Chapter 49: Which Teacher Did You Learn From

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ji Ning looked at her brother and sister who stayed at home. She silently tightened her grip on her spoon. For the first time, she bravely brought up her idea. She asked, “Sister-in-law, I have a lesson with my violin teacher today. Could you accompany me?”

Without waiting for Shen Hanxing to respond, Ji Yan frowned slightly, and his dark gaze fell on her. He said, “Tl get the driver to send you over. You’re already so big, you still need someone to accompany you there?”

“L..” Ji Ning shrank back a little and looked timidly at her serious and cold big brother. After a pause, she turned her gaze to Shen Hanxing and looked at her pitifully. Her eyes were slightly red. Ji Ning said, “I’m just a little nervous when I think about being alone with the teacher. After all, it’s my first

time…I-… Sister-in-law…”

Her thin and small face was filled with attachment and unease. It was as though she would burst out crying if Shen Hanxing rejected her.

The children who grew up in the slums were all stubborn. Even when they were beaten up, they still had to stubbornly have the last say. How could there be a small crybaby that could cry so easily?

This was the first time Shen Hanxing realized that she was so afraid of other people crying. She quickly replied, “Okay, I’ll send you over after breakfast.”

Ji Ning instantly revealed a satisfied smile, revealing two shallow dimples on her cheeks. This was when the others realized that the girl who had always let her hair down to cover her cheeks, as though she wanted to stay in a dark corner, had pinned her long hair behind her delicate and small ears. More

than half of her face was revealed now.

Her once timid appearance was nowhere to be seen. She looked like a slightly shy and ordinary little girl.

“sister-in-law,” Ji Qian bit her lips. She wanted to stick to her sister-in-law, but she could not find a legitimate reason to do so. It was not like she could be thick-skinned enough to go to Maestro Lin Ran’s house with Ji Ning. Thus, she was very dissatisfied.

For the first time, she felt that it was so boring to be the daughter of a rich family who had nothing to do.

Shen Hanxing looked over when she heard her voice. She did not seem to sense Ji Qian’s annoyance. Shen Hanxing said, “You just returned home. Stay at home and rest. Wait for me to bring something back for you to eat.”

Shen Hanxing was going to bring food back just for her?

“Okay,” Ji Qian instantly tuned from being sullen to cheerful as she smiled brightly.

The way his sisters fought for attention was really unsightly, and Ji Zhou curled his lips in disgust.

Ji Yan’s eyes darkened as he watched this scene. For the first time, he felt that his father had left too many children. Why were all of them pestering his wife? Unfortunately, his wife was easy to talk to. She would also mostly concede to every plea, and she was very well-tempered as well.

“Mr. Ji,” Shen Hanxing wiped the corner of his mouth. She smiled and stood up, then walked and stopped in front of Ji Yan. She bent down and asked, “How are you feeling today?”

Ji Yan’s body still had the disinfectant smell from the surgery yesterday, and his face was a little pale. The breakfast that Ji Yan ate was different from theirs. The kitchen had specially prepared a meal to be consumed after the surgery. It was light and nourishing, but Shen Hanxing realized that he only ate

a small amount.

Although the doctor said that it was a minor surgery, it involved breaking and reconnecting the long and crooked bones. One could imagine what kind of pain he would experience after the anesthetic wore off.

“Tm okay.”

Ji Yan shifted his gaze, not looking at her beautiful face that was very close to him. He said lightly, “My wife, please go and come back early.”

The two of them exchanged a look that only they could understand.

“What’s wrong, sister-in-law?” Ji Qian subconsciously asked, “Is there something wrong with Big Brother’s body?”

The conversation between the two of them was obviously very normal. However, for some reason, it gave people the feeling that the conversation contained a little secret between them. There seemed to be a cryptic tacit understanding that no one else could intrude on.

Shen Hanxing could not help but laugh. She replied, “It’s nothing. If you’re bored at home, you can read more books.”

“Reading more would always make you smarter.’

When Maestro Lin Ran returned to the country this time, he stayed in a small villa on the outskirts of the city. The environment was quiet, and there was a beautiful wetland park nearby. It was a very suitable place to live.

When Shen Hanxing brought Ji Ning to visit, Lin Ran had just finished his daily practice. He warmly welcomed the two of them.

“Mrs. Ji,” Lin Ran’s eyes were kind and full of appreciation. “I wanted to ask you something yesterday but it wasn’t very convenient. Actually, I wanted to know whether you also play the violin? I wonder which teacher you learned from.”

Yesterday, Shen Hanxing had casually moved the bow and strings of Ji Ning’s violin. She helped Ji Ning adjust the sound of the violin discreetly in areas others couldn’t see.

Tuning was something easier said than done. If it wasn’t for her extraordinary knowledge and understanding of the violin, it would have been very difficult to tune it accurately.

Last night, he saw Shen Hanxing casually fiddle with the violin twice. After that, the violin which was originally slightly out of tune was tuned perfectly. He was very surprised to see that.

“Me?”

Shen Hanxing was a little surprised. After being stunned for a moment, she smiled and said, “Maestro Lin, you’re flattering me. I’m sure you’ve heard some things about me. I didn’t come from a good background. How could I have the chance to learn from a great teacher? I just dabbled in it a little when I

was bored.”
