Chapter 18 Xu Ran's Musical Dreams

A huge passenger plane pierced the blue sky and roared to land at the Imperial Capital International Airport.

Xu Fuhai got off the plane, and an employee of the Industrial and Commercial Imperial Capital Branch came forward to pick him up and moved all the luggage he was carrying to the car.

The Imperial Capital Branch sent a Buick GL8 to pick up the airport, although the grade was average, but it was cleaned up and tidy, Xu Fuhai didn't care about these details, and Lin Mixue sat in the car and went directly to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel near the Imperial Capital Normal College to check in.

The hotel was booked in advance by the bank, of course, Xu Fuhai needed to pay for the cost. Although Xu Fuhai is not short of money now, he did not book any presidential suite, and only booked an executive suite. On the one hand, he came to the imperial capital to see that it was natural, and on the other hand, he was also ready to invest in some high-quality real estate here, since he was planning to buy a house, there was naturally no need to waste money on staying in a hotel.

The two of them settled down, ate a little food at random, and after returning to the room to rest for a while, they took the car arranged by the hotel and went straight to the Imperial Capital Normal College.

Imperial Normal University is a national double-first-class key university directly under the Ministry of Education, although it cannot be compared with famous universities such as Qingbei, but it is also a very good school.

Thinking of his daughter, Xu Fuhai's face unconsciously showed a trace of pride. From childhood to adulthood, although she grew up in such a family environment, her daughter is very well-behaved and sensible, and she has never let herself worry too much about her studies, from elementary school to junior high school, and then to high school, she has always been one of the top students in the school.

What is rare is that despite having such an incompetent mother, Xu Ran's character has not been affected by Zhou Na at all. From childhood to adulthood, she not only has excellent academic performance, but also has a cheerful and generous personality, mature and sensible, and is particularly tenacious. At this point, Xu Fuhai feels that his daughter is very much like himself.

"Lao Xu, you came to the imperial capital to see Ranran, didn't you call her in advance?" Sitting in the car, Lin Mixue asked with a smile.

"No, surprise her!" Xu Fuhai said with a smile.

"I didn't expect you, an old comrade, to know how to be romantic." Lin Mixue said with a giggle.

"That's a must, my daughter is my precious little lover." Xu Fuhai said with some smugness.

After the two registered at the school gate, the security guards let them go, and Xu Fuhai took Lin Mixue and walked slowly all the way around the university campus.

When her daughter Xu Ran started school, Xu Fuhai personally sent her, and later came twice in succession, so Xu Fuhai is still relatively familiar with the campus environment of Imperial Capital Normal University.

"This area is the teaching building of Ranran's college, there is a music building dedicated to their music department to practice, and there is a cafeteria not far in front of us, and we can taste the food there at noon later, I ate it last time, the taste of the rice bowl is very good, much stronger than that of the big restaurant outside!" Xu Fuhai took Lin Mixue and introduced it as he walked.

Beside the two people, there are college students dressed in youth and fashion from time to time, and occasionally middle-aged and elderly people who are about the same age as them, and the two of them are not conspicuous here, but Lin Mixue's beautiful figure still attracts the attention of some boys from time to time. There's no way, like hers, basically everywhere she goes, she will become the focus of men's attention. Compared with those young college students, this kind of mature charm to the bones is obviously more attractive to young boys.

Along the way, Xu Fuhai has seen more than one person pay attention to Lin Mixue, but fortunately, the basic quality of the students of Normal University is still quite high, and there has not been the kind of bloody scene where he took the initiative to talk to him for prestige.

"The front is the main building of the teaching building, I saw the class schedule sent by someone in the parent group of their class, there is an open class today, and then I should also go to listen to the class, let's go there to look for it, see if we can meet her?" Xu Fuhai looked at the teaching building in front of him and said.

"Well, I haven't listened to a college class yet, so it must be interesting." Lin Mixue said with some eagerness.

"Well, many people think that they can't hear anything real in the university's open classes, but this is also divided into who will speak, I heard that it is an associate professor of CCTV who came to give a lecture today, and it is still very powerful." Xu Fuhai said with some expectation.

"Brother Xu, I remember that Ran Ran's piano was very good at that time, didn't you once say that her professional classes could go to the conservatory? Why did you go to normal school later? Lin Mixue asked suddenly.

Hearing her words, Xu Fuhai sighed, this matter is an eternal pain in his heart, and it is also the place where he feels most sorry for his daughter.

"Yes, the piano level at that time, hard work can pass the art examination line of the Imperial Capital Conservatory of Music, but at that time, ......" Xu Fuhai remembered the quarrel between himself and Zhou Na in this matter, and shook his head.

Speaking of which, Xu Fuhai is also a literary and artistic old man, he liked to play the piano when he was young, worked for many years, and never gave up this hobby when he was busy. Influenced by him, his daughter Xu Ran began to practice piano since she was a child, and under the guidance of Xu Fuhai, she also practiced quite solid basic skills. Originally, according to Xu Fuhai's idea, he wanted her to be admitted to the conservatory of music, which was also Xu Ran's dream all along.

