Chapter 5 Director, I am the Resident Singer
Chapter 5 Director, I am the Resident Singer
(5) I am your resident singer on Wednesday, Wednesday
The support department made a great contribution, and everyone in the Huashi discussion area appreciated the support department's ability to adapt, which made Mai Ya and the others happy all day long.
"Little Bai Cai, where are we going to eat tonight? The director invited you, don't be rude!" Mai Ya was bought off by the director's smile yesterday, and the Detour Alliance opened up a new topic because of it.
"Recently, it was said on the Internet that there is a restaurant for dinner and drinking, and there is a resident singer after dinner time. I heard that the director likes to listen to music. That restaurant should be good. It's near Huashi." Bai Caijie had already chosen last night.
"Then let me tell the director's secretary." Manager Zhang is the supervisor, and consciously took the responsibility of contacting the senior management, "Xiaolu, have you asked for leave from your part-time job tonight?" Lu Chenxi just came back from the outside.
"Please." They knew that every Wednesday, Lu Chenxi would work part-time, but she didn't say what she was doing, and everyone just asked.
Lu Chenxi took a taxi with a few people from the support department to Bai Caijie's restaurant.The moment she got out of the car, she was stunned when she saw the dark mahogany-red European-style door with the bronze plaque on it engraved with "Open".
She thought to herself what a coincidence, so she had to bite the bullet and let them in.
Push open the heavy wooden door and enter a British-style space.
A crystal chandelier hangs down, and the soft and warm light is refracted through the crystal into tiny starlight, scattered on the brown leather sofa.
The square dining tables are covered with maroon tablecloths, and the white porcelain plates and shiny silver knives and forks have been arranged.
The innermost part is the bar counter. The strong spotlights hit the upside-down wine glasses and colorful wine bottles, creating a dreamy atmosphere.
Sitting on a round high chair without a backrest, the body will naturally lean against the bar wood and approach the bartender, fall into their magical bartending, whisper and express their mood inadvertently.
Next to the bar is the soul of the place, a small stage.The piano is a fixed role here, and it is also the partner of the resident singers here.
Feng Qian from the support department likes the interior design and yearns for the full British style of this restaurant.As soon as I came in, I couldn't help but take pictures everywhere, even the wall lamps on the wall.
As soon as Bai Caijie sat down, the waitress handed over the menu and served boiled water soaked in lemons, and stood beside them waiting for their order.
"Excuse me, do you have a resident singer here? What time does it start?" Bai Caijie's focus on choosing this restaurant is music, and he is also looking forward to it, and the matter of eating and drinking is temporarily put on the back of his mind.
"Sorry, the resident singing is suspended tonight. Our singer is on leave." The waitress responded politely to Bai Caijie.
oh!Several people sighed at the same time.
"This... well, there is no way." Everyone else was a little disappointed, only Lu Chenxi lowered his head and snickered, yes, because the resident singer was going to have dinner with friends.
"Drinks, everyone. Please take your time." Another waiter brought the drinks they ordered just now, and just after putting down a glass, he saw Lu Chenxi and said in surprise, "Hey! Deer, didn't you ask for leave? Why are you here? ?”
"What did you say?" Malt grabbed the waiter's hand excitedly.
The waiter pointed at Lu Chenxi and said helplessly, "The resident singer of our restaurant."
Everyone looked at Lu Chenxi in disbelief.
"My part-time job." Lu Chenxi took a sip of whiskey.The waitress just now should be new here, so I didn't recognize her.But it is impossible for others not to know her.
Bai Caijie looked annoyed what to do. Originally, he chose this restaurant because there was a resident singer, and he told the director this selling point.Who would have thought that Lu Chenxi would be the resident singer here... Then do you want to invite Lu Chenxi to sing?
Before he could think of a solution, Director Fang arrived.
"Director Fang!" This time it was Feng Qian's turn to react quickly enough.
"Hi everyone! I'm off work, so please call me Fang Yi." Fang Yi sat down in the only vacant seat. "Did you order food? I'm almost starving. I didn't have lunch today."
"It's ready, Mr.... Miss Fang Yi..." Bai Caijie said tremblingly.
"In this way, can I call you Sister Yi?" Mai Ya asked heartily. She has no class concept, and sometimes she finds it more cumbersome.It's rare that Fang Yi looks easy to get along with, she said cheekily.
