After some time, Xion slowly understood the difference between the instrument mastery, just by getting proper teaching on how to play an instrument then the mastery increased, not just by the skill but also the knowledge has to be learned to increase the mastery of the instrument.
He then made up his mind and asked Yuyeon, "Mom, can you arrange a music class for me? I wanted to learn more about music and instruments.." Wang Zhanglei was passing by and listening to his grandson's wishes, then straightly asked his grandchild, Xion.. do you want to be a musician?
I'm not sure about grandpa, I just want to learn for the time, because I don't have any school or activities now. I just wanted to learn. Seeing his grandson's eagerness, he then looked at Yiren and asked, "How about you? Are you interested too?
Yiren, being asked so suddenly, was caught by surprise and then said, I just wanted to learn together with my brother, anything is fine by me grandpa, yiren replied awkwardly trying to get used to her new family.
Seeing this situation, Wang Zhanglei just smiled and said back to her, you may have what your brother has, but you have to learn how to shape your destiny, your future is yours, it is by your design, not by others. I want you to understand this.
Yiren, understanding every word that his grandpa said, then uttered "I understand that grandpa, but for now I just want to be with you all", Understanding her answer, Wang Zhanglei then asked Yuyeon to prepare the best education for both of them, thus Yuyeon then prepared a whole list of courses for both her child from math to science, from economy to business planning as she knows Xion's grandpa wanted him to inherit the Hospital and manage it, several language mastery, music, and instrument lesson, and she just home-schooled both her child for 5 years. just like that, 5 years passed in the blink of an eye.
One Year Later, On their family vacation, Wang Family is attending a gathering with their hospital employees. It was a merry and warm afternoon. Xion and Yiren were having a good time and are resting in the hall.
"Brother, there's a piano there, would you mind playing me some songs?" Everyone is kinda busy preparing for tonight's barbeque, so it will be a good thing if you played the piano now," asked Yiren intently.
"Sure, but only if you sing to it too, I'll be too embarrassed if I played solo," replied Xion.
"Mmmm, kay..." pouted Yiren.
Xion then take a seat at the piano and started to play. The melodies started to engulf the hall as the people listening... At that moment, the divinity traits in Xion's head and hands activated, and his plays become flowy and flawless.
"Ah, as expected from the CEO's son. He is truly as talented as his parent's"
"these melodies ease my mind a lot, might be listening to it more.."
"he's talented"
"huff, rich kids really have a difference with us workers.."
"His mother can play instruments well, but the son is on another level, their blood in art is deep indeed"
Those are the thoughts of people that pass the hall and listen to Xion's play.
Wang Zhanglei entered the hall and observe the people and was surprised to find they are listening to Xion's play.
"Well, it seems that he did learn everything enthusiastically and engraved it well in his mind. But still, you have to inherit the hospital that your father has built from zero."
"I better inform Yuyeon so she can be prepared him more" thinking Wang Zhang Lei
Wang Zhang lei then left the hall and find Yuyeon.
"Yes Father, I will make sure to you that he will inherit the Hospital, I've asked the home-school teachers to add his materials with economics and business management too," Yuyeon replied steadfastly.
"Good, we will talk about this later, but just prepared everything."
Meanwhile, in the hall, Xion is finishing his plays, and rain of applause was showered on him.
"I didn't know that there's a lot of people listening to me, I guess I am motivated more to become an artist now, I should thank Yiren for this," Xion assured himself.
"Brother, you didn't give me a chance to join your performance... you are so immersive in it," Yiren speaks, breaking Xion's imagination.
"I did?" He asked back. "Yes, and you are great as usual. I am so proud of you."
"Thank you, because of you, I am happy too, and sorry... I will try to listen more to my surroundings later."
"do you think you wanted to become a pianist?"
"I don't know, I haven't decided yet for now" Xion lied.
Ok, I see... Yiren's voice becomes lowered as she walks away...
Yiren now grows to become a beautiful girl, with clear skin, long and straight hair to her waist, a small and chiseled face that makes people who see her want to protect her, with good upbringing and have the aura of a princess, her brown eyes are shining bright and attractive, with small lips and rosy cheeks in minimal make-up.
Xion himself grows to be an attractive young man, with a height of about 6 feet makes him above average height but not too tall, with the light silver hair and light green eyes as his trademark, every eye will surely turn to look at him.
Last year on the fourth day after the second full moon of autumn in September, Wang Zhanglei passed away at 81 years old, because of old age, there was a large smile on his face that can be seen by everyone that came to his funeral, so Yuyeon, Xion and Yiren didn't mourn much after that knowing how happy their old man is in the last days of his life. But still, one thing is burdened Xion greatly, his grandpa's last wish for him to inherit the future of the hospital management, which crossed with his intention to become an artist. He just keeps it with him all the time.
On the First day of Winter, Xion then checks his system again. it's been 3 years since he build his skill sets and checked his system every time.

Xion is surprised when seeing his status based on the system standard.. compared to other people of the same age his mastery can be considered top notched.
