In the afternoon of Thursday, the road east of the University of Trade and Economic Cooperation was smooth. Pedestrians in twos and threes were on the sidewalks on both sides of the road.
Indeed, as Ye Jing said, the distance was not far. Jing Gao stepped on the accelerator and reached the intersection where he turned left.
Then I found that the agreed teahouse was on the opposite side of the road. Jing Gao needed to drive to the intersection ahead and make a U-turn.
Deng Ran smiled awkwardly and said apologetically: "Mr. Jing, I'm sorry. I'm not familiar with the road conditions here."
Jing Gao held the steering wheel and said with a smile: "No need to apologize for this. It's just a small matter. You haven't taken your driver's license test yet, right?"
There are many roads that you can only know the road conditions by driving on them.
"Yeah. I usually pass by here and don't notice it." Deng Ran chuckled in relief, his teeth slightly exposed, and there was a hint of delicate charm flowing through him.
Turning from the intersection, Jing Gao's cell phone rang. After the call was connected, Li Wei's voice came from inside, "Master Jing, I'm sorry to bother you. I have already reached an agreement with the other party to purchase the company with the license plate. The price is 17, tomorrow
You can go through the transfer procedures in the morning."
Jing Gao said: "Okay. I will transfer the money to you via Alipay later." After a pause, he said: "Li Wei, I am short of someone to handle things. Are you interested in having dinner together in the evening? You can give me an answer after you think about it."
"
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Wei was calling Jing Gao under the shadow of a low-rise building in Dongyun District.
Hearing the words in the receiver, Li Wei suddenly felt like tears were filling his eyes. He had "worked" for Jing Gao in the past two days, and all the favors he had in front of Huang Shao were used up. He made a desperate bet on Jing Gao.
Yesterday, he and Jing Gao unexpectedly met at Jingxin University, but they couldn't talk about anything on that occasion. He planned to mention it to Jing Gao when he went through the transfer procedures tomorrow.
Li Wei suppressed his excitement and expressed his position: "Master Jing, don't think about it. I can give you an answer now. I am willing to follow you."
Jing Gao smiled and said, "Okay. At seven o'clock in the evening, I will treat you to dinner at Fulinmen on the 4th floor of the China World Hotel. We will meet and discuss in detail."
"OK."
Jing Gao hung up the phone on Li Wei, thought about it, handed the phone to Deng Ran in the passenger seat, and said with a natural expression: "Deng Ran, please leave me a phone number."
Deng Ran was visibly stunned for a moment, then smiled coquettishly and slightly shyly, and said softly: "Oh." He entered the number on his mobile phone and dialed her mobile phone.
She really didn't expect that Mr. Jing would ask for her phone number. The confidence brought by her appearance disappeared long ago in front of Jing Gao.
As a student who is about to enter her senior year and enter the society, she is not indifferent to wealth. Otherwise, she would not feel restrained when sitting in a luxury car.
Of course she noticed Mr. Jing's admiring gaze on her. So, why did Mr. Jing take the initiative to ask for her phone number?
Jing Gao parked the blue Lamborghini on the road outside the Industrial and Commercial University. The sign of the teahouse was facing the car window. Ye Jing hadn't come over yet.
Taking the mobile phone handed back by Deng Ran, Jing Gao smiled and suggested: "Teacher Ye is not here yet. Let's wait in the car."
He and Deng Ran had just met today, and their relationship was only a little stronger than strangers. According to his previous understanding, there was a vague communication boundary between her and Deng Ran. What could be said and what could not be said were all here.
Therefore, if he had been in Shenhao's "adaptation period" a few days ago, he would not have chosen to directly ask for her phone number.
But now, he directly and proactively breaks this boundary.
Deng Ran adjusted his glasses and said obediently: "Okay."
…
…
Ye Jing came over in high heels. She made a phone call and took Jing Gao and Deng Ran to the teahouse to order a pot of tea and sit down.
After a while, a woman in her early thirties with a bun came in. She had an average appearance, was a bit fat, was of medium height, and was wearing a light gray cultural shirt, which was very fashionable.
