Sweet Beloved Reborn

Proofread by Liang Yaping

“Hello.”

The girl behind the door with her hand on the doorknob is ready to open the door. Her long curly hair is tied into a ball. She wears a light blue dress. Her skin is fair and her facial features are beautiful, which presents an unapproachable temperament.

She nods to Song Qinghuan who stands outside the door and steps aside.

“Hello.” Song Qinghuan tilts her head and smiles. Ignoring her unapproachable temperament, Song Qinghuan extends her hand and a greeting, “I’m Song Qinghuan, your future roommate.”

“Shen Yinian,” the girl holds her hand, impassive but with a sweet voice, saying “I know you”.

Song Qinghuan’s smile grows bigger. Certainly, she knows the girl in front of her.

In her previous life, it was the girl right in front of her who opened a window of life for her and showed great kindness to her. They got along well with each other, but both of them were ruined by Song Shuyao who took the place of her.

Born into a family of artists, Shen Yinian is the youngest and most talented pianist in China. At the age of 12, she won the championship of International Chopin Piano Competition. Now, she is 18 years old. At the end of last year, Shen family held the first solo concert for her. Her solo concerts are all sellouts since then, and she is described as a talented girl.

Although it occurred in her previous life, Song Qinghuan still remembers it when she sees Shen Yinian, because the runner-up in the International Chopin Piano Competition was herself.

Unexpectedly, Song Qinghuan knows Shen Yinian in this fashion after rebirth.

As a top institute, Xinghan is equipped with luxurious dormitories where two students share one room with a private bathroom, kitchen and a soundproof practice room.

The door of the practice room is open, and the furnishings inside are of a simple and comfortable style. A white piano already stands there. Shen Yinian explains that all her things were moved in two days ago.

“And where is your instrument?” Shen Yinian looks at Song Qinghuan, who is unpacking her suitcase.

After the unpacking, Song Qinghuan turns to Shen Yinian with a playful wink, saying: “It will be delivered soon.”

Just then, Song Qinghuan’s phone rings. The call is from the delivery man informing her that the instrument she bought arrives.

Two delivery men unseal several boxes in front of Song Qinghuan who inspects them personally. Shen Yinian finds that her instrument is not a piano, but Guzheng, a musical string instrument in China.

The lacquer on the Guzheng has broken lines. It’s made of quality material. The shape of the phoenix tail is lifelike. It can be seen that the Guzheng was well maintained. It has been tuned by a professional tuner. Therefore, when Song Qinghuan is playing the Guzheng for a try, the clear sound echoes in the practice room, quieting the whole world.

Shen Yinian, who was born and grew up in an art family, concludes that the Guzheng is a famous instrument with a long history.

They met each other for the first time in a piano competition. Now when they meet for the second time, Shen Yinian finds out that Song Qinghuan has changed her instrument, asking with surprise, “Did you sign up for the Traditional Instruments Department?”

“Huh?” Song Qinghuan’s fingers are trembling because she is so excited at the new instrument. She looks at Shen Yinian and explains with a smile: “No, I’m in the Department of Musicology. How about you?”

The Musicology Department of Xinghan has 7 branches, including Chinese music history, Chinese traditional music theory, western music history, music aesthetics, world folk music theory, music and arts management, music therapy, and folk music laboratory.

Compared with Shen Yinian, who was born into a piano family, Song Qinghuan learned to play various musical instruments under the arrangement of the old lady. The teacher, who taught her etiquette in her childhood, majored in Guzheng and she was born in an educated family and behaved like an elegant lady.

Because she was so close to Song family that she not only taught Song Qinghuan etiquette but also Guzheng. Song Qinghuan liked this kind of instrument very much. Although the old lady didn’t stop her directly, she was forbidden to play it at home since, in the old lady’s opinion, this kind of instrument was not as elegant and classy as piano.

Fearing the arbitrary old lady, she had to learn playing the piano. She did not proceed to learn Guzheng and other traditional instruments in the composition department until she went to university where Song Shuyao should have gone.

“I’m in the Piano Department.”

Shen Yinian finally smiles and has no guard in her eyes. She likes the way she gets along with her new roommate, which makes her feel very relaxed.

After the cleaning and tidying, Song Qinghuan and Shen Yinian visit Xinghan Conservatory of Music together. They are beautiful in appearance and temperament. Song Qinghuan is friendly and lively, while Shen Yinian is self-contained and quiet. Walking together, they are virtually a beautiful and moving view on compus.

Compared with Shen Yinian who leaves an unapproachable and exclusive impression on others, Song Qinghuan, who is beside her, with a pair of smart and clear big eyes, attracts others with her innocent smile. She is like the rising sun in winter, which fascinates people’s eyes .

In Shen Yinian’s view, Song Qinghuan is extremely cute.

These two beauties already enjoy much popularity. Song Qinghuan became an overnight sensation during the summer vacation. Soon, the photos of them walking around the campus together are posted on the homepage of Xinghan.

Xinghan Conservatory of Music is called XCOM for short. There is a gossip post in the “poetic year” section in the online forum, which becomes a hot topic with both pictures and texts.

The title is written in a crude and oversimplified way: Two Freshman Beauties, Song Qinghuan vs Shen Yinian!!

The thread starter: Ah ah ah, I can’t control myself, so I come to post!

Following XCOM’s rule, pictures come first.

I took them to visit the Piano Department. When meeting them face to face, I fell in love for the first time! At that time, I felt the sweetness of first love!

Song Qinghuan and Shen Yinian in the picture are in white and blue respectively. With her bright smile, Song Qinghuan looks more charming than the blue sky and white cloud above their head.

The thread starter gave a close-up of Song Qinghuan’s eyes when he snapped the picture where the outer corners of this young girl’s eyes are thin, slightly curved, and extended, which are very lovely and charming.

Song Qinghuan in the picture is laughing and chatting with Shen Yinian beside her. Her bright eyes are full of smile, curved, and very fascinating.

Song Qinghuan just became an overnight sensation in the summer vacation. When everyone thinks she is going to take advantage of it to make her debut, this young and beautiful girl known as “first lover” does not follow that but furthers her study which can be read from the news posted by netizens.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

At first, netizens thought that it was the MV that gave people an illusion about Song Qinghuan. Now, Song Qinghuan in the pictures snapped by others is way more beautiful and charming.

The second follower: Upper post, I cannot agree with you more. As a girl, I even cannot move my eyes from her. What a shame, gonna lurk…
