Chapter 12 A Song Just for Her Jin Shiming picked up the guitar, plucked the strings a few times, and tuned it skillfully. "Oppa, your sense of pitch is like a cheating talent!" Seeing that Jin Shiming could tune the guitar accurately without a tuner, Jin Sejeong was so envious. "Maybe I'm lucky. I was born with absolute pitch." Jin Shiming said with a smile. Perhaps due to good genes inherited from his parents, Jin Shiming was born with the ability of absolute pitch, and is able to distinguish the name and pitch of any note without being given a reference tone. As we all know, relative pitch can be acquired through the continuous accumulation of music theory knowledge and listening training, while absolute pitch is purely a gift from God and is almost impossible to acquire through acquired practice. Jin Shiming tuned up the guitar and gently plucked the strings. A lyrical melody soon flowed out from his fingers. It is a pity that Jin Shiming only has a guitar in his hand at the moment, and the tone is far less mellow and full than that of the piano. There is a reason why the piano is known as the "king of musical instruments". The piano's wide range of tones, huge changes in volume, and infinitely rich vertical and three-dimensional combinations of sounds are difficult to match by other instruments. But it doesn’t matter, if the accompaniment is not enough, the singing skills can make up for it! "The more I try to save you, the more sorry I feel~ In order not to give up, I gave up~ your beautiful youth~~~" Jin Shiming's voice is very clean, as clear as a trickle of water; his pronunciation, breathing, and resonance are all based on a science, making it difficult to find flaws.
However, behind his solid basic skills, Jin Shiming also possesses the ability to express emotions that is no less than that of famous singers. Kim Sejeong was immediately infected by the singing, immersed in it, and quietly savored the emotions conveyed by the song. "Look here, it has bloomed beautifully~ Even if you fall~ I will only let you walk on the road covered with flowers~~~" “Even if winter comes, my heart is full of the fragrance of spring~ because of the consistent~unfading love~~~” After Jin Shiming finished singing the chorus, he pressed the strings of the guitar with his palms. "Oppa, haven't you finished writing this song yet?" Kim Sejeong's eyes were already red, and sparkling tears could be vaguely seen. She liked this song very much. Both the melody and the lyrics sounded like they were written specifically for her by Jin Shiming. This song is not written for anyone else, but just for her, Kim Sejeong! "I only thought of the chorus of the song. I don't have any inspiration for the rest of the song yet." Jin Shiming looked at Jin Shizheng and said, "Shizheng, this song is my gift to you. You can compose the verse part!" After waking up from narcolepsy just now, Jin Shiming had this incomplete song in his mind. As long as he spent some time, he could complete the song, but he had a vague feeling that it might be more appropriate for Kim Sejeong to compose the rest of the song than for him. "Oppa, thank you, I love this song so much!" Jin Shizheng seemed quite emotional at the moment. She rushed into Jin Shiming's arms and sobbed softly, "No matter how long it takes, I will definitely complete this song, and then I will sing it for Oppa!" "Well, I'm looking forward to that day!" Jin Shiming stroked the girl's back and whispered soothingly. "Oppa, does this song have a name?" Kim Sejeong asked. "Let's call it "Flower Road"!" Jin Shiming said without hesitation. "Flower road? I like it very much!" The girl's face was red under her bangs, but she was reluctant to leave Jin Shiming's arms. It's allowed to act coquettishly once in a while, just once, right? Kim Sejeong bit her lower lip, determined to be willful for once, and leaned into Kim Semyeong's arms again, pressing her face tightly against Kim Semyeong's chest. She could clearly feel Jin Shiming's heartbeat in his chest, and at the same time she seemed to hear her own heartbeat getting louder and louder. Gradually, the beating sounds of the two hearts seemed to overlap, and it was difficult to distinguish one from the other. ……
After a while, Jin Shiming gently placed the girl who was sleeping soundly in his arms on the bed and covered her with a quilt. The girl, who usually had a smile on her face and was as bright and lively as the sun, completely took off her armor after falling asleep, and looked particularly weak and lonely. "Our Sejeong is still a child! You have worked so hard all this time!" Reaching out to wipe away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes, Jin Semyeong whispered good night, and tiptoed out of Jin Sejeong's room. When I came to the living room, Kim Sejeong's mother was still sitting on the sofa, trying hard not to go back to her room to sleep. Next to her, Kim Sejeong's brother Kim Do-hyun was holding a large pot of boiled ramen and slurping it up wildly. "Shiming, are you feeling better now? Do you want to go to the hospital?" When Jin Shiming's mother saw her, she immediately asked with concern. "Auntie, I'm really sorry for making you worry just now. I just didn't get enough rest in the past two days. I just took a nap in Shizheng's room, and I feel much better now." Jin Shiming replied. "You young people, none of you know how to take good care of your bodies!" Kim Sejeong's mother sighed and slapped Kim Do-hyun on the back twice, "Still eating! Still eating! You've almost eaten up all the food at home!" "Oh mom, I only had a bowl of rice tonight. I'll starve to death if I don't have a midnight snack!" Jin Daoxian protested with a grunt. "You only think about food every day. If you were as serious about looking for a job as you are about food, why haven't you found a job yet?" Kim Sejeong's mother said angrily. "Oh my god! It's hard to find a job nowadays, and I only have a high school diploma. I've sent out so many resumes but heard nothing!" Seeing that his mother was angry, Jin Daoxian immediately put down the ramen in his hand and said aggrievedly. When Kim Do-hyun graduated from high school this spring, his weight was not as exaggerated as it is now. The unsuccessful job search made him anxious, which led to his bad habit of overeating and his weight soared. "Shiming, I know this is very difficult for you. Can you find a job for Daoxian? If he continues like this, he will be ruined." Jin Shizheng's mother was in a difficult situation, but she still swallowed her pride and begged Jin Shiming for the sake of her son. "Auntie, you're too kind! Daoxian is my brother, who else should I help if I don't help him?" Jin Shiming replied. "Brother, please, let me do anything you ask me to do! I will work hard so that my mother and sister won't have to live under someone else's roof anymore!" Jin Daoxian begged with his head down. It is said that children from poor families grow up early. As the eldest son, Kim Do-hyun may not be very reliable on weekdays, but he must be eager to become the pillar of the family. Seeing his mother asking Jin Shiming for help on his behalf, Jin Daoxian wanted to slap himself twice for being so confused. He really should wake up! Jin Shiming thought for a long time, and suddenly thought of a job that was very suitable for Jin Daoxian: "Daoxian, have you heard of eating broadcasting?" (End of this chapter)
