Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 303 - 300: A Bit of Konghou Talent
Gu Jingyu only invited one friend, Lin Wanwan, while Liang Xingchi invited four friends, three n and one woman, with one man and one woman clearly being a couple.
"Wow, so romantic, you’ve never proposed to before!" The girl complained to her lover.
"Ahaha, you know I’m straightforward, right? I’m not as playful as Old Liang~"
The guy felt embarrassed too; if he had known Liang Xingchi was pulling this off, he wouldn’t have brought his wife along.
Gu Jingyu, with a fiancé, no longer needs a girlfriend, and she walked ahead arm in arm with Liang Xingchi, whispering and laughing like a flower basking in sunlight and rain, completely leaving Lin Wanwan behind.
Observing their interaction, Lin Wanwan concluded that Gu Jingyu was completely devoted.
It was easy for anyone to see that between them, Gu Jingyu loved more.
Her eyes sparkled when she looked at Liang Xingchi; loving soone was really hard to hide.
It wasn’t because Liang Xingchi was exceptional, but because Gu Jingyu’s love was so radiant, it cast a layer of mythical golden aura on him.
In youth, she charged into a wall for love without hesitation, refusing to retreat.
Actually, Lin Wanwan felt a bit envious of Gu Jingyu!
All these years, she had never loved this intensely.
Previously, she only knew to work hard in her studies to change her fate, and later, to make money for living, having no connection with early romance or school heartthrobs.
She didn’t believe love could bring sothing for nothing, nor did she dream of a prince loving her as he first did.
She was quite pessimistic about love and didn’t know if she’d encounter it.
Seeing so many compromising marriages online, and the calculations amongst conflicts, she doubted if she still had the capacity to love.
It’s difficult.
"Hey, hello, I’m Chen Yihua, a buddy of Liang Xingchi’s. You’re Lin Wanwan, right? You went to the sa school as Little Gu?"
"I’m Zheng Zhengqi, a close childhood friend of Liang Xingchi. Beauty, can we exchange WeChat?"
Lin Wanwan gave a light nod to the two who surrounded her, responding indifferently yet politely, "Sorry, I don’t have WeChat."
"No way, QQ works too. How about a phone number?" The two exchanged glances, persisting.
Lin Wanwan raised her mask, emitting an aura of "keep away," and coldly said, "Sorry."
The two, understanding, shrugged and stopped bothering her.
Though Lin Wanwan had been wearing a mask ever since she appeared, the aura of beauty she exuded couldn’t be concealed.
However, chasing beautiful won is tough!
Unfortunately, they didn’t have Liang Xingchi’s face and physique to charm the girls into a frenzy, alas!
The two exchanged glances, sharing the sa thought: we’re disadvantaged by our looks!
Lin Wanwan glanced sidelong at the two, thinking, see, it’s this kind of superficial attention based on appearance, lacking even the patience for subtlety.
Once beauty fades, will affection still remain, or perhaps it will be buried together in ti? n are so loyal, forever loving the youthful girl.
Back in college, Lin Wanwan was stopped for chats wherever she went.
Their intentions were so clear, the ans so clumsy and insincere, just bold hormonal display of youth, and Lin Wanwan was immune to it.
After the dinner gathering, Lin Wanwan offered to take Gu Jingyu ho.
Liang Xingchi’s new ho was in the nearby old neighborhood, and hearing Lin Wanwan’s offer, he expressed his gratitude without objection.
At dinner, Chen Yihua, who had been attentively courting Lin Wanwan, laughed and said, "Did you drive here? Leave the car here, I happened to bring my new car and can drive you. Ah, nowadays, thankfully, we have dostic channels, allowing to buy a BMW."
"Great, man, driving a BMW and reaching the peak of life. Just right, take along, we don’t have a car!"
Lin Wanwan rely smiled lightly, not responding.
She had no interest in understanding n who smiled like seeing a juicy steak, nor in watching them put on a vain display.
So are so ordinary, yet so confident.
When the group reached the basent and saw Lin Wanwan’s white Cayenne, the earlier smug face of the BMW guy showed signs of awkwardness, but deep inside, he felt even more excited.
Rich beauty! Living off a woman is delightful!
Lin Wanwan and Gu Jingyu got into the car, with the latter’s smile as if growing wings, maintaining a consistent sixty-six degree arch.
Lin Wanwan slightly shook her head, this person was blinded by love.
Luckily, she never said much when Gu Jingyu complained about her boyfriend, rely acting as a sounding board, or else she’d be a big joke.
See their deanor today, not even a lightning strike could part them. Complaints are one thing, love is another.
Lin Wanwan witnessed a proposal, had dinner, returned to her villa, and traveled through ti to Great Tang, where the first afternoon music class in the clan had just ended.
The older kids were released from the sheepfold—or rather the classroom—and began their labor class, while the younger ones wandered the village paths.
However, while others could go, little Qingyu was still held back by the music Teacher Heng Wu to practice the konghou.
As Lin Wanwan went downstairs, little Qingyu was despondently plucking the strings.
Upon seeing Lin Wanwan, little Qingyu’s eyes lit up, letting go of the konghou and rushing towards her, "Mom! You’re awake!"
Lin Wanwan hugged little Qingyu and asked with a smile, "Did you practice well?"
"Yes!" Little Qingyu nodded vigorously.
Heng Wu silently bowed to Lin Wanwan, looking resigned.
She wished to teach little Qingyu wholeheartedly, but to no avail!
The enthusiasm for practicing lasted only three minutes, no more.
Lin Wanwan didn’t expose the little one, instead saying to Heng Wu, "I want to learn too today; if little Yu doesn’t want to learn, why not teach ?"
Upon hearing that Lin Wanwan wanted to learn too, little Qingyu imdiately got excited and exclaid, "Then I want to practice as well!"
Heng Wu was naturally eager to oblige; with Lin Wanwan willing to learn, how could she refuse?
To preserve the konghou, Lin Wanwan’s family bought over a dozen, practically acquiring all the good-quality konghou available in the market in Xiaoxi Town.
These were authentic ancient konghou, each a remarkable piece in modern tis.
However, for Lin Wanwan, these konghou still weren’t prestigious enough.
Having owned Cai Yong’s hand-crafted Jiaowei Zither, and touched Lei’s Moonlight Legacy Guqin, ordinary instrunts couldn’t catch her eye anymore.
Lin Wanwan wanted to learn konghou naturally to motivate little Qingyu, but as she learned, she found herself genuinely interested.
The konghou, with its double-string setup, could produce the feeling of an orchestra from one instrunt, far more majestic than the guqin—of course, mostly because Lin Wanwan wasn’t skilled at the guqin.
She studied for an hour, fully imrsed.
Heng Wu delightedly said, "Madam has quite the talent for learning the konghou!"
Indeed, Lin Wanwan felt that compared to the guqin, she was more suited to the konghou, sparking her enthusiasm for learning it!
