Chapter 316: Chapter 263: Piano Competition - First Stage! (4K)

Regarding He Zhichen’s words, Lin Tian ignored them for the moment.

He turned his head and strode directly towards Gan Yanyu.

"Are you okay?"

"Mm..."

"Gan Yanyu, have you lost your damn mind?!"

Lin Tian’s roar startled Gan Yanyu, making her tremble.

The girl’s small hands clung to her arms, and she lowered her head, not knowing what to do.

"What were you thinking, stepping in front of someone charging at you with a knife? What if they really stabbed you? Can your frail body handle a stab wound?!"

Lin Tian cursed.

His head was buzzing.

Sometimes he truly didn’t know whether Gan Yanyu was genuinely naïve or just pretending to be.

But looking at it now, Gan Yanyu’s naivety seemed beyond cure!

"I’m... I’m sorry..."

Gan Yanyu said softly, eyes downcast.

"It’s okay, Teacher Gan Yanyu was just trying to protect you."

He Zhichen quickly stepped in to calm the situation.

Then, he hurriedly changed the subject:

"Teacher Lin Tian, have you really trained in..."

"Those moves just now, they’re not something an ordinary person could do..."

Being in good shape only proves physical strength.

But those moves just now, they weren’t just about physical qualities, it involved fighting skills!

years old, disarming an obviously more than 25-year-old man in an emergency situation,

and possessing such terrifying body technique skills.

He Zhichen might never have discovered this if not for such a sudden incident.

Lin Tian... what else are you hiding?

"I practice occasionally."

Lin Tian brushed off He Zhichen.

He turned back to look at Gan Yanyu, who was bowing her head with an embarrassed look of having made a mistake.

In the end, he couldn’t bring himself to continue scolding her.

Of course, Lin Tian knew it was Gan Yanyu’s instinctive reaction, and he knew she wanted to protect him.

That was all the more reason for him to chastise her.

This time he had been quick and alert, but what about next time?

How much could she really deal with?

She’s even picked up television dramas’ cliché of taking a stab for someone else.

He had to make Gan Yanyu remember this incident deeply, to completely eradicate such thoughts.

...

The silence lasted for a while.

Soon, officers from the Tokyo Police Station arrived.

The man was cuffed.

Several people followed and went to the police station to give their statements.

Being foreigners who were attacked on local soil, and musicians here for a competition, the Tokyo police took this matter very seriously.

During the process, Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu were warmly received by the police of Japan, with personal attendants providing tea and even breakfast they hadn’t had a chance to eat.

The efficiency of the police station was impressive.

After some time, investigation results came out quickly.

The attacker, a severe otaku, unemployed, a parasite living off his parents; he had an almost fanatic admiration for the pianist Sato Saburo.

He suffered from a rather severe mental illness.

...

Buff stacked to the max.

It seems that no matter in the past or present life, Japan is always a nation teeming with talent.

Lin Tian was fortunate nonetheless; he had encountered a Japanese knife-man, not a gunman.

Luckily, no one was hurt, and the case was closed quickly.

In the end, the officers kindly offered to drive Lin Tian to his rehearsal.

...

After the rehearsal,

in the evening, on the way back to the hotel,

Lin Tian reflected on the day’s events.

As his fame increased and he received more international attention,

inevitably, various doubts, slanders, and even dangers would follow.

Even if Lin Tian proved himself, he couldn’t be liked by everyone.

Well...

Lin Tian didn’t care much about this kind of thing.

However, to say that these issues wouldn’t affect his performance at all was impossible.

After all,

Lin Tian’s compositions were all derived from memories of his past life.

From a factual perspective,

these pieces weren’t really his.

Sometimes, Lin Tian wondered,

Did he truly deserve such excellent works?

The attacks from those people were not entirely unfounded.

If his performance was solely to achieve fame and success,

Then he might really be nothing but an outright fraud.

...

That night, Lin Tian escorted Gan Yanyu back to her hotel room.

As Gan Yanyu was about to close the door, Lin Tian stopped her.

"I’m sorry about this morning."

Lin Tian stood at the door, his expression conflicted,

"I shouldn’t have snapped at you, no matter what."

Thinking back to this morning’s incident,

Lin Tian eventually chose to apologize.

No matter what, Gan Yanyu did it to protect him, and he shouldn’t have been so angry.

Thinking about it made Lin Tian regretful,

He had been too agitated.

It was the first time he yelled at her that way; it must have upset Gan Yanyu, right?

"It’s... it’s okay."

Gan Yanyu lifted her head slightly and spoke softly,

"Because you scolded me to protect me too, right?"

...

Lin Tian was taken aback.

Gan Yanyu in front of him gradually revealed a relaxed smile.

Lin Tian scratched his head, his face suddenly flushed,

as if he suddenly remembered something:

"Oh yes, Little Gan."

"Hm?"

"Before you went abroad, you had already participated in quite a few competitions, right?"

Lin Tian asked.

"Are you talking about during high school?"

Gan Yanyu was puzzled why Lin Tian was suddenly asking this.

"Yes."

If Lin Tian remembered correctly,

before Gan Yanyu went abroad, which was when she was 16,

just the major competitions he knew of, Gan Yanyu had participated in the Yingqin Cup, Starlight Cup,

as well as numerous other big and small events.
