306 Performance

Nangong Jue glanced at Aunt Ling and pursed his lips gloomily. Qiao Qiao had a problem with him and even her people didn’t like him… However, it was fine as long as they liked his wife.

Qiao Qiao’s piano room was very big. It was connected by two rooms and was elegantly decorated. Of course, if one ignored the dumbbell treadmill on the other side, it would really be very classy.

“Although this piano is rarely used, it’s well maintained. A tuner just came over yesterday to tune it,” Auntie Ling introduced with a smile. “I’ll prepare some fruits for you.”

“Thank you, Auntie Ling.” Le Yao was very familiar with Auntie Ling and nodded with a smile.

After Auntie Ling left, Le Yao looked at Zheng Ruyu. “Teacher Zheng, you do it.”

Zheng Ruyu was actually attracted to the piano the moment she entered. If she was not mistaken, the piano in front of her was the “Swan Wings” that had sold for 2.2 million USD at the auction in Country D three years ago. At that time, the report said that it had been bought by a mysterious rich Chinese businessman. She did not expect to see it here.

What was even more unexpected was that she actually had the chance to touch and play it.

“Teacher Zheng?” Le Yao realized that Zheng Ruyu was in a daze and couldn’t help but raise her voice.

“I’m sorry, I was shocked by this piano.” Zheng Ruyu hurriedly came back to her senses. After looking at Nangong Jue apologetically, she looked at Le Yao. “Now, let’s begin.” As she spoke, she went over and sat down.

Shuo Shuo was already very lively in front of Le Yao, but every time he saw Nangong Jue, he would be especially quiet. It was the same now. He leaned on Le Yao’s shoulder and did not move. However, Le Yao knew that he was nervous because his small hand was tightly holding her clothes. His small body was even trembling.

Nangong Jue was actually already jealous. He wished he could… swap places with that little thing.

“What are we going to do?” Le Yao sat down on the rattan chair with Shuo Shuo.

“There’s no need to do anything special, but you can let Shuo Shuo play or sit by himself.”

Le Yao let go of Shuo Shuo and placed him on the ground.

However, Shuo Shuo leaned timidly against Le Yao’s thigh and did not leave.

“Shuo Shuo.” Zheng Ruyu smiled and glanced at Shuo Shuo. “Shall we listen to the sound of the sea?”

Shuo Shuo lowered his eyes and did not speak, but he did not reject it. When he was in the orphanage previously, it was Zheng Ruyu who had been treating him. He was very relaxed with people he was familiar with.

Zheng Ruyu did not mind. She placed her hand on the keys and began to play.

Although Le Yao did not know how to play the piano, she could tell if it was good or bad. She could really hear the waves of the sea in the song.

“Shuo Shuo, can we listen to the little bird’s singing next?” Every time Zheng Ruyu wanted to play the next part, she would look at Shuo Shuo and ask softly, although Shuo Shuo would not react.

After playing three bars like this, Shuo Shuo only looked up at her and did not react much.

Zheng Ruyu knew that going too far was bad, but she really didn’t want it to end so soon. She really wanted that man to see her. However, just as she was about to play the fourth bar, Nangong Jue stood up. “Alright.”

Zheng Ruyu was shocked. She touched a key and made an ear-piercing sound. Perhaps frightened, Shuo Shuo suddenly burst into tears.
