Chapter 60.2 – A Music Idiot Without Quality

Shi Yuan returned to the 8th floor and continued to answer the phone.

Lin Yeran cursed in the office again because an employee was absent from work for no reason.

When Shi Yuan came back from Iron City, he gave Yan Xin’s “dog tag” to Lin Yeran, who was drunk as hell.

Lin Yeran didn’t react much later, but Shi Yuan was sure that he didn’t remember that night – the evidence was that Shi Yuan hadn’t been deducted a bonus for being late and leaving early.

After Lin Yeran finished cursing people, he came out angrily to pick up water to drink.

Shi Yuan saw that he was wearing the “dog tag” around his neck, and the small metal plate was shiny and reflected the light. Then Lin Yeran realized it, stuffed it back into his collar, and left as if nothing had happened.

Shi Yuan continued to answer the phone.

Endless phone calls, all kinds of stories.

And the work of the welfare center was not too hard.

Every time he went there, Shi Yuan would chat with Wu Zhengqing and listen to him tell the story of the universe.

This was what the people in the welfare center asked him to do, since it could stabilize Wu Zhengqing’s emotions so that he would not run around, clamoring to go back to the Aerospace Center.

Wu Zhengqing had been in high spirits recently, he said to Shi Yuan: “I know, I know, the ‘Overlook’ plan will be completed soon!”

“Yeah,” Shi Yuan said, “Alice is very smart.”

“I haven’t seen a spacecraft take off in a long time. It’s really spectacular.” Wu Zhengqing pulled Yuan Yuan. “Come, come, let me tell you the design idea of the cruiser again. Just the design of this booster, our team has been studying it for 7 years, and it is in this place…”

Shi Yuan became dizzy while listening to it, he couldn’t understand it.

In the afternoon, he went to find Old Zou.

Old Zou still liked to draw. He drew dozens of tree roots and had to put them together to make a unique shape.

Shi Yuan helped him put them together every time, relying on his resonance with the monster, he put arranged them quickly. Old Zou was very satisfied, and the bark on his forehead gave birth to young seedlings, which grew more vigorous.

Old Zou solved it well, and then Shi Yuan went to accompany the children.

The children had also been infected, and their appearance was strange, but they liked Shi Yuan very much.

The kind of ‘very like’ and ‘very fond’.

Wherever Shi Yuan went, a bunch of children followed him, one by one, pouncing on him. Shi Yuan was overwhelmed and slowly sank, overwhelmed by the terrible human cubs, and was not able to get out until he got off work.

The children on this day were extremely enthusiastic. When it was time to get off work, Shi Yuan couldn’t get away. He was struggling in the ocean of children, only the tip of his tail was stubbornly exposed.

—Then, he was brought up.

Lu Tinghan grabbed his devil horns, shook him, shook the children down, and then rescued Shi Yuan to the outside.

The tip of Shi Yuan’s tail swayed frantically: “Why are you here? You found me again!”

“Anyway, I had nothing to do at home, so I thought I’d come and pick you up,” Lu Tinghan said, “Let’s go.”

He put his arms around the happy Shi Yuan and walked to the elevator.

The staff members on the side were about to pop their eyes out, they all had open mouths, then they saw Lu Tinghan pass by the front desk and silently put something on it.

It was the tree root painted by Old Zou, which Shi Yuan helped him put it together.

Only Shi Yuan could understand Old Zou’s weird monster-like thinking.

How did the general get the painting? Why did he take it?

The staff was confused, but this point of doubt was covered by a strong heart of gossip in the blink of an eye. He tugged Wang Yu, who just came over, and said mysteriously, “You surely can’t imagine who just picked up Shi Yuan.”

Wang Yu did not hesitate: “Ah, it must be General Lu.”

Staff: ?？？

He was so shocked and said, “Huh?？ Am I the only one who doesn’t know?”

“It’s okay, I had the same expression the first time I knew.” Wang Yu patted him on the shoulder. “Simply put, this is a story of going into the city to find 1 and being very successful…”

Shi Yuan and Lu Tinghan went home.

Since moving in, Shi Yuan has been rummaging through old items in Lu Tinghan’s room, trying to understand what Lu Tinghan was doing when he was a child.

He completely gave up Sudoku, studied insect specimens for a few days, and got to know the red swallowtail butterfly, dragonfly, and praying mantis. And yesterday, he just found the violin in a cardboard box.

He took the violin, sat on the couch, and played it tentatively –

There was a noise.

He tried a few more times, making more noise.

“Lu Tinghan,” he held up the violin to ask for help, “Can you play the violin?”

Lu Tinghan said, “What you are holding is my violin, of course, I can.”

