Chapter 19
Lu Ming had not yet received a reply from teacher L, but was called back by Liang Yesheng.
Liang Yesheng was clearly in a good mood just a second ago, but now he was looking at Lu Ming with a smirk, "Go pay the fee."
"Pay what fee?" Lu Ming was a little confused.
"You don't pay to see a doctor?" Liang Yesheng said, "Our country has not yet achieved free medical care, right?"
That is true, but Lu Ming felt that he didn’t get anything out of today's trip to the doctor’s. Liang Yesheng probably just looked at his teeth for a few minutes. Then for some reason, as he was talking, Liang Yesheng pulled down his mask. And for some other unknown reason, when Lu Ming came back to his senses, he didn’t remind Liang Yesheng to focus on checking his teeth, and was actually kissing Liang Yesheng back. Their lips and tongue intertwined, and Lu Ming almost fainted from lack of oxygen.
Why should he pay for this too?
Lu Ming said, "I have no money, I am particularly poor now, there’s only two hundred and ninety thousand dollars left ......"
The studio rent, livehouse venue fees, and all kinds of other things.
"Doctors should help the needy a little, I didn’t bring money, I can only pay you with something else." Lu Ming said.
Liang Yesheng was very cooperative, "Like what?"
Maybe because today's Liang Yesheng is very easy to approach, so Lu Ming also became flat out courageous. He walked over a few steps and saw that Liang Yesheng was holding a pen in his right hand, wondering if he was really ready to write him a prescription. Lu Ming decided to stop this behavior. He bent down, tilted his head, and kissed Liang Yesheng at the corner of his lips.
"I think you can offset the debt." Lu Ming said, "Don't you get angry again."
Liang Yesheng must have called him back because he suddenly got upset, Lu Ming knew by instinct now. Although Liang Yesheng seems not to have been kissed to the point of dizziness, he was visibly feeling better, and even reached out to touch Lu Ming's face, "Go back to sleep, or I'm afraid you'll be sleepy if you stay here."
Lu Ming always like to sleep, he never loses sleep at night, but he also gets up late in the morning. Oftentimes, when he wakes up, his circle of nocturnal friends have gone home from a round of partying, and Lu Ming did not have time to participate in anything. Even if he was scolded, he can not fight back. But after a moment of depression, Lu Ming still returned to his life of sleeping early and getting up late. This morning he indeed woke up early, his biological clock is all messed up. Now that Liang Yesheng said so, he is really starting to feel sleepy.
"Then I'm going back to sleep." Lu Ming stood at the door and waved to Liang Yesheng, reminding once again, "Saturday!"
This time he walked out, remembered the contact in his phone, and reported, "He promised to meet with me. I can see him again on Saturday."
Teacher L's confusion seemed to deepen, "So you're just gonna wait until Saturday?"
"Yeah." Lu Ming thought, wondering if he should send a location to Liang Yelsheng so that Liang Yelsheng wouldn't get lost.
"What about these days?" Little L teacher reminded Lu Ming.
Lu Ming came to a realization, it seems that there is no need to wait until Saturday?
"Then can you help me think of a reason?" Lu Ming asked, "I feel like I need an excuse. If only I had a dog with him at first, I could say that although divorced, the dog is innocent and walking it is still up to him."
Teacher L was silent for a while, then replied to Lu Ming: "Just say that you have a toothache."
Lu Ming's tooth was forced to hurt for a week before he finally waited until almost Saturday.
Lu Ming also warned in advance, "Everyone remember to give me some face during the concert! For example, say ‘shout out Lu Ming’ a few more times before singing or something."
Everyone else laughed, "That's right, we have to give Ming Ge face! What's wrong with Ming lately, he's got a new lover? Which girl is it?"
"No, no," Lu Ming was modest and honest, "there is no girl, I’m still gay."
He is now not too shy about it, since coming out on weibo, he actually got a lot more fans. The other day a local news media came to do a special interview with them. When they posted the interview, the other rappers were just introduced with their names and what they represent. Only Lu Ming’s introduction had a few more words: “well-known producer Lu Ming who has come out of the closet”. Other people who looked at it were laughing mad, and now Lu Ming completely disregards it.
