The weapon shop owner was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Miss Lu Qing, do you know Shanara?"
"ah?"
Lu Qing was stunned when she heard the weapons store owner's words, and then she remembered that she didn't seem to have said that she knew Shanara.
After thinking for a while, she said:
"I forgot to mention that Xiaorou and I are now actors in this opera performance. As for the roles we play, this needs to be kept secret!"
"!?"
When Beilis heard Lu Qing's words, her pupils suddenly opened wide and she said in surprise:
"Are you the actors in this opera?!"
"Of course." Fang Qingrou answered the question on Lu Qing's behalf.
"Oh, but I've never heard you talk about this before." Bellis said with a look of disbelief.
"You didn't ask us either." Fang Qingrou pretended to be helpless.
They didn't know that Shanara would actually have a relationship with the owner of the weapons store. When they usually passed by and talked to Bellis, they would never mention such a thing.
"this......."
Bellis was speechless and wanted to say something, but found that what Fang Qingrou said was right. She didn't ask why Lu Qing and Fang Qingrou told her such a thing?
At this time, the owner of the weapons store, who had already figured out his thoughts, looked at Lu Qing and said:
"If that's the question, there's someone in this room better suited to answer it than me."
"Who?"
Hearing the weapons shop owner's words, Lu Qing subconsciously looked at Bellis on the side.
Could it be said that Bellis and Shanara are familiar with each other?
If you think about it carefully, since the owner of the weapon shop knows Shanara, it makes no sense that Bellis doesn't know them. Moreover, Bellis and Shanara are still the same age, so they should have more topics in common.
Lu Qing was thinking this, but Bellis, who was being looked at by Lu Qing, shook her head and said:
"I can only say that Miss Shanara and I are just acquaintances, but we are not very familiar with each other. I think Miss Shanara is more like an object of my admiration than a friend."
Having said this, Bellis smiled and said: "I have been looking forward to the opera performed at the Fenghua Opera House for a long time. I must go and see it in a few days."
"Not Bellis?"
Lu Qing was stunned. Apart from Bellis and the owner of the weapons store, the people in this room who could answer her questions...
"No way."
Lu Qing turned around and looked at the old man sitting on the wooden chair, wondering if things were too coincidental.
Feeling Lu Qing's gaze, the old man snorted softly:
"Huh, Shanara is my granddaughter. Is there any problem?"
Is this how it unfolds!?
Although he was a little surprised, Lu Qing did not forget his purpose, so he asked:
"So, do you know what Miss Shanara likes?"
"What else does she like besides opera?" the old man said.
"..."
[The old man’s tone when he spoke didn’t sound very good. Of course, he didn’t act like this because he was unhappy with you, but the relationship between him and his granddaughter may not be as friendly as you imagined. 】
After looking at the notice board, Lu Qing thought for a moment and then asked:
"Besides opera, as Miss Shanara's grandfather, don't you even know what she likes?"
"She ran away from home when she was sixteen. How can I find out what she likes now?" the old man said angrily.
"Run away from home?"
Lu Qing felt as if she had learned some terrible news.
"snort!"
The old man snorted coldly and said:
"She has always wanted to be an opera director, but I'm not happy with it. What's the use of that kind of thing? I remember when we were still at war, the most worthless things were those bullshit arts!"
"But it's peace time after all, and I'm not that stubborn. I just wanted her to learn something useful. But she turned out to be nice. Not only did she not listen to me, she even left directly in the end."
"Later on, she became a famous opera director. I also saw her in the newspaper several times. Judging from her behavior, she probably doesn't want to come back."
"But just a month ago, they suddenly said that they were going to hold an opera here. Well, I think they are here to show me the results. I will not go to see something like that!"
When the old man said this, he became a little excited, and it was obvious that he was angry at his granddaughter's behavior of running away from home.
"Well, may I ask, where are Miss Shanara's parents?" Fang Qingrou asked in a low voice at this time.
Glancing at Fang Qingrou, the old man said: "He died during the war years."
"It's all in the past. I've let it go a long time ago." The old man waved his hands and said with a rather dissatisfied expression:
"She should be in Fenghua City now. Humph, she doesn't know how to come over and say something when she comes back!"
"Didn't she come to see you?" Lu Qing asked after hearing what the old man said.
"Of course, haven't I already said it?" the old man glared at Lu Qing and said.
"All right."
Lu Qing felt that she had roughly understood what happened.
Shanara wanted to be an opera director when she was young, but her grandfather did not want her to do so.
Then, perhaps because she reached the rebellious stage, Shanara ran away from home in order to realize her long-held dream.
Unlike other young criminals who had to come back after running away from home, Shanara not only did not get knocked down by society and came back dejected, but actually became a famous opera director.
And coming to Fenghua City to perform this time must be intentional.
But there may be many reasons for not coming to see the old man. According to Lu Qing's previous conversation with Shanara, the other party should want to see his grandfather, but he is too embarrassed to take the initiative to meet the old man.
The same is true for the old man. Although he wanted to meet his granddaughter whom he had not seen for many years, he never went because he could not let go.
In this way, after waiting for more than half a month and still not hearing any news about her grandfather, Shanara became what she was before.
"It's all Tsundere's fault!" Lu Qing thought in her heart.
The tsundere here, of course, refers to Shanara. It’s okay to be old and save face, but you are already in your twenties and you look so mature on the surface, why are you still so childish on the inside?
What’s wrong with taking the initiative to see your old man!?
After sorting out all the information obtained so far and analyzing it carefully, Lu Qing looked at the old man and said:
"I think..." Lu Qing paused and seemed a little hesitant:
"Miss Shanara wants to see you, but she's just a little embarrassed."
At this point, Lu Qing was ready to tell a white lie.
"She has actually mentioned before that she is waiting for someone, and she very much hopes that person can go to see the opera performance she conducts in person."
As Lu Qing finished speaking, a different light flashed in the old man's pupils...
