Chapter 101: As Long As You’re Happy, Like
Huo Jincheng stopped saying anything further.
It was only after they reached the restaurant and had lunch that he brought up a question he had held for a long time.
"Zhi Zhi, are you sure you don’t want to go to the Music Academy? I just don’t understand why you wouldn’t, with your incredible talent. I never asked you before, as I assumed you had your reasons. But if you want to change your mind, it’s still not too late. I can help you get into the best Music Academy."
Lu Xingzhi held a cup of tea, taking a small sip. She lowered her eyes and after a moment, lifted them to look at him, "When I was twelve, I had already received an admission letter from Curtis Music Academy."
Huo Jincheng wasn’t surprised, only curious as to why she didn’t go.
"Is your English so good because you specifically learned it for that?"
"No. My piano and English were both taught by my father. I was only twelve then, and he and my grandparents couldn’t bear to send me abroad. But I didn’t expect that he would pass away that year." When Lu Xingzhi spoke of her family, a shadow passed over her eyes.
For a moment, Huo Jincheng didn’t know what to say, his heart ached slightly.
