Zhou Rong's earnest persuasion didn't seem to shake He Jing's mind.
"Teacher, I've thought about it." He Jing looked calm and said, "You don't need to persuade me."
After that, she stopped talking and stood quietly in front of the desk, holding her head high and looking at the old man in front of her, just like the scene when she first came here.
Years have passed, and although the innocence on her face is no longer there, the determination in her eyes remains.
"Why."
Zhou Rong sighed.
"You kid."
"That's all, just do it according to your own wishes."
After Zhou Rong finished speaking, He Jing smiled and said, "Thank you."
moment.
"Have the flights been booked?"
"It's booked."
"What's the ticket date?"
"5 a.m. on the 27th."
"Okay, I understand. Just take a good rest and prepare yourself these days."
"Okay teacher, do you have anything else?"
"It's okay, you can go."
With a click, the office door was gently closed.
The huge office became quiet again.
Zhou Rong picked up the study abroad application form on the table again.
He lowered his gaze to the bottom.
"musical education."
As she spoke, she sighed again.

It's late May in Haishi, and the cool night is already mixed with a hint of warmth.
On the way back to the apartment, He Jing suddenly stopped at the entrance of the theater.
It was already ten o'clock, and the school choir was still rehearsing.
She knows that at the end of this year, the 4th National College Vocal Opera Competition will be held at the Haishi Conservatory of Music.
"very nice."
After listening for a brief moment, He Jing's eyes seemed to have returned to a period in the summer of her sophomore year.
For a jazz competition in Hong Kong Province, she rehearsed late into the night with the school's jazz band for a month.
"Come on, junior brothers and sisters."
After a while, she continued walking towards the apartment.
....
Life at the Conservatory of Music is monotonous yet interesting.
There are lessons for piano practice, rehearsals and performance competitions.
There are also those who skip school, smoke, drink and fall in love online.
It's still your choice.
....
Corridor of girls' apartment.
"Hello, senior sister, you're back so late. Did you go on a date?"
"No, I went out to do something. Are you still going out so late?"
"My boyfriend is here today, hehe."
"Be safe."
"Bye bye, senior sister."
"bye."
Back at the apartment, He Jing washed up and went to bed.
I took out my phone and clicked on a live broadcast entrance.
The picture cuts to a gorgeous stage, where a blond woman wearing a red gift is sitting on the piano and playing.
"Piano Concerto in B flat major."
"Playing well."
He Jing listened carefully.
...
As one after another performers performed Mozart's works and self-selected music, it was already past three o'clock in the night by the time all the performers had finished their performances.
He Jing put down the hot phone and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"There is no game for him today."
Then he fell asleep.
At half past eight the next morning, the alarm clock rang on time.
After He Jing got up and washed up, she went to the street to do some shopping before leaving.
After lunch, I went back to the piano room and started practicing.
The time for practicing piano passed quickly. When she stopped again, the clock on the wall had already reached half past four.
Withdrawing his gaze, He Jing thought for a while and picked up the phone beside him.
I dialed a number and clicked on speakerphone.
But until the phone beeped and hung up automatically, no one answered.
"It's almost ten o'clock, why don't you get up?"
The time difference between Vienna and Beijing is 6 hours.
moment.
She replayed the number.
'beep----'
'beep--'
This time, the phone rang twice and a half before being picked up.
Just, after a short period of silence.
"....Hello, hello, sister."
What came was a sweet and waxy voice.
He Jing was confused.
The voice on the phone then rang.
"I'm Qin Jian's friend. He just went back to the room to get something. He left his cell phone on the dining table and didn't take it. I saw that you made two calls in a row, so I answered it because I was worried that you might be in a hurry."
This time He Jing heard clearly and the thoughts in his mind were organized.
"Excuse me, it's nothing urgent. I just gave him a call to ask."
He Jing paused.
"Are you Duan Ran?"
"It's me! It's me."
"I am Qin Jian's sister. I have watched your game. It was very good."
"Thank you for the compliment!"
"How is Qin Jian? How are you these two days?"
"He can eat and sleep well, and yesterday's rehearsal went very well."
He Jing nodded, and she felt relieved, "That's good..."
Just when she was about to open her mouth again, there was a rush of activity on the other end of the phone.
"Whose phone number?"
"Hurry up, hurry up, sister's call, hurry up!"
After all the noise.
"sister!"
Listening to Qin Jian's voice, He Jing smiled and said, "It seems that I have been living a good life during my time in Vienna. I can eat and sleep, and there is a little beauty accompanying me, huh?"
"Haha, no, no, I'm planning to give you a call at noon for my afternoon game."
"I know, I have nothing to do. I just made a call to check on your condition, but I feel relieved now."
"Don't worry, sister, how is the situation over there?"
"Everything goes well here."
"Has the date been decided yet?"
"It's not decided yet. You can just go about your business without worrying about me."
"Okay, then you must tell me as soon as you decide the time."
"Okay, no more talking, I'm going to practice the piano. I wish you good luck tonight."
...
‘Dududu’
After Qin Jian put down the phone, Duan Ran recounted all the conversations she had just had with He Jing.
"I didn't say anything wrong..." Duan Ran was a little worried.
"No problem, it's just a phone call," Qin Jian smiled, "She complimented you on how beautiful you are."
"Ah?" Duan Ran covered his mouth and said in surprise, "No way, has sister seen me?"
Qin Jian rolled his eyes, "She has watched our games, okay, okay, eat quickly."
"Yes, I forgot."
With that said, Duan Ran picked up the half-eaten piece of bread and continued to bite it.
sweet.
...
After the first day of the finals of the Mozart Piano Works category, the outstanding performance of the fifteen contestants attracted more attention from international classical music organizations.
"Contestants from all over the world have opened up the spirit of Mozart's music more. In this regard, other Mozart concerto records cannot be compared with the stage of this competition."
"This competition allows the world to hear more works about Mozart's youth."
“I never advocate any individual or organization that mythologizes Wolfgang, but I have to say that in this music competition, our musicians once again showed the world Mozart’s incredible power on the keyboard instrument.
"
"For those..."
...
Overnight, there was overwhelming discussion about the finals of the Mozart Piano Works Group, and everyone was looking forward to tonight’s final piano feast.
