Chapter 266 First Encounter with Musical Instruments

"How is it? Does it sound good?"

Gu Chen put away his guitar with a smug look on his face.

Yun Jiao nodded perfunctorily, her beautiful big eyes fixed on the guitar he was holding.

Those eyes were filled with curiosity; they wanted to try it.

Gu Chen couldn't avoid seeing it even if he wanted to.

He rolled his eyes and coaxed Yun Jiao, "Want to try this? Then sing a couple of lines with me."

Yun Jiao tilted her head slightly, like a beautiful and delicate kitten, which made Gu Chen completely smitten.

For the first time, he realized that children were such adorable and cute creatures.

Of course, this only applies to Yun Jiao. Before that, the children he encountered were all the kind of brats who would cry and scream at the drop of a hat, throw tantrums, and destroy things everywhere.

For example, several of his relatives have children. Once, two naughty kids ran into his house and destroyed his beloved guitar and his favorite singer's album.

So Gu Chen actually dislikes children.

Of course, seeing this beautiful little guy in Grandpa's shop today, who looks like a porcelain doll and is so well-behaved, makes it impossible to find him annoying at all.

It can only be said that people are visual creatures. When faced with a child like Yun Jiao, regardless of her personality, people will have a good impression of her at first glance because of her looks.

Yun Jiao sat down next to him, watching intently as he strummed the guitar and sang the first line of the song he had just sung.

"Did you hear that? Sing it with me once."

Yun Jiao nodded and began to sing: "The red sun shines on the sea, and the evening breeze turns cool."

Yun Jiao's linguistic talent immediately became apparent in this area; she even mastered Cantonese with ease.

When Yun Jiao opened her mouth and sang the first word, Gu Chen's eyes widened, and his pupils dilated slightly with surprise and excitement.

Yun Jiao quickly finished singing and looked at him.

His expression seemed to ask, "What's next?"

Gu Chen swallowed hard and eagerly continued singing the next line, with Yun Jiao following closely behind.

The voice was so innocent and ethereal, it sounded like a voice from another world. People outside were drawn in by the singing and couldn't help but peek out from the shop entrance.

After singing a few lines, Gu Chen couldn't hold back any longer and put down his guitar, picking Yun Jiao up in his arms.

"My goodness, Yun Jiao, you were born for this! How can someone have such a superior voice!"

"Aaaaaah!!! Why are you so small? Why did I have to meet you now?!"

Gu Chen seemed to have gone mad, hugging Yun Jiao and spinning her around a few times, then kneeling on the ground, grabbing his hair and howling to the sky.

Yun Jiao: "???"

Why is this person making such a racket?

The people outside were frightened away by his crazy behavior.

Gu Chen was actually frustrated and regretful. After all, Yun Jiao was too young. Although he really wanted to bring her into his band to be the lead singer, he knew that if he really did that, his grandfather would definitely break his legs.

Moreover, Yun Jiao is so young, she really isn't suited for a place like a bar.

But encountering such a voice and being unable to bring it back, one can imagine how heartbroken Gu Chen must have felt at that moment.

"Little sister Yunjiao, if you ever want to sing in the future, you must come to me. Also, please don't waste your voice."

Seeing that he had finished his tirade, Yun Jiao pointed at the guitar he was holding with a blank expression on her pretty face.

Gu Chen said "Oh," and then said, "Come on, I'll teach you guitar."

Inside the antique shop, the two of them taught each other diligently.

Gu Chen then had Yun Jiao try it out as well.

However, she was too small, and the guitar was too big for Yun Jiao. She could only clumsily strum it one stroke at a time.

Although the sound that popped up was choppy, there were no errors.

Gu Chen's eyes lit up even more as he looked at her.

This is truly a case of God chasing after a baby to feed it, but unfortunately it's too small.

"You like this instrument? Want to learn it? I can take you to try it out. Besides the guitar, there are other instruments you can learn." Yun Jiao nodded with sparkling eyes.

She used to sing melodies using her voice, never imagining that there were musical instruments in the human world that could produce singing sounds.

want to.

Gu Chen was smug. This time, his grandfather had lost to him. This kid clearly loved music just like him.

Just then, someone walked in through the door.

Gu Chen glanced at the unfamiliar item and said lazily, "Buying or selling? The boss isn't here, so just browse around."

"Father."

Yun Jiao got up and jogged over.

Gu Chen sat up straight immediately upon hearing her call him "Father".

He looked toward the man at the door, who had dark skin, a simple and honest demeanor, and features that were pleasing to the eye but certainly not stunning.

No, this fair and tender little dumpling is the daughter of this honest and kind-hearted dark-faced man?
How was it born?!
Gu Chen was, after all, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, and his thoughts were practically written all over his face.

He not only wrote it on his face, but he also asked the question.

"Uncle, you really are Yun Jiao's father? Then your aunt must be very beautiful. How did she raise Yun Jiao to be so beautiful, like a little fairy? How did she grow up to be so good-looking?"

Hey, this father and daughter look like they're from completely different worlds.

Of course, he himself is pretty much the same.

No matter who Yun Jiao stands next to, they all seem to belong to different worlds.

Hearing him say that, Yun Linhai was not unhappy; on the contrary, he looked proud.

Their daughter, Jiaojiao, is such a beautiful little girl, hehe.

"My daughter Jiaojiao is the prettiest girl in the village."

Gu Chen: "Not only that, I've been to this county, the city, and other cities, and I've never seen anyone prettier than her."

Yun Linhai became even more proud: "Right? I've never seen anyone prettier than her, and she's also well-behaved and filial. You don't know, not only people in our village, but even the animals love to be around her..."

The two of them showered Yun Jiao with compliments.

Yun Jiao: …………

Alas~~~~
She tugged at her father's clothes, "That's enough, that's enough, stop praising me, I'm getting embarrassed!"

With such a supportive young man, Yun Linhai reluctantly stopped showing off his daughter.

"Jiaojiao, where's your grandpa? We need to go home."

"do not."

Before Yun Jiao could say anything, Gu Chen quickly stopped her.

"My grandpa said he wanted you to stay for dinner, and he's already at the restaurant preparing. Also, I've discovered that little sister Yun Jiao is very talented in music; she likes playing musical instruments."

You two really need to nurture her talent and voice; don't waste it. If you have time, I'll take you to a music store to see if we can find her a teacher.

Since it concerned Yun Jiao's hobby, Yun Linhai also became serious.

He knew that Jiaojiao loved to sing, and that she sang exceptionally well.

But he had never thought about learning or repairing musical instruments.

After all, he was just an ordinary fisherman; he had no concept of musical instruments.

"Jiaojiao, you like it? Then let's learn it!"

Yun Linhai is clearly a doting father to his daughter.

Gu Chen was somewhat surprised, as he could also see that Yun Linhai was just an ordinary person.

Learning musical instruments and music is a very expensive hobby, and most families are unwilling to waste money on it, let alone let a little girl learn it.

He thought he would have to waste his breath to convince him, but he agreed so readily.
