Chapter 99 - 96 Rumors Turned Out to Be Unreliable 1

The original version of “Zhu Xian” boasted one and a half million words, while the System-modified version was divided into eight volumes, totaling one million six hundred thousand words. The modified version offered a more detailed description of the “XianXia World”, with some additions and changes, which sufficed Lin Yuan for half a year’s serial…

Unlike “King of the Net”.

This time, Lin Yuan had to take matters into his own hands.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan types quickly.

After a night’s rest, he went back to school for classes the next day.

The first lesson was the homeroom teacher’s class.

Class attendance has always been an issue in university; skipping class is a persistent problem.

However, for the homeroom teacher’s class, students always managed to attend through wind or rain, without fail.

There’s no helping it.

Specialty subject teachers might not be able to remember every student’s name, a response in a deep voice during roll call suffices.

But homeroom teachers, whose daily work involved interacting with all the students in the class, had masterful knowledge of who’s who and would never allow someone else to sign the attendance for their classmates.

Failing a course is the biggest risk when caught by a specialty subject teacher. Being caught by a homeroom teacher is a whole different story.

“So here’s the deal.”

Before starting the class, the homeroom teacher addressed the students, “You remember how we talked before about needing everyone to write a song for this semester’s assessment, right? Initially, we considered having the deadline at the end of this month, but the school set out a new regulation…”

The students looked up curiously.

This semester’s assessment was related to grades and exchange student slots, among other things, so naturally, everyone was paying close attention.

“You’re getting an extension of one month.”

The homeroom teacher held up a finger, “This semester’s assessment is now due in June, and the assessors won’t just be insiders from our school — people from external entertainment companies will also participate. It’s still under discussion as to which one in particular, but there’s a chance that you may be directly signed up by the entertainment company if you make a good impression…”

There was a sudden flurry of excitement!

The classroom became lively.

If representatives of entertainment companies were involved in this semester’s assessment, it would certainly raise the significance of this activity!

Why would they take the pains to work so hard?

If it’s not for a promising prospect after graduation?

If they could impress the representatives from the entertainment companies with their works in this semester’s assessment, that would be akin to soaring to unimaginable heights, skipping countless hurdles!

At that moment.

Everyone was pumped.

Lin Yuan was pretty thrilled too.

Although this didn’t exactly concern him, it was a good opportunity for his classmates to showcase their talents.

Listen to my song later on…”

“The accompaniment to my piece has a little problem…”

“Let’s review each other’s work and give some feedback.”

“I wrote this song last year and I’ve been waiting for an opportunity. I had never planned to bring it out for this semester’s assessment, but it’s a different story now that there arc people from the entertainment companies. I must bring out this song!”

The classmates were discussing eagerly.

Many set their sights on Lin Yuan, speaking all at once, “I’m missing a piano track for my arrangement, Lin Yuan. You’re the best pianist in our class, I feel you’re even better than those in the music department. Could you give me a hand?”

“Um.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

He was as sparing in his words as always, but the students who asked for his help were overjoyed. They thanked him over and over again.

This is what people liked about Lin Yuan.

He appeared indifferent to anyone and seemed quite unsociable as he didn’t fool around with anyone; he came off as a very aloof person.

But whenever his classmates needed help, he would lend a hand.

It was like this during the bulletin board incident, and it was the same when asking him to enhance the arrangements. As unanimously recognized by the class:

That’s such a Lin Yuan thing to do.

That’s Lin Yuan’s style and characteristic. Once accepting this setting, you would find it rather endearing. At least, that’s how many girls in the class put it.

Lin Yuan didn’t think of himself as a warm-hearted person, but his classmates treated him well.

When he lived on campus, his roommates had even adjusted to his schedule.

Therefore, he agreed to the requests from his classmates and after hesitating for three seconds, he decided not to bring up the topic of fees.

Time to be generous for once!

Over the next few days, he was busy recording piano accompaniments for his classmates.

It was a tough job.

Piano accompaniment wasn’t something that could be done in one recording there would inevitably be problems during the recording process, Lin Yuan had to discuss and revise it with his classmates, and even offer his own input sometimes.

Of course.

Most of the time, the ideas proposed by the classmates were prioritized since these were their own pieces.

After helping out like this, Lin Yuan was almost living in the recording studio and the campus piano room, he even had less time to attend the art club.

On the third day of helping his classmates create piano accompaniments.

