Producer System: My Girlfriend is a Cellist

"What do you mean?"

Instinctively, Lin Tian asked.

"Just what it means!"

Xu Yong was quite displeased with Lin Tian's act of playing dumb,

"Damn it, first of all, if you can really hold back and not make a move, then you're this—"

Xu Yong gave Lin Tian a thumbs up.

Then, he said with disdain:

"But marriage is such an important matter, are you truly pinning all your hopes on that world competition of yours?"

"If you lose, are you really going to wait another two years to participate again?"

"..."

This wasn't the first time Xu Yong had asked about this issue.

Every previous time, Lin Tian brushed it off, expressing his determination by saying "I've never considered the possibility of losing the competition."

However, Lin Tian knew that this time, there was no way he could avoid this question from Xu Yong.

Not only with Xu Yong, but it seemed like there was also a need for an answer in Lin Tian's own mind.

"Probably not."

Lin Tian raised his head and said seriously,

"If we don't win, I might just go for it."

"Are you just talking big?"

"I mean it."

"No kidding?"

"No kidding."

Xu Yong looked at Lin Tian for a full ten seconds.

"..."

"Okay, I might not have the guts to go through with it...." Lin Tian finally admitted defeat.

It's not that Lin Tian is weak.

It's because the other party is Gan Yanyu.

That sweet and naive person with only music on her mind.

How could he bear to?

If the world competition ended with Gan Yanyu losing completely, and Lin Tian saw her sitting there sobbing uncontrollably...

At that moment, the only thought in his head might be: If given the chance, I must win everything.

Forgot the beginning, forgot the middle,

The whole point is to restore the glory.

At that time, how could the two of them even have the mood to get married?

This is no longer a matter of whether the promise is important or not.

Even if they thought that winning the Ker Cup or not wouldn't affect their marriage,

But actually losing the competition.

How could they still have the heart to think about getting married.....

"Nonsense."

Xu Yong once again showed a look of disdain,

"You talk about 'going for it,' but you're just a coward."

"Isn't it possible that if you really had the courage to go for it, you wouldn't wait to be together until after achieving that damn dream?"

"....."

In some ways, Xu Yong was right.

If Lin Tian genuinely could force through with it, why wait until after the competition?

If he could go for it after losing, why set such a promise in the first place?

"....."

Yes.

Lin Tian remembered, this promise was proposed by Gan Yanyu.

Because she wanted to skip dating and get married directly, which led to this promise.

All in all,

Lin Tian wasn't to blame.

Therefore,

Xu Yong's questioning about why he's cowardly and finding excuses—such claims don't hold up.

In fact, from the beginning to end, Lin Tian followed Gan Yanyu's lead.

He respected Gan Yanyu's ideas, and at the same time, he was also willing to sacrifice temporary happiness for his dream.

"....."

After rational thinking, Lin Tian said:

"We've already made an agreement."

"Where is your mind going??" Xu Yong scolded.

"For us, dreams are more important than anything."

"..."

Xu Yong looked at Lin Tian, more and more puzzled as he observed him.

"Even though I can't understand or necessarily grasp your dreams....but,"

Xu Yong clarified,

"I think you're getting one thing wrong."

"Being together is one thing, getting married is another."

"After your world competition, nothing stops you from getting married."

"But I think, if being together also has to be postponed till after the competition, isn't that a bit too ridiculous?"

That's Xu Yong's point of view.

Whether or not to marry after the competition has too many uncertainties.

If you lose, then it's directly over.

Since there's love, and both love each other,

Why not just be together now!

Marriage, we can talk about that later.

Even someone like Xu Yong can see this clearly; he doesn't get why Lin Tian doesn't seem to care.

Xu Yong can't think that far, after all, he's no musician and doesn't understand the way Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu interact.

As a "commoner."

Xu Yong only knows one thing.

If you don't seize the opportunity now to be together, if you wait until you lose the competition, you won't even get to marry, let alone date.

That would be losing both the girl and the battle!

Just thinking about it is painful!

Don't let two people go round and round, and in the end, because the competition wasn't won, slowly go their separate ways, calling it "Everyone has their dreams, and shines in their own way."

A whole peaceful breakup scene.

If that happens, Xu Yong would really carry a train to Baijing overnight and end it for them all.

Su Ran would too.

"..."

"Alright."

Lin Tian patted Xu Yong on the shoulder.

He knew, Xu Yong was saying all this from his standpoint, for his good.

This was also before parting, Xu Yong, as a desk mate for three years, wanted to try one last time, to help Lin Tian.

So, Lin Tian didn't refute him, he just nodded,

"I'll think about it."

"Stop thinking, damn it, just be together already!"

Xu Yong waved his hand and cursed,

"Don't make your friend worry about you during the last meal before leaving, alright?"

"You too."

Lin Tian said.

Hearing this, Xu Yong was suddenly taken aback.

Lin Tian paused, then smiled and teased,

"You're anxious about me, why not consider yourself?"

"You, shouldn't you return to the real world by now?"

"..."

For the rest of the meal, the two of them didn't bring up this topic again.
