The world's number one pianist

Zhao Zitong waved to the little girl, and after saying goodbye to her, she rushed downstairs with joy on her face, rushed to Xi Shuwen, and threw herself into her arms.

"Mom! I'm really great! I played really well today! Really!"

"Of course, of course I know, of course my Tongtong is the best!" Xi Shuwen touched her head and said gently.

Zhao Zitong hugged Xi Shuwen and rubbed her ears several times. After clinging to her mother for a while, she suddenly raised her head from her mother's arms and revealed a pair of smiling eyes from the two peaks. Said to Xi Shuwen.

"Mom, you must have never imagined who I just met in the examination room?"

"Who is it?" Xi Shuwen probably guessed it, but still pretended not to know and asked Zhao Zitong.

When Zhao Zitong heard that Xi Shuwen didn't know, he immediately smiled and said with a smile.

"It's Teacher He Shenhe! Teacher He is in the examination room, watching me play the piano!"

"Huh? Really?"

"Of course, Teacher He stood over there very gently, just looking at me and cheering me on! There were no other exams, and I was all alone. I was the only one..."

Zhao Zitong kept chattering in Xi Shuwen's arms and seemed particularly happy.

Xi Shuwen didn't say anything, but looked at Zhao Zitong with a trace of hesitation in his eyes, and then looked at the third floor of the Conservatory of Music, where He Shen was standing before.

She felt like something was slightly wrong.

Zhao Zitong didn't notice anything unusual about Xi Shuwen, and still started talking about He Shen. As she spoke, she suddenly jumped out of Xi Shuwen's arms and said to Xi Shuwen.

"Hey, Mom, let's not go to Teacher He's place to see him again. I must thank Teacher He in person, hehe..."

Zhao Zitong jumped up and down towards the music school building. The first floor of the school was still overcrowded, with countless candidates preparing for the exam.

Xi Shuwen followed Zhao Zitong without blocking him, but stood quietly aside.

As soon as Zhao Zitong reached the stairs, he was stopped by the staff standing at the door.

"Sorry, this place is a teaching area. Non-students of this school are not allowed to enter!"

"Eh? My teacher is He Shen! He is your teacher from the Piano Department of the Music School of Jiangzhou Normal University, He Shen, don't you know?"

The two staff members took a look and shook their heads.

"Sorry, if you want to go up to class, please call your teacher and ask him to come down and take you up, or you can go up if you have a student ID card from our school."

"If you don't have both, then I'm sorry, we can't let you go up. This is our responsibility..."

Zhao Zitong looked at these two extremely old-fashioned people and stamped his foot hard.

"You, you...my teacher is really He Shen!"

"Sorry, it's my duty..."

After seeing Zhao Zitong being blocked by the staff standing downstairs and not letting her in, she walked out from the side, apologized to the two staff members, and took Zhao Zitong away.

"Mom! These people won't let me in. Seriously, please help me!"

"Well, but let's go out first, okay? Go out and call Teacher He, and let Teacher He take us up later, okay?"

"All right……"

Zhao Zitong pouted and followed Xi Shuwen outside the Conservatory of Music.

Seeing Zhao Zitong like this, Xi Shuwen felt more and more uncertain. After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and called He Shen.

After all, Zhao Zitong has been promised.

Buzz…

The phone rings.

He Shen opened his eyes from the sofa and glanced at the phone without any surprise. Sure enough, it was Xi Shuwen's call.

If he guessed correctly, Xi Shuwen should have come to discuss changing teachers.

He Shen reached out to answer the call and gave a faint hum.

"Huh? Is something wrong?"

There was no sound on the other end of the phone at first, but there were several sounds of fighting and inaudible discussions. After a while, Xi Shuwen's voice came over.

"Teacher He, Zitong, her exam has ended."

"Well, that's good."

"She... feels like she did well in the exam and wants to go to your school."

"Um."

He Shen hummed and said nothing, but waited for Xi Shuwen's voice on the other end of the phone.

