I can transfer damage

Bai Yao and Cheng Hui are both beautiful, and both are the kind of beauties who can be spotted at a glance in a crowd.

It's been more than half a month since school started, and the classmates have become familiar with Bai Yao. Among familiar people, even the most beautiful woman is quickly seen again.

therefore……

It's impossible for Bai Yao's beauty to cause any congestion among the classmates.

But Cheng Hui was different. Almost everyone in the class was seeing Cheng Hui for the first time. She was wearing a white dress, her hair was simply hanging down on both sides, and she had a faint smile on her face, like a gentle breeze that blew away the restlessness of September, making people feel intoxicated and captivated.

It is said that clothes make the man, and Cheng Hui's advantage is indeed in her clothing. She is obviously better at dressing up, and her fashion sense is better than Bai Yao's.

therefore……

The two, who should have been evenly matched in terms of beauty, were forced to grow apart.

"What are you doing...?"

Bai Yao helped Lu Ziye out of the classroom. Cheng Hui's eyes were clearly dazed for a moment. Before she could ask, Su Yuan approached her with a smile.

"It's nothing, I just accidentally missed a step last night!"

Lu Ziye lied, glanced at Cheng Hui, and then asked Su Yuan, "You're looking for me?"

Su Yuan chuckled and glanced behind her: "It wasn't me, it was A-Hui looking for you!"

Feeling a little embarrassed by being stared at by so many people, Cheng Hui had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "How about we go to the cafeteria first?"

"That's okay too!"

The group hurried up the stairs, leaving behind a trail of legends.

"Wow, it really is Cheng Hui!"

"Why is she looking for Lu Ziye?"

"Why is Lu Ziye being supported by Bai Yao? They can't really be..."

"I heard Lu Ziye is a rich second-generation!"

"I heard Bai Yao and Cheng Hui almost got into a fight over Lu Ziye!"

"I heard that Cheng Hui and Lu Ziye were originally high school sweethearts, but after Lu Ziye went to college, he fell for Bai Yao, so she came to their door demanding an explanation!"

"I heard..."

Lu Ziye had no idea the rumors were so outrageous. He didn't want to go to the cafeteria anymore, since it would definitely be packed with people right now, and with their setup, they would definitely become the center of attention.

"How about we go to the music room? We can get some takeout later!"

"Alright!"

The group changed their itinerary and headed straight to the music room. It was empty at lunchtime, and Cheng Hui had booked the music room for two hours in advance, which meant that the music room would be theirs from now until 3 p.m.

Bai Yao actually wanted to leave, but for some reason, she kept following. Then she thought that she could practice singing with Lu Ziye in a while.

In reality, duet singing doesn't require daily practice. Just go through the routine a few times and familiarize yourselves with it before going on stage.

"I listened to your piece yesterday and was deeply moved. Were those pieces your inspiration?"

Cheng Hui couldn't help but ask.

Lu Ziye nodded without batting an eye. He and Bai Yao's song "Because of Love" was already set. If Cheng Hui could play the piano piece he wrote, her chances of becoming famous would be much greater.

therefore……

Lu Ziye also took Cheng Hui's program very seriously.

"Actually, after I got back yesterday, I thought about it carefully and finally finished the last part of that piece of music!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Hui's eyes lit up: "Then I wonder if we'll have a chance to be among the first listeners!"

Lu Ziye didn't speak, but sat down on the stool. The Book of Exodus became clearer in his mind.

Lu Ziye in his previous life already knew this piece by heart, mainly because of Maksim's version. Lu Ziye had also posted several versions online, which were widely praised.

However, for the world, it is still just a brand new piece of music.

Lu Ziye also wanted to see if the people of this world could accept the artistic works from his previous life.

He's playing Maksim's version now. Although it's just a piano solo, the magnificent and grand feeling it evokes is right in the piano's comfort zone, therefore...

As the curtain rose, the audience seemed to witness a magnificent chapter of history!

Cheng Hui initially didn't take it seriously.

Yesterday's inspirational moment surprised Cheng Hui, but in reality, it was still a long, long way from becoming a complete piece.

and……

Anyone who is a music professional has a few brilliant ideas.

only……

These inspirational sketches are like copywriting written by literature majors—they may be beautiful and sound profound, but they're empty, fake, and lack any supporting basis.

A truly good piece of music, like a complete novel, needs a structure.

Unfortunately……

Many people can write copy, but those who can truly write masterpieces are one in a million.

but……

As those slender index fingers move slowly and quickly across the black and white keys, sketching out musical movements that are sometimes lyrical and sometimes soaring, the undulating notes seem to transform into layers of surging water, gradually submerging one's insteps, waist, and even the top of one's head.

Cheng Hui shivered, feeling as if her hair was about to stand on end.

Not only her, but also Su Yuan and the others around her, all had blank stares, as if they had been frozen in place, or as if they had entered an illusion, with different expressions.

At this moment, Bai Yao stared blankly at Lu Ziye playing the piano. She thought that Lu Ziye was really too handsome at this moment.

It's like...

Suddenly, a beauty filter was applied and special effects were added.

No wonder people say that serious men are handsome.

at last……

As the piece ended, Lu Ziye tapped the piano, thinking to himself that the instrument was getting a bit old.

In the blink of an eye, they met the gazes of Cheng Hui and the others again, their eyes filled with fervor and excitement.

"I've made a fool of myself!"

Lu Ziye stood up and smiled.

"Not at all!" Cheng Hui immediately retorted, "You're too modest. This piece of music... I can't comment on it. What's the name of this piece?"

Lu Ziye remained silent. "Exodus" was definitely out of the question. After a moment's thought, he said, "Let's call it 'Ashes of Time'!"

Time... ashes?

Cheng Hui was stunned, carefully pondering the emotions she felt in the music and the meaning of the name!

She did indeed hear the echoes of history and the cheers of humanity in this piece, but all of this seemed to bow down to the passage of time.

Even history.

only……

The music contains a passionate struggle, while the name evokes a sense of loneliness.

However, just as she was trying to understand what he meant, Lu Ziye's words stunned Cheng Hui.

"How about I give you this piano piece?"

"Huh? You're giving it to me?" Cheng Huixing's eyes widened, flashing with disbelief and confusion.

Lu Ziye chuckled and nodded, "Yes, it's yours, but I have one condition: you must bring it to the National Day Freshman Assembly in a few days!"

Cheng Hui stared, wondering what kind of conditions these were.

She shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, I can't take it!"

She majored in composition and compositional theory, and minored in music appreciation. Naturally, she could hear how good the piece was and understood that every work was the result of the author's painstaking efforts. Let alone giving it away, even selling it would feel like selling a child to many people.

Little did she know, Lu Ziye had countless children!
