Chapter 690: Chapter 699: Music Supervisor (5)

In the world of piano—no, it should be said, within the entire global musical community, a highly renowned maestro! The conductor of the Vienna Royal Philharmonic, a figure celebrated around the world!

His life had been extraordinarily dazzling, his piano playing was simply mesmerizing. In contrast, he was quite strict when it came to taking on apprentices. Now he was already eighty years old, but his disciples could be counted on one hand.

As long as one was his disciple—and moreover, his cherished protégé, even if that person had no reputation at the moment, they were certain to be a genius with innate musical talent and cultivation!

Upon hearing this, Yu Zexiao was actually quite delighted, especially since he was also a fan of John Gruber. If it weren’t for the fact that classical music really wasn’t lucrative anymore, he would’ve liked to abandon his current pop music endeavors and continue his studies!

However, while Yu Zexiao was happy, Jian Anning evidently had some difficulty digesting this news.

It wasn’t that she had any resentment towards John Gruber’s disciples because of her father’s death. It was that, had things not gone awry, that position would have been hers. But now, after many twists and turns, and because of Yu Zexiao’s situation, the role of the cherished protégé was once again connected to her, and it was only natural that she felt a bit uncomfortable.

But this reason, she wouldn’t share with Yu Zexiao.

"Sister Minjun also said that if it weren’t for Master John Gruber’s ill health last time, he would have come to attend the Shangcheng Film Festival, mainly to see you. Although his student is in charge this time, since his student isn’t yet completely independent, as a teacher, he will help guide his disciple."

Jian Anning felt a twinge of jealousy as she thought, "This disciple of his—must be quite favored by him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even oversee the work you collaborate on."

Yu Zexiao was unaware of her thoughts, but out of respect for his idol John Gruber, he felt quite happy.

"That’s great, Anning! You really are my lucky star!"

With that, he gently kissed her on the cheek.

"I wonder what this cherished disciple is like? Probably a man with long hair and a brooding gaze, right?"

Jian Anning shook her head; she didn’t know either. In fact, in the last world youth competition she attended, the ages of the participants ranged from sixteen to twenty-eight. However, John Gruber’s principle for taking on apprentices was generally to be under eighteen years old, as older students were less malleable.

So now, that person must be under twenty-eight, whether male or female, round or flat-faced remained unknown.

"Look, this is what I’ve prepared for our special evening," he said as he pulled her over.

Because he was bored waiting for Jian Anning, he had taken out everything he had prepared. A bottle of red wine had been set aside to breathe, two elegant wine glasses were placed nearby. Moreover, there was a bouquet of flowers in full bloom on the table.

And the bed sheets were tidily spread out—it was clear he was waiting for her to come over.

Yu Zexiao smiled, emitting a warm aura with his entire arms, snuggling up to her intimately: "Anning, I’ve already cleaned up quite nicely, just waiting for you. Let’s—sleep~together~~~"╮(╯▽╰)╭
