Chu Tiance then remembered that Lan Zihuan played the piano when he got engaged last time. Before that, he hadn't heard her play the piano for several years.
When he was ten years old, he leaned against the window in the piano room, watching her playing the piano seriously. The sunlight shone through the white lace curtains onto her long hair and slender fingers. In his eyes, the whole world was gray, except for her, who was shining. At that time, he listened to her playing the piano every day and never got tired of it.
Lan Zihuan suddenly pressed a few piano keys hard, making a harsh sound, "No more playing! No more playing! I'm so annoyed!" Lan Zihuan was angry again.
"Xiao Han, brother said you have to play twenty times today, and you only played ten times." Chu Tiance reminded.
"Tian Ce, I want to go out and play, I don't want to play the piano anymore." Lan Zihan got down from the chair, "If brother asks you, just say I've played enough, isn't that enough?" Lan Zihan blinked.
"Okay, let's go, I'll take you out to play!" Chu Tiance took Lan Zihan's hand and sneaked out of the piano room.
But their trick was exposed by Lie Yan at a glance.
"Who came up with this idea?" Lie Yan asked.
"It's him!" Lan Zihan pointed at Chu Tiance without hesitation.
"Brother, it was me who insisted on taking Xiaohan out to play. It was too boring for me to play alone." Chu Tiance explained quickly, "It was also my idea to lie and say I had enough bullets."
Lieyan knew that this idea was from Lan Zihan, because she always loved to be lazy and always liked to bully Chu Tiance. That day, Lieyan slapped Lan Zihan's palm. Lan Zihan, who was beaten, took her anger out on Chu Tiance.
"It's all your fault. You can't even lie, but brother found out and caused me to get beaten!" Lan Zihan just ignored Chu Tiance. Chu Tiance was anxious, "Xiaohan, Xiaohan, does your hand hurt? Let me see, okay? I didn't mean it, or you can hit me." Chu Tiance spread out his palm.
Lan Zihan hit Chu Tiance's hand many times, but Chu Tiance didn't feel any pain at all. As long as she could take care of him, talk to him, and play with him, he was willing to do anything.
Thinking of his childhood, Chu Tiance couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. He was really childish back then. Suddenly, the music stopped, and Lan Zihan's footsteps were heard in the room. Chu Tiance stepped back a little, and then pretended to walk forward. Lan Zihan opened the door and happened to see Chu Tiance coming.
They passed by each other without paying attention to each other. Just after passing each other, Chu Tiance stopped and said, "Stop."
Lan Zihan stopped and turned around. "Is there anything wrong, boss?"
The word "boss" sounded a bit harsh to Chu Tiance. "Don't you know how to say hello to the boss when you see him?"
Lan Zihan snorted. "Say hello? I'm giving you face by not hitting you." Lan Zihan clenched her fists, as if she was going to hit someone.
"Prepare well for the concert and don't embarrass the company. I don't want my artists to have trouble selling concert tickets when I just take office." Chu Tiance said coldly.
Lan Zihan hugged her shoulders, tilted her head, and stiffened her neck. "Don't worry, if the tickets don't sell, I'll eat them all!"
"Eat? Then wouldn't I let the company bear the shame of the artist going crazy and eating the tickets?" Chu Tiance's eyes were still indifferent.
"What do you want to say? If you want to say that the tickets can't sell, let me accompany you a few more times, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush."
​​"Humph, do you think you are worth a lot?" After saying that, Chu Tiance walked straight forward.
Lan Zihan looked at Chu Tiance's back as he left, clenched her fists, and her veins popped. This man not only slept with her, but also insulted her. No, she must not let him go.
She rushed forward and kicked Chu Tiance hard on the butt, "Go to hell! Chu Tiance, you big bastard!"
Chu Tiance stumbled forward, and when he came to his senses, Lan Zihan had already fled. Chu Tiance went into the bathroom, turned his back to the mirror, and looked at his butt. There was an obvious footprint on it. This stinky girl still couldn't change the habit of hitting and kicking.
Somehow, a smile appeared on his face. Being bullied by her for eighteen years has become a habit.
Lan Zihan locked herself in the rehearsal room almost every day, fiddling with the instruments. I don't know if it was because she hadn't practiced for a long time, or because of too much pressure and impatience, she always couldn't practice well. After practicing for a while, she was ready to throw things.
"Ah——" Lan Zihan roared, causing Xiao Keke to cover her ears in a hurry.
"Xiao Han, if you can't do it, just take a break. If you don't practice well and break things again, you won't be forgiven." Xiao Keke reminded carefully and warmly.
"Rest? We only have," Lan Zihan looked at the date on her phone, "Twenty-five days already, Keke, twenty-five days, and I have to play a dozen songs to mastery, and also practice dancing. I feel like dying now."
Xiao Keke stood up from the chair and walked to Lan Zihan's side, "Who supervised you practicing the piano in the past? Your teacher?"
Lan Zihan shook her head, "My brother, it's him who forced me to learn these things, otherwise how would I learn these crap! You don't know, every time I played badly, my brother would slap my palms, now that I think about it, I can feel the feeling of my swollen palms."
"Stretch out your hands." Xiao Keke said suddenly.
"What?" Lan Zihan didn't know what Xiao Keke was going to do, but she still spread out her palms obediently. Xiao Keke slapped Lan Zihan's palms with all his strength. In the crisp sound, both of them screamed, "Are you really hitting me?"
"I just want you to find the feeling." Xiao Keke blew on her hand that was hurt by the slap. "Practice here by yourself. I won't disturb you. Artists like you need a quiet environment. I'm leaving."
"Okay then." Lan Zihan watched Xiao Keke leave.
But she still couldn't find the feeling. When she couldn't play the piano well, she picked up the guitar. When she couldn't play the guitar well, she started to play the guzheng. When she couldn't play the guzheng well, she picked up the ukelele. In the end, she couldn't get anything done. Accidentally bumping into her schoolbag, a box of pencils spilled out.
Lan Zihan picked it up and realized that it was a birthday present that Lie Yan had sent to her in advance on her 24th birthday because he couldn't make it back. It was a Secret Garden. To be honest, Lan Zihan was not really interested in such things and had never even opened it. If she hadn't accidentally taken out the pencils today, she would not have taken out the book.
Thank you anywolf for the reward, your support is my strength, I will keep working hard to update. In addition, why can't Zihan and Tiance be together? Has anyone guessed it?
