Huayu 2021: Isn’t he in the technology field?

Chapter 81 The actor's sense of belief, singing for you

At half past six, it finally got dark.

Jiang Qing and the other three looked at the dishes Zhou Ye served them and commented on the appearance before starting to eat.

After taking a sip and tasting it, Jiang Qing and the others looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

You know what, even though it’s a crash course, the taste is pretty good.

Zhou Ye specifically said that the beer fish was made by her. Jiang Qing ate a lot of it very enthusiastically, and the taste was surprisingly good.

Facing Zhou Ye's expectant eyes, he raised his hand and gave him a thumbs up.

Zhao Liying and others smiled at each other when they saw this, saying, "It's so good to be young!"
Zhou Ye was in a much more relaxed state at this moment than when he first met Li Xing and the other two. From the lively conversation between Jiang Qing and Li Xing when the dishes were served, he could tell that they seemed to be getting along quite well, and his originally tense mood gradually relaxed.

She remembered what Yao An had said just now in the kitchen.

"Don't worry, Xiaoye, he is Jiang Qing."

Only then did she suddenly realize what was going on and figure out the key point.

Yup!

Although the company has restrictions on her love life, if the object is Jiang Qing, they shouldn't have any objections, right?

even……

Are you eager to be with Jiang Qing?
"You guys eat first, there are guests coming, I'll go and greet them."

At this time, Zhou Ye saw the glass door being pushed open, and a couple was walking in with a toddler. He said something to Jiang Qing and the others, then smiled and went to greet them.

"Hello, welcome to the Chinese restaurant, please take a seat here."

Having put aside his worries, Zhou Ye smiled brightly. He raised his hand to guide the small family to a table and enthusiastically introduced the set meal of the Chinese restaurant to them. While waiting, he did not forget to tease the child. His eyes were smiling into two crescents, and his joy was visible to the naked eye.

Jiang Qing smiled and looked away from her, continuing to deal with the beer fish in front of him.

"Can we have some music? Otherwise it seems a bit dry."

At this time, Zhao Liying suddenly suggested.

Jiang Qing glanced at the staff member who was giving her instructions, then looked at the Xiaodu smart screen on the table, and curled up the corners of her lips in amusement.

He just noticed that this program was sponsored by Baidu. There was a Xiaodu smart screen on every table, including the front desk, and there was also a Xiaodu karaoke area in the corner.

"Sure, play some music."

Zhang Bichen agreed with a smile.

Obviously, they had greeted each other beforehand.

"Then let's use our Baidu Tiantian rotating smart screen T10 to play a song. How about a song by Bi Chen?"

Zhao Liying glanced at Jiang Qing and the others with a smile, her expression and movements were so natural.

"Okay."

Li Xing smiled and nodded in agreement.

Jiang Qing ate his food by himself, watching the three of them cooperate skillfully and secretly applauded them.

As expected, every profession has its own expertise. Look at how they cooperate.

"Xiaodu, Xiaodu."

Zhao Liying called out softly to the Xiaodu smart screen beside her.

"I'm here~"

"Come on, next second."

"The next second of Zhang Bichen is playing for you."

As the music prelude sounded, Zhao Liying turned her head to look at the camera beside her.

"The Baidu Tiantian rotating Xiaodu Smart Screen T10 is a smart screen that supports karaoke. It is convenient and easy to use. It is a must-have at home. It is really very useful~"

Looking at her sweet smiling face, Jiang Qing sighed that she didn't look like she had given birth to a child at all, while secretly approving of her professionalism.

He didn't feel embarrassed when reading out such an awkward broadcast. It shows that he has a strong sense of belief as an actor.

"President Jiang, please forgive me for making a fool of myself."

After the cameraman left, Zhao Liying looked at Jiang Qing with a smile and clasped her hands together.

She had a faint smile on her face the whole time, and it was obvious that she didn't really feel embarrassed.

"No, it's a new experience for me, and quite interesting."

Jiang Qing raised his eyebrows and smiled, saying it was nothing.

