Chapter 247 After Curtain Falls (1)

After the banquet, Ning Tianyu and Xiao Yue did not go home, but stayed at Xing Yang's house for the night. Because they were good friends, Ning Tianyu's parents and Xiao Yue's parents did not object.

The three of them gathered in Xing Yang's study room after the guests of the banquet had left. The three of them were obviously a little tired, so they didn't say anything the moment they entered the room.

"Today's banquet was considered a success," Xing Yang was the first to speak, breaking the silence. "I saw that Tianyu's parents recognized Tianyu's musical talent. I saw a lot of people praising your musical talent with your parents, and they seemed to be very happy as well."

Xiao Yue heaved a sigh of relief, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face. "I also feel that Tian Yu did well today, almost perfectly. At that time, I was really worried that you would make a mistake."

Ning Tianyu also felt that he had performed quite well today. "I'm quite satisfied with today's performance. I think my parents should know about my talent in music. After that, it should be much easier for me to convince them."

'"I think you should wait for a day or two to see if your parents will take the initiative to talk to you about this matter." Xiao Yue wanted to give Ning Tianyu some advice, afraid that he would act too hastily. "If you tell your parents about this matter right away, it will appear that today's matter is too purposeful. It will make your parents uncomfortable, and it will backfire."

"You're right," Ning Tianyu would not object to Xiao Yue's suggestion. "You always have everything you want, I really admire you."

"It's nothing. Helping friends is my duty." Xiao Yue was used to Ning Tianyu's praise. "Should we wait for your parents to agree to your enrollment in the Conservatory of Music?"

"Xing Yang, I see that the experts you and Xiao Yue's mother invited also talked with my parents for a long time. What did they say?" Ning Tianyu was very curious about what those experts were saying about him.

'"They," Xing Yang thought for a while before saying, "They said some compliments at the beginning, and then they talked about your performance with Xiao Yue. They said a lot of technical terms, but I don't understand them either. It basically means that you and Xiao Yue played professionally and controlled their rhythm and expressed their feelings well."

Ning Tianyu nodded, "Then how did my parents react?"

'"Your parents also kept a low profile when they praised them at the beginning," Xing Yang recalled as he spoke. "Later on, when there were more people, they were no longer reserved. Your father even took the initiative to talk to those people about your musical talent, and said that he hoped to receive guidance from them in the future."

"Oh! That's what my father said," Ning Tianyu didn't expect his father to take the initiative to ask those people to guide him.

'"Yes," Xing Yang nodded.

Xiao Yue saw Ning Tianyu's excitement and couldn't help but remind him, "Tianyu, I don't think you should be too excited when you go back tomorrow. As long as your parents don't tell you about this matter, you shouldn't bring it up to prevent them from suspecting you."

"Mm," Ning Tianyu understood the reason behind this. "I know. Don't worry, I know what to do."

"That's good. Also, if you want to enter the Conservatory of Music, it would be best if you can practice more music at home during this period of time, so that your parents can often hear the music you play, so that they can feel that your love for music is real, not a whim." Xiao Yue gave Ning Tianyu another move.

Ning Tianyu nodded repeatedly, "That makes sense. Starting tomorrow, I only need to go home to practice the zither as soon as school ends. I must impress them."

Xiao Yue nodded.

At this moment, Xing Yang sat at the side and remained silent. Actually, he wasn't listening to them. Instead, he remembered Su Nuo's analysis of the two of them at the banquet.

Xing Yang looked at the two friends in front of him and his mind was filled with Su Nuo's words. He suddenly felt as if he did not understand the two people in front of him very well, or rather, he did not completely understand them.

"Why are you looking at us like this?" Xiao Yue noticed Xing Yang's strange gaze.

Xing Yang noticed that he was distracted and immediately adjusted his expression. He smiled and said, "Nothing. I just thought of something and was distracted by it. I guess I was a little tired."

Xiao Yue felt that there must be something wrong with Xing Yang's heart, and his words were clearly contained in his words. "Tell me if you have anything to say. I don't like the way you look at me with this bell."

'"That's right. Tell me if there's anything you want," Ning Tianyu also felt that Xing Yang was a little strange. "You haven't spoken since just now. Is there something that upset you? We'll definitely help you if we can."

'"It's not a big deal," Xing Yang thought of Su Nuo's words again. He felt that Su Nuo's words were really accurate. "I just felt that the way the two of you spoke was really different from your musical style."

Xiao Yue keenly sensed that Xing Yang's words were true, but he did not say anything. Instead, he cast an inquiring look at Xing Yang.

"What do you mean?" Ning Tianyu also felt that Xing Yang's words had a different meaning.

Xing Yang immediately felt that he had said something unnecessary, but he could not take it back.

Xing Yang promised Su Nuo not to tell Xiao Yue and Ning Tianyu what she said, so Xing Yang could only think of a way to cover it up.

'"Just casually," Xing Yang suddenly looked cynical. "How can I comment on your musical attainments? I don't have your musical talent. I just want to learn from those masters. Isn't it a bit inappropriate? Just kidding, don't take it seriously."

Ning Tianyu didn't comment on Xing Yang's words. He just lowered his head and smiled.

However, when Ning Tianyu raised his head, he saw Xiao Yue's serious expression. Obviously, he was very unhappy with Xing Yang's words. "Xiao Yue, what are you thinking?"

Xiao Yue still stared at Xing Yang with inquiring eyes.

Xing Yang felt a little guilty and subconsciously shifted his gaze from Xiao Yue to Ning Tianyu.

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Yue didn't think that Xing Yang's words just now were casual, "Did you think about it yourself, or did someone say that to you?"

Xing Yang secretly regretted that he shouldn't have talked too much just now. If he provoked Xiao Yue now, it would be a bad thing if he insisted on digging into the root of the matter. "I really said it casually. Don't think too much about it."

Xiao Yue could feel that Xing Yang was unwilling to say it, at least not in front of everyone.

Xiao Yue slowly stood up, stretched his waist, and said while yawning, "I'm a little sleepy. Let's talk tomorrow if we have something to do. It's been a tiring day, and I'm really sleepy."

"Alright," Xing Yang sighed in relief, "I'll take you to your rooms."

"I'm a little tired," Ning Tianyu stood up.
