Chapter 330: The Truth from 20 Years Ago_3
After witnessing Gan Yanyu's performance, Tuoba Jianhui felt both angry and puzzled.
He couldn't accept that after all these years, Gan Hua still couldn't forget the past, to the extent of letting her granddaughter get involved, learning such a "dangerous" performance style.
Thus, during the preliminary of the Yingqin Cup.
Tuoba Jianhui said those words to Gan Yanyu.
That day, he deliberately targeted Gan Yanyu.
In fact, it was Tuoba Jianhui's final message to Gan Hua:
"I have let go, I hope you have too."
"Let our generation's obsessions die with our generation..."
Scene after scene from the past flooded his mind.
The fate of those madmen back then was vividly clear.
Tuoba Jianhui will resolve it all...as the former old leader.
It should have been like this.
.....
But what Tuoba Jianhui hadn't expected.
Was the uncertain factor of "Lin Tian".
This pianist whose music perfectly complemented Gan Yanyu's performance, possessing an incredibly terrifying creative ability.
Turning the stage completely into a performance show for the two of them.
The cellist who could fully unleash the soul of classical music, and a pianist who effortlessly created music that perfectly fit them both.
That stage left Tuoba Jianhui stunned.
In a trance, something had stirred again in his heart, something stagnant for a long time.
At that moment, a thought might have crossed Tuoba Jianhui's mind.
——Perhaps, they can?
So, in the final scoring, he gave an "A+" rating.
This was something Lin Tian only learned of later.
Yet it didn't prevent Tuoba Jianhui from being a petty old miser.
Before leaving, he tried to flaunt in front of Lin Tian, but Lin Tian gave him no face and scolded him thoroughly.
Afterward, Tuoba Jianhui left crestfallen.
Though they haven't met since, Tuoba Jianhui secretly provided a lot of help to Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu.
For example, the Xiao Bang International Piano Competition was recommended by Tuoba Jianhui for Lin Tian to participate in.
.....
Everything seemed to come full circle.
But this made Lin Tian's feelings even more complex.
Is there really a need to continue advocating for classical music?
If they continue down this route, what's waiting for Gan Yanyu might be nothing but scars.
Looking at it this way.
Isn't Gan Yanyu becoming a mere pawn...?
Becoming a tool for Sir Gan to fulfill his unrealized dreams from the past.
Compared to music—
Lin Tian cared more about Gan Yanyu.
"....."
Lin Tian needed to talk to Gan Yanyu.
He absolutely couldn't accept Gan Yanyu being covered in wounds for her pursuits, only to end up as a pawn for the previous generation.
"Thank you, Mr. Yao Han."
Lin Tian stood up,
"This meal was great, I'll treat you next time....."
"Hey, hey, don't leave yet."
Yao Han waved his hand, stopping Lin Tian,
"Don't rush, since you're here, don't you want to learn about your competitors?"
"No need."
This was something Lin Tian wasn't worried about.
Thanks to the data expert He Zhichen, he always had first-hand information about the competition.
"No, no, no, there are definitely things you don't know."
Yao Han smiled mysteriously.
Seeing Yao Han's insistence, Lin Tian sat down doubtfully.
Just what does He Zhichen not know?
"There's one contestant you must focus on, Mr. Lin Tian, regardless of anything."
"In a few days, news of his official participation in the Dragon Violin Cup will shock the entire circle."
"He is a legendary King of Pop Music, a genuine musical monster, who has actually been playing the cello for many years, yet no one expected him to switch to professional cellist this year!"
"Mr. Lin Tian, your next opponent is the pinnacle of pop music!"
