Chapter 166: Oppressive Ning Qing, Master Wei Takes a Disciple

Chen Shulan’s call had been too abrupt.

Master Wei had been uneasy all the way as he rushed to the hospital. The moment he saw Qin Ran, his heart relaxed.

Because of his voice, Ning Qing returned to her senses.

She turned her eyes in disbelief to Qin Ran, and then stared at Master Wei and said almost silently, “Master Wei?”

Ning Qing had seen him during Qin Yu’s competition.

Whether it was his finale performance, when he commented on Qin Yu, or when she heard about him frequently in the Shen family and from others.

Old Master Shen had always spoken in awe about him and didn’t dare to say much.

Ning Qing had also thought about what would happen if Master Wei had accepted Qin Yu as his disciple…

She knew Master Wei, but Master Wei didn’t know her.

Master Wei wasn’t surprised that someone recognized him. He just nodded politely to Ning Qing, alienated and indifferent.

Qin Ran heard the familiar voice and turned around.

She saw Master Wei at one glance as well as the middle-aged man who had followed him.

“Teacher Wei, why are you here?” Qin Ran paused and then turned around.

She didn’t know what expression to put on her face towards Master Wei.

Master Wei smiled and continued to move forward very naturally, without his usual dignity and alienation. Even his tone was also natural as he said, “If the mountain doesn’t come to me, I’ll go to the mountain.”

He didn’t mention Chen Shulan.

“Didn’t I say after next year’s college entrance examination?” Qin Ran knew he was talking about accepting her as a disciple and just stood there calmly. “Did my grandma ask you to come?”

Master Wei smiled calmly. “You finally relaxed, so of course I have to keep a tight eye on you. What if I wait for a year and you change your mind and leave, who would I cry to?”

It wasn’t unusual for Master Wei to do such a thing.

At that time, he had also left a group of people in Beijing to stay in Ninghai Town for half a year.

Qin Ran reluctantly accepted his explanation.

“Miss Qin.” The middle-aged man beside Master Wei bowed respectfully to Qin Ran.

During the six months in Ninghai Town, the middle-aged man had followed Master Wei. Because he knew how much Master Wei had spent for this apprentice, he was very respectful to Qin Ran.

Qin Ran nodded and smiled, greeting him politely. “Uncle Hai.”

The three of them talked as they walked towards Chen Shulan’s ward.

They sounded close as if they knew each other for years.

It wasn’t difficult to understand from their conversation that Qin Ran and Master Wei had known each other for many years, and Master Wei had obviously come for her.

The most important thing was that Qin Ran still seemed to be hesitating about it.

Ning Qing stood on the spot like a piece of wood, shocked.

Thunder seemed to flash in her head.

Did she just see Master Wei in Yun Cheng? And the most important was how did he know Qin Ran and even wanted to accept her as his disciple?

Ning Qing stared as the three of them entered Chen Shulan’s ward while talking. The attitude of Master Wei, who was so prestigious among the Shen family, was considered very accommodating to Qin Ran.

She stood there without even the strength to press the elevator button.

Ning Qing knew that based on the seniority status in Beijing, let alone the Shen family, even the Dai family couldn’t compare with the Wei family.

The Wei family didn’t only have their own social connections, but Master Wei’s attainment in the field of the violin was simply beyond that of Dai Ran.

Not to mention the Shen and Lin families.

The gap was too wide.

So Ning Qing had thought more than once about what would happen if Qin Yu had been taken in as a disciple by Master Wei.

But now, she saw that Master Wei had come from far away to Yun Cheng to take Qin Ran as his disciple. To Ning Qing and even to Beijing, this matter was enough to shake up the circle.

Chen Shulan had told Ning Qing that Qin Ran had been practicing the violin.

But Ning Qing hadn’t taken it too seriously since Teacher Xu had already stopped teaching her. Based on the education level, the teachers who taught Qin Yu were much more advanced than those in Ninghai Town.

The Lin family had always been generous in regards to Qin Yu learning the violin, and even her violin had been custom-made at 590,000 yuan.

But no matter how much Ning Qing thought about it, she never would have imagined that Master Wei would actually take a fancy on Qin Ran and want to accept her as an apprentice.

Ning Qing pressed her shaking hand to her chest as she thought about how bright her future would be if Qin Ran agreed to it!

But in the next second, Ning Qing remembered the conversation between her and Qin Ran just now. She sobered up as if she had been hit in the head by a stick and felt her blood run cold.

