Nepotism

Qi Lan tidied up and called Cheng Song. She didn't ask Cheng Song to come to Tang Lin to pick her up, but invited him to a restaurant on the Champs Elysees.

Cheng Song was a little surprised that Qi Lan actually wanted to invite him to dinner.

He felt a little strange, but he parked the car and walked in.

Qi Lan had already arrived.

With a glance, it was easy to find where she was.

She wore a black British windbreaker with a stand-up collar, and she looked fresh and capable. Her hair stood up high behind her head, and without the broken hair on her cheeks, her outline looked more clearly recognizable.

Cheng Song unconsciously took a breath, he thought from the bottom of his heart that Qi Lan should go to filming.

Because she really has a photogenic face, you know how rare it is.

Qi Lan kept watching the direction of the door, and when he saw Cheng Song coming in, he stood up and waved to him.

Cheng Song walked over and sat down, and began to concentrate on his assistant's work in a serious manner.

"Sister Lan, I just took a look at the addresses and information of several houses sent by Sister Tang Lin. I think we can start from here after lunch. I remember that there is one nearby." Cheng Song said to himself afternoon plans.

Qi Lan didn't interrupt the other party hastily. After Cheng Song finished speaking, Qi Lan said, "I've already visited the one nearby."

Cheng Song was taken aback.

Qi Lan took out another envelope from her pocket and handed it to Cheng Song.

Cheng Song didn't even need to open it to see what was inside.

That's money, depending on the thickness, it's still a lot of money.

Cheng Song didn't reach out to touch the envelope, but just looked up into Qi Lan's eyes.

"Sister Lin has already paid the assistant's salary." Cheng Song whispered.

Qi Lan smiled and shook her head, "This is what I personally want to give you. Thank you for your hard work during this time."

Qi Lan's eyes were bright and sincere, which made Cheng Song feel a little panicked.

This student who had just stepped out of the school and had always regarded himself as calm and smooth in dealing with things before finally showed a trace of uneasiness.

He hesitated for a long time, and finally asked the question in his heart: "Is it because I called Sister Tang Lin?"

He heard Qi Lan's plan for the future that night, and the next day he told Tang Lin everything he heard that day. Qi Lan probably already knew about it.

As soon as Qi Lan heard it, he knew that Cheng Song had lost his mind.

Qi Lan quickly explained: "You think too much, even if you don't tell, Sister Lin will know sooner or later, besides, I never wanted to hide it from anyone."

When she said this, her expression was very calm, without any pretense.

But in this way, Cheng Song didn't understand even more, "Sister Lan, you should know, now..."

"There is no market for a singer when releasing records now." Qi Lan said with a smile.

Yes, that's the case, since everything is clear, why do you have to make such a choice?Cheng Song really didn't understand.

"Cheng Song, that's the main reason why I came here today." Qi Lan stirred a cup of coffee in front of her, "You are a very good boy, and I don't think your purpose is to give me such an unknown As an artist assistant, I don't know what method Sister Lin used to convince you, but I think it's a bit overqualified. If you go to any other artist, you will have a better development than following me."

Cheng Song neither admitted nor denied it.

"I am a person. I think sister Lin must have introduced my situation to you, but I am a little stubborn. I will not die until the Yellow River. I don't want to delay you, and I also bless you." Qi Lan stopped his hands, The small spoon lightly bumped against the wall of the cup, making a crisp sound.

"Do you know that your choice may not only bury your money, but also bury the most precious time of a female artist?" Cheng Song asked.

Qi Lan nodded, "I know, but I can only be a singer in my life."

Cheng Song heaved a long sigh. This person understands everything, and she understands everything. She didn't make a random choice. She knew all the difficulties and the most painful results that she might encounter on this road, but even so She still did not change her original intention, even if the price was a short life alone in the long years.

The most sensible choice for Cheng Song is to accept Qi Lan's money, then turn around and leave.

But in fact, Cheng Song didn't follow the choice he thought was the most reasonable.

He pushed the envelope back in front of Qi Lan.

This time it was Qi Lan's turn to be surprised.

"This is you?" Qi Lan asked.

"I want to continue to maintain a cooperative relationship with you, Sister Lan, so I will not accept this money. I will only accept your salary as my salary. It's just a pity that Sister Lin has already given you the money last time, so this..." Cheng The loose index finger gently coughed on the envelope, "I can only return this to you."

Qi Lan was taken aback, "You shouldn't be wasting time on me."

"Then why are you wasting time on the road of being a singer? There are obviously better choices?" Cheng Song asked, but in the end he asked himself and answered, "Actually, I just want to see what it will be like in the end, compared to Entering Tianyi and starting from the bottom, I think it is really more challenging to be your assistant and walk with you for a while."

