Chapter 179 What A Beautiful Hand

After “Mariage d’amour”, the rest of the show paled significantly and everyone felt bored and sleepy.

After the programs were over, Deputy Mayor Zhang said with a smile, “Good, Director Lu, people in your hospital are all talented. Oh, can I meet the couple who played the piano and danced just now?”

Director Lu knew that Deputy Mayor Zhang stayed on until the end of the gala because of that outstanding performance. Liu Kexin had won credit for the hospital. He must reward her. After what Deputy Mayor Zhang said, Director Lu hurriedly asked a subordinate to look for Liu Kexin.

Soon, the person who went looking for them came back and whispered to Director Lu. Director Lu nodded to show that he understood, then looked apologetically at Deputy Mayor Zhang and said, “Deputy Mayor, they left early.”

“Oh, it doesn’t matter. Haha, this show is very good. To be honest, it’s regrettable for them with their talent.”

Director Lu smiled apologetically and explained, “The lady who danced is a nurse at the inpatient department of our hospital. She hasn’t been working very long, and she is very young. Her name is Liu Kexin. As for the gentleman who played the piano, he is Liu Kexin’s boyfriend and is not an employee of our hospital.”

“Oh.” Deputy Mayor Zhang nodded and said thoughtfully, “Then he must be a pianist. Although I don’t understand these things, the standard of his performance, from what I’ve seen, and I have seen a lot, in my opinion, he must be a well-known pianist. But I have never heard of the name Xiao Bing.

Director Lu smiled and said, “I will ask about him for you when I meet Liu Kexin.”

“Well, haha, I am just casually asking. I’m a little curious.. Well, I’d better excuse myself. You are working well as a director of the hospital. Don’t emulate the former director. You keep up your good work. At your age, there is still hope for a promotion in future.”

Director Lu was pleasantly surprised. He respectfully accompanied Deputy Mayor Zhang to the car and watched him leave.

After the car had gone quite a distance, Director Lu immediately took out the phone and called his son Lu Qiang. He said coldly, “Brat, do you understand what you saw today? Don’t dream anymore. Some people are no destined for you. If you cause trouble again, I will drive you out of the hospital, let you go home and reflect on your misdeeds.”

Director Lu then hung up. Today was a good start. He had not long taken over and urgently needed the support of the leaders, and Deputy Mayor Zhang obviously had a good impression of Xiao Bing and Liu Kexin. Director Lu would never let his arrogant son cause trouble for himself and offend the young people whom Deputy Mayor Zhang appreciated.

At that moment, Xiao Bing, Liu Kexin and the two dance teachers were having dinner in the private room of a big hotel nearby. They had already drunk a lot of beer. The drunken female teacher patted the table and said jokingly, “The past few days, I had been thinking that you two definitely make a perfect couple. Kexin is a very pure and gentle girl. Xiao Bing, you are unlike other pianists. You have the masculine and aggressive character like a soldier, besides the temperament that artists should have. One is feminine and one is masculine, what a perfect couple!”

Liu Kexin blushed right down to her neck. She lowered her head and said shyly, “Ms. Gu, what are you talking about. Bing already has a girlfriend, and she is prettier than I am..”

When Xiao Bing was hospitalized, Ye Xiaoxi often went to take care of him. Liu Kexin and Ye Xiaoxi had, of course, met.

By this time, everyone had drunk too much. Liu Kexin was shy, her voice was as low as a mosquito. They didn’t hear it clearly, so Gu Xinxin went on talking. “Look, look at how cute Kexin is. You have to take care of this kid from now on. Such a pure and simple girl is not easy to find. Xiao Bing, what is your job now? A piano teacher? Or what?”

Xiao Bing smiled and said, “Ms. Gu..”

“Don’t call me Ms. Gu.” Gu Xinxin rolled her eyes at Xiao Bing. After she drank the alcohol, Gu Xinxin, who was usually elegant, was more charming now. She said, “I’m probably three or four years older than you. You can call me Sister Gu.”

“Okay.” Xiao Bing said with a smile, “You’ve been flattering me non-stop. I am in the art circle. This is just my hobby. I used to be a soldier. Now.. I am the chef and boss of a noodle house.”

“A noodle house?” Gu Xinxin widened her eyes.

Li Cuipeng was more shocked and said, “No.. No, Xiao Bing, according to your talent, how can you be work in such a place? Your piano level is high enough to have large-scale performances abroad. Boss and chef in a noodle house? No way. Don’t do it anymore, I will make recommendations for you and many companies will definitely want to sign a contract with you.”

