Chapter 110 Xu Songning, You've Got It
Xu Songning felt a weight on her stomach, instantly waking her up.
Looking to the side, Zhou Qiao was fast asleep, her hand in a cast pressed against her stomach, which she was using as a pillow.
Xu Songning was both amused and exasperated. She gently put the phone back, then her hand groped precisely for the phone on the bedside table. She opened WeChat and saw several new work messages, but Xiang Yun had not replied.
She was getting a little irritated. She knew perfectly well that Xiang Yun probably wouldn't find out, but she was still secretly anxious.
Will it get deleted? Just like last time.
Xu Songning subtly sent a "Good morning" emoji, and the message was successfully sent, indicating that he hadn't been deleted.
After sending the message, she immediately turned off her phone screen, not wanting to wait for a reply.
She stretched and tiptoed out of bed.
Zhou Qiao's kitchen is large and is regularly cleaned; there isn't a single oil stain on the ceramic tile.
Of course, there was nothing in the refrigerator either.
Xu Songning opened all the compartments in disbelief: a bottle of salad dressing, ten bottles of ice-cold beer, a row of yogurt... there wasn't a single food item that could replenish the body's basic energy.
She really wanted to drag the person on the bed up, shake them awake, and ask Zhou Qiao how she usually survived.
After searching for a long time, I finally found a few buckets of instant noodles in the storage compartment. The expiration date was about to expire.
Xu Songning suppressed her temper, threw away all the trash that Zhou Qiao had collected, and went out to buy some fresh food. Worried that it would be inconvenient for her to cook, she only bought some frozen dumplings and glutinous rice balls.
It's better than her being so hungry that she has to eat expired instant noodles.
As soon as the packaged braised noodles and braised pig's feet were opened, noises could be heard in the room.
Zhou Qiao, who was fast asleep, finally got out of bed. The efficiency with which she changed her clothes convinced Xu Songning that this woman truly didn't need anyone's help.
Zhou Qiao hugged Xu Songning tightly, nuzzling against her neck. "Ahhh, Sister Xu is the best! She even prepared breakfast for me. I woke up the moment I smelled the aroma of my favorite braised noodles!"
"Go wash up and eat." Xu Songning pushed away the fluffy short-haired head, which rubbed against her neck, making her feel itchy.
Zhou Qiao clung to her affectionately, swaying her with one arm around her waist; it was so irresistible.
"You're not going to eat pig's feet? Then I'll throw them away?" Xu Songning threatened her.
"No way!" Zhou Qiao immediately let go of her and quickly went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. She squeezed a pea-sized amount of toothpaste onto her toothbrush, but then she remembered something important.
"Songning, check my phone for any new messages!"
Last night, Xu Songning put her in airplane mode. In the middle of the night, she remembered that her business partner might be looking for her, so she struggled to get up and turned off airplane mode, putting her phone on vibrate mode instead.
Xu Songning opened her phone. There were no new calls, but a bunch of messages from clients, employees, Zhou Qiao's parents, etc. She automatically ignored the messages that she needed to handle herself and finally saw a few messages from Shan Shan.
"Qiaoqiao, someone named Shanshan sent you a message," Xu Songning reminded her.
Zhou Qiao, brushing her teeth, shouted loudly with her words muffled, "Song Ning, click to see what she said."
The washroom was a bit far from the restaurant, so Xu Songning walked over and leaned against the door of the washroom to read the news.
She clicked into the chat window and glanced at it, roughly figuring out who this Shanshan was.
Seeing that Xu Songning remained silent for a long time, Zhou Qiao became a little nervous. She said some angry words to Qian Shanshan, telling her that if she didn't want to work anymore, she should quit. But if Qian Shanshan really quit, she wouldn't be able to find a suitable replacement in a short time.
"What did she say? She's not quitting, is she?!"
Xu Songning glanced at her, placed her phone in front of her, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Boss Zhou to be so decisive, actually trying to fire someone the day before the performance."
The past was too painful to recall, so Zhou Qiao closed her eyes tightly before daring to look at the messages.
Qian Shanshan: Boss Zhou, I made a mistake. I apologize and will explain everything to Qin You. He's already back in Fuzhou, and there won't be any problems with tonight's performance. I have a clear plan for the band's development and future. I hope you can trust me one more time.
Zhou Qiao brushed her teeth slowly, feeling relieved. Qin Youren had gone back, and her agent was safe for the time being, so she wouldn't cause any more trouble. She had nothing to worry about.
It's just unknown what Qin You's mindset was when he returned to Fuzhou, given his personality. I originally thought he would make a huge scene, at least with his agent, but judging from Qian Shanshan's attitude, Qin You didn't cause her any trouble.
While wiping her face, Zhou Qiao said, "It's good that things are moving in a good direction. I just don't know how that stubborn mule Qin You came to his senses. Knowing his temper, he won't stop until he makes a huge scene."
"Shouldn't he be grown up by now? He's 23 years old. If he can mess around with his career as he pleases, I really look down on him." Xu Songning sat back down at the table and picked up a piece of spiced pig's trotter.
The pig's trotters are stewed until tender and juicy, full of collagen, and each bite is delicious.
Zhou Qiao had been craving this for a long time. After washing her face, she ran over and picked up a piece of pig's trotter with her bare hands, only to be mercilessly slapped on the back of her hand by Xu Songning.
"Oh, this is so delicious!" Zhou Qiao exclaimed, showing no intention of using chopsticks.
Xu Songning sighed and pushed the remaining pig's trotters in front of her, "Eat more, you can replenish what you have."
"Don't think I don't understand that you're insulting me!" Zhou Qiao snorted and pulled the bowl in front of her. "I can definitely finish a few pig's trotters."
"I didn't insult you." Xu Songning couldn't help but laugh, and the pig's trotter between his chopsticks almost fell out of the bowl.
After playing around enough, the two finally quieted down and ate their noodles.
While processing WeChat messages, Zhou Qiao chatted with Xu Songning, complaining about so many things at work that she could talk about for three days and three nights straight.
Xu Songning could occasionally offer some advice and help her resolve the troubles at the bar.
But a part of her mind was still on WeChat; Xiang Yun hadn't replied yet.
This made her somewhat irritable. The unresolved danger left her feeling lost and disliked this sense of insecurity. She was eager to know the outcome of her probing.
"Hahaha, this is really funny, look..." Zhou Qiao showed her phone to Xu Songning.
Xu Songning didn't answer, but nodded absentmindedly, "Funny."
Without even lifting an eyelid, Zhou Qiao grumbled, "Song Ning, you're being too perfunctory. What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for Captain Xiang to reply? It's been so long, why hasn't he replied yet? Did he find out and delete you again?"
Sure enough, Lu Xiaomeng couldn't keep a secret and told Zhou Qiao about this embarrassing incident.
Xu Songning no longer cared about this matter, after all, Zhou Qiao shared a bigger secret with her. She sighed, resting her chin on her hand, "She didn't delete me, but she hasn't replied to my messages yet, which is a bit annoying."
"It's a bit annoying, you're getting carried away." Zhou Qiao advised her with the tone of someone who's been there, "Xu Songning, you're starting to care whether a man replies to your messages or not."
Xu Songning's heart skipped a beat, but she quickly found a reason for herself. What was it? She was just worried that Xiang Yun would find out about this, and she didn't know how the two of them would get along in the future, or whether they could still be friends.
Xu Songning deceived himself, thinking: Yes, that's what I'm worried about!
"Quack".
Xu Songning's phone, which was on the table, lit up.
There is a message from Xiang Yun.
Both hands reached for the phone almost simultaneously.
