Chapter 572: I’ll Fight You for Little Sister
Jiang Xingyi lowered his eyes and whispered, “This doesn’t count.”
Jiang Yu looked at Jiang Chenglang and then at Jiang Xingyi, wondering what would happen if Jiang Jingnian and Jiang Zeyu returned home.
Jiang Xingyi and Jiang Yu went to the piano room.
Both the original Jiang family and the current Jiang family had an empty piano room.
The piano in this room had been especially taken from the Jiang family’s old mansion. When they moved in, they were extremely careful, afraid that they would knock it down.
Jiang Chenglang didn’t even worry about other antiques that were more valuable. He was only worried about this piano.
When Jiang Yu opened the door, Jiang Xingyi fell into a daze when he saw the piano in the room.
He walked to the piano in a daze and gently touched the piano cover with his fingers. The corners of his eyes were actually slightly red.
He called out softly, “Mom…”
Jiang Yu then knew.
Just as she thought, this was Mother Jiang’s legacy.
So, Jiang Xingyi probably inherited her musical talent.
Jiang Yu had no way of knowing what kind of person Mother Jiang was. Her most accurate impression of her was from that sudden dream.
That gentle and kind woman couldn’t be seen clearly, but she had the gentle and tolerant aura of a mother, making people feel at ease. It was as if she was the best harbor, the warmest embrace, and the most reliable arms.
She probably treated Jiang Xingyi the same way.
Jiang Xingyi sniffed lightly before carefully lifting the piano cover.
He tried to play a short piece of music. Perhaps it was because this piano hadn’t been used for a long time, so the tone was slightly off.
After Jiang Xingyi adjusted the tune, he turned to Jiang Yu and said, “Little Sister, shall we start now?”
It seemed like he had already adjusted his mood. Jiang Yu moved a chair and sat beside him. She took out a piece of paper and a pen and said, “Alright, let’s start.”
Hearing the sound of the piano coming from upstairs, Uncle Mo was so excited that his voice was trembling. “Third Young Master is finally willing to come back!”
Jiang Chenglang shook his head. “Xingyi only came here today to borrow the piano. He will be leaving soon.”
“At least today is a breakthrough.” Uncle Mo had a wonderful thought. “After taking the first step, he’ll come here often and then move back here.”
Jiang Chenglang smiled and didn’t say anything.
Uncle Mo said longingly, “Third yYoung Master is back. Second Young Master and Fourth Young Master… Shouldn’t be far behind…”
Jiang Chenglang said softly, “Maybe.”
After listening to Jiang Xingyi play the tune once, Jiang Yu had some ideas in her mind. She picked up the pen and revised the parts of the tune that she felt could be perfected.
Immediately after, Jiang Xingyi played the tune again according to Jiang Yu’s revised tune. As expected, he found that it was much smoother!
However, Jiang Yu was still not satisfied.
“Again.”
After repeating it three or four times, Jiang Yu finally relaxed her brows slightly and revealed an expression that was still very reluctant as she said, “It should be passable now.”
Jiang Xingyi: ???
Wait a minute, this is just passable?
Then, what he wrote before could be called trash?
Jiang Xingyi felt as if he had received an invisible blow…
But he couldn’t say it out loud.
“Let’s do it one last time.”
The high standard and strict boss, Jiang Yu, gave the order to get rid of her identity as a salty fish. Jiang Yu was very strict when it came to things that she hoped to do well.
Of course, Jiang Xingyi did as he was told.
After revising a few more details, Jiang Yu asked spiritually, “Third Brother, what do you think?”
Jiang Xingyi: … If he said that he thought it was great, would he be looked down upon by his little sister?
He asked tentatively, “I think it’s pretty…good?”
He kept an eye on Jiang Yu’s expression. As soon as he noticed something was wrong, he immediately changed his words.
After all, the word “pretty” could be followed by “good”, “bad”, “Average”, or “need to be changed”.
Jiang Xingyi felt like he was a language genius.
Jiang Yu: “It should be enough. Let’s finalize the draft.”
Jiang Xingyi: “Okay!”
He happily kept the score when he heard Jiang Yu say, “But this word…”
Jiang Xingyi said, “Change it! Change it right now! Little Sister, how do you think we should change it?”
Jiang Yu said, “I’m too lazy to change it. You can change it.”
Jiang Xingyi: … Alright.
However, since they had changed the score and the melody had changed, they naturally had to change the words as well. There was actually no objection to this.
The two of them quickly started to change the second score.
The hands of the clock moved slightly.
Jiang Chenglang went out of the study again, but he found that the two of them had not come out yet.
He secretly ran to Uncle Mo and asked, “They haven’t come out yet?”
“No, Young Master.”
Jiang Chenglang thought for a moment and said, “Is there any afternoon tea? I’ll send it over to them.”
Uncle Mo said, “I’ll get the kitchen to prepare it right away.”
When Jiang Chenglang was holding the afternoon tea, he found a legitimate reason and knocked on the door. He asked, “Can I come in?”
Jiang Yu didn’t say anything, but Jiang Xingyi’s annoyed voice sounded, “If I say no, will you not come in?”
Jiang Chenglang: … Of course not.
He waited at the door for a few seconds, but it was still Jiang Xingyi’s voice. “If you want to come in, come in.”
Jiang Chenglang: I don’t know what’s going on, but at that moment, I suddenly had the thought of beating up my younger brother.
He pushed the door open and saw Jiang Xingyi and Jiang Yu sitting very close to each other. The two of them were studying something on a piece of paper.
Even when Jiang Chenglang walked up to the two of them, the two of them didn’t even look up. They were still writing and drawing on the paper.
Jiang Chenglang softened his voice in an attempt to attract Jiang Yu’s attention. “Little Yu, I’ve brought you afternoon tea.”
Jiang Yu twitched her little nose and looked up. When she saw the pastries on the tray, her eyes lit up. “Is this a new flavor?”
Jiang Chenglang had never noticed if there was any new flavor in his kitchen. In the past, he had only eaten at home a few times. After Jiang Yu came back, there was a lot more. Although he had urged the kitchen to take care of Jiang Yu.., it was impossible for him to remember such details.
Jiang Chenglang didn’t say anything, but Jiang Yu didn’t need his answer either.
She put down her pen and went toward the food. “Third Brother, look for a change first. I’m going to rest for a while.”
Jiang Xingyi: … I was caught off guard and have been abandoned.
Jiang Chenglang: Hmph, I’ll fight you for Little Sister.
With the food, they parted ways.
The two men looked at each other and awkwardly turned their heads away.
Jiang Xingyi suddenly started to think. Since he had already walked in, why not…
Just move in here?
He could even see his little sister more often!