“Yes.” Gu Xinxin was also angry about his lack of ambition and said, “If the professionals know that such a talented young is a chef and a businessman, they will be cursed. Do you know how rare it is to have a person with musical talent? According to your level, if you discipline yourself for a few years, you will even be on par with the world’s top pianists. Plus also your dancing skill is very good. ”

Xiao Bing gave a wry smile and said, “Please don’t try to persuade me. Everyone has his own ambition..”

The two teachers really appreciated talents. They tried to persuade him further, failing which they were forced to give up, but the expression of regret was overflowing.

This meal was a farewell meal for the two teachers too because Gu Xinxin and Li Cuipeng were going to leave tomorrow. For the two master-level dancers, every minute was precious. If it was not because they really appreciated Xiao Bing, they would not have stayed for one more night.

Xiao Bing originally proposed that they waited for him in the Northern Manor tomorrow and he would personally drive them, taking Liu Kexin along, but they refused. Xiao Bing had to let the people in the Northern Manor drive them tomorrow. Liu Kexin was very grateful for their careful guidance, and she was even reluctant to part with them.

Xiao Bing drove Gu Xinxin and Li Cuipeng to the Northern Manor and then took Liu Kexin home. Because of the happy mood, Liu Kexin, who rarely drank in the past, also drank some beer. She was sleeping in the passenger seat.

Xiao Bing drove the car slowly. He turned and looked at the little girl who was sleeping and saw that she had curled up her legs and hugged her arms around her chest. She was even pouting when she was sleeping, which looked cute. Xiao Bing couldn’t help but smile. “Let her sleep some more.”

Xiao Bing was driving very slowly. He took off his coat to cover Liu Kexin with. To be honest, Liu Kexin was kind, gentle, shy and simple, she had all the beauty of a woman. The feeling of purity could even make any girl in the world envy her but without hostility. And no man in the world would dare touch her, afraid that their fingers would contaminate her purity and innocence.

Xiao Bing had good feelings towards Liu Kexin, but it had nothing to do with love. The feeling he had for Yezi, when he was so flustered that his heart would pound continually, he never again felt towards any girl. For Liu Kexin, he wanted to protect her with all his heart, like protecting his own little sister, as if she was the last pure land in the world that had never been contaminated, and it had nothing to do with love.

Xiao Bing drove the car to Liu Kexin’s home and then stopped. He opened the door and got out of the car quietly. He lit a cigarette outside, put it in his mouth and smoked it.

The weather was very good that night. The moonlight was beautiful and the air was much fresher than the day. It was much cooler. Xiao Bing suddenly found that it’s been a long time since he’d had the chance to quietly enjoy nature. For so many years, he had been busy doing various tasks that he had forgotten to observe and enjoy life.

Xiao Bing went to the step of the opposite building and sat down. When he smoked the third cigarette, the door opened and Liu Kexin came out. She had been a little drunk. However, she immediately came awake because of the cool wind.

When Liu Kexin opened her eyes, she found that Xiao Bing’s coat was over her body and the car was quietly parked at the door. Xiao Bing was sitting on the front step and smoking a cigarette. Liu Kexin showed a sweet smile and placed the coat on the driver’s seat. She unfastened the seat belt and opened the door to get out.

Xiao Bing and Liu Kexin looked at each other, and Liu Kexin asked, “Why didn’t you wake me up?”historical

“I wanted you to sleep some more.”

Liu Kexin felt warm in her heart and she blushed, but it was not clear in the darkness. She walked up to Xiao Bing and sat down too.

“Brother Xiao, what are you thinking about?”

“Me? I am thinking that I have not enjoyed life in a long time.”

“Because you have been busy, right?” Liu Kexin asked very intimately.

“Yes.” Xiao Bing made a wry smile and said, “In fact, I don’t know what I’ve been busy about.”

Liu Kexin’s white hand gently reached out. Her palms faced up and stopped in front of Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing stared at this beautiful, white hand which was as soft as baby’s skin. He involuntarily swallowed and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Upstairs, Liu Kexin’s mother opened the window and saw Xiao Bing and Liu Kexin sitting side by side downstairs. She immediately waved to Liu Kexin’s father who was reading in the room and said, “Husband, come quickly.. Take a look and see what Kexin is doing.”

“What?” Liu Kexin’s father didn’t care and said, “Has Kexin come back? She must have walked home, what can she do?”

“No, she is downstairs and sitting with a man and having a romance!”

Liu Kexin’s dad’s eyes lit up and he immediately put down the book. He was really curious but pretended to be calm and composed, crossing his hands behind his back but actually, he was walking quickly toward the window.
