Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 200: Chapter 200: Changes

They also wanted Song Xuan to be as independent as possible in his daily life.

This way, he wouldn’t become a burden to others, and he could live a bit more comfortably.

By now, it was late August, and the temperature wasn’t very high. Additionally, since today was cloudy with some wind, it was quite suitable for outdoor activities.

Therefore, Kang Li decided to hold today’s Erhu teaching session in the courtyard. Of course, Xiao Ming Rui and the other two were methodically doing their things in the yard as well.

Like listening to music and playing checkers, for instance.

At this moment, the trio of Xiao Ming Rui were seated around a small dining table playing checkers. Beside them, Kang Li’s voice was soft and slow as she explained the playing techniques of a new piece to Song Xuan and elaborated on the artistic conception of the piece in detail to the teenager.

”Okay, now Auntie will play it once. After you listen, try to play it according to the score. When you finish playing, Auntie will point out where you made mistakes.”

”...Okay.”

Song Xuan, handsome with eyes and brows, was approaching sixteen, about 175 cm tall, with fair skin. Dressed in a white shirt and army green trousers today, wearing a pair of white sneakers, his sleeves rolled up halfway, and his shirt tucked into his trousers, his disheveled hair was shiny and black, making him look clean and tidy. Had it not been for those who knew him, his particularity was now hardly noticeable.

This was certainly not a casual remark—For now, the boy could not only slowly start speaking but also occasionally showed a smile in front of Director Song, Mrs. Qi, and Kang Li, who was both his aunt and teacher, and the three little ones.

His smile was very clean and pure. If Kang Li had to describe it, the boy’s smile was like a warm little puppy.

Furthermore, the boy’s gaze was no longer as dull as before. There was a sparkle in his eyes. Although not as lively as a normal child’s, whenever the boy smiled, his eyes seemed to instantly gather the most dazzling colors, bright and particularly captivating.

”Listen carefully, Auntie is going to start.” As Kang Li’s voice fell, the piece ”Listening to the Pines” began to echo around the courtyard.

”Listening to the Pines” was an original composition by the folk artist Abing, a famous traditional Erhu piece.

The music expresses the sound of the pine waves and conveys a strong and unyielding character, firm confidence, and celebrates the Chinese people’s noble character, the iron-strong will of struggle, and the heroic majesty to overpower enemies as it lauds the national hero Yue Fei’s military prowess.

The entire piece was bold and vigorous, very forceful!

The reason for teaching the boy this piece—more precisely, the reason why Kang Li taught him traditional Erhu pieces—was simple. Should a suitable competition opportunity arise, the boy could definitely sign up and participate.

By performing on stage, with the music he played, he could tell everyone that even though he was different from normal people, he too was the brightest star in the night sky.

It wasn’t Kang Li being arrogant. After spending some time teaching the boy to play the Erhu, she was now fully convinced of his exceptional talent in playing the Erhu.

Put another way, the boy was quite sensitive to music. The pieces he listened to were especially easy for him to pick up.

As time slowly passed, and as Kang Li finished the last note on her side, the next moment, without waiting for Kang Li to speak, the boy began playing the piece in front of him, focused on the score.

Although there were deficiencies, the overall performance was quite good.

”Not bad, but there are a few obvious mistakes...” After the piece was played, Kang Li, holding the score, pointed out the mistakes as the boy stood up and approached her. Her voice was gentle and tender, unconsciously touching people’s hearts.
