Lu Mingfei found Xia Mi's cooking tasteless, as if he had lost his sense of taste.
He could easily survive a month on takeout, but to avoid misunderstandings and not want to disappoint Xia Mi.
Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth and shoved the smelly, plastic-looking food into his mouth.
Getting back to the point, Lu Mingfei pushed open the door and saw Ling sitting on the sofa watching TV. Having learned from his experience in the morning, Ling had come early to freeload a meal.
Her dignified and obedient sitting posture resembled that of a doll being charged.
Hearing the noise at the door, Ling turned and nodded slightly to Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei nodded in response, then looked towards the kitchen, where a sizzling sound could be heard as the young cook was stir-frying vegetables.
I couldn't help much, so I arranged the dishes and utensils in advance.
If mopping the floor is part of the housework, then the floor is clean, which suggests that Xia Mi cleaned it after waking up from her afternoon nap.
Secondly, having Zero present and having him do the work would make Zero, who has nothing to do, feel awkward.
In fact, she never mops the floor; she is extremely clean, even more so than Xia Mi and Lu Mingfei.
The person who truly does nothing and reaps the benefits is Lu Mingfei.
There's nothing he can do; he has an adorable junior sister at home who's equally at home and a mature, blonde angel next door.
It's so good that other boys and even girls would grit their teeth in anger if they saw it.
Lu Mingfei is a content person. Compared to the life he lived as a dependent at his aunt's house, his current life is unimaginable, as happy and beautiful as a bubble dream.
It will shatter with a snap at the most unexpected moment.
Lu Mingfei will fight, protect, and defend his life. Anyone who dares to disrupt this peaceful and tranquil life that belongs to him will be his enemy.
"I really hope that these days can continue forever," Lu Mingfei thought to himself.
During the meal, Lu Mingfei revealed that he and Liu Miaomiao had signed up for the piano competition, and mentioned that he would be going out for the next few days.
The reason Lu Mingfei took the initiative to reveal this was not only because of the Great Xia Dynasty's rules of sharing blessings and hardships, helping each other and never deceiving each other, but also because Lu Mingfei was worried about being misunderstood by Xia Mi.
She was in a bad mood, and with the "dislike of Lu" debuff, it was hard not to suspect that Lu Mingfei was cheating on her... no, that he had ulterior motives and was secretly colluding with an enemy when she saw him going out for hours every day.
This was a very important matter, and Lu Mingfei chose sincerity.
Xia Mi's reaction to this:
"Oh."
The reaction was like clear water, very faint.
Lu Mingfei was disappointed. Although he was afraid that Xia Mi would misunderstand and distort the innocent relationship between him and Teacher Miaomiao, he did not want to see Xia Mi's reaction, which showed that she did not take it seriously.
He spoke so casually, as if he had overheard Lu Mingfei ordering a chicken hotpot outside.
However, Lu Mingfei's favorite food is Xia Mi's cooking.
As I said before, ignoring is the greatest form of anger.
Lu Mingfei would rather be viciously slandered by Xia Mi than be ignored by her.
Oh no, I used to be the one using PUA tactics on Teacher Da Ye, but now I'm the one being used on him.
The boomerang will eventually hit you; sometimes it's just a matter of time.
Lu Mingfei felt bitter, and after tasting the soup, it became even more bitter.
Ling observed silently from the side, and she thought... Liu Miaomiao was a genius!
Why didn't she think of using the excuse of practicing piano every day to participate in a piano competition to openly occupy Lu Mingfei's time and spend time alone with him?
The piano competition premise has already been patented by Liu Miaomiao. Ling is now wondering how she can openly infringe on Lu Mingfei's time.
study?
This is Xia Mi's work.
Combat guidance?
Lu Mingfei didn't need her guidance at all.
Conversely, what can she do? What are her hobbies and interests?
dancing.
Ling thought to herself that she could teach Lu Mingfei to dance. Lu Mingfei probably couldn't dance, at least he hadn't shown it.
The key issue is the lack of an opportunity to showcase it.
Ling was thinking, why not have Chip Girl invest a lot of money to host a social dance party when school starts?
At that time, Ling will be able to dance with Lu Mingfei.
Hands-on instruction.
Even the aloof Zero couldn't help but hum softly inside at the thought of the two dancing intimately together.
The next day, Lu Mingfei and Liu Miaomiao agreed that the practice time would be from 3 pm to 6 pm, and the address would be the Lanyin Piano Art Center in the downtown business district.
We are a legitimate private training institution with business registration, independent soundproof practice rooms, resident professional teachers, and hourly rental of practice rooms. We specialize in preparing for competitions and preparing students for art college entrance exams.
Liu Miaomiao's piano teacher works here; he used to teach her at home.
