Chapter 138 135. The stage and performers under the fireworks world

"explain."

Qin Yong was afraid that Li An would not raise conditions.

"In the next few months, I want to take one fixed day off every week."

Li An originally planned to discuss this issue with Qin Yong after this vacation.

Because of his preparation for the competition, he needs one day a week to devote himself to piano practice.

Maybe he won't hit a note all day long, but he must have a day like this where he can sit in front of the piano and calm down, even if it's just thinking.

With a new position, a new semester, and a new identity, his life in the second half of the year is bound to become even busier.

He is not a professional pianist, and he does not have the capital to just stay in front of the piano every day.

But since he decided to participate in this competition, he had to go all out.

Regarding Li An's second request, Qin Yong thinks it's okay. Firstly, teachers in this industry do not have normal weekend vacations. Secondly, Li An is now considered the core member of his team.

"Can."

Qin Yong leaned up and nodded, "Are there any plans for the second half of the year?" He was a little curious.

Ang Lee explained: "I plan to participate in the Xinghai Cup National Piano Competition at the end of the year."

Hearing the words "Xinghai Cup National Competition", Qin Yong's eyes flashed with a strange look:

"You want to participate in this competition?"

Li An put out the cigarette butt and vomited his lips: "Try it."

moment.

“Why not try the Hong Kong City International Piano Competition early next year?”

Qin Yong didn't understand why Li An wanted to participate in a competition that was full of insider information. Based on his understanding of Li An, the other party should not be unfamiliar with domestic piano competitions.

"The level is not good enough."

Li An is really not mocking himself. He knows how much he weighs now. Even in China, it is not easy to say how much he weighs, but it won’t be too different.

There are too many people playing the piano in China. Only those who really understand the actual situation know that the third and fourth levels of the pyramid have been rolled up and cannot be rolled anymore.

Furthermore, the original intention of his decision to participate in this competition was to test himself and learn from others.

If he can't even make it to the third round of this level of competition, then if he goes to an Asian-level competition like the Hong Kong City International Piano Competition, he'll probably be in the first round.

Are travel expenses, food, accommodation and registration fees free of charge?

If you can't make it to the core round, you can only do some sightseeing and nothing else.

If you want to be an atmosphere group, you can solve it with a network cable.

"Let's talk about it later when we have a chance."

Li An smiled.

Qin Yong thought about it and said, "In this way, I will give you one and a half days off a week. After all, you are still on the job representing Lan Tian in the competition, so prepare well."

This was a very clever thing to say, but Ang Lee only cared about the first half of the sentence.

"Brother Xie Yong, just give me a month for textbook issues."

-

Everyone has his own ambitions. What Li An thinks about is Li An's own business. Qin Yong just mentioned it casually.

Later, he thought about it, everyone's personal situation is different, and Ang Lee is indeed a special case.

He has never seen a situation where a teacher working in a social art training institution would want to participate in such a major professional competition.

Artistic competitions in the field of classical music are sometimes too abstract and have certain class attributes.

Most of the contestants he is familiar with are dreamers who already have a prosperous life. As for whether the dreams of some of them end in art or something else, he will not comment.

But in comparison, he felt that the sentence "I just want to understand the piano thing" is more convincing.

While working hard for life, he never forgets to pursue his own path of knowledge.

Ang Lee is indeed a special case.

He wanted to help Li An both publicly and privately, but how could he help in such a matter?

I can only give you an extra half day off first.

We’ll wait and see later.

come on.

-

The day's work ends with piano practice.

Mid-September is approaching, and it's only six o'clock and the sky outside the window is already dark.

There was no need to go to Blue Whale anymore on Friday. When we stopped at the intersection going home, Li An asked Chen Xuan what he wanted to eat at night.

"hot pot?"

Li An came up with an idea. Some time ago, he heard Chen Xuan clamoring for hot pot.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan refused: "You want to be lazy the next day?"

Li An smiled: "Then let's go buy groceries."

The light turned green, and the two of them walked hand in hand in the evening breeze to the supermarket on the other side of the road.

After some shopping, they returned to the door of the two small homes.

Today they chose 2501.

As soon as the door opened, the person at the door stared at her and saw that it was her again. He took two tactical steps back, then turned around and walked back with cat steps.

It sniffed Chen Xuan's white shoes.

Li An didn't know if Bai Wan still remembered the sister who held it for the injection, but when he saw Bai Wan getting up and preparing to lay his paws on Chen Xuan's white calves, he quickly yelled: "Eight Wan!"

Shi Wan was so frightened that he rolled around and rushed towards the bedroom. When he was about to turn the corner and enter the door, his hind legs slipped.

With a "boom", half of his body hit the door frame, and disappeared from the sight of the two people in the next second.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xuan was angry and amused, and scolded: "Why are you scaring it? The Internet said it is a kitten that wants to get close to you."

As a cat lover, there was once only one cat between Chen Xuan and the shit collector.

"The sharp points of his claws will scratch you."

Chen Xuan oohed and ahhhhed twice, and then reminded: "You should cut its nails regularly."

Li An was not so meticulous about this kind of thing before, but now it is different, "I will study how to trim the cat's nails tonight."

As he said that, he put on his slippers, washed his hands and prepared to cook.

At this time, Chen Xuan noticed a pair of pink slippers at the door, "Huh?" she asked suspiciously.

Li An heard the news and went to explain: "The express delivery just arrived the day before yesterday."

As he said that, he stretched out his feet and said, "We are both the same. If you don't believe me, look at my shopping record. I also bought two bars of soap."

"Why are you nervous?"

Chen Xuan smiled and took off her white shoes and stepped on her new slippers.

Then he hung the bag on the hook on the side of the door frame, and Li An's shirt was hung on the hook next to it.

This row of hooks was put up when she was helping to tidy up the place, thinking that Li An didn't have hangers in the house.

Now looking at my bag and Ang Lee's shirt hanging together, who would have thought?

At this moment she felt full of life.

happy.

She tied up her hair and went to the kitchen, "What do you need from me?"

Li An sorted out the ingredients for dinner and sorted the ones that were not used temporarily into three bags.

"Put it in your refrigerator first."

Chen Xuan nodded, "Okay."

Carrying three bags, she returned to 2502 and put them in the refrigerator. Chen Xuan changed her clothes at the same time.

When he came back, Lian was already cutting meat, "What next?"

Li An raised his head and couldn't help but take a closer look at such short pajamas. "Let's go play. When it gets hot, go to the bedroom and turn on the air conditioner. Dinner will be served in half an hour."

"This pajamas looks great."
