Chapter 315: Wang Xifeng discovers the note and Pan'er cleverly arranges a hot pot banquet

The next afternoon, Wang Xifeng made an appointment to visit Li Shuirong. She came with work: Lin Pin'er needed to get her guqin back, and she also wanted to ask Li Shuirong for some musical instruments.

Li Shuirong invited Wang Xifeng to the ward. Since it was about Lin Pin'er, Li Hanlan agreed. However, he did not let them talk alone and sent his secretary to accompany Wang Xifeng to see Li Shuirong.

When Wang Xifeng entered the ward carrying some fruits, Li Shuirong was wiping the guqin with a velvet cloth. His fingers were slender, and he treated it as if it were a rare treasure.

"Mr. Li, how is your recovery going?" Wang Xifeng was still as tactful as ever.

Li Shuirong raised his head and glanced at the two of them, without showing any expression.

"Much better, just still a little dizzy."

Wang Xifeng didn't say much. She put down the fruit, took out the notebook from her bag, and began to report on her work.

Li Shuirong silently wiped the guqin and listened to her talk about Lin Pin'er's recent situation, what commercials she had filmed recently, and what musical instruments were needed for this performance.

"Well, I'll recommend Professor Chen to you. Just contact him for any musical instruments, and I'll pay for the expenses."

Wang Xifeng nodded and then closed the book.

"Please help me put the zither into the zither case. I just asked someone to tune the zither and I just got it back today. Just give it to her." When Li Shuirong handed the zither to Wang Xifeng, he deliberately turned the body of the zither over and tapped the dragon pool twice with his fingers.

Wang Xifeng took the guqin, put it into the guqin bag as he requested, and prepared to say goodbye and go to work.

Before leaving, Li Shuirong called Wang Xifeng again and said, "Don't tell Pin'er that I'm sick. Just say I'm busy so she can concentrate on the competition."

Wang Xifeng nodded and asked him to take care of himself.

Back in the car, Wang Xifeng stared at the zither case in a daze, and only after a long time did she ask the driver to drive out of the parking lot.

She quickly looked up some common knowledge about the guqin on the Internet. Most people would not turn the guqin over to hand it over. This action was a bit strange. What did "刚历水容" mean?

The car soon arrived at the TV station's underground parking lot.

Wang Xifeng was still staring at the zither case. She felt that Li Shuirong must have a purpose in turning it over and handing it to her, so she decided to open it and take another look.

This time she really found a small note attached with infusion tape. When she opened the note, it seemed to be a corner torn from a test report, with the smell of a printer, and a few words written on it: Please tell Sister Feng to expose the scandal between Yuanchun and Big Brother.

After reading it, Wang Xifeng quickly hid the note in her bag and continued to check the body of the zither. She only put the zither back in place after making sure there were no other discoveries.

Fortunately, she discovered it cleverly. Li Shuirong must have made two preparations. If Wang Xifeng did not understand his action of knocking on the body of the zither, the note could only be discovered by Lin Pin'er. He bet that Lin Pin'er would also convey it to Wang Xifeng, so he wrote "Please inform Sister Feng".

Li Shuirong also knows how to manipulate people's hearts. He deliberately used the three words "Sister Feng" to make Wang Xifeng do it even if she hesitated and weighed the pros and cons. After all, Li Shuirong really regarded her as his own, and she was trusted by both him and Lin Pin'er. It was hard not to move Wang Xifeng. Even if this matter was dangerous, she had to do it.

Lin Pin'er applied to Su Miaoyu for a secret rehearsal room, which was a soundproof studio that the TV station usually used for post-dubbing. The four walls were equipped with sound-absorbing sponges to reduce sound transmission and keep it confidential.

She left the original rehearsal room to Xie Yaning, Da Lulu and Nini, allowing them to freely create the rock music, while she took the secret team to the soundproof studio for rehearsal.

Wang Xifeng had a strong sense of execution. She first delivered her guqin in the afternoon, and the other instruments were also delivered before dinner. The friends quickly began to familiarize themselves with the music scores and rehearse.

The rehearsal of the secret team was not going very smoothly. Everyone hadn't touched these instruments for a long time, so it was inevitable that they felt a little unfamiliar when they suddenly picked them up again.

Lin Pin'er found Professor Chen again and tried every means to hire professional teachers of various musical instruments to give them extra lessons. Seeing how hard the girls worked, Lin Pin'er prepared to reward everyone.

She asked Yin Yue to order a delicious hotpot restaurant from outside, prepared a sumptuous hotpot feast in the restaurant, and invited all her close relatives.

As soon as the fat man arrived, he whispered to Lin Pin'er, "Boss Lin has been very mysterious recently. Why haven't I seen you in the rehearsal room?"

Lin Pin'er also lowered her voice and playfully replied, "We are rehearsing in secret, planning to catch them by surprise."

The fat man picked up the lamb slices and put them into the pot: "Oh, you're keeping it a secret from us guys?"

"It's not just a secret from you, it's a secret from everyone." Lin Pin'er replied. After she said that, the fat man didn't dare to ask any more questions.

In fact, she was not just keeping it a secret to prevent them, but mainly because the performance she designed this time was completely different from the previous ones, and everyone needed to subvert themselves. She was not afraid that they would imitate her after knowing it, but she was afraid that others would see it and raise doubts, which would psychologically affect their self-confidence.

Lin Pin'er remembered that Li Shuirong protected her like this before she became his apprentice for the first time. He was afraid that the teacher would say something that would affect her self-confidence. Now she follows the same path and protects the girls like Li Shuirong protected her. If they are willing to follow her and trust her, she has the obligation to protect them.

Thinking of this, friends arrived one after another. We still drank yogurt instead of wine, clinked glasses and started to eat dinner.

We were not in high spirits during the hotpot banquet. Maybe everyone had self-doubts, or the high-intensity training was too tiring, or more likely everyone had left their comfort zone and inevitably felt uncomfortable.

Lin Pin'er couldn't help but find a topic to talk about, hoping to make everyone relax.

"Do you have any interesting stage experiences? Let me tell you one first.

The first time I performed on stage was at our "Yong·Na Baichuan Live House."

After hearing what Lin Pin'er said, Fatty's band and Feng Ziying nodded to show that they understood.

“When I went on stage, I was aiming for the goal and the spotlight was there, so I went on confidently. Although I get nervous every time before going on stage, I’m not nervous once I start singing, probably because I’m a newborn calf that’s not afraid of tigers.

But when I finished singing, the lights dimmed, and I turned around and couldn’t find the way up, and I couldn’t go back, and I didn’t know where to go down, and I was confused.”

“Hahahaha…” Feng Ziying could relate to this the most. His first stage performance was also in Li Shuirong’s live house, and he also made a blunder during that performance.

"Yeah, me too. The first time I played drums, my master adjusted the position for me. But when I got on, my feet slipped and the seat slipped open with a click. The hi-hat was far away from me, so I tried to reach it with my feet for a long time. Later, I didn't dare to adjust it, so I just spread my legs to reach it. After a performance, it was like I was practicing splits. I told my master about it later, and he said I wasn't afraid of splitting my crotch, hahahaha..."
