Chapter 44 Let You Tang Finished
On the high-speed train to Shanghai.
Cheng Ran had headphones in his ears and was eating potato chips: "You are really loyal. None of those two sons of bitches are filial. Old Yu has a girlfriend and wants to date him, but Old Lu is lying in his dorm playing games and won't come out with me."
Chu Ze glanced at him.
Do you think he wants to hang out with you? He just wants to escape.
"Didn't you run out of money after you treated Bo Gang last time? How come you still have money to go out and play now?"
"It's the beginning of the month now, and my living expenses have just arrived. I'm alive for the time being." Cheng Ran chuckled.
"Now that you have money, can you replace your damn headphones?" Chu Ze pointed at the wireless headphones on his ears.
Are the sound leakage of these low-quality, unknown brand headphones of yours too serious?
I can clearly hear the sound coming from the headphones even when I'm sitting next to them...
It’s still Xia Anruo’s song.
Listening to Xia Anruo's voice in Cheng Ran's headphones, Chu Ze now felt inexplicably awkward no matter how he listened to it.
It's just a weird feeling like - Bro, how come my wife is in your phone?
Although Xia Anruo is not her wife but just a friend, Cheng Ran is not a brother but just a son.
But the analogy makes perfect sense.
"Headphones are just for listening, why should they be changed?" Cheng Ran took off his headphones, took a look at them, then put them back on without a care in the world.
"You're pretty frugal in that respect."
“I’ve always been frugal.”
"The kind of thriftiness that involves buying a song twenty times?" Chu Ze said sarcastically.
"What do you know? That's because we want to help An Ruo get on the list." Cheng Ran showed an expression that said, "You are an outsider, so what do you know?"
"hehe."
I may not understand fan circles, but there is no way a father doesn’t understand his son.
I make steamed buns and pickles for myself, and give delicious food to the goddess.
Isn't this just dog licking?
At least a bootlicker can still say a few words to the goddess, but when you are a star chaser, the star doesn’t even recognize you.
Who are you sending it to?
He is worse than a dog.
……
after an hour.
Chu Ze and Cheng Ran walked out of the high-speed rail station with their bags on their backs. Looking at the tall buildings outside, they couldn't help but sigh that this city is indeed one of the most economically developed cities in the country.
Both of them are country people who have moved to the city.
"Where to go next?" Chu Ze asked.
"I don't know." Cheng Ran replied.
"No, you shouted in the group that you wanted to come to Shanghai, but you didn't even make a travel plan?" Chu Ze knew that this guy was unreliable, but he didn't expect him to be so unreliable.
"I have planned to go somewhere, but I have to wait until tomorrow," Cheng Ran explained.
"what about now?"
"Don't worry, let me first check where the hotel we booked is." Cheng Ran waved his hand to signal him not to worry, then opened his phone and started looking through it.
After a while, Cheng Ran looked up blankly: "Well, Chu Ze, tell me your ID number again..."
"what?"
"Book a hotel."
???
"You haven't even booked a hotel yet?" Chu Ze was shocked.
"Ahem, it was a mistake. I seem to have forgotten to pay and the order was cancelled." Cheng Ran touched his nose awkwardly. He remembered that he had ordered it.
Can you forget this?
Why don't you forget your mind?
Oh, sorry, I forgot you have no brains. Chu Ze felt that hanging out with Cheng Ran was a mistake, and it would be better for him to go back to Jiangcheng and play games with Lao Lu.
Speechlessly, she gave him her ID number again, watched Cheng Ran operate for a long time, then scratched her head in confusion again: "It's over, it seems that all the rooms are fully booked."
"Then why don't you change hotels?" Chu Ze had a headache.
Do you still need to think about this kind of thing?
My dog knows that the toilet is full, so he goes to another place to poop.
"But this hotel is very close to the Shanghai New Era Shopping Mall, and I have planned to go there tomorrow." Cheng Ran said after a moment of hesitation.
"Mall? Do you want to buy anything?" Chu Ze asked.
"No, it's just that this mall has just opened and there's an event going on, and there's a performance to watch tomorrow." Cheng Ran shook his head.
"What show?"
"You'll know tomorrow." Cheng Ran kept it a secret.
Chu Ze was too lazy to be curious. It was normal for children to have some secrets when they grow up that were not convenient for their parents to know.
"So you didn't come to Shanghai just to watch this show?"
"What? Is it illegal to watch a performance?"
"Okay, I have no objection. It doesn't matter to me anyway." Chu Ze shrugged. He didn't care whether he watched the show or not. He didn't have any particular place he wanted to go to anyway. "There can't be only one hotel next to the mall. You can look for a few more."
"I checked all the hotels nearby, and they were all full." Cheng Ran searched for several hotels close to the shopping mall on the app, but they were all full.
Cheng Ran guessed that all the tickets were booked by people who were going to the mall to watch the show.
"It can't be so outrageous during the National Day holiday? We can't even book a room?" Chu Ze didn't understand.
Even during the National Day tourist peak season, it's not possible that such a big city couldn't even book a hotel.
"That's not the case. There are rooms available in places farther away from the mall, but the ones near the mall are all full." Cheng Ran randomly chose a hotel that was farther away, and a room was immediately available.
Apparently it was because of the performance.
"Then why don't you just book a place farther away?" Chu Ze said.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to get there in time tomorrow." Cheng Ran said worriedly.
"You don't get up early?"
"Too."
Cheng Ran thought it made sense, and after a few operations, he finally booked a double room in a hotel about an hour away from the mall.
Following the navigation, Chu Ze and Cheng Ran took the subway and changed trains several times, and walked for a long time before they finally arrived at the booked hotel.
After checking in at the front desk, the two took the room card and went upstairs, found their room and swiped the card to enter.
"What kind of crappy hotel did you find? Isn't there one closer? It's too damn far." As soon as he entered the room, Chu Ze threw his backpack on the bed. His legs were numb from walking.
"You asked me to order a place farther away." Cheng Ran spread his hands.
"I told you to book a room farther away from the mall, but I didn't tell you to book a room so far from the station!" Chu Ze complained.
"Ah? Oh..." Cheng Ran slapped his forehead and suddenly realized what had happened. Then he angrily said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
"...Do I need to tell you this?"
Let you finish all the trouble...
It made me laugh.
"Forget it, we've already moved in..."
At this point, Chu Ze was too lazy to care about it. Cheng Ran remembered the plan for the next day and reminded him, "By the way, tomorrow's performance starts at nine in the morning. It will take at least an hour to get there, so we have to get up early tomorrow. Don't be too late to get up by then."
"You'd better make sure you don't oversleep first." Chu Ze glanced at him with contempt.
Who was the one who was always late for class last semester and almost had all his regular marks deducted?
"Just kidding, I'm not stupid. I have an alarm clock." Cheng Ran shook his phone to indicate that there was no need to worry.
……
the next day.
Cheng Ran opened his eyes sleepily, looked at the big 9:03 on the phone screen, and fell into deep thought.
No, where is my alarm clock?
