C132 (1/2)
In the afternoon, Sheng Qian called her, saying that he would invite her to a concert in the evening. That band was the one she liked the most when she was in America.
Qiao Xuan thought for a moment, then agreed.
As if he had not expected it to be so easy, Sheng Qian was stunned for a moment before replying happily, ”I'll pick you up at 7 then.”
”En,” Qiao Xuan paused for a moment, remembered about the cellphone, and said: ”Thank you, Sheng Qian.”
Sheng Qian thought that she was talking about the concert and laughed: ”What are you thanking me for? I also like that band, I just happened to buy two tickets.”
Knowing that he misunderstood, Qiao Xuan did not explain, because when talking about the phone, he would inevitably mention Sheng Liang, so he might as well misunderstand.
They finished their meal around five o'clock. Qiao Xuan had changed his clothes and was sitting in the living room waiting for Sheng Qian. When Qiao’s mother saw that she dressed formally, he could not help but ask: ”Hua'er, do you want to go out?”
”I'm going to the concert with a friend. I might be late. You don't have to wait for me. You should go to bed early.” Qiao Xuan said.
Qiao’s mother was still a little worried, but before she could say anything, she heard Qiao Nan say, ”Mom, don't stop my Sis from going out for fun. That kind of occasion, it's only people with good taste that go out.
Hearing Qiao Nan talk like a female pervert, Qiao Xuan grabbed the pillow behind her and threw it over: ”What nonsense are you talking about!”
Qiao Nan made a face at her, then returned to his room.
However, Qiao’s mother still looked at Qiao Xuan seriously and said, ”Mom does not want any brother-in-law. The most important thing is to treat you well.
All of my parents look forward to this, right? After going through such a huge illness this time, Qiao Xuan regretted that she wasn't very sensible before. Her sadness and sadness are actually all torture for her parents, she will never do that again.
”I know, Mom.” Qiao Xuan held his mother's hand, feeling a little sour in his heart.
When her phone rang, she saw that it was Sheng Qian's number. She did not pick it up, but instead said to her mother: ”Mom, I'm going.
After exiting the entrance of the residential complex, Qiao Xuan saw Sheng Qian's car parked by the side of the road. When she walked over, he had already gotten out of the car and opened the door for her.
”Are you cold?” When Sheng Qian asked this, he had already raised the temperature of the hot air to a higher level.
She looked ahead, at the place where the lights were shining, the newly paved road seemed to be shining with light, ”The road may be frozen, drive slower.”
Sheng Qian looked at her and laughed: ”So you cared about me this much.”
”I just don't want to go to the hospital again.” Qiao Xuan said as he looked away.
Sheng Qian looked at her, his mouth still full of smiles, but he still listened to Qiao Xuan, driving very slowly.
As a result, they were late.
The door to the concert hall had already been closed and the security guards were not allowed to enter.
”Probably not with this band.” Qiao Xuan said somewhat helplessly. In the United States, she had worked hard to save up enough money, but she did not have a ticket. This time, she had bought a ticket, but she was too late.
Seeing the look of loss on her face, Sheng Qian had a bad taste in his heart. He took out his cell phone and dialled a number, telling the person at the other end, ”Help me out. I came to the Naersi Theater to listen to a concert, because I was late and was stopped outside.”
A female voice came from the other side, and carried a tone of ridicule: ”So even the Fourth Young Master of the Sheng Family has a time to beg for help.”
The phone's sound quality was too good, so Qiao Xuan could hear it very clearly. Sheng Qian turned to look at Qiao Xuan and spoke to the person on the other side of the phone in a hushed tone: ”Zhao Xiaowei, if you don't mock me, I will die! Just tell me if you can help! ”
Just as he finished speaking, a beeping sound came from the other side of the phone. Sheng Qian could not help but curse: ”What!”
