Chapter 14 (2/2)

Over the phone, Zheng Wei Qiao seemed to have heard the rustle of his clothes and said, “You have a performance tomorrow, so you have to restore your strength well.” Then he promptly hung up.

In fact, while Zheng Wei Qiao felt that it was a pity, Qi Mu was aggrieved!

According to his plan for the future, it would take him a year to develop in Huaxia if nothing unexpected happened. A world-class symphony like Bai Ai usually only came to Huaxia once a year. It would probably take another year for him to hear them perform. And he couldn’t leave Huaxia for quite some time. This really made him cry without tears!

At that time, he didn’t know——in what universe would it take a year?

A seemingly indifferent conductor would have to be eagerly sent to the door to perform for others, but for him, not only the piano, he wouldn’t even leave!

It was really a plan that couldn’t keep up with change. It would be his first time discovering that even though Min Chen was a world-class performer, after listening to it again and again for a hundred dozen times, he really wouldn’t want to hear it again!

On the other hand, after their performance, the members of Bai Ai got a holiday which lasted for ten days after Christmas. At the beginning of this extended vacation, all members cheered for the first tour of B City.

Daniel watched their animated figures and helplessly said, “Min, have you decided when you will return to Berlin yet? It’s Christmas holiday now. If we don’t book tickets soon, I’m afraid there will be no first-class ones left.”

Daniel said so while flipping through articles in a music magazine. On top of his temporary work desk, there were stacks of music magazines, newspapers and non-music magazines. The only common feature of these newspapers and magazines was that they reported Bai Ai’s performance last night.

In contrast to Daniel who was sitting at his desk and chatting away while still busy, the man sitting on the sofa holding a thick document appeared to be at leisure. His eyes were focused on a page filled with Latin words. Hearing Daniel, he replied without taking his eyes off the document, “I’ll go back early next year.”

Daniel was so shocked that the newspaper in his hand fell to the ground!

“Next year?! You don’t even want to go back for Christmas?! Will Mrs. Bertram agree?”

Min Chen just said “Uh-huh” lightly and turned to a new page.

“. . .You are still——? Okay, your parents are looking for you and not me anyway, but I’m going back! My sweetheart is going to spend Christmas with me.”

Min Chen just replied with another “Uh-huh,” as if he was too lazy to spare the other person even a minute.

Daniel, “. . .”

After a long time, the blond man finally lost his temper. He felt that if things went on like this, he would go bald sooner or later——though he didn’t know how his anger was related to baldness.

“I’m not talking to you, you evil child. Since you’re going to stay in B City, there will be a concert tomorrow. Are you going?”

Min Chen actually lifted his head and asked with some interest, “What concert?”

Daniel thought for a moment, “It’s B City Orchestra, they’re rather good. They sent us a few tickets yesterday so you can take them if you want to go.” Then Daniel took the tickets out of his drawer and set them on the coffee table. He then said, “If you want to go, then you can take them for yourself. I still have something to do.”

Who expected that Min Chen would just glance at them and say, “Not going.”

“. . .”

After a moment, Daniel shouted, “Why not?!”

“I’m sleepy, so I want to sleep.”

“. . .”

What sleepy? You’re still here reading books!

The afternoon passed, and Daniel was too lazy to say a word to this eccentric and self-serving man. But when it was getting dark, and he was about to leave, he passed the coffee table and was surprised to find that——

The tickets were gone!!!

“Okay, who said that he wouldn’t go? Who said ‘I’m sleepy, so I want to sleep’? You just don’t want to admit you want to go!”
