Second Piano Concerto

While Qin Haiou was racking his brains for Huacai's creation, on this day, Xiaopengmen finally welcomed the two long-awaited guests.

When Qin Haiou suddenly quit the music scene, he didn't explain the reason to the outside world, and he didn't even respond to the concerns of his friends.After deciding to come back, he only told the news of his comeback to his two closest friends, Chen Xu and Lu Liqiu.The two were very pleasantly surprised when they heard the news. They had wanted to visit Qin Haiou for a long time, but he had kept silent about his situation before. Obviously he didn't want to be disturbed, so the two had no choice but to stay still.Now that Qin Haiou finally let go, Lu Liqiu and Chen Xu agreed together and decided to go to Longjin Town together to see this missed guy before the peak of the spring performance season.

Since this was a private meeting, both Chen Chen and Lu Liqiu came alone, but due to professional habits, they still brought their respective instruments with them.Since Qin Haiou left, the three friends have not met for more than a year. Now that they finally meet, they have endless things to say, especially Lu Liqiu, who has always been straightforward in front of Qin Haiou, but this time he was forced to endure it for a year I didn't get to the bottom of it, I was too suffocated, and I had to ask Qin Haiou to explain clearly.Qin Haiou didn't intend to continue to hide it, so he told them the part except Tan Shuo.The two were very concerned after hearing this, and asked him how he was recovering. Qin Haiou told them what was going on, and went to the piano room to play the piano for them.Lu Liqiu and Chen Xu knew Qin Haiou's level very well, but now they heard him play again, but found that instead of regressing because of this setback, he played better than before, and they couldn't help being amazed.

Lu Liqiu leaned on the side of the piano, looked down at Qin Haiou's fingers running on the keyboard, and said suspiciously: "You are not recovering, you are clearly not giving people a way to survive! I think you are not It's not a retreat to rest, but a retreat to practice, right?"

"You're exaggerating." Qin Haiou shook his head. He wasn't sure if he really played better than before, but during this period of time, whether he was practicing the piano alone or communicating with Tan Shuo, he Feeling happy from the bottom of his heart, no matter what the result of the comeback concert is, at least now he enjoys the preparation process very much.

"But you are indeed much more mature than in the past, and your handling of music is richer and more delicate, and your skill is good." Chen Chen standing on the other side also agreed with Lu Liqiu's opinion.

"Yeah, yeah, my hands are itchy. We haven't performed together for a long time!" Lu Liqiu tapped the piano board with his fingers itchingly, and suddenly found that there was a song on the music stand. A handwritten score, looked at it, and grabbed it, "What is this?"

"This is a new work I commissioned." Qin Haiou heard him talk about performing on the same stage, his heart moved, and he had an idea.

"A new work? You commissioned it?" Lu Liqiu immediately became excited, and his mind turned quickly, "Are you going to play it at the comeback concert? Who wrote it?"

Qin Haiou stroked his sleeves slowly, then raised his head again: "Secret."

"Secret," Lu Liqiu was stunned for a moment, then turned to Chen Chen, "Listen, he actually has a secret!"

Chen Fu was far less excited than Lu Liqiu. As a performer who performed outside all the year round, she immediately realized the danger: "Seagull, is it too risky to do this?"

"This risk is worth taking." Qin Haiou said.

Lu Liqiu was still asking: "Who wrote it? You must be a master if you can see it! Hey, don't be foolish, tell me!"

Qin Haiou looked at him seriously: "I warn you, all the news you heard here today is top secret, you must not tell anyone, otherwise you will wait to bear sister Yu's anger."

Lu Liqiu shivered for a moment: "Do you still need to say it? I understand it!"

"Including Xiao Cong." Qin Haiou paused and added a sentence.

Lu Liqiu and Chen Xu looked at each other, and the two fell silent.Chen Xu was secretly surprised, Qin Haiou had never shown such an attitude when mentioning Xiao Cong in the past.But Lu Liqiu was usually quiet for less than three seconds, so he came down and looked at Qin Haiou's expression: "Are you serious?"

Qin Haiou kept silent, which was a tacit agreement.Lu Liqiu snorted softly: "You should have been wary of him long ago!"

"Why?" Qin Haiou frowned slightly.

