Watching the frustration and helplessness on the boy's face, Qianxun reached out to touch his shoulder, "Sis supports you!"
Hearing this, Su He's eyes widened instantly and he stammered, "Sis, what, what did you say?"
"I said, I support you in learning music! But I have one condition, as long as you can do it, I'll persuade Mom and Dad, and I'll buy you all the guitar music sheets you want!" Qianxun said.
Although in Da Xia, the occupation of a Dancing Girl was only a lowly job for nobles' amusement, the times had already changed.
Now those who sing well and dance excellently are called singing artists and dancers, and their status couldn't be compared to those from a thousand years ago.
Since Su He has musical talent, then let him study it.
But if he's to learn, he has to strive to be the best!
At this moment, Su He was so excited he was almost jumping.
He hugged Qianxun's arm and fidgeted around her like a little monkey, "Sis, are you serious? Can I really have a guitar?"
He had dreamt of having his own guitar!
But he couldn't afford it.
"Of course, but my condition is that you must get into Nanyang High School in next year's middle school exams. At that time, I'll buy you the best guitar and send you to the best music school in the city!" Qianxun looked at his excited face.
At her words, Su He immediately deflated like a pierced ball, wilting, "Sis, the middle school exams are only a year away; how could I possibly get into Nanyang High School in one year?"
The annual admission score for Nanyang High School is scarily high.
Only a straight-A student like my sister could get in easily.
"Do you have so little confidence in yourself? Do you want to wait until after you're famous to be mocked for not having an education, just a middle school graduate?" Qianxun immediately replied.
At this, Su He's eyes lit up as he looked at her, but his focus was not on education, "Sis, do you believe I'll become famous?"
"Of course, how could my talented little brother not become a sensation?" Qianxun seriously said.
Hearing this, Su He clenched his fist again, took a deep breath after a moment, and nodded, "Sis, I'll listen to you, I'll study hard!"
Seeing Su He agree, Qianxun then smiled, "That's more like it. After school, I'll tutor you, and on weekends, you can take lessons at the music school."
Hearing Qianxun's words, Su He was surprised and couldn't help but express his concern, "But Mom and Dad..." Will they agree?
Qianxun immediately replied, "Don't worry, leave that matter to me."
"Sis, you're the best! I just love you to bits!" Su He, thrilled, threw himself at Qianxun.
Seeing this, Qianxun quickly put her hand on his head to prevent his bear hug, "Stop it, if you promised me, you need to take action, understand?"
"Don't worry, I definitely will!" Su He then realized what he had just said and blushed to his ears.
"Mhm, I believe in you," Qianxun said with a smile.
In the evening, Su Hao came home from work.
Seeing the bandage on Qianxun's head, his expression tightened, and he quickly approached to ask what happened.
Though a stepdaughter, Su Qianxun had been well-behaved and sensible since she was young, and with Su He being so rambunctious, Su Hao cared for Su Qianxun even more than for his own son when compared.
But after Su He ran away from home in his previous life, Su Hao aged as if by a decade or so overnight, wandering outside everyday looking for his son.
It was only when he fainted on the street and was taken to the hospital that he learned he had late-stage cancer.
Until his death, Su Hao never saw his son again.
