The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 205

Shi Ning also did not expect Rong Dai to appear here. The moment she saw her, the smile on her face froze a little.

She had not forgotten about the incident at the Qiao family.

She had just casually acknowledged that embroidery, but Rong Dai had to take it so seriously.

This made her very uncomfortable.

But she also knew that she was in the wrong first, so she had no choice but to apologize first.

If she had not met Rong Dai here today, she would have long forgotten about that incident.

Rong Dai did not bother about that matter again.

Since Shi Ning had already promised, she should know the consequences of breaking her word.

Seeing that Rong Dai had no intention of acknowledging her, Shi Ning also did not speak, and continued greeting the people in the restaurant.

Rong Dai's thoughts were on starting her own studio after finishing filming.

Although the three women sat together, they each had their own thoughts.

Teacher Feng and the others came out when most people had arrived, and many people crowded around the teacher to greet him, wishing they could stick their faces together to get familiar with him.

The restaurant banquet was very casual. Good food and wine had been prepared, so everyone just ate, drank, and chatted.

"Miss Huo, may I ask you to perform a piece with me?"

Just as the three women were lost in their own thoughts, Gu Chengyan suddenly walked up to Huo Mei Shu and asked her in a gentle and gentlemanly voice.

Huo Mei Shu was so startled that she almost dropped her phone to the ground.

Her cheeks flushed red all of a sudden, and she looked at Gu Chengyan in panic and delight, almost unable to believe it.

Rong Dai and Qiao Wanzhou both frowned.

"Gu Chengyan, this is my younger sister, don't go too far."

How could someone as smart as Qiao Wanzhou not know what Gu Chengyan intended?

As for Huo Mei Shu herself, she still did not realize it.

The male god asked her to perform together with him, wasn't that a good thing?

Rong Dai of course also saw Gu Chengyan's intentions. He wanted to verify authenticity.

"Sister Qiao, I regretfully missed Miss Huo's recital last time. This time it's just a little compensation."

Gu Chengyan's smile was gentle, but his eyes were cold and frosty.

Rong Dai frowned. Seeing that her young sister-in-law still had a confused look on her face, she couldn't help sighing inwardly.

It seemed that Miss Ye had not taken her previous words to heart.

"Mr. Gu, my sister-in-law is unwell today."

Rong Dai spoke up. She would certainly not allow her young sister-in-law to be humiliated.

Her beautiful face wore a faint smile, but her beautiful eyes revealed a coldness and authority that made people shudder.

"If Mr. Gu wants someone to perform with him, I know a little about music and can embarrass myself."

She glanced at Ye Liyun in the distance from the corner of her eye.

Why should a woman make things difficult for another woman?

Huo Mei Shu was no fool. Seeing Rong Dai and Qiao Wanzhou speak like this, her face did not look good either.

"Senior Gu...I'm really not feeling well."

As she spoke, she secretly clenched her fists.

Ye Liyun!

What exactly did she want to do?!

Gu Chengyan's eyes froze slightly as he glanced at Huo Mei Shu, then agreed to Rong Dai's request: "Alright, then I'll have to trouble Mrs. Huo."

Rong Dai smiled shallowly without saying anything more.

No matter what Miss Ye had done, she must have planned it well.

In such an occasion, if her young sister-in-law was put in an awkward situation, with her temperament she certainly would not be able to take it.

She got up and walked elegantly over with Gu Chengyan.

When Ye Liyun saw it was Rong Dai following Gu Chengyan over, her expression stiffened slightly.

Rong Dai did not miss the flash of astonishment in her eyes, and said in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "It seems Miss Ye did not take my earlier words to heart."

Her words made Ye Liyun's face turn pale, and Gu Chengyan frowned slightly.

Rong Dai did not say anything more. The restaurant was decorated in an antique style, with a corner filled with various musical instruments.

She sat down and glanced at Gu Chengyan: "Mr. Gu, please guide me."

She really wanted to see how much ability this Mr. Gu had, to make her young sister-in-law so infatuated with him.

"I wouldn't dare. How about the song 'Dreaming of Flowers, How Many Do I Know'?"

Gu Chengyan also sat down, graceful and refined, giving off an aura that was aloof from the mundane world, very eye-catching.

Rong Dai felt a chill in her heart. Her gaze sharply swept Ye Liyun - indeed it was her mischief.

The tuning of the song was normal enough.

But her young sister-in-law's mind was filled with thoughts of him. Playing together was inevitably distracting, and one mistake would play right into their hands.

That Miss Ye could easily clear her name, while her young sister-in-law would get a reputation for jealousy.

Everyone present knew Rong Dai, after all with her frequent trending topics in the capital, and every time for unsavory reasons.

A wealthy madam who had just taken on the lead female role in this year's big production, naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Now seeing her about to perform with Gu Chengyan, the restaurant immediately quieted down, with all eyes on the two of them.

"Mr. Gu, please start us off."

Rong Dai motioned for the other party to take the lead.

Gu Chengyan did not decline either, and started playing the qin.

The tones of both qins were very good, and Gu Chengyan had studied Eastern classical music, enjoying an extremely high reputation both domestically and abroad.

Being able to hear him perform now was a great fortune.

As soon as Gu Chengyan began, Rong Dai followed closely after.

In fact, this song was not very complicated, but the important thing was the expression of emotion within.

This was a song of disappointment.

Rong Dai's qin skills were very accomplished, ingrained deeply into her soul.

So there was no issue of unfamiliarity.

Although she had only seen the music score once, she had committed it to memory.

Gu Chengyan's qin skills were also very high. He was always trying to lead Rong Dai.

But how could Rong Dai fall for that?

This was the heart and soul of her young sister-in-law. Since the other party wanted to embarrass her so much, she naturally had no need to be polite either.

She made a few adjustments, imperceptible to laymen but discernible to experts.

These adjustments were ingenious.

Ye Liyun had taken this song for her own, made unauthorized adjustments, then released it.

Although it sounded harmonious, it would affect the integrity of the song, because she did not understand the state of mind of Rong Dai's young sister-in-law.

But with Rong Dai's experience from her past life, she could fully understand her young sister-in-law's feelings.

Her adjustments were just right - they could point out Ye Liyun's adjustments, while also expressing the emotions more richly.

Hearing the two play, both Huo Mei Shu and Ye Liyun's expressions changed.
