The three of them walked into the store, and the wind chimes at the door of the store made a jingling sound as the door was opened.

The man turned to the sound of the wind chimes.

Su Yuli looked at him for a while, and suddenly recognized it, "You are, Professor Andrew?" ”

She remembers seeing him at the Christmas Eve party at Tracy's home, where he was a professor at the Illeman School of Art.

Andrew narrowed his eyes and remembered Su Yuli.

"Oh, it's the little girl who studied with Tracy. I've been a bit of a buddy lately, and I've listened to some of your game audios, and it's pretty good, a lot better than when I met you at Tracy's house that day. ”

Zola's grandfather was shocked when he heard this, "Is it actually Tracy Brown's apprentice?" Miss, you're really low-key, and everyone doesn't know about it. ”

Su Yuli smiled embarrassedly.

Su Yuli basically didn't mention in public that she was Tracy Brown's apprentice, according to Tracy's own words, Su Yuli had to rely on her own strength to win, and she was not allowed to swagger and deceive in her name!

But Su Yuli knew that what Tracy wanted to express was that if she put her name out too early, it might lead people to question that her honor was stained with her master's light.

Su Yuli looked at Andrew, "Professor, you also ordered a violin here?" ”

Grandpa Zola smiled and said, "Yes, he is one of my old customers, the last time you came over, the finished piano I asked you to try, was ordered by Andrew!" ”

He looked at Andrew again.

"This little girl listened to my granddaughter's performance, and came to me and said that she liked the sound of the piano I made. I ordered two at once. I said she was suitable for Italian spruce, but she said she liked the sound of the Alpine spruce. ”

After hearing this, Andrew looked at Su Yuli with a little more appreciation.

"It seems that we are very fateful."

Su Yuli smiled shyly.

At this time, Grandpa Zola took out two piano cases, opened them, and placed them side by side on the counter, looking at Su Yuli.

"Come, little miss, try the sound. The black one is made with Italian spruce, while the reddish-brown one is made with Alpine spruce. ”

Su Yuli nodded, and picked up one of the pianos and bow.

Raise your hand, and a melodious song flows.

After a song, Su Yuli put it down with satisfaction, and it was really a good piano.

Andrew on the side let out an 'oh'.

"How many notes do you seem to have changed?"

"Ah, yes."

Su Yuli scratched her head a little embarrassedly, "I suddenly thought of Grandpa Zora yesterday and told me that if you can know the range and harmony of a piano well, even if there is only one string left in the end, you can still insist on playing the whole piece." So try to change it yourself. ”

Andrew laughed and said, "You're quite exploratory, but the change you just made is not the best path, so I'll teach you a trick." ”

As he spoke, he took his instrument out of the case.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, an afternoon had passed.

Andrew is also a master-level figure, some of the music theory knowledge he shared, Su Yuli naturally didn't need to say it, Jiang Yubai also listened to it with relish, that is, Han Shiya listened to it for a few minutes, and simply fell asleep on the chair next to her.

Before parting, Andrew sincerely praised Su Yuli for her high talent and quick comprehension, no wonder Tracy had to take it back and put it by her side to train when she saw her.

Su Yuli also thanked Andrew gratefully for his teaching, and said that she hoped to learn from him next time.

After Andrew left, Jiang Yubai woke up Han Shiya with some amusement, and it was already late when the three of them walked out of the store together.

Su Yuli was satisfied with thinking that she had obtained two good pianos. turned his head and saw Jiang Yubai, but suddenly remembered the piano he had asked Jiang Xu to help him bring before.

"Did Jiang Xu give you the piano I brought you?"

When Jiang Yubai heard this, he looked at Su Yuli in a daze, he was helping Su Yuli carry another piano at this time.

"You're talking about the violin that makes a squeaky noise? The last time my cousin brought it to me, I thought he was going to beat me up with that broken harp. ”

The main thing is not that the violin is scary, but that Jiang Xu's expression is scary.

"Why did you give me a piano like that? The parts and components are basically damaged, and they can't be pulled at all. I also asked someone to identify it, and it wasn't an antique. ”

Su Yuli was also confused, "Isn't there often that kind of stabbing sound in your music?" I thought you liked the sound. ”

Jiang Yubai smiled, "My name is metal element, it's not the same thing as you think!" ”

Su Yuli shrugged, "Okay." ”

She really doesn't understand pop music, so she can't help it.

-

As the days passed, Jiang Yubai really didn't mention the matter of confessing to Han Shiya, but Han Shiya couldn't hold it back, so one night, she touched Su Yuli's bed again.

"Lili, look at Jiang Yubai's fool, he really didn't mention his confession!"

Su Yuli was woken up shortly after falling asleep, sleepy-eyed and confused.

"Ah...... Only...... Do you want him to mention it, or don't you want him to mention it? ”

Han Shiya lay on her back with her hands folded around her chest.

"I don't know, my mind is messed up."

With a snort, Han Shiya turned sideways and looked at Su Yuli with one hand on her head.

Su Yuli was wearing a white lace nightdress at this time, and for the sake of her image during the competition, she kept her hair long again, so that it was easy to tie and drape, which was convenient for styling.

Now, Su Yuli's long hair is scattered casually and lazily on the pillow, half-dreaming and half-awake and cute, as if she has changed back to the appearance of a little princess.

Han Shiya couldn't help but reach out and pinch Su Yuli's face.