Lu Liqiu glanced at Chen Xu again, seeing that she had no intention of stopping her, he said: "When you disappeared, everyone was speculating on the reason for your disappearance. Minnie discovered that Old Tang was secretly spreading rumors about you. Later, everyone They didn't succeed because sister Yu suppressed them."

Minnie is Lu Liqiu's manager, and Old Tang is Xiao Cong's manager.After Lu Liqiu knew about this, he discussed it privately with Chen Xu many times, but considering that Qin Haiou had already left, it was useless to say anything, so he never told him about it.

"Does sister Yu know that they did it?" Qin Haiou asked lightly.

"I don't know if she knows!" Lu Liqiu scratched his head, "But the situation at that time was too chaotic, and it's possible that Yu Jie didn't have time to investigate the source of the news. What's more, with Teacher Wang around, Xiao Cong didn't dare to mess around in front of the media. When talking, you can only play tricks behind your back. But you know what Sister Yu is doing. Minnie took some time to verify this matter. By the time she consulted with me, Sister Yu had basically settled the matter. "

He sighed while talking, Chen Xu couldn't stand it anymore, he frowned and said, "Can you stop talking in such a gossip tone?"

Lu Liqiu smiled and said: "How can this be called gossip, I'm making up lessons for Seagull!"

Chen Xu didn't laugh, she didn't think it was a funny thing.When Qin Haiou left suddenly, everyone close to him in the music scene was targeted by the media overnight, not to mention Wang Yifu and Xiao Cong, Chen Xu and Lu Liqiu were no exception.To this day, when Chen Xu thinks back to the original scene, he still has mixed emotions. On the one hand, he is angry at Xiao Cong's behavior of adding insult to injury, and thinks that Qin Haiou should be allowed to recognize the true face of this person; Can't bear to let Qin Haiou face this fact.In the past, she and Lu Liqiu didn't have much affection for Xiao Cong, but they didn't feel disgusted. For Qin Haiou's sake, they occasionally cooperated with him on stage, but since Qin Haiou left, she thought about it more than once. , If Qin Haiou knew about this, how shocked and sad he would be.However, what Chen Xu didn't expect was that Qin Haiou's reaction was surprisingly flat.His attitude towards Xiao Cong had already changed before Lu Liqiu said this, but judging from his appearance, it didn't look like he knew these things in advance.Chen Xu was very puzzled, so he asked, "Sea-gull, why don't you tell Xiao Cong that you plan to come back?"

Qin Haiou lowered his eyes and looked at the keys with an elusive expression: "He will know later."

Seeing that he refused to tell the reason, Chen Xu persuaded him again: "Since the matter is over, don't think about it any more. We tell you this today, just hope that you will be more careful in the future. Now you just need to concentrate on preparing for the concert. good."

Lu Liqiu had been laughing all the time before. Hearing what she said, his face darkened: "How did the seagull treat him? How did he treat the seagull? It’s impossible for things to pass.”

Chen Xu was already very entangled in whether to tell Qin Haiou about this issue, but now seeing him add fuel to the fire, he was about to refute, but heard Qin Haiou say: "It doesn't matter how he treats me or whether he regards me as a threat. "

Startled, the two turned to look at him.

"Don't worry, I won't be affected by this incident," Qin Haiou said while pulling out the sheet music from Lu Liqiu's hand, stacked it neatly and put it away again, "As for when to announce the comeback to the outside world, that depends Listen to Sister Yu, I don't care what I say."

As he spoke, the corners of his mouth curled up, and a smile appeared in his eyes again.Seeing that his attitude became clearer, Chen Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.And Lu Liqiu's mood became faster, pointing at Qin Haiou and telling Chen: "Why do I feel that he is getting more and more mysterious? He actually played Shen Shen with us!"

Qin Haiou smiled and called the two of them out for dinner.Since he knew the truth ten years ago, "Xiao Cong" has become a name that makes him unable to calm down.But as his understanding of Tan Shuo gradually deepened, he also gradually learned to suppress his anger in his heart.Now he doesn't care what Xiao Cong thinks of him as a junior. He only knows that this comeback concert is not only related to his own future, but also to Tan Shuo's future. In order to achieve their common goal, he must eliminate all interference. Do your best to make this matter the best it can be.