Xi Shuwen held the mobile phone in his hand and looked at Zhao Zitong who was standing aside, staring at her. After a slight hesitation, he bit his lip hard and said firmly.

"I don't want her to go to your school. I hope she can go to a large music conservatory, similar to Haicheng Conservatory of Music and Huaguo Conservatory of Music, these two conservatories!"

"Mom?"

Zhao Zitong's voice suddenly came over, and it seemed a little bit unbelievable.

"you……"

"Well, it's a good idea. You can give it a try. Zhao Zitong's strength is enough to give him a try at the Haicheng and Huaguo music academies."

Xi Shuwen turned on the speakerphone, and He Shen's voice also reached Zhao Zitong's ears through the phone. She looked at Xi Shuwen's phone in disbelief, and was a little unresponsive for a moment.

He Shen didn't care about Zhao Zitong's reaction. His voice kept coming from the other end of the phone.

"The Conservatory of Music of Jiangzhou Normal University is too small. The strongest student this year, Ji Mengting, is only slightly better than Zhao Zitong. Her strength lies in the fact that she has practiced longer than Zhao Zitong."

"If Zhao Zitong is given the same amount of time, she will definitely be able to catch up with Ji Mengting. She will definitely be able to do it."

"So, I don't recommend Zhao Zitong to apply to our school. I think she can apply to Haicheng or Huaguo."

"If she wants to apply to Huaguo Conservatory of Music, I know a professor who may be able to introduce her. If she wants to apply to Haicheng, she will need to rely on your own connections. I can't do anything about it."

"Zhao Zitong is very talented, so you made the right decision."

He Shen's tone was light, and he always used declarative sentences, which made Zhao Zitong feel very uncomfortable.

She had been hinting to He Shen before that she wanted to keep studying with him, but no matter how she hinted, He Shen ignored her.

As a result, now her mother wants to send her to Haicheng or Huaguo Conservatory of Music!

Her teacher still did not object at all, but expressed his support for this matter.

She wanted to take the phone and curse He Shen, but she didn't know what to curse.

After all, He Shen never said that he would accept her as his apprentice, it was just her wishful thinking...

He Shen on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then spoke again.

"Ms. Xi, I have done what I promised you before. I promised you that Zhao Zitong would pass the art exam."

"From Zhao Zitong's current situation, there is no problem for her to get the top few in the art exam. Now it depends on her grades in the three minor subjects. If her scores in music theory, sight-singing and ear-training are good, her total score will definitely be among the top few in the state."

"Even if she doesn't want to take the school entrance examination, she can also enter some very good comprehensive universities or normal universities through the art exam."

"So..."

He Shen paused for a while before speaking.

"Contract, done."

After saying that, He Shen didn't hesitate at all, and hung up the phone regardless of Zhao Zitong's reaction.

Zhao Zitong looked at the hung up phone, and was a little silent for a while, looking at the phone and didn't know what to say.

My teacher, it turns out that he hates me so much.

My previous behavior, really... made him hate me?

I hated him before, obviously...

Zhao Zitong gritted her teeth, and her mood, which was originally because of the good test, gradually became depressed.

She looked up at the sky, a little confused for a while.

Xi Shuwen looked at Zhao Zitong's expression, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed, but there was nothing he could do.

Who doesn't want his daughter to be happy or happy?

Now his daughter obviously has improper thoughts about He Shen.

The originally pure teacher-student relationship has a little bit of impure things in the middle.

If He Shen is a college student or something like that, Xi Shuwen doesn't care, after all, the age difference between the two is not too big, only about three or four years old.

But...

He Shen is six or seven years older than Zhao Zitong, which is too old.

It is obvious that her daughter likes He Shen because of his strength, which is very irrational.

So, she must let her daughter calm down first, and wait until she calms down a little before talking.

If she still likes He Shen, then forget it.

However, when she goes to college and contacts other boys, she will forget He Shen after more contacts, right?