However, Liu Miaomiao was severely reprimanded by her parents yesterday and dared not bring Lu Mingfei home, so she decided to keep him outside.
Ms. Su, Liu Miaomiao's teacher, is an elegant and poised woman, around forty years old, with very well-maintained skin.
She received a message from Liu Miaomiao on Feixun, they had an exchange, and she became aware of Lu Mingfei's existence.
She secretly sized up the boy in front of her. Liu Miaomiao emphasized that in order to improve the winning rate, she should find a teammate to sign up for the duo team.
But Liu Miaomiao also said that Lu Mingfei, let alone having formal training, had not even received the most basic training and was a complete novice.
The left and right hemispheres of the brain are working together.
With the competition just around the corner, how could Teacher Su possibly believe Liu Miaomiao's explanation when they were looking for a complete newcomer?
So what is the truth?
Chapter 149 A Performance with Ice
Teacher Su assumed that Liu Miaomiao was indirectly refusing to participate in the competition with her nephew.
My nephew is of outstanding character and good looks, and his piano skills are comparable to some professional goalkeepers.
A child prodigy.
Teacher Su has a higher opinion of her nephew.
Her nephew wasn't originally from this music store; he just happened to pass by and fell in love with Liu Miaomiao at first sight, attracted by her beauty and temperament.
My lady, my gentleman is good.
Teacher Su watched Liu Miaomiao grow up and knew that Liu Miaomiao was a good girl. Since her nephew liked her, she was willing to play matchmaker.
In matters of the heart, besides economics, having common ground is equally important; otherwise, it becomes a business of procreation.
Teacher Su thought to herself, her nephew and Liu Miaomiao both come from very wealthy families, and they have the piano as a common language. If she puts her heart into it and persists, it shouldn't be difficult to win the girl's heart.
Therefore, when faced with Lu Mingfei's sudden appearance, Teacher Su did not put on a cold face, but she remained politely distant and handled things officially.
Lu Mingfei noticed Teacher Su's coldness, but didn't know why and didn't care.
He doesn't need any teacher at all; it's just a formality. He can invite her for tea soon.
Don't forget, he's the king of the piano.
Before we began, as was her custom, Teacher Su asked Lu Mingfei some basic questions to assess his knowledge.
Such as whether they have practiced the piano before, what level they are at in terms of exams, whether they know the treble and bass clefs, key signatures, time signatures, etc.
Lu Mingfei did not answer his test level question, but calmly answered Teacher Su's other knowledge-based questions, fluently and neatly.
Liu Miaomiao nodded in agreement, pleased with Lu Mingfei's attention; he must have done a lot of research last night.
Teacher Su was also a little surprised.
Theoretical knowledge is sufficient, but a competition is practice, not an exam.
Actually, Teacher Su herself had a bit of a headache. At first, she thought Lu Mingfei was completely clueless, and that she had to train him from a complete novice to a passable level who could participate in the piano competition at the end of August.
Twenty days or so, unless you're a genius.
Otherwise, it would be good if you could get the basics down in about twenty days, and being able to play "Children's Hanon" would be good enough.
Teacher Su instructed Lu Mingfei to sit on the piano bench. Since he could read the sheet music, he should try the simplest Hanon first. It was okay if he went slowly and made a few mistakes.
Lu Mingfei did as instructed.
Liu Miaomiao couldn't help but feel nervous, almost as if she were accompanying her child to an exam.
Keep it up, Mingfei!
Liu Miaomiao clenched her fist in self-encouragement.
Lu Mingfei looked at the black and white keys on the piano, smiled gently, and without even looking at the sheet music, began to play Hanon.
He didn't deliberately play any difficult tunes to show off; there was no need for that.
Anyone with eyesight can tell from someone's fluent and skillful playing, let alone an expert.
Liu Miaomiao and Teacher Su listened to the flow of the notes. The simple melody, the same piano, was enriched with a deeper meaning in the hands of the master, and it was all perfectly natural.
Teacher Su raised her eyebrows slightly, at least able to tell that Lu Mingfei was an expert.
It's possible that they'll only sing this one song.
So Teacher Su asked Lu Mingfei if he had ever studied the piano before.
Lu Mingfei said somewhat embarrassedly that he had learned it for a while when he was a child and his parents were on vacation in Hawaii, but his skills had become a bit rusty.
Teacher Su's lips twitched.
Practicing piano in Hawaii—what an odd combination.
Liu Miaomiao's cheeks flushed slightly, and she was secretly annoyed that Lu Mingfei had actually played a trick on her.
I didn't say that to Teacher Su yesterday. She said that Lu Mingfei had no foundation and hoped that Teacher Su would be lenient with him. She said that this child is diligent, serious, smart, reliable, honest, and handsome...
