Chapter 16: Best Friends

A plane landed at Cloud City Airport.

Xiang Qing stood in the crowd of people who picked him up, his mood was not beautiful, and his delicate face like a peony flower was paved with a layer of anger.

The flow of people at the pick-up gate suddenly increased, and Xiang Qing knew that Gong Yi's flight had arrived, so he cheered up and searched for the long-lost figure in the crowd.

It wasn't until the crowd dispersed that Xiang Qing finally saw Gong Yi: wearing a light blue dress of retro linen, with a fairy aura floating towards her.

"Xiang Qing!" Gong Yi greeted Xiang Qing warmly.

He is less than thirty years old, but he has a calmness that does not match his age, the heavenly court is full and round, his body is not tall, not short, not fat, not thin, and exudes a fresh and righteous atmosphere.

"Gong Yi, it's good to receive you, I haven't seen you for ten years, I'm still worried that I won't recognize you!" Xiang Qing was not joking, but really relieved.

"How can you not recognize it? It's only been ten years, will I age so fast? Gong Yi joked with a smile.

"How not? In the past ten years, your status in the domestic zheng world has been a thousand miles away, but you are no longer the Gong Yi of ten years ago, your appearance has not changed at all, but your aura is not the same as ten years ago, Gong Da performer. ”

Being praised by Xiang Qing, Gong Yi's smile became even brighter, and he pointed at Xiang Qing and shook his head: "Look at your mouth, you were born to eat the broker's bowl of rice, no wonder our Ozu was marketed by you overseas, and it can be regarded as a flower in the wall and a fragrance outside the wall." ”

"You know why Ozu went overseas to develop, now that he is married, you postponed your concert and made a special trip to attend his wedding, which can be regarded as your conscience."

Xiang Qing said, pulled Gong Yi's suitcase and walked out.

Xiang Qing has always been quick to talk, but Gong Yi's mood at the moment is very complicated.

The car departed towards the hotel where Gong Yi was staying.

In the passenger seat, Gong Yi fell into deep thought.

Ten years ago, Qin Xiaojin gave up the senior high school art examination and went overseas in order to give him the entrance qualification for the guzheng major of the top music academy in China.

He was a student of Professor Qin Hu.

In the social background of poverty and wealth, learning art is a rich man's thing, and he, as an authentic poor student, will worship Professor Qinhu by chance.

Professor Qin Hu is a well-known guzheng artist at home and abroad, the daughter of Mr. Qin Chuan, the master of the cloud zither family, and the director of the Chinese music department of the top music academy in China.

He was caught by Professor Qin Hu, who served as a judge, in a guzheng competition, and then threw an olive branch to him.

With the 300 yuan of class fees made up by his family, he stepped on the train to study in Cloud City, and the sad thing is that the 300 yuan of class fees were stolen on the train.

Fortunately, Professor Qin Hu not only exempted him from class fees, but also provided him with food and lodging, and subsidized his train ticket home.

In this way, he received the grace of his teacher, from a young boy to a young adult.

During this period, he not only formed a deep teacher-student friendship with Professor Qin Hu, but also became a close friend with Qin Xiaojin day and night.

In his junior year of high school, Qin Xiaojin gave up the art examination and went overseas, which became an eternal debt to Gong Yi's heart.

It is the dream of every Zheng boy to be admitted to the guzheng major of the top music school, and there are very few Zheng children who can realize their dreams, often exhausting all the energy of their families, and its difficulty is no less than that of Tsinghua University and Peking University.

The enrollment quota for undergraduates majoring in Guzheng at Yuncheng Conservatory of Music is generally six, and there are four students in the Guzheng major attached to the Conservatory of Music, because they have received professional, systematic and scientific learning of Guzheng professional skills from the beginning of the junior high school.

In other words, out of the six places, there are actually only two places that can be competed for by candidates in society.

Technically speaking, Gong Yi and Qin Xiaojin were both taught by Professor Qin Hu, and their level was comparable, and it was not impossible to take the remaining two places together, but Qin Hu was not the only professor in the Chinese Music Department, and other professors also had powerful candidates in their hands.

Qin Xiaojin's departure was to fulfill him.

Gong Yi will always remember Qin Xiaojin's quarrel with his father before he left, and what he said to his father has been echoing in Gong Yi's ears for the past ten years:

"Just because I am a child of a family, and because the student of my aunt's colleague bought a painting worth six million from the dean's wife's gallery! So we are predestined? Either you have a family or you have money, so this is art? ”

"It's society." Qin Shanhai is serious and long-hearted.

"There can be unfairness in society, but there must also be a little justice, if the society is unfair to Gong Yi, then I will give my fair share to Gong Yi, because I am Gong Yi's best friend, I know how Gong Yi practiced hard since he was a child, he sat in the yard to practice on snowy days!"

At that moment, Gong Yi was standing outside the door, listening to Qin Xiaojin's eloquent words, his heart fluctuated, and there were tears of emotion in his eyes.

Death for a confidant.

Qin Xiaozu is his confidant.

The Qin family wants to protect Qin Xiaojin, Qin Xiaojin wants to protect him, and why doesn't he want to protect this friendship?

Gong Yi decided to give up the exam, quietly packed his bags and went to the train station, Qin Xiaojin chased him to the train station and said to him: "I can have many ways to retreat, but you have no way out, you can't live up to my aunt's training for you for so many years, you can't let all the poor students who want to take the road of art lose confidence, you have to light a lamp of hope for them, we will guard justice together!" ”

Gong Yi still thinks of that scene ten years ago, and when he thinks of the passionate words that the nineteen-year-old boy said to him, he will have tears in his eyes.

Ozu left the way ahead to him and went to take a retreat by himself.

And Xiang Qing is Ozu's retreat.

Gong Yi shook his head, shaking off the tears in his eyes, he turned his head to look at Xiang Qing who was driving, and said with a smile: "Xiang Qing, I always thought that if I attended Ozu's wedding one day, the bride at the wedding would be you, but I didn't expect that I misunderstood the relationship between the two of you." ”

Which pot is not opened, Xiang Qing is bitter in his heart, but he still smiled and said: "Your artistic brain is a lack of tendons, Ozu and I are business partners, we are like siblings, have you ever seen anyone marry your siblings?" ”

Xiang Qing found that his duplicitous rank was so high.

Gong Yi smiled when he heard this, "It would be great if this was the case, I'm really worried, I'm not only here to attend Ozu's wedding, but also responsible for soothing your wounded heart." ”

I haven't seen him for ten years, and now Gong Yi is no longer the young man who is a little sad because of his poor family, he has become more confident and can talk and laugh with others, it seems that he has really achieved great success in his career.

"Ozu got married, I thought you were the one who fell out of love!" Xiang Qing smiled and parked the car at the door of the hotel lobby.

Gong Yi couldn't help laughing.

"I stay in this hotel, huh? Is Ozu waiting for me at the hotel? Gong Yi asked.

Xiang Qing replied with a little annoyance: "No, he and his bride went to try on dresses." ”
