Chapter 36: Painting

In addition to those who expect Gu Qingge to demonstrate her talents and prove herself, there are of course also those who are not optimistic about her.

In other words, I am not optimistic about the combination of her and You Ruoyu.

After Xue Zhi was rejected by Gu Qingge, he complained privately, pointing the finger at You Ruoyu.

"Don't expect too much from Gu Qingge's performance. She will definitely be held back by You Ruoyu."

"Gu Qingge is good in every way except her judgment. She really shouldn't have worked with You Ruoyu."

"You Ruoyu is so good at pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy. She just tried to force herself on Gu Qingge. It's disgusting."

"Just wait, You Ruoyu will definitely make a fool of herself at the party, and then ruin Gu Qingge's first party performance!"

Xue Zhi spread words like these behind the scenes, which were clearly aimed at You Ruoyu.

As for Gu Qingge, he didn't want to target him too much after all. Besides, he knew that Gu Qingge's talent was unfathomable and he was very stable on the scene, so it was too easy for him to be slapped in the face.

Although he was timid in front of Gu Qingge, he attacked hard against the "fallen piano genius" You Ruoyu.

He obviously wanted to break You Ruoyu's mentality before the evening party, so that she would definitely perform poorly on the stage, and only then could he get rid of the hatred in his heart.

If Gu Qingge knew that boy hated You Ruoyu so much, she would definitely be envious.

You can direct all the hatred towards her, she doesn't mind at all, and may even be secretly happy about it.

However, You Ruoyu's psychological quality was not good to begin with. When Xue Zhi's remarks reached her ears, she felt very stressed.

If Gu Qingge didn't take small events like the cultural evening party seriously at all, then You Ruoyu was taking it more and more seriously.

This actually caused a problem, because the more You Ruoyu valued the stage, the more likely she was to "not hear" the piano at critical moments.

Gu Qingge has already made an appointment with You Ruoyu, and the two will go to rehearse every day after school.

The location is You Ruoyu's home, her piano room.

This was proposed by You Ruoyu himself.

When Gu Qingge saw where You Ruoyu lived, she realized that You Ruoyu was a rich girl.

The place where You Ruoyu lives is not a big villa, but a large flat of more than 300 square meters. It is located in a prime location in Handong City. This apartment is worth tens of millions and is definitely a luxury house.

When he walked into You Ruoyu's home, the low-key, luxurious and artistic decoration design made Gu Qingge further confirm this.

However, Gu Qingge was still very calm, because as long as she was given time, she would be able to buy such a luxury house sooner or later.

She has now earned hundreds of thousands of yuan in royalties just by writing the popular novel "Who Can Compete", and there will be a steady stream of royalties in the future.

After Gu Qingge arrived at You Ruoyu's piano room, he found that the equipment in the room was too luxurious. Not to mention the pure white grand piano in the center of the room that cost over one million yuan, the other musical instruments, speakers, and recording equipment also looked particularly high-end and classy.

What they have in common is that they are all very good-looking, and they all look like they were carefully selected and purchased by You Ruoyu.

You Ruoyu took Gu Qingge on a tour and introduced everything to her, knowing everything like the back of her hand.

Gu Qingge also saw the glass cabinet where You Ruoyu kept various certificates of honor and trophies. Inside were various first prizes and gold medals. One could imagine how glorious her past was.

You Ruoyu herself couldn't bear to stay in front of the cupboard any longer, her eyes were full of sadness.

"Okay, let's get started." Gu Qingge said.

You Ruoyu quickly adjusted herself. She said in a soft voice, "Gu Qingge, what song are you going to sing this time? A cover or one of your own?"

Gu Qingge seemed to notice that You Ruoyu was not in a very good mood and looked like she was worried about something, so she decided to cheer You Ruoyu up first.

"What kind of songs do you like to listen to? How about this, you can just choose any song and I will sing it for you, and you can accompany me on the piano."

