Chapter 104: Chapter 104: A Song, A Kind of Longing_1

"We also need a break now. We won’t participate, we’ll just watch and act as judges!" Lin Deng waved his hand, then called over a few other instructors, all standing rigidly by the piano.

After the instructors of each team got everyone back in their positions, only then did Lin Deng say to Gu En, "Start! Any song related to soldiers is fine! Um, start with the team on the far left!"

"Don’t let our instructor’s scary whip-wielding during the day fool you, he’s a real riot when it comes to having fun!" Tan Heqian and He Zhilan murmured, their faces all smiles, clearly looking forward to it.

He Zhilan nodded without answering. She knew that Lin Chan and Lin Deng were cousins, and Lin Deng had grown up with Gu En, so in terms of having fun, probably no one in the capital could compare with these high-ranking officials and their children.

He Zhilan watched as Gu En sat down at the piano. Her piano-playing hands were beautiful, slender and fair. As her fingers moved lightly, the melodious music began to play. As soon as the music started, the talking voices in the hall immediately ceased, and everyone quietly listened to what song she was playing.

"Holy shit!" The music had only played for less than ten seconds when the whole hall erupted in laughter. Tan Heqian almost choked on his saliva, "The national anthem! Gu En is so funny!"

The team on the leftmost side all sang the national anthem along with the music, while the piano-playing Gu En had eyes crinkled in amusement. Clearly, she was deliberately trying to amuse everyone at this time.

Lin Deng gave Gu En a glance, then let the next team take over. This time, Gu En started to get serious.

All the students in the auditorium were of the young generation. Usually, even if they all liked to listen to music, most of them preferred contemporary pop songs. Gu En had played almost half of one army song before someone finally remembered its name and then quietly sang a few lines along with the music.

Then, Gu En chose even more catchy military songs. After a round, none of the teams seemed to have been stumped. Seeing this, the instructors on the side told Gu En to increase the difficulty, "It’s too easy, at this rate, we instructors won’t even get to see our own students perform!"

"Instructor, you’re evil!" someone in the audience heckled.

But the instructor didn’t care, nodding his head, and lifting his own hand, "I am quite tan, being under the sun all day, anyone would get tan. But at least I’m not so dark that you can’t see my face in the dark."

"He Zhilan, the instructors are so funny~" Jiang Biyun completely leaned on He Zhilan, then lowered her head to whisper in He Zhilan’s ear, "Quickly tell me, is your husband also like this? When can you bring your husband out for a stroll?"

"He’s not a dog, why would I take him for a stroll?" He Zhilan was torn between laughing and getting irritated, "My husband isn’t as humorous as Lin Deng and the others. He doesn’t like to talk and is very introverted. Unless necessary, he could go a day without speaking."

Jiang Biyun clearly didn’t believe her, her face accusing He Zhilan of lying.

He Zhilan didn’t know how to explain to Jiang Biyun. He Teng was different from students at regular military schools like Lin Deng. He Teng had joined the army at fifteen, and started receiving regular army training at that age. His naturally quiet temperament only got more introverted after he joined the army.
