Peninsula: My mentor Kim Tae-yeon

"Outrageous..." Kim Tae-yeon was speechless.

She was truly speechless now.

What could she say?

"Did you just crawl into the piano?" Su Xia changed the subject, not wanting to discuss this crazy topic that crossed the line of professional ethics any further.

"Yes, I can crawl in and check the material." Kim Tae-yeon nodded.

"Wouldn't I be able to make a fortune by becoming a blogger who inspects used cars?" Su Xia stroked her chin. "You can just crawl inside and inspect flood-damaged cars, accident-damaged cars, and cars with engine problems, then tell me, and I'll tell the buyer and make a commission from their inspection!"

"Oh right, you can also be a helpful citizen and check each wall to see if there are any hidden corpses."

"Also, you can get information from wealthy people and make money as an information broker!"

Su Xia's eyes lit up, and all sorts of clever ideas started popping into her head.

Kim Tae-yeon's eyelids twitched as she listened from the side.

Vehicle inspections are normal enough, but why do they also have to check corpses and sell information?

If this happened in a TV series, wouldn't they actually get assassinated?

"Ahem, I think we should practice piano instead." Kim Tae-yeon interrupted Su Xia's wandering thoughts, afraid that if he continued to drift off, he would become an assassin on the dark web.

"Alright then." Su Xia reluctantly stopped her daydreaming.

What song do you want to learn?

"You've made a mistake!" Su Xia replied instantly.

"What song is this?"

Su Xia didn't say anything, but searched for the piano sheet music of "Love Wrong" on the search engine and played the music of "Love Wrong" in the background.

After the song ended.

"I've heard this song before with you, and now I remember it," Kim Tae-yeon said, her eyes lighting up.

"Of course, this is my second brother's song, Zhou Wang Tao Lin, the Four Heavenly Kings of my childhood."

Each generation has its own Four Heavenly Kings.

The Four Heavenly Kings of Su Xia's parents' generation are the official Four Heavenly Kings, while the Four Heavenly Kings of Su Xia's generation are more of a fan-favorite, unofficially recognized group: the Jay Chou, Wang Zhe, Tao Yuanming, and Lin Xiangru Four Heavenly Kings.

Of course, there is also a version that is Zhou, Wang, Tao, and Chen, replacing JJ Lin with Eason Chan. However, Eason Chan is rarely mentioned among these four in recent years, and he is listed separately, on par with Zhou, Wang, Tao, and Lin.

But no matter how you rank them, Wang Leehom is always in the top three; he's always on the list.

"This song isn't easy to sing, and the piano pieces are quite challenging. Are you sure you want to learn this one?" Kim Tae-yeon glanced at the sheet music and asked.

"I know 'Loving the Wrong Person' is hard to sing, but is the sheet music difficult too?"

"The sheet music you found isn't simple; it's a solo sheet in Db major. While it's not particularly difficult, it still requires a certain level of basic skills and fingering. There must be an easier version of this kind of song. Why don't you practice the easier version?" Kim Tae-yeon asked.

"No, anyone can do the easy version, I want this challenging one!"

"Alright then." Kim Tae-yeon nodded. "I'll teach you the basics of piano first, but since you already have some music theory knowledge, it won't take too much time."

"This is……"

Kim Tae-yeon stood beside the piano, explaining the basics of piano to Su Xia.

As Su Xia listened to Kim Tae-yeon's story, her eyes lingered on Kim Tae-yeon out of the corner of her eye.

Today, Kim Tae-yeon unusually tied up her long, loose hair, creating a neat and tidy ponytail. She wore a white ribbed tank top with a white fluffy hooded shirt draped over it, giving her a soft and fluffy look. Overall, she exuded a fresh and relaxed vibe.

It's often said that serious men are the most handsome, and conversely, serious women are equally charming in the eyes of men.

"There are a few things to pay attention to in this piece, as it's easy to play the wrong notes." Kim Tae-yeon looked at the piano, her eyes shining like the stars in the sky.

"My teacher told me that whenever you play a wrong note, you should punish yourself by pausing for three seconds, just like this."

Kim Tae-yeon suddenly fell silent.

The sudden silence plunged the entire music room into tranquility. In the quiet atmosphere, Su Xia could clearly hear her own heartbeat.

poof...

poof...

poof...

Why does it feel like my heart is beating a little too fast?

Is it just my imagination?

"Because silence allows for better reflection on one's mistakes." Kim Tae-yeon's face held a look of reminiscence.

Su Xia looked at her profile and wondered if she had thought of the person who had told her those words.

But Su Xia felt that when they were silent, their heartbeats became especially clear, but... he couldn't hear Kim Tae-yeon's heartbeat.

"Why are you daydreaming?" Kim Tae-yeon waved her hand in front of Su Xia's eyes, drawing his attention back.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Oh, I was wondering which of your ex-boyfriends the person who taught you was?" Su Xia said with a chuckle.

"That's my teacher!" Kim Tae-yeon said sternly. "That's your grandmaster, show some respect, kid!"

"Your teacher?" Su Xia looked at Kim Tae-yeon in surprise. "Do celebrities have teachers too?"

"Not necessarily, but The One is indeed my mentor." Kim Tae-yeon said earnestly, her expression changing when she mentioned The One.

"Like us?" Su Xia asked curiously.

"No." Kim Tae-yeon instantly withdrew her respectful gaze and instead looked at Su Xia with disdain.

"I have great respect for Teacher The One, and Teacher The One is very pleased with me as his prized student, unlike you, a rebellious student who shows absolutely no respect for your teacher!"

"Heh." Su Xia sneered, "Your teacher hasn't been spying on you for over a year, of course your sect is harmonious."

Kim Tae-yeon's face stiffened, and her previous strong aura vanished instantly. She muttered softly, "I'm a victim too."

"hehe."

"Ahem, let's get back to the topic!"

Su Xia rolled her eyes but didn't say anything more.

When it came to the chorus, Su Xia got a little stuck.

"Press down a little, press down a bit more." Kim Tae-yeon practically pressed her face against the piano keys, watching Su Xia's fingers move one key at a time as she spoke.

"Yes, yes, that's the right amount of force and sound."

"You must remember this touch pressure. When I'm no longer here, you must play it the way I'm teaching you now," Kim Tae-yeon instructed.

"You talk like you might suddenly die at any moment," Su Xia retorted.

"Get out of here!" Kim Tae-yeon rolled her eyes at him. "Did you remember the pressure? Do it again."

"Who am I?" Su Xia said dismissively, pressing the button with the correct pressure and sound.

Kim Tae-yeon nodded in satisfaction.

Teaching students is actually quite simple. How come The One teacher was scratching his head and bristling when he was teaching himself?

It seems the teacher's teaching level is far inferior to mine.

Wow, Kim Tae-yeon, how can you be so amazing? You excel at everything you do!

Su Xia stared blankly at Kim Tae-yeon, who had suddenly stopped talking and whose mouth was stretched to her ears.

What's wrong with Old Deng?
