Chapter 44: Be More Careful
Xia Lili found erythromycin eye ointment at Xia Xubai's house. While applying the ointment to the wound on Xia Xubai's arm, she said, "Brother, next time you go to Boss Jiang's music store, can you take me with you?"
"Now that my job is stable and I have more time, I also want to learn a musical instrument~"
Xia Xubai nodded: "Sure, I'll call you next time I go to the music store."
Xia Lili applied medicine to Xia Xubai's wound.
Xia Xubai couldn't help but ask, "Lili, why don't you let me participate in this original song competition?"
——"This original song collection competition is organized by Chaoyin Company."
Xia Lili knew his brother didn't surf the internet much, so he explained, "Shangguan Xu works for Chaoyin Company."
Xia Xubai was stunned when he heard this.
He frowned. “There are so many contestants, I might not make the cut. Should that be okay?”
Seeing Xia Xubai like a frightened rabbit, Xia Lili patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Let's wait and see what happens."
"Just pretend nothing happened and live your life as usual."
"Leave the rest to us police, trust us!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Xubai turned to Xia Lili.
He felt that his sister had matured a lot in recent times, and it actually gave him, as her brother, a sense of reliability.
Xia Lili felt that it was no longer safe for her brother to live here, but it would take some time to apply for family housing in the police compound.
Thinking that Mi Wei'er still had two apartments to rent out, she called Mi Wei'er.
"Sister Weiwei, have you rented out your other two apartments?"
"My friend wants to rent it for a month, is that okay?"
Xia Lili didn't dare say that she was renting the house for her brother, for fear that Mi Weiler would waive the rent for her again, which would be too embarrassing.
Mi Wei'er on the other end of the phone said readily: "Sure!"
"I don't have the energy to care about renting out the house now. Your friend can rent it however he wants, as long as he doesn't tear down the house."
"You set the rent, and you help me collect the rent. The money from the short-term rental will be your pocket money!"
Xia Lili was stunned: "Huh?"
Mi Wei'er's voice sounded very excited: "Li Li!"
"I received good news!"
"I thought of making an appointment with you for dinner tomorrow morning. I'll tell you when I treat you to dinner."
"But now that you've called, I just can't help but share it with you!"
Xia Lili glanced at the date and seemed to know what good news Mi Weiler was going to tell her.
——"I was chosen by the crew of "Broken Moon Jue" to play the fourth female role!"
"The first time I'm starring in a TV drama is with my idol!!"
“I still feel like I’m dreaming.”
Mi Wei'er's voice was choked with sobs, "Lili, thank you."
"Although I know I've said thank you many times, but thank you so much."
"If you hadn't rescued me that day, I might have been abducted abroad and would never have known that I was chosen as Female Number Four."
Mi Wei'er felt heartbroken when she thought of this result.
Just a little bit!
She was about to miss out on her dream and be abducted into hell on earth.
Thanks to Xia Lili.
Even though we had only known each other for less than a day, this girl tried her best to save me.
Now I have a promising future, and it can be said that it is all thanks to Xia Lili.
Although Xia Lili had already guessed the result, she couldn't help but feel happy, "Sister Wei'er, thank you."
"You were chosen because you have potential and talent."
——"Even if I have potential and talent, I still have to live to show it to others!"
Mi Wei'er always feels scared when she thinks of that day.
"I'll treat you to the most expensive restaurant in Yangcheng tomorrow!"
"When I become famous in the entertainment industry and can call the shots, I'll arrange for you to meet anyone you want!"
"If you want stars, I'll pick them for you!"
Xia Lili smiled when she heard Mi Wei'er's bold words: "Okay, I'll wait for the future superstar to take me to fly!"
Hang up the phone.
"Brother, come move in and live in the same neighborhood with me."
Xia Lili's tone was light but unyielding.
Seeing Xia Xubai hesitate to speak, she shook her phone and said, "I just asked a friend to find me a nice house. It has great lighting and excellent soundproofing. It's perfect for your creative work."
She paused, blinking deliberately. "As for the rent... just think of it as my sister investing in the original shares of a future great composer."
Xia Xubai's fingers tightened slightly as Xia Lili held his hand, and a warm touch came from his palm.
His throat tightened a little: "Lili, can I..."
"What can I do?"
Xia Lili interrupted him directly, "When I was in high school, who saved up money to buy me supplementary teaching materials?"
"Who brings me food regardless of weather conditions?"
She suddenly leaned closer and gave him a sly smile: "Now it's my turn to protect you, great composer!"
Xia Xubai's eyes felt a little hot.
His eyesight was not so bad when he was young. The little girl with ponytails in his memory has now grown into an independent young lady.
He ruffled Xia Lili's hair, just like he did when she was a child: "It's a deal, when I write a song and it's successful..."
"I'll hand over all the copyright fees!" Xia Lili immediately responded, holding up three fingers as if swearing. "I want to buy the most expensive bag and live in a large flat with a river view!"
"good."
Xia Xubai nodded slightly and smiled gently.
Xia Xubai had very little luggage, and it could be packed in a handbag.
Xia Lili took a taxi and took Xia Xubai to Qiuye Apartment and moved into the one of the remaining two apartments with less furniture and a simpler room structure.
This will help the blind Xia Xubai adapt to the environment quickly.
After helping Xia Xubai get into shape and making his bedding, Xia Lili instructed him, "I'll report to the bureau tomorrow morning. If you need to go out, remember to call me."
"Don't tell anyone you've moved."
“Don’t open the door to strangers knocking.”
Seeing his sister treating him like a kindergarten kid, Xia Xubai smiled helplessly: "Okay."
Xia Lili turned her gaze towards the recorder containing the sample copy of "Letter from Kirishima": "Brother, can you let me keep this recorder?"
"I'll put it in the safe."
The jade bracelet that Old Mrs. Bai gave to Xia Lili at Huajin Hospital was too valuable, so she had to spend a huge amount of money to buy a safe in the apartment.
Now it seems that this safe is worth buying.
Xia Xubai nodded when he heard this: "You can take it. I feel very relieved to leave it to you."
Xia Lili thought about it, took out her mobile phone and bought a voice recorder of the same model on a certain shopping app. The logistics will deliver it to her doorstep tomorrow morning.
She also took a USB drive from her apartment and backed up the original song files on Xia Xubai's computer.
Only after doing all this did Xia Lili feel relieved.
Her brother's hard work must not be stolen by anyone!
Time came to the next day.
