"Go for something light; I need to control my weight recently."
"What's your highest weight?"
"That's a secret."
Chi Linyue simply didn't say; as the saying goes, a woman's age and weight are things you shouldn't ask about, because they're very sensitive about these.
"But you're not even fat."
"Anyway, none of your business!"
Linyue playfully scolded.
Xu Lin chuckled, "How about we pick a restaurant where I eat meat and you eat vegetables?"
Chi Linyue nodded.
Later at the restaurant, Chi Linyue indeed only ate vegetables and a plate of cucumbers, and had just a little bit of rice.
When they got home that evening, Chi Linyue changed into a simple set of pajamas in her room.
Just like before, Xu Lin grabbed a bottle of some unknown brand of red wine from the bar and started drinking.
"Are you still playing the piano?"
Chi Linyue asked him.
"Do you want to listen?"
Chi Linyue nodded with some anticipation, "I'd like to hear your two new pieces."
"Then I'll play a bit."
"And record a video, so I can listen later!"
"No problem."
So, Xu Lin and Chi Linyue went to the piano room, set up the phone for recording just like last time. But this time there were two videos, recorded separately.
Xu Lin gathered his feelings, sat in front of the piano, and started playing with even more skillful technique.
Xu Lin finished quickly, leaving Chi Linyue wanting more.
"It sounds even better than before."
"Maybe you're imagining it."
Xu Lin laughed.
"It's not an illusion, it actually sounds better."
Chi Linyue exclaimed, "Your piano-playing techniques are getting more masterful. Without seeing your face, you'd think some piano master was playing!"
"I can't presume to be a master."
"Why not post it on your TikTok and see what others think?"
Chi Linyue said, "I bet the feedback will be great!"
"Then I'll upload it."
Though Xu Lin didn't admit it out loud, his piano skills were indeed strong now. Being someone with natural talent, he mastered skills quickly. Everyone knows that getting skilled means practicing repeatedly. How many times? It depends on the person, since some are slower and some are quicker; thus, there's no universal standard. But Xu Lin had the advantage of a learning gift, which condensed the number of times he needed, and his intuition was stronger than most, making it easier for him to grasp and even excel in any field fast, reaching levels of mastery.
Give him some time, and he can elevate a skill to the extraordinary. What you spend a lifetime mastering, he might reach your level in no time.
Ten minutes later.
In Chi Linyue's room, Xu Lin was using Chi Linyue's desktop while she sat on the bed checking TikTok feedback.
This was the first time Xu Lin truly stayed in Chi Linyue's room; he said the laptop he used before was left at the office, so he used her desktop, thus staying in her room.
Chi Linyue was switching between the two videos, the likes and comments visibly increasing rapidly.
For instance, in twenty minutes, one video, "Spring in the Snow," received over a hundred thousand likes, and the comments exceeded ten thousand within twenty minutes.
"Xu Lin, many people say you play very well!"
Chi Linyue said.
Xu Lin looked at the computer and laughed, "The piano is only played by a few people. How many truly understand it? People just think it sounds good, but if you ask them how or why it sounds good, they can't really say, just that they feel it's good."
"That's true."
Usually, piano-playing families are middle class. Signing up for a short-term hobby class doesn't count. Besides, many families can afford a hobby class, but you need a piano at home, right? A piano costs tens of thousands, and an average family can't spare that, especially with a combined annual income that's limited.
"What are you talking about?"
Chi Linyue glanced at the computer screen.
"Discussing tomorrow's plans with the editor, like where to meet and what needs to be discussed, so I have an understanding."
Ranzhi mentioned they'd call Xu Lin in the morning, and they'd regroup then.
"Okay, what time are we heading out tomorrow?"
"Around a bit after eight!"
"Did you take the day off?"
"I already did today."
"That's good."
Chi Linyue asked again, "Nervous about negotiating a multi-million deal all of a sudden?"
"With you here, why would I be nervous?"
"Oh, come on!"
With that, Chi Linyue lay back on the bed, just as Xu Lin turned around.
Chi Linyue stretched out on the bed, holding her phone and playing with it, her figure truly captivating.
Though she wore simple pajamas, from the viewpoint of her clothes, nothing was notable, but the real issue was Chi Linyue's figure being more than usual. A well-figured woman, when lying down, her chest tends to spread to the sides.
It's like jelly or similar substances, trembling with physical movement, delicate to the point of fragility, hence it looks captivating.
But if she wore a bra, the effect wouldn't be as obvious due to the constriction.
But now.
Xu Lin wondered, is she not wearing a bra?
At that moment, Chi Linyue turned around, with her back facing Xu Lin.
Chi Linyue's rear was such that even compared with Rong Xiyi, she overshadowed her.
Her derrière wasn't just praised for no reason.
Moreover, with a mature allure added, Rong Xiyi couldn't compare to Chi Linyue.
