He was very nervous and hesitant before offering to accompany An Ran to class, but once he actually did it, Shi Jian found that it was not difficult at all. It was as simple as the countless times his mother had accompanied him to training classes when he was a child. The only difference is that before, the person waiting in the lounge to drink tea, browse the phone, read books and eat desserts was his mother. Now, there is a different person accompanying her, and the role has changed. The person waiting in the lounge to drink tea, read books and eat desserts is himself. As soon as An Ran arrived at the piano store, she was embraced by the affectionate Teacher Qin. Shi Jian could only look at the backs of An Ran and Teacher Qin hugging each other as they walked to the piano room, and went to the lounge with the warm hospitality of the front desk clerk next to her. He didn't check his phone. After eating a piece of tiramisu specially prepared by the piano store, Shi Jian quietly opened his schoolbag and started doing his homework. He was as focused as An Ran who was practicing in the piano room. "Doing homework." An Ran pinched her arm and pushed open the door of the lounge. "Are your hands sore from practicing for too long?" Shi Jian stood up immediately when he saw An Ran come in. "No." An Ran shook her head, "I was a little nervous when practicing the piano just now." "Worried about the performance at the party?" Shi Jian thought it was not necessary but couldn't help but speculate. Seeing his cautious look, An Ran chuckled, "I'm worried that you'll be too bored waiting here alone."
She wasn't nervous at all when she went to the competition in Warsaw after her rebirth. A small school performance certainly didn't stir up any waves in her emotions. "Ah?" Shi Jian was stuck. Seeing his confused look, An Ran smiled and asked, "It's not boring, is it?" "No, no." After realizing what An Ran had just said, Shi Jian suddenly felt her ears burning. She couldn't help but hurriedly pack up her books and homework. "It's not boring. I'm almost done with my homework. We can check it if you need it." "No need to check it." An Ran didn't feel panicked. She just thought Shi Jian wanted to leave here quickly. "I don't have any plans tomorrow. I will concentrate on studying at home. I've been busy all day today. It's almost time to get ready for dinner." "Oh, okay, sure." Shi Jian nodded repeatedly and packed her schoolbag quickly. Jincheng gets dark quickly in winter. After saying goodbye to Teacher Qin again, I left the warm piano store. As soon as I opened the door, the cold wind blew my clothes away. Shi Jian stepped in front of An Ran and said, "You go in and wait. I'll go get a taxi." "Oh..." An Ran, who was about to turn around and go back to the piano store, suddenly remembered that this was not the era when mobile taxi apps were widely used. "I'll go with you." She led Shi Jian to the roadside first, and Shi Jian had to put on his schoolbag and follow her quickly. "Is the food tasty?" Not long after meeting Mr. Zeng, dishes were served in the private room one after another. I thought Mr. Zeng, who was rational and doubtful at the exhibition, would bring a few more people to dinner in the evening, but unexpectedly, he only brought his secretary and driver, and the two of them had their meal in the hall outside the private room. He was the only one sitting in the box eating with An Ran and Shi Jian. I don’t know if it was because of An Ran and Shi Jian’s age that made him feel relaxed, but Mr. Zeng talked obviously more during the meal than during the day, and the topic did not entirely revolve around work. "We can. Are you used to it?" An Ran and Shi Jian looked at each other. "Sure." Mr. Zeng picked up a salt and pepper shrimp with his chopsticks, "I can basically eat anything except animal organs." 1314 (End of this chapter)
