Entertaining Children

"I really don't have much confidence in you." Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I have taught you a few self-defense techniques, and I have not systematically taught you to fight. But Jin has acted as an agent before, and he has learned to fight. Time, if you pass the audition, you will continue to learn. If you really get into the ring, I really think you can beat her!"

"You~" Sun Tingting stared at Xiao Yao and said.

"However," Xiao Yao quickly continued, "Just because you can't beat her now, doesn't mean you won't be able to beat her in the future. Well, I still have me, I can continue to teach you! As long as you don't intend to beat her to death or maim her, I will It will definitely teach you to beat her, so that you can see her beat her once!"

"You teach me?" Sun Tingting glanced at Xiao Yao and said, "After you taught me those self-defense techniques before, you said that those few techniques are enough for me, and I don't need to learn any more. Now you are so active in teaching me, Don’t you just want to see us fight in the ring? You’re proud of someone fighting for you, aren’t you?”

"I don't have one!" Xiao Yao said with an aggrieved expression, "You were the one who said you wanted to compete with her in the boxing ring, but I'm just telling the truth. I don't teach you, why don't I watch you being beaten by her in the boxing ring?" ?”

"You~" Sun Tingting wanted to say something more, but she was interrupted by Xiao Yao just after she said a word.

"Here!" Xiao Yao suddenly looked towards the door of the coffee shop and raised his arm in greeting.

Sun Tingting looked over and found that Dean and others had come to the coffee shop, so she put down the previous topic and resumed her smiling expression.

Since Dean said before that it was about the band, Mu Ying, Zhou Jingyi and others did not show up, only four members of the band came. Dean and the others saw Xiao Yao waving, walked up to Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting and sat down.

The waiter was brought in to order drinks, and after the waiter left, Xiao Yao asked straight to the point: "What do you want to tell me? Is the band about to release a new album again, and ask me to write songs?"

"It's not about releasing an album, nor asking you to write songs, but asking you to perform together." Dean also said straight to the point, "Our band plans to hold a concert tour in the second half of the year. Because of your relationship, there will be The two stops are in Huaxia, namely Yanjing and Shencheng in Huaxia."

"You want me to be your concert guest at the two stations in China?" Xiao Yao said, "If time permits, I will try my best to participate."

"No, no, it's not the two stations in China, nor the concert guest." Dean shook his head and said, "You are a member of our band, and we hope that you will join us on this tour as a band member Concert. I mean, all the performances of this concert."

"All the shows? I'm afraid not." Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "Well, tell me first, how long will the whole concert last? From when to when? How long did the pre-rehearsal preparation take?"

"It hasn't been finalized yet." Dean said, "But the current plan is that this tour will have about 20 concerts, mainly in North America, Europe and the Far East, and is expected to last for three months. By November, the preparation time will be about one month. The concert will start in a city in the United States and end in a city in the United States. If possible, we hope that you will come to the United States in August to rehearse and prepare with us.”

"So long?" Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "I don't think I can agree."

"Is it because of timing?" Dean asked.

"Yes!" Xiao Yao nodded.

"I know," Dean said, "the concert takes a long time, and we were a little worried about your schedule. But we contacted your manager, Ms. Fang, and asked about your work schedule. She told us , You have no confirmed work plan for the second half of the year!"

"What? Have you contacted my agent?" Xiao Yao asked strangely, "But why did she tell me about it?"

"It's not her fault!" Dean said, "We know whether you accept a job or not, the final decision is in your own hands. We contacted Miss Fang just to know if you have any arrangements for the second half of the year." Work Plan,

The possibility of agreeing to us is very small. Anyway, we are going to Huaxia to attend the awards ceremony, and we will meet you. Instead of letting Ms. Fang tell you, why don't we tell you face to face. So after learning that you have no work plan for the second half of the year, we ask Ms. Fang to keep it secret for us and prepare to surprise you. "

"So it is!" Xiao Yao nodded.

After working together for so many years, Fang still cooperates with Xiao Yao very well, and knows Xiao Yao very well. If it was someone else, Fang still would definitely not agree. But for this band, Fang still knows the relationship and relationship between Xiao Yao and them, so it is reasonable to agree to keep it a secret for them.

