiao said with a smile.

Wang Shasha raised her head to look at her and said nothing.

Zhang Jiao sighed slightly, took out something from her bag, got up and handed it to Wang Shasha.

Wang Shasha rubbed the small chapter that Zhang Jiao gave her and asked, "What is this?" Her voice was hoarse, and she lost the crispness and melodiousness in Zhang Jiao's impression.

"This is the seal of the Plum Blossom Bank, you take it. If one day you can be free, you can take this badge to the bank and withdraw money and start over. ”

Meihua Bank is a veteran bank, and Zhang Jiao specially inquired about its reliability before asking someone to open an account and deposit some money in it.

"I don't want it, you take it." Wang Shasha held the chapter in the palm of her hand and handed it back, she didn't want to owe Zhang Jiao any more.

"Take it. This money is not from me, it is the money given by Liu's mother, let me find a way to give it to you. "When I was repatriated, I was not allowed to bring anything, so I had to find a way to do it from somewhere else.

If this seal is found, it is estimated that it will have to be taken away, and I just hope that Sasha can hide it herself.

But Zhang Jiao lied, and she also added money to it.

"In order to make your life better, Mother Liu sold the house and withdrew all the money in the passbook, and didn't keep any money in this bank. If you remember her goodness, hide this seal, and you will have a chance to come out in the future and live well. ”

Zhang Jiao didn't understand why Mother Liu was so good to Wang Shasha, and even Mother Liu herself couldn't tell, maybe half of it was because of the guilt of Aunt Feng's neglect, and half because of the relationship between the three of them.

On the day she turned herself in, Wang Shasha handed over the passbook given to her by Liu's mother to the police and asked her to return it to Liu's mother. But Wang Shasha didn't expect that this passbook would be changed and returned to her.

Her eyes quietly began to redden.

Zhang Jiao noticed it and stood up, "I hope you can think clearly for yourself, your mother would rather suffer than let you live well, your godmother is willing to do her best to make your life better, you should cherish your life." As long as you have the opportunity, you must live. ”

After speaking, Zhang Jiao turned around and prepared to leave.

"Thank you, and please help me thank my godmother!" Wang Shasha said with a crying voice.

"Got it, I'll tell you." Zhang Jiao pulled up a smile, it's good to be able to figure it out, it's not in vain that she said so much.

The ship slowly left the port.

Zhang Jiao stood on the pier, looking at the vast sea, and she had a strange calm in her heart.

In the days that followed, Aunt Feng and Wang Shasha seemed to gradually disappear into her world with the rolling waves of the sea.

After Liu's mother sold the house, she did not return to Zhang Jiao's house to live.

Instead, he used his new salary to rent a room near Pearl Street and live alone.

Qi's mother always told Zhang Jiao that she was too tough, and she didn't know what she was thinking. After speaking, he always sighed, sighing that Liu's mother was miserable.

Zhang Jiao just listened, and occasionally responded to a word.

Life has returned to its original peace in this way.

Zhang Jiao still lies down every day reading books and basking in the sun, practices boxing and tennis from time to time, and goes swimming when she is interested.

But life won't always be so peaceful.

*

After a series of cumbersome and complicated procedures, Zhou Bufan finally held the singing contest lively.

"What is this?" Zhang Jiao took the envelope from the self-proclaimed staff member of Extraordinary TV.

"Director Zhou asked me to send you an invitation, saying that it was the first time to hold a competition, and it would be more solemn to send an invitation to invite you to participate."

Invitation? Not to mention anything else, this does sound like Zhou Bufan said it, it doesn't have much effect but there are enough tricks.

But Zhang Jiao is still quite curious.

She tore open the envelope with anticipation, wanting to see what new things Zhou Bufan could come up with.

You can take the invitation out of the envelope and look at it, oh, a big double happiness word comes into view.

opened it again, and it read: I respectfully invite Zhang Jiao, the eldest lady of the Zhang family, to come and guide the "First Hong Kong City Singing Competition" held by Extraordinary TV. There is also a small print on the left side indicating where and when the contest will be held.

