Novel Full Chapter 35
Treat
Fang Yao did not expose Yuan Xiao and continued to patiently guide her on some basic finger techniques.
Fang Yao was very happy to see Yuan Xiao’s reaction. If she could be shy, did it mean that she also liked him? It did not matter if they were not together now. Perhaps now was not the best time. If Yuan Xiao wanted to study hard, he would accompany her to grow up slowly. One day, Yuan Xiao would accept him.
...Waves of piano music came from the classroom. Fang Yao was surprised by Yuan Xiao’s learning ability and said to her, “You’re quite talented. If you practice hard, you should be able to play grade six songs soon.”
What Yuan Xiao was worried about was practice. She said to Fang Yao, “Is there a piano room that’s open to the public on weekends? I can come to the classroom to practice when I’m in school, but not on weekends.”
“Yes, but it’s a little troublesome to find.” Fang Yao thought for a moment and continued, “Why don’t you come to my house to practice this weekend? I have a piano at home, and my parents are usually not at home on weekends.”
“I don’t think that’s a good idea.” Yuan Xiao was a little hesitant.
Fang Yao chuckled. “Why? Are you afraid that I’ll do something to you?”
“Who’s afraid of you!” Yuan Xiao rolled her eyes at Fang Yao. “Give me the address. I’ll go practice the piano this weekend!”
Fang Yao smiled and sent his home address to Yuan Xiao. He thought that Yuan Xiao’s awkward look was cute, and he cherished the time he spent with her.
“You can come anytime. My parents are going to a friend’s house this week and will be back very late,” Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao and said.
“Alright, I’ll try to reach piano grade 10 within a month!” Yuan Xiao secretly made up her mind. According to the System’s mission, if she reached piano grade 10, she could unlock more learning missions.
“There’s still hope for you if you practice diligently. Besides, I’m a teacher that can’t be hired with money.” Fang Yao felt that Yuan Xiao was indeed very smart. She had a comprehension ability that ordinary people could not compare to, and her ability to accept new things was extremely high.
Although there was some pressure, Fang Yao still felt that he had good taste. The person he liked must be the most outstanding and unique.
Time passed quickly in school. With Yuan Xiao’s encouragement, Li Chang’s grades also improved greatly. Li Chang’s family background was not bad. Her parents saw her improvement in her studies and generously rewarded her with a lot of pocket money.
“Xiao Xiao, I’ll treat you to a meal. Order whatever you want!” Li Chang waved the money in her hand and said happily to Yuan Xiao.
Yuan Xiao pulled Li Chang’s arm and said to her with a smile, “Have you heard of the saying, ‘One should never reveal one’s wealth’? Keep a low profile!”
“When my dad saw that my weekly test results had been improving recently, he couldn’t stop smiling. My mom also bought me a lot of clothes and bags.” Li Chang hugged Yuan Xiao and said excitedly, “My parents even wanted to treat you to a meal at home. They said that it must be very hard for you to tutor my results to such a high level!”
“A little,” Yuan Xiao said deliberately. “After all, your learning ability…”
“Xiao Xiao! Don’t laugh at me. Do you think everyone is as smart as you? Your grades are always number one!” Li Chang continued, “Xiao Xiao, with your grades, you should be able to get straight into University A!”
“Probably, but I still want to enjoy my high school life!” Yuan Xiao still had many learning missions to complete, so she still wanted to do them bit by bit.
“I think you can’t bear to part with someone, right?” Li Chang raised her eyebrows at Yuan Xiao. “Many people saw you practicing the piano with Fang Yao during your lunch break. However, Zhao Wen was dealt with too badly last time, so no one dares to gossip now.”
“And you’re still bringing it up?” Yuan Xiao pretended to be angry. “I’m just learning how to play the piano from Fang Yao. Don’t think too much!”
“Oh?” Li Chang smiled meaningfully. “Xiao Xiao, you really know how to find a teacher for yourself. Did you know that Fang Yao’s mother, Wei Lan, was a famous pianist both locally and abroad when she was young?”
“Is that so? No wonder Fang Yao can play the piano so well.” Yuan Xiao did not have much of an impression of Fang Yao’s parents. In her previous life, she knew that Fang Yao had an outstanding brother, so Fang Yao’s parents doted on him. This was also the main reason why Fang Yao’s grades were poor.
“Let’s go, Xiao Xiao. I heard that there’s a new eatery near the school. Although it’s not big, it’s delicious.” Li Chang pulled Yuan Xiao to the back street of the school.
When Yuan Xiao saw the signboard of the home-cooked restaurant, she confirmed that the restaurant Li Chang was talking about was opened by Shen Hai and Feng Mei.
Yuan Xiao did not say anything and walked into the restaurant with Li Chang.
After Yuan Xiao called out ‘Dad’ and ‘Mom’, Li Chang realized that she had come to the restaurant that Yuan Xiao’s parents had opened.
