Nangong Yunran’s piano is indeed a good one. Nuannuan adjusted the tone before going on stage and found it quite easy to use.
"Thank you, Sister Nangong. I'm going to take the exam now."
Before going to the exam, Nuannuan went to find Nangong Yunran to thank him.
Looking at the girl's bright and pure smile, Nangong Yunran also smiled.
At this time, she was no longer so obsessed with being Teacher Qin's last disciple.
Although I still hope to be selected, what I want more is to play my favorite guqin well.
Little did she know that it was this accident that led to an improvement in Nangong Yunran's state of mind. During the exam, this improvement was also reflected in her piano music and was noticed by many teachers.
"Not bad, there are quite a few good seedlings this year."
"Teacher Qin, do you have any favorites?"
Everyone knew why Teacher Qin came here this time, so they were particularly concerned about whether there was anything that moved him.
"Both Gu Nuannuan and Nangong Yunran are good candidates. However, the former is more immature and smart, while Nangong Yunran's music is more profound. They each have their own merits. Compared with the former, I like Nangong Yunran more. I have also watched her exams before. This time, she has made a lot of progress compared to before. This child has a very strong character."
"I prefer Gu Nuannuan's piano. Her piano sound is clean and lively, and it's pleasant to listen to. Moreover, she has achieved such success at such a young age. I'm afraid her future is immeasurable."
"Have you noticed that these two people are using the same piano?"
"Really? I really didn't notice."
"Really? They really are using the same guqin. Are these two kids friends?"
For those who love the guqin, the guqin is like their other half, and they will not allow anyone to touch it unless they have a very close relationship with it.
Mr. Qin, who was being watched by everyone, finally took action.
Mr. Qin's real name is Qin Zerun. He is a zither lover and has a profound understanding of the guqin. The sound of his guqin can even resonate with people and stir their emotions.
Even people who don't understand music will be shocked when listening to it.
He holds a very high status in the guqin circle and is a respected senior.
Many people tried their best to get their children to be his apprentices. But Qin Zerun's requirements for his apprentices and his temper were a bit strange.
The disciples he wanted to accept must have both good character and talent.
As for character, he declared that he did not want to recruit an ungrateful person who did not respect his teacher. As for talent, he said very straightforwardly that he did not have the patience to teach a stupid person.
This may sound offensive, but there are still many people who want to take their children to try it out.
Maybe you'll be noticed?
Unfortunately, up to now, Qin Zerun has only accepted three apprentices, all of whom have become top music masters in the industry.
Apart from anything else, Qin Zerun's vision in judging people is really impeccable.
So when the news came out that Qin Zerun would be the referee for the children's level assessment, basically everyone in the circle who knew the news came.
Qin Zerun is an old man with gray hair on the temples but he looks energetic. He is wearing a white training suit and stroking his beard.
"Those two kids are really nice."
The people around immediately listened attentively.
"The younger one is transparent and the older one is tough. You can tell their personalities just from the sound of their pianos. I originally planned to accept only one of them as my last disciple if I met one I liked. If I didn't meet one, I would just forget about it. However, this assessment gave me a pleasant surprise."
"Then Mr. Qin, you..."
"Let me try to see which one of them has better talent. I don't want a dumb one. It's hard to teach an old man who is too dumb!"
After Nuannuan and Nangong Yunran finished their assessments, they were notified by the staff to stay for the time being.
Neither of them was stupid, and they laughed at the thought of that possible acquaintance.
Nuannuan smiled with her eyebrows curved, revealing her neat and white teeth, looking particularly sweet.
Nangong Yunran, who usually doesn't like to smile, couldn't help but smile when she saw her big smile.
This smile was even more beautiful, and Nuannuan exclaimed.
"Sister Nangong, you look so beautiful when you smile, like a great beauty from ancient times. Please smile more."
Nangong Yunran felt a little embarrassed——"You are cute too."
"Hehe... that's what my family says to me."
The little girl is really not humble at all.
The two were chatting in the lounge, and Nuannuan was still feeling sorry for her guqin.
"It's so bad! How could you break the strings of my Xiaohong? I hope I can find someone to fix it."
Nangong Yunran——"Xiao, Xiaohong?"
What a childish name.
Nuannuan pursed her lips and smiled, but the smile only lasted for a few seconds before it collapsed. With her drooping eyelids, she looked particularly pitiful.
"This is the nickname I gave to Red Iris. Calling her Xiaohong feels more intimate."
Nuannuan usually takes good care of her guqin after playing it, and is always careful when transporting it, but she never thought that someone would maliciously damage the guqin.
This was indeed the most vicious people she had ever seen.
She was upset when she saw that the strings of the Red Iris were broken, but she was relieved when her fourth brother told her that he would find a master to fix it for her.
Nangong Yunran - "My mother knows a master who can repair the guqin. Maybe she can introduce him to you."
"What a bummer!"
Nuannuan's eyes lit up instantly, and she hugged Nangong Yunran's arm and thanked him softly, as if she was acting coquettishly.
"Thank you, Sister Nangong——"
Nangong Yunran had never been hugged and acted so coquettishly by someone before, and a blush immediately appeared on her pretty face.
"You're welcome. I'm also responsible for the damage to your little... red ibis."
Nuan Nuan pouted unhappily immediately - "What does this have to do with Sister Nangong? You are also a victim. It's all that bad guy's fault!"
Nangong Yunran's eyebrows were filled with smiles——"Well, it's indeed all her fault."
What the two girls didn't know was that their conversation in the house was heard by the old man standing outside the door.
