She went there full of expectations, and returned with her spirits crushed.
All along the way, Gu Qianqian was considering whether to give up or not. She wanted to tell Lu Zhanbei several times that she simply couldn't afford the lessons, but her love for the cello made her hesitate every time and she never managed to actually say it.
Seeing that they were almost home and feeling desperate, she finally mustered up the courage to say it: "Lu Zhanbei, I don't want to continue the lessons anymore."
"Why?"
"I think I can just learn by myself from online tutorials, and I don't need a professional teacher..."
At her words, the man frowned slightly and finally looked at her, "What's the real reason?"
Knowing Lu Zhanbei's piercing gaze, Gu Qianqian could not afford to make up any more foolish reasons. She honestly said: "It's too expensive."