But in the matter of her daughter's college entrance examination volunteering, Zhou Na had a big dispute with Xu Fuhai.

Zhou Na believes that a girl is going to get married sooner or later, and there is no need to spend so much money to go to the conservatory.

And Xu Fuhai feels that his daughter Xu Ran has the talent to learn music and has the strength to go to the conservatory, so she should work hard to help her realize this dream.

At that time, Xu Ran's piano level had basically reached the professional line of the Conservatory of Music, which was the result of Xu Fuhai's more than ten years of teaching and sparring.

That's right, Xu Fuhai is such a person who silently plays his hobby to a professional level. There is a famous 30,000-hour rule on the Internet, which says that anyone who invests more than 30,000 hours in one thing will become a master in this field. And Xu Fuhai has been practicing for at least one hour a day for nearly 20 years, plus the time to take his daughter to practice, although it has not yet reached this standard, there must be more than 10,000 hours.

It's just that he doesn't take students with him, and he doesn't participate in performances, he just practices at home every day as his hobby. And Zhou Na doesn't understand that, every time Xu Fuhai plays the piano for a long time, she will still be noisy. Therefore, Zhou Na didn't know the fact that Xu Fuhai actually played the piano very well. In her opinion, Xu Fuhai plays this every day whenever he is free, and he can't earn a penny, so it's useless at all.

The only thing that can make her feel useful may be that her daughter Xu Ran learns piano and doesn't have to go outside to find a teacher. That's it, Zhou Na often sneered at Xu Fuhai, saying that he didn't teach as well as the teachers outside, and the teachers of a certain institution always took students to participate in performance competitions or something, and he won any awards, and he taught his daughter for so long, except for the certificate of the examination, he didn't win a single award.

Of course, Xu Fuhai can't explain to her, the amateur competitions held by those institutions are useless, and Zhou Na will not understand how high the gold content of the performance certificate of CCTV is, and the only criterion for her to evaluate whether a thing is useful is money.

Of course, the dispute between the two was not unexpected, and it ended with Xu Fuhai's defeat.

At that time, the financial power of the family was controlled by Zhou Na, and when the art examination was approaching, it was necessary to find a teacher from the central sound to take classes, and the tuition fee was more than 100,000 yuan. Originally, the family could have come up with the money, but Zhou Na was reluctant.

In this way, Xu Ran's dream of a conservatory of music was ruined.

Because of this incident, Xu Fuhai and Zhou Na had an unprecedented quarrel, showing unprecedented strength, but it was useless.

In the end, the sensible Xu Ran gave up his dream of applying for the conservatory of music and changed his volunteer to a teacher.

Thinking of this, Xu Fuhai's heart ached faintly.

"Lao Xu, everything is over, don't think about it. The school that Ran Ran is applying for now is also very good, and besides, your conditions are so good now, let her study music if she wants to continue to study music in the future. Lin Mixue looked at Xu Fuhai's face a little gloomy, and hurriedly comforted.

"Well, you're right, but this matter depends on what Ran Ran means, let's go, there is their big lecture hall in front, and we will also go to experience college life." Xu Fuhai said in a relaxed tone.

When he came to the teaching building where the big classroom was located, there were already students walking in groups outside, Xu Fuhai carefully looked for Xu Ran's figure, but did not find it.

When they came to the classroom, the two of them found a place to sit down, although most of the students in the classroom were young students, but there were also some older people from the society who came to listen to the class. There are not so many restrictions on this kind of open class, and as long as the people outside the school do not make trouble and do not seize the lecture resources of the students, there is generally no one to take care of it.

The classroom is very large, and the stairs are as far as the eye can see, and I am afraid that there are no 100 steps, and if all the seats are full, it is estimated that there will be more than 500 people. However, there were not too many people who came to attend the lecture, and there were only more than 200 people, and more than half of the seats were vacant.

"Why are you so many? Today's associate professor is a very famous associate professor of central sound, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't be dissatisfied. Xu Fuhai muttered to himself a little strangely.

"Maybe it's not time, a lot of people like to come to class time." Lin Mixue said, looking at the university classroom, her eyes were also full of novelty.

Xu Fuhai nodded, and was about to say something, when he suddenly found a familiar figure.

"Huh? That classmate who seems to be in Ranran's dormitory, what's it called? What is Xiao Jing, or Xiao Xing? Xu Fuhai looked at the girl in the light yellow dress and tried to remember.

As he tried to remember, the girl was already sitting in the row in front of him, still holding the phone in her hand.

"Minister Feng, don't worry, this little thing is wrapped up in my sister, don't you just fall in love with our family, don't worry, we will definitely take her with us for tonight's birthday party, but whether you can take it away depends on your ability, giggles."

Xue Xiaoxing was chatting happily on the phone, not noticing at all that behind her, a middle-aged man's face had sunk to the point of dripping.
