Gan Yan Yu Is Increasingly Strange

Looking at the young man's confident face, Gan Yan Yu was momentarily stunned.

That night, Lin Tian standing on the railing, pointing dominantly at her and saying he wanted to help her, suddenly reappeared in her mind.

He was always so handsome.

If it were a normal girl, she probably would have fallen for him by now.

Thinking of this, a hint of imperceptible relief flashed in the young girl's eyes.

"Oh, right, Teacher Gan."

Suddenly, Lin Tian's voice interrupted Gan Yan Yu's thoughts.

"How are things with your parents?"

Ever since their conversation at the observation deck last time, Gan Yan Yu had resolved to break away from her parents and choose her own path.

However, Gan Yan Yu was still a high school student. With her grandfather gone, it would be very difficult for her to live alone.

Lin Tian had no parents, but Gan Yan Yu was different. Both her parents were alive and perfectly capable of taking her back home.

If her parents insisted on taking her away by force, Gan Yan Yu might not have had any recourse.

"It's already resolved."

"Resolved?"

"Yes, they agreed to let me live in Grandpa's house and will send money regularly, as long as they're allowed to visit me from time to time."

"That's good."

Lin Tian hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.

He had thought Gan Yan Yu's parents would put up more of a fuss.

However, Gan Yan Yu's wording struck Lin Tian as a bit odd.

"Allowed?"

"Yes, I used the words you taught me."

"What words did I teach you?"

"'People who abandoned me since I was three have no right to be my parents.'"

"..."

Lin Tian chuckled.

It seemed Gan Yan Yu's parents were quite pragmatic.

What, you want to play the cello?

Sorry, we're your parents, and we absolutely forbid it. We'll throw everything away for you.

What, you want to cut ties with us?

OK, you just want to live in Grandpa's house? Fine! We'll agree to anything you want! As long as you let us visit you regularly.

What do they call it when you can bend and stretch, and the wise recognize the times?!

But, seriously, this also showed that Gan Yan Yu's parents weren't entirely without conscience.

Knowing they had wronged Gan Yan Yu over the years, they were willing to back down promptly after Gan Yan Yu's outburst.

In this regard, they were already better than countless other parents.

"Invincible, want to go out and celebrate tonight?"

Lin Tian rubbed his hands together. "Celebrate freedom!"

"Okay..."

Gan Yan Yu's agreement was cut short as she quickly stopped herself and shook her head:

"Never mind, you have class tomorrow, right?"

"I stayed up all night with you that day, why would I care about that?" Lin Tian asked, confused.

He recalled that day, in order to accompany Gan Yan Yu, Lin Tian had slept soundly through an entire morning in the classroom.

Normally, Lin Tian presented himself as a model student.

This sudden drastic contrast had thoroughly shocked several teachers, who rushed to the homeroom teacher to inquire about Lin Tian's condition, wondering if he had developed depression from studying too hard.

Lin Tian repeatedly explained the situation to the homeroom teacher, stating he had suffered from insomnia the previous day, and only then was the matter settled.

"Well, I just think you should have your own life, Lin Tian, you don't always have to revolve around me."

Gan Yan Yu thought for a moment, then mustered her courage and said.

Setting aside other factors, Gan Yan Yu truly felt she was troubling Lin Tian too much.

If this continued, she would feel truly embarrassed.

"It's just a meal, and besides, I want to eat something good too," Lin Tian said.

It wasn't that he was being polite to Gan Yan Yu. Lin Tian had been eating the "ten-complete, ten-supplement" nutritious meals with her for the past few days, and he was genuinely starting to feel a bit nauseous.

He wanted something with a bit of oil, preferably something that was obviously junk food.

"Let's save some money. The expenses have been too high lately, and I've troubled you too much."

Gan Yan Yu said, as if trying to escape, and quickly moved her feet.

She walked to the door and put on her shoes.

"Thank you for your hospitality today as well. Send me the grocery bill, and I'll split it with you."

After saying that, the young girl closed the door.

"."

Leaving Lin Tian somewhat stunned.

What was going on?

It was the same yesterday; she left halfway through the massage.

Yet, just a couple of days ago, when they had just started creating together, she had been quite enthusiastic.

It wasn't that Gan Yan Yu had become cold.

She still cooked every day, exercised, and everything was harmonious.