"Sure. Your name is Mai Ya, right?" Fang Yi doesn't look like an executive after get off work, and Mai Ya is very happy that Director Fang knows her nickname.Then he introduced others excitedly: "Yes! He is Xiaobaicai, Feng Qian is Feng Qian. Manager Zhang is Manager Zhang. Lu Chenxi is the little deer, the deer god, and the leader of the deer alliance."
"Wait, why do Xiaolu have so many nicknames? What leader?" Fang Yi looked at Lu Chenxi curiously.Lu Chenxi embarrassedly grabbed a handful of peanuts and ate them.
Mai Ya immediately took out his mobile phone and swiped the Detour League to continue breaking the news, "Come on, this is our leader Lu." The click was on Lu Chenxi who was recently photographed backing up in the parking lot. It was Lu Chenxi who drove to work with her one day shot.There were many comments under that topic, all of them were fans of Lu Chenxi.
Fang Yi thought about women's gossip, whether he should open a small account to see.
"Does she know?" Fang Yi asked in Mai Ya's ear.
"Yes. But she doesn't look."
"Maybe she doesn't bend."
"I don't bend either."
"She's hardcore." Bai Caijie next to him was used to chatting up Mai Ya.
"Tsk, young man, he's a rotten diehard." Feng Qian rolled his eyes at Mai Ya.
Laughter erupted at their table.
"What?" Fang Yi, who had just returned from a foreign country, didn't understand their jokes, but Feng Qian and the others just laughed and failed to explain to Fang Yi.
"A rotten girl is a girl who likes to watch gay sex. But she is a hardcore straight girl." Only Lu Chenxi was left to explain to Fang Yi calmly, because she was not interested in these gossips.But she knew they all loved to watch, especially Malt.
"What's the matter? You discriminate against rotten women!" Mai Ya shouted with a smile, not minding at all.Totally moved the joking support department from Huashi to here.
They ordered salted pork knuckle, Thai salad, grilled mackerel, mushroom soup, pasta with mussels in white sauce, fish and chips, and pizza.
Manager Zhang drinks beer with Malt.
Feng Qian doesn't know how to drink, he can only drink lemon soda.
Bai Caijie and Fang Yi ordered HighBall.
Lu Chenxi has been drinking pure whiskey.
"I heard that the restaurant you picked has a resident singer, what time does it start?" Fang Yi asked them with French fries in his mouth.Several people looked at Xiaoyan with big eyes, and then all looked at Lu Chenxi.
Lu Chenxi is the singer here, and everyone didn't know it beforehand.Fang Yi just joined the company not long ago, so of course he didn't know.Only Chen Jing knew that Lu Chenxi's part-time job was to be a resident singer, and he often asked her to help reserve tables.
"Well, I'm on leave." Lu Chenxi calmly took a big sip of water.
"It's a pity." Fang Yi picked up another French fries.
Then Lu Chenxi stood up, walked slowly to the bar of the restaurant, said a few words to the bartender, who nodded and walked backstage and came out again.
The small stage next to the bar has only one piano on it.The moment Lu Chenxi walked onto the stage, a spotlight was turned on, and the yellowish light poured down from Lu Chenxi's head, covering her whole body.
The eyes of the guests in the restaurant instantly focused on the small stage, they put down the knives and forks in their hands, and took a sip of wine slowly.Quietly waiting for the singer on the stage.
The sound of the piano came from Lu Chenxi until she opened her mouth, her voice was alto with a hoarse guttural voice.
(The lights are also dimmed)
(Music quiets down)
(The marshmallow in my mouth also melts)
(It's cloudy outside the window)
(people are bored)
(My heart starts to miss you)
There were only a few chords, and Lu Chenxi played very slowly, almost singing a cappella.
The people in the restaurant held their breaths, and the air of loneliness spread, sneaking into Fang Yi's heart.
(The phone rings and you're about to talk)
(I thought you missed me again)
(Why your voice has become cold)
(It's you who changed, it's you who changed)
(The lights go out and the music stops)
(tears can't stop falling)
(it's raining)
(people are not happy)
(my heart really hurts)
(my heart) (really) (hurt) (hurt)
The people on the stage put their hands down slowly, and the music stopped.
The applause first started from the table in the support department, and then spread to the entire restaurant.
Fang Yi seems to have seen some unspeakable past of her.
She secretly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, and pretended to take a sip of wine casually.Lu Chenxi's voice is magical, it sneaks into people's hearts quietly, and there are precipitated emotions in the singing.
A Gu from Lu Chenxi was planted in her heart.
