At seven o'clock in the evening, Chen Haoxuan and Chen Yina arrived at Huang Weicheng's house right on time. Ding ding ding... this time it was Chen Haoxuan who rang the doorbell. "It must be Brother Xuan here," a joyful voice from inside, belonging to Meilin Huang, called out before the door even opened.
When the door opened, Chen Haoxuan saw a group of girls standing at the entrance, all looking at him with strange expressions. "Mei Lin, is this your house? I hope I didn't come to the wrong place," Chen Haoxuan asked in confusion.
"Brother Xuan, you didn't go wrong; come on in!" Meilin Huang enthusiastically pulled Chen Haoxuan into the house.
Li Yuzhen stood up when she saw Chen Haoxuan and Chen Yina had arrived, smiling as she greeted them, "You guys are here! Sit down; have some fruit first before we start teaching them."
Chen Haoxuan was not polite and sat down on the sofa, crossing his legs. He picked up an orange from the table, peeled it, and shared half with Chen Yina. While eating the orange, he asked Li Yuzhen, "Are you having a party?"
Li Yuzhen covered her mouth and chuckled, "Hehe... no! Actually, they all came to see you. Sigh—who told you to be so handsome? Look at how you've captivated these little girls."
"What...?" Was this really happening? They came just to see his looks, treating him like a rare animal?
"Mei Lin, he really is handsome," one of Meilin Huang's classmates whispered to her.
"Of course! If he weren't handsome, would I let him be my tutor?" Meilin Huang replied proudly. She spoke softly, afraid that Chen Haoxuan might overhear.
"Mei Lin, do you know how old he is?" another classmate asked Meilin Huang.
"I didn't ask, but judging by his looks, he can't be that old. Besides, someone like him is just perfect for us! My mom always says that when looking for a boyfriend or husband, it's best to find someone older because older guys take care of people," Meilin Huang explained to her classmates while her eyes were fixed on Chen Haoxuan.
"With them all here, how can I teach?" Chen Haoxuan asked Li Yuzhen.
Meilin Huang quickly answered in a sweet voice, "Then let's teach together! After all, they're all wealthy." Turning to her classmates, she added, "Right?"
"Yes! We're willing to pay five hundred RMB for an hour like Mei Lin," her classmates chimed in agreement. Judging by their attire, it was clear they came from affluent families.
Five hundred RMB per person for an hour; with six people including Meilin Huang herself, that meant Chen Haoxuan could earn three thousand RMB in just one hour. Wow—such treatment was exceptionally high. For someone like Chen Haoxuan who was short on money, it felt like a timely help in need.
"I don't have any problem, but you all better tell your families, so they won't worry if you don't come back late and think something happened to you," Chen Haoxuan kindly suggested.
"No problem," Meilin Huang's classmates quickly took out their phones to call their families.
Chen Haoxuan noticed that these middle school students all had phones, which made him feel embarrassed; he didn't even have a phone yet!
After a while, Meilin Huang's classmates had all talked to their families, who agreed to let them learn piano with Meilin Huang. They were convinced because they said Chen Haoxuan played the piano better than any master, otherwise, it wouldn't be so expensive.
Chen Haoxuan stood up and said to Meilin Huang and the others, "If there's nothing else, let's get started!"
"Sure!" The lively girls bounced along with Chen Haoxuan to Meilin Huang's room.
Chen Yina glanced enviously at Chen Haoxuan and then turned to Huang Zhifeng, saying, "Let's go learn too!"
Huang Zhifeng mumbled, "Sister Nana, I want to learn piano with my sister too." He didn't like tedious studying; he preferred lively activities.
Li Yuzhen gave her son a light smack on the head and scolded, "If your grades were as good as your sister's, I wouldn't care what you did. Now hurry up and go study in your room."
"Favoring girls over boys, humph," Huang Zhifeng muttered as he walked toward his room.
In Meilin Huang's room, her classmates sat together on the sofa, looking at Chen Haoxuan like curious little kids.
"Today I'm going to teach you a piece called 'Sadness.' I'll play it first and then teach you," Chen Haoxuan said.
Hearing that Chen Haoxuan was going to play the piano again, Li Yuzhen hurried into her daughter's room and sat on the edge of the bed, eagerly waiting for Chen Haoxuan's performance. She had to admit that Chen Haoxuan looked particularly handsome when playing the piano, and his music was exceptionally beautiful; watching him play was truly enjoyable.
The beautiful melody filled the room once more as Chen Haoxuan's fingers danced leisurely across the keys. Those listening felt as if he was their master; he could make them happy or sad at will. Although Chen Haoxuan's piano playing was wonderful, Meilin Huang and her friends did not smile; instead, tears welled up in their eyes because his music was too poignant.
After finishing 'Sadness,' Chen Haoxuan noticed that Meilin Huang and her friends had red eyes. It seemed true that women were emotional beings.
"To achieve an effect like mine, it's actually quite simple. You just need to play based on your feelings and adjust your emotions to Sadness while playing, and you can create that effect," Chen Haoxuan explained.
"That sounds beautiful! Can you play another piece?" Li Yuzhen said, looking as if she wanted more.
"Yes! Yes! Brother Xuan, please play another one! We want to hear more," Meilin Huang chimed in.
"But—I'm here to teach you how to play the piano, not just to perform for you!" Chen Haoxuan replied, feeling a bit embarrassed for taking their money without teaching them anything yet.
"Oh, oh, look at me! I'm so lost in your music. I won't listen anymore; you teach them! I'll go make some coffee for you," Li Yuzhen said awkwardly as she stood up. She had learned yesterday that Chen Haoxuan liked coffee.
"Thank you," Chen Haoxuan said gratefully.
After Li Yuzhen left, Chen Haoxuan began teaching Meilin Huang and the others how to play the piano. He used very engaging methods, which made Meilin Huang and the others pay close attention to his lessons.
By 10 o'clock, Meilin Huang and the others had basically learned how to play the song Sadness that Chen Haoxuan was teaching them. While he was teaching, Li Yuzhen was also present and was surprised by Chen Haoxuan's unique teaching methods. They were unconventional but very effective; everything he taught was easy to understand. This made Li Yuzhen very happy to have someone like Chen Haoxuan teaching her daughter piano.
