"Welco our Tian Chao's number one cellist."
Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu had just stepped out of the Golden Hall venue.
In the parking lot, He Zhichen opened his arms with a smile,
"Well done."
Beside He Zhichen were two familiar faces.
"Yo! Well done, Mr. Lin Tian, Ms. Gan Yanyu!"
Gao Zhenyang waved his hand.
"Tian Chao's number one anything... too fast."
Gan Yanyu said shyly, but she knew He Zhichen was complinting their performance today, so she smiled.
"How is it too fast?"
The "Moonlight and Cat's number one fan" Gao Zhenyang was displeased,
"First cellist in 40 years to score 98 points in a world competition, first cellist in 16 years to enter the finals!"
"I must say, calling it 'the greatest in history' wouldn't be an exaggeration...."
"Enough, enough."
Lin Tian covered Gao Zhenyang's mouth.
You keep jinxing!
If it's jinxed in the end, it'll be fun!
"Surpass Elder Gan first, then say this." Lin Tian said.
16 years ago, Sir Gan, also relying on classical music, entered the third phase.
But he ultimately lost in the finals.
At that ti, there were 8 contestants in the finals.
So Sir Gan's achievent could be called the "Top Eight."
Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu aren't even in the Top Eight yet, their finals have 14 people.
If not careful, they might not even surpass Sir Gan.
Bragging about this now is really a bit too early.
"Why are you here?"
Lin Tian asked He Zhichen,
"Don't you need to go back to school?"
"I ca to see if there's anything you need help with."
Gao Zhenyang scratched his head with a smile,
"The finals are coming soon. If there's a chance, of course, I should co witness you making history in person and give any help I can."
After saying that, Gao Zhenyang didn't forget to pat He Zhichen beside him, suddenly showing a mischievous smile:
"Also, to help soone feel a bit more balanced."
He Zhichen adjusted his glasses fra without expression, but it was clear from his slightly flushed cheeks that he was embarrassed.
About their previous bet.
He Zhichen lost, and would have to give up his title as the officiant.
If Gao Zhenyang lost, he'd leave his school work and accompany Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu throughout their stay in Vienna.
Now, Gao Zhenyang won, but he still ca over at the start of the second phase.
In his view, he was being very considerate! He Zhichen should thank him!
However, He Zhichen evidently wasn't in the mood to interact with him, even feeling more aggrieved seeing Gao Zhenyang's mischievous smile…..
"Alright, alright, teachers, let's talk more on our way back."
Gao Zhenyang stretched out his hand to invite Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu to get in the car.
Unknowingly, this remark lit the fuse on a gunpowder barrel, and He Zhichen couldn't take it anymore, raising his fist to repeatedly tap on Gao Zhenyang's back:
"Damn it, are you the manager or am I the manager?"
"Is it your place to say this?"
"The person always by Gan Yanyu and Mr. Lin Tian's side is ! Not you!"
"For Gan Yanyu and Mr. Lin Tian, for eating, traveling, training, or competing, I'm the one in charge!! Not you!!"
"....."
Under repeated taps, Gao Zhenyang repeatedly begged for rcy, obediently moving to the passenger seat.
This scene left Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu astonished.
Goodness!
Mr. He has this hot-headed side!
Lin Tian didn't know which reverse scale of He Zhichen was touched that made him suddenly so angry.
He and Gan Yanyu got into the back seat of the car and buckled their seat belts.
This was an SUV rented by He Zhichen in Vienna.
Because He Zhichen used to accompany artists for overseas activities frequently, he got an international driving license early on, which made their travels much easier.
"Let's go."
He Zhichen started the car and turned the steering wheel.
The car drove out of the parking lot onto the main road.
Passing by the Golden Hall, the imposing building still stood there, and Gan Yanyu turned her head to look out the window as the Golden Hall faded away into the distance.
Recalling their endeavors inside today, Gan Yanyu still felt it was sowhat unreal.....
The second phase just ended like this.
The next one is their final competition.....
Gan Yanyu gazed at the Golden Hall, lost in thought.
At this mont, a hand climbed onto the back of the girl's hand.·
Gan Yanyu turned her head, Lin Tian held her hand, resting his head on her shoulder:
"Soon, we will be back."
Lin Tian smiled.
"Mm."
Gan Yanyu nodded, unable to tell if she felt worried or delighted.
She just turned her head to look at Lin Tian's face, so close to her.