"Thank you everyone. Tonight is very special. I originally asked for leave. I had dinner with my friends to celebrate. Then they chose this restaurant because I heard that there is a resident singer here every Wednesday." Lu Chenxi looked at the table in the support department , "Then, I go to work when I'm full."
Dang!
She randomly pressed two notes on the piano, "What do you want to listen to? I'm in a good mood tonight. Find a playlist for everyone to order, okay?" There was thunderous applause at the scene, and Lu Chenxi's singing was very popular here. Coupled with the handsome appearance, some guests specially reserve tables on Wednesdays.
Lu Chenxi smiled brightly, his eyes were as warm as the lights on his head, "I am your resident singer on Wednesday, my name is Wednesday, Ah San."
She played some pop jazz music briskly with both hands. She likes this kind of music, and I remember that Fang Yi also likes it.
Until 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, the music ended, and everyone was drunk and full.Fang Yi chatted with the support department, and before he knew it, he drank too much and walked staggeringly.Lu Chenxi asked her to hold her arm, "Little Lu, you sing really well." Fang Yi stepped on high heels, a little taller than Lu Chenxi, but she insisted on burying her head in the other's shoulder.
"Thank you." Lu Chenxi responded lightly with a smile.
Fang Yi suddenly stood up straight, held Lu Chenxi's face in his hands, looked straight into her eyes, and saw her brown pupils.Gentleness, flowing in Lu Chenxi's eyes.
The moment he caught Lu Chenxi's tenderness, Fang Yi twisted Lu Chenxi into his arms.In Fang Yi's embrace, there was a burst of sweet perfume, wine and slight sweat, mixed into an indescribable smell that stimulated Lu Chenxi.
She couldn't use her strength for a while, so she let Fang Yi hold her, puffed into her ear, and said, "Don't be so indifferent. Tell me the sad things, it's like sewing up a wound, although it will hurt, it will end. Scab. But at least it won't let the blood dry."
The numb feeling was like electricity passing through Lu Chenxi, who reacted immediately, broke away from Fang Yi, and forced her into the car.Fang Yi fell asleep leaning against her, brushing away the stray strands of hair on her face, with a harmless face. "Can you sew?"
Fang Yin hummed, and kept leaning on Lu Chenguang's body, trying to find a more comfortable position.In fact, Lu Chenxi really doesn't have much meat on his body.
After getting off the car, Fang Yi woke up and was able to walk by himself, but he walked sideways and straight.Lu Chenxi couldn't help but take a picture of director Fang Yi drunk, and kept it for later use.
"Little Lu, go home!" Fang Yi seemed to be stepping on both ends of the cross dance, but he couldn't find Lu Chenxi.
Lu Chenxi stepped forward and took her arm: "Okay. Do you remember where you live?"
"Live at your place!" Fang Yi's reaction was really quick when he was drunk, and he shouted without thinking.Lu Chenxi felt that Fang Yi would hurry up as he walked while talking, so he followed her and said, "Where am I?"
Unexpectedly, Fang Yi struggled and pointed at Lu Chenxi's chest, "Here!"
This finger didn't really touch Lu Chenxi's chest, but her heart was indeed poked, it shook her, and she regained consciousness in an instant.Pointing to his chest, he said mockingly, "I'm leaking here! Ha!"
Fang Yi supported Lu Chenxi's shoulder with his strength, patted his chest and said, "Come on! Sister, I'll make it up for you!"
What are you talking about?What sister's?Lu Chenxi was stunned by Fang Yi, and helplessly grabbed her hand, pulling and dragging to enter the house.
Holding Fang Yi back into the house with difficulty, he almost wanted to throw her directly on the sofa.But seeing that she had no intention of waking up at all, he gently put her on the sofa without disappointment, and took off her high heels and coat.
Lu Chenxi also brought cleansing oil to help Fang Yi clean up. The plain Fang Yi was a little less tough and a little more pure.After thinking about it, Fang Yi seems to have contact lenses, and he hasn't taken them off for others for a long time... Then he carefully helped Fang Yi take off the contact lenses, wiped his hands and feet with a hot towel, and covered them with a blanket.
She was exhausted, and fell on the bed after taking a hot bath. The words "Sister, I'll make it up for you" floated in her mind, and she shook her head, what kind of sister, you can't be worse than yourself.
The next morning, Fang Yi woke up relying on the powerful biological clock.I saw myself sleeping in the living room of Lu Chenxi's house, with no clothes on, but my eyes were blurry, and I blinked. Could it be that the contact lens ran away?After sleeping for so long, it should be dry and painful.
