Chapter 15 Love Story Part 1
"My daughter was in primary school and was bullied by a group of junior high school students. She was afraid to go to school. He went to ask for justice and beat the leader until he became paralyzed. He stayed in prison for five years."
When Li Guixun said this, the singer on the stage was singing "People Like Me".
Huo Xiang paused while chewing the roasted gluten and asked, "What about his wife and daughter..."
"His wife transferred to another school with the kids, and she was delivering takeout while waiting for him. As soon as Lao Hei got out, he started this barbecue stall, working from dawn to dusk. His business is pretty good. I heard he even bought a house and a car."
Li Guixun didn't say that Lao Hei's wife is also working as a cleaner in his company.
Huo Xiang looked at Lao Hei again and said, "A man doesn't have to be handsome, he just has to be manly."
Li Guixun nodded in agreement, and then whispered in his heart: Xiangxiang, look at me, I am also a man...
At this time, the singer finished singing one song and changed to another.
"You can't pretend to be a couple just by putting on couple clothes, and you can't re-enact this movie just by being careful..."
Hearing this, Li Guixun was instantly choked.
Huo Xiang quickly handed over the tissue and asked the waiter to bring a bottle of water.
Seeing that veins on his face were bulging from coughing, I quickly stood up and patted his back a few times. It took him a long time to recover.
Li Guixun took the water and said he was going to the bathroom to rinse his mouth.
Facing the mirror, he looked at the exposed collar of his sweater and sighed heavily. When would he be able to wear it openly?
The singer outside was still singing emotionally: "You can't pretend to be a couple just by wearing couple clothes, and you can't re-enact this movie just by being cautious..."
Li Guixun: “…”
ヽ('⌒′メ)ノ
He crushed the mineral water bottle, called a waiter, whispered some instructions, and then walked out.
Seeing that Li Guixun was fine, Huo Xiang continued to eat and drink.
He usually doesn't drink much, but maybe because of the skewers grilled by Lao Hei and the story he just heard, he actually had several drinks.
At this time, the music suddenly stopped and the singer spoke: "A guest said that he was allergic to the song "Couple Outfits" and ordered "Love Story Part 1". But I'm sorry, I'm not very good at singing Cantonese songs, so I'll sing "Chengdu" for everyone!"
Huo Xiang: “…”
Allergic to songs...
It may sound a bit weird, but maybe it really exists! Maybe that person is just experiencing a breakup, don't let him or her get stressed out because of a song.
Li Guixun, who was standing aside, was eating grilled chicken wings obediently, looking guilty as if it was none of his business.
In fact, this singer sings quite well, but maybe he is too young and his mental quality is not stable yet.
During the intervals between songs, the guests at the front rows of several tables, probably drunk, started to complain: "They keep singing the same old songs, why don't they change to something new?" "They can't even sing classic Cantonese songs, they just sing some clichés, what the hell..."
The singer's condition was obviously affected. He bowed, threw down his guitar and hurried off the stage before finishing the song.
Li Guixun didn't expect that this would happen just because he ordered a song.
Just as I was thinking about going out to handle it myself, Huo Xiang stood up first.
Lao Hei was apologizing to a few guests who had just arrived, saying that the singer was not feeling well, when he saw Huo Xiang walk up to the stage and sit in front of the microphone with a guitar.
"Hello everyone, I'm the boss's friend. There was a little problem just now. The singer suddenly felt unwell. I hope I didn't disturb your fun. When you are out, everyone has inconveniences. Please bear with me!
A customer just ordered "The Love Story Part 1", right? I happen to be able to sing it, so I'll show off my performance here. If I don’t sing well, please give me more encouragement. If you think the singing is good, I hope you will support Laohei BBQ, thank you! ”
When the guests in the audience saw that he was a handsome guy and spoke so appropriately, they immediately applauded and cheered.
Li Guixun was already a very outstanding person, and now he was even more conspicuous, leading the way and shouting, "Okay!"
It was hard for Huo Xiang not to see it.
He suppressed his smile and plucked the strings.
"The light of the stars shines in the midnight, and everyone tells stories happily. But it is not easy to say what I want to say tonight. I look at you hesitantly, and you hesitate again..."
Li Guixun never expected that, by some strange coincidence, his thoughts would be sung out by Huo Xiang.
He stared at the figure on the stage who was quietly holding a guitar and singing, like a pervert, as if they were the only two people left in the world.
"Tonight the young man pours out his regrets, who is foolish enough to listen to the story again? But the foolish boy only knows the first part, and prays that the second part will be a lovely dream.
Do you know that I am so attached to you that I feel heartbroken every night and my thoughts are in vain? This boy wants to end this story but can’t, it’s all because I fell in love with you but you don’t know…”
After a while, Li Guixun remembered to record the video and quickly took out his mobile phone.
Huo Xiang studied vocal music in college.
At the beginning, Qiao An wanted to form a group with him because he was handsome and a good singer.
As soon as the song started, the audience immediately became agitated.
The barbecue stall was originally on the roadside, and the singing attracted more new customers.
Many people also took out their mobile phones to live broadcast.
Li Guixun was originally very proud, but when he saw this, he was shocked.
I contacted people immediately and as quickly as possible found two 18th-tier artists, one male and one female, who debuted in talent shows.
By the time they arrived, Huo Xiang had already been coaxed into singing three songs.
As soon as Huo Xiang stepped down from the stage, Li Guixun quickly handed him the water.
Lao Hei also came over and wanted to pat his shoulder, but his hands were covered in oil and he put them down.
He smiled and said, "Brother Xiao Huo, you really helped me a lot today. You are so handsome and you sing better than that star! Hahaha..."
Li Guixun gave him an unkind look and said, "Just today, don't even think about it later. The two singers have already made their decision."
Lao Hei hurriedly said, "Boss Li is really open-minded. Haha, from now on, whenever you come, I'll make sure you guys are well fed!"
Huo Xiang said, "That's great. Brother Hei, your cooking skills are so good, your business will definitely grow bigger in the future. I'm planning to introduce my friends to come and try it!"
"Hehe, I'm borrowing your good words. When your friends come over, ask them to mention your name and I'll give them a discount! Hahaha..."
The artists that Li Gui found were very good at adjusting the atmosphere and immediately made the scene lively.
Seeing that more and more guests came, the two of them did not stay any longer.
At least there can be an empty table, right?
On the way back, Huo Xiang closed his eyes and rested, but he could feel the hot gaze on him that could not be ignored.
He used to look at others like this...
And Li Guixun's mind was filled with the song sung by Huo Xiang.
Especially the song "Dear John".
"Every love affair is like a gamble. You give everything and you don't know what you will get in return. Maybe after loving, you can at least learn to be touched or content. It's hard to say whether you win or lose when love ends..."
Huo Xiang's voice was not as vicissitudes as the original singer's. Li Guixun knew that he was trying hard to express letting go.
But the red eyes showed that he was not completely relieved.
Li Guixun felt really distressed.
It doesn’t matter, I will always be here.
As soon as the two returned home, Shun Shun rushed over and threw himself into Huo Xiang's arms.
Uncle Tian said helplessly: "Shun Shun woke up and looked around, but Teacher Huo was missing. He searched upstairs and downstairs for several times. Then he hid in his nest and ignored everyone."
Huo Xiang drank a bottle of beer and now he was feeling a little dizzy. But he still held Shunshun in his arms, scratched its feathers, and coaxed it patiently: "I'm sorry, little Shunshun, I had something to do outside, and I didn't tell you because I saw you were sleeping. I won't do it again next time!"
