About the fact that I unintentionally raised my sister to be a cripple - Chapter 154 The evening spent with Qimingyue

In the past few days, Sakakihara Raku has spent endless hours practicing.

The piano classroom in the Club Building No. 2.

It should be said that it is a piano practice room. The real piano classroom is on the third floor. There is a Steinway grand piano there. It is so expensive that you have to apply to the school to use it.

After staying in the music club for two days, Raku Sakakihara realized that the concept of the music club was very large. It included pianos, basses, drums and other musical instruments. Until now, he still didn’t know how many instruments there were in the entire music club. people.

But at least, all the classrooms on the three floors of the club building seem to be the territory of the music club.

According to Nishijima Ohgi, clubs also have different statuses in the school.

The autumn breeze blew through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows of the music classroom, and Raku Sakakihara practiced “Scottish Dance” amidst the subtle sound of the oboe next door.

For him, with the skill of “multitasking”, the coordination of his two hands is not a problem at all.

The key lies in the familiarity with the 88 keys, the fingering techniques, and the perception of rhythm, etc.

Amami Nanami moved a stool with a backrest and sat next to Sakakibara Raku. She wore the school’s classic Western-style uniform, with smooth knee-high stockings under the pleated skirt. Only a small area of ​​her fair thighs was exposed.

She was wearing her usual pair of gold-rimmed glasses, holding an English book, sitting upright and reading quietly at her side.

Paired with the slow-paced version of “Scottish Dance” played by Raku Sakakihara, the pages of the book brushed by her slender fingers also made a smooth sound, and the paper smelled of ink.

Every time she turned a page, Raku Sakakihara seemed to be able to capture the scent of paper.

After practicing the piano music in his hand until he was tired, Sakakihara was ready to stop and rest for a while.

“Continue.” Tianhai Qimingyue opened her lips and teeth slightly, and her voice was pleasant and pleasant.

However, Sakakihara couldn’t help it anymore, “Auntie, this is the third time. Please let me rest for a while.”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue held the book together with one hand and placed it flat on her knees. She folded her hands in front of her and raised her beautiful and emotionless face, “I feel tired after practicing at this level.” Already?”

The moment she raised her head, Sakakihara Raku was dazzled by the reflection on her gold-rimmed glasses. She blinked her eyes for a few seconds to adjust. When she squinted and looked over again, Amami Nanami had returned to her most familiar look. sitting position.

The way she sat on the stool was full of grace.

She is so dignified that it would be no exaggeration to say that she is a royal princess.

“I’m a newbie.” Sakakibara said helplessly, “It’s impossible to be omnipotent.”

“Beginners need to practice more. Remember, what you need to play in a month will be professional-level music.”

It was only now that Raku Sakakibara really started playing the piano that he realized the difficulty of this industry. Other people’s fingers were as graceful as flying, while his own were like hens pecking at worms. Their flexibility was not in the same dimension at all.

“By the way, Qi Mingyue, what level of strength are you at? In terms of piano, above level 10?”

“You can say that, but brother, it’s best not to use amateur standards to describe professional pianists, otherwise they will be ridiculed as idiots. Moreover, even if you have passed the Level 10 exam, you will not have the true level of Level 10. Some only have Level 2 or Level 3. If you give the sheet music to those so-called tenth-level pianists, they still can’t play…”

“.Not that much.”

Systematic piano level 9 is the hard-power piano level 9?

Tianhai Qimingyue did not intend to explain more: “There are people in every profession who think they are superior. I can tell my brother responsibly that my sister is hated by many people in the circle.”

“reason?”

“No matter where I go, no matter what competition I participate in, my sister is number one.”

There’s really nothing to say about Jiuliuli’s piano.

For the last recital, there were almost no empty seats at the Tokyo Metropolitan Theater, which can accommodate 2,000 people.

If you search for her name on the Internet, you can also find a lot of videos, including those shot during competitions and private shoots.

“I’m jealous. But shouldn’t the music industry be taxing? Everyone should be more friendly, right?”

“Brother is wrong. Not everyone regards the piano as a hobby that cultivates one’s emotions.”

Think about it carefully.

Let’s not talk about the threshold for the piano industry. People who take the piano as their life dream have so many expectations from parents and teachers wrapped around their fingertips, and so many encouraging and expectant eyes from their classmates. Wherever the music is played, it is clear that what is being played is There are pressures called Mount Tai.

