Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhuo Buqun felt awkward. Who knew why this waiter chose to explain at this time? He probably thought Chu Qing was beautiful. In any case, Zhuo Buqun had lost all his face. Fortunately, with his lackeys around, he finally persuaded Zhuo Buqun.
The group of people chattered as they rushed into the Western restaurant. Fortunately, the waiters in this restaurant were smart enough to arrange everything in an orderly manner. This was because everyone had just eaten. It was already past ten in the evening and it was getting late.
Therefore, there were not many people in the Western restaurant. Even the waiter was prepared to pack up and close the restaurant. However, it was not easy to chase away the guests, so he could only brace himself and entertain them. Otherwise, if they were really determined to close the restaurant, Chu Qing could only bring everyone to the bar.
He ordered several renowned desserts, but it seemed that everyone’s attention was not on the food. Rather, they were more inclined towards drinking. This realization made Chu Qing exclaim in disappointment. If he had known earlier, he would have taken them to a bar instead.
Fortunately, the red wine in this Western restaurant was not bad and everyone drank to their heart’s content. Besides Zhuo Buqun, he had a black face the entire time. Those who did not know would think that he had facial paralysis.
It was not until Zhuo Buqun discovered the shining piano in the middle of the Western restaurant that his eyes lit up. He called his group of lackeys together and said something.
After the discussion, they went their separate ways. Chu Qing, who was having drinks with Tang Ziyan, observed everything silently. He wasn’t afraid of Zhuo Buqun causing trouble. Rather, he was afraid that Zhuo Buqun wouldn’t cause any trouble at all.
Otherwise, how could he be stepped on? Chu Qing was a reasonable person. He couldn’t take the initiative to provoke others. Even if he didn’t like that person, he would at most be reasonable.
However, not everyone liked to listen to reason. At least until now, Chu Qing had not met many people who were willing to listen to him. Therefore, in the end, it was often others who were unreasonable first.
In this scenario, Chu Qing wouldn’t have to restrain himself and be reasonable. In fact, he found some satisfaction in throwing punches as well. As a result, Chu Qing sometimes felt conflicted, unable to determine whether he preferred to be reasonable or if he enjoyed throwing punches more.
It sounded a little confusing. While Chu Qing was in a daze, Zhuo Buqun’s lackey completed the task he had assigned. At this moment, Zhuo Buqun, who had changed into a different outfit, walked to the piano with pretentious steps.
He extended his hand and glided it across the black and white piano keys, producing enchanting melodies that captivated everyone’s attention. As the hall fell into silence, Zhuo Buqun took a bow. At that moment, he had changed into a specially-designed tuxedo for playing the piano, which exuded remarkable elegance and sophistication.
“I’m not talented. I’ve learned to play the piano for half a year and have barely passed level six. Coincidentally, the musician in the restaurant is not around today. I’m willing to play a song for entertainment. Here, I solemnly invite Lin Xiaowan. I wonder if you’re willing to dance with me.” After saying that, Zhuo Buqun bowed again.
Fine, I’ll let him be.
Chu Qing thought to himself as he sipped his wine. However, he had no intention of undermining him. There was no need for that. After all, Zhuo Buqun hadn’t provoked him this time. The provocative gaze that Chu Qing had often encountered in the past was absent this time.
Just like that, Lin Xiaowan was pushed to the front of the crowd by Zhuo Buqun. Initially, she was preparing to debut. She had great attainments in music and had learned dancing before.
Without any hesitation, she stepped onto the stage, gracefully lifting the hem of her dress. Bowing to the audience, she spoke, “If it’s alright with everyone, I’d like to dedicate this dance to my dearest friend and childhood companion.” Lin Xiaowan did not point out who that person was, but her gaze had already told everyone that that person was Chu Qing.
In his anger, Zhuo Buqun struck the piano keys with a series of discordant notes. He was flustered for a while. Fortunately, everyone wasn’t focused on him.
Zhuo Buqun’s piano performance was actually quite impressive. He had not lied about his skills, as he was at level six. The melodious sound of the piano emanated from his fingertips, blending harmoniously with Lin Xiaowan’s dance, captivating the attention of everyone in the room.
The coordination between them was flawless and impeccable. Upon witnessing it, Chu Qing secretly gave Zhuo Buqun a thumbs-up, setting aside their personal grievances. Regardless of their personal conflicts, Zhuo Buqun proved himself deserving of the praise.
Seeing that Lin Xiaowan was dancing, Tang Ziyan touched Chu Qing’s hand with the bottom of the wine glass and asked, “Docs she look good?”
Chu Qing turned around and looked at Tang Ziyan with a faint smile. He teased, “Beauty Tang, why do you sound like you’re jealous?”
Tang Ziyan’s lips twitched. She did not answer directly and only said, “Why are you looking at me? She danced especially for you. Don’t let her down.”
Tang Ziyan emphasized the word ‘especially’. Chu Qing was speechless. Was this necessary? Lin Xiaowan did not see Chu Qing and Tang Ziyan whispering to each other. Instead, Zhuo Buqun, who was playing the piano, saw them all.
Initially, he was in a foul mood when Lin Xiaowan made that comment. He chose to endure it and remained silent. However, at this moment, he couldn’t endure it any longer.
The girl he loved was dancing for someone else. Yet, that man did not know how to cherish her. Most importantly, it was Chu Qing. The more Zhuo Buqun thought about it, the angrier he became..
