[Oh right, I remember now! Holy crap! The handsome guy's name is Shi Qian, right? All our judges back then had to call him Teacher Shi!]
What's going on? Please explain in detail.
[When is the teacher?]
[Shi Qian is a member of the Beijing Musicians Association! A top-level member! Rumor has it he's also Chairman Yan's student!]
[President Yan has only taken on two apprentices so far! You can look up the first one yourself; he was incredibly talented, but sadly died young. The second one is Shi Qian!]
[God! Bye! Please bless me so I can pass the music association exam!]
Holy crap! Is this for real?!
Wait, what's going on upstairs?! Can anyone who knows the answer explain this?!
[Shi Qian's playing definitely sounds better than that yo-yo thing!]
The two are clearly not on the same level.
As the popularity of the live stream continued to rise, it quickly attracted people from the music association.
[I can testify that Professor Shi is a member of our Music Association!]
Go search for this year's national music competition yourselves, there's a surprise!
[You can see for yourselves who got first place; the composer for second place, Fire, is Teacher Shi.]
...
With the internet so extensive, Shi Qian's competition photos were quickly found, and it turned out to be the same person.
Shi Qian was still focused on playing the instrument, unaware that her identity as a member of the Music Association had been exposed by the viewers in the live stream.
The audience couldn't help but feel sorry for An Youyou; her skill level was incomparable, Shi Qian could even be her teacher.
A screen full of "self-inflicted humiliation" scrolled by.
An Youyou was stunned after listening to Shi Qian's performance. She hadn't expected Shi Qian to play the piano so well.
This level is in no way inferior to hers, no, it's even more than a level above hers.
Yan Ge also saw the flood of messages in the live stream and caught the key information—Yan Zhengming's apprentice.
Shi Qian is Grandpa's student? How come he didn't know? Why didn't Grandpa tell him?
He and Shi Qian are both math majors. More people means more companionship. Shi Qian is so amazing, why didn't Grandpa introduce him to him sooner?
Yan Ge immediately went back to his room and called Yan Zhengming.
"Grandpa, do you know Shi Qian?"
Yan Zhengming had barely returned to the Music Association and hadn't even settled in when he received a call from his grandson, who immediately asked about his students.
"Yes, we know each other. What's wrong?"
Yan Ge was so angry he jumped up and down, "Grandpa! Don't you know Shi Qian is also a math major? I'm a math major too, why don't you introduce us!"
Yan Zhengming felt baffled. Who had previously claimed that he was a targeted customer for health products and pyramid schemes? Who had said that he had been misled and that someone had approached him using his name?
"Didn't I already call you? I told you to add other people's contact information and get in touch more, but you were so dismissive back then!"
"You brat, you said you didn't have time to take care of people and told them not to try to get close to you. What? Now you realize how good other people are?"
Yan Ge once again captured crucial information; had Yan Zhengming introduced it to him?
He immediately recalled the phone call he received at the beginning of the semester; the caller was from Yancheng and majored in mathematics.
"Grandpa, I have something to do, I'll hang up now."
Before Yan Zhengming could say anything more, Yan Ge hung up the phone and started scrolling through their chat history.
Sure enough, I found a push notification card among hundreds of voice messages.
Damn, it really is Shi Qian.
It turns out they knew each other back when school started. If I had just glanced at the chat history back then, I would have realized that Shi Qian was Wind long ago, instead of waiting until now.
Yan Ge was stunned; this was worse than being killed.
I missed the chance to get to know him sooner.
After Shi Qian finished playing, he stood up, looked at An Youyou, and asked, "Is that enough?"
An Youyou bit her lip, deeply regretting inviting Shi Qian to compete with her, as she had once again lost the limelight.
She commented with a hint of jealousy, "It's just so-so."
The live stream chat instantly became lively.
[Hilarious! You're so-so. They're way above you.]
[I checked, and it turns out that there's no way to get promoted from the top-tier members internally; they're all specially recruited geniuses. The entire music association has never had more than five people like that in all these years.]
I wonder what Chairman Yan thinks about people saying his apprentice's skill level is just so-so.
I wonder what the judges of the music competition think when they find out that their first-place pick was only mediocre.
[If I were this easygoing, I'd go and apologize profusely after the show. Shi Qian is a hot candidate for the next president of the Music Association.]
[They even wrote a review; my tendency to sympathize with people from other companies has kicked in again...]
[They're really picking at it; their toes are already helping others build illegal structures...]
...
An Youyou looked at Shi Qian, who was helping in the kitchen, her face filled with uncontrollable jealousy and hatred. She had gone to great lengths to ask her aunt to have the production team bring over a piano just to show off, but she never expected to benefit someone else.
This Shi Qian is actually quite skilled.
Breakfast was quickly prepared with everyone's help, as the production team had ample funds and everyone's meals were greatly improved.
With the arrival of Yan Ge and Fu Xiuhan, the conversations among the crowd, aside from focusing on Guan Ying, revolved around Yan Ge and Fu Xiuhan.
He Qingli felt ignored and was a little unhappy. He had specially worn a high-end custom-made outfit today, which he couldn't borrow due to his status, and had spent several million to buy.
But no one in the audience seemed to care, and He Qingli was a little disoriented.
Yan Ge steered the conversation toward Shi Qian, saying that Shi Qian was very talented and that the song that made him popular again back then was written by Shi Qian, and he was thinking of paving the way for Shi Qian.
