She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 1030 - 874: Super Star 48 (4000)_3
Among the kids sent to Central Music, most of them have won awards in music during their elementary or middle school years. But whether learning music in the future is their own choice or their parents’, it’s mostly equally split. In other words, in a class, at least half of the students are here due to their parents’ choice. Therefore, those who are reluctant about becoming musicians in the future have to put in more effort than others when the school offers competition opportunities, just to avoid compromising with fate too early.
And the remaining half, even if they don’t purely love it, at least know that they need to make a living from it in the future. They’ve already reached a stage where they have no desires or demands, with all their thoughts and actions revolving around playing and practicing music.
Since entering this high school, Hua Yan has gradually leaned towards the latter group.
Studying in the morning, practicing in the afternoon, reviewing at night has become her daily routine.
Time quickly flew to the end of the year, and the first semester of Senior One ended with both a professional and a cultural subject exam. Hua Yan’s cultural subject scores remained at the top, and her professional subject was rated A+. This assessment meant that she could enjoy the winter holiday well.
Her high school released later than Four Middle School by a week, so when she finished her exams and went home, she missed Ning Hao again. This child had already been taken to Grandma’s house. Every winter and summer vacation, he alternates between grandparents’ and Grandparents’ houses, making Hua Yan a bit envious of her brother’s life, as she felt like a lonely person.
However, she wasn’t too unhappy, because someone came uninvited. Seeing Ling Yao sprawled like Ge You on their sofa, Hua Yan was a bit speechless.
"You say you don’t have money to rent a place, who are you fooling?"
"I really don’t have money, all my money is managed by Uncle Liang. I’ve also returned the previous place I rented since I didn’t have much stuff, and now that I’m not a star, there’s nowhere suitable for me. Let me stay here for a month this summer. I promise not to trouble you. When you cook, just make an extra portion for me. If that’s not doable, just think of me as Mr. Dou, it’s feasible!"
Ling Yao really didn’t have much concept of money. In an environment like Huaqing, he did what everyone else did. Apart from eating at the canteen, going to the library, playing sports, studying, and attending classes, he practically had no extracurricular activities. He didn’t buy a computer for gaming but for study needs. In short, in a place like Huaqing, he didn’t even have the chance to be wayward.
So at the end of the semester, he hadn’t even spent ten thousand yuan. Even Liang An occasionally called to complain that this guy didn’t seem like someone who had been a star, with a too simplistic concept of money.
Hua Yan had a fairly good understanding of Ling Yao. He was the type of person who, once fed, wouldn’t think beyond. Giving him money wouldn’t have him know how to spend it. Such a straightforward man could become a potential stock with proper guidance!
Since they were alike, Hua Yan wasn’t greatly annoyed by his uninvited food, drink, and lodging behavior. However, whenever she went out, she had to do it in Doudou’s guise. Otherwise, people might think she, a minor girl, was cohabiting with a man. After all, she was a designated figure under protection in the community, requiring no negligence.
Ling Yao was quite cooperative. At home, they minded their own business. Although Ling Yao didn’t need to level up, he had plenty of assignments. Being in the Computer Department, there were endless subjects to research. So all Hua Yan needed to do was stock enough food in the fridge for him, and even if she disappeared for a week to level up, it was no big deal.
If stocks ran low, he could still call to order takeout, anyway, in this age of advanced technology, as long as there was money, no one would starve.
Since Hua Yan got into Central Music Academy, she stopped attending Zhen Hao’s class. Zhen Hao even mentioned that there was no need to learn from him anymore. Once she endured these three years of high school and entered Central Music College, they would have plenty of opportunities to meet again.
Therefore, during this winter vacation, aside from completing her cultural assignments, her tasks were focused on typing and practicing music, leaving leveling tasks to the end.
Since reaching Level 50 last time, half a year had passed. During this half-year, she had already broken through to Level 60. As the winter vacation started for just a week, she had already reached Level 61. Her next goal was to break through to Level 65 before the end of the holiday.
Perhaps because she never experienced the reunion and joy of New Year, Hua Yan never looked forward to it in these years. When others were busily stocking up for New Year, her usual supplies in her space were already enough for over half a year, so she had no urge to compete with others for anything.
