The Pianist And The Lady[Republic Of China Gl] Chapter 60

Chapter 60

“I haven’t thought about it yet, Aunt Qiao.” Lan Yuan answered truthfully. She thought it would be good to be with Shen Xian in Jinling.

“The current domestic situation is very turbulent, and Ann has not finished college. I hope…” Joe hesitated.

She hopes that Ann can return to the UK, but she also respects the opinions of her daughter and Lan Yuan.

Lan Yuan understood what Joe had not finished, and remained thoughtful and silent.

“The education in the UK is pretty good. You can also study there and try out the new environment. If you don’t adapt, you can come back.” Joe told Lan Yuan sincerely.

Lan Yuan knew that piano was Chen Xian’s dream, that she wanted to be an excellent performer, and that she also knew how much Chen Xian liked reading. At this moment, she suddenly wanted to accept Joe’s suggestion——

“Don’t worry, Auntie, I will communicate with Shen Xian.” Lan Yuan said.

“Okay, thank you, Lan Yuan.” Joe said excitedly. She was very grateful to Lan Yuan.

“Even if she doesn’t come back to study, she still comes to the UK to visit us occasionally, Ann…” Joe choked up, “Ann’s father misses her very much and needs her very much. Ann is his spiritual support.”

Joe didn’t dare to mention Shen Xian’s father too much, so he stopped talking.

The three of them sat at a table and ate happily. After the meal, Joe left the place and Shen Xian went to the pier to see her off.

Before boarding the ship, Joe wanted to talk to Ann about his father, but in the end he didn’t.

“Come and see me occasionally. I hope you can come over this Christmas.” Joe hugged Shen Xian and said.

Shen Xian did not promise his mother and gave an uncertain answer, “I will go back to see you when I have the chance.”

After sending his mother away, Shen Xian went to the tailor shop to find Hunter——

“Would you like to work at a record label?”

Hunter has already found a job for Shen Xian, composing music as an accompanist for singers.

“How’s the salary?” Shen Xian got straight to the point.

“300 yuan a month.” Hunter continued.

“It’s not bad. It’s enough for Yuanyuan and I’s living expenses.” Shen Xian was very satisfied.

“Are you really willing to be an accompanist for those people and stay behind the scenes?” Hunter asked. She still hoped that Shen Xian could become a real pianist.

“No matter what, I just play the piano, it doesn’t matter in front of or behind the scenes.” Shen Xian said with a smile.

In her heart, no matter where she is, as long as she can still play the piano, it is not an idle dream.

“Does Lan Yuan know?” Hunter asked.

“I’ll tell her when I get home.” Chen Xian replied.

“It’s not like before between the two of you. Your life is all about food, rice, oil and salt. Don’t be too romantic.” Hunter reminded Shen Xian.

“Don’t carry everything yourself. I’m really short of money. My uncle has saved a lot over the years. I don’t want to see you have a hard time because of money.” Hunter said earnestly.

“Can you hope I get better?” Shen Xian patted Hunter’s shoulder heavily.

“Let’s go, old man. I’m going home to cook. I’ll go to work tomorrow.” Shen Xian waved goodbye.

In the evening, the two of them sat at the same table to eat——

“Chen Xian, do you want to finish college?” Lan Yuan asked tentatively at the dinner table.

“I don’t think much about it anymore.” Shen Xian paused and said.

She did not want to return to England, and her own living expenses could not support her study.

“But it would be a pity.” Lan Yuan could see that Chen Xian loved music.

“What’s there to regret!” Shen Xian grabbed Lan Yuan’s hand and said with a smile.

“If one day you want to go back to study, I will support you.” Lan Yuan knew that it would be useless to say more.

She also hopes that Shen Xian can continue studying, and she is willing to accompany him to the end of the world.

“By the way, I’m going to work tomorrow to make music for people.” Shen Xian told Lan Yuan the good news.

“So fast?” Lan Yuan was surprised.

“Yes, I can support my family in the future.” Shen Xian said happily.

Lan Yuan smiled and planned to find a job tomorrow. She couldn’t rely on Shen Xian for all expenses.

“You are so good at embroidery, good at mathematics, good calligraphy, and good Chinese painting. If you are not good at it, you can also teach people to play the piano or dance.” Shen Xian could see the sadness in Lan Yuan’s eyes and comforted her.

“Don’t be burdened. Take your time and find a job you like.” Shen Xian patted Lan Yuan’s hand.

“Okay, I’ll listen to you.” Lan Yuan said with a smile, pretending to be very happy!

In fact, she didn’t even know what she could do.

After eating, the two of them washed up and lay together again——

“I’ll give you what I owe you that night.” Shen Xian said while hugging Lan Yuan.

Lan Yuan knew what Shen Xian’s words meant, and her ears turned red instantly, feeling embarrassed.

Chen Xian simply turned off the light, took the initiative to cling to Lan Yuan, and took off his clothes bit by bit.

“Do you need me to teach you? I’m more experienced.” Shen Xian whispered to Lan Yuan in a low voice, his hot and moist breath spraying on Lan Yuan’s ears.

“I…I can teach myself.” Lan Yuan kissed Chen Xian’s mouth, because——

She didn’t want Shen Xian to continue talking, otherwise it would be her legs that would become weak later.

Under the quilt, Lan Yuan slowly untied Chen Xian’s clothes and kissed every inch of Chen Xian’s body…

Chen Xian cooperated with Lan Yuan’s movements, catering to her bit by bit.

Finally, Lan Yuan came inside. She felt the feeling of being wrapped in warmth. She was very satisfied and reluctant to leave.

