Chapter 50: The Singer

  Noble Lady's Ring

  "Teacher, my stomach hurts." Lin Dong thought of an excuse to slip away and call Tiezi for help, asking him to find a woman to pretend to be his aunt. Tiezi was capable of handling women from 40 years old down to 13-year-old lolis. He would definitely be able to succeed.

  "I think you're not having stomachache, but headache." Lin Dong's "childish" trick made Chen Ran somewhat amused. Was she that terrifying and frightening? When she went to visit families, it was hard for boys to hear about her afterwards without being eager. But Lin Dong acted in the opposite way. This further aroused some curiosity in Chen Ran.

  She was somewhat suspicious that Lin Dong's little aunt did not know the fact that Lin Dong was a singer in a bar. So she made up her mind to go to Lin Dong's home even more firmly.

  Lin Dong looked at the teacher with a serious expression that meant he didn't want to let him go to the bathroom and said reluctantly, "Teacher, are you sure you really went on a home visit?"

  "Isn't your home a den of dragons and tigers? Or do you have many things hidden from your little aunt?"

  Lin shook his head and said, "Teacher, that's not true. I will always discuss with Xiaoyi before doing anything."

  Chen Ran believed Lin Dong's words, because Lin Dong's eyes were extremely sincere and genuine, coming from the heart. He said: "Then there's nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, I heard that your aunt is a university teacher, at Pingjin University, right? I'm also from Pingjin University, so she's my senior."

  Lin Dong didn't refute at all, just nodded and said: "Alright then. Let's go back together after school this afternoon."

  Chen Ran nodded in satisfaction and said, "Alright then. You can go back to class now?"

  Lin Dong turned around and walked to the door, but then he turned back again.

  Chen Ran saw his hesitant expression and asked: "Is there anything else?"

  Lin Dongdao: "Teacher...do you think I'm a boy or a man?"

  This sentence made Chen Ran somewhat confused, boys and men are two different concepts, Lin Dong is now a boy, but in some sense also a man. She said: "What does this have to do with what you want to say?"

  "Teacher, from a boy's perspective, the blue dress you're wearing has an elegant temperament. From a man's perspective, you should wear a red dress, and yes, your underwear should also be red."

  Lin Dong's words fell, and he walked out of the office with his head held high.

  Chen Ran remained silent for three seconds before lowering her head to look at her own underwear, the bra she was wearing today was black lace. She had a preference for black lace bras.

  Lin Dong, didn't you just see the color of her bra? Her dress should have covered it up so that outsiders can't see it, how did this kid manage to see it?

  Chen Ran had some eager psychology towards Lin Dong's suggestion.

  After school in the afternoon, Jiang Ling and Lin Dong walked together. Mainly because of Jiang Ling's curiosity, he asked Lin Dong about the situation in the office.

  Lin Dongdao said: "Actually, it's nothing, just the teacher visiting my home."

  Jiang Lingdao: "Home visit? Is Teacher Chen going to your home?" Was Teacher Chen going to personally go and discuss his college entrance exam plans with Xiaoyi's aunt?

  "Lindong, don't you really plan on taking the entrance exams for Tsinghua, Peking University or Fudan?"

  "I'm interested in Pingtung University."

  Jiang Ling felt a bit more at ease, having an astonishing intuition about Lin Dong that this guy would make a stunning performance in the college entrance examination, and now hearing his answer made him feel relieved.

  "Lin Dong."

  Lin Dong heard someone calling his name and turned around to look.

  "Is that you?" He couldn't think of why Yuan Qing would personally come to the school to find him, and after a moment's thought, he knew what her purpose was. "Sorry, I really don't have time. Go find someone else."

  "Yuan Qing, that must be Lin Dong." An old man with a pair of reading glasses got off a small cart, about sixty years old. A kind face, looking very robust.

  This old man is the professor that Yuan Qing and Lin Dong mentioned, also a very prestigious teacher at Pingjin University. His students are all over the world. The most famous singer in the entertainment industry, Li Chen, is his proud student.

  "Teacher, this is Lin Dong, who sang 'Ambush from Ten Sides' in the video I showed you," Yuan Qing introduced, "Lin Dong, he's my teacher Chen whom I've mentioned before."

  The old man named Chen Yuanda took a closer look at Lin Dong, and regarding the video that Yuan Qing showed him of Lin Dong's performance of "Ambush from Ten Sides", his singing skills were indeed astonishing. It wasn't that no one could sing that song, but Lin Dong's control over pitch was very accurate, and his low, medium, and high notes were all nearly perfect, which made it quite rare. Perhaps it could be described as genius. Some singers can only sing low notes and struggle with high notes. How many people can do all three so well?

  Mr. Chen Yueda had already learned about some of the situation that Yuan Qing said about Lin Dong last night, and asked: "I am a music teacher at Pingjin University. You have great potential to be a singer. I hope you can make good use of your talent." As a prestigious and dignified elder, this time he was being very humble and courteous.

  "Thank you." Lin Dong still expressed his gratitude for the old man's personal visit.

  Jiang Ling couldn't help but feel curious inside, did the music teacher from Pingjin University find Lin Dong to sing? Is Lin Dong going to be a singer?

  "Can you sing 'Tian Hu'?" asked Chen Yuanda.

  "Heavenly Lake" is the most famous and also the most difficult song of British singer Mack, especially the high-pitched part at the end. Most domestic singers can't sing this song at all.

  "Tiān Hú?" Yuán Qīng looked at Lín Dòng with some disbelief, expecting and anxiously waiting for his response.

  The teacher's eyes have always been very accurate. Could it be that Lin Dong's singing skills are so powerful and against the sky?

  Lin shook his head and said, "Can't do it, there's a part of that song I just can't sing. Sorry, I'll leave first."

  Lin Dong gave Jiang Ling a look and hastily left.

  "Teacher," Yuan Qing asked, "he has a bit of a temper, do you want to..."

  Chen Yuanda said, "No need to chase him, I will personally go find him and talk to him again. The greatest wish of my life is to see a singer I taught standing on the highest stage in the world singing songs for Chinese people."

  Yuan Qing said: "Teacher, let's go back first."

  "Lin Dong, do you want to be a singer?" Jiang Ling blinked her eyes and asked Lin Dong. She still had a good impression of the profession of being a singer. As for those messy things in the entertainment industry, she also understood them through watching entertainment news. A good singer should focus on creating songs and performing, not constantly having negative scandals coming out every few days.

  "When a real singer isn't that easy to come by." Lin Dong turned his head and smiled, he had a somewhat skeptical, or perhaps even disdainful attitude towards some singers in the entertainment industry. If a singer doesn't even have good character, how can their songs move people?

  "If you really become a big star in the future, remember me, your old classmate." Jiang Ling reminded with a smile. In fact, she was full of expectations for Lin Dong to become a singer. She had only heard Lin Dong sing that one song by Wong Ka Kui, "Really Love You", at the evening party. She admitted that Lin Dong sang with great feeling.
