"How was it?" Ye Xiu didn't pay any attention to Young Master Lu, who was still talking endlessly, and returned to the small circle.
"Your hand shape is too ugly," Tang Rou sighed.
"My left hand is fine, but my right hand feels a little awkward," Ye Xiu said.
"Why?" Chen Guo asked.
"My right hand is used to holding the mouse," Ye Xiu said.
"..."
"Actually, you only know this one song, right?" Chen Guo said.
"Of course not!" Ye Xiu said decisively.
"Oh?" Chen Guo was surprised.
"I know another one," Ye Xiu said.
"..." Chen Guo was speechless again. There was not much difference between knowing one song and knowing two, right? It seemed that this guy was really just practicing his hand speed.
"What other song do you know?" Tang Rou asked with interest.
"The third movement of the Pathetique," Ye Xiu said.
"Oh." Tang Rou nodded.
"What's that?" Chen Guo asked shamelessly.
"Beethoven's' Pathetique 'sonata. It's divided into three movements. The third movement is fast-paced," Tang Rou said.
"Uh..." Chen Guo looked at Ye Xiu with a complicated expression. Beethoven was such a great name. It was hard for her to associate it with this guy in front of her, even in this situation.
Young Master Lu was even more upset when he saw them chatting harmoniously. He completely ignored the club staff who tried to give him a way out and approached them step by step. "It's not over yet. Don't run!"
"Do we still need to perform? Do you want me to show everyone a set of boxing? "Baozi immediately jumped out excitedly.
"Boxing?" Young Master Lu was stunned. From his hesitation, it seemed that this was not something he was good at.
"Are you threatening me?" Young Master Lu looked at the eager guy who was waving his fists and said.
Baozi looked confused. "Threatening? Wasn't this a talent show? I'll do it once, and you do it once. If you can't do it, then you lose. That's it. "
Young Master Lu was instantly enraged. This guy was deliberately coming out to humiliate him! He hadn't even settled the score from before, and these guys actually wanted to take the initiative to attack.
"If you want to play this game, it should be my turn first. You guys did the same, right?" Young Master Lu said.
"That makes sense!" Baozi nodded. "Then what are you going to perform?"
"I'll play a song too, if …"
"Eh? Didn't you say you didn't know how to do it? "Baozi interrupted him and asked doubtfully.
"Who says I won't!" Young Master Lu was furious.
"You clearly couldn't play it just now," Baozi said.
"What's that? I want to play real music! "Young Master Lu shouted.
"Real music? What's that? "Baozi was puzzled.
"You'll know soon enough." Young Master Lu smiled confidently and walked over to the piano. He knew in his heart that although that guy's hand speed and completely disregard for the rhythm of the music was surprising, it was nothing. That guy actually played a little trick. However, music was not something that could be conquered by fast playing. Young Master Lu believed that if he played a piece of music, with the quality of these people here, it would be obvious who was better. The way he played was just to scare the laymen who did not know anything!
As if he was afraid of being stopped, Young Master Lu quickly ran to the piano.
The cocktail party had already entered a state of stagnation. Everyone was staring blankly at this farce, but as Young Master Lu began to play, everyone was gradually attracted by the melody he played. Even for someone like Chen Guo, who didn't have much appreciation, she could tell who was better just by using the simple reason of how nice it sounded.
"He really played well." Tang Rou also nodded.
"Do you want to applaud and encourage him?" Ye Xiu didn't care at all.
"How are you going to deal with this now?" Chen Guo asked.
"Do you think it's a good idea to ignore him?" Ye Xiu said.
"Despicable!" Chen Guo wasn't in a good mood. To put it bluntly, this time, Ye Xiu had left too big of an opening, allowing others to seize the opportunity to launch a strong counterattack. Even Chen Guo could tell that this was better, not to mention the others. Once that guy finished playing, he would arrogantly come over and provoke him. Being forced to do something beyond one's ability, "ignoring him" was really a very embarrassing solution.
"Let Little Tang do it," Ye Xiu said.
"Oh?" Chen Guo looked at Tang Rou.
"Look at how clear and logical she is. You can tell that she's an expert," Ye Xiu said.
"Right?" Chen Guo had always felt that Tang Rou was definitely not a simple person.
"Yeah … compared to Ye Xiu, I dare to call this one a god." Tang Rou smiled.
"Then compared to this one?" Chen Guo said.
Tang Rou smiled, but didn't answer.
While they were talking, Young Master Lu also finished playing. The audience applauded realistically. Young Master Lu also seemed to be very satisfied with his performance. He bowed left and right to express his gratitude, thanking everyone for being able to see the real deal and not be fooled by that guy's little tricks.
"I say …" Young Master Lu looked over with a smug expression.
"Now I can show you a set of punches!" Baozi excitedly jumped out.
"… …"
"I'll do it!" Tang Rou smiled and stepped forward.
"Hm?" Young Master Lu saw that it wasn't Ye Xiu coming over and was slightly surprised, standing there without moving.
"Can't I do it?" Tang Rou said.