Ning Qing stared at Chen Shulan’s ward and could almost feel the regret condensing together in her intestines, swallowing her heart.

If he had arrived five minutes earlier…

Ning Qing’s hands stiffly pressed the button on the elevator.

The Lin family’s driver was waiting downstairs and she returned home stiffly.

She sat on the sofa. It was already early winter, but she still poured herself a glass of cold water and sipped it down, but it still couldn’t cover her heart that felt like it had been cut by a knife.

Old Master Lin and the others were still there.

They came downstairs and were discussing finding a time to visit Chen Shulan.

This had been almost impossible in the past.

Seeing Ning Qing’s strange expression, Old Master Lin asked kindly, “What’s wrong? Is your mother in a bad condition?”

Lin Qi also looked over.

Ning Qing put down the glass and shook her head.

She looked very startled.

They already had this attitude towards her because Dai Ran had accepted Qin Yu as a disciple. If they knew that Master Wei wanted to accept Qin Ran as a disciple, what attitude would they show?

**

In the hospital.

Qin Ran moved two chairs for Master Wei and Uncle Hai to sit.

She leaned on Chen Shulan’s bed.

Chen Shulan leaned on her pillow, her face glowing rosily and looking very energetic. “Master Wei, I’ve troubled you to come down.”

Master Wei looked at her condition and his heart sank, but he hid it from his expression and laughed. “If I can get an impressive student by running down here, I don’t mind running down a few more times.”

They were extremely familiar with one another, so Master Wei naturally knew that Qin Ran didn’t listen to anyone other than Chen Shulan.

As long as Chen Shulan spoke, the matter of apprenticeship might be pulled ahead of schedule.

In the past, Master Wei would have happily ran two rounds around the hospital.

But at the thought of Chen Shulan’s deep intention, his joy dispersed.

Qin Ran didn’t listen to their polite exchange of words and just leaned on the bed looking at her phone. Gu Xichi still hadn’t messaged her.

He still hadn’t sent the result.

Yan Xi also had no movement.

He had been quiet ever since she sent the full version of the composition to him.

It was like this every time. After she sent a rough frame, Yan Xi would harass her on WeChat continuously to finish writing it.

But after she sent him the full song, he would be quiet for a day or two.

“Then find a good day.” Chen Shulan and Master Wei were already talking about the time, so Master Wei paused and frowned. “Even if I don’t make a big deal of finding an apprentice, I still have to ask a few people to come.”

Due to Chen Shulan’s current state, and given that this was Yun Cheng and not his hometown, Master Wei had already planned to go through a ceremony here first.

He would then hold a big show when Qin Ran went to Beijing next year.

**

In the hotel where Master Wei was staying.

It was the only five-star hotel in Yun Cheng.

It had been arranged by the Yun Cheng Violin Association and he had also been given a BMW.

Qin Ran glanced at it and saw that he was in the same hotel as Gu Xichi.

After sending Master Wei to the hotel, Uncle Hai sent Qin Ran back to school.

Although Yun Cheng wasn’t Master Wei’s hometown, his name was still useful everywhere.

After Uncle Hai sent Qin Ran back, Master Wei put on his glasses and turned over the calendar to choose a date.

Then, he planned the invitation. He would have to invite a few people from the Yun Cheng Violin Association.

“By the way, is Jiang Hui also in Yun Cheng?” Master Wei flipped through the phone book and glanced at Uncle Hai.

There were several spectators at his performance, including the Jiang, Xu, and Cheng families. Among these people, he had eaten with Jiang Hui several times and was considered closely acquainted with him.

Uncle Jiang thought about it and nodded. “I heard that he has been dispatched to Yun Cheng.”

“That’s a coincidence.” Master Wei added Jiang Hui to the list on the side.

Chen Shulan was also planning to invite a few people.

The Lin and Ning families were too eccentric, so Chen Shulan didn’t intend on informing them.

The rest of the invitation included some friends of Qin Ran, Mu Nan, and the others.

She included Pan Mingyue and Mu Nan, but Song Luting couldn’t come back temporarily and she didn’t know if Gu Xichi was still in Yun Cheng…

Chen Shulan asked the nurse to bring her a pen and paper. Even at night, she didn’t sleep and wrote the names one by one.

The nurse looked down and couldn’t help but be surprised. “Aunt Chen, your handwriting is beautiful.”

It was written one stroke at a time with good penmanship.

Chen Shulan smiled casually and put down the pen. Then, she squinted and thought of the good-looking young man.

She thought for a while and picked up her phone to call Cheng Juan.