"If it weren't for you guys, I wouldn't have noticed Baidu was the title sponsor of this show."

He added with a smile.

"Boss Jiang...is he also familiar with Baidu?"

Hearing the familiarity in his words, Li Xing whispered tentatively.

Zhao Liying and the other person also focused their gazes on Jiang Qing's face curiously.

Jiang Qing put a piece of fish into his mouth, looked up and saw the reactions of several people, then nodded with a smile.

"Our circle isn't big, but it's not small either. We're bound to have some overlap."

He couldn't tell them that he had rejected Baidu and became a consultant for Xiaomi's smart voice assistant team.

"Oh~"

Li Xing and the others exchanged glances and had a rough idea in their minds.

We should know each other, but the relationship is average.

While they were chatting, Zhou Ye and Yao An were constantly receiving guests.

At seven o'clock, when the night was getting darker, the last table of guests had just ordered the sweet-scented osmanthus wine dumplings. Huang Xiaoming, holding his guitar, winked at Ding Zhen, but he dodged.

Zhou Ye, who was wiping the table, knocked over a water cup with his elbow. Jiang Qing quickly picked it up and shook it at her with a smile.

Zhou Ye lowered his head embarrassedly, and a short chuckle came out of the tip of his nose.

"How about letting our Ding Zhen give an impromptu performance?"

Yao Anna suddenly clapped her hands and cheered. Jiang Qing glanced over and found that it was Huang Xiaoming who was giving her a look.

Ding Zhen shrank back awkwardly until he was against the freezer door.

Jiang Qing put the water cup back to its original place, his fingertips lingered on the back of the chair behind Zhou Ye for half a second, and then hooked her scattered apron strings.

Huang Xiaoming hadn't known when he changed into a denim apron with the word "Chef" printed on it, and he pulled out a hand drum from under the bar like a magic trick.

"It's a tradition in our Chinese restaurant that all new employees have to perform."

He flipped his wrist and the drumhead formed a beautiful arc at his fingertips.

"Ding Zhen is singing a new song. How about Bi Chen singing the harmony?" "I... I haven't tuned my guitar yet..."

Before Ding Zhen finished speaking, Li Xing suddenly stood up and moved the high stool to the center of the restaurant, and her high heels tapped out a rhythm on the floor.

"When I was taking artists on promotional tours, I saw this kind of scene a lot."

She smiled and pushed Ding Zhen onto the stool.

"Don't be shy."

Zhang Bichen looked around in confusion, not understanding how she became the harmony?
"By the way, am I not a guest?"

"I'm here to have fun!"

She protested weakly.

"Okay, go ahead and show it off."

Zhao Liying patted her face lightly and encouraged her, wanting to watch the fun.

Zhou Ye was squatting beside the freezer looking for a drink when he suddenly felt the light above his head dim.

Jiang Qing was leaning on the table peeling a tangerine, her slender shadow just covering the tips of her red ears.

"Rock sugar bayberry juice is on the second layer."

He knocked on the freezer door seemingly unintentionally, put the peeled orange segments on a celadon plate, and quietly pushed it to a position within her reach.

"Oh~ Thank you."

Zhou Ye responded softly, glanced around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he quickly pinched a piece and put it in his mouth.

"Mmm~ So sweet!"

She narrowed her eyes slightly, pursed her lips into a satisfied smile, and looked like a well-behaved puppy.

At this time, the customers in the store began to make a fuss and applauded.

Ding Zhen took a deep breath, and began his singing the moment his fingertips swept across the strings.

When the clear voice sounded, Zhao Liying suddenly took out a makeup mirror and used it as a cymbal. Zhang Bichen followed the melody and used chopsticks to hit the blue and white porcelain bowl, gently following the harmony. The ding-dong sound formed a rhythm of its own.

Jiang Qing leaned against the bar counter and wiped the red wine glass. Zhou Ye's swaying ponytail was always reflected in the mirror.

She was standing on tiptoe to hand a marshmallow to a little kid, with an innocent and romantic smile on her face, exactly the same as that kid's.