Qi Lan couldn't laugh or cry, where did Tang Lin get such a guy.

"But I also have a request." Cheng Song said.

Qi Lan nodded, signaling to the other party but saying it's okay.

"If one day we succeed, then your manager can only be me, not sister Lin." Cheng Song rarely showed a sly smile, "Well, you don't need to rush to answer me."

Cheng Song looked very confident, even Qi Lan laughed when he saw him like this.

The two had lunch, and after Qi Lan paid the bill, Cheng Song put Qi Lan's envelope into her pocket, this time Qi Lan did not refuse.

The two walked out of the restaurant one after the other, Cheng Song raised his hand and opened the electronic lock, and the car not far away made some harsh noises.

"Sister Lan, you just said that you have visited the nearby one, what do you think?"

Qi Lan is a person who always speaks directly, "don't think about it".

Cheng Song fastened his seat belt and started the car, "Let's go from south to north and look at these houses in order."

Qi Lan nodded. She originally thought the same way, so naturally she would not object.

The Champs-Elysees is a wide north-south road. It is a certain distance from the city center and does not form a large commercial circle. However, the traffic is very convenient and extends in all directions. Therefore, there are many residences on both sides of the Champs-Elysees. district.

Qi Lan especially likes the rows of sycamore trees on both sides of the road.

This allowed her to unconsciously think of many songs about phoenix trees and fallen leaves. There was no car music in Tang Lin's car, and the two of them were driving very quietly without any conversations. Every time at this time, Qi Lan would unconsciously Humming a few melodies, some are well-known and well-known, and of course there are some unknown ones, but Cheng Song thinks they are very nice.

At first Cheng Song felt that it was a pity that Qi Lan did not become an actor, but now it seems that it is also a pity if he cannot sing.

After seeing two of them one after another, Qi Lan finally shook his head and backed out.

At this moment, in front of the two of them is the only house that has not been seen yet.

The neighborhood in front of me is called Champs Elysees, and Champs Elysees Avenue is also named after this neighborhood.

This was also what Tang Lin was least optimistic about, so she hesitated and left the address to Qi Lan.

After all, her and Qi Lan's ideas have always been completely different. She feels that some old and quiet neighborhoods might catch Qi Lan's eyes instead.

The reality is really going towards Tang Lin's assumption, and Qi Lan really has his eyes on this place.

The community in the Champs Elysees is the most green she has seen today, with trees and flowers that complement each other, it is a place that can make people's eyes shine as long as they step in.

In Tang Lin's eyes, the mottled walls did not attract Qi Lan's attention more than the creepers all over the wall.

Cheng Song thought she might be paying attention here.

Along the way, Cheng Song saw many old people and children taking a walk in the sun in the afternoon. It is a good choice for young and not yet popular artists to live here, so they will not be conspicuous or disturbed.

The landlord is a lady who looks to be in her sixties. Although her attire is not rich, she is clean and decent, and her attitude is very kind. When she saw Qi Lan, she first held Qi Lan's hand, like a close neighbor's grandmother.

She briefly introduced the neighborhood and the house, then took out the key and opened the door for Qi Lan.

There are two households in one building, facing each other. According to the landlord, the next door to Qi Lan is a girl who looks about her age, and she also lives alone.

Qi Lan's house is on the right. Open the door and you will find a spacious two-bedroom and one living room with solid wood flooring and beige plain wallpaper. The clean and warm feeling alone has already won the favor of Qi Lan and Cheng Song .

The whole house looks completely different from the inside and the outside. The old building is completely new inside, clean as new.

It is here.

Qi Lan smiled.

The landlord obviously didn't expect Qi Lan to make a choice so quickly, and seemed to sign a contract with him immediately and pay a deposit.

The landlady said a little helplessly, "Do you want to take another look?"

Qi Lan shook her head with a smile, "No need, I think it's very good here."

The landlady smiled and looked at Qi Lan with a loving face, "You young girls are really refreshing."

Qi Lan and the landlord's wife finished the rental procedures and paid one year's rent, and then returned to Tang Lin's residence in Cheng Song's car. During this time, she also received a call from Tang Lin, knowing that the other party had an engagement party at night and would be late to come back.

Qi Lan moved the things left at Tang Lin's house to Cheng Song's car first, and asked Cheng Song to help him transport them to his new home.

The remaining bits and pieces were put into her suitcase, and they were going to take them there together tomorrow morning after saying goodbye to Tang Lin.

After tossing back and forth twice, it was already dark.