If you were to play in that kind of environment, you would probably sweat on your forehead if you played even one wrong syllable.

“Sister won’t care about those words. Her own strength is completely sufficient and there are enough people who support her.”

“Is it because you are famous? Qi Mingyue.伱 should be about the same. Why can’t I see any videos of your performance on the Internet?”

“I don’t want to explain useless things. Instead of discussing this, brother, it’s better to continue practicing.”

“Fine.”

Sakakihara Raku now has no idea of ​​resting, so he must continue to work harder.

Tianhai Qimingyue saw his hands placed on the keys again and said specifically: “Pay attention to the fourth sentence in sections 13-16. These four sentences conform to the structure of origin, inheritance, transfer and combination. Pay attention to the feeling and don’t be too careful. Don’t worry about speed.”

Despite her indifferent attitude, why does Sakakihara Raku sound so considerate?

An illusion must be an illusion.

Practice lasted until 7pm.

It started at 3:30 pm and lasted until 7 pm.

Raku Sakakihara felt that he was making rapid progress. In this afternoon, he was able to play “Scottish Dance” smoothly. I have to say that the feeling of musical notes flowing out of his fingertips and stimulating his mood was really comfortable.

“It’s just a second-level piece.”

“Ah? Didn’t you teach me Level 3?”

“It’s not like someone is too stupid, so he can only climb up the stairs step by step.” Tianhai Qimingyue put on her small strapless schoolbag.

Sakakibara suddenly realized a problem: “It’s already 7 o’clock. Jiu Liuli didn’t come to see you and go home with you today?”

“I told her she didn’t need to call me if something happened.”

“oh.”

“It’s you, sister Jiang, didn’t come to contact you?” Tianhai Qimingyue asked.

“She’s going home today. She seems to be working overtime to record an anime radio drama. Maybe she’s recording an interview drama with the voice actor of the same anime? I don’t really understand this.”

While chatting with Nanami Mingzuki, they briefly tidied up the piano room together. They put down the piano board, put the stools back in place, turned off the lights, and locked the door.

It was October, and few people would use this small practice room, so the minister gave the key to himself for safekeeping.

“Seven bright moons.”

Sakakibara tilted his shoulders, which were hung by his shoulder bag. He was about to call out to Amami Nanamiyuki, but when he raised his head, he realized that she had gone ahead.

It was dark, and there were a few lights on in the corridor. The girl’s light back was walking in front, and her long flaxen hair was slightly shining in front. Her legs wearing small leather shoes under the hem of her skirt can be clearly seen as the shadow follows her movements.

Seeing her coming to the corner, Sakakibara quickly put the key back into his pocket and followed her.

“Why are you walking so fast?”

As Tianhai Qimingyue walked down the stairs, she looked ahead and replied: “Go home.”

The attitude was very cold.

Sakakibara looked at her profile. From the fact that she practiced with him until 7 o’clock in the evening, her behavior was completely opposite to her cold attitude.

From this aspect, Sakakihara Raku is actually a little grateful to her.

Humph, the little devil is actually a bit duplicitous.

Sakakihara walked through the teaching building with her and walked towards the school gate.

“It will be your birthday in a few days.”

“So what?” Tianhai Qimingyue raised her eyebrows.

“How should I put it? I want to give you a gift.”

Tianhai Qimingyue lowered her eyebrows and looked at the school gate in front of her again: “There are many people who want to give me gifts, but these gifts usually only end up in the trash can.”

“You should pay more attention to the gift that my brother gave you.”

“It barely falls into the category of harmless garbage.”

“What about other people’s gifts?”

“Hazardous waste is off-putting to look at.”

Xiao Qiyue still has such a venomous tongue, and her face and answers make people feel irritated.

However, after spending some time with Xiao Qiyue, Sakakihara Raku can still understand what she means.

What she means is that she doesn’t need a gift.

Or it can be said that don’t give her gifts, otherwise she will throw them in the trash can like garbage.

“What happened to the doll I gave you before?”

“Too bad, hazardous waste.”

Poor little shark!

Unexpectedly, it fell into Qi Mingyue’s hands.

The two walked out of the school gate together and walked down the slope of the ginkgo tree path.

A bunch of ginkgo nuts fell on the road and they stunk.

Raku Sakakibara and Nanami Nanami stopped under a traffic light together.

“Thank you for these two days.” Sakakihara held his schoolbag with one hand.

