Chapter 117: Rejection Again
This was once Mi Cai and I fought countless times, but this time I chose to stop and fall into silence. However, the customers were still in high spirits and asked Mi Cai to sing another song for them.
cc squeezed my eyes at me and signaled me to take advantage of the audience's combo and pull Micai to sing, but I no longer had the desire to sing. I took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and walked out of the bar. I wanted to breathe the air outside, although it was very humid and cold.
Since I have been back to Suzhou these days, I seem to be very irritable every day. This irritability comes from subjectivity and objective, but I can't find a way to overcome it for the time being, so my emotions always fluctuate in some trivial things.
Halfway through a cigarette, I suddenly realized that there was one more person around me. I turned my head and found that it was Mi Cai standing beside me. Interestingly, my Alto and her Audi were also placed side by side not far away.
I took another puff of cigarette and asked Mi Cai for a long time after spitting it out, "Why are you out?"
"Look at you and find out if you're angry about me for not singing with you."
"There's nothing to be angry about, I'm used to being rejected by you."
Mi Cai did not respond to my words, and said a meaningful sentence for a long time: "Actually, I like a song, but I don't really like it, I just miss someone in a way... So you and Jian Wei sang that song..." Stopped and looked at me and asked, "Zhaoyang, am I right?"
This is a sentence worth thinking about, but I was so tired that I didn't want to think about anything. So I changed the topic and said to Mi Cai with a smile: "I saw that there was no car opposite, but it's mine now, isn't it cool?"
Mi Cai seemed to be interested in fulfilling my change of topic, but she didn't ask anything, but said in a cooperative manner: "Is it that Alto?"
"Yes, I once drove this car to invite you to an empty city for dinner. Do you still remember?"
Mi Cai just nodded and stopped talking because the topic we are talking about now is a bit boring.
So we were silent again, but I was not afraid of this silence at all, because I had smoke to relieve all the embarrassment and discomfort in silence.
With smoke in hand, Mi Cai finally broke the silence. She said to me: "I'll take a break tomorrow. If you have time, can you taste the food you cook?"
"No, you don't even want to sing with me. Why should I cook for you?"
"Is it necessary to be so stingy?"
I said seriously: "Wrong, this is not stingy, this is called revenge."
Mi Cai frowned and said, "The word "revenge" is not used well. I remember telling you before, and I never treat you as an opponent."
Seeing that Mi Cai was serious, I was not suitable to continue joking with her and said to her: "Actually, I don't have time tomorrow. My decoration plan has been made. I will go to the decoration company every day tomorrow."
Mi Cailuo said to me disappointedly: "Then I'll have a chance next time."
I nodded and remembered that I had not given her the rent. I immediately took out my wallet from my pocket and counted 1,500 yuan and handed it to her and said, "This is a month's rent, please collect it."
Mi Cai did not reach out to pick it up, and she said to me: "Save the rent, please add some potted plants to your home. It will definitely be very beautiful in spring."
I thought about the appearance of the potted plants until spring and thought it would be very beautiful. I nodded subconsciously and then put the money back in my wallet.
"Zhaoyang, when the potted plants bloom in spring, you must have run a bar, right?"
Mi Cai's question surprised me. No matter how outstanding my abilities are, it is impossible to run a bar in just a few months. This will take a long process. However, as a graduate student who graduated from the University of Pennsylvania Business School, how could she ask such an inaccurate question?
I asked Mi Cai with doubts: "Does you mean bringing the bar on track or having a hot business and making a profit?"
After a long time of silence, Mi Cai said to me, "None of them, what I said is that you can leave this bar and end the help to your friends."
I smiled and said, "So that's what you mean! But do you really want me to leave this bar? And you are now one of the shareholders of this bar. This is unreasonable. You should hope that I will make this bar better and better!"
Mi Cai turned around and faced me, with a serious expression but a low tone and said to me: "I hope you can come to Zhuomei to work... Now there is no one around me who can truly trust, I am very tired... and helpless!"
This time I looked at Mi Cai in even more shockedly and couldn't speak for a long time.
"I hope you go to Zhuomei to work not to repay you, it's because I saw your ability and talent. I have studied the promotional theme of love for Polygon Department Store before leaving Suzhou. I have done it very well. There is also the literary positioning of the fifth season of the bar, which is also very innovative and creative. Zhuomei needs talents like you. I believe that Zhuomei will become the best stage for you to display your talents!"
Mi Cai's tone is still sincere, but she is unfamiliar at this moment. Because she is full of ceo-like temperament in the workplace, I cannot connect her now with the one who often fights with me with a little temperament.
But at this moment she is helpless, so she will let me go to Zhuomei. I know that in her heart, I am a person who can be trusted, but if I accept her trust, it means more responsibility. This responsibility arising from trust is the heaviest, so I will not give her a reply, at least not now. At this moment, I am already carrying a heavy responsibility arising from Le Yao's trust. I will not regard myself as a savior, and I cannot bear so many responsibilities.
Finally, I said to Mi Cai, who has been waiting for my reply: "I just want to run a bar now, and it will be a long process, so what you said is too far away for me, so it's not suitable to make a decision now."
Mi Cai just nodded in response to my polite rejection. She didn't say anything else, as calm as ever, but what about her mood? She would definitely be lost and helpless, but she was stronger and more wise than ordinary women, so whether she could completely control Zhuomei or not, and her dependence on me in life to the mall was just an inertia and had no special meaning. I think it was because she understood this in her heart that she didn't say anything after I refused.
A gust of cold wind blew up the snow on the ground, fluttering, but it infinitely amplified our silence. I finally said to Mi Cai after a very long silence: "Let's go in. Today is the weekend, have fun!"
Mi Cai nodded and followed me to the bar. When I entered the bar, I seemed to have forgotten everything Mi Cai had just told me, because I prefer the little quarrels between us rather than the seriousness just now.
