As soon as He Chen's mother entered his room and closed the door, she asked impatiently, "Chenchen, did you see Xiaoyi at the banquet?"
He Chen's expression remained unchanged, as if he had already anticipated this question. He said in a gentle tone, "I saw it. She was with Madam Cheng. Madam Cheng accompanied her to the event."
Mother He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. It seems the Cheng family treats her well."
He Chen smiled and said, "Of course, after all, she is the only biological daughter of the Cheng family. Even if we are strict with her, it is for her own good. Mom doesn't need to worry too much."
Mrs. He sighed and sat down on the bed in his room: "It's not that I don't understand, it's just that I didn't see it with my own eyes, so I can't be completely at ease. Besides, your sister said..."
Ye Shuping and Cheng Yue both preferred He Jing and constantly compared her to He Jing. With her strong sense of self-esteem, she couldn't stand it.
He Chen thought for a moment and said, "Since Mom is so worried, why don't you let my older brother find an opportunity to take you to see it for yourself?"
Mother He's eyes widened, filled with great hesitation: "This...would your eldest brother agree?"
"I will help persuade my older brother."
If He's mother were to choose her favorite son from among all her sons at this moment, she would definitely choose He Chen. He Chen is just too, too, too gentle.
It seems that with him, I have a reason to do anything, and I have the courage to do anything. Everything is so natural.
After worrying about the banquet for hours and being unable to sleep, Mrs. He felt a sense of relief and comfort. She waved to He Chen and said contentedly, "Then Mom will go to sleep."
"Mmm, sweet dreams."
Mother He left He Chen's room with light and quick steps.
No sooner had she left than He Sui burst in, staring at the slowly closing door to his mother's room, and asked, "Sixth brother, what did Mom say to you?"
He Chen suppressed all his unusual emotions and asked in a gentle tone, "Was Fourth Brother kicked out by Sister He Jing?"
He Sui said "Oh," and then added, "She said she wants to take a shower."
"I didn't say much to my mom, I just told her about the banquet. Fourth brother, you have school tomorrow, why don't you go to sleep first?"
He Sui scratched the back of his head angrily and glared at him with dissatisfaction: "Why are you kicking me out too?"
"Fourth Brother, Sister He Jing will definitely come to you. She stood in the banquet hall for several hours today and is exhausted."
He Sui's eyes lit up: "Really?"
He Chen: "Mm."
He Sui completely forgot the purpose of his visit and went to sleep happily.
...
The next day, as soon as He Jing arrived at the classroom, she was surrounded by her classmates, all of whom were amazed by her skill at the banquet.
"Sister Jing, have you ever considered debuting? If you debut, you'll definitely become a huge star."
"Sister Jing, you can have both a Nobel Prize and a national idol status. It's a waste that you're not going to perform."
"That erhu playing was so amazing it made my scalp tingle. If this could go overseas, everyone abroad would be in awe."
"Why do we need overseas recognition for our national treasures? These are the gems of our great China; we should just conquer our own people."
"Traditional Chinese music is the most difficult!"
...
He Jing hasn't been this high-profile in a long time. The last time she was this high-profile was... what incident was it again?
She smiled faintly and said, "I'll show you my skills again when I have the chance."
The whole class erupted in a thunderous "Yay!", eagerly anticipating that "future".
However, that's not possible at the moment.
Because she needed to take leave to watch Hezhou's match.