Tianhai Qimingyue glanced sideways at him. After returning to the straight position, she looked at the passing vehicles in front of her. Her tone seemed to be much calmer: “Aren’t you still angry with me and my sister?”

“Being angry is just anger, and you helping me is just you helping me. I can still tell the difference between the two things.”

“Then what if I said that I knew my sister’s thoughts later and deliberately hid it from you?”

“I feel really bad about this,” Raku Sakakibara said with a somewhat soothing tone, “But if you think about it carefully, from Nanamigyue’s perspective, there is no need for you to tell me. Of course, this doesn’t mean I’m not angry. If I weren’t angry, I wouldn’t have suddenly moved out.”

I have always attached great importance to my relationship, so my sudden move out was not entirely due to petty temper.

But he didn’t know how to face Jiuliuli.

Sakakibara was convinced that her feelings for him were true, but her starting point was wrong. Regardless of whether the feelings were true or not, she also deceived herself.

The conflict between believing in her and being unable to forgive her made Sakakihara choose to move out and calm down for a while.

“What if I deliberately agreed to my mother’s request and tried to get my sister to go abroad?”

Sakakihara Raku was obviously paused for several seconds, during which he figured out the stakes.

“Qi Mingyue, do you really want Jiu Liuli to go abroad?”

“What do you think, brother?”

Qi Mingyue will definitely not side with Aunt Bertha.

She herself was not very fond of her aunt.

Qi Mingyue’s actions will only accelerate the breakup of the relationship between herself and Jiu Liuli.

As for why Qi Mingyue did this.

Sakakihara turned his head and looked at the girl’s beautiful profile under the streetlight.

First, because she likes herself, she wants to separate herself and Jiuliuli.

Secondly, she knew that Jiu Liuli was deceiving herself, and if she kept her relationship with Jiu Liuli, she would break up with Jiu Liuli after her feelings for Jiu Liuli deepened. Only after her feelings for Jiu Liuli deepened did she realize that Jiu Liuli had been deceiving her. .

That will only make you feel suffocated.

According to Jiuliuli’s character, Jiuliuli, who knows that she has been deceiving her brother, will always suffer from uncomfortable emotions. She will also be very uncomfortable when she is caught between her true feelings and the feelings that she must deceive.

In this case, why not cut the knot with a quick knife? !

Yes, is that so?

Is that so?

A car flew past the zebra crossing in front, and the wind it brought blew the hair on Sakakibara’s forehead.

After thinking about this, Sakakihara lowered his head and was silent for a long time. Then he suddenly smiled and said, “I don’t think we need to continue talking about this matter. Everyone seems unhappy when we talk about it.”

“Thank you.” Tianhai Qimingyue said softly.

“Why are you saying thank you?”

“Thank you for your tolerance.”

Tianhai Qimingyue’s thank you was quite awkward to say.

It was as awkward as when he helped her heal her ankle at the dance.

“There’s no such thing as tolerance. I haven’t even said that I want to forgive Jiu Liuli.”

“Brother knows, I’m not talking about my sister.”

She was saying, thank you for forgiving her.

But to be honest, Qi Mingyue’s little scheme is really uncomfortable, but the ultimate beneficiaries are himself and Jiuliuli. According to that situation, if he and Jiuliuli continue to go forward, the situation will only become more distorted.

That’s not the point of simply moving out and being quiet.

It is really possible for him to run directly to Kyoto.

Sakakibara took a deep breath of the cool night air, soothed the mood in his chest and said, “Nana Mingzuki, can you tell me why you like me?”

“Because you’re so stupid, you’re just the right foil to me.”

Sakakihara laughed: “If you don’t say it, don’t say it. Why do you call me stupid?”

“Because you are stupid to begin with.”

Sakakihara Raku was not upset and followed her across the zebra crossing to the opposite street. The subway station is not far ahead.

“While we are still on the street, what would you like to eat?”

“your treat?”

“The second young lady of the Tianhai family, your family has billions of assets, but you still can’t afford food?”

“I will barely consider it if you treat me to a treat.”

“Then there’s nothing we can do about it. Second Miss Amami said so, so I can only reluctantly invite you back.” Raku Sakakibara happened to see Ichiran Ramen with its shiny sign in front of him, “Why don’t we just go and eat ramen?” Sample?”

Tianhai Qimingyue sighed very naturally: “So your emotional intelligence is not high. If you invite a girl to eat ramen outside, your impression score will be directly deducted to minus 10.”

Of course Sakakihara Raku knew this unspoken rule.

