Chapter 539: A hunter in her backyard.
As the car journeyed to back to her house, Alix was treated to the gossip and updates on everything that she had missed while she was away. Grandpa Tai did not hold back, even telling her the stories about strangers she did not know. The old man was talkative, like Dark Death and by the time the car pulled up to the front of the building, Alix was no sure if his mouth still had any saliva. Surely, it had to be dry from over use.
"Oh, before i forget." He put an arm on her hand before she could follow auntie Mo out of the car. "That so called rumored teacher of yours master Rong came by the school before we closed for the lunar new year holidays. In your industry, he is considered quite a legend so quite a few students and teachers were making a fuss. It took everything in me not to slap him in the face, i heard from Caishen about what he did to you."
Alix felt a small spark of anger light up in her chest like a firework set to go off but then it was extinguished quickly. It was a good day, she just didn’t have it in her to lose her temper and break any jaws.
"What did he want, where did he go? Who was with him, did they enter my office or the students composition room? Did he enter the musical orchid house or touch any of our music instruments?"
She blasted him with questions. A sly snake like master Rong showing up in her territory when she was not around, he surely came with ill intentions.
"Which students did he talk to?"
Grandpa Tai saw that she was interested and his energy increased. He felt justified in sharing the news with her, he had a feeling that master Rong was up to something.
"He talked to that young girl Nana extensively, the one that plays the piano beautifully. One of the famous piano associations called her the next Ye Zidi." He folded his face distastefully, showing that he did not appreciate that comparison.