In fact, his sexual orientation seems to be more narrow, it seems to be Liang Yesheng only. It’s just that the world does not have this type of sexual orientation, so Lu Ming needs to fit into the framework of homosexuality.
Xu Ou, however, frowned, he had something else to worry about. When everyone had finished making noise and quieted down, he spoke, "There is a matter that I want to discuss with you guys, it's about the Flying Eagles. They came to me the other day and said they want to reconcile with us. What are you guys thinking?"
"Did I hear it right?" Lu Ming was the first to scream, "They want to reconcile on their own initiative?"
"Yes." Xu Ou's eyes flickered a bit, "Just that Chen Zi, you found out last time, that he is actually a fan of mine. He worships me, but our current situation is all because of a misunderstanding. I think since Flying Eagle has taken the initiative, then why don’t we also take a step down. Otherwise the two companies being in such a mess will affect the performance."
Before Lu Ming had time to comment, the others began to agree unanimously. The cause was not a deep hatred, and there was no need to let the standoff affect the music itself. What's more, the most important thing is that Chen Zi's side was the first to compromise and also the one that took the initiative to come to Xu Ou to apologize, so why wouldn't they be happy about it?
"Okay ...... fine." Lu Ming agreed rather reluctantly, "then we’ll have a gathering, post a weibo, and let the past be in the past."
Xu Ou was successful in convincing them, and was very happy. He wrapped his arm around Lu Ming, "Next time I’ll buy you that pair of yellow lobsters!"
Lu Ming did not take it seriously. First of all, Xu Gou can not afford it, secondly he has matured, no longer needs to use overpriced shoes to prove his superficial persona.
"So much nonsense, just take it." Xu Ou said with a smile.
Only after the group dispersed, Xu Ou began to call Chen Zi.
Chen Zi hung up the phone immediately, and Xu Ou called again before he picked up, "What do you keep calling at night?"
"Have you come to City C?" Xu Ou asked him, "I saw that you said you lost your wallet at the City C high-speed rail station."
As for what Chen Zi said about city C being a shitty place, having poor security at high-speed railway stations, and D city being a completely different world, Xu Ou will pretend that he has not seen these for the time being.
Chen Zi just remembered that because he was so angry, he accidently forgot to block Xu Ou from seeing his post, and said, "I go where I like to go, are you trying to tell me that I can’t come to city C because of Deer Mountain?"
Xu Ou said, "I didn't say that. We have a show tomorrow, you know? I mean, if you're in City C, you can stop by and see it."
Chen Zi thought, "Fuck, I was going to sneak in.”
But of course he couldn't say it out loud and had to refuse, "What would I be doing at your show? You are really funny. Is it because your tickets don’t sell and you need to find people to show up. I say you also keep your word, the last time you said whoever lost the game apologizes, did you forget ......"
"I remember." Xu Gou finally understood the fact that this person could not stop once he opened his mouth and forcibly interrupted, "I still remember you said that you wanted me to see real music techniques and listen to the songs you would make for me. There is another thing, you want to hear it too?"
Chen Zi was confused by this shift in Xu O's attitude and listened instead.
"Our company," Xu Ou said, "asked me to convey that they are quite eager to reconcile, so why don't you ask the Flying Eagles what they want? And what do you think?"
Xu Ou, since he knew that Chen Zi used to be a fan of his own, followed the traces and found many things of the former Chen Zi. He used to listen to Lone Wolf’s songs in NetEase, but now he seems to really know the former Chen Zi. At that time, Chen Zi looked like a weirdo, wasn’t very skilled, and was posting on a rapper’s forum, saying that he wishes to see Xu Ou someday. He always lost during battles. One time, he almost won, but in the end he still got second place.
Xu Ou recalled Chen Zi's first win, plus after knowing Chen Zi’s past, Xu Ou suddenly had a trace of regret, and began to think, maybe reconciliation is a good choice after all.
What's more, if Flying Eagle and Deer Mountain continue to be so antagonistic, it will really affect the income! But to make the other side take the initiative to bow down and admit defeat, it seems unlikely, so genius Xu Ou thought of a way.
But Xu Ou waited for half a day, Chen Zi did not speak.
He was a little shocked.
The author’s notes:
