"You don't know who I am?" Chi Kaifeng asked uncertainly.
No way, how could a freshman not recognize him? His photo is prominently displayed on the honor roll at the school gate. Besides, he clearly interacted with him on the first day of school, taking advantage of welcoming the new students.
With his charm, how could he not leave an indelible impression on her?
Chi Kaifeng's shock was written all over his face. Lin Zhenzhen frowned, wanting to ask him who gave him this confidence.
"Uh, okay. I probably forgot to introduce myself earlier, haha. My name is Chi Kaifeng, and I'm your senior in the third year of graduate school."
Upon hearing his words, Lin Zhenzhen's face fell immediately, and she turned and left.
It turns out this guy was the one who recommended the original owner to play the violin!
"Hey, hey, what's wrong, Ling Zhen, Ling Zhen!"
At this moment, outside the university town, Yu Jiamu is sitting in his car driving around in circles.
"Oh, Young Master Yu, let me tell you, I've inspected this area. It's really suitable for investing in galleries. It's surrounded by major art colleges. Art students, you know, are very artistic and they all like this kind of vibe."
"Artistic?" Yu Jiamu lazily took off his sunglasses and looked at the other person. "I remember you also studied music. How come I don't see any pursuit of art in you?"
The man immediately replied, "Because I later realized that the RMB is the greatest art in life."
Yu Jiamu laughed and told him to get lost.
"You're quite an interesting person. Okay, I'll invest in this project."
"Young Master Yu, you have such excellent taste! Don't worry, I won't let you down, and I will definitely repay you with money."
"It's okay, don't feel pressured." Yu Jiamu took out a slender cigarette from the cigarette case, raised an eyebrow at him, and asked, "Mind if I have a smoke?"
"No problem, no problem," the man said obsequiously, handing over a lighter.
Yu Jiamu, a cigarette dangling from his lips, lowered his head and brought it close to the flickering flame.
After slowly exhaling a smoke ring, he said leisurely, "It's okay if I lose money. Anyway, there are people in the Yu family who know how to make money. I just need to be a good spendthrift."
The man laughed it off. He had heard some rumors about the Yu family before, and this second young master Yu was once a prominent figure.
That year, he had just finished his MBA studies abroad. Within six months of returning to China, he landed several major cases, generating at least 50 million yuan in profit growth for the Yu Group.
But I don't know why he later became so despondent and turned into this spoiled, good-for-nothing playboy.
"By the way, Young Master Yu, since we're already here, why don't I take you to visit my alma mater?"
Yu Jiamu glanced at him sideways: "Your alma mater?"
"Yes, you must have heard of the Capital Conservatory of Music, right? It's at the end of this road. And with the new students enrolling recently, they'll be organizing a lot of activities, so there are bound to be lots of pretty girls there."
"Not really interested." Yu Jiamu rolled down the car window, and a blast of cold air rushed in, making his hair a mess.
Just then, his phone, which was in his pocket, vibrated. He took it out and saw that the screen was filled with Chen Xinji's wails.
"My dad's ex-wife's daughter has moved into my house?"
This guy's reaction is too slow! Before he could even send out his mocking message, Chen Xinji's next message came through.
"I heard she's studying at the same school as my sister! Oh my god, how am I supposed to live like this? I want to go back to England!"
Yu Jiamu's subordinates paused for a moment. "She went to the same school as Chen Tiantian?"
That is...
As Yu Jiamu watched the words "Capital Conservatory of Music" flash by outside the window, he inexplicably shouted, "Stop the car."
The interior of the school auditorium.
Teacher Liu Yeliang was counting the attendees from the roster.
"Ling Zhen?" No one answered in the huge auditorium.
He repeated, "Has Ling Zhen arrived yet?"
A girl walked out of the crowd with her hand raised.
He looked at the other person a couple more times, confirming that it was a new face: "Why haven't I seen you during the rehearsals before?"
The teacher next to her quickly explained, "She's here to take the place of the injured student." She then gave a detailed explanation of Lin Zhenzhen's situation.
“But we can’t make exceptions.” Liu Yeliang frowned. “I only care about the final performance. I don’t care about the superficial stuff. If her level isn’t up to par, I won’t let her go on stage.”
"But Zhang and the others have already made their decisions, and it's too late to change them now."
Liu Yeliang looked at the quiet and gentle girl in front of him and nodded reluctantly: "Let's do it once first and see the effect. If it's not good, we'll replace her immediately."
Lin Zhenzhen went backstage to wait under everyone's watchful eyes.
In previous years, the grand ensemble performances were all in the form of symphonies. This year's event planning aimed for innovation and included a musical miniature, where different types of instruments had their own performance time.
In other words, when playing bowed string instruments, there are fewer than ten people on the entire stage, so it is almost impossible to fill in the numbers.
That is precisely why Liu Yeliang's requirements are so strict.
When Yu Jiamu was brought here, the rehearsal on stage was in full swing. It was time for keyboard instruments to perform, and lively rhythms leaped from the keys.
Yu Jiamu stared at the person playing the piano on the stage, and suddenly Chen Xinji's words echoed in his mind.
That little mute girl seems to be learning piano as well. I wonder what she's like when she plays.
Seeing him staring intently at the stage, the man beside him immediately said, "Young Master Yu, you have a really sharp eye. Every year, those who get to appear on stage are handpicked from various colleges. Whether it's their professional skills or their appearance, they're all top-notch. If you're interested, I can ask a friend for their contact information?"
