Chapter 12: A Piece That I Created Myself

“She actually came. I thought the rumors were fake.”
“What rumors?”
“I heard that Professor Bai intends to take the young miss of the Jiang family as a disciple.”!!
“This Jiang Ran is too amazing. She actually made professor Bai personally come.”
Professor Bai’s appearance drew many people to gather around, especially the children of the nobles present. They took this opportunity to continuously promote their daughter.
“Hello, Professor Bai, this is my daughter. She won the first prize in the National Youth Piano Competition. I hope you can give her some pointers.”
“Hello, teacher. I’ve been learning piano for fifteen years.”
Unfortunately, the promotion of so many people did not move professor Bai.
Because she knew that there were many people who could play the piano, but it was rare to be able to compose such a beautiful piece of music like that day at the piano shop.
This Miss Jiang must be very talented.
Before she came, Professor Bai asked his assistant with some uncertainty, “Are you sure it’s her? Jiang Ran?”
She was watching the video of Jiang Ran participating in the piano competition. Her performance was normal, and in the end, she only got second place.
Such a soulless playing was far from the sound she heard near the piano competition that day.
The assistant also said with some uncertainty, “Professor, this is a video of Jiang Ran’s competition three years ago. Perhaps her level has already improved. Why don’t you go and investigate?”
Professor Bai walked in front of the Jiang family. Jiang Ran immediately called out respectfully, “Teacher Bai.”
Jiang Ran was so nervous that her hands were trembling. If she could really be this person’s disciple, then her reputation in the entire capital would rise to another level.
Perhaps, in the future, even young master ye would not be able to match her.
Professor Bai nodded at Jiang Ran and asked, “Has Miss Jiang written any new songs recently?”
Jiang ran was dumbfounded by the question. How could she know how to compose music? But when Professor Bai asked, she could not say no, so she smiled and said,
“Yes, I’ve been trying to create new compositions recently.”
Professor Bai seemed to be even more satisfied and nodded. “You’re a good kid who works hard.”
When Wei Juan saw this, she immediately arranged for Jiang Ran to play a song on the spot. “I know that the professor must take an assessment on the spot when accepting disciples. Since you’re here today, why don’t you listen to our Ran Ran’s performance?”
The other guests gathered around.
They were both envious and jealous of Jiang Ran.
“In my opinion, Jiang Ran is almost set. I didn’t see Professor Bai’s amiable look. It seems that she only treats Jiang Ran differently.”
“The young miss of the Jiang family is really too talented.”
Jiang Ran couldn’t help but feel smug under everyone’s praise.
Suddenly, she looked at Jiang Yu, who was calmly watching from the side.
Jiang Ran had an idea. She went forward and held Jiang Yu’s hand. She took the initiative to introduce, “Teacher, I want to ask for a chance for my sister. Although she has just learned the piano, she has made great progress. I hope you can listen to her performance too.”
Jiang Yu seemed to be able to see through Jiang Ran. “Are you sure?”
Jiang Ran smiled and said, “Yes. Actually, I’m not the only daughter in the Jiang family. Jiang Yu is also very hardworking. Teacher, what do you think?”
In the eyes of everyone, Jiang Ran’s move seemed to be helping her sister.
But in reality, she just wanted to compare Jiang Yu, who could not play the piano, to herself so that she could showcase her prowess.
When Professor Bai heard that Jiang Yu’s surname was also Jiang, she nodded in agreement.
Jiang Hai and Wei Juan looked at each other, worried that Jiang Yu would bring shame to the family.
But since they had already said that, they could only look at them nervously.
Fortunately, Jiang Ran was the first to go on stage.
Jiang Ran played the music score that she had prepared for a long time. The rhythm was very strong, and there wasn’t a single mistake.
It could be considered a standard demonstration, but it lacked a bit of spirituality.
Professor Bai listened quietly, but there was no expression of surprise on her face. Instead, she felt that Jiang Ran’s level had not improved much compared to three years ago.
This was not the same person that she had heard that day.
After realizing that she might have found the wrong person, professor Bai even showed a flash of disappointment.
However, the crowd did not notice it. Instead, they started clapping enthusiastically.
Jiang Ran stood up from the piano and retreated to the side. “Sister, it’s your turn.”
Jiang Yu walked to the piano and sat down.
Turning her head, she said to the crowd, “The song that I’m playing is a song that I created myself.”
Upon hearing that she had even created it herself, Jiang Ran covered her mouth and nearly laughed out loud.
Jiang Yu’s so-called self-creation should be extremely chaotic and polluting her ears!
The other guests had never seen Jiang Yu play the piano before. Instead, they pricked up their ears seriously.
Jiang Yu’s impressive posture seemed to be quite impressive.
Following that, Jiang Yu played the piece that she had just finished arranging yesterday.
The unfamiliar notes had a cathartic effect.
Gradually, everyone quieted down.
