Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1422.642. The Eve
The Yenching Concert Hall is two subway lines away from the Jige Hotel.

However, the teacher and student did not return to the hotel immediately after exiting the subway.

"You can find a classroom to attend a class later, or take a walk around the campus."

As they entered the gates of the China Conservatory of Music, Ang Lee instructed Xiao Che, "Just don't go too far. I'll call you when I'm done."

Little Car: "Don't worry, teacher."

The teacher and student parted ways on the spot. It was the start of the school season, and the campus was unusually lively.

Everywhere I looked, there were older brothers and sisters carrying instrument cases. As the car cruised into the depths of the campus, the image of the rehearsal hall still lingered in my mind.

Recalling her conversation with the teachers from the International Exchange Center, she seemed to understand Wang Xiaohu's joy.

"Being in command is definitely a very enjoyable thing."

Muttering to himself, Xiao Che took out his phone, hesitated for a moment, and then called Wang Xiaohu.

On the other end of the phone, Wang Xiaohu was thinking of sending a message to Xiaoche to ask how the rehearsal was going.

As it turned out, speak of the devil and he appears!

wrong!

It's a meeting of minds.

"Hey!"

Hearing Wang Xiaohu's excited tone on the phone, Xiao Che was immediately relieved, as she had been worried that Wang Xiaohu wouldn't be able to muster any energy these past few days.

"I'm done here, what are you doing?" the car asked.

Wang Xiaohu: "I'm thinking of you."

Car: "Believe it or not, I'll hang up right now!"

Wang Xiaohu immediately interrupted, "Believe it, believe it, believe it."

He paused, then said, "You're really boring, so how's the rehearsal going?"

Xiao Che: "Not bad. If nothing unexpected happens, I'm going to play the finger-flicking game the day after tomorrow."

Wang Xiaohu: "What?!"

Xiao Che smiled and said, "That's right."

Wang Xiaohu: "What's going on! Grandpa Xie isn't going on stage? Is he going to play the self-fingering game like Fisher?"

Car: "Yes, like Fisher, snapping his fingers."

Before Wang Xiaohu could say anything more on the other end of the phone, Xiao Che continued to recount the whole story.

Hearing this, Brother Xiaohu was filled with immense grief and wished he could fly to Yanjing right now!

"You're actually going to command diplomatic relations now!"

Wang Xiaohu suddenly had a feeling that perhaps he would never be able to reach Arlene's starting point in his entire life!
"It's just a temporary need for a collaborative stage," Xiao Che corrected. "Watch your words."

Wang Xiaohu: "Well, that's conducting too. Okay, okay, anyway, it's you, not someone else. Send me the rehearsal recording later."

Car: "Hey, what are you having for dinner?"

Wang Xiaohu: "Grandma is cooking pork ribs."

Xiao Che: "Didn't we have pork ribs for lunch?"

Wang Xiaohu: "For lunch, we had beef ribs, and for dinner, we had pork ribs. Sigh, Grandma really didn't want me to leave."

Xiao Che: "Of course, but there's nothing we can do. We'll just have to video call Grandma more often when we get there."

Wang Xiaohu: "Hey, where are you now? Haven't you gone back to the hotel? Where's the teacher?"

Xiao Che looked up and said, "I'm sitting on a bench opposite the concert hall of the China Conservatory of Music right now. My teacher went to see Professor Xiao."

Wang Xiaohu: "Oh, my teacher's wife's teacher."

Xiao Che: "Yes, the teacher is going to tell Professor Xiao about his marriage certificate with his wife."

Wang Xiaohu: "Okay, so why don't the teacher and his wife post on WeChat Moments?"

Xiao Che thought for a moment and said, "It's probably because they find it troublesome. Think about it, with the teacher and his wife's social circle, how many people would want to send their blessings and then keep asking when the banquet is going to be held? The teacher is probably too lazy to keep replying to messages."

Wang Xiaohu: "You really understand your teacher, right, Alin? There's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Xiao Che: "Why are you suddenly so serious?"

Wang Xiaohu: "Well, it's not anything particularly serious, it's just that we might have to separate the bean buns and tofu pudding."

Xiao Che: "Does Grandma want to raise tofu pudding?" Wang Xiaohu: "Yes, I think Grandma should raise it for a while first. She said that if she has tofu pudding to keep her company, she won't miss me so much."

Xiao Che: "Ask Grandma if she'd like to take Doubao over too."

Wang Xiaohu exclaimed excitedly, "Really, Ah Lin!"

Little Car: "Really? As long as Grandma is willing."

Wang Xiaohu: "Grandma will definitely agree! She will be extremely grateful to you! Thank you, Arlene!"

Xiao Che Le: "I should thank Grandma. She definitely took better care of me than I did."

Wang Xiaohu: "That's great, that's great! Now they don't have to be separated anymore. If you miss them, you can come over to play anytime."

Little Car: "Yeah, are you happy?"

Wang Xiaohu: "Sigh, I'm still happy. Okay, I'm going to help with the work now. Message me if you have time tonight."

Car: "Okay, okay, you're so long-winded."

Wang Xiaohu: "Hmph! I'll hang up first this time."

Wang Xiaohu hung up without hesitation, put away his phone, and continued walking along the path in front of the concert hall.

Hopefully, Tiger can maintain this state.

September in Yanjing is still full of hormones, and Xiao Che noticed that the thighs of the girls from the National Academy were all very white.

As she passed a chamber music classroom, she heard the sound of strings coming from inside and stopped.

Ang Lee is right, you can indeed just walk into any of the classrooms here.

He originally thought it would only take twenty minutes at most, but two hours passed in the end.

In the end, Teacher Xiao insisted that he stay for dinner.

Having no other choice, he had to first push away Boss X's side and then call the car upstairs.

This wasn't the first time Xiao Hongxia had seen Xiao Che, but she still slipped him a red envelope.

Perhaps this child, Xiao Che, was born with good luck.

During the meal, Xiao Hongxia said that she would definitely go to see Xiao Che's performance the night after tomorrow.

"Thank you, Grandma!"

Maybe so; girls with sweet words are destined to have good luck.
-
The rest of the evening will be spent in the lobby of the Gigo Hotel.

Xiao Che sat in the corner with the band's score in his arms, seemingly lost in thought. He would occasionally pick up his phone to check it, until he went upstairs to sleep at eleven o'clock.

Throughout this process, our teacher, Ms. Li, remained seated at the piano in the lobby.

While video chatting with Teacher Xiaomi, I went through Chopin's Ten Etudes.

Mr. X, who was stood up, did not show up all night, until the afternoon of the following day.

The car was discussing the tempo of the second movement with the orchestra members when Boss X rushed over.

I chatted with Ang Lee in the audience for a while, offering him my congratulations and best wishes.

As the matter neared its end, Boss X realized something was wrong.

Where is Grandpa Xie?

Almost half an hour had passed, and Boss X still hadn't seen Old Master Xie.

He'll be on stage tomorrow!

"She will go on stage herself tomorrow."

Ang Lee smiled faintly, but it made Boss X very uncomfortable.

A moment later, even Boss X couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"No."

Boss X tapped his forehead with his little finger and muttered, "There are only a few national-level troupes in Beijing, and they all owe your Li family a debt."

Ann Lee: "Who can argue with that?"

On the stage, the lights elongated the shape of the car.

Another day has passed in the blink of an eye.

The following afternoon at 6:30 p.m., audience members began to enter the Yenching Concert Hall.