He's now 17 years old, and because of his providence, unknowingly Yiren who often learned together with him, has the same ability as him but just some points lower than him.. due to Group Learning traits, since all that he learned also being taught to Yiren, this traits then count Yiren as part of the group and enhanced Yiren's Knowledge too. The five stars on Guitar mastery means he already mastered Bass, Electric, Electro-Acoustic, Classical, and Acoustic Guitar all to the point of Master level ones.
When Xion finally mastered the five guitar, a perks was introduced to him via system. A clone of him was present in a small area inside his mind. Around the area, there are instruments that he has learned, scattered. The clone can pick the instrument and play it for Xion to gain experience passively.
One day, Xion and Yiren are having time together in a cafe, Xion is having his Ice Coffee Latte and Yiren is having her Strawberry Parfait, the atmosphere in the cafe is nice because most tables are occupied.
The siblings are sitting next to a glass wall facing the street.. because of the duo's appearance that caught people's eye.. most of the people are watching them closely with unknown things running through their minds.
Many people in the cafe are talking slowly but most of the topics are running around the siblings. Yiren then talked to his brother in Korean…
"Hyung, I want to be an Idol '' Xion then answered back "good for you, you are more than capable of being one, be the best so that mom can be proud of you "No, Hyung listen… I want to be an Idol.. we will get our Senior High School Degree soon, but I want to get it in Seoul, especially in Hanlim or SOPA in Seoul, I want you to get it together with me there, I was thinking, it's been so long since we have our friends.
"It's only you and me all along, and I miss having other girls to talk to, I've rarely made friends in here and you too, it's just you and me all the time. but now I want to have more friends, we didn't have another family here besides Aunty Shen and some of our late grandpa's acquaintances. I wanted us, you, me, and mom to open a new chapter of the story in mom's birth city, do you want to move together with me and mom too"?
"It's been so long since mom left Seoul. I can tell that she missed the city too but was hesitant to go abroad because of us. What do you say?"
Xion pondered for a few moments, thinking about his sister, his mom, and the unknown future. But later he just took a deep breath and exhaled, "I'll try to talk to mom, but whatever decision mom takes about staying in Seoul, you have to accept it.. at least I am pretty sure I can convince her about us graduate from Hanlim or SOPA but not to stay at Seoul". Xion's mind keeps revolving around his grandpa's last wishes...
Yiren seemed delighted and smiled brightly towards his brother.. "Thanks Hyung.. I won't forget this.." it's not Hyung you silly, it's Oppa, I am your dearest brother so you should pamper me with love abundantly", corrected Xion.
Yiren just stood and pecked his cheek, while Xion just sat there enjoying the moment. Unknown to the siblings, many hearts have broken that instant because of that small action from Yiren.
Since both of them are talking in Korean, and only a few people around them understand Korean, they just focused on the word "Oppa" since it significantly means endearment to someone close, they mistook it for a lover.
Yiren then moved to the toilet to fix her appearance even though it wasn't necessary, she took the habit from Yuyeon since Yuyeon always checks herself in the toilet whenever she feels uncomfortable.
"huffft, Yiren, i wanted to become an artist too, but granpa and mom want me to become the CEO for the hospital... i just can't wrap my head at the moment, that is why i seems to have no goals..." Xion blurted out his mind toward the road outside..
When Yiren came, Xion's already finished his Iced Coffee Latte and Her Parfait that was halfway eaten.. she just casually grabbed Xion's hand and dragged him towards the cashier to pay for the dessert.
Seeing both of them walking out of the cafe, the male and female in the cafe sighed deeply feeling they had lost something important in their life.
Later that night, in the living room, Yuyeon was watching a K-drama when the siblings arrived home, seeing her mother is watching the drama alone, Xion took the initiative that moment and signed her sister to sit next to her mother, after a couple of minutes watching the drama together, Xion then speaks "mom, do you miss Seoul?"
Yuyeon then turned her head to face her son and replied "a little bit, maybe because of old age that I started to miss those memories", "how about we move to Seoul mom? probe Xion.
Xion asked again " I think i wanted to go to Seoul" , Yuyeon looked surprised by her son's statement and stayed silent thinking about something else. Xion then speaks out about wanting to have friends from school and a new environment away from Hongkong, but doesn't mention Yiren's dream about being an Idol or about enrolment in the school specifically…
Yuyeon then speaks about her opinion, "I prefer that we should take a trip first to Seoul for sightseeing before you decided to move out for schooling, just consider this as a vacation abroad, what do you think about it? asked the mother of the children.
Yiren spoke first, it's okay mom, we haven't had a vacation at all.. maybe we need it now... Xion just gives an eye-roll and says.. okay mom, let's have this vacation. I also wanted to enlarge my knowledge, i remembered that when i was still in the hospital, you usually told me about those places with great views or good food, i want to try it all..." urged Xion.
After that night's conversation, Yuyeon prepared everything for their vacation but unknown to the duo, Yuyeon prepared a whole round trip before going to Seoul, thinking that the family indeed needed vacation she booked a flight to Miami, Los Angeles, Beijing, Tokyo and then Seoul.
Every place has certain concerts that she thinks the younger generation will surely like. "I think this concerts will do great for vacation, especially when both of them enjoyed with music and instruments, these concert list will makes them know about how broad is the world, and many things in it..." Eagerly Yuyeon prepared everything happily...
