On the day of the guqin level assessment, Nuannuan took a leave and her fourth brother went with her.
Of course, I also met teacher Su Ran when I arrived at the examination room.
Su Ran was wearing ancient costume, and he exuded the scholarly and gentle aura of a young man from an aristocratic family. Countless pairs of eyes passing by couldn't help but look over at him.
"teacher!"
Su Ran has graduated from university. He is now in charge of the family business and seems to be much calmer and more reserved.
Like a precious sword hidden in its scabbard.
When Su Ran saw Nuan Nuan, a smile appeared on his handsome face, and he waved in his direction.
"Teacher, have you been waiting here for a long time?"
Nuannuan ran over and looked up at him with her delicate little face.
Su Ran rubbed her head——"It won't be long, let's go in."
Nuannuan had taken the test several times before, so she wasn't too nervous now.
But others were not as relaxed as she was. The reason was simple: the famous Guqin master Qin Lao also came to watch the competition. It was said that he was interested in taking in a closed disciple.
When Su Ran came, he also told Nuan Nuan about this matter.
"Teacher Qin's guqin skills are very high. Many people who learn guqin want to be his disciples. Nuannuan, just play your usual self. There is no need to deliberately please anyone. Music can express a person's state of mind. Being too eager for quick success or too deliberate will not be beautiful."
Nuan Nuan listened carefully and nodded - "Yes, teacher, I remember it. It doesn't matter if I am not selected by Teacher Qin. It means that Teacher Qin and I are not destined to be together."
She is very open-minded. Guqin is her hobby. If she can learn from such a famous teacher, it is her luck. She will also work hard to learn. If not, it means that they are not destined to be together, and she will not force it.
I have a bit of an idle fish mentality, but this mentality is still very good in music. Musical instruments can show a person's state of mind, which ordinary people may not be able to hear. But those who like music can feel it.
Keep a pure and clean state of mind, and the music will be more lively and pure.
Nuannuan took her clothes to the backstage to prepare. The clothes were an ancient Confucian dress. The light green color made her look like a lotus emerging from the water, so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her.
As soon as she opened the door and walked out, she bumped into someone. The other person was walking too fast and brushed against her arm, causing Nuannuan to stagger before she could stand firm.
Her shoulder was a little painful, so Nuannuan frowned and looked over, and the girl also looked over.
She is much taller than Nuannuan and probably in high school.
She also turned around to look at Nuannuan, and when she saw who it was, a flash of fear appeared in her eyes, and she clenched her fists in an instant.
What I was worried about finally happened, and Gu Nuannuan also came for this assessment!
Nangong Yunran's pretty and arrogant face turned ugly for a moment. She knew this person. She was also present when the ancient zither level assessment was held.
Gu Nuannuan is young and pretty, so it's easy for people to remember her name.
But what is more memorable is her talent in playing the guqin.
At such a young age, she has already passed the first four levels of the exams, and her lively piano playing makes the instructors like her very much.
Nangong Yunran, a young lady from a musical family, has been practicing the guqin since she was a child. She has always thought that no one can compare to her and has always been proud and looked down upon other people's playing of the guqin.
But when she met this person named Gu Nuannuan, she felt what a threat was. The talents that she used to be proud of seemed to be worthless in front of this little girl.
Nuannuan's existence also brought the first setback to her smooth guqin career, shattering her previous pride and complacency.
She was depressed for a while after returning home, but soon cheered up again with the comfort of her parents.
"Feel sorry."
Nangong Yunran tried hard to adjust her mood. No matter what, she would compete first. She didn’t believe that she was much worse than this little girl!
Nuan Nuan rubbed her shoulders and shook her head - "It's okay."
When she was about to leave, Nangong Yunran called her again, but the girl still maintained her pride as the eldest daughter of a musical family.
"I know you, Gu Nuannuan. You are very powerful."
Nuannuan blinked and looked up at her, a smile on her flesh-pink lips and a soft and sweet voice.
"I know you too, Sister Nangong, you are also very powerful."
Nangong Yunran breathed a sigh of relief - "I will do my best in this assessment."
After saying that, she left in a hurry. Nuannuan looked at her back and scratched her face in confusion.
She could feel that this sister really loved the guqin. She had given her all in every previous assessment, showing her passion for music.
Nuannuan smiled with her eyes curved.
On the eve of the assessment, a good friend of Nangong Yunran came to her. She was also a contestant to be assessed this time.
"Yun Ran, you are so amazing. Teacher Qin will definitely choose you as his last disciple this time."
The girl's voice was sweet, but where Nangong Yunran couldn't see, her eyes flashed with deep jealousy.
Nangong Yunran frowned and interrupted her when she heard this - "Don't talk nonsense, it's Mr. Qin's business who he chooses."
"What are you saying? Among all of us, except for that girl called Gu Nuannuan, who else can compete with you? But Gu Nuannuan is also here for this assessment. I just don't know if you two..."
She bit her lip, looking angry for her best friend.
"Yun Ran, this test is very important to you. What if Teacher Qin chooses Gu Nuan Nuan? If everyone knows that you are not as good as a child, who knows how they will look at you."
Nangong Yunran bit her lip—"Why should I care what they do?!"
Does Nangong Yunran have to consider other people's faces?
