Shen Yue had always loved these things that could make her seem out of this world. Because Chen Rou Qiu was originally good at playing the zither, not only did she know how to play it, she also knew how to compose some songs and write some lyrics. Shen Yue had learned this skill very well. Every year she would be able to get first rank, thus every year here, it was the time for everyone to appreciate her zither skills.
In the female group, once Shen Yue was there, the others would not choose the 'zither' category to seek their own humiliation. Shen Qing naturally put in effort and in the 'chess' category, she got first rank.
After going around and around to the 'zither' category, the audience started to discuss again.
Shen Yue walked up the stage and burned incense and bathed her hands. She was born with a delicate and graceful air, and her soft, pink robe was extremely moving. But with a shallow smile on her lips, she really had the appearance of a little fairy.
She was playing 'Chant to the Moon'.
'Chant to the Moon' was an extremely difficult song and it was about a wanderer far away who missed his homeland and loved ones. The beginning was gentle and melancholy, followed by intense sorrow and at the end it made one sigh. The transition from start to finish was a test of zither skills and it was emotional.
In the previous lifetime, Shen Yue was also in the limelight of this song and was unparalleled for a while. In comparison, she was even more unbearable. Now thinking about it, it seemed that every time Shen Yue's good reputation was to step on Shen Miao's embarrassment to climb up.
Shen Miao looked at the young female on the stage.
Shen Yue had already started. When she plucked the zither strings, it was as if the zither strings had spirituality as it spread softly in her hands. The song was ethereal and had a charm that drifted into everyone's ears. Her fingers flew on the zither strings like a butterfly shuttling through a sea of flowers. Every turn was coordinated and natural.
Feng An Ning bit her lips. Even if she did not like Shen Yue, she had to admit that Shen Yue's zither skills were outstanding. In comparison, the song that she got 'first rank' just now was really clumsy.
That was a song of longing for one's loved ones and homeland but it made Shen Miao's fists gradually clench.
Even if one were to relive a lifetime, the dead could not be resurrected. Wan Yu and Fu Ming would not appear again. This song of Shen Yue's was like a death knell of vengeance and resentment. In the ears of those who heard it, not only was there no comfort, it was filled with blood hatred.
Cai Lin ran out of the banquet. He tried his best to get closer to the stage so that he could see every expression of his sweetheart. He was intoxicated by the beautiful sound of the zither, but was suddenly interrupted by the sound of someone talking.
"The Second Young Lady is really unlucky. She has never been the second place, but the Fifth Young Lady took the first place." The one who spoke was a slender maid and Cai Lin recognised that she was Shen Yue's personal maid, Shu Xiang, and involuntarily looked over.
"That's right. Moreover, the Fifth Young Lady doesn't even choose. She is deliberately going against the Second Young Lady." Another maid said.
"Alas, it's a pity that our Second Young Lady has a kind heart and has been bullied by Fifth Young Lady in private. Didn't the Fifth Young Lady dare to treat the Second Young Lady like this because of the First Master? Second Young Lady is so pitiful. She had prepared for so long, but the fruit was snatched away by someone else. "
"It would be great if someone could help the Second Young Lady vent her anger. For example … let the Fifth Young Lady go on stage during the 'selection'?"
"What nonsense are you talking about." Shu Xiang interrupted her words, "Everyone knows that the Fifth Young Lady is not proficient in the zither, chess, calligraphy and painting. Picking the Fifth Young Lady, isn't it lowering one's own status? I think it is impossible for the female group. If the male group were to pick her, that would be helping the Fifth Young Lady to vent her anger. "
The voices of the conversation gradually became softer. Cai Lin's eyes moved as he looked at Shen Yue on the stage and had an idea in his heart.