"Can't you really come to the concert with us?" Dean continued to ask, "Miss Fang told us that you have no specific work arrangements for the second half of the year. Is there anything else that Miss Fang doesn't even know about?" Work Plan?"

"There is really no work plan for the second half of the year!" Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head.

"Then why?" Dean asked strangely.

"But I have a very important life plan for the second half of this year!" Xiao Yao continued.

"Life plan?" Dean repeated.

"Yes!" Xiao Yao took Sun Tingting's hand and put it on the table, and said with a smile, "Don't you guys know? I've already proposed to Tiana."

"What? You already proposed to Tiana?"

"Are you getting married? When?"

The four members of the band were all surprised.

Xiao Yao proposed in public at a public event like the Masters Game, but that Masters Game is China's All-Star Celebrity Game, not the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. Although Xiao Yao's public proposal of marriage is a very hot topic in the media and on the Internet, the popularity of this topic is mainly in China.

As the number one entertainment country in the world, although the US media will also forward some hot news from other countries, the strength of this report is very limited.

Xiao Yao has a certain reputation in the United States, but Xiao Yao is a Chinese star who mainly develops in China after all. If there is no explosive news, the interest of the American media in him is relatively limited. If Xiao Yao wanted to marry an American star, maybe the American media would report it extensively, but Xiao Yao, a Chinese star, proposed to a Chinese girl. Regardless of whether the girl is a star or not, it is a very normal thing in the eyes of the American media.

However, it is very strange for Xiao Yao to use the personal data he typed to express his love in that game. Some media in the United States have reported this incident because of this, but the meaning of "5201314" comes from the homonym of Chinese. Due to cultural differences, Americans do not know the meaning of those numbers, and they have to explain them incidentally when reporting, so the American media did not report on this matter very vigorously, and the spread was very limited.

It was more than a month ago that Xiao Yao proposed in public. During this period of time, these people have not seen the news of Xiao Yao's marriage proposal in the United States, nor have they been to China, so they really don't know that Xiao Yao has successfully proposed marriage.

"You really don't know?" Xiao Yao smiled, "I proposed to Tiana more than a year ago, in front of everyone at the China Basketball League All-Star Celebrity Game."

"Congratulations!" Sammy said.

"Congratulations!" Dean remembered what he said in the car before, and followed with a complicated expression.

"Congratulations!" George and Mike followed suit.

"Thank you!" Xiao Yao said, "We plan to hold the wedding in the second half of this year. The location of the wedding has not yet been determined, but the wedding date is likely to be in October. Marriage is a very important thing, before and after the wedding , we will definitely have a lot of things to do. So, I can't promise to go on a concert tour with you!"

"Okay!" Dean said helplessly, "I hope you will have time to attend the next concert!"

Xiao Yao mentioned the reason for getting married, and Dean could no longer insist on asking Xiao Yao to join the concert.

"Even if I can participate in your next concert, I think I will be a guest performer, not a band member!" Xiao Yao hesitated and said.

"What are you talking about?" Dean asked, "You are already a member of the band, why are you a guest performer?"

"You want to officially quit the band?" Samien asked looking at Xiao Yao.

"What? Really?" Dean and the other three were shocked and stared at Xiao Yao.

"Actually, I haven't been a member of the band for a long time." Xiao Yao smiled wryly, "I'm in China, and you are all in the United States. How can there be a band whose members have been separated for a long time, and are still in two countries thousands of miles apart? "

"That's because we can't come to China to develop, and you don't want to come to the United States!" Dean said.

"Yes!" Xiao Yao nodded, "But I am from China, and you are Americans. It is impossible for you to leave everything in the United States to come to China, and it is impossible for me to leave everything in China to go to the United States. When I joined your The band is for fun, and it is also to help you overcome difficulties and complete that school celebration performance. When I finished my exchange student at West Bridge Middle School, I should have officially quit the band. The reason why I didn’t do that is mainly because It's about our relationship."

