I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father Chapter 176

Chapter 176 – “Should I go in suit or something more casual.” (2)

Yes, she booked the music room but she didn't have the pull to have the teacher there as well. And, it was the legendary best music teacher at school at that.

“I happen to be here this afternoon and have some free time so I thought I would come and check out your practice.” The music teacher explained with a smile when she saw the stunned look on the students.

“It's fine. Just do your thing. I'll just sit over here. Just let me know if you have any questions or need me for anything.”

Professor Gu had contacted the school in person and hoped that they could give Gu Xi some pointers during her piano practice. Of course she would take it seriously.

Then again, Professor Gu also said to not give Gu Xi too much pressure. As such, the music teacher thought about it some and decided to give Gu Xi room to practice on her own. She would just stand by and give her some pointers from time to time.

After the teacher had left but before Gu Xi could start, Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi came too.

They said they were there to cheer Gu Xi on.

Except that, they also came with melon seeds, bottled water, chips, fried chicken, and cola. That was a bit much.

“You sure you are here to cheer me on?” asked Gu Xi with a blue look after glancing over at the two.

“We worry that you might get hungry so we came prepared,” said Gu Chenyi, a bit embarrassed.

Gu Xi, “……” Riiiiight.

Sure enough, even Gu Yanxiao rolled his eyes at Gu Chenyi and said, “You bought all of them. This has nothing to do with me.”

Having said that, Gu Yanxiao handed a lunch box over to Gu Xi and said, “This really is for you.”

A pink and cute little lunch box. It obviously came from the Gu family.

“Grandpa had Mother Zhou made you some snacks.”

Gu Xi was taken aback a little when she heard that. “Grandpa?”

“Don't tell me that Grandpa found out that I will be performing,” said Gu Xi with a stiffed look.

“You got it.”

In Old Mr. Gu's own words, he was the one who got her vote counts up a phone call and a text at a time.

Looking at Gu Xi's stunned look, Gu Yanxiao patted her on her shoulder while holding back his chuckle and said, “Grandpa said to tell you 'Good luck'.”

Gu Xi, “……” Why did she feel pressure all of a sudden?

“Let's get started then,” said the Art Committee girl as she pulled out a few sheet music that she had prepared earlier.

“I have taken a look at the list that you provided to me yesterday of the pieces that you had practiced in the past. Swan Song and Forever Night are more appropriate for a closing performance. I mostly recommend Forever Night.”

Nevertheless, these are mostly songs used for academic programs so they are not difficult overall, but they are also relatively plain.

“If we introduce some variation, it will improve the overall feel. Variations are difficult so I figured out a cheat for you.” The Art Committee girl blinked at Gu Xi and pointed at the modifications that she had made on the sheet music. “This part at the beginning was long without a lot of ups and downs so I removed all of it. When the time comes, just played a couple of notes and start over here.

“Play the first time through normally and vary it the second time. Meaning to pick up your pace.”

That would not be sufficient to trick anyone professionally but more than enough for those who don't know any better.

“It would sound amaze to regular audiences.”

Gu Xi nodded. She looked over the sheet music carefully and agreed that the Art Committee's idea was very slick.

“Specifically…..” The Art Committee girl looked at those sitting around and finally pointed at Gu Chenyi and said, “Gu Chenyi, can you do a demo for us?”

Gu Chenyi still has a piece of chip in his mouth right at this moment.

He, however, nodded with alacrity when called out by the Art Committee girl. “Sure.”

Gu Chenyi wiped his hands clean and rolled his sleeves up slightly.

The moment that he sat down in front of the piano, his entire temperament had changed.

The piano was being played and Gu Chenyi first performed a round at regular speed then, with one turn in note, picked up his pace.

He didn't even look at the sheet music on his second pass.

“He looks so attractive……” mumbled Dong Mingming next to Gu Xi.

As for the image of a certain someone having a piece of chip in their mouth, she chose to delete that image from her head permanently.

Gu Xi, too, nodded in agreement. There was surprise in the way she was looking at Gu Chenyi.

She knew that Lin Anxin had taken a lot of classes at the Lin's. Gu Chenyi and the others were nor forced into it, but also had taken a lot of similar classes.

It was no surprise that he knew how to play the piano. She just didn't know that he was so good at it.