After Zhang Jiao finished reading it, the smile on her face suddenly collapsed.

I just felt that my fist was already starting to move. This invitation is indeed quite solemn, she just took out the blank invitations left at the engagement to make up the numbers, right?

Ha, borrowing is not borrowing thoroughly, so the format of the invitation card is also correct.

This invitation, the more Zhang Jiao looks at it, the more familiar it feels.

"Mother Qi, come and see, is this invitation familiar?" Zhang Jiao beckoned, and asked Qi's mother, who had just led people into the house, to distinguish it.

Qi's mother was very puzzled, so she came over and took a look, hey, I'm really familiar! She had seen it before, and I heard that this style was specially designed and made by the Zhou family for the sake of festivity, and other families couldn't see this style.

The share given to the young lady is still received by her! At that time, she also specially asked the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family's housekeeper for the contact information of this designer, thinking that when the young lady got engaged, she would also ask him to design a different invitation.

"Isn't this the engagement invitation that Miss Zhou sent last year? Why did you send it again, did you take it by mistake? ”

Zhang Jiao snorted coldly, "That's right." She threw the invitation on the coffee table and asked the staff, "What else did she say?" ”

Zhou Bufan sent the engagement invitation, so the reasons and excuses should be thought of, let her hear how outrageous it can be.

Mother Qi glanced at Zhang Jiao's face, took it over curiously and took a look, and then couldn't hold back her laughter and burst out laughing.

The TV station staff blushed with embarrassment, but they still had to finish their words, so they could only continue to speak.

Director Zhou said that the word double happiness on the invitation card has a special meaning, which not only means to celebrate the establishment of our TV station, but also represents the success of the first singing contest. It's a good sign of double happiness. ”

When he first received this job, he thought that it was just running errands, easy to do and able to gain face, and even thought that it was finally his turn. But now, he only felt that his face was about to become hot.

It's all embarrassing!

Zhang Jiao was deeply impressed after hearing this, and she really deserved to be a person who could act to deceive investment from her, look, even this kind of high-sounding words can be made up.

Okay, she will definitely go to this audition!

After getting the accurate news, the TV station staff ran away as if they were running away, and Qi's mother left him for dinner, but he didn't listen, for fear of falling into an embarrassing situation again.

The audition of the singing competition was held in the drama theater, and Zhou Bufan rented it for a few months, just to be able to successfully complete all the competitions here.

When Zhang Jiao took Brother Peng to go, she walked by the entrance of the drama theater and found that there were many people queuing up to enter the theater.

When she saw Zhou Bufan, she asked curiously, "Did you still invite the audience to watch the game?" ”

At the mention of this, Zhou Bufan was a little excited, "It's all thanks to Brother Zhou, you really gave me a good helper."

He suggested that since it was in a drama theater, it would be better to get a ticket to watch, you can buy tickets for two yuan, and after a game, you can write the name of the supporting contestant in the blank space of the ticket and vote for the singer you like. ”

In order for someone to cheer for the tickets, Zhou Bufan also set a voting mechanism, and those voted by the audience can stay even if they are eliminated by the judges.

She took Zhang Jiao to the audience and pointed back, "Look, how good this effect is!" ”

The effect is really good, Zhang Jiao looked at the theater almost full, and some people held cheering signs, which said "xxx come on!" Something like that.

Seeing her looking at the dazzling signs, Zhou Bufan explained to her, "Only a small part of these audiences came spontaneously out of curiosity, and more of them were the families of the players." ”

Family members account for a larger proportion, but it is normal, how can you win an extra layer of protection for yourself if you don't come more.

Zhang Jiao couldn't help but sigh, this marketing is simply amazing.

The theater has nearly 1,000 seats, and although the tickets are low, if they are all sold, how can a game charge more than 1,000 yuan. Even if you can't get back all the rent, at least a small part of it can be earned.

