Volume 2 Chapter 110 The Young Man in the Incense Flower Official's Manor (Middle)

  "I'm really noisy, right? Ah, no! What's with the 'I'm really noisy'?! I'm doing it for your own good!" Mingyue was about to continue speaking when I suddenly raised my right hand and covered his mouth: "It's fine now, just let me sit quietly for a bit."

  Her face turned red, Mingyue suddenly changed from her usual calm and collected demeanor to standing up abruptly and taking a few steps back. After being stunned for a while, she inexplicably responded with a sentence: "Oh, I won't speak, you rest well." Lazy

  I leaned back onto the sofa, took a deep breath and closed my eyes. Mingyue was quiet for about half an hour before she couldn't hold it in anymore and started nagging me: "I didn't think that the Huahua Boys' Club only had five members! One of them has already dropped out, another one is always playing the violin in the music room, and another one just sleeps all day... The only ones who can hold up the club are Lianruo and Mo. No wonder they can't compare to the Rose Club outside. I think first of all, we should expand our membership, recruit more people into the club, so when it's busy, we can switch out and take a breather, efficiency will increase many times over. And I think this building needs to be renovated, girls like beautiful things, we can try to do things according to their requirements."

  "You don't need to tell me these things, I'm no longer a member of the Xianghua Department. You and Kunyue Xiao can discuss this among yourselves. Your department has been operating until now without going bankrupt, so you must have experienced even greater setbacks than this. This small matter should be solvable."

  "After listening to him ramble on for half a day, I finally couldn't bear it anymore and casually spat out a sentence."

  Mingyue saw that I didn't want to bother with some disappointment and shook her head, suddenly starting to mutter: "Xiao Cha, when you left our college, you didn't even say goodbye to us. The student union leaders were all looking for you, and it was only later that the president told us you had transferred schools. Was it because you didn't like our college that you transferred? If... if Xiao Cha thinks we're too much trouble... we'll try not to bother you in the future, don't transfer, come back to our college, okay?"

  My eyelids didn't even twitch, and I sneered slightly, curling the corners of my mouth: "Is this what your great principal told you? Did she say that I transferred schools because I didn't like your college?"

  "Isn't it?" Mingyue's voice was filled with doubt.

  "Whatever you say is fine." This time, I simply shifted my entire body weight onto the soft sofa. He drove me out of Lanlos First Men's Aristocracy Academy and then told others that it was because I didn't like the academy myself, so I transferred... Haha, what a great principal indeed.

  The conversation ended and the whole living room became extremely quiet, Mingyue didn't speak, nor did the two people on the other side, only the beautiful sound of breathing was heard from each other's noses, swirling in the air, finally dissipating into clouds.

  As the moon waxes, my originally vigilant heart gradually relaxes and even starts to feel drowsy. It's always been like this - once I'm injured, I easily get sleepy and drowsy; perhaps after a good rest, the wound on my shoulder will heal. Even if it does, in the depths of my memory, I'll forever remember the mistakes I made this time: underestimating the opponent's strength, and being too easily swayed by others' words.

  When I opened my eyes again, it was almost evening. In the living room, apart from the three people earlier, there were two more. Those two were probably the other members of the Xunhua Department that Mingyue described. One was gently stroking a small violin on his knee, while the other was drinking tea to refresh himself. Mingyue stood with her hands on her hips, looking at them with an air of superiority and scolding: "As members of the Xunhua Department, you should prioritize your department as your main profession. How can you do other things (like sleeping or playing the violin)? Look now... this place used to be one of the top 10 departments, but now it's been squeezed into the bottom 10? Is this the achievement you're showing me? Is this the result of what the previous seniors taught you?"

  He took a sip of water and continued: "You know this is extremely shameful for our department (author's note: isn't being a gigolo already shameful???), doing nothing all day except sleeping and eating, and now you're even bringing over a broken violin. Are you trying to lose face for everyone in our department? If that's the case, then hand over your resignation letter right now and I'll give it to Master Xiao to handle."

  。”

  The young man stroking the piano turned pale as he heard this. My head was still a bit dizzy, and I stumbled forward to grab Mingyue's hand that was pointing at the boy, scolding him: "He likes it, let him be."

  "But we all gave up on the things we liked to gather in Xunhua Department, and many people have their own hobbies. We always have to sacrifice other things in order to do one thing well. Even I... also gave up my favorite martial arts to join Xunhua Boys' Department." Mingyue's voice trembled as he said this.

  I rubbed my eyes and stared at him for a while: "Do you like what you're doing now?"

  "I like it." Mingyue's head shot up quickly as soon as she heard this.

  "Turning his gaze to the young man beside him who was stroking the strings of his instrument, he asked: 'And you, do you like doing things in the Huā Fāng Gōng?'?"

  "I like..." The young man replied faintly.

  "How much do you like it? Do you like it more than your violin?"

  “…………”

  He didn't say a word when he saw me, so I shrugged and sat back on the sofa: "Hey, play a tune for me to listen."

  The young man was taken aback, and then looked up at Mingyue standing on the other side with a somewhat bewildered expression. Apparently, as someone of a higher level than him, Mingyue was their supervisor, so everything in the Xunhua department had to be approved by him before it could be done. Also, because Mingyue originally disliked his violin, now I made him play it in front of us, what if he gets angry...

  "You're just saying this for her sake." Mingyue was indeed somewhat angry, and she squeezed out a sentence in a stifled tone.

  The young man looked around awkwardly, seeing no one paying attention to him or giving him any hints. He carefully opened the lid of his violin case, holding it like a treasure and placing it under his chin. With a gentle pull on the strings, a series of delicate, distant, and lingering notes leaped out from beneath his bow, fluttering in the air before drifting away with the changing rhythm.

  Indeed it is... good melody, good technique.
