Actually, so of Tuoba Jianhui’s views, from an absolutely rational perspective, Lin Tian felt they weren’t entirely unreasonable.
But what Lin Tian couldn’t stand the most was this guy always putting on the airs of a senior, spouting what he thought were wise words.
The matter of Lin Tian performing together with Gan Yanyu,
even Sir Gan hadn’t said a single word of objection, the old man himself had nothing to say!
What are you talking about "entrusting"?
You think you’re worthy of "entrusting"?
"....."
After all, he was almost seventy years old, being scolded by an 18-year-old boy like this.
Tuoba Jianhui’s face clearly couldn’t hide the embarrassnt.
He was leaning against the wall with one hand, the other resting on his forehead, coughing twice.
At the sa ti, looking at Lin Tian, his heart filled with a bit of sorrow.
"Then just take it as the ramblings of an old man."
"..."
The old man stroked the water cup in his hand, leaning against the wall,
"Once, I also ntored a child like that..."
"I know the kind of consequences that such performance, if not controlled well, can lead to, I’ve seen it with my own eyes."
"When I saw your performance, I was actually thinking that if I, in my thirties, had a pianist like you in my orchestra, perhaps that child would have had a different ending..."
More than anything, it was regret.
He had dedicated his entire life to the orchestra, nurturing countless perforrs.
The image of that young boy, after so many years, still lingered in his mind, impossible to chase away.
When Tuoba Jianhui saw online that the granddaughter of an old friend sowhat resembled the past, he took the initiative to "take on the responsibility", ca to Qingjiang, and beca the head judge of the Yingqin Cup.
The current ability to spread information isn’t what it was twenty years ago, and the influence of a cellist isn’t either.
Gan Yanyu’s kind of performance, one day in the future, will surely reach the whole world.
He must prevent... the recurrence of what happened back then, a genius musician must not be led to destruction again.
"I apologize for my previous rudeness, indeed I spoke too harshly—destroying that child’s music career and such, perhaps, there might be better ways..."
"But—"
Tuoba Jianhui got up to this point.
His tone suddenly beca serious,
"I still stand by my opinion, that child’s performance—one day will destroy herself!"
"That you could protect her in this performance, to a large extent, is because today’s ’D Major Canon’ suits both of you perfectly! There might not always be such fitting pieces next ti, can you keep protecting her to the end? I entrusted her completely to you, hoping, that you could find the answers to these issues. But, one day in the future, you might also be pulled in by such performances..."
"You needn’t concern yourself with that."
Lin Tian laughed, waved his hand,
"First of all, stop talking about ’entrusting’. Without you saying it, I would also be her ’partner’, always, forever by Yanyu’s side!"
"Even if it ans walking towards destruction together, I will be with Yanyu, we’ll both be destroyed together, which has nothing to do with you or anyone else!"
Having said that,
in front of Tuoba Jianhui’s face, which was now reddened with anger,
Lin Tian turned around to leave.
He hadn’t gone far when he seed to rember sothing.
Lin Tian turned his head back toward Tuoba Jianhui and smiled slightly,
"By the way, actually, the piece ’D Major Canon’—I wrote it."
"So, the chance that there ’might not be such a fitting piece next ti’, that might not even be an issue at all."
Having finished speaking,
this ti, Lin Tian opened the door to the resting room and walked inside.
Leaving behind a red-faced, yet sowhat stunned Tuoba Jianhui, standing there in a daze.
...
...
So, what was I just going outside to do.....
"Lin Tian, you took so long in the restroom."
Seeing Lin Tian, Gan Yanyu pursed her lips, issuing a slightly unhappy voice.
Using the restroom... Damn!
Lin Tian just rembered.
He had ant to go to the restroom!
Engrossed in scolding and being cool, after scolding old man Tuoba he went straight back to the resting room...
"Toilet queue."
Lin Tian had no choice but to explain.
Actually, he really wanted to say that the thing wrapped around his waist was a hassle to take off...
But considering that if Gan Yanyu showed no expression after hearing such flirty words, the one to feel embarrassed would definitely be himself, so he held back.
"You’ve t with Mr. Tuoba, haven’t you?"
Suddenly, Gan Yanyu said calmly.
"How did you know?"
"Just now, I wanted to find you... as soon as I pushed the door open, I saw you two... so I ca back."
Gan Yanyu said.
"What did you hear?"
Lin Tian suddenly felt a bit nervous.
"Um..."
Gan Yanyu tilted her head, thought for a mont, and then said,
"Sothing like, you plan to join Mr. Tuoba in destroying ..."
"No way, you have a printing press for a brain!"
Lin Tian was shocked, he couldn’t understand how anyone could misinterpret words like that, wondering if Gan Yanyu’s ntal illness had developed to the point of having auditory hallucinations...
"Just kidding."
Gan Yanyu covered her mouth and laughed.
She leaned close to Lin Tian’s ear and whispered,
"Actually, it was ’to always, forever be by Yanyu’s side—this line."
Lin Tian was stunned, lifting his head.
The girl looked at him, her eyes curving into a brilliant smile.
"Mr. Gan..."
"Ah? What did you say?"
Gan Yanyu pretended not to hear clearly, cupped her hand like a gaphone next to her ear.
She leaned in slightly,
"It sounded like soone outside was calling ’Yanyu’..."
"Or was it that the person who wants to be with ’Yanyu’ forever was ’Yanyu,’ but since I am ’Mr. Gan’ it doesn’t count?
"No, no..."
Lin Tian quickly denied.
He had to admit, Mr. Gan usually looked so compliant, but when she made her move, a few words are all she needed to completely disorient him.
Lin Tian sighed.
Then, looking into the girl’s eyes,
He said in a very serious tone:
"Yanyu, that phrase is true. I will always, forever be by your side. No matter where we go, I will be with you, keeping the music playing!"
" too."
Gan Yanyu looked at him, smiling brightly.
"..."
"Hey, hey, here it cos, the results for Group B are about to be announced!"
Just then, an anxious voice interrupted the two of them.
At this mont, everyone in the rest area stood up, including Yun Qiuxiu, who had been in the corner the whole ti, who quickly patted her butt and stood up.
On the large screen,
The judges returned to their seats.
The host was also standing on stage.
"After the tense competition between the four contestants just now, the results for Group B are now in..."
At this mont, not only the contestants in the rest area,
But also the audience began to get excited, many taking out their phones, ready to record this mont.
The judges on the panel seed quite relaxed, chatting with each other, as if the result was no longer a suspense...
"After careful consideration and fair judgnt by the panel of judges, finally, we are honored to announce that the winning contestant of the Yingqin Cup cello competition semi-finals for Group B is—"
"Gan Yanyu!"
Amidst the hearty applause of the standing audience, the host said,
"This contestant achieved a score of nine ’A ’ and three ’A’s, winning in a dominating fashion and becoming the winner in this group!"
"She will be here next month, at the sa venue, competing in the final round of the Yingqin Cup! Let’s look forward to her outstanding performance!"
