"..."
Lin Tian’s face suddenly beca solemn with respect.
You’re asking ?
If you’re asking , then of course it’s about loosening up on that special do-do aspect.
If not, then as a fallback...
Give her feet a massage.
Looking at Gan Yanyu wearing either a camisole dress or the blue and white school uniform every day.
Lin Tian has wanted to do this for a long ti.
Surely no one would not want to give a massage, right?
"....."
But, he definitely couldn’t bring himself to say such things.
Lin Tian was just joking.
Since they agreed to save the intimate stuff for after marriage, Lin Tian definitely wouldn’t consider anything too forward.
Seeing the sowhat nervous yet expectant look on Gan Yanyu’s face.
Lin Tian rembered what Gan Yanyu had just said about "appropriately hugging."
He narrowed his eyes.
This guy...
Saying we should "discuss serious matters," suggesting to change how we address each other... and before we know it, smoothly transitioning to this topic.
Could it be,
that this was all for the pot of vinegar, the wrapped dumplings...
Lin Tian couldn’t make a judgnt.
But since Gan Yanyu had given him the chance to make a suggestion, he certainly wouldn’t waste it.
If we can’t do or touch, there isn’t much else Lin Tian is interested in.
"So then..."
"Let give you a foot massage once a month."
Lin Tian said seriously.
"Eh?"
Gan Yanyu was a bit surprised.
"What’s wrong? Is it not okay?"
"It’s not that... It’s just, I didn’t expect you to suggest this....."
Gan Yanyu lowered her head and spoke softly,
"What’s so good about massaging my feet... I thought you would want to do sothing more excessive."
Gan Yanyu felt sowhat guilty.
She didn’t expect Lin Tian to adhere so firmly to their agreent, not even proposing so "excessive" act beyond giving her a foot massage.
He must know that my feet often get injured easily, so he purposely said that, just to take extra care of .
He’s so gentle.
By contrast, just now I was the one who suggested "hugging"...
Really was a bit oblivious to the bigger picture.
"..."
Should I just forget about the "hugging" thing and change it to sothing else?
No, that’s not allowed.
Gan Yanyu thought for a mont and finally whispered to Lin Tian,
"The foot massage you ntioned... doesn’t have to be once a month; any ti you’re willing is fine."
"Okay."
Lin Tian agreed.
"Then about the nicknas... Do you have any ideas on what I should call you..." Gan Yanyu continued.
"It actually doesn’t matter much, does it?"
Lin Tian wasn’t very particular.
Although earlier it was suggested that Lin Tian could call Gan Yanyu "Yanyu," most of the ti, he couldn’t bring himself to do it, always feeling it was odd.
"Mr. Gan" flows off the tongue well.
Especially during their daily training.
It has a certain seriousness akin to referring to one’s professional title at work.
"But if you always call ’teacher,’ wouldn’t that make sound old? I’m younger than you."
"Really?"
Lin Tian thought for a mont.
Since "teacher" makes Gan Yanyu feel old.
Then why not call her "classmate"?
Lin Tian rembered how Su Ran addressed Gan Yanyu,
and tentatively said,
"Little Gan classmate?"
Gan Yanyu’s expression suddenly froze.
"Little Gan classmate, how about that?"
"....."
Gan Yanyu’s gaze was dazed as she stiffly nodded.
Lin Tian was sowhat confused.
This reaction, does she like it or not?
Since she agreed, she must like it.
"Then I’ll call you... Mr. Lin."
Gan Yanyu said.
"Little Gan!"
"Mr. Lin!"
The two greeted each other.
Crap!
Why does this sound so much like a play!
Lin Tian was sweating a bit.
Let’s just leave this topic for now.
Lin Tian stood up.
"I’m going to cook!"
...
...
Afterward, the two had lunch.
Lin Tian briefly explained his and Gan Yanyu’s situation to He Zhichen.
Before long, he received a ssage from He Zhichen.
"....."
"[However, this is quite good, the two of you won’t be distracted.]"
"[Then, may I ask, for next month’s trip to Tokyo, should I arrange for you and Teacher Gan Yanyu to stay in the sa room?]"
"[Of course, if you’re shy about it, I can also set up a play-act where ’the hotel runs out of rooms’...]"
"[You’re really not listening, are you?]" Lin Tian comnted.
"[Alright, alright, I’ll stop.]"
"[By the way, Teacher Lin Tian, when you have ti, rember to check out the HX-board charts. They just refreshed for the new quarter last week, there’s a surprise.]"
"A surprise?"
Lin Tian was startled, then quickly exited the phone’s ho screen and entered HX-board’s official website.
He scrolled down to the "[Tian Chao Zone][TOP100]" section.
To his astonishnt,
the na "Moonlight and Cat" had already appeared in the top ten!
On the right, a big "[TOP7]"
The website’s announcent section.
At this mont, it was heavily promoting a piece of content.
"[’Rainy Day Wet’ breaks 200,000! Sets a new record for first-week sales of a classical music album!]"
"[Moonlight and Cat, are now factually the hottest classical musicians in Tian Chao!]"
Tian Chao, classical music, highest!
These three keywords greatly shocked Lin Tian.
They might not be the most impressive classical musicians in the country right now.
But in terms of popularity and album sales, they truly are number one nationwide!
Lin Tian imdiately shared the news with Gan Yanyu.
Gan Yanyu, who was eating, paused with her chopsticks mid-air, her face also showing a happy expression.
"[HX-board’s influence is quite significant, and the reason Xiao Bang invited you this ti is largely due to this chart.
Perhaps, as your fa gradually spreads overseas, there are already many musicians in the international music scene who want to et you, the ’genius musician,’ in person this ti.
Teacher Lin Tian, my suggestion is to strike while the iron is hot, release the next album, and completely secure the top spot in the Tian Chao area, then expand your popularity overseas!]"
"[Even, it might be possible....]"
He Zhichen stopped midsentence.
"[Possible what?]" Lin Tian asked.
"[It might be possible to break out of the classical music album genre and go head to head with pop music!]"
Saying this, even He Zhichen himself felt it was a bit too exaggerated.
A classical music album composer.
How could they compare in sales to those music divas and kings with their pop albums?
Whether it’s the target audience, fandom culture, fan loyalty... all are not on the sa level!
But... if it’s "Moonlight and Cat"...
He Zhichen felt that it wasn’t impossible!
If anyone could challenge pop singers with classical music.
Then, He Zhichen thought, that person could only be Lin Tian!
"It sounds good."
Lin Tian contemplated.
In fact, he did not need He Zhichen to say this.
The first ti he released an album, Lin Tian already had such thoughts.
In the history of a previous life, in early 19th century Europe, there was briefly a ti when classical musicians were more popular than pop singers.
That era.
Chopin, Liszt, Paganini... these brilliant and shining classical musicians ca together.
Creating one remarkable piece after another, leaving a bold stroke in the annals of music history.
Distinguished ladies and nobility, the upper class, crazily supported them, with all Europe engaging in worship of classical musicians!
The fervor even surpassed that of pop singers for a ti.
Such glory might be unattainable today.
But to make classical music great again.
This dream is still possible.
"Alright."
Lin Tian replied,
"I’ll complete the second album within this week."