After all, the contract has been terminated, and there should be no other contact between them...right?

Thinking of this, Xi Shuwen reached out and hugged Zhao Zitong's shoulders.

The moment her shoulder was touched, Zhao Zitong's first reaction was to push Xi Shuwen's hand away, but...

She did not make any move, but just let Xi Shuwen hold her.

Now, her father has left this family, and her teacher has also abandoned her.

The only person she can rely on is her mother.

If I were a little more impulsive and let my mother be hurt by me, then I...

Zhao Zitong was silent for a while, leaned her body against Xi Shuwen, then reached out and hugged Xi Shuwen without saying a word.

Xi Shuwen looked at Zhao Zitong in his arms and sighed.

It seems that only time can smooth all this out.

Xi Shuwen patted Zhao Zitong on the shoulder and whispered.

"Zitong, how about we go home? I made your favorite tomato and pork ribs soup at home, and it's still stewing in the pot. We can drink it when we go back."

"..."

Zhao Zitong hugged Xi Shuwen and was silent for a long time. Just when Xi Shuwen thought Zhao Zitong was going to refuse, Zhao Zitong suddenly spoke in a low voice.

"Okay..."

...

He Shen looked at the main page of the phone, which was exited from the call page, and was a little dazed for a while.

His first reaction was, did he really teach Zhao Zitong?

In just four months, Zhao Zitong's talent, plus her hard work, actually came out?

It was a bit magical for a while.

But at the same time, there was a sense of loss, as if something was missing in life.

It was like a novel that was updated with 10,000 words a day, and suddenly it was finished.

The author felt empty because he suddenly didn't need to write.

The readers felt lost because the novel they had been following was finished.

This is because after repeating something for a long time, it suddenly ended, which caused a sense of gap.

This feeling is really uncomfortable...

He Shen slowly exhaled a long breath, closed his eyes, lay on the sofa, and let his thoughts gradually empty.

After he said those words, according to Zhao Zitong's personality, she should be happy? After all, she didn't like him at the beginning, and later she insisted on learning from him, probably because he won the Golden Piano Award...

Or would she feel a little disappointed? After all, he has taught her for so long, it is normal to change teachers suddenly...

However, Zhao Zitong's emotions have nothing to do with him. Now they can no longer be regarded as teachers and students, and the contract has been terminated.

I can only hope that she can find a better teacher in the future, and that teacher can also discover her talent.

Anyway, now his work is over, and the next job is to correct the recordings of these art exam students, give them scores, and register them in the list.

After the scoring of the art exam is over, he will need to participate in the domestic music college competition, take the top students of each age in the school, and compete with people from other schools to compete for the quota for the Chopin International Piano Competition.

I hope the competition of the domestic music college will not be too difficult, so that the Jiangzhou Normal University Music College will not be wiped out...

If the Jiangzhou Normal University Music College is wiped out, it will be interesting...

If I want to qualify for the Chopin International Piano Competition, I can only go to Mr. Zhou or Professor Dan Yi

No matter which professor I go to, I must represent their music college.

At that time, it would be really difficult for me to handle it...

After all, no matter what, I am a teacher of Jiangzhou Normal University Conservatory of Music, but I ended up representing Huaguo Conservatory of Music and Chuanzhou Conservatory of Music...

Looking back, I feel that Zhou San might tear me apart...

He Shen thought for a while, took out his mobile phone, and called Ji Mengting.

If he guessed correctly, Ji Mengting should follow the team and go to the competition of Huaguo Conservatory of Music, representing the freshmen of Jiangzhou Normal University Conservatory of Music.

So...

After two beeps, the phone was quickly connected.

Ji Mengting's voice came from the other end of the phone immediately.

"Teacher? You want me?"

"Well, come to my office. I just have nothing to do today. I can help you fill in the gaps in your work in the remaining time."

After that, He Shen hung up the phone, sat on the sofa, and waited for Ji Mengting to come.

(Weakly asking for monthly tickets?)