As expected, Lin Yuan bumped into Gu Xi in the piano room.

“It’s you!”

Upon seeing Lin Yuan, Gu Xi was overjoyed, yet he was unsure of how to address Lin Yuan.

Calling him Maestro seemed strange.

Addressing him as GOAT felt abrupt.

Calling him by his name, Lin Yuan, felt pretentious.

After much deliberation, she finally tried to approach him: “Lin Yuan…”

Lin Yuan nodded, passing her by.

Every time he met Gu Xi, it never meant anything good. Better avoid her quickly.

Lin Yuan!

Gu Xi called out nervously again.

Without turning around, Lin Yuan paused slightly, “What’s up?”

Gu Xi awkwardly replied, “Well… If you need anything, just let me know…”

Gu Xi had been feeling quite troubled recently.

She had been thinking of ways to get closer to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan rarely came to the piano room, and her taking the initiative would seem too deliberate, possibly causing his displeasure. So, she had been hesitating for quite some time about it.

“Hmm.”

Lin Yuan nodded, then returned to the piano room.

Today, the piano room was more crowded than the past few days.

Seeing Lin Yuan, one of them felt a little embarrassed, “Lin Yuan, we would also like to invite you to record piano accompaniments. We recognize the difficulty you’ve faced recently in aiding all of us. If it sounds too much, just forget it.”

Lin Yuan:

If this continues, the entire class will come looking for him.

Under normal circumstances, he would certainly have time to help this group of classmates.

The current problem was he still had unfinished tasks towards drawing reputation. If he spends all his time in the piano room and recording studio, it could easily delay the progress of those tasks.

However, Lin Yuan could understand why everyone was seeking his help.

When it came to piano skills, ninety-nine percent of those in the music department were below his professional level.

Sure enough.

Whenever he encountered Gu Xi, he would become unlucky.

Seeing Lin Yuan hesitating, one of his classmates chuckled, “Forget it, Lin Yuan will get exhausted at this rate. We should just ask for help from the music department instead.”

With that, the group was ready to leave.

Everyone was conflicted in their hearts. They wanted Lin Yuan’s help on one hand, but they also didn’t want to trouble him excessively.

With so many people needing assistance, Lin Yuan was indeed having a hard time managing everything.

“Wait a minute.”

Thinking about the concessions that his roommates and classmates had made for him, Lin Yuan ultimately found himself unable to ignore their requests.

The crowd paused, “But there arc so many of us…”

Lin didn’t speak but walked to the door, glancing at Gu Xi who was still at the end of the corridor.

Gu Xi stood silently, seemingly lost in thought.

“Wow, isn’t that Gu Xi?”

“The legendary Piano Goddess!”

“She looks so beautiful every time I see her.”

“I wish Gu Xi could help me with the piano accompaniment…”

“Dream on! Do you think you can ask Gu Xi for help? Besides, I think Lin Yuan is just as good as her.”

“All goddesses are cold, and Gu Xi is exceptionally so. Her vibe is clearly ‘strangers keep out’.”

Seeing Gu Xi, everyone began to discuss in hushed, excited whispers.

Gu Xi was a local celebrity, closely related to the composition and music departments. So, naturally, Lin Yuan’s classmates knew of her—the famous Piano Goddess—and were familiar with her aloof personality.

While everyone was discussing, Lin Yuan suddenly turned to Gu Xi, “Can you do me a favor?”

Hearing Lin Yuan’s voice, Gu Xi quickly raised her head.

The students around Lin Yuan were stunned.

What?

Did Lin Yuan really dare to ask Gu Xi for help?

Well, this is typical Lin Yuan.

The crowd felt incredibly touched.

As heartwarming as it was, everyone also found it a bit funny. Perhaps Lin Yuan thought Gu Xi, like him, would be a helpful person?

Lin Yuan is still so naive.

How could Gu Xi possibly agree?

She’s known for keeping her distance. Plus, she doesn’t know anyone from the composition department, so if she were suddenly asked to help, she would undoubtedly refuse without leaving any face.

That’s what everyone thought, and they began to feel guilty.

However, to everyone’s astonishment, the notoriously aloof Piano Goddess nodded vigorously, her tone even hinting at a bit of excitement,

Sure!

At that moment, the composition department students were collectively dumbstruck. They even doubted whether this was the real Gu Xi. Where was the cold demeanor that kept everyone at arm’s length?

Damn!

Rumors are indeed not trustworthy!
