Chapter 182

In the face of Jin's accusation, Xiao Yao didn't explain it, but just laughed bitterly.

Of course, Jin didn't give Xiao Yao a chance to explain. After calling Xiao Yao, Jin didn't look at Xiao Yao any more. He quickly left and went back to his responsible area to sort out the goods that had just been knocked off the shelves because of chasing the thief. After a while, when the police arrived, she had to go to the police station to take notes. She had to hurry up to tidy up the thief and the mess in her own area.

Xiao Yao, on the other hand, calmly picked up the shopping cart that tripped up the thief and began to sort out the goods scattered on the ground.

Before long, police officers arrived and took the three thieves away. As a witness at the scene, Jin also went to the police station to take notes.

After seeing off the police, several white shop assistants who successfully caught several thieves got together and talked excitedly about their heroic deeds just now. However, in their talks, they did not express dissatisfaction or disdain for Xiao Yao's performance as Jin did. After all, we all know that Xiao Yao is not only an international exchange student from China, but also a high school student. His beautiful face and quiet performance make us feel that it is perfectly normal for him to react in the face of three fierce black youths, especially when one of them has a knife in his hand.

The first day of working overtime in the supermarket happened quickly, and there was nothing special happened in the next few days. The time soon came to the weekend, that is, the day when Betty invited Xiao Yao to be a guest at home.

Beverly Hills is located in the middle of Calabasas city and Los Angeles City. It's about an hour's drive from Smith's house to Betty's villa on Beverly Hills. It's not far or near. Xiao Yao wants to talk to Mrs. Smith anyway.

"Shall I drive you?" Xiao Yao is going to visit a friend's home. No matter whether that friend is a star or not, Mrs. Smith has no reason to object. She just asks enthusiastically.

"No need." Xiao Yao didn't know how long she would stay at Betty's house this time, so she didn't want to bother Mrs. Smith too much. She shook her head and refused, "I don't know how long she will stay, so I'd better take a taxi."

"I think I can bring you a signed record of Keith Craig." Xiao Yao smiles and looks at his Dean road enviously. The band originally planned to perform the songs of "daydream" band on the school anniversary. It can be seen that Dean should be a fan of "daydream" band.

"You really know me." Dean immediately came over and gave Xiao Yao a punch in the shoulder with a smile.

As a fan of "daydream", Dean is eager to have a signature record of the band's lead singer and soul character Keith Craig. Xiao Yao's visit to Craig's home is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity, but Xiao Yao is a friend. He is not sure whether Xiao Yao will lose face when he goes to find a friend to ask for his signature, so he has been hesitant to speak to Xiao Yao .

The Beverly Hills housing estate is home to many American sports and entertainment stars. It's not surprising to see any luxury cars here. On the contrary, it's very rare for taxis to appear here. Xiao Yao, sitting in a taxi, shows up in front of the luxurious villa on Beverly Hills by Betty bellette and Keith Craig.

"Hi, Yang! Welcome Because Xiao Yao was informed of the arrival time in advance, when Xiao Yao rang the door bell of Craig's house, Betty personally went to the gate to open the door to meet Xiao Yao.

"Hi, Betty!" Xiao Yao said with a smile to Betty who came to the gate to meet him.

"Come in." Betty smiles and sideways to let Xiao Yao into the room. She glances at the empty door and asks Xiao Yao strangely, "why didn't you see your car? How did you get here? "

"Hey, Betty, don't forget that I'm a Chinese. I can only get a driver's license when I'm 18, not when I'm 16 in America. I came by taxi Xiao Yao reminds Betty with a bitter smile.

"Oh, my fault!" Betty patted her forehead a little annoyed. "I should have sent a car to pick you up."

Betty really ignores the fact that Chinese people can only get their driving license at the age of 18. In the United States, where you can use a driver's license as an ID card, the first thing most ordinary children do when they are 16 years old is to test their driver's license, not to mention the rich second generation and star second generation who are eager to show off in their luxury cars. She remembers that Qin Qingyang and Yin Xi told her that Xiao Yao was the second-generation star of Huaxia, so it should not be a problem for him to buy a car, but they forgot that the age limit for driving test in Huaxia law was different from that in the United States.

"It's OK," Xiao Yao said with a smile. "When I come to Beverly Hills by taxi, the rate of turning back is much higher than that by private car. I think it's cool."

"All right," Betty said with a smile, "but for the safety of other drivers on the road, I'd better let my driver drive you back so that they don't have any accidents when they look back at the rare taxi on Beverly Hills."

"Well, I agree." Xiao Yao put out his hand with a smile.

Then, instead of taking back his hands, Xiao Yao continued to tell Betty: "I know that according to American etiquette, I should bring a bottle of good wine as a gift for visiting. But the law of the United States stipulates that businesses are not allowed to sell alcohol to young people under the age of 21, so I couldn't buy alcohol, so I had to come empty handed. By the way, this is the American law I hate the most. When I was in China, when I graduated from junior high school, I almost got drunk and no one interfered. ""It doesn't matter. In my house, if you want to drink, I'll give you a drink. " "It doesn't matter if you're drunk," Betty told Xiao Yao, who complained about American law

"Hey, it's against the law for you to do that." Xiao Yao followed Betty and turned to the side of the room.

