After looking through the sheet music, Liu Manman unexpectedly found that it seemed pretty good.
"Is this really something that can be written in a day?" Liu Manman couldn't believe it.
"I had already set the main melody, so the rest came together quickly," An Siyao replied, following what Xia Yu had said earlier.
"Did you know that one day would be enough?" Liu Manman turned to Xia Yu.
Xia Yu nodded.
Feeling helpless, Liu Manman began to doubt herself.
It wasn't just that An Siyao was able to do something she thought impossible, but Xia Yu's trust in An Siyao was something she couldn't accept.
Were the things I denied so natural in their eyes that they wouldn't even have any doubts?
Is this the world of geniuses?
Just like the protagonists in comics.
The protagonist team works together to accomplish the impossible, and am I just the embarrassing bystander who shouts "this is impossible" on the side?
"Let me calm down for a moment." Sitting on a nearby sofa, Liu Manman lost her spirit for ten minutes, had a bottle of Cola, and finally regained her energy.
"Let's give it a try," she said.
Just by looking at the sheet music, she couldn't tell much, only by actually playing it could she know how good the piece was.
"This is a piece for guzheng, xiao, and sheng. Do you know how to play the sheng too?" Liu Manman looked at An Siyao in surprise.
"I'll play the xiao," An Siyao said.
"But I don't know how to play the sheng!" Liu Manman looked back at Xia Yu.
Xia Yu nodded: "I can."
"Then let's do it," Liu Manman said with full vigor.
"No," An Siyao shook her head in refusal. "I don't know how to play the xiao yet."
"What? Then how will you play?" Liu Manman looked at An Siyao in disbelief.
"It's fine, I'll learn it in three or four days," An Siyao replied.
"How is that possible? Right, Xia Yu?" Liu Manman turned to Xia Yu again.
Xia Yu nodded, not in praise of her words, but in agreement with An Siyao.
"Then let's practice together three or four days later," Xia Yu said.
Liu Manman was about to say something else, but an idea struck her mind.
This scene felt familiar, just like when they were composing yesterday!
Yes, this was also the trust between geniuses! As long as An Siyao was willing, she could definitely learn the xiao in three or four days!
If a piece could be composed in a day, why couldn't a musical instrument be learned in three or four days?
"Then let's practice together," Liu Manman looked at Xia Yu again.
"No." Xia Yu also shook his head and refused, "I'm not proficient with the sheng yet, and I need three or four days to practice."
So not only were there problems with the xiao, but also with the sheng!
However, as long as there was momentum, all difficulties could be overcome, right?
"I believe in you!" Liu Manman said with a serious expression.
At this moment, she felt her growth; she was one step closer to being a genius!
"Then see you four days later," picking up An Siyao's sheng, Xia Yu said, "This, please lend it to me. I didn't bring my sheng over."
With Liu Manman, the two left An Siyao's house and returned to their own home.
On the way back, Liu Manman calmed down.
She had just believed in Xia Yu and An Siyao based on her aura. Now that the aura had disappeared, doubts emerged in her mind.
"How far have you gone with your Sheng?" Liu Manman asked.
Xia Yu picked up the Sheng and played a tune of two little rabbits.
Although it sounded okay, how could this level be enough! Liu Manman was roaring in her heart.
She then called An Siyao to inquire about her level of playing the Xiao flute.
An Siyao played her a practice tune.
The tune was not of two little rabbits, which made Liu Manman breathe a sigh of relief. But she was even more worried about An Siyao than Xia Yu because:
You paused in the middle, didn't you! You can't even play a practice tune well!
Liu Manman was pessimistic about the future.
What kind of people are these two I am with!
Forget it, anyway, the third piece is a surprise, it's no big deal even if it's gone.
After giving up on herself, Liu Manman relaxed and took out the sheet music to practice her Guzheng part casually.
On the other side, Xia Yu did not rush to practice the Sheng, but went to An Siyao's and started teaching her the Xiao flute.
Four days passed quickly, and there were two days left to submit the video and audio of the third piece.
That morning, Liu Manman was rehearsing the Guzheng in the piano room in a casual manner, not really focusing and maintaining an indifferent attitude.
Both Xia Yu and An Siyao started almost from scratch. I am the strongest now, and there is no need to put in any effort.
No matter how she thought about it, the third piece was impossible to succeed, and there was no use in trying.
Besides, she had noticed that Xia Yu spent very little time practicing the Sheng each day and spent most of his time in his room doing who-knows-what.
He claimed to believe in An Siyao and that he could play the Sheng well in four days, but in reality, he didn't believe in himself, did he?
That's why he's so lax!
As the sacrificial lamb, I am really too dedicated to still spend four hours a day seriously practicing.
After finishing a piece, Liu Manman lamented that her earnest and hardworking personality would surely put her at a disadvantage in society.
Little did she know that Xia Yu's music level had already reached LV5, and since he was playing his own composition along with the skills of the Xiao flute, mastering the Sheng in a short time would not be a problem.
As for An Siyao, she was using a cheat similar to a memory experience.
"Liu Manman!" Xia Yu's voice came from downstairs, it was time to go to An Siyao's place.
"Coming!" Placing the Guzheng in the bag and carrying it on her back, Liu Manman walked downstairs.
When the two arrived at An Siyao's practice room, An Siyao had been waiting for them for a while.
"Let's begin."
Watching An Siyao and Xia Yu take out their Xiao flute and Sheng with serious expressions, Liu Manman couldn't help but smile.
These two looked quite professional.
The performance began, starting with An Siyao's turn.
A melodious sound of the Xiao flute rang out, the sound turning and changing, peaceful and natural.
Liu Manman's heart jolted, the flute seemed to be as good as her own playing.
Then, the harmony of the Sheng sounded.
The Xiao flute and Sheng intertwined and circled, inseparable.
This Sheng ...
Liu Manman's heart was filled with panic. When it was time for her part, she hurriedly joined in playing, but her timing was off by a beat. During the performance, her skills were inferior to those of the flute and reed.
After the song was over, Liu Manman was extremely embarrassed under the gazes of Xia Yu and An Siyao.
Why are you two so skilled?
Didn't you both not know how to play just four days ago?
Could it be that the trust between geniuses is real, and Xia Yu's lack of practice is just the arrogance of a genius?
As an ordinary person, just a little negligence, and I become a burden?
Ashamed, Liu Manman bowed and apologized, "I'm very sorry, I will work overtime to practice when I go back tonight!"
"I'll teach you." Xia Yu took over the guzheng on the side.
An Siyao picked up the flute and continued to play. The sheng was just an accompaniment, and the guzheng needed to work with the flute. It could be practiced without the sheng as well.
Liu Manman, who originally thought she was the best, ranked last in the exam, and her mood was complicated as she received guidance from the two.
