Chapter 817 Graduation
Eight fifty in the evening.
Downstairs of the Xie family, the street lamps emitted dim lights.
Xiao Qianxi looked grateful: "Thanks to you tonight, I really don't know how to repay you."
Chen Tao blinked and said: "I don't want anything, just ask you not to forget to sing a song for me."
I didn't go to KTV tonight.
Xiao Qianxi blushed a little. She didn't feel anything before, but now she was inexplicably shy.
Singing for other men sounds really ambiguous. But once she said it, she couldn't regret it, and she didn't want to regret it.
Chen Tao helped her a lot, just asking her to sing a song. Since she can sing for many fans and audiences, why can't she sing a song for a friend like Chen Tao?
She hummed: "You can listen to any song you want."
Chen Tao joked: "Can love songs be ok? Even if Qianxi dares to sing, I dare not listen, otherwise your flower protector Xie Qiao will definitely have opinions about me."
Xie Qiao really hopes that her Xiaochuan brother and Xiao Qianxi can be together.
Xiao Qianxi smiled and said: "Then don't choose love songs!"
Chen Tao also smiled and said: "I should have worked harder at the beginning, so that I would have the opportunity to listen to you sing love songs for me."
Xiao Qianxi said angrily: "Is this a bit inappropriate? If Fang Wei hears it, I can't explain it."
Chen Tao said casually: "Qianxi, you don't need to explain, because everyone knows that I am a playboy. It would be strange if I don't like you!"
Xiao Qianxi didn't take it seriously, but laughed and complained:
"Knowing that you are a playboy, why don't you correct it?"
Chen Tao pretended to be helpless: "I have I am incurable and hopeless. Let's wait for the next life! In the next life, I must be a loyal man, work hard to get into University B, and stay in Beijing after graduation. "
Xiao Qianxi covered her face and said, "I'm going upstairs to rest. I will regard these words as your drunken gaffes. They will not be spread out, and you are not allowed to spread them again."
Chen Tao nodded and said, "I wish you good luck in the competition. I will defend my thesis at the end of the month. I may be busy recently and cannot go to the scene."
Xiao Qianxi said happily, "I also wish you all the best."
Chen Tao certainly wished everything went well, but Xiao Qianxi would be in trouble next.
Lin Jingyan, who was as sharp-minded as a needle, had already gone to her hometown and was ready to be a good sister who sympathized with her.
Chen Tao did not intend to remind her.
The education of reality is more profound. If she did not understand the wickedness of human hearts, how could she know how good Brother Tao was to her?
Moreover, Chen Tao would not let Lin Jingyan go easily. In the future, he would help Xiao Qianxi regain his ground and gain favor.
As for He Xiaozhou...
Brother, since you support Xiao Qianxi to join the entertainment industry, you certainly don't mind me being her good junior.
From now on, you can stay in the United States and work peacefully. I will take good care of Qianxi, don't worry!
At ten o'clock, Chen Tao returned to the rental house he had bought.
He had filed a case in advance. And Xie Qiao shared the experience in the Penguin group, proving that he did not do anything to seduce Qianxi. But the lovely Chief Prosecutor Fang and Chief Justice Lin still decided to torture him for half a night.
The reason is very simple, they can't control Chen. Whether it is Shen Xiaotang, Xie Qiao and Qianxi, or Nana, or anyone else, they can't keep an eye on him.
Therefore, the best way is to make him empty-handed and powerless. Even if someone throws himself into his arms, he has no interest, let alone action.
Chen Tao cooperated with this: "You all come together, I, Chen, have nothing to fear!"
***
The next evening.
After leaving Ziyu Villa, Chen Tao went to Julong Garden to pick up Fang Hui and her daughter, and then went out for dinner and shopping.
At 7:30 pm, the family of three came to a clothing store called "Sunny Day".
"Welcome..."
When Tang Haibing saw Fang Hui behind Chen Tao, his expression suddenly changed, and he waved his hand with a cold face:
"Sorry, we are closing now, please go back!"
Chen Tao pretended to be puzzled: "It's not even eight o'clock yet, you are closing? Is there something going on at home and you are in a hurry to go back?"
"Your family has something going on!"
Tang Haibing said bluntly: "I am Chen Xun's buddy, I don't welcome you, please go to another store."
Fang Hui looked embarrassed.
Xue'er leaned on her father's arms, opened her beautiful round eyes, and looked at the angry Tang Haibing curiously.
Chen Tao smiled and said, "Brother, since you are his buddy, you should know that he dumped Fang Wei, right? Don't you think that you are a bit too much in treating us like this?"
Li He is Tang Haibing's buddy.
Because he stood up for Fang Wei and was stabbed to death by gangsters, Tang Haibing has never liked Fang Wei from the beginning to the end, and he is not willing to see her with Chen Xun.