"I don't care if it's illegal or not." Betty raised her head slightly.

"That's not what a public figure should say." Xiao Yao continued to tease.

"At home, no one is a public figure." Betty's right.

"Also, since you said you should bring home gifts, as compensation for not having home gifts, you will play a piano song for us later. The last time I heard you play the piano was seven years ago. After such a long time, your piano must be better. " Betty went on.

"Your husband plays music. He plays the piano in your house. I'm afraid he will regard it as my provocation to him. I'm afraid he will not be happy." Xiao Yao joked.

"So what? It's true that Keith is better at playing the guitar, but when it comes to playing the piano, I don't think Keith can match you Betty doesn't care about the way.

"Now I'm really upset." With the words, a young man in his thirties came out.

"Hello, Yang. Nice to meet you. Welcome to my house. " The young man pretended to be discontented for only two seconds, then put on a smiling face and extended his hand to Xiao Yao.

"Hi Keith. Nice to meet you. It's a beautiful tattoo. " Xiao Yao reaches out his hand and shakes the young man. By the way, he praises the tattoo on his little arm.

"Thank you." Keith Craig replied with a smile, and then said to Xiao Yao, "it happens that there will be a patio at home tonight. Some friends will come later. I hope you have a good evening."

"Thank you It's Xiao Yao's turn to say thank you this time. It's a common occurrence that American stars like to drive stairs. Xiao Yao is not particularly surprised by this.

"Well, let's have dinner first. Let's talk at the table. " When Betty saw that they were officially acquainted, she said hello to them.

Although it will be earlier to finish school on Friday, Xiao Yao still has to go back to Smith's house to change his clothes. With more than an hour's drive, Xiao Yao's arrival at Craig's house is almost dinner time.

Maybe Xiao Yao's complaint was taken seriously. During dinner, Betty really asked her servant to prepare red wine for Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao also picked up his glass and drank it. This is Xiao Yao's first drink since he came to the United States.

As a member of a rock band, even if he is a father, Keith has a lot of rebellious factors in his body. Naturally, he has no opinions about Xiao Yao, a 17-year-old, drinking.

"I've seen your band perform on school day recorded by Betty on her mobile phone. Yang, I want to know, did you really write that song "immortals" During the dinner, Keith mentioned the song performed by the band on school day.

"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded and said, "what do you think?"

"Very good!" Keith raised his hands and gave a thumbs up. Then he looked at Xiao Yao eagerly and said, "can you sell it to me?"

"Sorry, I can't." Xiao Yao shook his head apologetically.

Hearing Xiao Yao's reply, Keith looked at Xiao Yao in surprise and said, "you refuse my offer without listening to it? And if this song is sung by my "daydream", it will be more famous and your name will be known by more people. "

"It has nothing to do with the price," Xiao Yao seriously looked back at Keith and said, "this is the first song of our band, or the song with the same name as our band. Therefore, although the copyright belongs to me, the right to use it can only belong to our band. As for myself, having fun is the most important thing. As for personal popularity, whether in China or the United States, I believe that as long as my performance is good enough, I will naturally be known by more people. "

"Well, that's a good idea." Hearing Xiao Yao's firm refusal, Keith was not angry or dissatisfied, but praised Xiao Yao again. Immersed in the entertainment industry for more than 10 years, he has seen too many bands or groups fall apart. The reason why his "daydream" band has existed for more than 10 years now is that he has the same idea as Xiao Yao in this aspect.

"Yang is a genius. If you want to be famous, it won't be very difficult." Betty also said, "don't forget that Yang was a talented young photographer at that time besides playing music..."

"speaking of photography, are there any new works recently?" Betty said, looking at Xiao Yao and saying, "it seems that I haven't seen ys's photography for a year. Would you like me to introduce some photography projects here?"

"Hey, who said I didn't have any photography this year?" Xiao Yao jokingly said to Betty: "during this year's men's Basketball World Championships, the photo album of Chinese men's basketball published in the French sports album is my work in the first half of this year."

"Huaxia men's basketball team? I didn't pay attention to it. " Betty shook her head.

"Hey, Betty." Xiao Yao some dissatisfaction way, "although the U.S. men's basketball team is worthy of the basketball overlord, but you should not so despise the teams of other countries.""Is it?" Betty looked at Xiao Yao with a smile and said, "so will you pay attention to the American table tennis team?"

"Well, I'm speechless." This words say, still really let Xiao Yao some language barrier.

Just at this time, Keith opened his mouth to resolve Xiao Yao's embarrassment, "Yang, I guess you are a basketball fan. Are you interested in watching a basketball match on site?"

"Of course." Xiao Yao nodded, "very much looking forward to the scene to see a career basketball."