However, the time she spent at Lin Tian's place had clearly shortened, and every time it seemed like their relationship was about to progress further, Gan Yan Yu would promptly interrupt.

It was like chōng zhǐ!

Men hated being chōng zhǐ-ed by women the most!

If it were any other woman besides Gan Yan Yu, after playing this game twice, he would have already pounced and turned into a ferocious wolf.

Let you interrupt me. Let you interrupt me.

Fiercely do this and that.

Lin Tian couldn't figure it out. You could say Gan Yan Yu was a bit emotionally closed off, but they had opened up to each other just a few days ago.

Could it be that time of the month for women?

It actually seemed quite possible!

It was said that during those days, even the most demure girls would become impatient and irritable!

Gan Yan Yu might have been afraid of losing control of her emotions in front of him.

Or perhaps she was afraid of losing control... and leaking.

Lin Tian quickly squatted down to check the sofa cushion.

Tsk.

What a shame, he didn't see any strange red spots.

Nor did he smell any peculiar odor.

"Ahem."

Lin Tian sat up straight.

Of course, he knew that even if it had happened, Gan Yan Yu would definitely have been wearing a sanitary pad.

His actions just now were purely for entertainment; it was just a sudden whim of an 18-year-old boy.

Past life? He hadn't even lived past 20 in his past life.

Having lived two lives, the boy hadn't experienced society. At most, he had gained a bunch of useless middle and high school experiences. His maturity couldn't be calculated as 18 + 20!

Lin Tian shifted his gaze back to his phone.

Lin Tian didn't have time to ponder the thoughts of a teenage girl's heart right now.

The immediate goal was to resolve the issue with the video.

Gan Yan Yu's concerns were definitely not unfounded.

The reason the video was going viral now was that most people were tuning in to see a beautiful girl play the cello, so the video's potential ceiling wasn't that high.

They only knew it sounded good; they didn't know Gan Yan Yu's terrifying professional cello level at just 18 years old, nor the true value of the piece "Salut d'Amour."

There's a saying:

Right now, you are only at the Ascension Realm, your vision is still narrow. Seeing me is like a frog in a well looking up at the moon. When you are lucky enough to reach the fourteenth realm, you will see me like a mayfly seeing the vast sky.

These Douyin users, who only cared about legs and lacked musical appreciation, hadn't realized.

They were currently witnessing an astonishing cello skill and a top-tier masterpiece that would change the world in the future.

Of course, he wasn't looking down on netizens. After all, he also liked looking at legs.

What Lin Tian needed to do now was to make these viewers realize the true value of "Moonlight and Cat."

At that time, let alone 20,000 likes, 200,000 likes, or 2 million likes would all be easily achieved!

However, Lin Tian hadn't thought of a good method for the time being.

The only thing he could do was improve the video quality and attract more traffic.

For the next recording, he should add piano accompaniment.

Lin Tian thought this, then opened the system settlement interface.

[Task Complete - Create a song, release a short video featuring a duet with a musical instrument, and receive over 10,000 real likes!]

[Reward: 10,000 Yuan]

"Ding dong!"

A text message alert chimed.

Lin Tian opened his phone and saw his bank account balance.

[10,024.5 Yuan]

To be honest, seeing this number...

Lin Tian, who was 18 years old, had never felt so secure in his life.

Awesome!!

Lin Tian felt a surge of satisfaction.

He had lost his mother at age 3 and his father at age 15.

For years, Lin Tian had persevered through everything alone.

Over the years, he had studied desperately and worked part-time jobs to support himself.

All of this was so that one day, he could make something of himself!

He wanted to get into a prestigious university and earn a lot of money.

He wanted to make those two bastards who abandoned him regret their actions!

If Gan Yan Yu's dream was music, and the cello...

Then this was what Lin Tian had always pursued.

Simple and unpretentious.

Nothing else.

The first thing he did with the money was address his financial situation.

He immediately paid the rent he owed for two months.

After sending the payment to Auntie Li, his WeChat balance was 7,824.5 Yuan.

Eating and living were definitely not issues anymore.

However, buying a piano was still a far-fetched dream.

Lin Tian pondered for a moment, thinking of his best friend at school who seemed to have quite a bit saved up to build a computer.

Perhaps he could ask his friend for a loan.
