Chapter 176: The Genius Pianist Female Lead
“Are you saying a child was driving the Pagani? That’s impossible, you must be mistaken!” Qin Yunhan insisted.
“Jingjing has sharp eyes. If she claims she saw it, then it must be true,” Xu Muyan stated confidently.
“But how would a child even reach the pedals?” Qin Yunhan pouted in confusion.
“Maybe they were standing to drive?” Xu Muyan suggested.
“That’s too far-fetched,” Qin Yunhan said, shaking her head.
“The world is vast, and there are all kinds of strange happenings.”
“That’s true. Like someone scoring nearly 700 points and still choosing Qingling University over others. If that can happen, what else is impossible?”
“I’ve told you before, I wanted to stay close to home, which is why I chose Qingling University.”
“Someone knows the real reason deep down. Just calling it shameless to put it bluntly.”
“How exactly does choosing Qingling University make me shameless?”
“I didn’t mention any names, just said ‘someone.’ Why take it personally?”
…
The conversation about the mysterious driver quickly turned into a playful verbal sparring match.
Listening to their bickering, Wang Haoran felt his head buzzing slightly.
Thankfully, the journey to Qingling University was short, and soon enough, the five of them arrived at their destination.
Wang Haoran parked the car and stepped out.
“Hey, look! It’s that Zonda car from earlier!” Qin Yunhan pointed out, spotting the car near their Maserati.
Hearing this, Wang Haoran turned to look as well.
However, the Zonda was simply parked without anyone inside.
Given this was the parking lot of Qingling University, the Pagani driver likely had business here.
The group left the parking lot, starting their exploration of the Qingling University campus.
Whenever they came across a beautiful spot, the girls took time to pose for photos.
This leisurely pace meant their exploration was slow-going.
Qingling University’s campus was quite large, and at this rate, they might be exploring until late afternoon.
Despite this, the girls remained enthusiastic.
For Wang Haoran, though, the experience was akin to accompanying someone on a shopping trip—mentally exhausting.
After about an hour, Wang Haoran opted to rest, choosing a spot to wait rather than continue on.
A few minutes later, Qin Yunhan returned to his side.
“Why are you back alone? Where’s everyone else?” Wang Haoran inquired.
“I wanted to spend some time exploring with just you,” she confessed.
“More walking?” Wang Haoran seemed less enthusiastic.
“Not far, just over there to the music academy,” Qin Yunhan gestured towards the adjacent building.
Since it was vacation time, the building was largely empty, with most classrooms locked.
However, the main entrance was open, allowing them access.
While they could traverse the building, only the staircases, corridors, and rooftop were accessible.
Uninterested in the staircases and corridors, the duo headed for the rooftop.
The music building was quite tall, allowing them a panoramic view of the campus from the rooftop.
Qin Yunhan used her phone to snap a few couple photos with Wang Haoran, featuring the campus buildings and scenery as a backdrop.
Given their good looks, the candid shots turned out stunning, even without filters.
“Alright, we’ve seen enough. Let’s head back,” Wang Haoran suggested.
“Don’t you think it’s romantic up here? Let’s stay a bit longer,” Qin Yunhan pleaded.
They sat together on the rooftop, enjoying the scenery.
Gradually, Qin Yunhan’s head found its way to Wang Haoran’s shoulder.
He glanced at her, and she shyly raised her face, eyes gently closed.
But after a while, there was no reaction from Wang Haoran.
“Is the scenery more captivating than me?” Qin Yunhan teased, highlighting her flawless, elegant face.
“Someone’s coming,” Wang Haoran alerted.
Startled, Qin Yunhan had missed the sound, but she now listened.
Footsteps were approaching.
A graceful, long-legged beauty appeared on the rooftop.
Seeing Wang Haoran and Qin Yunhan, she assumed she’d walked in on a couple and felt somewhat awkward.
Wang Haoran and Qin Yunhan couldn’t help but focus on the elegant newcomer, and Qin Yunhan suddenly exclaimed in surprise:
“Are you… Qiu Qianwei?”
“You know me?” the graceful woman stopped, surprised.
“I attended your solo piano concert with my dad. I’m a fan of yours!” Qin Yunhan said with excitement.
Seeing Qin Yunhan’s reaction, Qiu Qianwei beamed warmly, “I didn’t expect to meet such a beautiful fan here.”
Qiu Qianwei’s gaze then shifted slightly to Wang Haoran, who stood by Qin Yunhan’s side.
“I just came up here for some fresh air and the view, but it seems I’ve interrupted a moment,” Qiu Qianwei remarked.
“Oh, no, we’re just classmates, enjoying the view together,” Qin Yunhan quickly clarified, a hint of embarrassment in her voice.
“I see,” Qiu Qianwei replied, her initial awkwardness dissipating.
“Can I take a photo with you?” Qin Yunhan asked.
“Of course,” Qiu Qianwei agreed with a smile.
“Here, take my phone and make sure it’s a good one,” Qin Yunhan handed her phone to Wang Haoran, before positioning herself beside Qiu Qianwei with a suitable background.
Wang Haoran stepped back to find the right angle, capturing photos of the two together.
As he snapped pictures, he couldn’t help but scrutinize Qiu Qianwei.
Her beauty, physique, and aura ranked high—almost a perfect female lead template.
Curious, Wang Haoran subtly connected with the system for more details.
Soon, Qiu Qianwei’s information appeared:
Female Lead: Qiu Qianwei
Combat Power: 20
Charm Value: 288
Female Lead Aura: 988
Skills: Master-level Piano Performance, Master-level Music Appreciation, Master-level Music Composition, Expert-level All-Instrument Proficiency
Favorability towards Host: 20 (Very Friendly)
Surprised by what he found, Wang Haoran noted that her charm value of 288 was the highest he’d encountered so far.
Her female lead aura at 988 was also unmatched.
What’s most fascinating were her skills, designating her as a world-class musician.
But the favorability was what truly piqued his interest.
Given that Qiu Qianwei was a female lead and Wang Haoran was typically a villain in the setup, it was usual for favorability to start at 0 or even negative.
Yet, Qiu Qianwei’s favorability was already 20 after one meeting—not a coincidence but likely due to Wang Haoran’s remarkable charm value of 568.
