Chapter 610: 610, Boss Huo crazily shows off his love!
She walked forward immediately, lifting her hands, wearing a guise of goodwill, adjusting the way Su Wanwan held the violin, “Sis-in-law, what piece would you like to perform?”
After some thought, Su Wanwan said, “Little Luck, can you play that?”
Tian Fuzhen’s “Little Luck”?
A pop song?
Ming Hailan sneered inside but nodded directly, “Sure.”
The one making a fool of herself won’t be me, so I’ll be generous and grant your wish.
She walked back to the piano and took a seat, while Su Wanwan had begun tuning.
Again, an ear-splitting, harsh noise resonated.
It sounded like a crow crowing, cawing repeatedly…
Xing Siqing couldn’t help it; a snort of laughter slipped out.
Laughter broke out from all corners of the audience.
The old lady from the Ming Family scowled, what on earth was happening?
Ming Hailan on the stage held her laughter, her face twitching severely.
Oh, my god!
Such public humiliation and embarrassment!
She obviously can’t play the violin, yet she wants to keep her pride intact by enduring all the shame!
This is weirdly amusing!
Ming Haijuan sat next to the old lady from Ming family, her red lips hooked in a faint smile, tinged with contempt and exasperation.
As expected.
Who is a true high society young lady?
And who’s only pretending to be a phoenix after marrying into a rich family?
One trial and you’ll know.
…
“Alright.”
On the stage, it seemed like Su Wanwan had finally tuned her violin. She turned her head and nodded at Ming Hailan.
Ming Hailan also reciprocated with a nod, placed her hands on piano keys, and began earnestly playing the prelude of “Little Luck”.
Either way, she didn’t care whether Su Wanwan could play the violin or was terrible at it, because that would only highlight how excellent her piano skills were!
Her mother had fought to get her this opportunity at the Mingli Association’s annual celebration tonight.
Everyone knew that a performing chance at this event essentially guarantees the ownership of the “Charm Goddess” title for the night.
Her goal tonight was to win that title!
Ming family daughters who are older than her have already won this title, so this year the title belonged to none other than her!
Especially now that the spotlight is on the dumb fool!
Victory was assured!
With the launch of the prelude, the banquet hall dimmed, highlighting Ming Hailan standing on the stage.
Accompanied by the beautiful and lively notes of the piano, bubbles and smoke began to emanate from the stage, the various lights flickered, adding a dreamy, romantic illusion to the event.
Nobody could deny that Ming Hailan’s piano skills were impressive. Whether it was the previous song “Sometimes, When, It, Rains,” or like “Little Luck,” a light-hearted pop song, she made it look easy, mesmerizing the audience.
Once the short prelude ended, Ming Hailan stopped playing, looked at Su Wanwan with a corner smile.
Your moment of disgrace is here!
Su Wanwan tilted her head slightly and began playing her violin.
The next moment, the smile on Ming Hailan’s face completely froze.
A beautiful violin melody echoed on the stage, soon spreading throughout the banquet hall.
“Little Luck” is the theme song of the romantic film, “Our Times,” telling the story of an ordinary girl’s first love in high school.
If you could describe the previous piano prelude as the start of a first love, then the violin performance personified the journey of that first love.
The harmonious melody was captivating, brimming with emotional detailing, and successfully painted the picture of a young girl’s first love, aligning perfectly with today’s Valentine’s Day theme.
The place suddenly quietened down, nobody spoke, all engrossed in the beautiful violin music.
Some even started to lightly sing along.
“It turns out that you are the luck I want to hold onto, it turns out that we were once so close to love. Those decisions to fight against the world for me, those rains you shared with me. Each and every scene was you, pure and untarnished sincerity. Lucky to have met you, but I have lost the right to weep for you. I hope that in the horizon unbeknownst to me, you have spread your wings, the one predestined to meet you, how lucky would she be…”
Once the final note was played, thunderous applause filled up the entire place.
Ming Hailan had to gather all her strength before she could lift her hands and clap with others.
How could this happen?
She looked at Xing Siqing who was off the stage.
Wasn’t it said that she is talentless, doesn’t know any instruments, let alone play the violin?
Where is she incapable of playing the violin?
She’s clearly very skillful!
And in a hideous sort of a way!
