The banquet was still going on.
The Miss Dong found it hard to refuse people's suggestions.
She sat behind the gauze curtain and said with a faint smile, "Since everyone has requested it, then this little girl will once again throw out a brick to attract jade. I will play the song 'Lost Road' for everyone. If there is anything wrong with it, please advise me!"
After saying that, a maid had prepared a Chinese zither for her. The strings of the zither were gold and silver, and the wood was made of an extraordinary ancient wood. Obviously, it was a precious item.
Behind the gauze curtain, the onlookers could see clearly that the Miss Dong raised her arm and plucked the strings of the zither lightly.
Zeng, zeng …
Instantly, a light and melodious sound of the Chinese zither resounded in the entire building.
All the onlookers held their breath and listened attentively, as if they had been dragged into a strange atmosphere.
The zither continued to play. Although there was no accompaniment, the sound seemed to be telling a story, or even the story of the Miss Dong herself.
There was a kind of loneliness, expectation, and even a kind of depressing helplessness in her music.
One of Xu Que's identities was that he was a Four-Star Musician. Even though he didn't know how to play music, he could still tell that this missy of the Dong Family was pursuing a new life when she played the zither.
She was like a person who had stayed in the darkness for a long time, longing for a beam of sunshine to shine into her life, break the darkness, and bring new changes to her life.
To be honest, this was a minor problem of a Miss Dong, who had lived a carefree life since she was a child. Generally speaking, she would be cured after a beating!
However, this was not the right time to beat her. Therefore, Xu Que had to choose another method.
"To deal with the daughter of the Dong Family, it seems like we have to start with loneliness and coldness!" Xu Que smiled inwardly. Now that he had figured out the Miss Dong's inner voice, he knew what she wanted, which would help him to act tough.
Of course, there were many people in the building who knew music, and Xu Que was not the only one who had figured out something in the music. Some of them, whose music was better than Xu Que's, had figured out something more.
After a while, when the zither finished playing, the pavilion was silent. Some people had shocked expressions, as if they were still immersed in the zither music, while others had smiles on their faces, full of confidence.
"Miss Dong, you are really good at music. Such a touching song has touched our hearts. You are really the most talented woman in the First Realm City! I really admire you! "A young man stood up and bowed respectfully.
The onlookers also nodded their heads in agreement.
"Right! After listening to this song, I forgot the passage of time!"
"Miss Dong, to tell you the truth, I underestimated you before. I'd like to apologize to you with tea in place of wine!" After saying that, someone raised his head and drank a cup of tea.
Xu Que, who was sitting at the side, was about to open his mouth to praise him. But when he saw that everyone was praising him, he couldn't help but hesitate. Then he shook his head with a look of disdain.
Although the onlookers didn't pay attention to him, their eyes were filled with disgust and annoyance.
Behind the gauze curtain, there was also a startled gaze that glanced at Xu Que intentionally or unintentionally.
Xu Que shook his head even more vigorously as if he really disliked this music.
Why?
Are you kidding me? You have finished complimenting me. Why should I follow them? Moreover, the Act-Tough Saint has chosen an unusual path. How could I be the same as you sluts?
"You are flattering me. I hope you can forgive me for my poor performance just now!" Miss Dong, who was behind the gauze curtain, said in a low voice at this time.
She still ignored Xu Que and didn't ask or mention him.
The onlookers also ignored Xu Que and continued to compliment Miss Dong.
Xu Que couldn't stand it anymore. He was not used to this kind of occasion, which was full of flatterers. However, Miss Dong liked to be modest. Once she was modest, those people would flatter her more crazily, which was extremely hypocritical!
"Guys, since I have made a fool of myself, it's your turn now!" Miss Dong said again at this time.
Xu Que wanted to stand up immediately. However, he didn't expect he would be one step too late.
A man in a blue robe, who had been ready for a long time, plucked the zither on the table in front of him. The first sound of the zither attracted everyone's attention.
The man in the blue robe said with a faint smile, "Guys, I have composed a new song recently. Today, I will show it to you for the first time. Please forgive me!"
Gasp!
Instantly, many onlookers couldn't help but gasp.
Several young people sitting beside Xu Que also started to discuss in a low voice.
"My God! Luzhou he has composed a new song again?"
"He is the best musician in our city! Even many old weirdos in the field of music praise him and even feel ashamed of their inferiority!"
"However, according to the time, Lord Lu should have composed a new song indeed. I heard that the last time he composed a song was five years ago. During these five years, he has not only made great progress, but also composed a new song!"
"This time, we have to listen carefully. I guess it will be another song that will amaze the whole city."
As they said this, they all looked forward to it.
Xu Que was also a bit surprised, and his face became a bit serious.
The reason why he was so confident in himself was that he could collect countless classical songs on Earth in his System.
However, after hearing those people's discussion and considering the high-quality song that Miss Dong had just composed, Xu Que had to take it seriously.
After all, every place had its own culture. If Luzhou he was really a genius in music and could compose a song as good as any song on Earth, he would be under a lot of pressure.
Zeng, zeng …
As Lu Zhouhe's fingers stroked the zither, a clear and melodious sound of the zither reverberated in the building.
Xu Que's heart turned cold at the first sound of her voice.
He was almost sure that if this song was played on Earth, it would be popular all over the world.
Because the sound of the zither was completely based on the heart, and it contained a clear and profound artistic conception, which contained a lot of feelings.
For example, the feelings about life and everything in the world, which made people feel as if they were standing on top of a high mountain.
To put it simply, this was definitely a magnificent piece of music. It was very extraordinary.
The rest of the people in the pavilion all showed expressions of surprise and admiration.
Through the gauze curtain, Xu Que also saw Miss Dong's expression, which was full of appreciation and admiration. However, deep in her eyes, there was a kind of indifference.
To be exact, it seemed to be a kind of disappointment.
"What?" Xu Que couldn't help but be surprised.
This is not scientific!
Logically speaking, Luzhou he's musical attainments were far above Miss Dong's.
Moreover, this song was so brilliant that it was much more sophisticated than Miss Dong's "Lost" just now. How could she still feel this kind of disappointment from the bottom of her heart after listening to it?
If a comparison had to be made, Luzhou he's song was comparable to the classical and elegant music on Earth. It had a lot of layers and artistic conception, and was very high-end.
Miss Dong's "Lost", on the other hand, was a little bit like the pop music on Earth, which was more approachable and suitable for the masses.
But with her status, shouldn't she appreciate the kind of high-end music like Luzhou he's?
Could it be that this type of song was not what she wanted?
Xu Que couldn't help but frown. Originally, he wanted to wait for Luzhou he to finish playing, and then he would play a song by Beethoven himself.
But at this moment, he had to stop. He shook his head habitually and was lost in thought.
Since she didn't want this kind of high-end and elegant music and pop music, what does Miss Dong want?
Or should I try "The Hottest Ethnic Trend" first?
If it doesn't work, "Eight Kills in a Row"?
What if it still doesn't work?
Do I have to use a big move and release my Act-Tough Saint's "Drunk Alone"?
Alas! How depressing!
