C245 Sick
Qin Ran held onto the hot water bottle, drinking the hot water from the cup and moaning, "Why can't I be like you, Xiaoxiao, and eat whatever I want?"
"You're still talking? Look at you. After eating so many mutton skewers, it was originally hard to digest. You, ah, I couldn't even stop you at that time." Gu Xiaoxiao said helplessly, and brought the medicine over to Qin Ran, who sighed, "Go back to your room and sleep, if you had a cold in the living room, then it would be even worse."
"Xiaoxiao, I recently think that you have the potential to be an old lady."
Gu Xiaoxiao saw that Qin Ran had no other choice but to drag Qin Ran into her bedroom. After seeing Qin Ran taking the medicine, Gu Xiaoxiao finally relaxed and returned to his room.
The autumn's weather was a little cold. Gu Xiaoxiao tidied up the clothes in the house that were used for the summer, and when she arrived at this place, she was in a hurry. Although this job was very tiring and she didn't have much time to rest, he still received quite a bit of salary.
Gu Xiaoxiao decided to wait until Qin Ran's stomach recovered, and then she would go shopping with him, preparing to spend the winter in a foreign land.
Lying on the bed, Gu Xiaoxiao felt very tired, and all of a sudden, she fell asleep.
Just as Gu Xiaoxiao wanted to say that sshe had no future, he was pulled back into reality by a wave of vomiting sound. There was someone who was vomiting in the room, so it must be Qin Ran.
Looks like, Qin Ran's condition was very serious this time.
"Qin Ran, are you alright?" Gu Xiaoxiao ran to the bathroom and saw that Qin Ran's face had turned pale white, "I don't dare to bring you to a place like this anymore, Qin Ran, why don't we go to the hospital?"
Qin Ran waved his hands, and only after she had completely vomited and drank the warm water that Gu Xiaoxiao had prepared beforehand did he catch his breath, "Xiaoxiao, let me tell you, I'm feeling much better now. I couldn't even spit it out just now, I used a lot of methods, and in the end, choked on my throat with a toothbrush.
Gu Xiaoxiao felt that it was kind of funny, but she kept it in a serious manner, "Oh you, in the future, I can't hurt you anymore. You should rest at home properly tomorrow, I'll go and help Yue Han and you to apply for leave."
"But Xiaoxiao, if it wasn't for me, no one would be playing the piano. What would you do?"
Gu Xiaoxiao thought about it too, but still shook his head, "All of these are not as important as your body. You will stay at home and not go anywhere else.
Qin Ran nodded, feeling wronged. "Sorry Xiaoxiao, it's because you didn't sleep well, so I can't play together with you tomorrow. I'll definitely be good in the future and not eat any random food."
Gu Xiaoxiao nodded her head, "Understood, quickly go and rest."
The next morning, Gu Xiaoxiao woke up and started to make porridge. Both she and Qin Ran did not like to cook, so there was no smoke or fire in the house.
If not because of the worry that the porridge outside would become cold, perhaps Gu Xiaoxiao would still choose to order takeout. After all, this was the lifestyle of females in this new era.
After placing the porridge on the table, Gu Xiaoxiao went to knock on Qin Ran's door. When she realized that Qin Ran did not come to open the door, she realized that he was still deeply asleep.
After writing a note, Gu Xiaoxiao finished putting on her clothes and left the room. Today, she would let Qin Ran rest well, as for the Western Restaurant, it shouldn't be a problem for him to play by himself.
Yue Han looked at Gu Xiaoxiao who had finished putting on her clothes, and asked puzzledly: "Why did you not come?"
"Yue Han, on the other hand, was not feeling well and had not been sleeping much the entire time. She had a bad stomach, probably caused by the skewer last night. "
Yue Han had an apologetic look on his face, "I'm really sorry, I didn't know my stomach was not good. Next time, I will definitely not bring you guys to that place."
Gu Xiaoxiao laughed, "Yue Han, of course I can't blame you for this, but today's performance .."
"This is a bit troublesome. How about this, I'll find a temporary piano player for you. What do you think?" I wonder if your collaboration will go smoothly? "
Yue Han's expression was a little strange, but Gu Xiaoxiao did not notice it, she nodded happily: "Then that's truly great, I was even worried that it would delay your business, I will try my best to cooperate with him."
When Gu Xiaoxiao stepped out of the door, a person slowly walked out from the darkness. His eyes were like the water in a deep pool, unmoving for thousands of years. Yue Han had always felt that his friend's eyes were really good.
"Mr. Howe, did I help you a lot this time? I wonder if Xiaoxiao will be angry with me for that? "
The person who came out was Huo Moting. He was dressed in a black suit and looked exceptionally straight. Although the estrangement and coldness in his eyes made him look difficult to approach, everyone who was familiar with him knew that this was just his usual appearance.
"Thank you very much." Huo Moting didn't say much and had already walked out in large strides. Yue Han could feel that Huo Moting couldn't wait any longer, this man who had always been cold really liked Gu Xiaoxiao a lot.
