Chapter 111: Transfer Student (1/2)

Master Leo quickly gathered his expression, turned and whispered to explain to the boy in the piano room to practice the piano seriously, ”Go, do high fingering exercises by yourself. you’ve been playing too much throughout summer vacation, and now you can’t play.”

The tall boy with chestnut hair never lifted his head and went to practice there.

Master Leo took them to the living room. Like all those who engage in art, he also has some hobbies of his own. As soon as he entered the living room, he saw that the entire wall was filled with his collections, hanging there. All kinds of exquisitely decorated silver plates, as well as crude and weird wood carvings, even an ashtray on the table is a semi-finished product of African crude wood carvings-maybe this is the finished product, but it looks distorted a little.

Tang Jinyu went over with Teacher Xia, sat there and carefully listened to his question, and answered obediently.

Master Leo and Teacher Xia had a good personal relationship, because Teacher Xia has always been mild-tempered, so when he saw Tang Jinyu, he restrained his temper and talked gently with him. After asking a few professional questions in a row, Leo found that this kid answered pretty well, and he could tell that he really liked the piano. He relaxed a little for a while and asked a few simple questions and chatted with the kid.

”Xiaoyu I want to ask you, if you don’t mind, why did you learn to play the piano in the first place?”

Tang Jinyu told the truth: ”In order to improve the flexibility in my fingers.”

Master Leo raised his eyebrows: ”Huh?”

Tang Jinyu was too familiar with this emoticon, and immediately added: ”Along with exercising the left and right brain balances…”

Teacher Xia didn't hold back and laughed, when he saw that they were looking at him, he immediately coughed: ”I'm drinking tea, you guys continue, continue.”

Master Leo shook his collar to maintain his aristocratic style, unaware of his old friend’s smile towards him as he talked and sat there in a suit with the child, ”Your answer is good, your an honest kid, your answer was more better compare to the others who just said that they wanted to participate in competitions and become famous. You must first play the piano for yourself, and you must integrate it into your life. For a lifetime, you don’t have to be practical to have fun.”

Tang Jinyu nodded immediately.

He knows! One of his favorite emoticons at the time was the one that Master Leo sprinkled a handful of roses to the audience at the recital, and the wording was ”Be Happy.”

Apart from answering questions, Tang Jinyu was looking at the teacher with a little excited expression.

Master Leo looked at him and said strangely: ”What do you keep watching me for?”

Tang Jinyu blinked, and felt like he was dreaming, ”I think it's amazing. I never thought I could see you in person one day…”

Master Leo was proud of himself, but he did not show it on his face. He has seen too many little piano players working hard for him throughout their childhood. These people have grown up listening to his music since they were young, so of course they admire him very much!

All in total, he was still very satisfied with this new student.

He also put a piano in the living room and asked Tang Jinyu to play a short piece of music, wanting to hear his level.

When Tang Jinyu was playing the piano, from the corner of his eye he saw a figure flashing by in the corridor, and was a little distracted, but he quickly stabilized himself and he finished that short period of play.

Master Leo treats him much more loosely than the boy in the piano room before, nodding his head and saying: ”It's not bad. I can see that you usually have strict training. I believe that Xia's requirements for you will not be better than that of the boy in the piano room. You are still young, so your lessons are going to be at least five or six hours a day. As far as the amateur level is concerned, what you can do is not bad. In the future, I will put forward more stringent requirements for you, so you must be mentally prepared.”

Tang Jinyu nodded and hurriedly agreed, ”Thank you teacher!”

Master Leo looked at him for a while, then deliberately suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth, and said, ”Also, we will meet often in the future, so just treat me as your teacher. You don't have to be too nervous when you see me.” He thought that since that kid was performing in front of his idol that he made a mistake.

”Okay!”

After chatting for a while, Teacher Xia took Tang Jinyu away first. Master Leo said that today was regarded as an official apprenticeship, by getting to know him and letting him play the piano for a bit. However, when he saw him roll up his sleeves and heard him yell from the piano room when he came in just now, Tang Jinyu felt that he was going back to beat his nephew.

Master Leo also gave him a music bookto encourage him to go back and practice well and look forward to their meeting next week.

Tang Jinyu took it, knowing that this was his homework for next week, and nodded earnestly. He was still a little excited, and before he left, he asked Master Leo to sign his book

Master Leo feels very comfortable. The other little piano boys generally did not dare to come up to him whenever they saw him, and would just follow their parents and say nothing. The one Mr. Xia brought today was very different, it was best to be bold and show it! He swiped a few strokes and signed his name generously, and then told him: ”Next time you can come directly, you can come after nine in the morning on the weekends.”

Tang Jinyu nodded repeatedly. When Master Leo shook hands with him, he was shaking with excitement as they both held hands.

Oh my goodness, a living emoticon!

The emoticon master shook hands with him, life is really amazing!