Treating a girl to ramen and beef rice are two taboos on a date.

First, because there are mostly middle-aged male customers inside, if a woman goes in… you can imagine the embarrassing scene of a woman sandwiched among a bunch of uncles. The second reason is that the environment in most ramen restaurants is not good, they are crowded, oily, hot, and the experience is not good.

Girls who are a little more sophisticated will not choose ramen restaurants.

The two of them just arrived at the entrance of the bustling ramen shop, and Sakakihara made a “please” gesture.

This was the etiquette given to him by Qi Mingyue at the tea party before.

“You think I dare not go in?” Tianhai Qi Mingyue stopped while carrying a small schoolbag. Apart from her height, her clothes looked like a high school girl from an aristocratic academy.

“Please.” Sakakibara kept his gesture.

After Tianhai Qimingyue glanced at him, she chose to walk in.

As soon as she entered, she found that she really didn’t fit in here, whether it was the atmosphere inside or the majority of office workers who came here for drinks and meals just after get off work.

Tianhai Qimingyue looked out of place standing here.

Raku Sakakibara took two noodle receipts and walked in, grabbing Tenkai Nanamigetsu who was not far away and walking inside.

Coincidentally, the two double seats in the corner were unoccupied and Sakakihara took her to sit here.

“You sit inside, against the wall.”

Tianhai Qimingyue has no reason to refuse. She doesn’t like to come into contact with other people. The position in the corner is undoubtedly the best for her.

Ichiran Ramen has typical counter-style seating.

Each person has a small seat. The waiter is busy in the kitchen in the center of the bar. After the noodles are finished, he will hand them out behind the bamboo curtain.

The noodles are ready quickly.

The waiter said enthusiastically, “I’ve kept you waiting.” After presenting the noodles, he made a ninety-degree bow behind the bamboo curtain, and then closed the curtain.

The noodles were delicious, and the atmosphere was quite good as the uncles around him were drinking and discussing after get off work, but Sakakihara Raku could see that Tenkai Nanamigetsu was unnatural.

“Is it your first time coming to this kind of store?”

“Um.”

“She is really the second young lady of the Tianhai family.”

“This is not the place you brought me to.” Tianhai Qimingyue seemed a little angry.

“No, I don’t know who came in first. After I came in, I went to the machine to order noodles. Look how good I am. I know you like to eat light food, so I ordered more vegetables with seasonings or ramen with clear soup for you. .”

Sakakihara Raku didn’t have so many scruples and just started eating.

After Tianhai Qimingyue hesitated for a while, he also started eating quietly.

Sakakibara finished his bowl, and then asked the waiter inside to help him add some noodles. He ate two bowls in a row, and suddenly found Tianhai Qimingyue looking at him, and then realized that she had finished her portion.

“Do you still want to eat?”

“No…”

“Oh, that’s good.”

Raku Sakakibara was a little hungry today and ate four bowls in a row. Of course, it was not because he was a big eater, but because this extra portion of noodles was too little and it was a fixed amount. There was no way but to add more noodles a few times.

Tianhai Qimingyue has been watching him from the side.

“Do you want some water?” Raku Sakakihara asked, wiping his mouth.

“I’m not full.” I don’t know why, but my voice is very soft.

“Ah?” Sakakibara laughed, “Don’t you want to eat?”

Tianhai Qimingyue looked at him without saying anything or making a sound.

Sakakihara pointed to a small button behind the salt on her seat, smiled and said, “Press this to call someone over.”

He pressed it for her.

“Okay, just wait.”

The clerk came quickly.

Tianhai Qimingyue stiffly asked for a side dish.

“no problem.”

After the clerk left, Tianhai Qi Mingyue suddenly understood why he had shouted so loudly on purpose just now. She seemed to be angry and said calmly: “Did you do it on purpose?”

“No way. You can call directly or press the button to call the waiter.” Sakakibara laughed more and more happily, until Tianhai Qimingyue suddenly stretched out her hand on his waist, and the smile disappeared instantly, “Eh Hey, don’t, don’t, don’t, huh~ it hurts, it hurts.”

When Sakakibara Raku had almost shouted enough, Amami Nanamigetsu, who was angry inside but had a calm expression on her face, withdrew her hand.

“Why do you keep pinching people’s waist?” Sakakibara cried bitterly.

“Deserved it.”

“.You’d better eat noodles. Be quiet when you eat noodles.”

“I want you to take care of it.”