Gu Qingge's words really piqued You Ruoyu's interest. She mentioned several popular songs on TikTok in this world, including some pure catchy songs like "Learn to Meow".

Gu Qingge didn't care. Anyway, her entry-level vocal skills now could increase her progress value no matter what she sang. As long as she kept singing, she would be able to break through to the mastery level.

After Gu Qingge started singing, You Ruoyu's piano accompaniment was perfect.

Sure enough, she can go all out off the stage and play anything with ease.

After Gu Qingge finished her song, You Ruoyu clapped excitedly. She praised, "It's beautiful, so beautiful! Gu Qingge, your voice is really perfect. My ears really enjoy it!"

Gu Qingge was a little surprised. She didn't expect that You Ruoyu's exaggerated praise was actually true.

Gu Qingge just felt that she liked You Ruoyu more and more. She liked this kind of sincere girl!

"You play the piano very well too, so when we are combined, we are absolutely invincible!" Gu Qingge also praised You Ruoyu.

You Ruoyu smiled, but still a little worried, "Of course I play well here, but on the stage, especially the stage that I care about so much, problems will arise while I'm playing."

Gu Qingge was a little bit unable to understand You Ruoyu's problem. She played so well, and the system rated her piano skills as expert-level. But she couldn't perform well on the stage. It was such a pity.

Next, Gu Qingge sang several songs for You Ruoyu, including her own "Little Love Song".

You Ruoyu felt more and more relaxed as she listened to the girl's light and pleasant singing.

To be fair, she felt that Gu Qingge's voice was indeed perfect, but her skills were still lacking. She could still be considered a rough jade. After some further polishing, Gu Qingge would surely shine in the music world.

As Gu Qingge was singing, she suddenly thought of a good idea. She said to You Ruoyu, "How about I write a song and sing it just for you at the evening party?"

You Ruoyu said happily: "Of course, I'm very honored."

“So when you play for me, you can completely forget that it’s a stage. You’re not playing for the audience, you’re playing for me alone.

I want you to only see me."

Gu Qingge came to You Ruoyu's side, leaned over and looked into her eyes.

You Ruoyu felt her cheeks getting a little hot. Why was Gu Qingge so seductive?

But she had to admit that the method proposed by Gu Qingge had its merits.

As long as she doesn't treat it as a stage, doesn't care about the audience at all, and only has Gu Qingge in her eyes, then she might be able to perform normally or even exceptionally!

"So when are you going to write it? Do you have any inspiration?" You Ruoyu asked softly.

As Gu Qingge began to play "Revelation", countless beautiful rhythms flashed by her ears. She gestured for You Ruoyu to stand up and sat down in front of the piano. She said calmly, "I'm feeling inspired. How about you record it for me?"

You Ruoyu was a little confused. Was this the inspiration?

Is this the world of creative genius?

You Ruoyu is good at playing various musical instruments and can compose music, but asking her to write her own songs would be difficult for her.

With the "Apocalypse" skill activated, Gu Qingge, who originally did not know how to play any musical instrument, naturally understood what she did not know before in order to successfully "create" the song she chose.

This is the power of the golden god-level skill "Apocalypse".

The song she chose is called "Painting"——

Love is like the blue sky

A blank space with you to accompany my imagination

White Horse suddenly, no longer abstract

The frog finally met Cinderella

Even if the road is still long

I have a hunch

I believe in this inspiration

I draw you as a flower

An unopened flower

And miss you bit by bit

Painted as rain falling

Whenever I'm not here

Please remember my love

…

You Ruoyu was shocked!

This Gu Qingge is such a genius, not only did he compose the music, he also wrote the lyrics!

Besides, she can actually play the piano... Come to think of it, it's normal for a composer to know some musical instruments.

When Gu Qingge played the piano and looked at her affectionately, singing the chorus "I painted you as a flower, a flower that has not yet bloomed..."

You Ruoyu felt that her ears were conquered and her heart felt numb.

This is a song for her.

At this moment, there was only her in her eyes.