"You're also a pro player?" Young Master Lu said.
"It's even worse than being a pro player. Right now, I'm only aiming to be a pro player." Tang Rou said.
Young Master Lu was filled with confidence after his previous performance, so this time, in front of a beauty, he showed a bit of grace. He didn't say anything else and moved to the side, gesturing for her to start.
Tang Rou nodded her head in greeting to everyone and sat down.
Her hands touched the piano keys, and in an instant, the sound of the piano soared.
Fast!
Tang Rou's playing was also very fast. However, she wasn't like Ye Xiu who blindly pursued speed. She was fast to the point that there were almost no breaks. Tang Rou was fast. She was fast to the point that there was a rhythm to her playing. Under such a fast rhythm, every note was firm and steady. This revealed her extremely deep foundation.
"Ah, it sounds familiar." Chen Guo listened to Tang Rou's song and suddenly cried out in surprise.
"Uh, this is another song I know." Ye Xiu said.
Beethoven's "Pathetique" Sonata, third movement.
"I didn't think I'd heard of it before." Chen Guo was surprised.
"Actually, there are many famous songs that everyone is familiar with. It's just that you don't know the names." Ye Xiu said.
"So you're saying that the song you're playing isn't a famous song!" Chen Guo said.
"Maybe if someone else plays it, you'll find it familiar …" Ye Xiu said.
"Little Tang plays better than that guy!" Chen Guo said.
"Won't you know from everyone's reaction?" Ye Xiu laughed.
Ye Xiu's playing had shocked everyone. No one had thought that playing could be this fast. As for Young Master Lu's playing, everyone had expressed admiration. Young Master Lu's rendition of that serenade was indeed quite good. And now, Tang Rou's playing had caused everyone to express both shock and admiration. This was unexpectedly good.
As for Young Master Lu, the expression on his face was even more interesting. Although he was also shocked by Ye Xiu's performance, he did not feel awkward. Because he knew that even if he could play like that, it would be a joke. Who played like that? But now, Tang Rou's performance made him feel helpless. When it came to music, the difference between the two could be clearly seen, and the difference between the two sides was probably not just an ordinary kind of big. It was not that Young Master Lu thought too highly of himself. To make him feel so helpless, it had to be at a very professional level.
As the last note ended, the crowd applauded. Tang Rou also bowed to everyone to express her gratitude, then looked at Young Master Lu with a smile.
"With such piano skills, you want to be a professional player. I feel sad for you." Young Master Lu said.
"Then I've really troubled you." Tang Rou said.
"Can you face your family with this kind of choice?" Young Master Lu said.
"I've also troubled you with his family." A voice came from the main entrance of the party. Everyone turned to look. When they saw who it was, many people's expressions changed. Clearly, there were many people who could recognize this person. And in this party, to be recognized by the majority of people, he was obviously not a simple person. Even Young Master Lu's expression changed when he turned to look at the person who came to escort him. His face was full of disbelief.
This person came in with a wine glass. Obviously, he wasn't at Lou Guanning's party. At this time, he walked towards the piano. People along the way subconsciously moved aside to make a path for him.
"From the sound of the piano, I knew it was you." The person walked straight to the piano, but didn't even look at Young Master Lu. He directly spoke to Tang Rou.
"Hehe." Tang Rou didn't say anything. She just smiled mischievously.
"Why are you here?" The person asked.
"I came with a friend." Tang Rou said.
"Oh?" The person followed Tang Rou to Ye Xiu's small circle.
"My dad." Tang Rou introduced.
Ye Xiu and the others looked at each other. As for Tang Rou, they all felt that she definitely wasn't simple. Ye Xiu even suspected that she might have run away from home like him. But looking at the scene of the father and daughter meeting now, wasn't it too normal? If she said she ran away from home, they wouldn't believe it even if they were beaten to death!
"These three are your friends right now?" Father Tang looked at Ye Xiu and the others and smiled.
"Yes! Ye Xiu, Chen Guo, Baozi. "Tang Rou introduced them one by one.
"It's Bao Rongxing. Hello, Uncle." Baozi's reaction was more positive.
"Hello." Father Tang greeted them all and then casually chatted for a while. He said nothing more than ordinary things like thank you for taking care of them. As for the other guests, they were all lined up to get closer. Clearly, they were all trying to take this opportunity to come up and chat a little. But Father Tang only exchanged a few words with Ye Xiu and the others. He raised his glass to everyone and then pulled Tang Rou to the side to talk.
Ye Xiu and the others still didn't know Father Tang's exact identity, but from the looks of it, there was an 80% chance that they would be able to find him if they searched for someone with the surname Tang. Tang Rou's identity was definitely that of a rich family's eldest daughter.
"Hidden depths, hidden depths." Chen Guo sighed.
"Hey, you, it's not over yet. Don't run!" At this time, Lou Guanning suddenly jumped out. Everyone looked and saw that Young Master Lu was about to run away!
"You guy, you've watched enough and now you're excited?" Chen Guo said.
"I almost forgot that this was my banquet!" Lou Guanning said.
