Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

"So, '830' insisted on coming along to see... saying... saying he wanted to get to know you..."

"Get to know him?" Li Chaoyang raised an eyebrow and looked at the petty bourgeois again.

Although Old Joe hadn't explained it clearly, he could still glean some meaning from Old Joe's tone.

This petit bourgeois woman, always impeccably dressed

They really came here looking for trouble!

However, since she wasn't Old Qiao's daughter, Li Chaoyang naturally didn't hold back.

He glanced at her sideways and said meaningfully, "Oh...so you're the commander's daughter!"

"And she's a top student from a music academy!"

"Old Joe, so it seems like I, a country bumpkin, have run into a professionally trained, well-trained soldier?"

“However… this Miss Chen…” As he spoke, Li Chaoyang’s eyes became playful, and he asked with a cold smile, “Since you look down on someone like me who gets lucky by chance… then why did you insist on coming to my house?”

"And they're even eager to get to know me... That's really strange!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Qimei pointed at Li Chaoyang and said urgently, "Who wants to come here to get to know you!"

"If it weren't for my dad rejecting my teacher's work because of your piece!"

"I wouldn't bother coming to a dump like this!"

"Xiaomei, how can you talk like that!" Qiao Shuhua didn't expect this girl to say such a thing.

At this moment, he glared at her angrily and shouted to stop her.

This finally made Chen Qimei put her hand down.

But the girl's arrogant expression remained unchanged.

They wouldn't give up even more.

"Section Chief Li, my teacher is one of the top musicians in the entire country!"

"His classic works are too numerous to count!"

"Even he had to rack his brains for months to create a piece that would satisfy my dad and the others!"

"How could an amateur like you possibly write a song that's better than his?"

"I'll tell you the truth!"

"I came here with Uncle Qiao today... just to see what kind of important person you really are!"

"Now that I've seen it, it's not all that great!"

As she spoke, the girl seemed to have regained her confidence, and a hint of arrogance and disdain appeared on her face. "So what if you got lucky and wrote two good songs? You really think you're a musician!"

"You actually dared to say you'd write a song right now... I think you're just being incredibly arrogant!"

"I just don't believe it... my teacher..." she continued rambling on.

"Xiaomei, shut up!" Old Qiao couldn't sit still any longer. He interrupted her and yelled, "What nonsense are you spouting!"

"Get out if you say another word!"

Old Joe's face was dark with anger, and his tone was very stern.

This finally managed to subdue the arrogant daughter of the guild leader!

Seeing that she had stopped talking, Old Qiao turned to Li Chaoyang with an apologetic expression and said, "Chaoyang, don't mind it..."

"This little girl... has been spoiled rotten by us uncles and elders since she was little, and she's become a bit unruly."

"So you might sound a bit arrogant, but please don't take it to heart..."

"Alright, let's get down to business first. Before, Commander Chen..." Old Qiao said, his expression turning serious as he prepared to return to the main topic.

But even Li Chaoyang is looked down upon...

I was in no mood to talk to him about anything serious.

He raised his hand to interrupt Qiao Shuhua and said in a very dissatisfied tone, "Teacher Qiao, please tell me what's going on with this lady first... Is this Miss Chen here to confront me?"

"Teacher Qiao, are you sure... it's the Zhan You Art Troupe that wants me to write a song?"

"Instead of me eagerly writing new songs for them?"

At this point, Li Chaoyang stopped calling him Old Qiao and even started using honorifics.

But the expression on his face was one of impatience...

To be honest, if it weren't for giving Teacher Qiao face, he would have made this girl question her existence right now!

That's right, he really wanted to use the rewards to build up the thickest armor so he could withstand the storms to come!

But that doesn't mean this has to be done by the Zhan You Art Troupe!

Just pick one or two of your own works...

Give it to any performing arts troupe to participate in a cultural performance.

Getting a ranking in the professional group and winning an award is a piece of cake.

What's more, this is the capital city of Beijing!

This city has more than one of the nation's top performing arts troupes!

Besides, wasn't it their comrades' art troupe that came to ask me to sing?

If that's the case, why bring the regimental commander's daughter along with Old Joe?

What exactly does this mean?

Li Chaoyang's face darkened; he was no longer willing to give Lao Qiao any face.

He now seriously doubts whether what Old Joe just said is actually true.

If Old Joe were to take it upon himself and rush to ask the comrades-in-arms' cultural troupe for help...

Then he really didn't want to write for them anymore...

No other reason than that I'm not that shameless!

.......

Looking at Li Chaoyang's expression, Old Qiao knew he was getting angry...

After getting to know him over this period of time, Old Joe naturally realized that this young man in front of him had quite a temper...

Suddenly, Old Qiao regretted bringing the proud and arrogant Chen Qimei here...

Actually, it was just a coincidence.

When he went to the cultural troupe in the morning, Chen Qimei, entrusted by her teacher, delivered her latest work to the 5.8 Comrades Cultural Troupe.

Director Chen was initially quite satisfied with the new work by the professor from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music.

They even promised that if the work was approved at the meeting, it would be used in the upcoming arts festival.

But then, they faintly heard the melody of "We Workers Have Strength" coming from the rehearsal hall...

Upon hearing this, Commander Chen immediately changed his mind, abandoning Professor Lü's new work and heading straight to the rehearsal hall.

Fortunately, Joshua had a backup plan; he neither revealed the complete melody nor uttered any lyrics.

Since Commander Chen couldn't get the song "We Workers Have Strength," he had to ask Li Chaoyang to write a song for him.

But Chen Qimei insisted on coming with Qiao Shuhua to see Li Chaoyang...

In the end, out of respect for Commander Chen, Old Qiao brought her along.

But he never expected things to turn out this way...

After thinking about the generous offers that Commander Chen had mentioned, Qiao Shuhua said with a serious expression, "Chaoyang, the troupe genuinely wants you to write a new song, and the terms they've offered are quite good..."

"Commander Chen even wanted to recruit you into the Comrades-in-Arms Cultural Troupe..."

"They even said if you're willing to join the performing arts troupe, they'll promote you to officer right away!"

"And we guarantee that as long as you make meritorious contributions within three years, you will definitely be promoted to the rank of battalion commander!"

"At least a major will be appointed then..."

"Stop, stop, stop, Teacher Qiao..." Li Chaoyang laughed when he heard this.

Three years later, the entire army will be without ranks, and they're still here making empty promises with the rank of major.

After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but remind her directly, "Teacher Qiao...did you forget?"

"I was already a section-level cadre in my local area..."

"But to get into your performing arts troupe... I'd have to be demoted two ranks first, right?"

"And I would have to make meritorious contributions within three years to be reinstated to my current rank?"

At this point, Li Chaoyang looked at Lao Qiao with amusement and asked, "Teacher Qiao, I feel like this is a joke. And... what was Commander Chen thinking? Why would he offer such generous terms..."

Forehead...

Qiao Shuhua was stunned for a moment when she heard this.
