"Teachers, I'll have to trouble you with this piano shop in the future. My foundation's work is quite busy, and I don't have much time to stay here. You'll have to work hard, and I won't give you a single cent less." Zhou Manchun took advantage of the fact that the piano shop had not officially opened yet to gather the five piano teachers and said politely.
"Director Zhou, don't worry."
"Yeah, with us here, you can go and busy yourself with the foundation."
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."
At A City's international airport, Xu Ningsheng had just gotten off the plane when his assistant, Lin Chih-yuan, was already there to pick him up. The airport was bustling. In the past three years, Xu Ningsheng had flown to more than 30 countries, so he was not unfamiliar with this place. Instead, he felt a sense of familiarity.
"Mr. Xu, where are we going later?" Lin Chih-yuan sat in the driver's seat and looked at Xu Ningsheng, who was still wearing his black sunglasses, and asked respectfully.
"To 'Pure Music Piano Shop'." Xu Ningsheng smiled faintly, rolled down the back window, and put one hand on the window. The hot wind blew in from outside the window, messing up his short black hair. Only then did Xu Ningsheng take off his sunglasses, letting the unruly wind blow on his face.
Lin Chih-yuan started the engine and did not say a word. He knew about all the things about Xu Ningsheng. He had been by Xu Ningsheng's side for two and a half years. Every time he was in a bad mood, he would run to the bar to drink, and he would always mutter a person's name.
Xu Ningsheng sat in the back seat and asked coldly, "Did you bring the flowers?"
"Yes, they're in the trunk."
Then, Xu Ningsheng did not speak again. He took out his phone and looked at the screensaver wallpaper on his phone. For four years, ever since he started liking Zhou Manchun, his screensaver wallpaper had never been changed. His soft fingertips caressed her smile across the screen, and Xu Ningsheng's handsome face was frowning deeply.
Many people say that true love is letting go. Letting the person you like be free and do what they like is true love. Xu Ningsheng never understood. In this life, people must hold hands with one person. Why can't the person by Zhou Manchun's side be him?
He heard that she was already married to Yu Chen, and they had a beautiful daughter. Xu Ningsheng's face turned cold, and he immediately said to Lin Chih-yuan, "Zhiyuan, check on Yu Xin."
"I've already checked. Yu Xin is their adopted daughter, not their biological daughter. Zhou Manchun has never been pregnant in the past three years."
Xu Ningsheng's cold eyes flashed a touch of gloom, and he muttered one word: adopted daughter.
At nine o 'clock in the morning, Chunle Guqin Store officially opened. A long red carpet was laid outside the store, and there were flower baskets on both sides. The guests had all arrived. Chunle Guqin Store was the largest guqin store in City A. Half a year ago, Yu Chen had already planned this event. Today, there were many people who came to support. Many CEOs of companies brought their wives and daughters, not only because of Mackie's fame, but also because of Yu Chen's relationship.
Zhou Manchun took Yu Chen's arm and walked slowly on the red carpet. She was dressed like a lady today, and her curvaceous body was wrapped in a light pink strapless dress, which made her look particularly elegant.
The two walked on the red carpet with smiles on their faces. Zhou Manchun walked up the steps and said a few words.
"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I'm very happy that you can come to the opening ceremony of Chunle Guqin Store today. Music is the most beautiful language of human beings. I've been learning piano since I was a child. Here, I'd like to thank my piano teacher, who is also my husband's mother, Ms. Anya Liu. Although she has passed away, I believe she can see our achievements today." With a smile on her face, Zhou Manchun confidently looked at the crowd of guests on the red carpet. The smile on her face was like the warm sunshine in the sky, warming people's hearts.
The crowd burst into thunderous applause.
"In order to thank everyone for coming, our teachers have prepared a small concert for everyone." Zhou Manchun said with a smile. Then, she bent down and bowed politely.
The hall of the piano shop had already been meticulously decorated. It was especially simple and comfortable. The five piano teachers walked to the stage one after another. Zhou Manchun sat on the piano stool. Some of the five piano teachers were standing, and some were sitting. Each of them held an instrument in their hands. As the piano chords were pressed, a piece of "Both Refined and Popular Appreciation" was played by the six of them with six different instruments.
The guests present were all fascinated by it. This song was thought up by Zhou Manchun this morning. The six of them rehearsed it once and cooperated seamlessly. The guests were all immersed in it, and Zhou Manchun didn't play much. After the song ended, the six of them walked down the stage in an orderly manner.
In the following time, it was time for the guests to freely visit the store. The store was very big, with a total of ten floors. Each floor had fifteen rooms, and the layout of each room was different. The first floor was mainly for learning the Chinese zither, the second floor was for piano, and the third floor was for violin …
The soundproofing of each room was super good. It used the most advanced soundproofing wood in the world. No matter how lively it was inside, the outside couldn't hear it. This also ensured that each student could practice without being disturbed by others.
Suddenly, a black Mercedes-Benz S600 stopped in front of "Chun Le Piano Store". Lin Chih-yuan jumped out first, went around to the back seat, and opened the door of the driver's seat.
Xu Ningsheng's long legs took a step, and he bent over to poke his head out. What came into view was a pair of shiny black leather shoes and a brown suit, which made his tall body look like a sculpture. His deep eyes glanced over all the scenery, and he walked in with a straight posture.
At this moment, Zhou Manchun was standing in the hall. Suddenly, she heard a commotion from the little girls beside her.
"My God, the Deputy Director of the High School Department of the Ministry of Education."
"Yes, he took office two years ago. He is definitely the youngest and most handsome Deputy Director of the Ministry of Education in City A."
With a puzzled look, Zhou Manchun slowly turned her head, but suddenly met Xu Ningsheng's infatuated eyes. Zhou Manchun's heart tightened and beat wildly.
She saw Xu Ningsheng holding a bouquet of pure lilies in his hand, exuding a unique fragrance. He smiled and walked slowly toward Zhou Manchun. The gloomy expression on his face had long been replaced by a smile. "Xiaochun, long time no see."
"Ah Sheng, long time no see."
"Lilies for you." Xu Ningsheng held the flowers in both hands and said in a very gentlemanly manner.
"Thank you." Zhou Manchun took the perfume lilies, and the smile on her face was a little embarrassed.
Zhou Manchun naturally handed the lilies to Yu Chen beside her. Yu Chen also knew Xu Ningsheng, and he knew what he thought of Zhou Manchun. He held the lilies and walked a little further.