He didn't know why the two of them were so in love, nor why they had misunderstood each other so deeply.
She didn't know who exactly was coming for her. She had practiced playing with Qin Ran for a very long time, adding that she had known Qin Ran for a very long time, she would need to benefit from a good musical composition. And Qin Ran and herself could perfectly complement each other. Although Qin Ran's performance on the piano wasn't top-notch, it was definitely not bad. He didn't know if the person who came today could cooperate better with him.
Without waiting for Gu Xiaoxiao to think any further, she heard a burst of exclamations from the service area. She followed the sound and looked over as well, and coincidentally, the jumping rays of light landed on that person's body, causing Gu Xiaoxiao to see Huo Moting.
He stood under the mottled light and was like a fallen angel covered in holy light in this western dining hall that did not have any changes in its nature. Gu Xiaoxiao stood up immediately.
"Xiaoxiao." Huo Moting stood in front of Gu Xiaoxiao, his eyes carrying guilt and yearning. Even though he had been looking at her secretly for a long time, when he saw her face to face, he was unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.
"Why is it you?"
Ever since she was driven away by Bei La at the hotel, Gu Xiaoxiao had always stayed at Qin Ran's place. It had been a long time since she had last seen Huo Moting, and they had met under such circumstances.
The surrounding people didn't know what had happened. Gu Xiaoxiao knew that her own voice was a little too loud, so she hurriedly lowered her voice and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Qin Ran is sick. Let me play the zither for her."
"You .." Gu Xiaoxiao did not expect that the person who came was Huo Moting, and in an instant, countless of thoughts ran through his mind, but all of them were blocked by his mouth.
"Don't reject me. This is a job, I am clear about it."
Hearing her words, Gu Xiaoxiao immediately calmed down. Since he could clearly tell, what was there for him to be clear about? It was just a performance.
"Play what?" Although the longing in his eyes was about to spill out, Huo Moting was still holding back his emotions. He knew that this was Gu Xiaoxiao's job, and since he was here, he definitely could not affect Gu Xiaoxiao's work.
"C minor." Gu Xiaoxiao's voice became cold as well. It was nearing noon and there were already more customers. Yue Han stood in the corner and looked at everything that was happening, silently sighing. This Huo Moting's personality was simply too arrogant and spoiled.
Huo Moting sat in front of the piano. His fingers were extremely thin, and didn't look like a man's hands at all. However, his hands were very big, and his fingers were even longer. Although he looked calm on the surface, only Huo Moting knew how excited he was right now.
The cello was the first to sound out. The sound of the cello was always heavier than before, but the piano was more melodious. The sound of these two instruments paired together was especially pleasing to the ear. However, there were times when Qin Ran could not grasp the rhythm of the piano well, and that was why he missed out on Gu Xiaoxiao's perfect cello performance.
However, those who were familiar with music understood the way they understood things. Although the people who came to eat in this western restaurant were all very respectable people, not everyone could understand music.
However, today was an exception.
Ke Laier sat on her seat and looked around her surroundings. She was obviously very satisfied with her place, there was a golden-haired man seated opposite her, although the two of them looked western, their speech was fluent in Chinese.
"This steak is really good." Ke Laier praised.
Ai Lun nodded, "Indeed."
The cello s voice rang, and the two of them stopped talking. Ke Laier's jade green eyes were obviously filled with amazement at the sound of the cello.
's fingers were nimble, but the tune that he had not played for a long time, seemed to have been played a thousand times in his heart, as smooth notes poured out. Although this is a tune suitable for cello, but using the piano to make up for the cello's inadequacy, the combination is very ingenious.
Even Gu Xiaoxiao himself had to admit, even he himself was incomparably shocked by the cooperation with Huo Moting.
Music was common, it was something that could enter a person's soul. At this time, Gu Xiaoxiao had completely put down her grudge and was completely immersed in the sea of music. Looking at Gu Xiaoxiao's serious expression, Huo Moting suddenly felt as if he had returned to his youth. At that time, he and Gu Xiaoxiao could not even be considered as close friends, but the Gu Xiaoxiao on stage was actually so dazzling.
This cello gave life to Gu Xiaoxiao, but Gu Xiaoxiao gave soul to this cello. It was a brilliance that belonged solely to Gu Xiaoxiao. When playing, Gu Xiaoxiao did not belong to anyone, she belonged to the music.
The restaurant was obviously quieter than usual. Ai Lun and Ke Laier both closed their eyes and enjoyed the perfect impact of the music on their ears. Who would have thought that in a small western restaurant in China, they would be able to hear the melody of the cello and piano. It was simply too surprising to know what to say.
The duo's teamwork was flawless, and although those who didn't understand music wouldn't be able to hear anything, they felt that today's tune was especially nice, and even included some curious people. Seeing the two people playing today at close range, Ai Lun and Ke Laier included.
Naturally, they wanted to get to know people at the player level.