The three of them stood up at the tea seat.
Ye Jing introduced both parties with a smile, "Sister Panpan, this is Mr. Jing Gao, who wants to learn singing. Mr. Jing, this is teacher Wu Panpan from the Beijing Conservatory of Music."
Wu Panpan smiled and shook hands with Jing Gao, sat down and introduced: "Mr. Jing, I am a teacher of the Vocal Opera Department of Jingyin. Jingjing told me your idea. Everyone has their own opinions on how to sing pop music.
, techniques. But basic things like voice training and qi training are the same. I can provide help in this regard."
Jing Gao smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Teacher Wu."
Wu Panpan nodded.
Ye Jing interjected: "Sister Panpan, how much does one class usually cost for you? How many classes do you have per week?"
Wu Panpan looked at Muang Jinggao, "Let's have three classes a week. I'll reserve a singing practice room here at the Industrial and Business University. It'll be in the evening during the week. It can be in the morning or afternoon on the weekends. We'll agree on the specific time at least one day in advance."
Jing Gao said smoothly: "Okay."
Wu Panpan said again: "I charge 1,200 for one class. According to Mr. Jing's idea, for the basics, it is estimated that there will be about twelve classes, and the rest will be practiced by yourself. If you have any questions in the future, you can come back to me."
I will charge the tuition fee in one lump sum first. If you don’t take enough classes or feel it is not suitable, you can refund it. I brought the contract with me.”
"Okay!"
After Jing Gao agreed, he briefly browsed the contract and signed it. Ye Jing paid.
After the conversation, he paid the bill from the teahouse and saw Teacher Wu Panpan off at the door.
Jing Gao shook hands with Ye Jing and Deng Ran again and said goodbye, and said gracefully: "Teacher Ye, our matter is settled. Nice to meet you and Deng Ran. Goodbye!"
Ye Jing smiled and said "hmm", waved her hand, and watched Jing Gao drive away. The huge stone in her heart completely disappeared. This was better than she expected. She said in a great mood: "Come on, Ran Ran, I'll treat the two of us to do it."
Go to a SPA.”
Deng Ran followed his friend and asked quietly: "Sister Jing, Mr. Jing asked for my phone number and WeChat, what do you mean by him?"
Ye Jing was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Well, Ranran, you were pretending in front of me just now. We were separated for just a few minutes, and you guys hooked up?"
Deng Ran whacked her a few times, "Go away. What an ugly word. I just left my contact information and we will contact you later. What am I trying to do by hooking up with a super rich young man? Do you think my life is too comfortable?"
The two of them chatted and laughed and headed to the annex building of the Kempinski Hotel not far away.
…
…
Jing Gao drove away from the gate of Beijing Technology and Business University and headed straight to the International Trade Center. It is now four o'clock in the afternoon.
He needs to go there a little early. There are often traffic jams on the roads in Beijing during commuting hours.
The afternoon sun shines on the spacious road, with traffic flowing back and forth.
First, he sent a message to Su Qing, explaining the situation and asking her to take leave tomorrow morning. While driving, Jing Gao reflected on his daily life.
This afternoon's "negotiation" about compensation unexpectedly resolved his search for a music teacher. He wanted to talk to Li Wei tonight and made an appointment with Teacher Wu to start class tomorrow night.
In fact, the greater gain is another point.
Since last night, he has been thinking about what Shenhao's new life will be like after his "adaptation period". He probably understands now: trial and error!
He is now more confident and confident, so he will try more in life.
For example, if he directly asked for Deng Ran's phone number, there was actually a certain probability that he would be rejected. But he still did it.
Shenhao's life will be exciting. But there are all kinds of explicit and implicit rules and boundaries in life that constrain us.
Since he is a powerful person, some rules may not apply to him. Or, he can easily cross certain boundaries.
Of course, you can't do anything illegal.
His next "new life" should be about constant attempts, trial and error, and ultimately allowing himself to grow and get out of the "novice stage".