Now Fang Wei is with Chen Tao and has given birth to his child, which makes him even more disgusted, so he is unwilling to receive her.
"I am too much?"
Tang Haibing said unhappily, "You are also Chen Xun's buddy, but you are still hanging out with his ex-girlfriend. Isn't that too much? How can you be a brother like this?"
Obviously, Chen Xun has told him and Sun Tao a lot of his inner thoughts.
Sun Tao is another owner of their clothing store, and he didn't come tonight.
The name of the store "Sunny Day" is to commemorate his ex-girlfriend Yang Qing.
At the beginning, he was only concerned about pleasure and got Yang Qing pregnant, but he had no money and couldn't even afford the abortion fee.
Yang Qing left him and now married an honest man in the system.
Her requirements were really not high, but Sun Tao couldn't even afford this little money, so what else could she do?
"Okay! It's all my fault. I'll go to the store next door to buy it so it doesn't bother you."
Chen Tao has no interest in dealing with people like Tang Haibing and Sun Tao. I came here tonight, just to Xidan, so it was a good time.
When one day he goes to Xintiandi and finds Chen Xun's childhood sweetheart Wu Tingting, Chen Tao will not leave so easily.
Since this cute girl always talks about wanting a sugar daddy, wouldn't it be a good idea for Chen Tao to give her a sugar daddy?
Chen Xun is his good friend, and Chen Xun's childhood sweetheart is also his childhood sweetheart. Since he has the ability, he should naturally take care of him.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility...the greater the happiness!
On the 30th, ten forty in the morning.
After Chen Tao passed the defense, he first called Shen Xiaotang, and then went to the cafeteria with Wang Senzhao.
The boss originally wanted to wait until Chen Xun and Song Ning finished their defense before going to celebrate together.
But when he learned that Shen Xiaotang was having lunch in the cafeteria, he still couldn't help it and left his buddy behind.
Wang Senzhao finished his meal and walked to the opposite side of Shen Xiaotang. Before he sat down, he asked with great concern:
"Xiaotang, how are you doing lately?"
Shen Xiaotang glanced at Chen Tao who was walking this way, and couldn't help but smile, as if he had seen General Meng's Concubine Li. She was tired from staying up late and said to Wang Senzhao with a smile:
"I'm doing very well recently! I'm not busy at work, I get off work at about the same time, but your office must work overtime a lot, so you should pay attention to your health."
After hearing the last sentence, Wang Senzhao felt like he had been soaked in hot water for three to nine days, and his whole body felt indescribably comfortable from the inside out.
Oh, you are so honest, what will you do if you meet a scumbag in the future? It really makes people worry about him!
Chen Tao sat down next to him and said to Shen Xiaotang: "Don't tease her if you don't like her. My boss is so simple and can't stand your teasing."
Shen Xiaotang said angrily: "Humph, which eye of yours saw me teasing the boss? Get corrective surgery quickly to avoid mistaking Jia Mo for Fang Hui and doing bad things to her."
Chen Tao rubbed her leg and said with a smile:
"Classmate Xiaotang, what will you do if I mistakenly identify you as Fang Hui? Will you follow the trend, or will you resist a little and then obey me?"
Shen Xiaotang stepped on him and said with a guilty conscience: "I will kick you to death first, and then I will die for you after I have lived for a hundred years. Do you think this is okay?"
Wang Senzhao just took a sip of soup, and when he heard Shen Xiaotang's words, he immediately choked, coughed repeatedly, and his face turned red.
When Chen Tao, a good friend, saw this, he patted his back gently to calm him down.
In order to prevent him from being choked again, Chen Tao stopped teasing Shen Xiaotang, and instead taught her workplace experience in a serious manner.
Shen Xiaotang listened very seriously, and Wang Senzhao also benefited a lot.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Tao and a group of eleven people went to KTV to sing.
Eight of them were specifically Chen Xun and Song Ning, he and Shen Xiaotang, Wang Senzhao and Gao Keshang, Jia Mo and Fang Hui.
The other three people are Li Qi, Xue Shan and Liu Yunwei.
They are Fang Hui's roommates and have always had a good relationship. They make dinner dates when they are free.
According to the schedule, the graduation ceremony will be held around the middle of next month, so there is not much time for everyone to get together, so we should take this opportunity to get together one last time.
Passing the microphone to Lin Jiamo, Song Ning said expectantly: "Jiamo, let's sing a song!"
Lin Jiamo refused, "I just finished singing not long ago and I need to take a break. Please let Chen Xun sing with you."
Chen Xun objected: "I don't want to sing love songs with men. Fang Hui, let's sing one together."
Fang Hui looked disgusted: "You can sing with Xiaotang! You two are a couple, my husband and I are a couple, don't get confused."
