Dan and several other teammates nervously surrounded Jiang Xiaoyuan, wanting to know if her father, a Xiaguo composer who had recently become famous, was nearby.
"No, dad... did not come to the United States with me, he is still... still in the country..."
The little girl's hand that was holding the drumstick tightly drooped, and her energetic little head drooped. Her big watery eyes looked at the ground sadly, and her toes were rubbing back and forth on the ground, looking frustrated. His expression makes people feel sad just looking at him.
"Huh? No way, you are such a young child, your father is willing to throw you abroad alone?"
Wayne's mouth opened wide in surprise. He squatted down and wanted to reach out and touch the little girl's head to comfort her, but he was afraid that the tattoo on his arm would scare the child, so he hesitated for a while.
Dan Dao didn't have these worries. His majestic body like a bear squatted next to Xiaoyuan, stretched out his thick arms and gently patted the little girl's shoulder, using the gentlest touch he could. The voice asked:
"Your father is not here, so you are traveling with your mother, right? Your parents are not with you, right?"
Xiaoyuan raised her head with an aggrieved look, tears already welling up in her eyes. She opened her mouth and was about to say something, when suddenly another little girl's sharp shout came from a distance:
"What do you want to do? Stay away from my sister!"
I saw a little girl wearing a yellow sweatshirt with a thick golden braid on her head, and she rushed towards them quickly with a frightened expression on her face!
"Stay away from my sister, you big brown bears, it's broad daylight, why are you surrounding her with a child!"
The little blond girl looks older than Xiaoyuan. After all, the Omi race develops very quickly. She is only two years older. This little girl is almost half a head taller than Xiaoyuan, although her face still looks childish. , but his demeanor didn’t look like a child who didn’t understand anything at all.
"Hehehehe, relax little girl, we are not bullying her, we are teaching her to play the drums. Did you see the drumstick in her hand?"
Several sturdy men quickly took a few steps back. Because they were too concerned, they were indeed very close to Xiaoyuan now, and the little girl still had a wronged and sad expression on her face. It was difficult for onlookers not to misunderstand what they were doing. What have you done to this little girl?
Dan also pointed to the drumstick hanging down in Xiaoyuan's hand, indicating that he had no ill intentions towards the little girl.
"Really? Why do I not believe it so much? Xiaoyuan even cried and said, did you bully her?"
After all, she is two years older than Xiaoyuan. Judy's knowledge is not only two years more than hers, but the little girl who was born and raised here has seen how nasty things guys like them who are full of rock and roll can do. He grabbed hold of Xiaoyuan and pulled her out. At the same time, she had a wary expression on her face, feeling that she would scream for help at any time if the situation was bad.
After all, this is also a small square in the school. Although today is a holiday, there are basically few people in the school. However, there are some school workers cleaning or pruning branches around. There is also a security booth in the distance. The little girl’s Her voice was extremely sharp, and if she screamed, someone would immediately rush over to "do justice" for them.
"Judy, they didn't bully me, they were teaching me how to use the instrument..."
Only then did Xiaoyuan realize what was going on. She finally stopped under the pull of her cousin and hurriedly explained to her:
"They were practicing musical instruments here. I came over out of curiosity after listening to the sound. These uncles are very good and taught me how to play the drums. Look!"
She picked up the drumstick in her hand and shook it a few times in front of the other party.
"But I saw you crying... They really didn't bully you?"
"Of course not, it's just..."
"Just what?"
Little adult Judy glanced at the two drumsticks in Xiaoyuan's hand in confusion, then raised her head and glanced in confusion at the four macho musicians not far away with awkward smiles on their faces. The guarded look on their faces finally faded away. .
But she still turned her head suspiciously and stared at those people, as if she wanted to memorize all their faces.
"Of course not, little girl, we are real rock musicians, not on the same level as you lame guys from the West Coast!"
Several people who had been ridiculed by their local colleagues in the past few days took the opportunity to retaliate. Daniel's words were even more damaging:
"We are a serious rock band from the East Coast. We don't smoke leaves, gamble, or flirt with girls. We just drink a few bottles of wine occasionally - all musicians drink, right? Without wine, there would be nothing. inspiration……"
Perhaps realizing that he was off topic, he immediately pulled back:
"Hey, where did I go? Really, believe me, ask your sister if we bullied her. She only cried because we asked her if her father was here too. He is a famous composer. Home, right? We adore him!"
"Is that so, Xiaoyuan? They didn't bully you? They just asked your father?"
She looked at her cousin who still looked like she was about to cry, pulled her into her arms, patted her shoulders to comfort her, and asked.
"Yes, I told them that my father is also a musician and wrote that song, and they asked me about my father very excitedly..."
Xiaoyuan had stopped feeling sad at this time, but her cute little nose was still twitching. When she heard her sister's question, she didn't think much and answered directly.
"Hey, silly boy, your father's identity cannot be revealed to anyone, especially to these rock and roll people. What if they tie you up and ask your father to redeem you with a song?"
Although she is a cousin, she is actually just a little girl in her early ten years. Watching too much TV with her parents will naturally be affected. To be honest, such a surprising method of kidnapping and ransoming has not even been thought of by the author before. Pass.
"Well, what I remember is that I forgot just now, and then they asked me if my father was here, traveling with me in the United States. I said no, and they asked me if my mother was accompanying me. Let me know I felt sad when I thought about my parents not being with me, and then at this time, at this time you came over..."
There was a cry in Xiaoyuan's words, but it also made Judy sigh in relief.