Off the stage, Xing Siqing was also stunned.
Su Wanwan, she had been pretending all along, hadn’t she?
She can play the violin, why would she pretend not to know even the correct posture for holding it?
Damn!
She’s such a scheming woman!
So crafty!
So inscrutable!
Bitch!
…
After the applause, the lights in the banquet hall returned to full brightness.
Under the dazzling, multi-layered crystal chandelier, Su Wanwan put down her violin, gracefully lifted her skirt, and bowed in thanks to the audience below.
Just as she was about to leave the stage, a sudden burst of applause sounded again.
Looking up, a familiar tall figure had already come to her side.
When she noticed the large bouquet of rainbow roses in the man’s arms, and even bigger one on the cart beside him…
How many flowers could that possibly be?
Su Wanwan, slightly stunned, could no longer resist, and a blush slowly rose to her cheeks.
Thinking that there were no roses, she never expected this strategic move, delivering them at this very moment.
Isn’t this just showing off their love?
Way too ostentatious, too extravagant!
But…
She loved it!
In front of everyone’s eyes, Huo Jingshen handed the large bouquet of rainbow roses he held to her.
“A total of 520 rainbow roses, do you like them, my dear?” Huo Jingshen asked, his eyes filled with laughter, his voice low and sexy, the sight of him speaking softly while holding the roses, was unutterably charming.
Su Wanwan nodded, her gaze completely captured by the large bouquet of roses.
Truth be told.
This was the first time she had received roses from a man on Valentine’s Day.
And they were 520 rainbow roses!
She had only ever seen rainbow roses on television or in novels before!
520 of them, they must be very expensive, right?
Although a little heavy, and somewhat overwhelming…cough, cough.
But at this moment, the banquet hall was so brightly lit, and so many rainbow roses were brilliantly colored under the light, dazzlingly beautiful, they were stunningly gorgeous.
Seeing that she hadn’t spoken, Huo Jingshen asked again, “My dear, do you like them?”
Su Wanwan immediately lifted her head, her smile sweet and alluring, “I love them.”
A whistle sounded in her ear, followed by applause and cheers, even someone set off confetti cannons, the atmosphere on site seemed to have exploded.
In a daze, Huo Jingshen took out an exquisite gift box.
Upon opening it, inside were a pair of couple’s diamond watches.
The two of them, under everyone’s gaze, solemnly put the watches on each other, just like exchanging wedding rings.
The matriarch of the Huo Family in the audience was already blinded by what was going on.
If she hadn’t seen this with her own eyes, she would hardly believe that it was true.
Her oldest grandson had always been very composed since he was a child, rarely spoke, was not very sociable with relatives and friends, and rarely showed any obvious emotional fluctuations.
But today, in front of so many people, he publicly gave flowers and gifts to his wife, even a loving kiss! An open display of love!
“So, this is the future wife of the oldest grandson of the Huo Family, indeed as wise as her reputation foretold, truly stunning, quite knowledgeable indeed!”
“She’s beautiful and can play an instrument, no wonder she could be the future wife of the oldest Huo grandson!”
“Such talent and beauty, a match made in heaven.”
“These 520 rainbow roses are the globally limited edition roses from roseonly!”
“Those watches are from the European brand crush, too!”
“Rich couples showing their luxury, money is really burning!”
“Shows how much they love each other!”
“Exactly, it’s Valentine’s Day, it’s natural to show off their love!”
“…”
All around, there were various gossip and envious discussions.
Huo Zhexi was sour, grumbling, “Damn, my older brother is definitely here to flaunt their love, right?”
Bai Ruwei watched the stage, her heart filled with envy and excitement.
Xing Siqing felt like throwing up.
Her older brother was definitely doing this on purpose!
Or maybe these two had arranged this in advance!
Just after playing the violin, he went up to give flowers and gifts, especially the rainbow roses, and there were 520 at that!
Not presenting them earlier, not presenting them later, but at that particular moment, clearly, he just wanted to steal the spotlight!
She initially wanted to see Su Wanwan make a fool of herself, she didn’t expect that it would even overshadow Ming Hailan.
Now everyone’s attention was on Huo Jingshen and Su Wanwan, who still remembers that a moment ago, Ming Hailan had just played “Sometimes, When, It, Rains?”