"The chorus! The chorus is coming!"

Yao Anna suddenly pulled Zhou Ye to the front row. Zhou Ye immediately understood what she meant and started clapping and cheering with her.

Ding Zhen's fingers plucking the strings almost became shadows under the light. When she sang the line "There is the moonlight of the entire Dongting Lake in your eyes", Zhou Ye felt someone touch her hand hanging by her side.

Turning around, she saw Jiang Qing cutting a melon behind the bar. The fruit knife on the chopping board kept the rhythm precisely, and the roses she carved happened to be placed in the bowl that she had broken in the morning. A faint joy arose in her heart.

Huang Xiaoming had touched the accordion at some point and joined the ensemble in an orderly manner.

Li Xing was flying around the room with a Polaroid camera in his hand. The moment the film came out, he caught Zhou Ye secretly glancing at Jiang Qing with affection.

This little girl is still pretending in front of me!
"another one!"

When the last wisp of piano music faded away, the Northeastern brother who had drunk three pots of Longjing tea stood up and slammed the table, making the dishes rattle.

The music teacher who came to dinner with her daughter took out her ocarina and gave an impromptu accompaniment. The little girls in Hanfu came to Ding Zhen with selfie sticks in hand, smiling sweetly and taking pictures non-stop.

Zhou Ye stumbled backward due to the crowd's push, and suddenly a warm palm pressed against his lower back.

“Watch out for the display stand.”

Jiang Qing's voice mixed with the hot breath passed by her ears. The hand that was supporting her was immediately withdrawn after Zhou Ye stood firm, making her think in a trance that the touch just now was just an illusion.

When Ding Zhen sang "The evening breeze at Orange Island remembers your look back" for the second time, Zhou Ye found a plum wrapped in candy paper in her apron pocket. It was the plum that Jiang Qing caught her eating secretly in the kitchen in the afternoon.

She turned to look at Jiang Qing and saw him leaning against the front desk, staring at Ding Zhen, his lips moving slightly, as if he was singing along with the chorus.

"whee……"

The girl couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle, and in an instant her eyes and eyebrows were filled with a sweet smile.

When the last chord sounded, Huang Xiaoming suddenly brought out steaming sugar-coated rice cakes from the kitchen.

"This is our Ding Zhen's cheering snack!"

The golden glutinous rice balls trembled in the porcelain plate, and Zhou Ye and Yao An came forward enthusiastically to help distribute them.

Zhao Liying and Zhang Bichen took over from Ding Zhen and walked forward together to sing "Starry Sky Silhouette".

Professionalism is indeed different. The moment Zhang Bichen opened her mouth, all the guests in the restaurant stopped what they were doing and looked at her.

Jiang Qing swayed gently along with the singing. Although there was the noise source of Zhao Liying, it was not a big problem because of the suppression of Zhang Bichen's high notes. Her voice was almost inaudible.

"Jiang Qing, you sing so beautifully, would you like to sing a song too?"

At this time, Zhou Ye, who had finished distributing the things, saw Li Xing busy taking pictures of Zhao Liying and the other person, so he tiptoed up to Jiang Qing and made a suggestion while covering his mouth.

"You want to hear me sing?"

Jiang Qing looked at her sideways, and a hint of tenderness suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Well, you sing well."

Zhou Ye looked up at him with her pretty face, a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

"In this case……"

Jiang Qing deliberately prolonged the WeChat message.

"Then I won't sing."

Watching the girl's expression change from anticipation to confusion, and then to baring her little white teeth, the smile in his eyes almost overflowed.

He suddenly leaned over and whispered in her ear.

"It's too noisy today. I'll sing for you next time."

"Well...alone."

Zhou Ye stared blankly at Jiang Qing's face which was slowly moving away, and suddenly smiled.

"Ok!"

"Then I want to order a song!"

She asked excitedly.

"no problem."

Jiang Qing raised the corners of his lips slightly and agreed immediately.

"hey-hey……"

The girl tilted her head, revealing a row of neat teeth, and her smile was as bright as the camellia in the mountains.
