"It’s such a coincidence. How wonderful it would have been if I could have met you back then." Huo Jincheng hugged Lu Xingzhi, "We missed out on six years."
"If we really had met back then, we probably would have just been like a mentor and junior relationship. Would you have liked a twelve-year-old girl at that time?" Lu Xingzhi quickly dispelled Huo Jincheng’s thoughts.
"Zhi Zhi, sometimes it’s not good to be too blunt. It makes me very embarrassed." Huo Jincheng thought that if he had really met Lu Xingzhi back then, he probably wouldn’t have had any thoughts anyway!
But, once she grew up, maybe he would have had thoughts afterward.
"I remember back then, there was a piano concert at Mars Square. Did you perform on the piano there?" Huo Jincheng suddenly recalled.
"Yes!" Lu Xingzhi nodded, "It was also then that I met my teacher. At that time, with a little sister’s permission, I played a piano piece too. Maybe because I played so well, the teacher discovered me."
Huo Jincheng gave a helpless smile; so they were so close back then.
But not too much of a pity.
"Let me tell you! The teacher insisted on taking me as a student." Lu Xingzhi proudly raised her head, "Although I have the looks, it’s my talent that really counts!"
"I know, our Zhi Zhi could get by on looks, but chooses to rely on talent." Huo Jincheng said with a smile.
"I want to sleep now."
"Go to sleep!" Huo Jincheng put down the photo album, picked up Lu Xingzhi, and laid her on the bed.
"Good night!" Huo Jincheng kissed her on the lips before wrapping his arms around her waist and lying down.
These days Helian Xi seemed to be on a roll, as Gu Jin Yan pursued her relentlessly, and truth be told, she quite enjoyed it.
Moreover, her most disliked Shen Xinzhu was not having much luck these days, either. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novelFirｅ.net
Shen Xinzhu being unhappy made Helian Xi very happy.
Eventually, Shen Xinzhu sought out Cheng Zhiyan, and they arranged to meet at a bar.
Shen Xinzhu arrived first. She wanted Cheng Zhiyan’s help today, so after arriving, she poured some wine on herself.
She didn’t know that everything she did was recorded by a camera.
Many photos were taken as well.
When Cheng Zhiyan arrived, he smelled the scent of alcohol and frowned, "Xinzi, how much have you had to drink?"
"Zhiyan, you’ve arrived? I’m unhappy, I feel so bad. Do you know? My life has been really awful lately, absolutely miserable..." Shen Xinzhu said, downing another glass of wine.
"Don’t worry, those online news articles will blow over soon." Cheng Zhiyan snatched her glass away, "Stop drinking, look at you, do you still have the image of the piano goddess? Aren’t you the one who cares most about your public image?"
"Why should I still be a piano goddess? Lu Xingzhi has already crushed me into dust. What’s so good about her? Why do people think she’s better? She’s just luckier than me. I rely on myself. And she, she relies on men. It’s all just a pretty face."
Cheng Zhiyan sighed, unwilling to see her , "Xinzi, you will get back on your feet. You’re so talented, there’s no way you can lose to her."
"You’ll help me, won’t you?" Shen Xinzhu looked at Cheng Zhiyan with tears in her eyes, full of hope.
"Yes. I will help you."
