"Oh??" But how did you know I could play the piano? " The corners of Zhou Man's mouth twitched. Her tone carried a hint of laziness.
"That's very normal. A man will always be especially attentive towards women he likes." Shi Mingge teased him, as a naughty smile hung on his face.
Hearing Shi Mingge's words, Zhou Manzhu's delicate face contorted. The corner of her mouth twitched as she asked, "You like me?"
"Can't I?" Shi Mingge asked instead of answering, continuing to smile.
Zhou Manzhen frowned and said with a righteous tone, "Of course not, I'm already married!"
"Fine, fine, fine. I know you're Mrs. King now. You don't have to say it again. I was just joking." Shi Mingge seemed to be deep in thought. No one could tell whether he was joking or not.
"That's more like it. Don't joke about it in the future, it's not good for others to hear." Zhou Manzhen muttered to himself.
"Why?" Shi Mingge raised his eyebrows, "I'm afraid your family's Jin Beisen knows about this?"
"There are some things that don't happen, and there's no need to let it happen. Even if it does happen, there won't be any results, so it's best not to even joke about it."
"How do you know there won't be a result if nothing happened?"
"It's because I know there won't be an outcome that I didn't want to let it happen." Zhou Man said in a neither light nor heavy tone as she started to play word games with Shi Mingge.
Fortunately, Shi Mingge had a clear mind. If it was any other person, they would have already been confused by Zhou Manzhen's logic. Shi Mingge knew what Zhou Manquan was thinking, so he just smiled without saying a word and continued driving.
String music industry.
A black Land Rover pulled steadily to the side of the road, and a young man and woman jumped out.
Zhou Manzhen walked into the music industry. This company had been in A city for more than thirty years, and her first piano was bought here. The owner of the music industry was a teacher who had once taught her how to play.
After the car accident, Zhou Manzhu decided not to play anymore and let Zhou Tinhao sell her piano. She remembered that her first piano was worth over 500, 000 yuan, and Zhou Tinghui and Zhao Lizi always gave everything they had to Zhou Manzhen.
A melodious tune came from the music shop. A man in his early fifties was sitting in front of a white piano with a tripod playing "To Alice". He straightened his back, closed his eyes, and memorized the black and white keyboard.
She knew Teacher Lu's rules. He didn't like to be interrupted while playing the zither, and even if guests came at this time, he would still continue to play until the end of the song.
After the song, Teacher Lu slowly opened his eyes. Only then did he wake up from the music. He stood up and looked towards the person who just arrived.
"Little... Little Pure? " Lu laoshi's trembling voice was filled with surprise and joy. He didn't expect to see his student again.
In the past thirty years, he had brought out a few hundred students, all of whom were accomplished in their studies. Zhou Manzhen was one of the students he was most proud of, and he was Zhou Manzhen's teacher in enlightenment.
"Lu laoshi." Zhou Manzhen laughed as he walked over.
"Xiaochun, is it really you?" Teacher Lu looked at Zhou Manzhen with some uncertainty, thinking that he had recognized the wrong person.
"It's me."
"Come, take a seat. Why are you here today?" Teacher Lu enthusiastically invited Zhou Manzhu to sit down. Today was not a weekend, and he did not have much business in his shop during the day.
"I miss teacher, I also want to play the zither." Zhou Manzhen said with a gentle smile, feeling a sense of softness in her heart.
"Little girl, you've long since left. With my level, I'm afraid you've already surpassed me." Lu laoshi said with a warm smile.
"To tell you the truth, teacher said that I came today to buy a piano."
"Sure, what brand do you like?"
"Pearl River and Yamaha can do it."
Zhou Manzhun and Teacher Lu chatted for a while, while Shi Mingge didn't stop either. He paced back and forth in the music business until he finally stopped beside a piano with a tripod.
Although Shi Mingge didn't know how to play the zither, he still pulled open the zither stool and sat down. Then, he put his fingers on the keyboard.
The slender fingers pressed down heavily, producing a few sounds.
Zhou Manzhu walked over after hearing the sound. She smiled mockingly at Shi Mingge and said, "What? Young Master Shi wants to learn piano too? "
"I don't want to. I just want to see how beautiful this piano is. It suits you."
Zhou Manquan glanced at the piano that Shi Mingge was referring to. It was the Macallan Piano, a low-key and luxurious big brand. It used top-grade wood, and the price was as high as eight hundred thousand yuan.
Looking around the piano, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart. Big brands were really different. They had ingenious designs and the piano's composition was the highest. Unfortunately, she couldn't afford it!
Zhou Manzhen also did not intend to buy anything good. A piano of about fifty thousand RMB was enough. McCarron's piano was very beautiful, but it was too expensive.
"This piano only arrived last month. I made a great effort to buy it. Wow, it's really expensive, but the sound is very beautiful. Xiaochun, play it." Seeing Zhou Manzhu staring at the piano, Teacher Lu walked over and said with a smile.
Zhou Manzhen sat down and placed her fingers on the keyboard. She closed her eyes to calm her mind and immediately began to think about the score of "Canon".
Zhou Manjing, who had not played the zither for a long time, very smoothly played "Canon" down. The entire song was very lyrical, without a single Carton.
"Xiaochun, how many years has it been since you last played?" Teacher Lu said foolishly as he stared at Zhou Weiqing with a flabbergasted expression.
"More than four years."
"It seems like you haven't forgotten at all. After you left the country, I heard from your mother that you sold your piano."
"Yeah, something happened at that time." Zhou Man closed the lid completely. The lid was automatic. She watched as the lid slowly descended and removed her fingers.
"Xiaochun, there's a revival tournament one month before the 'Midsummer Night's Dream' finals. When that time comes, you can go and participate. With your strength, you'll definitely be able to enter the finals." Lu laoshi was delighted as he smiled in gratitude.
Zhou Manzhen was silent for a long time before her clear eyes suddenly opened. She solemnly nodded her head and said, "I think so too."
"This is the piano, swipe the card." Shi Mingge pursed his lips and spoke in a deep voice. At the same time, he took out a bank card from his wallet.
"Wait... Wait, I didn't say I wanted this piano." Zhou Manzhen stopped the impulsive Shi Mingge. This piano was worth eight hundred thousand yuan. In A city, one could buy half a suite in some small towns.
"Why are you so nervous when I'm paying?" Shi Mingge saw through Zhou Manzhu's thoughts. He knew that this girl definitely had no money, so he boldly said.