Shen Xian also experienced pure enjoyment, with physical and psychological satisfaction.

After the game is over——

“I’ll wash the sheets tomorrow.” Lan Yuan continued to nestle in Shen Xian’s arms, hugging her waist, and said softly.

But the next day, Shen Xian got up early, washed the sheets, made breakfast, and then went to work.

When Lan Yuan woke up at noon, she still couldn’t figure out why she was clearly the one who dominated the whole situation last night, but in the end she was still eaten up.

But Lan Yuan also had to admit that Chen Xian’s hands——

The fingers are slender, smooth and flexible, which are not only suitable for playing the piano, but also have innate advantages in that area. They are diligent in practicing and have good technique.

After searching for three days in a row, Lan Yuan could not find a suitable job.

Most of them dislike her for being a prostitute or for having no education. They don’t accept female accountants who know how to settle accounts, or female teachers who teach painting.

Lan Yuan feels that she is useless.

“I’m sure I can find it. Don’t be discouraged. You still have me.” Shen Xian held Lan Yuan in his arms to comfort her.

“I’m not sad at all, I just feel like why should we women suffer?” Lan Yuan said angrily.

This afternoon Lan Yuan and a man applied for the job of accounting clerk at the same time. The manager didn’t even give her a chance to speak and asked for the man!

The manager also said nonsense, “The world is not peaceful. If you are like this, you should quickly find someone to marry and raise children.”

Lan Yuan just threw up her sleeves and left. Now that she has been with Shen Xian for a long time, she no longer likes to hold back.

“The patriarchal society has always looked down upon women, so we cannot succumb to such a society.” Shen Xian said angrily.

“You are right.” Lan Yuan expressed support.

“I’ll look for a job again tomorrow!” Lan Yuan was full of motivation again.

“We Yuanyuan will definitely be able to find it.” Shen Xian said with a crooked eyebrow.

“By the way, how is your work?” Lan Yuan realized that she had ignored Shen Xian in her job search.

“It’s not bad. It’s quite relaxing to work nine to five, playing piano and recording records.” Shen Xian said leisurely.

The next day, on the way to find a job, Lan Yuan passed by Hunter’s store. It was not rude to enter the store, so Lan Yuan came in and said hello.

“Good afternoon, uncle.”

Hunter wore glasses and used a sewing machine. While making clothes, he asked Lan Yuan to sit down.

“Uncle’s craftsmanship is really one of the best!” Lan Yuan praised as she looked at the finished cheongsam in the store.

Hunter stopped working on the sewing machine and chatted with Lan Yuan, “All the ladies in Jinling love to wear cheongsam. I will make one for you another day.”

In Hunter’s mind, Lan Yuan looks better in cheongsam than those ladies who pretend to be fashionable.

“But it’s really difficult to embroider on a cheongsam. Old man, I have bad eyesight now. It takes too much effort.” Hunter said with emotion. He took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.

“Are you talking about this style of embroidery?” Lan Yuan pointed to the embroidery on a certain cheongsam.

“This kind of double-sided embroidery is too labor-intensive. It takes me three days to embroider one piece of clothing, and I have been rushing to make orders every day recently.” Hunter said weakly.

“I can help you. I know how to do this and have learned it before.” Lan Yuan has always been grateful to Hunter, and now she finally has a chance to repay him.

“Really?” Hunter brought a piece of scrap cloth and asked Lan Yuan to embroider it for him.

After a while, Lan Yuan had embroidered a gardenia, which was perfect.

“This…” Hunter’s hands trembled as he looked at Lan Yuan’s skills, “This is better than the skills I have practiced for ten years. Lan girl, you are a genius!”

“How can I compare to my uncle’s three-legged cat kung fu?” Lan Yuan said modestly.

“Chen Xian, do you agree to work here? I’ll pay you a salary.” Hunter liked Lan Yuan’s skills so much that finding an embroiderer was as difficult as going to heaven.

It’s not that it’s hard to find an embroiderer who can embroider. The main reason is that Hunter has a bad temper and doesn’t like working with strangers. He always likes to be a loner. In this life, he has never even thought about starting a family.

“Actually, I have been looking for a job, and Shen Xian has always supported my work.” Lan Yuan thought it would be good to work with Hunter, and she was very good at embroidery.

“Then you come to my place, 9 to 5, 200 yuan a month.” Hunter immediately offered terms that were twice as good as those of ordinary embroidery girls.

“Okay, then I’ll go to work now, but you have to teach me to step on a sewing machine, which I’m not very good at yet.” Lan Yuan agreed.

Suddenly I had a job and I was very happy.

“No problem.” Hunter immediately pulled Blue Kite to his post.

Lan Yuan also told Shen Xian the good news when he got home in the evening.

Shen Xian is also very happy about this. On the one hand, Lan Yuan can do the job he likes. On the other hand, Hunter is a reliable person and Lan Yuan will not be bullied.

“When I learn how to make clothes, the first one will be for you.” Lan Yuan held Chen Xian’s hand and said.

“Would you like to take some measurements first?” Shen Xian raised his eyebrows, his eyes unclear.

Lan Yuan’s eyes are puzzled. She hasn’t learned yet. Why is she taking measurements now?

It wasn’t until Shen Xian pulled herself into the bed, measured the size and touched it by herself that Lan Yuan realized how thoughtful this person was.

“Your waist is so thin!”

“It’s so sexy here!”

“I haven’t measured my bust yet, don’t hide from me!”

“Whoever makes clothes has to touch that place!”

“Why are you still biting!”

Another ridiculous night almost delayed Lan Yuan from going to work the next day.
