Zhan Xiang nodded, and in his heart, he really recognized Sheng Jiayi's words.
But Sheng Jiayi... feels that this guy doesn't understand at all?
Forget it, no matter if he understands it or not, Sheng Jiayi’s words are all here.
Feeling that she had rested enough, Sheng Jiayi stood up and prepared to continue rehearsing.
Zhan Xiang looked at Sheng Jiayi's back and felt that his heartbeat was... chaotic again.
While the two were continuing to rehearse, two people passed by.
One of them even lamented to the people around him: "Look, she looks like a golden boy."
"Yeah, it's very eye-catching, but don't you think it's sad?"
"Ah, sad?"
"Obviously it's music performance, but you have to choose partners based on their looks. Don't you think this is an insult to music and a tragedy for the industry?"
The person who said this was an old member of the band, everyone called her Xiao He. Xiao He has been working hard in the band these years.
But the person chatting with him felt that Xiao He's words were a bit too much, so he advised: "Jiayi is also very good. Maybe he is a little immature now, but the future is promising!"
Xiao He couldn't agree, and asked: "When choosing partners, isn't it about choosing strong ones? This is not buying stocks!"
"But...Oh, nothing can be changed anyway. Let's just do our own thing."
The other party hoped that Xiao He could be more open-minded, but Xiao He couldn't do it. Ever since it was announced that Sheng Jiayi was Zhan Xiang's partner, she felt increasingly uncomfortable!
Originally, she quite liked this new girl and thought she was cute and energetic.
But when she saw such a good opportunity being taken up by a newcomer... Xiao He couldn't accept it, and her mentality towards Sheng Jiayi also changed.
Moreover, when she was not doing anything, she also talked about the cooperation between Sheng Jiayi and Zhan Xiang to her colleagues. Both inside and outside her words were exaggerating that the two were having an affair through practice.
If you hear this kind of words once or twice, you will only think it is a joke. But if you do it too many times, it will be difficult not to think about it. When you see Sheng Jiayi and Zhan Xiang again, the simple interaction and contact between the two people will be misunderstood by those who are interested.
Answer. In the end, everyone's attitude towards Sheng Jiayi changed somewhat.
Sheng Jiayi, who is diligent in practicing, has not noticed these changes yet. Her time has been taken up by rehearsals.
Moreover, in the middle and late stages of rehearsal, some props were added to her performance.
One of them is an ancient-style window. Sheng Jiayi is playing on this side of the window, and Zhan Xiang is on the other side of the window.
Because it was just a rehearsal, there were no lights on site. But on the stage, with soft lights shining from above, the scene must have been hazy and dreamy.
Sheng Jiayi was full of fantasies about such a scene and couldn't wait!
Because of the extra props, when Sheng Jiayi and Zhan Xiang rehearse, people will come to watch the excitement.
Just like now, Xiao He and several other members of the group passed by the rehearsal hall here and stopped.
At this time, Sheng Jiayi had finished a rehearsal and was standing there taking a rest. Suddenly, she heard someone sighing: "It's great to be young!"
The sighing voice was quite loud. Sheng Jiayi turned around and saw that she was a familiar member of the group. She walked over with a smile and said, "Sister He is also very young. Look how good your skin is. You can't see any pores."
"But given her age, she is definitely not as popular as my little sister."
When Xiao He spoke, there was a smile on his face, but Sheng Jiayi could feel something strange from the other person's expression and tone.
Zhan Xiang over there had already tuned the strings and said to Sheng Jiayi, "Jiayi, let's try rehearsing again."
"Oh, okay."
Sheng Jiayi was about to leave when Xiao He stopped her and asked, "Do you mind if we watch here for a while?"
"Of course not, you just happen to give us some suggestions."
"Oh, don't take your advice seriously. You are now extremely powerful and can collaborate with a musical talent like Zhan Xiang. How can we be qualified to give you advice?"
Xiao He's words... made Sheng Jiayi feel strange again.
But time was tight, and she didn't have time to think too much, so she trotted to Zhanxiang's side.
Zhan Xiang explained a few more points to Sheng Jiayi and then started rehearsing with Sheng Jiayi.
Compared with the previous days, they cooperated more tacitly, and their playing techniques became more and more skillful. The music they played was enjoyable even for their peers.
For a moment, the few people observing the rehearsal were silent.
In the end, it was only during the break between the two people's rehearsal that one person expressed emotion: "I have to say, Jiayi's progress is really rapid!"
Another person said: "They say Zhan Xiang is a genius, I think Jiayi is no less generous!"
Others also agreed in twos and threes.
But these compliments made Xiao He feel more and more uncomfortable the more he listened to them.
After a moment, she said in a low tone: "He is obviously very capable of showing off his skills. He will teach students according to their aptitude and provide guidance. If someone else were to take over, his performance might not be worse than Sheng Jiayi's."
The others were silent when they heard this. However, some people agreed with Xiao He's evaluation, while others did not.
Just when everyone here was busy with their own thoughts, Zhanxiang over there thought of a better position and wanted to ask Sheng Jiayi to try it.
Sheng Jiayi listened carefully to Zhan Xiang's explanation, and then stepped up to step through the prop window.
But as soon as she lifted her legs, she discovered that the window... was shaking?
Sheng Jiayi subconsciously looked up and found that the window was falling down!
"careful!"
Before Sheng Jiayi could recover, she was hugged by Zhan Xiang!
Then the prop window hit Zhan Xiang's back. Zhan Xiang groaned and stumbled forward!
Fortunately, Sheng Jiayi supported his body hard, and others ran over and moved the prop window away. After that, everyone supported Zhanxiang and stood up straight.
But the first thing Zhanxiang said was to ask Sheng Jiayi: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. What about you, does your shoulder hurt?"
Zhan Xiang moved slightly and comforted him: "It's okay, don't worry."
This made Sheng Jiayi breathe a sigh of relief, and then said: "It's okay, it's okay. You are a violinist. If your shoulder is broken, what will you do if you can't play the violin in the future?"
In fact, Zhan Xiang didn't think too much at the time. He just hoped that Sheng Jiayi would not be in danger. As for why he was so eager to protect her...
Zhan Xiang felt that he had somewhat figured it out, but he still didn't quite understand it.
At this moment, Xiao He suddenly squeezed Sheng Jiayi away, looked at Zhan Xiang nervously, and asked, "Is it really okay? Some injuries cannot be felt at the time, but they will become more and more serious later."
"It's okay, the props aren't very heavy."
"I'm afraid your injury this time has little to do with the props," Xiao He said, frowning and looking at Sheng Jiayi, with an accusation in his voice, "Did you knock down the props? Zhan Xiang did it for protection."
Did you fall down? You were too careless. If Zhanxiang is really injured because of you and cannot perform, can you bear this responsibility?"