Zhang Jiao sat down in the front row arranged by Zhou Bufan, feeling quite novel. Even in her previous life, she had never participated in concerts or dramas and other gathering activities.

Today is the first time I have had this experience.

Zhou Bufan took out some small snacks from his bag and threw them into her arms, proudly asking for credit for himself. "This is the best viewing distance, especially for you."

"Oh, I thank you."

The seat is under the stage, Zhang Jiao can touch the stage as long as she stretches out her hand, although her mouth is hard, Zhang Jiao has to admit that this position is indeed very good.

"Who did you choose the judges?" Brother Zhou also reported to her before, but Zhang Jiao had a lot of things in her mind in those days and didn't remember anyone.

Zhou Bufan hated iron and steel to look at her, and resigned himself to her ear and whispered to her, "There are four judges in total." The first is the famous lyricist Cao Di, the second is the popular singer Hua Duo, the third is the veteran movie star Chu Ming, and finally the producer Chang Fan of Universal Music. ”

Zhang Jiao nodded, the lineup of judges is quite strong, but I don't know what the strength of these contestants is, and whether they can play the role of the judges.

Soon it was time to open, and the host took control of the stage.

"Welcome to the inaugural Hong Kong City Singing Contest hosted by Viva TV, which was held in four sessions. Today is the first round of the audition...... Let's look forward to the performance of the players. ”

Speaking of the auditions, Zhou Bufan said to Zhang Jiao with a headache: "There are quite a lot of people who have signed up this time, and it is estimated that the audition will take several days to end." ”

I haven't seen the results yet, and a lot of money has already been spent.

Zhang Jiao has long been mentally prepared, after all, the talent shows she watched before would take months to end.

"It's okay, it's been a long time, and more people know."

"Hopefully." Zhou Bufan spread his hands.

I hope I don't waste my money!

After the host highlighted the ranking of Extraordinary TV, he began to invite the judges to appear.

The first to appear was the singer Hua Duo, who greeted the audience behind him after he walked up to the judges' seat, which immediately caused a burst of enthusiastic cheers.

The second to appear was the movie star Chu Ming, as soon as he appeared, the audience began to shout his name loudly without him talking, and the passionate screams made Zhang Jiao directly cover his ears.

Sure enough, no matter what era it is, fans are not a group to be taken lightly.

Compared with them, the appearance of lyricist Cao Di and record producer was much more deserted, except for polite applause, there was nothing.

But they have a lot of experience, live in a dignified manner, and deal with the unevenness of the world without changing their faces.

Once the judges are seated, the competition officially begins.

The first contestant was a young boy with clear eyebrows, and when he introduced himself, his voice was crisp and loud. Zhang Jiao nodded with satisfaction, she is a star seedling.

"The moon comes out ......"

As soon as the boy spoke, Zhang Jiao directly put on a pain mask, feeling that her conclusion was too early, and the child's tone was going to run to the North Pole.

Direct Pass!

This is followed by the second, third......

After insisting on listening to a few people's mouths, Zhang Jiao took advantage of the time when the host came on stage to speak, and exhaled deeply.

Life is precious! She's going to escape this hellish place!

Zhang Jiao turned her head to Zhou Bufan with a serious face and said, "I left first, and suddenly remembered that there were still important things to do." ”

Zhou Bufan condemned her with his eyes, who was sitting at the scene didn't know who, this excuse was believed. "You can't go, what should I do if you're gone?"

Her hand held Zhang Jiao tightly, adhering to the idea that everyone would die together, and no one should think about it, and resolutely refused to let Zhang Jiao leave.

In order to escape for her life, Zhang Jiao even showed her kung fu that she hadn't practiced for a long time. Zhou Bufan didn't see how she moved, so she broke free.

And she reacts very quickly, and as soon as she gets out, she pulls her legs and runs.

Watching Zhang Jiao run away, Zhou Bufan gritted his teeth with a fierce expression, "You wait for me!" ”