"Forget it! Don't think about it for now, now your game is the most important, and when your game is over, I'll think of a way to solve this problem. ”

Su Yuli smiled and asked innocently, "What does it mean to solve this problem?" ”

This is not a tricky thing, Jiang is so good to the white, and he is single-minded to Shiya, Shiya is also interesting to others, to put it bluntly, isn't it just a matter of words.

Han Shiya didn't answer her words, her mind had already jumped to other things, "Anyway, Lili, the competition is coming soon, aren't you panicking?" ”

She was so nervous.

"It's fine."

Su Yuli's voice was soft and glutinous, mixed with sleepiness.

"Actually, when I first started participating in various competitions, I was quite nervous, but after more competitions, I didn't feel nervous."

Han Shiya sighed, "It's really worthy of being the queen of the violin." The Queen is mighty! Give your heart to the Queen! ”

Su Yuli woke up completely now, "I told you not to call me like this again!" ”

Han Shiya smiled evilly, "I can't stand it?" When you return home, maybe it's all over the gimmick of the violin queen, if you really can't listen to it, it's better to think of a title for yourself now, I helped you buy a water army brush. Fight to silence the violin queen's voice before you return home. ”

Su Yuli let out a long sigh, "Can't you just call me by my name?" ”

She doesn't have any experience in this area, how can she think of it.

"Okay, okay, go to bed first, go to bed first."

--

The time for the Carlin International Violin Competition is approaching.

Tracy's trip abroad seemed to be delayed, she called over and asked Su Yuli to go over there to compete, she finished the trip at hand and flew over directly, and then went there to meet.

Originally, the organizer of the competition invited Tracy to be a judge of this competition, but Tracy refused in order to avoid suspicion, and this time he watched the competition as an ordinary spectator.

This time, the competition was held in country Y.

On the day of the preliminary competition, Han Shiya and Jiang Yubai accompanied Su Yuli to the venue.

However, at the door of the competition venue, several people bumped into Tracy who was oncoming and Jiang Xu who was following her.

Jiang Xu saw Su Yuli, and his smile was like ice and snow melting.

"What a coincidence."

“……”

Su Yuli hadn't said anything yet, but Han Shiya was vigilant first. She asked in an unkind tone, "How did you end up here!" ”

Su Yuli came to Han Shiya's ear with a familiar car.

"He's an investor."

During this time, Jiang Xu jumped out from time to time to circle around her, and most of the excuses were this one. But because she asked him for the first time not to go in and affect her mood, he didn't go in every time, just waited for Su Yuli to come out at the door, and didn't pester her at all, so she couldn't say anything.

Su Yuli glanced at him, a little regretful, sure enough, she should have called Jiang Zhuoyi earlier and asked her to take Jiang Xu back.

She raised her legs and prepared to enter the arena, ignoring Jiang Xu as usual.

But I heard Tracy turn her head and say to Jiang Xu, "Jiang, you go to the position first, and I'll come over in a while." ”

Su Yuli's footsteps paused slightly, her brows furrowed, and she secretly thought in her heart, could it be that during this time, Jiang Xu coaxed Tracy well?

Jiang Xu didn't rush to respond to Tracy's words, but looked at Su Yuli, "Can I go in?" ”

Jiang Yubai heard Jiang Xu say this, and there was obvious surprise in his eyes, but he stood aside and didn't say anything.

“…… Whatever you want. ”

A trace of displeasure flashed in Su Yuli's heart, in front of Tracy, how could she say no, besides, Tracy had already opened his mouth to call him in just now.

Han Shiya was worried, she looked at Su Yuli and said in a low voice.

"Doesn't it affect your state if you let him in?"

Su Yuli's face was calm.

"No, it's not the first time I've participated in a competition, so I won't affect my state for the sake of an outsider."

No one noticed that Jiang Xu's steps had already taken stopped for a moment with Su Yuli's words. His eyes flashed, and there was no more obvious helplessness in his eyes.

But Su Yuli didn't pay attention to this, and she followed Tracy through the side passage into the concert hall used for the competition.

Tracy told her a little bit about the structure of the arena and which direction to go when playing, as well as a few other considerations.

Tracy sent Su Yuli to the backstage door and patted her on the shoulder.

"I won't go in, it's up to you to do the rest, just relax, don't put too much pressure on yourself. The players who can compete are very strong, and your goal is to get a place. ”

Su Yuli took a deep breath, "Okay! ”

"Also, one of your contestants this time is named Katerin. Her father was the president of the jury. ”

Su Yuli was stunned for a moment, looked at Tracy, and guessed that Tracy wanted her to curry favor with Katerin?

Tracy continued, "If you have time, help me taunt her, and say that I am very unhappy with her father's unscrupulous behavior. Garbage stuff. ”

“……”

Is it so exciting? Forget it.

After Tracy left, Su Yuli turned around and went to the waiting area from the special passage.

In normal violin competitions, the preliminary and semi-finals are self-selected repertoire, and this time it is the same.

When I arrived at the backstage preparation room, there were already many players waiting there, and the lights in the preparation room were not on, and the warm yellow lights gave people a soothing feeling.

She knows a lot of players here, after all, she has competed so many times, so she has seen a lot of them.

When they entered the preparation room, the players they had seen before greeted each other.

Su Yuli also smiled and greeted the contestants who came to greet her.

But now that it was the competition site, Su Yuli had no intention of socializing on this occasion, so she found a relatively remote position and sat down.

The game began, and the staff on the scene began to call in order.

Su Yuli kept her eyes down, lowered her head and habitually did pre-game psychological construction for herself.

A shadow suddenly appeared on the ground in front of Su Yuli, blocking the soft light in the room.
