Chapter 902: Encountering Liang Zixuan
His tone was relaxed and encouraging, which made Zhen Yan feel a little warm.
Zhen Yan looked at Shen Muchen gratefully and nodded: "Thank you, Emperor Shen. I will work hard."
Then, Teacher Li taught Zhen Yan step by step how to place her fingers on the strings.
“Remember, your fingers should rest lightly on the strings; don’t press too hard. Feel that subtle touch and allow a tacit understanding to develop between your fingers and the strings.”
He demonstrated as he spoke, and Zhen Yan imitated carefully.
"I seem to feel it..." Zhen Yan suddenly said excitedly. She tried to pluck the strings gently. Although the notes were still a little stiff, her eyes were shining with an unprecedented light.
"Very good, you've taken the first step." Teacher Li nodded with satisfaction, giving her the utmost affirmation and encouragement. "Remember, music requires time and patience to hone. As long as you persevere, you will be able to play moving melodies."
Shen Muchen also applauded and encouraged: "Zhen Yan, you are awesome! I believe you will soon master the playing skills of the guzheng. I look forward to hearing your solo one day."
Amidst Shen Muchen's applause and encouragement, a warm current surged in Zhen Yan's heart. She looked at Shen Muchen, her eyes flashing with gratitude and determination: "Emperor Shen, thank you for your encouragement today. Because of you, I feel more confident in overcoming every difficulty in learning the guzheng."
There was a sincere emotion in Zhen Yan’s words, which softened Shen Muchen’s eyes.
"You're welcome. Seeing how hard you work and how talented you are, I'm just doing what I should do as a friend." He responded with a smile, his tone full of humility.
"No, Mr. Shen, your encouragement means a lot to me." Zhen Yan insisted, "Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to dinner and discuss the script."
Seeing this, Shen Muchen no longer refused, "Okay, then I'd rather obey than be respectful. I know a private restaurant that cooks good dishes, and it's more private and won't be photographed by paparazzi."
If their identities were photographed by paparazzi, they would probably become a hot topic.
Zhen Yan nodded, "Of course, Mr. Shen, please send me the name of the restaurant later and I will go there directly tonight."
"good."
The evening glow cast a soft golden coat over the city. Zhen Yan and Shen Muchen walked into the private restaurant. Their laughter and conversation sounded particularly harmonious amidst the melodious guzheng music in the restaurant.
However, this tranquility was soon broken by an uninvited guest - Liang Zixuan, who unexpectedly appeared at the door of the restaurant and his eyes instantly locked on Zhen Yan and Shen Muchen who were talking and laughing.
Liang Zixuan's face darkened slightly. He walked forward quickly, trying to hide his displeasure, but his voice still carried a subtle hint of jealousy: "Yanyan, Mr. Shen, what a coincidence. Since we've met, why don't we have a meal together?"
Zhen Yan was slightly taken aback, then politely responded, "Hello, Mr. Liang. Mr. Shen has already reserved a table, but if you don't mind, we can share a table."
Shen Muchen also nodded in agreement. Although he was a little surprised by Liang Zixuan’s sudden joining, he did not show too much emotion out of politeness and professionalism.
However, the atmosphere of the dinner became a little subtle because of Liang Zixuan's joining.
"Yanyan, what are you busy with recently?" Liang Zixuan's words were intimate, but it was not difficult to detect a subtle provocation in them.
