He Jing also felt sorry in her heart. She could see that Qin Jian really wanted to keep her for a few more days.
The two siblings really hadn't sat face to face and had a proper chat while they were lying down.
The two also agreed to have a good talk after Qin Jian's finals, but He Jing received a work call from ICM yesterday afternoon and she needed to rush back to Rochester as soon as possible.
What's more, she also has to prepare for the end-of-year concert at school.
"Celebrate the New Year,"
He Jing paused and smiled, "We will all go home early this New Year."
Qin Jian sighed, "Okay, sister."
The two siblings discussed He Jing's work issues again.
He Jing told Qin Jian that she would host a teaching experiment group when she returned home, and the research topic would be the piano teaching materials that Qin Jian had given her before.
After listening to this, Qin Jian counted the time and planned to completely sort out Chris' beginner's guide to piano after returning to China.
He felt it was time.
When they finally parted, He Jing asked Qin Jian if he would go home after returning to China.
"Not necessarily, it depends on the situation."
Qin Jian is not sure. His schedule after returning to China has been arranged until mid-January.
"You can decide based on the situation. If you want to go home, stop by and see Ye Yi."
Qin Jian was stunned.
"Some things are better to be explained clearly to the other person earlier. You know what I mean."
After that, He Jing took one last look at him, smiled and bowed his hand, "I believe you can handle this problem well, let's have a great concert tonight."
Then turned and left.
...
After watching the plane take off, Qin Jian took a taxi back to Baoge Hotel.
On the way, he thought about He Jing's words. He didn't know why the other party suddenly brought up Ye Yi's question.
In other words, he didn't know how much He Jing knew about the relationship between him and Ye Yi.
He could probably only guess that He Jing had some contact with Ye Yi during the holidays when he was teaching courses in Boer, but he didn't know anything else.
Counting the days, he had not contacted Ye Yi for a long time.
He Jing's words reminded him that some things really should be explained.
After thinking about this, he calmed down.
In the next few days, he would not have any leisure time.
Especially tonight's concert, for him personally, tonight's concert is particularly important.
...
Qin Jian called Duan Ran after getting off the car at Baoge Hotel.
The call was quickly connected, and then there was a crisp "Hello~"
Qin Jian smiled: "I'm back."
"It went well. They've already boarded the plane. How about you, will you be back at noon?"
"Okay, please stay with Aunt Lin. Don't worry about me. See you in the afternoon."
As he spoke, Qin Jian crossed the road.
"Yeah, I'll go there now, it's almost time."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Jian had already walked into the Warsaw Philharmonic Hall.
As soon as he entered the door, he was greeted by his personal poster of winning the championship.
It was in this hall last night that he was held high by Ivanov and others.
Now looking at the silence around him, he felt a little like he was in another world.
With a sigh, he walked into the concert hall under the guidance of the staff.
It was 10 o'clock at this time, 30 minutes before his appointment with Marek.
The huge concert hall was empty.
Rejecting the company of the staff, Qin Jian wanted to enjoy some alone time alone.
Sometimes he appeared on the stage without a piano, and sometimes he appeared in a judge's seat, replaying scene after scene of this competition in his mind.

For a few moments, he had the urge to yell loudly.
But in the end, he still soberly reminded himself that there might be a lot of surveillance here.
In the last five minutes, he returned to the first row of seats, took out his phone and checked again.
He responded to all the congratulatory messages one by one early in the morning, and he also briefly read the reports from major domestic media.
How should I put it, this feeling is very strange.
It is different from the exciting experience after winning the Huayun Competition and the Mozart Competition.
After winning this championship, he felt relatively calm.
After reading various articles and comments that were worthy of excitement, he also tried to make himself excited.
But all her own efforts are not as good as Duan Ran’s pink lips when she wakes up.
Then he realized that maybe what he really expected in his heart was still on the stage that had not yet happened.
Whether it is the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini in the finals of the Huayun Competition or K491 in the finals of the Mozart Competition, these are my final words to a certain stage of my life.
At the end of this Chopin Competition, there was still one piece left that could really be dedicated to me.
Once upon a time competition was life.
...
"From today on, music is no longer a competition."
Muttering, Qin Jian opened Weibo.
This sentence was accompanied by a picture of an empty stage at the moment.
After hesitating for a while, he changed his Weibo name to ‘Qin Jian Piano’
...
At exactly 10:30, Marek and his assistant arrived at the concert hall accompanied by an interpreter.
As soon as they met, Marek first sent congratulations.
Qin Jian expressed his gratitude.
Then getting straight to the point, the two of them discussed tonight's concert with the help of a translator.
This is the tradition of the competition, and an awards ceremony will be held on the second day after each final.
After the award ceremony, there will be a solo concert by the gold medal winner. This concert can be said to be the most important concert in Poland.
none of them.
As the stage director of all previous Gold Medal Concerts, Marek communicates with the Gold Medal winners on the specific repertoire and performance matters for each performance.
As usual, the repertoire played in the first half is the repertoire from the first three rounds of competition, and the second half is the concerto played in the final.
After discussion, Qin Jian agreed to perform Winter Wind, Revolution, Heroic Polonaise and the full set of Op28 Preludes in the first half.
But in the second half he proposed to play Xiao Er, and Marek agreed.
The two will then schedule a rehearsal at 14:00 p.m.
...
At noon, together with Edmunds Adams, Rachel and other ranked contestants, we had lunch with the judging panel.
At 13:00, Qin Jian accepted a follow-up interview with Polish national television.
After the interview, he rushed to the concert hall again.
Marik and his symphony orchestra are already in place.
Rehearsal begins directly.
...
This rehearsal lasted two and a half hours.
No one knows what Marek went through in these two and a half hours.
When the rehearsal was over, he thanked God.
Qin Jian asked him the most questions he had ever encountered in his career in this non-competitive performance.
The most questions in one work.
There was a moment when he even wanted to hand over the baton directly. He joked to Qin Jian: "Why don't you play it on your own tonight?"
Unexpectedly, the message returned by the interpreter was: "Is it really okay?"
Marik:...
Marek didn't know that Qin Jian played his first final in his life.
Also affected were a number of musicians from the Polish National Symphony Orchestra.
Their experience during these two and a half hours was equally miserable.
The only people who walked out of the concert hall in high spirits were probably the gold medal winner himself and the translator.
Two and a half hours later.
Here will be the coronation ceremony of the new Chopin champion.
...
Back at the hotel, Qin Jian took a shower alone. In the hot mist, the excitement buried in his heart finally emerged.
Now he can't wait to share it with others.
"Click."
Coincidentally, the door rang at this moment.
It was just the right time to come back, Qin Jian was excited.
