Like Bai Li?
Yes, Tang Xiaobao likes it very much.
But he would never admit it.
This question is too sensitive to answer.
So Tang Xiaobao just smiled and walked away.
Betty also laughed.
She let Tang Xiaobao go and didn't dwell on the issue.
It's not appropriate to dwell on this kind of thing any longer.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the car was a little depressing.
Each of them was thinking about their own things.
After driving for about half an hour, Bai Li seemed to suddenly realize it.
“Oh no!”
"What's wrong?" Tang Xiaobao was startled.
"I took the wrong road."
Tang Xiaobao was so embarrassed that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Betty rolled her eyes at him: "Didn't you ask either?"
Tang Xiaobao was speechless.
Okay, he admitted it.
Bai Li redirected the route again and drove for almost another hour before reaching the destination.
This place is close to the suburbs but is under the jurisdiction of the city, and there are factories nearby.
After stopping the car on a quiet street, Bai Li took Tang Xiaobao to a roadside shop.
The name of the store is simple.
Barbecue restaurant.
In fact, there is no store name.
The rolling shutter of the store was half-drawn, and there was still light inside.
With a loud noise, the rolling door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged man looked over with a smile.
When he saw Tang Xiaobao, the man's face changed drastically and he looked a little excited.
"Old Chen, is everything ready?"
Betty asked with a smile.
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Please sit down first. I'll go to the kitchen and prepare it. It will be ready soon. Just heat it up."
After saying that, he didn't say hello to Tang Xiaobao, but turned and went straight into the kitchen.
Tang Xiaobao and Bai Li walked in and found a table to sit down.
He now had a chance to take a good look at the shop.
There are four tables in total. The area of the store is very narrow, but it is very clean. There are many photos on one wall. What surprised Tang Xiaobao is that he recognized many of the people in these photos.
To be more precise, they are all big stars and influential figures in the circle.
Singers, movie stars, musicians...
Each of them hugged Lao Chen tightly, and it was obvious that they had a very good relationship with Lao Chen.
Suddenly, Tang Xiaobao became interested.
Old Chen, this man is not simple.
He suddenly thought of another detail.
Just now, one of Lao Chen's hands was kept tucked into his sleeve, as if it had been amputated?
And his legs seemed to be lame.
Tang Xiaobao looked at Bai Li and asked in a low voice, "Who is he?"
Bai Li replied: "Old Chen."
"No, I mean, he doesn't seem well?"
Bai Li looked a little sad as she whispered, "Old Chen's original name was Chen Qingzhi. He was also in our circle, a famous musician with a long career and exceptional talent. He was also very popular in the circle. Unfortunately, he later got into a serious car accident and had his hands and feet amputated. Many friends wanted to help him at the time, but money isn't enough for such things. Eventually, he retired and opened a small shop here. Those of us who had received his kindness would come to take care of his business, and more importantly, we wanted to tell him that we still remember him. You see that wall? It's full of photos of us and him. He didn't want to put them up at the time, but we strongly requested..."
Tang Xiaobao suddenly realized: "You mentioned Chen Qingzhi, I think I have some impression of him."
Bai Li rolled her eyes at him and said, "Is that all you have?"
"I wasn't in the circle before, and I don't chase stars."
Tang Xiaobao's embarrassed explanation.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't say anymore."
Betty waved her hand: "Let's be happy tonight, let's not talk about these sad things."
As he was speaking, Chen Qianzhi came out. He indeed had some trouble walking. He was holding two trays in his hands. He put them on the table and brought over a bottle of beer.
"Would you like something else to drink?"
Chen Qingzhi asked.
Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Forget it."
He really didn't want to trouble Chen Qianzhi because he had difficulty walking.
But Bai Li said, "How can that be possible? Tonight is the celebration party, I want to get drunk and die."
"What do you mean by drunken life and forest death?"
Tang Xiaobao was confused.
Bai Li smiled and said, "A cocktail. It's Old Chen's most famous specialty. I can tell you, apart from Old Chen, no other bartender in Yanjing City can make a drink like this. I guarantee you'll want more after you try it."
Cocktail chicken?
Tang Xiaobao had never drunk much before.
I've heard of this name, it sounds very impressive, but he's still a farmer at heart.
"Then try it."
Tang Xiaobao was also looking forward to it.
Old Chen smiled and said, "Okay, then you wait."
He returned to the kitchen.
Bai Li started eating the skewers and said, "I'm starving. Come on, eat. How's the celebration dinner tonight? Isn't it good?"
Tang Xiaobao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
not bad?
It's just... so simple...
But he only took one bite before his eyes widened.
"tasty."
He praised it sincerely.
Bai Li said proudly, "Don't be so cocky. Do you think you're the only genius in the world? I'm telling you, Old Chen is absolutely a genius. He's proficient in at least seven or eight instruments, and he can write lyrics and arrange music... He's considered the youngest master in the circle, a genius. It's a pity that he hardly touches music anymore. Why do you think so many people are vying to come here? Aren't they hoping to get some valuable information from him?"
