Chapter 1674: Never Delay Progress
Chapter 1674: Never Delay Progress
"Hmm...don't put it too deep, or I'll vomit."
"Okay, okay, then I'll adjust it. How about this?"
"Well, that's much better..."
Their conversation drifted out through the half-open door of the piano room and landed right in the ears of Li Mei, who was walking down the hallway.
This somewhat intimate conversation made Li Mei's face turn red instantly.
No way, right?
Is it what she thought?
Many students have gone home for the holidays today, and only a very small number of people are practicing the piano.
College students seek to eat chicken.
Maybe it really is...
Thinking of this, Li Mei immediately quickened her pace and went to find the source of the sound.
So exciting in the piano room so early in the morning?"
He tiptoed to the door and peeked inside secretly.
But all he saw was Jiang Cheng feeding Zhou Ying Tremella soup with a spoon.
There was a half-empty thermos bowl on the table, which was not an exciting scene at all.
Just as she was lost in thought, Zhou Ying happened to look up and saw her, and stood up somewhat awkwardly.
"Good morning, Professor Li."
Li Mei said in a somewhat concealed manner, feeling embarrassed: "Zhou Ying, the emotional processing of your version of 'Narrative Song' is still too shallow. Practice it twenty more times. I will check it later."
Seeing that the sweetness of the kiss was interrupted, Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked over.
There was a middle-aged woman with a bun standing at the door. She was wearing a tight black knitted turtleneck sweater and a well-cut long umbrella skirt.
The meticulous look on her body made the expression on her face seem very serious.
At first glance, Jiang Cheng had an illusion that the scene seemed to be him taking Zhou Ying back to high school when they were dating in class and were caught by the head teacher.
To be honest, Jiang Cheng hasn't felt this way for a long time.
So, as a person, you still need to fall in love more often to keep your mentality young.
"Isn't this classmate from our department?"
Hearing this, Zhou Ying tightened her grip on the spoon, and the tips of her ears turned red.
They looked like they were caught in a relationship by the teacher. Jiang Cheng couldn't help but curl his lips at the cute look.
Jiang Cheng took the initiative to speak: "Hello, Professor Li, I am Zhou Ying's boyfriend, my name is Jiang Cheng."
Seeing Jiang Cheng stand up and nod politely, Li Mei subconsciously looked Jiang Cheng up and down.
First, I glanced at the watch on his wrist, although Jiang Cheng was wearing a Richard Miller today.
But even so, Li Mei did not think that the watch he wore was a cheap brand, like some young people.
When she was young, she often went abroad to compete and saw many big scenes.
Then it fell onto his LV shirt with a smooth collar.
The shirt cuffs were casually rolled up to the forearms, revealing the distinct lines of the wrist bones, but without any sense of sloppiness.
The most important thing was that Jiang Cheng met her gaze without dodging.
Li Mei is a well-known strict teacher in the department, and many students will subconsciously feel a little unnatural when they see her.
But Jiang Cheng's eyes were clear but not sharp, and there was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
It's neither the humility of trying to please nor the arrogance of youthful vigor, but rather the confidence cultivated from being immersed in a relaxed environment since childhood.
Even his standing posture exudes a sense of nobility, as if he can remain calm no matter what the situation.
"Jiang Cheng, right?" Professor Li's voice was cold, and his fingertips unconsciously stroked the wood grain of the piano room door frame.
In fact, she had not planned to come to the piano room, but when she passed by, she saw a Cullinan parked in front of the piano room door, which she had never seen before, so she walked in to take a look.
"When I came in just now, I saw a Cullinan parked next to the piano room building. The license plate starts with Shanghai A-ZC. Is this car yours?"
After saying this, Zhou Ying looked up at Jiang Cheng.
I remember that at the auto show before, the Ferrari Jiang Cheng bought also had a license plate starting with Shanghai AJC, so the car Li Mei was talking about must be Jiang Cheng's.
"Did you buy a new car again?"
Jiang Cheng didn't hide it and nodded frankly: "I thought you would need a suitcase later, right? So I bought one."
In fact, it was just enough to accommodate the twin sisters.
But since Zhou Ying asked this, he couldn't just tell the truth.
Hearing this, Zhou Ying's eyes suddenly lit up. If Li Mei hadn't been here, she would have thrown herself into Jiang Cheng's arms immediately.
Seeing Zhou Ying's aroused expression, Li Mei sighed helplessly.
At this moment, her expression was serious but a little more complicated.
When she was young, she was also an outstanding pianist in the school.
Naturally, I have also experienced the same things as Zhou Ying at this age.
Over the years, she has seen too many promising young people being hindered by the glitz and glamour of the outside world.
Zhou Ying's musical sense and fingertips talent are the unpolished gems that she values most in recent years.
She was really afraid that she would be delayed by love.
But what can she do? College students are free to fall in love.
I was originally thinking about telling Zhou Ying not to be blinded by the glitz and glamour, and I was just trying to find time to tell her that.
But it's probably no use saying it now.
Zhou Ying said another word, which means Jiang Cheng has more than one car.
This kind of wealthy second generation probably can't be given up just by a few words from her.
After a few seconds of silence, Li Mei could only point to the thermos bowl in Zhou Ying's hand and said, "Eat the Tremella Soup while it's hot. I'll come to listen to you practice 'Narrative Song' in twenty minutes."
Hearing this, Zhou Ying glanced at Jiang Cheng.
Before Li Mei could finish her words, she took a half step forward.
His back was straight, but his eyes were bright as if filled with stars, without any shyness or evasion.
She clasped her hands in front of her, their fingertips lightly touching. Her voice was clear and frank. "Professor Li, I've taken note of your request for extra practice, but I've already asked for leave. I have to fly right after practice. So, I can check in with you via video when I get home tonight. If that's inconvenient for you, I can also record it in advance and send it to you, so it won't delay your progress."
At this time, Zhou Ying tilted her head slightly, with a slight smile on her lips.
Zhou Ying has this advantage.
She always expresses her opinions and demands openly.
Even the rejection and negotiation were done with a sense of openness.
Don't put yourself in a difficult position, and don't make others feel embarrassed.
This was not the first time Jiang Cheng had seen her like this.
It can be seen that Fang Yuan taught her very well since she was a child.
If this scene happened to children from ordinary families, they might have to struggle for a long time to refuse, or they might not have the confidence to say "check in via video".
But Zhou Ying was different, although she knew that if she rejected Li Mei, she might make her uncomfortable.
But she still refused.
Moreover, Zhou Ying neither deliberately lowered her posture nor appeared tough when she spoke.
Instead, it felt like discussing trivial matters with a familiar elder.
To be honest, a woman like her should move up to the upper circle. She doesn't have the appeal of the lower-level people.
But always with a kind of self-motivation to make yourself more
Li Mei looked at her frank appearance, and the words "think about it again" that were on the tip of her tongue suddenly disappeared.
Beauty is sometimes really a very useful thing.
Especially someone like Zhou Ying, who is good-looking and knows how to act coquettishly.
A woman who makes an expression that doesn't make her feel disgusted can usually get twice the result with half the effort.
Li Mei tapped the lesson plan lightly with her fingertips, and the seriousness in her tone gradually softened.
With a bit of amusing indulgence: "You can adjust the time, but don't stay up too late to practice the piano at night. Send me the adjusted time later, and I will watch you check in."
Hearing this, Zhou Ying immediately put on a happy expression.
He narrowed his eyes and spoke in a lighter voice, "Thank you, Professor Li! I promise to finish before ten o'clock and never stay up late. Don't worry, I'm obedient."
