Backstage lounge---
Jian Yu practiced with Xu Zi'an's band two or three times, and they were almost in sync.
Xu Zian stared blankly at Jian Yu, somewhat surprised.
I thought that because tonight's time was short, we wouldn't be able to get along well.
It will damage her confidence.
There will definitely be some mistakes during the performance later.
Although he had made arrangements in advance and it wouldn't affect the performance results, Jian Yu didn't know that and would definitely blame herself.
After it's over, he can then naturally go over and comfort her.
Maybe we can even spend the night together.
Surprisingly, she actually followed.
No wonder my sister felt threatened. Xu Zian rubbed his cheeks. It seemed that this person's talent was indeed higher than his sister's.
Professor Lin nudged Professor Cao on the shoulder and laughed, "I already said there's no problem, why are you still so nervous?"
Professor Cao said, "How can I not be nervous? Jian Yu is the only newcomer in the entire band. If anything goes wrong, the responsibility will definitely fall on Jian Yu."
A hint of unease flashed across Professor Lin's face, but Professor Cao didn't notice.
When Jian Yu went on stage, Professor Cao pulled her aside and said, "Although the time was short, you two coordinated well. Just play normally and don't be nervous."
Before Jian Yu could speak, Xu Zi'an said, "Don't worry! Jian Yu's skill level is so high, there's definitely no problem."
After speaking, he looked at Jian Yu with an appreciative gaze.
After Jian Yu looked over, he gave a handsome smile.
Jian Yu glanced at it and then looked away.
Xu Zian narrowed his eyes slightly. Shouldn't she return his expression with a grateful look?
Jian Yu was already sitting at the piano. Xu Zi'an didn't have time to think much and strode over to the drum set to get ready.
Professor Cao only breathed a sigh of relief after the performance was successfully completed.
After stepping down, Jian Yu took George's arm and prepared to leave.
Xu Zian quickly stopped him, "Jian Yu, we still need to meet with the director later, why don't you come along too!"
Jian Yu didn't even turn his head. "I'm not going."
Xu Zian was taken aback. "Why?"
Meeting the director is something many people dream of.
Jian Yu has the Huo family as a backer, but that doesn't mean others don't have backers.
Even if the director is unhappy, he can still get rid of her.
Jian Yu must understand this.
"This is our only collaboration."
Whether this was a coincidence or intentional, it doesn't matter.
Jian Yu has no intention of continuing the cooperation; she dislikes the feeling of being led by the nose by others.
Xu Zian's face stiffened. He had provided her with connections, and she didn't appreciate it?
"Many of the TV station's galas are directed by this chief director. Even if you don't work with me, you'll still be performing on stage in the future, right? It's always good to get to know each other."
Jian Yu continued walking forward.
Xu Zian's face darkened.
In the past, when women heard that they could meet a famous director, they would all beg and urge him to do it.
Jian Yu is so ungrateful.
Professor Lin's expression was also unnatural, but she didn't say anything.
Professor Cao greeted his friend and then chased after him.
She knew exactly what was making Jian Yu angry.
Because she was also very angry.
But since the other person was her friend, she couldn't say much.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was a collaborative performance."
"It doesn't matter."
Professor Cao meant well, and Jian Yu knew that.
"Next time, I will definitely ask clearly before agreeing."
"Okay." Jian Yu added after saying that, "From now on, we'll decline all of Professor Lin's offers."
Professor Cao was puzzled.
Jian Yu had no choice but to tell the truth, "I have a grudge against Xu Zi'an's sister. She tried to hurt my hand while I was blind, but she ended up breaking her own hand by mistake."
Xu Zian was Professor Lin's student, and Jian Yu didn't want to have too much contact with him.
Professor Cao then realized something was wrong. Normally, if you want someone to be the pianist in a band, you should tell them in advance, just in case they don't agree.
What does it mean that someone who isn't famous can't perform on stage?
Although the TV station has strict requirements, there were still many ordinary people in previous years, weren't there?
Was Xu Zi'an deliberately keeping quiet because he was afraid Jian Yu would refuse?
Did her friend also keep it from her?
Television programs are also rehearsed several times in advance.
Old Lin said there was no need for a rehearsal, but she mistakenly thought it was because Jian Yu's solo performance was so good that it didn't need to be.
The result was a band performance.
What if the simplified and polysemous elements don't blend well, and the student throws a tantrum and refuses to go on stage? Wouldn't that offend the TV station?
As the matchmaker, she will inevitably be implicated to some extent.
Does Lao Lin know this?
Professor Cao was not entirely comfortable with the situation, but he was glad that Jian Yu had little performance experience and was unaware of the intricacies of the pre-rehearsals.
"Shall we continue with class tomorrow?"
Professor Cao was getting a little anxious because there hadn't been any classes for several days.
"In the morning!"
"OK."
George was a step behind the other two, sending a message to Li Bo.
He briefly recounted how Jian Yu was tricked into taking the stage.
Uncle Li never expected this to happen; he had thought Professor Cao was reliable!
Hearing that Jian Yu had not added Xu Zi'an's contact information and had declined Professor Lin's future recommendations, Uncle Li nodded, saying that Jian Yu understood.
The other party has very ill intentions.
When Professor Cao arrived in the morning, Jian Yu was still in bed.
Professor Cao left at 11 o'clock.
Jian Yu practiced piano at home all day that day.
Before going to bed that night, he took the initiative to ask Mu Nannan to go out and play.
Lu Wei has something to do tomorrow, and Mu Nannan is worried about where to go by herself.
Upon receiving Jian Yu's invitation, he agreed without hesitation.
After having breakfast, Jian Yu grabbed his car keys and prepared to leave.
George blocked the doorway, insisting on coming along as the driver.
Jian Yu: "Don't you have anything else to say?"
Aren't you busy with work at the Huo family's place?
George shook his head.
"..." Jian Yu, "Okay!"
"Ding-dong---"
Mu Nannan messaged Jian Yu, asking if he had set off yet.
Jian Yu quickly replied, "[We're setting off.]"
He handed the car keys to George. "Let's go!"
George's face immediately lit up with a smile.
Jian Yu felt a pang of emotion, thinking how fortunate those who worked for the Huo family were.
Jian Yu picked up Mu Nannan at the Mu family's door. Since it was still early, her uncle and aunt had not yet left the house.
Their eyes lit up when they saw the black Cayenne.
Upon learning that Jian Yu had come to pick up Mu Nannan to go out and play, Aunt Mu felt a pang of jealousy and immediately waved for the nanny to pull Mu Mingming up.
Aunt Mu gave what she thought was a kind smile. "Nan Nan, really, let someone in to rest for a while and have a cup of tea."
Mu Nannan didn't want Jian Yu to go in and hear them subtly belittling her, so she said, "No."
Aunt Mu's face darkened. "You really don't know any better. How can you not let guests in? Is this how I've always taught you?"
When facing Jian Yu, he put on a kind smile again, "Your name is Jian Yu, right? You're very handsome. Get out of the car and come in for a seat."
Jian Yu said, "No need. It's getting late, I'll take Nan Nan out first."
Jian Yu waved to Mu Nannan and rolled up the car window.
Mu Nannan ran to the other side, opened the door, and got into the car.
Aunt Mu stepped forward and pressed down on the car window. "Wait a minute, Mingming is coming down now. You're all girls, about the same age, perfect for playing together."
Mu Nannan's face turned pale instantly. Jian Yu was clearly her friend, so why were they trying to take him away?
I don't want my friends to be taken away from me again.
Mu Nannan refused directly, "Jian Yu and Mingming are not familiar with each other, it would be inconvenient to bring them along."