"So if you want to quit now, you want to give up our relationship?" Dean said a little excitedly, "Do you want to completely sever ties with us?"

"Of course not!" Xiao Yao immediately shook his head and said, "In any case, the year at West Bridge Middle School was a very precious and unforgettable time in my life, and we will always be friends!"

"At the beginning, I kept the name in the band, one reason was because of the relationship between us, and the other reason was to consider the careers of all of us." Xiao Yao said, "At that time, our band was just in the United States. With a little bit of fame, and I am not particularly famous in the United States and China. From the perspective of career development, I needed you at that time, and you also needed me. Keep my name in the band, combine me and Putting you together in some form is better for all of us professionally."

"You are too humble." Samion shook his head. "We did need you at that time, but I don't think you needed us. Whether it was at Westbridge Middle School or later, you never needed us. You were in Names are kept in the band just for convenience and to help us."

"Okay, I agree with you to officially quit the band!" Samien continued.

"What? Sammy, are you crazy?" Dean said to Sammy in disbelief, almost yelling.

"Dean, don't you realize that since we met Yang, he has been helping us all the time, but we can hardly help him!" Samion still looked at Dean calmly and said, "You still How long do you want to tie Yang up?"

"No, Sammy," Xiao Yao said, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have appeared on the stage of the Oscars. That incident was a very important experience in my acting career, and it was very important to my career development in Huaxia. important."

"Come on!" Samion shook his head and said, "Based on your ability at the time, you can apply to the school to perform a solo performance in the school celebration performance. You are an exchange student, and the performance level is much higher than ours. It is impossible for the school to refuse Agreed. You will also reunite with Betty, you will also visit Betty's house, and meet the composer of the animated film. "Immortals" is your previous work, and when the composer asks you for help, you can also use that Get the song out.

With your relationship with Betty and Keith, even without us, the soundtrack artist would still use your song. It's not that there are no foreign performers at the Oscars. Even if you are not American, you will still appear on the stage of the Oscars without us. Perhaps, without us, you will get more attention. "

"However, we also came to Huaxia to help Yang perform, that Huaxia variety show, the final!" Dean reminded angrily.

"But we didn't help him win the championship, did we?" Sami En said, "Also, not only us, but also a Korean star helped him in the final. I think if he wants, Maybe Keith and the others can be invited to Huaxia to be his guest performers, maybe the results will be better, but he doesn't want to trouble Keith and the others. We just came to Huaxia at that time, so we were found by him! "

"Sami..." Xiao Yao looked at Sami En and said.

"Don't talk, listen to me," Samien waved his hand to stop him, "Over the years, you have been developing in China, and not only in music. You are an actor, and the focus of these years is obviously on acting .We are a band that doesn't matter to your career, you're only there because of our relationship. Is it?"

Xiao Yao smiled wryly, but did not respond.

"I know you are not interested in the concert at all." Samien continued, "Your wedding with Tiana is just a good reason, even without this matter, you have no other work arrangements, you You will also find other reasons to refuse, right?"

"How do you know?" Xiao Yao didn't answer, but Dean said unconvinced, "That's a world-class concert. Even if Yang is an actor, he's still a singer. He hasn't given up on music and is still making music. works. As a singer with aspirations, who wouldn’t want to hold a world-class concert?”

"He doesn't want to, at least not now." Samion pointed at Xiao Yao.

"How do you know?" Dean asked again.

"Because Yang is in China, no, he is more famous than our band in the world. Even in the United States, he is no worse than us." Samien said, "If he wants to hold a concert, he should have done it as soon as possible." Then you can hold a solo concert, whether it is held in China or in other countries in the world. The world tour concert is not a problem for him now, and the results may be better than ours, but he opened a solo concert Is it a concert?"

"Dean, Jan has his own career!" Samion said, "I think it's time for us to let Xiao Yao go!"

"Jan said that quitting the band does not mean that we have nothing to do with us, we are still friends!" Seeing that Dean was silent, Samion added.

"Okay, I agree that Yang officially quits the band!" Dean thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth.
