Chapter 3240
Even though he was only a 10-year-old child, he was more
mature than his peers, so he naturally understood what it
meant to like someone.
This Lawrence also likes Jasper!
At this moment, he clearly had this realization.
Immediately after, a crisp “start” was heard in the video, and Lawrence began playing the piano.
When William listened to Lawrence’s piano playing for the first time, he knew why Jasper would like it.
It was a kind of soulful piano playing, even if the technique wasn’t great, even if some parts of the piano playing
were
rough, it still had a charm that couldn’t be hidden.
And this “Transcendental Etude No. 12 Chasse-neige”, he could also play it. In terms of technique, he might even be

However… his performance lacked soul, like a robot playing the piano.
Even his piano teacher had said that his piano playing was technically sound, but lacked a certain infectious quality.
But this was something that Lawrence possessed!
Is this what talent is?
His talent was in technique, while Lawrence’s talent was in
infectiousness.
Only skills can be improved through practice and guidance, but what about infectiousness? That cannot be
compensated for in any way!
William closed the video and went to the piano room. He sat in
front of the piano, opened the cover, and began to play.
What he played was also Transcendental Etude No. 12
Chasse-neige, which is the same piece Lawrence played in the
video.
But anyone with some knowledge of music can hear the
difference.
Why is it that, no matter how skilled he is, he can’t seem to
play the feeling that Jasper likes? William keeps playing over and over again, even though his ten fingers are
already hurting, but Grace doesn’t stop.
I don’t know how long it had been when the door to the music room was pushed open and Philip walked in. He
looked at his son, who was playing the piano like a machine, and furrowed
his brow slightly. After a moment, he walked up and took hold
of his son’s hand.
The sound of the qin suddenly stopped.
William suddenly came to his senses and looked up at his
father, “I want to practice playing the piano a little more.”

“I want to practice, maybe if I practice more, I can play better,”
said William. Perhaps that way,
“But even if you play better, what does it matter?” Philip said. “I thought you should know what’s important to you.
You want to hold onto the people you care about, and the piano won’t
make that decision.” xo.com fast update
William bit his lip slightly. He had chosen to return to the Barlow family with the hope of standing by Jasper’s side
and becoming someone worthy of her.
“Although the piano can certainly enhance one’s skills, it is merely an embellishment. In this world, there are many
skilled pianists, and there will always be someone better than you. You can never be certain that your piano skills
are superior to
everyone else’s,” said Philip.
“But Jasper likes the piano,” murmured William.
“So instead of being the person playing the piano, why not be the person who listens to someone else play?
Wouldn’t that be better?” said Philip. “You don’t have to do everything yourself, but you can be the person who
makes the decisions! As long as you have enough decision-making power, you can make
your destiny follow your own ideas, right?”
