Being praised, Mo Weiyi was naturally quite delighted. She held onto Xiao Yebai’s arm, her laughter was charming and unrestrained.
“Ah.” Qu Yunyao sighed, “I do envy those who are musically gifted. Uncle, do I lack talent in that area?”
“How could you be?” Mo Yaoxiong could only comfort her.
“But no matter how hard I try, I can’t play the piano well. My mom is a violinist, and I soon have my music exam, but recently there was no ti to find soone to guide .”
“Isn’t your brother-in-law here?” Mo Yaoxiong looked at his son-in-law, “Yebai, could you provide so guidance to Yunyao?”
Qu Yunyao’s face imdiately brightened, “Really? Brother-in-law, can you guide ?”
All eyes were now focused on Xiao Yebai.
He raised his eyelids, his voice steady and bland: “I haven’t played in a while, I can’t instruct.”
Qu Yunyao’s expression fell as she let out a disappointed “ah”.
Mo Yaoxiong quickly reassured, “Yebai, go and give Yunyao so guidance. The piano room is cleaned by the servants every day, it’s quite convenient.”
Qu Yunyao put her hands together in a prayer-like gesture, her eyebrows furrowing as she pleaded softly, “Brother-in-law, please, please.”
Seeing that Xiao Yebai was expressionless, Qu Yunyao turned to Mo Weiyi, “Weiyi Sis, please, can you ask Brother-in-law to help out? I’m really afraid I won’t pass the exam, I have already taken it twice.”
Her tone was soft, she really acted like an innocent little girl.
Mo Weiyi said, “It’s already nine o’clock.”
Asking her husband to tutor her at this ti was a bit of a stretch. This girl was really inconsiderate!
“Just half an hour, please Weiyi Sis,” Qu Yunyao begged.
Mo Weiyi held onto Xiao Yebai’s arm, her face showing her displeasure.
And so…
“Weiyi, how can you be so thoughtless?” Mo Yaoxiong furrowed his brows. “Yunyao is about to take her music exam soon. It’s not too much to just let Yebai guide her a little, it’s not a bother.”
This daughter of his was spoiled. At twenty years old, she still acted like a child, selfish and inconsiderate of the feelings of others.
Mo Weiyi glanced at her father, and finally, pouted, “Xiaobai, then you can give her so guidance.”
“Thank you, Weiyi Sis, you’re the best!” Qu Yunyao smiled sweetly.
Xu Jing also laughed, “It is a bit late though, Yunyao, rember not to disturb your brother-in-law too much, okay?”
“I know, just half an hour, I promise!”
Mo Weiyi looked at her, smiling outwardly, while inwardly cursing her.
Due to the pressing situation, she had to let go of Xiao Yebai’s arm, allowing him to rise. Under the guidance of a servant, a man and woman headed towards the piano room in the back.
**
The piano room was very clean, and its arrangent was cozy. In addition to the piano, there were all sorts of violins; all were works of famous craftsn.
Qu Yunyao knew that this used to be her aunt’s piano room.
The won of the Xu Family all had high musical talent. Madam Xu was once a famous violinist in the country, and both daughters have made their own advancents in the music field, except for Mo Weiyi.
She rembered that once, when she was young and visited the Mo Family, she saw Mo Weiyi in a red princess dress, sitting nobly, practising on the piano. But she couldn’t play a simple “Ode to Joy” properly and was scolded by her aunt repeatedly…
At that mont, she couldn’t help but let out a laughter due to Weiyi’s predicant, and was subsequently scolded harshly by Xu Jing.
Well, born with such beauty and privilege, but ended up as an ignorant beauty, it seems that God was quite fair after all.
“Young Mistress, please use this piano.” The servant’s voice rang out.
“Alright.” Qu Yunyao walked over, lifted her hem, and elegantly sat in front of the piano.
She glanced at the man seated on the sofa, and smiled at the corners of her lips. Then she placed her delicate hands onto the black and white keys of the piano.
Soon, a series of notes began to flow from her fingertips.
She played earnestly until the piece ended.
Turning around, Qu Yunyao looked at the cultivated and indifferent man on the sofa, her tone soft, “Brother-in-law, how did I do?”
Xiao Yebai had his head bowed, looking at his phone.
His eyes were shielded by his glasses, masking his expression. He had no reaction upon hearing her words.
“Brother-in-law?” Qu Yunyao raised her voice.
Xiao Yebai lifted his head.
Then.
“Play it again.”
“…” Qu Yunyao was stunned for a mont, then nodded, “Alright.”
She turned around and once again played the piece from beginning to end.
After finishing the piece, she turned again, and found that Xiao Yebai was still in the sa position as before.
“Brother-in-law?”
Just as she had anticipated, there was no reaction again.
Qu Yunyao lifted the hem of her dress, rose from the chair, and slowly walked toward the sofa.
The thick carpet absorbed the sounds of her high heels.
Upon reaching the sofa, she stood there, quietly observing the handso man before her.
Unlike most n, Xiao Yebai had very fair skin, which gave him an additional sense of elegance and aloofness.
The hand he held his phone with was slender, its joints clear and defined; it was no doubt a good hand for playing the piano.
His face was also clean and fair, even more exquisite upon closer inspection than that of a woman’s skin.
Qu Yunyao slowly raised her hand and reached out towards his face.
Just as she was about to touch him, Xiao Yebai rapidly leaned back.
“I thought you were asleep.” Qu Yunyao pulled back her hand, her heart racing, yet a sweet and pure smile hung on her face, “Brother-in-law, were you listening to play just now?”
Xiao Yebai put down his phone, his voice was indifferent and aloof, “The piano sound was too frivolous, I couldn’t bear to listen..”