It was just that her cousin's pitiful experience made her unhappy. She hugged her shoulders, put her little chin on it and rubbed it a few times to comfort her:
"It's okay. You will see them. My dad has asked a friend to find a way to contact your dad and tell him your current situation. Do you want to live with your dad? Or your mom?"
"I don't want to live with my mother. She always loses her temper for no reason and says things I don't understand...I, I want to live with my dad..."
The two sisters were talking to each other, but the four tough guys from the Pink Dragon band were standing aside awkwardly. There happened to be a school janitor wearing a hat with the school's brand name on his head who was pruning branches and hurried after hearing the sound. He came over, holding a creepy-looking red chainsaw in his hand, staring at them eagerly, making them neither cry nor laugh.
"Uncle Jack, it's okay. It was my sister who cried when she thought of some sad things. It was not their fault..."
Only then did Judy react and waved to the school guard.
Only then did the chainsaw man known as Jack tip his hat suspiciously with his hand, then gave the four tough men a stern warning look before turning around and continuing to finish his work for the day.
"Hey, little girl, is her father really not in the United States? Not here? We are his fans and really want to meet him to discuss music creation issues..."
Dan, who was as strong as a human bear, picked his nose in embarrassment. His other hand subconsciously straightened the T-shirt he had just put on to make it more straight - he was used to being shirtless. , which can not only show off his toned tendons, but also better dissipate heat in this hot summer. Playing rock music is not a job that can cultivate your body and keep your mind calm and cool naturally.
"Her father is not here. I'm sorry, you can't see him for the time being. Also, I'm sorry just now, it was me who wronged you..."
Judy reached out and took the two drumsticks in Jiang Xiaoyuan's hands, then quickly came to the side of the four people, and placed them on the drum set that shone brightly in the sun, her face A very forced smile appeared on his face.
"Really? That's such a pity. Alas, I even want to thank him in person for writing a new song for us. If you see him, please say hello to him on our behalf and express our highest gratitude! "
"We're the Pink Dragons, I'm Dan, lead vocals and drums, this is Daniel, viola and guest drummer, Wayne, guitar, and Ben... um, bassist, we're a rock band from the East Coast. , we admire that little girl’s father very much…”
Dan waved his hand and took a step back again, trying to make a good impression on this little girl who was young but seemed to have a very mature mind.
"Okay, I will convey my greetings to you, if I meet him..."
After all, she had never had the experience of talking to several adult men who were more than 20 years older than herself at the same time. Judy was still very nervous at this time. The size of the other people was really scary, especially the one with blond hair. Dan with short hair looks like a brown bear walking upright...
She put down the drumstick and left these words, then cautiously walked backwards back to where Xiaoyuan was standing, then grabbed the little girl and ran out in a hurry.
"Hey, we are being treated as bad guys..."
Dan looked at the two children running away in the distance, couldn't help but touched the back of his head in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile.
"Yeah, but it's really scary. If I had a daughter and saw four strong men surrounding her, I would also feel nervous, hahahaha!"
Wayne put his hands on his hips and laughed a few times, as if to relieve the embarrassment just now.
"Okay, guys, let's keep practicing. The next concert starts tomorrow, so we have to prepare well!"
Dan retracted his gaze in the direction of the disappearing figures of the two people, turned around and clapped his hands a few times to encourage everyone.
…
"Xiaoyuan, did I scare you just now? You are so brave. This is not your Xia Kingdom. People with tattoos, guitars and drumsticks, you have to stay away from them, you know? Especially those who look at Those who go up there are confused and depressed, and they have to walk around when they see them, do you understand?"
After walking out of the school gate, the little girl Judy breathed a sigh of relief. Next to here is the school gate. The security guards are professionals with guns in their hands. In the hearts of primary school students, these strong and kind security uncles are not afraid at all. Any bad guy.
"I, I'm not scared. They are actually very kind, and they like my dad very much. My dad... He really wrote a lot of songs in Xia Kingdom, right? Many people like him, right?"
8-year-old Xiaoyuan looked at her sister, who was not much older than herself, with curiosity in her eyes. In her eyes, this cousin treated her better than her mother. She would share everything delicious, drinkable and fun with her. The important thing is that she never suddenly starts to lose her temper for no reason and scolds her innocent self like her mother did some time ago...
"Yes, it seems...well, I'm not particularly sure, but I have listened to some of his songs recently. Although I don't understand them, I still feel that his writing is great. What about you, Xiaoyuan, do you like music? I saw that you seemed to like those musical instruments just now?"
Pulling her sister towards home, Judy was chatting with Xiaoyuan about her and music along the way.
"Music? I didn't like it very much before, but today when I looked at those instruments, I suddenly felt that they were so cool, especially the drum. I felt that playing the drum felt good, really!"
As she spoke, she raised her two small arms and knocked heavily on the air in front of her:
"Boom boom boom! Haha!"
"Really? Many people don't actually know what talents they have. Your father is so good at music, so you might be like him, right? Our school's music room seems to have this too. Let's talk to the music teacher later. Say, let you try again?"
Judy dotingly touched her sister's little black hair. Her hair was not tied very well today so it was a little prickly, but she liked the feeling of being a sister who could take care of others.
"Does our school also have drums? Okay, okay, I like that feeling so much, boom boom boom, haha, it's so fun!"
As the little girl talked, she forgot about what she had been talking about about her father. The tears on her face were not completely dry, so she talked and laughed with her little sister Judy, happily walking and talking.