Xiaotang immediately fought back: "You have the nerve to accuse others of being confused? You and I broke up with Chen Xun in three years, how can we still be a couple? You are a thief who wants to catch a thief. You have a new boyfriend and are still dating Chen Xun. It’s obviously you!”
Fang Hui refuted: "No!"
Chen Xun admitted it: "Yes, Fang Hui has never forgotten me!"
"asshole!"
Fang Hui cursed, then hugged Chen Tao's arm and begged: "Hurry up and help me punch him twice, so that he won't talk nonsense and slander my reputation!"
Lin Jiamo said, "I don't think it's a slander."
Fang Hui said angrily: "Jiamo! Whose side are you on? Are we good sisters? You have to help me!"
Shen Xiaotang hummed: "I think Jia Mo is more suitable for Kuang Qiang, because she will not be disconnected from her ex-boyfriend."
Fang Hui couldn't hold it any longer, so she threw herself into Chen Tao's arms and said coquettishly:
"Husband, they are bullying me, please speak up for me!"
Song Ning also said anxiously: "Xiaotang, you can't say this nonsense. The person who matches Jia Mo is obviously me."
Shen Xiaotang advised: "You haven't given up after chasing for so long? I advise you to change your goal!"
Song Ning looked at Lin Jiamo subconsciously.
Lin Jiamo shook her head.
Song Ning felt so uncomfortable that she sang a song "Prison Bird" with great emotion.
After singing, Chen Taorui commented: "The listener is sad and the listener sheds tears. The word love can do a lot of harm to people."
"yes!"
Fang Hui agreed: "Jiamo, just obey Song Ning! Don't hurt him!"
The room was filled with laughter.
Even the person involved, Song Ning, couldn't help laughing.

June 5th, Ear Grain.
It’s not the hot season yet, although the maximum temperature is already in the high 30s, but at night it is only in the early 20s.
Unnamed Lakeside.
Chen Tao looked at the lake and said to Xiao Qianxi beside him:
"Qianxi, I understand you. Don't take the temporary victory or defeat too seriously. Cricket Lin Jingyan is definitely not your opponent."
"Thank you..."
Xiao Qianxi is very strong-willed.
Later, she was willing to enter the entertainment industry. In addition to making money, she was also getting more and more angry. She must beat Lin Jingyan in this race to make her mind clear.
She would not give up just like that.
Chen Tao smiled and said, "I really regret not going to watch your competition, otherwise I would have seen you cry."
Xiao Qianxi said lightly, "What kind of weird hobby is this? Which decent person likes to see friends cry?"
"That's what you don't understand. Don't think I sing well, in fact, I am more accomplished in art, so I like to find the most beautiful moments of people. In my heart, Qianxi's most beautiful moment is not on the stage with dazzling lights and thousands of people's attention, but the moment when you take off all your strength. What a pity, what a pity, I have always been very lucky, even the goddess of luck has always wanted to marry me, but I missed it at the critical moment. So I hope that you can contact me before you cry next time."
"Pfft~ Wishful thinking! I will only cry secretly in the future, and I won't cry. I will show it to you and Qiao Qiao and the others."
"Is it the kind of crying that you hide under the quilt and cry?"
"No, it's sobbing."
"Hahaha~ I have a picture. I didn't expect you to be such a Qianxi. You are more interesting than I thought. What are your plans during the summer vacation?"
"I want to go home to accompany my parents. It's been a long time since we last met. I really miss them."
"Give them my regards. If we have a chance in the future, we will go to Ebian for a trip and visit them again."
"We?"
"I am an excellent painter, so it's normal to go out and collect some wind occasionally, right? You are my good friend, and it's normal for you to be my tour guide, right? Don't think wrongly!"
"..."
Xiao Qianxi didn't think wrongly, and took out her mobile phone directly to contact Fang Hui.
Chen Tao's reaction was super strong. He immediately snatched the phone like Huoyun Evil God snatched the pistol, and then called Xie Qiao to ask her and Qin Chuan to sing.
Listening to him teasing Xie Qiao, Qianxi's pretty face showed a happy smile.
Ten days later, W University held a graduation ceremony in the school gymnasium.
Chen Tao, wearing a bachelor's gown and holding a little cutie in his arms, attracted countless eyes from his classmates.
Others graduated from undergraduate studies, while he had already graduated from life.
When Lin Jiamo slowly stepped onto the temporary stage, many classmates finally turned their eyes away and turned to pay attention to Lin Jiamo like Song Ning.
Lin Jiamo neither won the honor of "Outstanding Graduate of the City" nor was she a student who went to remote areas to help, so she would not be awarded a degree in person.
But she still had to sing the warm-up song.
The song title "As Wish" was naturally also moved by Chen Tao.
When she sang the last sentence "Like your young face", the whole venue burst into thunderous applause, which lasted for a long time.
Chen Xun and Song Ning, the brothers, even cried after hearing it. (End of this chapter)
