"She's just my fiancée. My master made an engagement with Bai Zizai decades ago. Although Miss Zhao is a good woman, it's hard to disobey the master's order." Qin Yi looked embarrassed.
He did not mention that Bai Qiong also invited him to the dance. After all, considering the huge loss suffered by the Zhao family, his private affairs with Bai Qiong were not worth mentioning at all.
"No wonder you've repeatedly lent a helping hand to the Bai family. I've long speculated about your relationship with Bai Qiong, and your engagement is also one of my conclusions."
"Although the engagement was made by our elders, you haven't gotten married yet. Besides, my daughter, Zhao Tiannan, is not bad. Of course, all this still depends on Zhixu's wishes."
Zhao Tiannan said slowly. He was not surprised by Qin Yi's answer.
Bai Qiong is a famous beauty in Linhai City, and her business ability is so strong that she is the object of admiration of many young talents. It is not impossible for her to attract the unknown master Qin Yi.
The more outstanding a person is, the higher his standards for others are, and Qin Yi is no exception.
What Zhao Tiannan means now is that Qin Yi and Bai Qiong have not yet gotten married, so Zhao Zhixu still has a chance.
"Okay, I agree to your conditions." Qin Yi thought for a moment, then nodded. It seemed that he could not be Bai Qiong's male partner at the dance.
Fortunately, he hasn't agreed to Bai Qiong yet.
As for the relationship with Zhao Zhixu, I will find a time to explain it to Bai Qiong when the time comes.
The conditions proposed by Zhao Tiannan were simply pie in the sky. He didn't have to pay anything, and he could get a wife for free. Only a fool would not agree.
"I will arrange for someone to contact Bai Qiong in the next two days to discuss cooperation. She can use this opportunity to regain control of the Ministry of Transportation and avoid facing such a pressing situation again."
Zhao Tiannan said slowly. With his eyes, it was not difficult to see that the Bai Group was now in disarray.
Bai Qiong had always wanted to replace the positions of those shareholders, but they were deeply entrenched in that position, and even if the positions no longer belonged to them, they could still influence that department.
Now that the Zhao family has taken the initiative to lend a helping hand, it is a very good opportunity for Bai Qiong.
…
Not long after, the Zhao family's lunch was ready. Qin Yi was not restrained and ate the delicious food with a great appetite.
As a wealthy family, the Zhao family specially hosted a banquet for Qin Yi. The lunch was very sumptuous, using top-quality ingredients such as caviar, king crab, etc., which were things Qin Yi could not eat in the mountains.
At the table, Zhao Zhixu picked up a piece of lily and put it in her mouth. She glanced at Qin Yi and said slowly, "Are you guys going to talk about music after dinner? I have some insights into music, so why not let me join in?"
Last time in the hospital, she didn't see Qin Yi's ability, so she couldn't forget it. She was very curious about how capable this person who was so respected by her father was.
"The elders are talking, why are you, a junior, butting in?" Qin Yi said with a smile.
He actually didn't really want Zhao Zhixu to sit in on the conversation. His purpose was to sell paintings, but if Zhao Zhixu joined in, it would become selling music.
How can a piece of music be as expensive as a painting? Basically, it ranges from a few thousand to tens of thousands!
Besides, the Zhao family runs a transportation company, not an entertainment company. If he really did it, it would probably be just for fun.
"Are you still planning on having me call you uncle? Don't you see how old you are? I reached level ten in piano when I was in elementary school. Now I'm a member of the Linhai Music Association. I should be qualified to judge the quality of your work." Zhao Zhixu showed no sign of weakness.
"Whether I'm great or not, you'll know after you try it. You're a member of the Music Association, and you sound very impressive. Unlike me, I don't even know what a rating is. Otherwise, you'd better not listen. I'm afraid of making a fool of myself." Qin Yi tried to refuse again.
"Is it big enough to try? How do I try?"
Zhao Zhixu's face showed a hint of confusion. Isn't age determined by date of birth? This was the first time she had heard Qin Yi say this.
“Ahem…”
Zhao Tiannan interrupted their conversation with a dark face. He glanced at Qin Yi with a reproachful look and said, "I asked you to capture my daughter's heart, but I didn't ask you to tease my little girl in front of me!"
He paused, then said, "Brother Qin is young and promising. His accomplishments in other areas are among the best in the country. How could he possibly make a fool of himself in music?"
"Zhi Xu, it would be a good idea for you to come to the study room later and observe Brother Qin's skills. Although you are a member of the Music Association, power outweighs talent in such places. There are many masters among the people who will not enter the society, and Brother Qin is definitely one of them!"
"It's true that you have the ability, but you must first be my daughter, Zhao Tiannan, and then you can be a member of the Music Society. Otherwise, you can only be a member at best."
Zhao Tiannan spoke in a calm tone, and Zhao Zhixu nodded slightly. Just like in the business circle, if you want to stand out anywhere, you have to pay attention to friendship and relationships.
She entered the association based on her own abilities, but as time went on, people in the association discovered that she was the daughter of the Zhao family, and the treatment she received followed suit. She didn't like this feeling.
Because in the eyes of outsiders, all her achievements are related to her family background.
"Father is right. I still have a lot to learn. Qin Yi, if you have any unique insights in this area, please give me some advice!"
Seeing this, Qin Yi had no choice but to reply: "Miss Zhao, what are you talking about? It's best for us to teach each other and learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses."
…
The Zhao family's study is located on the first floor of the Zhao family villa. There is not only one study room. Each of the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting has its own separate room. It is worth mentioning that the Zhao family's gym is also on this floor.
After dinner, the three of them came to the piano room on the first floor. Various musical instruments were placed in the piano room. The area of this room alone was more than 100 square meters. Among them, a grand piano was placed on the windowsill in the room, which was very conspicuous.
"Brother Qin, you can choose any instrument you are good at. My Zhao Group is planning to run an advertisement and is still short of a melody. If you happen to have an original melody, that would be great."
Zhao Tiannan came to the shelf where the musical instruments were stored and introduced them to Qin Yi.
"Let me start with a piece of plum blossom three-part."
Qin Yi picked up a flute from the shelf and started playing it immediately. The melodious and powerful flute sound spread to every corner of the villa.
The voice is sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low, and then becomes radical all the way!
Everyone in the Zhao family villa stopped what they were doing at this moment, and were attracted by the flute sound coming from the first floor of the villa.
It was as if at this moment they had all turned into plum blossoms, blooming alone in the snowy winter, unafraid of hardship.
After the flute music ended, no one could come back to their senses for a long time!
After a long moment, Zhao Zhixu said with a moved expression, "It's simply the sound of nature. I've never heard such beautiful flute music in my life."
"Your piece, Three Variations on the Plum Blossom, has undergone significant changes in some of the melodies, making it even more exquisite and captivating. I'd like to know who wrote these changes."
