Chapter 68: New Task

~8 min read 1,409 words

Li Yan walked through the long corridor and finally reached the practice room he was familiar with, pushing the door open.

Only one overhead light was on in the room, and a black upright piano stood steadily in the center, seemingly waiting for him.

He walked to the piano bench, put down his bag first, pulled out the sheet music and placed it on the music stand, then rotated his wrists to warm up his joints, and then tried playing a few simple chords to warm up.

Looking out the half-covered window, the clear morning light spilled in, making the piano room look quiet and gentle.

He played the main melody once and passed it easily in less than twenty seconds;

immediately after, he tried to bring in his left hand, but stumbled at a turn, and Li Yan frowned.

Teacher Wang had also specifically talked about the fingering application here yesterday, but integrating it into the overall beat wasn't easy.

He immediately slowed down, broke it down section by section, and confirmed it was fine before putting it back together.

Just like that, it took more than ten minutes to smooth out the difficult points, and he was gradually able to keep up with the rhythm of the metronome.

The piano sound coming from the piano room wasn't melodious, and it was even further from being called a beautiful melody.

But it was precisely this stumbling piano sound that could make Liu Yifei, standing at the front desk, feel full of longing in her heart.

It was true that she had signed up for the Computer Science major, but Liu Yifei envied those students who could play the piano.

Liu Yifei naturally also had a heart that longed for art, but her family conditions didn't allow it.

Choosing the Computer Science major was just to find a high-paying job after graduation.

As time passed, more students came to the tutoring class for lessons, and the piano sound coming from the piano room gradually made it impossible to hear that "Little Star Variations" clearly.

Liu Yifei took one last look in the direction of the piano room, hugged the thick stack of flyers in her arms, swung her ponytail, and walked into the scorching sun.

We all have a bright future.

"Come, don't be in a hurry, try slowing down a beat."

"Okay."

【Task completed, reward: Intermediate Piano Skill and Skin Texture and Fairness Enhancement; skin changes will be fully digested within three days.】

Three days of hard work turned into a real reward at this moment.

This could be considered the most nerve-wracking task Li Yan had done since obtaining the system.

Fortunately, it was now successfully completed.

When the tail note of the "Little Star Variations," which was a bit stumbling but still completely played, fell,

many memories unconsciously appeared in Li Yan's mind.

Those were skills related to the piano, various transpositions, fingering techniques, finger flexibility, etc., all of which seemed to be imprinted in his heart as if he were born with them.

Li Yan exhaled a breath and checked the time.

It was already 11:30 in the morning; the piano task was completed, so Li Yan planned to head to the 4S dealership to pick up the car.

Striving to get things like tinting and license plates done in one afternoon; after all, this was his first car, and Li Yan's mood was relatively excited.

Li Yan sat on the piano bench, although he felt a bit itchy in his hands at this moment and really wanted to play Asong he liked completely, such as "Castle in the Sky," "Bird's Poem," or "Attack on Titan," etc.

But Li Yan also knew that playing here was a bit too shocking.

After all, he had just learned "Little Star Variations," and being able to play such non-introductory pieces at this time was really not very appropriate.

【Pick up photography skills again, use the camera to record beauty. With the help of the system, participate in the 2023 Shudu Landscape Photography Contest and win the top three; reward: height increase of 3CM, task bonus of 100,000 yuan.】

Immersing his mind in his brain, looking at the new task that appeared in his mind.

Photography?

When he was in high school, in order to pick up girls, he had indeed learned photography.

But that wasn't professional photography; he just simply learned some knowledge about composition and light and shadow.

But it had to be said, the skill of photography might be the best skill for picking up girls in Li Yan's opinion.

Even the skill of guitar couldn't keep up.

When Li Yan learned guitar, he thought he would fascinate thousands of girls, but he only understood later.

The role of learning guitar was mostly for playing to those male classmates who only knew how to howl.

He even received much more praise and admiration from male classmates than from female classmates.

But it had to be said, with three or five friends, drinking a little wine, when slightly tipsy, playing Asong by Wu Bai or David Tao,

singing the melody he liked while borrowing the drunkenness, this feeling was much better than purely using it to pursue girls.

Purely in terms of picking up girls, guitar couldn't compare to piano; it was far behind.

But photography was different.

First of all, taking out a good camera, just the lens alone would cost tens of thousands, and that was considered cheap.

If you add the lens, the price spent would be very high.

This was a kind of low-key showing off of wealth; although girls didn't understand, they could show off more smoothly.

Plus, almost all girls couldn't resist the matter of taking a good-looking photo, and the girls he came into contact with were all somewhat confident in their looks.

After taking the photo, add WeChat to send the photo, and everything would fall into place.

As long as he wasn't too stupid later on, he basically wouldn't lack a girlfriend.

Haven't you seen that photographers at anime conventions, street photography, private shoots, etc., have never lacked girlfriends?

The most infuriating thing was that one was better-looking than the other...

Li Yan remembered the camera gathering dust at home and also remembered the "Seraphine" he met on the road yesterday.

Regarding this task of the system, participating in the 2023 Shudu Landscape Photography Contest and winning the top three, Li Yan felt the difficulty was quite high.

This wasn't a problem that could be solved by his technique of taking private photos for girls; this was something that required more professional aesthetics, light and shadow, composition, and post-processing to have hope of winning.

Before, he just let the girls do whatever they wanted; city landscape? Besides taking photos to show off on Moments to attract girls, he hadn't really tried it much?

But fortunately, there was a note in front: with the help of the system.

If Li Yan were to complete this task alone, that was out of the question.

After all, the contestants were definitely professionals who made a living from this; Li Yan wasn't that confident yet.

Getting up, taking his bag, and hailing a taxi to the 4S dealership, the Mercedes G-Class was already waiting for him~

Li Yan temporarily put the new task aside, although he felt this Shenhao System wasn't that pure.

Other people's Shenhao Systems rewarded hundreds of millions or billions every few days; why did he have to learn this and that when it came to him?

And the rewards so far hadn't reached the level of tens of millions or hundreds of millions; if he said it out loud, how would other Shenhao Systems look at him?

How would the readers look at him? How would other protagonists look at him?

Following the rhythm, at this time, not to mention buying a manor, at the very least, a super large flat or a big villa in Tomson Riviera should be there, right?

There should be a few small goals in the card, right?

There should be at least seven or eight girls, right?

Li Yan muttered to himself while complaining about his system, walking lightly towards the door; reward 100,000 yuan? Reward height increase of 3CM?

Looking at the balance of 15.88 million in his card, and thinking about his current height of 177cm, Li Yan could only say one sentence.

"Hmm, so fragrant!" ===== CHAPTER 69 =====
