ATBLM [QT] Chapter 133.1

The premiere of the orchestra’s new movement was a success, and the audience responded very well.

After the curtain call, several close colleagues hugged each other excitedly. With a faint smile at the corner of Jiang Rui’s mouth, she lowered her head to clean up her violin.

There was a commotion at the entrance to the backstage. It turned out that an audience had ordered flowers to give to the orchestra members.

This kind of thing was quite common. The only difference was that there seemed to be a lot of flowers today. Each member received a bouquet. Most of the others received lilies, tulips, or carnations. Only Jiang Rui received a bouquet of fiery red roses.

When a female colleague saw this, she smiled and joked: “It seems that the flowers were sent by Mr. Xing, and we have all benefited from Chuyin’s light.”

“It’s so enviable. Why doesn’t anyone pick me up from work every day and give me flowers?”

“Chuyin, when will you and Mr. Xing get married? Please remember to treat us to a wedding banquet.”

“That’s right. We can also be considered as witnesses of the relationship between the two of you.”

Regardless of how the rest of the people joked, Jiang Rui only smiled lightly and did not say much.

After the orchestra members packed up, they left one after another. Jiang Rui carried her violin on her back and held a bouquet of roses in her arms. Because the bouquet was too big, it affected her sight a little, so she walked slowly.

As soon as she left the lounge, the flowers in her arms were taken away. Xing Yan looked at her with a smile: “Your performance tonight was perfect.”

“Thank you, and thank you for your flowers.” Jiang Rui said.

Xing Yan immediately said, “Why don’t you give me a chance to treat you to supper?”

He did not miss any opportunity. Jiang Rui slightly curved her lips and said, “Let me treat Mr. Xing, to thank you for sending me home last night.”

“Then, I have to fight for the opportunity to send you off a few more times so that Miss Shen can invite me more times.” Xing Yan said with a smile.

The two of them walked down to the parking lot together. Because the bouquet of roses was too big, they could only be placed on the back seat. Jiang Rui could not help but say, “Don’t give flowers in the future.”

“What’s wrong, you don’t like roses?” He had given flowers before, but they were relatively low-key, usually tulips, hyacinths, lilies, etc. Today, he gave roses for the first time, and they were still bright red.

This can be regarded as a test for him. If the little beauty felt that the rose was not suitable, then he would not send it off next time. If she did not say anything, then naturally only roses would be given as gifts. After all, the meaning of roses could not be compared with other flowers.

Xing Yan did not care whether sending roses was vulgar or subtle. He felt that he was already gentle and restrained enough. He did not express his love for the little beauty out loud, but let the roses do it for him.

Jiang Rui shook her head, “This flower is too big, and it’s inconvenient.”

“Then, send a small one next time.”

“Why bother spending this money?”

Xing Yan curled his lips and said with a smile: “How can flowers given to a lady be called expensive? As long as Miss Shen feels happy, the cost is not worth mentioning at all.” (T/N: Wow~~~ Boyfriend’s aura mode on!)

Jiang Rui shook her head slightly. This person had the ability to talk to himself, but others could not understand him. However, her original intention was not to reject him completely. Let him do whatever he wants.

The two of them found a tea restaurant. Since it was a late-night snack, they did not plan to eat much, so they simply ordered a few snacks.

“Tonight’s premiere was a success. What are the orchestra’s future plans?”

Jiang Rui scooped up a wonton and blew it gently, “There will be several performances at the Grand Theater before the end of the month, and the domestic tour will begin next month.”

“Isn’t that very tiring?” Xing Yan frowned, “Can your body bear it?”

“No, the performances are not very intensive, so I have time to adjust.”

Xing Yan nodded, thinking about how to get the orchestra’s schedule.

***

A few days later, Jiang Rui began to pack her luggage.

Old Mrs. Shen sat on the bed and helped her fold clothes. Every time her granddaughter leaves, it lasts for more than a month or two.

In fact, she and the old man were actually very reluctant to part with her and were also very worried, but this was the child’s preference and her profession. As old people, they only had support and understanding.

Although it was not the first time for her granddaughter to leave home, she still had many words to say.

“Your Grandpa said, be careful when you are out there. Whatever you do on a daily basis, try to be with your companions in the group, and remember to call back every night. Alas, he is verbose, even more verbose than me. He just wants to save face and is too embarrassed to be like mother in front of you.” The old lady exposed her husband’s bottom without any pressure.
