Zhong Ling's foot injury was not yet healed. She was very bored at home, so she asked the little sisters who sang with her to come out for some fresh air.
I heard that a newly opened specialty snack near Liulicheng is very popular, so I came here to try it out.
Just as the two of them were looking intently at the food list posted on the wall, Zhong Ling's wrist suddenly sank. When she realized what she was doing, her money bag was gone.
Just when the little beggar came up to beg for money from them, Zhong Ling suspected that he had taken the money bag away without her noticing.
The two men first blackmailed the little beggar into handing him over, but when they saw that he was stiff-necked and refused to admit it, they started searching him.
How could the little beggar be at their mercy? He was torn apart from them immediately.
He was just a thin kid, how could he beat two grown women.
Even though Zhong Ling had an injury on her foot, Gu Qingdai did not notice that her performance was limited.
"Luancheng is such a big place, how come I can meet you anywhere?"
Zhong Ling helped her little sister stand firm. The more she looked at Qingdai, the more displeased she became.
Haven't you been taught enough for standing up for Qu Biqian last time?
Are you going to speak for this little beggar again this time?
"I'm also wondering, why do I always see Boss Zhong bullying people?"
Gu Qingdai pulled the little beggar to her side and saw a fresh blood mark on his dirty little face.
Zhong Ling believed that it was the little beggar who had stolen her purse, and tilted her head at Gu Qingdai confidently: "If my purse is found on this little beggar today, what will Shopkeeper Gu do?"
"If he didn't steal your wallet, what explanation would Boss Zhong be giving?"
Gu Qingdai knelt down and took out a handkerchief to wipe the little beggar's face clean, "Did you steal it?"
Tears welled up in the little beggar's eyes, "I didn't."
"Searching you is indeed disrespectful, but right now this is all I can do to prove my innocence. Do you agree?"
"What if it's not found on me?"
The little beggar and Gu Qingdai looked at Zhong Ling at the same time.
"If I find it, you will kneel down and kowtow to me in public to apologize!" Zhong Ling crossed his arms in front of his chest, not doubting his own judgment in the slightest.
Gu Qingdai was very sympathetic, as it was clear that Zhong Ling himself had a miserable background.
To put it bluntly, it’s a low-level person. Why do you want to make things so difficult for poor people?
"If he is not found, will you kneel down for him?" Gu Qingdai asked.
At this time, the little sister next to Zhong Ling noticed something strange. She kindly tugged on the corner of Zhong Ling's clothes and whispered to her that maybe they had wrongly blamed someone.
Xu Qiuxia and everyone around her had already surrounded her. The formation was not as big as the last time in Na's Silk Satin Shop, but it was enough to embarrass Zhong Ling again.
Firstly, Zhong Ling was pushed to such a point that she could no longer retreat. Secondly, she was angry with Gu Qingdai and didn't want her to succeed in front of him again.
If it hadn't been for Gu Qingdai, her feet wouldn't have been injured and she wouldn't have been unable to perform on stage for so long.
In the past many days, Song Yueting had only come to see her once, and today I heard from the little sister that he went to the Fireworks Willow Lane to have fun again, completely ignoring her feelings.
The little beggar knew that he would not be let go easily without being searched today, and he was grateful for the stranger Gu Qingdai, so he took the initiative to come to his rescue.
He began to untie the tattered shorts on his body and spoke in a gentle tone: "I am not as knowledgeable as you. If you don't find anything, just apologize to me. I am a poor beggar, but I don't do those sneaky things.
thing!"
As a result, it was obvious to everyone that the little beggar did not steal Zhong Ling’s purse at all.
I don’t know if the real thief saw this scene and acted intentionally, or if Zhong Ling just accidentally dropped the money bag to the ground.
Her little sister noticed it with sharp eyes and ran over to pick it up quickly.
Zhong Ling opened the money bag and counted it, looking at it with a red face and trying to quibble.
Gu Qingdai and the little beggar almost said the same thing: "Isn't it because there is less money?"
The little sister has some understanding of Zhong Ling's temper. She also knows that she has recently become a celebrity and has been pursued by many bosses, and her temper has become much more perverse.
Zhong Ling will never bow her head, but if this stalemate continues, it will do her no good at all.
The little sister then stepped forward to smooth things over for Zhong Ling, apologized to the little beggar, and even used her own money to reward the little beggar with another silver dollar.
The little beggar didn't take the hand, and kept staring at Zhong Ling with his big eyes resentfully.
Zhong Ling was finally dragged away by the little sister. She turned her head and stared directly at Gu Qingdai.
The gap between them became deeper.
The crowd dispersed, and the little beggar had said thank you to Gu Qingdai countless times.
Gu Qingdai was very ashamed, "If I were really capable, I wouldn't let you take off your clothes in public. Remember the shame you suffered today, and you will win it back in the future."
On the way back, Xu Qiuxia looked at Gu Qingdai again.
When they were about to leave, she said: "Maybe what the old man appreciates is your energy."
Gu Qingdai hurriedly joked: "Mr. Xu always pointed at me to help him get more pastries to eat."
The next day, Gu Qingdai went out of her way to clean up her appearance, wiping off all the rouge, gouache, and khaodan accessories.
Seeing how uncomfortable she was, Xu Qiuxia felt that she would be more attractive if she dressed up nicely.
Fortunately, Mrs. Lu was very satisfied when she met Gu Qingdai. She was the person Xu Qiuxia introduced to Dazhigen, so she reported a remuneration amount that surprised Gu Qingdai on the spot.
It's just that Gu Qingdai thought it was simple. She thought Mrs. Lu paid her so much money just for Xu Qiuxia's face.
Until she met the eldest lady of the Lu family, Lu Minglan.
She wore an improved Western-style lace dress, and her hair was permed into a slightly curly and trendy style.
She sat in front of the piano and played a few notes at random, then looked at Gu Qingdai who was walking towards her with contempt.
"Have you ever seen a piano? Do you know how expensive this piano is?"
Gu Qingdai walked to her side and casually wiped the broken hair behind her ears, "Can Miss Lu know how to play?"
"I must play better than you." Lu Minglan was extremely conceited.
Gu Qingdai glanced at the wall clock in the piano room, "The piano teacher won't arrive in two-quarters of an hour. Why don't you ask Miss Lu to open my eyes first?"
Lu Minglan laughed angrily: "That was half an hour later. What year has it been? It's still so antique."
She immediately started playing an introductory piece of music. It was obvious that her technique was still very stiff, and the music she played was even more intermittent and inconsistent.
Gu Qingdai figured out her level and started to set her up: "This piece doesn't look difficult to play? How about Miss Lu let me try it?"
Lu Minglan sneered contemptuously: "What are you trying to do here? My mother really, who is she looking for?"
"What if I pop out?" Gu Qingdai continued to seduce.
"There's no way you're going to pop out."
Gu Qingdai tilted her head and motioned for her to make way for her.
Lu Minglan stumbled and stood up, "Let you play, let you play, let you, a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, touch the piano. I guarantee you can't read music!"
"If I get ejected, Miss Lu has to agree to one condition."
"Don't mention one condition, I will agree to it even if it's ten."
“It’s a deal!”
When Gu Qingdai heard the answer she wanted, she turned around and started playing.
When she was still alive, she studied piano as a hobby for a while. She couldn't compare with professional masters, but she was still more than enough to cope with this entry-level repertoire.
It didn't take long to play a piece of music. When Gu Qingdai turned her head, she saw Lu Minglan's surprised expression.
"Miss Lu is a person who keeps her word, right?" This chapter has been completed!
