"Ding dong!"
"Hello, dear passengers, this train is about to arrive at Beijing Station, please get ready in advance …"
The voice that came from the train's broadcast system woke Xu Kai up from his sleep.
He immediately turned over and sat up, took out his mobile phone under his pillow, and looked at it. It was already 7: 27 in the morning.
They had arrived at Beijing.
"Honey, get up!"
Putting on his coat, Xu Kai pushed his girlfriend, who was sleeping on the soft sleeper opposite him, and said, "We're about to get off."
Ke Yao rubbed her sleepy eyes, raised her head, and asked in a daze, "We've arrived at Beijing?"
Xu Kai smiled and said, "Yes!"
His mood was inexplicably excited. He reached out to wipe the foggy window and saw the high-rise buildings flashing by outside the window.
Beijing, here I come!
Xu Kai and his girlfriend boarded the high-speed rail to Beijing at 9 o 'clock last night. After a ten-and-a-half-hour journey, they finally arrived at the city he had been longing for for a long time.
This time, Xu Kai deliberately asked for a few days off from the company and brought his girlfriend to Beijing for three main purposes.
First of all, of course, it was to fulfill one of his past wishes, which was to go to Beijing to play, visit the Forbidden City, climb the Great Wall, and enjoy the scenery and beauty of the capital of the motherland.
Second, it was to bring his girlfriend to celebrate a special Valentine's Day.
Tomorrow was Valentine's Day in 2019. Although the two had spent several Valentine's Days together after falling in love with Ke Yao, the previous Valentine's Days were just the usual routine of eating and watching movies. There was nothing new and not very romantic.
This time, Xu Kai was making up to Ke Yao.
The last and most important purpose was to attend Lu Chen's "A Lifetime of Love" concert that would be held at the Beijing Olympic Sports Center tomorrow night. This was also Lu Chen's first solo concert!
Ke Yao was a fan of Lu Chen!
This concert was of great significance. The tickets sold online were sold out in a few seconds, and those who could get one were considered lucky.
As for Xu Kai, he did not rely entirely on luck to be able to buy the tickets, and two of them at that. He had anticipated the possibility of the tickets selling like hotcakes, so he wrote a small program to buy the tickets and hung it on the company's computer to buy the tickets. Relying on the company's network speed of up to 1000M, he finally got what he wanted.
In fact, Deep Sea was one of the stops on Lu Chen's nationwide tour, but the significance of the first show and the branch shows were very different. In addition, it happened to be a special day like Valentine's Day, so the Beijing Olympic Sports Stadium was Xu Kai's first choice.
If he didn't get a ticket, he would consider continuing to fight for tickets for the Deep Sea Station.
After getting the tickets, Ke Yao was very happy and gave him a lot of sweet rewards.
Although the ticket and hotel fees for this concert in Beijing were not cheap, Xu Kai felt that it was completely worth it. Furthermore, he had prepared a special Valentine's Day gift for Ke Yao.
Xu Kai touched the small square box in his pocket and smiled.
"What are you laughing at?"
Ke Yao, who had just woken up, pushed her boyfriend and said with a disgusted expression, "Why are you smiling so lewdly!"
Xu Kai grinned and said, "It's nothing."
"It's so weird …"
Ke Yao was skeptical and pushed him again. "Hurry up and pack your luggage."
The two of them had just finished packing their luggage when the high-speed train stopped at the Beijing Station.
They got out of the car and took a taxi to the hotel they had booked.
At the pick-up point of the taxi, Xu Kai and Ke Yao waited in line for more than an hour before it was their turn.
Because there were too many passengers waiting in line.
However, this did not diminish the excitement and enthusiasm of the two of them. This was Ke Yao's second time in Beijing. The last time she came to Beijing, she was still very young and was brought up by her family. She did not leave much of an impression.
Now that she was spending Valentine's Day with her boyfriend, the feeling was completely different and fresh enough.
The taxi drove forward for a few hundred meters, and the middle-aged driver asked, "Where are you going?"
Xu Kai replied, "Sir, please take us to the Five Ring Hotel, the one next to the Olympic Sports Center."
"I know …"
The driver smiled and said, "Are you here to watch Lu Chen's concert?"
Xu Kai and Ke Yao were both shocked and asked in unison, "How did you know?"
This middle-aged driver was simply prophetic. Could it be that a taxi driver in Beijing had to learn fortune-telling?
The middle-aged driver laughed and said, "I guessed it. Yesterday, I took three trips to the Olympic Sports Center. One trip to the Five Ring Hotel where you are staying, and two trips to the Thousand Leaves Hotel. They are all from other places who came to watch the concert."
So that's how it is! Xu Kai and Ke Yao suddenly realized that this was really a coincidence.
The middle-aged driver asked again, "Your hotel has been booked, right? If you haven't, there will definitely be no rooms left now. They have all been booked. "
Xu Kai smiled and said, "I booked it a long time ago."
"That's good …"
The driver was actually a little disappointed, but he immediately changed the topic. "There are so many people coming to watch Lu Chen's concert this time. Many of them are from other places. Actually, I also like Lu Chen's songs, such as' I Love You China '."
As he spoke, he directly sang, "I love you China, I love you China ~ I love you vigorous seedlings in spring, I love you golden fruits in autumn, I love you green pine temperament, I love you red plum character …"
The middle-aged driver was fat and strong. Not only was he eloquent, but he also sang very well. Not only did he sing "I Love You China" perfectly, but his voice was also very powerful and accurate.
This was also a major feature of Beijing taxis. Most of the drivers were very good at speaking. Many of them had no problem doing crosstalk. All kinds of jokes would jump out one after another. It was not rare for them to be able to sing.
After singing a section, Ke Yao immediately applauded. Xu Kai gave him a thumbs up and praised, "That's amazing, Master."
The middle-aged driver beamed with joy. He touched his head and said with a smile, "My singing is actually average. The main thing is that the song is good. This song is really well written. I have listened to it hundreds of times. The more I listen to it, the more interesting it becomes."
"My daughter is also a fan of Lu Chen. She is still a high school student. She has all of Lu Chen's records. She also wanted to watch this concert, but she didn't manage to get a ticket. Haha, it saved me a lot of money …"
It was the morning rush hour, and the taxi was not unexpectedly stuck on the way to the hotel. However, Xu Kai and Ke Yao did not find it difficult because they could talk about Lu Chen and his songs with the chatty middle-aged driver.
Finally, when they arrived at the hotel and bid farewell to the middle-aged driver, the two of them still felt that they had not finished talking.
And just this morning, there were many people like Xu Kai and Ke Yao who had come to Beijing to watch Lu Chen's first concert. They had gathered in Beijing from different places just to participate in this music feast that could not be missed.
