Chapter 642 Discovering the Truth
She immediately asked in surprise, "You haven't left yet?"
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come over." Qin Feng went over and took her hand: "Finished talking?"
Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "Mm."
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Qin Feng said, "That autograph..."
"Oh, right!" Zhou Qiao immediately said, "I was just chatting with Magpie, and when I looked down I realized I didn't have time to sign anything!"
Qin Feng's lips curled slightly: "I know, so I..."
"Guess what happened!" Zhou Qiao exclaimed excitedly, completely unaware that Qin Feng was about to reach into his pocket. "The magpie took two and gave me one!"
She happily pulled out a signed album from her backpack and showed it to Qin Feng: "Isn't this a pleasant surprise? I thought I was definitely not going to get an autograph!"
Qin Feng, who had already taken out half of the album, was speechless.
Silently, he put his hand back.
Zhou Qiao was completely unaware that his thoughts had been going through a hundred different phases in an instant, and in the end, they all turned into helplessness.
She happily went over and took his hand: "Come on, let's go find Sister Wan Ge. I'm exhausted, and I'm going to faint from hunger if I don't eat soon!"
Qin Feng took her hand in his and replied with a "okay".
The two of them arrived at the hot pot restaurant that Kong Wange and Murong Ting had booked.
Outside, the air was bitterly cold, but inside the hot pot restaurant, it was bustling with activity and filled with warmth.
Qin Feng and Zhou Qiao went upstairs to a private room. When they pushed the door open, they saw that Kong Wange and Murong Ting had already ordered the hot pot base and dishes. They pointed to the QR code on the table and said, "We've already ordered what we want to eat. You can add whatever you want."
Zhou Qiao was so captivated by the aroma that she could hardly move. She quickly and affectionately sat down next to Kong Wange, scanned the code, and started ordering like crazy.
Qin Feng watched silently from the side, thinking to himself that she liked lotus root but disliked beef tripe, and decisively chose spicy beef over tender beef, so it seemed she really liked spicy food...
After ordering the food, Qin Feng had memorized most of her preferences.
After Zhou Qiao finished ordering, she started showing off her autographed album to Kong Wange. Kong Wange was very supportive, and the two talked about the album, the concert, and then about Chu Chuanfei.
"To be honest, I had only heard of him as a person before, but I hadn't really listened to his music. I was shocked after listening to him this time. His live performance was so captivating," Kong Wange exclaimed.
"Of course, Sister Kong, Fei Fei has the title of 'King of Live Performances'!" Zhou Qiao said proudly, "There are always so many people lining up to sign autographs for fans, and many can't get an autograph. This time, I have to thank Brother Qiang. He rushed to the front of the line by himself and got an autograph. So, you have to have friends when you're out in the world. If I hadn't gotten an autograph today, I would have cried my eyes out."
As soon as Zhou Qiao finished speaking, Qin Feng frowned and asked, "Brother Qiang? Wasn't the album given to you by that girl?"
"It was Magpie who brought it to me, but the autograph was also signed by Brother Qiang. Hey, Brother Qiang is also our friend, a really loyal guy from Northeast China. The three of us got into Fei Fei around the same time, and we became friends over time. This time, they thought I wasn't here, so when Brother Qiang signed autographs, he specially brought one for me and asked Magpie to give it to me. Magpie was originally planning to mail it to me, but it was such a coincidence that we ran into each other at the venue entrance," Zhou Qiao said happily.
The album was right next to Zhou Qiao, and at that moment, Qin Feng looked at it, feeling awkward no matter how he looked at it.
Of Zhou Qiao's words, he succinctly summarized it into one sentence: "The album was specially brought to me by my loyal friend from Northeast China who thought of me."
Originally, the album was a gift from her female friend, so he didn't care much about it. But after learning the whole story, he was instantly overcome with jealousy.
Liking a male celebrity is one thing.
The album autograph was a gift from another man.
He had already gotten her an autographed copy.
After staring at the album for a while, Qin Feng felt increasingly uncomfortable. He coughed lightly, stood up, and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
Zhou Qiao was enthusiastically recommending Chu Chuanfei's new album to Kong Wange, completely ignoring him. She simply said "Oh" to indicate that she knew and then turned to pull Kong Wange to continue.
The moment Qin Feng stood up, he naturally replaced the album on the chair with his own, then stuffed Zhou Qiao's album into his pocket and turned to leave the private room.
As he passed the trash can, he intended to throw away the album his older brother had given him.
But then she thought, if Zhou Qiao found out, she would definitely be unhappy.
Even though he was extremely unwilling, he still went out and threw the album into a corner of the car.
This is a win-win solution; out of sight, out of mind.
As the album disappeared from his sight, he felt a sense of relief and turned back with light steps.
Inside the private room, Zhou Qiao was chatting enthusiastically with Kong Wange, completely unaware that her album had been switched and given a different look.
She was chatting with Kong Wange about her recent online store opening when she added, "Wange, don't you have a skill too? Why don't you weave a few cicadas and put them in my store to sell, to help me make a name for myself?"
Zhou Qiao got more and more excited as she talked, and urged, "Brother-in-law, you haven't seen the cicadas that Sister Wange made yet, have you? They're so beautiful. Sister Wange, show everyone what you've got!"
Murong Ting turned his gaze over, looking surprised.
Kong Wange couldn't refuse any longer. Seeing some wild grass in the plate decorations, she picked it up and wove it into a cicada.
After I finished editing, I casually placed it on the table.
This drew gasps of amazement from Murong Ting and Zhou Qiao.
When Qin Feng returned after finishing the album, he sat down and saw that the group was chatting enthusiastically. He was too embarrassed to interrupt, so he quietly took on the role of "cook" and started cooking the vegetables for Zhou Qiao.
When he served a bowl of beef and placed it next to her, he glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and was stunned.
There was a cicada sitting right next to Zhou Qiao's bowl.
He put down the bowl and picked up the cicada. Its shape, size, and weaving technique were almost identical to his own.
His gaze softened slightly without him realizing it.
Just then, Zhou Qiao said she was tired and turned to drink some water.
As she poured the water down, she saw Qin Feng looking at the cicada with reminiscence in his eyes. She exclaimed "Hey!" and said with a smile, "How is it? Isn't it beautiful?"
Qin Feng hummed in agreement, looked at her, and asked gently, "Why did you suddenly decide to make this up again?"
Zhou Qiao chuckled and said, "What? I didn't make this up. Sister Kong made it up."
Qin Feng was taken aback and subconsciously looked at Kong Wange: "Did you make this up?"
Kong Wange didn't mind: "Well, I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Master Qin. I just made it up for fun."
Qin Feng unconsciously stroked the cicada with his fingers, and said to Zhou Qiao with a smile, "Did you teach Miss Kong to make this?"
"What are you talking about? How could I possibly make this up? I'd be better off having Sister Kong teach me!" Zhou Qiao said, bewildered.
Qin Feng was speechless for a moment, and after a long while, he said in a hoarse voice, "Then... the cicada you were carrying before..."