Shi Yuan immediately admired him and said, “You know a lot of things, then you can teach me!”

The Garcia Grand Theater had a performance hall that was rented to a band for a long time. He had been interested in music since then.

Lu Tinghan took the violin: “What music do you want to listen to?”

“I don’t know any of them.”

“Then I’ll choose the one I’m best at, the Violin Concerto in D minor,” Lu Tinghan said. He stood up and set up the violin, holding the strings with his slender fingers, and made a smooth stroke.——

Shi Yuan’s tail exploded.

It was hard to describe what noise he heard, like a screaming chicken screaming in his ear with all its strength. There was more than one noise, it came one after another, like a sea tide, screaming chickens, wood sawing, monsters roaring, clattering pots, crying donkeys, and iron shovels against stones.

He raised his head abruptly, and saw Lu Tinghan immersed in it, playing the strings fast!

Shi Yuan: ?？？

It took him half a minute to confirm that it was indeed the sound of a violin.

Shi Yuan shouted: “Lu Tinghan!”

Lu Tinghan didn’t respond and continued to play the violin.

Shi Yuan: “Lu Tinghan!!!”

Lu Tinghan heard it, stopped, and looked at him: “What’s the matter?”

Shi Yuan was shocked and said, “Was that the sound you just made?”

“Otherwise?”

“What was that?”

“Violin Concerto in D minor.”

Shi Yuan repeatedly looked at Lu Tinghan’s expression.

Lu Tinghan was calm and serious.

Shi Yuan said, “Why don’t… you change a tune?”

Lu Tinghan changed to “Violin Concerto No.1 in G minor”.

—That’s what he called this piece.

What Shi Yuan heard was still a bunch of harsh noises, the difference was just that the frequency of sawing wood was different.

After trying three or four tunes repeatedly, Shi Yuan was sure: Lu Tinghan is an out-and-out, complete and utter music idiot.

He didn’t realize that he was just a noise maker!

Others could get money if they played; he could get money if he played, but others would give him money and beg him not to play.

Shi Yuan asked tactfully: “Lu Tinghan, what do you think of your level?”

Lu Tinghan said: “Just average, I can listen to it.”

Shi Yuan: “……”

Shi Yuan asked again: “Did you have a music teacher before? What did they say?”

Lu Tinghan replied: “I have had several teachers, and they didn’t say anything, but they resigned very quickly.”

Shi Yuan: “……”

Knowing that Lu Tinghan was hopeless, he took the violin back: “Well, I don’t think either of us is suitable for music.”

Lu Tinghan raised his eyebrows: “I’m not suitable either?”

“You’re not suitable,” Shi Yuan told the truth, “It’s really unpleasant.”

Lu Tinghan raised his eyebrows again.

That night, Shi Yuan was pressed and b*llied by Lu Tinghan again.

Shi Yuan protested: “It’s really hard to listen to! It’s not that I’m slandering you!” Lu Tinghan touched the root of his tail, and he suddenly became soft.

“It’s probably very hard to listen to,” Lu Tinghan said.

“Then what are you doing?”

Lu Tinghan said, “But I don’t have quality. Low-quality people will not admit their mistakes.”

Shi Yuan was so dizzy from being played, he always felt that he had dug a big hole for himself.

He was so tired that he fell asleep suddenly in Lu Tinghan’s arms.

At work the next day, Shi Yuan’s mind was still full of the terrible sound of sawing wood.

They all said that no one is perfect. He had thought that Lu Tinghan’s military talents were so dazzling. In addition to his low quality, he might also have other shortcomings.

But he didn’t expect that this was directly a magic sound filling his ears, which could be called a biological and chemical weapon, but Lu Tinghan didn’t realize it, and still played the violin fast.

What’s more terrible than a tone deaf is a tone-deaf without quality.

And that tone-deaf would still play him and his tail.

Before getting off work, Shi Yuan met Wang Yu at the elevator entrance.

Wang Yu chatted with him for a few words, and suddenly said, “Do you know that there is a march in the main city?”

Shi Yuan: “I don’t know, what is the march for?”

Wang Yu’s expression was a bit complicated: “What a sin, it’s about General Su. They said that he didn’t give a good command, and that if General Lu was there, nothing would have happened.”

Shi Yuan asked, “So, they want Lu Tinghan to help command the main city?”

“Not just to ‘help’. To put it simply, they want to let Lu Tinghan have full command.” Wang Yu sighed, “They want to force General Su to abdicate and call on Lu Tinghan to replace him. What do you think is going on? If General Su doesn’t want to let go of power, what will he do? I don’t know what they both think. They are still teachers and students, it would be too saddening if they end their relationship like this…”