She staggered to the bathroom. The self in the mirror had already removed her make-up and contact lenses.Could it be that I did it myself? Why don't you take a shower after removing your makeup?Are you that drunk?
There was some movement in the kitchen, and Fang Yi remembered it.I had dinner with the support department last night. It turns out that Lu Chenxi can not only sing, but also play the piano, and is a resident singer.Rubbing her cheek, it was Lu Chenxi who helped her remove her makeup and contact lenses last night, but did not change her clothes...
Lu Chenxi outside made breakfast and knocked on the door, "Have breakfast! Are you ready?"
"Oh! Soon!" Fang Yi quickly took a bath.
When he came out, Lu Chenxi had already finished eating and was watching the stock market while drinking coffee.Fang Yi saw that Lu Chenxi was wearing a vest again, and his body was covered with tattoos, which made people unable to take his eyes off.
Gradually feeling uneasy about being watched, Lu Chenxi raised his head, "What's the matter? Do you want to drink? I made some strong tea for you. Eat something first."
Fang Yi looked away embarrassedly, "No, thank you last night."
"Well, you slept too deeply, so I couldn't change your clothes." Lu Chenxi didn't want to change for her, and she hasn't been in contact with other women for a long time.
"How can you take off contact lenses for people so well?"
"Just practice more."
Fang Yi choked on the milk, "What? Practice?"
"Well, my girlfriend used to get drunk a lot."
puff! What?This time the milk was sprayed directly on Lu Chenxi's face. "I'm sorry! I didn't do it on purpose." He hurriedly picked up the towel around his neck to help Lu Chenxi wipe the milk that was sprayed on his face. Fang Yi was frightened by Lu Chenxi's sudden coming out of the closet.
Lu Chenxi was wiped on the face by Fang Yi's used towel. The usual shampoo smells light, but now it is mixed with Fang Yi's deodorant, which makes people feel so excited.It's a pity that Fang Yi's reaction disappointed Lu Chenxi, so it's hard to accept.
"Sorry to scare you." Lu Chenxi took a sip of coffee, then turned and left.
You, said you would make it up for me...
"No. Deer. I'm sorry." Fang Yi hurriedly apologized, but had no time to explain.Lu Chenxi didn't want to hear an explanation either.
"Ah."
The tattoo on Lu Chenxi's back became very eye-catching, and the totem clinging to her body was a shackle, imprisoning Lu Chenxi.
When I saw Lu Chenxi again, she had already changed into a hat and jeans.As usual, I drove a small sports car to work.What's a little different is that I drove faster today. Compared with the speed these days, it's almost too fast.
There's wanton rock music playing in the car, which means: please shut up.Of course Fang Yi understood what she meant, so he had to find a chance to explain to Lu Chenxi.Although she is a straight girl, she doesn't mind other people's sexual orientation, and she shouldn't be surprised by Lu Chenxi's appearance, but she was still shocked when she said "ex-girlfriend".
"Here we are. Director Fang." Lu Chenxi found a way to bring Fang Yi back to his senses as quickly as possible.
"Uh, thank you." Fang Yi was surprised that Lu Chenxi drove himself directly to the Huashi parking lot today.
"It's raining outside." The rock music in the car had already been turned off. Lu Chenxi guessed Fang Yi's surprise, turned around and climbed to the back seat to get his backpack, and a faint and cool fragrance sneaked into Fang Yi's breath.
Fang Yi glanced at her indifferent side and neck, and looked down to see the tattoo on the edge of the neckline.
Where the tattoo is covered, there seems to be something...
The "director" was distracted again.Fang Yi got out of the car in a hurry, and he couldn't cheer up until he got to the office.
Several people from the support department made a fuss when they saw Lu Chenxi come back. "God Lu, please take care of me!" Mai Ya jumped directly into the three-dimensional dimension in the forum, saying everything about monkeys.
"Little Lu, can you sign for me?" Feng Qian took a photo of Lu Chenxi playing the piano on stage last night and printed it out.
The tone of the photo is soft, and the light on the stage is down, depicting the outline of Lu Chenxi. She can vaguely see the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and her eyes seem to be looking at the camera.
The support department immediately burst into wow, Feng Qian not only did the design, but also took good photos.Lu Chenxi, who was originally lost, was amused by them and laughed. These people were so heartwarming and kept her warm.Picked up the oil-based pen and signed it—
Wednesday @Lu
