706: Chapter 706: When I Win, It’s Never Enough_1 706: Chapter 706: When I Win, It’s Never Enough_1 The entire hall was silent, with everyone fixated on Bai Xiaosheng playing the piano as if under a spell.
It’s said that a man is at his most handso when focusing intently on doing sothing.
Bai Xiaosheng, who was already good-looking and imrsed in concentration, was playing a tune that could be described as the sound of Heaven’s lody.
At this mont, he was simply explosively handso!
Many won almost had stars in their eyes.
How could a man be so handso!
Chen Jiutian, Chen Jiuzheng, Chen Changluo, Song Yanran, Zheng Qinghong, Mu Beichen, and also Chen Changqing in the corner, all had the sa expression—no expression!
Too shocked, they were no different from others around them, not even having ti to react otherwise.
Just then, the lody abruptly stopped.
Under everyone’s gaze, Bai Xiaosheng flexed his fingers, stood up with a smile, “Excuse , excuse , I haven’t played in a while, I’m a bit rusty.”
Bai Xiaosheng didn’t mind bragging a bit in front of everyone.
This speed, and he’s rusty?
Many people couldn’t help moaning.
That’s just too exaggerated!
“Amazing!” Yegor suddenly exclaid excitedly.
Everyone jumped in fright.
Though nobody understood Russian, seeing the highly respected and excited piano master, they could guess what he ant.
Even the master was impressed!
Chen Changluo’s face soured, the master was impressed, and he couldn’t deny it even if he wanted to!
Yegor’s expression was electric as he invited Bai Xiaosheng to hold a concert in UE Country.
If Bai Xiaosheng agreed, he would take care of all the arrangents, ensuring that Bai Xiaosheng needn’t worry about a thing.
“Maybe in the future, there will be a chance!” Bai Xiaosheng quickly consoled the excited master.
Eventually, Yegor cald down.
Bai Xiaosheng took a deep breath and then turned to Chen Jiutian with a smile, “Thanks for your generosity, Mr.
Chen!”
Then, he looked at Chen Changluo, “Don’t forget, Brother Chen, you owe a million!”
Two minutes, two million!
Bai Xiaosheng was also very happy.
Chen Changluo’s face turned from green to white, shocked as he was, but feeling angry toward Bai Xiaosheng.
This Bai, with his ability, had shown everyone that he was truly strong, and it was himself who was ignorant.
Feeling humiliated, Chen Changluo watched Bai Xiaosheng about to leave, suddenly shouted, “Wait!
You’re better at the piano than I am, but I can play other instrunts.
I’ll bet you on those!”
It seed that Chen Changluo thought winning even one ga would suffice to regain so face.
Bai Xiaosheng imdiately laughed, “How about this, I’ll go first.
I’ll play an instrunt, and if you can surpass , then I’ll consider it my loss.
Otherwise, the usual rules, a million!”
Bai Xiaosheng said, “Do you dare?”
This ti, he took the initiative, pushing Chen Changluo into a corner.
These three words, “Do you dare,” spoken publicly, were intensely damaging to Chen Changluo.
“I’ll bet!” Chen Changluo said, “But I get to choose the instrunt!”
“Fine!” Bai Xiaosheng agreed.
“Violin!”
Bai Xiaosheng smiled, took a violin from the band, and played a piece with top-notch skill!
Chen Changluo turned pale, knowing he couldn’t compare, but he still wouldn’t concede.
“Cello!”
Bai Xiaosheng went over, played a piece, and still maintained top-notch skill!
Chen Changluo’s eyes reddened, he couldn’t believe it.
“Tuba!”
Bai Xiaosheng walked over, played a segnt, and yet again demonstrated top-notch skill!
Chen Changluo’s gaze held a hint of despair, he couldn’t best Bai in anything!
This damn fellow was a monster!
Yegor looked at Bai Xiaosheng as if light was about to shine from his eyes.
Not just Yegor, the entire audience was stunned.
“Oh my God, he can play so many instrunts!”
“Each one is masterful, unbelievable!”
“How long must he have studied to reach such a level, he’s a musical prodigy!”
“Impressive, and besides, he’s made hundreds of thousands in just a little while…
my heavens, that’s so much more profitable than running a company!”
A stir went through the crowd.
Zhao Qianze was extrely happy.
She looked at Zheng Qinghong, who was staring blankly, then at Mu Beichen, who was in disbelief.
Even Song Yanran sitting across from them was full of incredulity.
“You see?
This is Bai Xiaosheng, the one you all want to challenge!”
“He is a hundred tis better than all of you, yet he doesn’t show off or make noise, he excels with restraint and class!”
Zhao Qianze really wanted to cheer for Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng walked towards the drum set, waiting for Chen Changluo to continue the challenge.
One million each, why not make money when you have the opportunity.
Now, including what Chen Jiutian had promised, he already had five million!
Bai Xiaosheng was also very happy.
Originally, there was only a few hundred thousand in his account, and now he had a large sum added.
Thinking about it, he really should thank Chen Changluo, who wanted to humiliate him in public.
“Enough, no need to try anymore!”
The comnts from all around finally made Chen Changluo realize.
He had lost four million in just a mont!
And gave Bai Xiaosheng the chance to show off in public for free.
It was truly losing both substance and face!
“My money isn’t blown in by the wind!” Chen Changluo felt a pang of pain.
“Not betting anymore?” Bai Xiaosheng smiled and stopped his steps.
At this mont, his mood was soaring, and he actually felt a bit itchy to play.
Especially since, for once, he had the chance to show off high and mighty, then it was ti to make a good profit!
“When I win, it’s never enough,” Bai Xiaosheng muttered to himself.
If Chen Changluo wouldn’t bet, he would find soone else to gamble with.
Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze shifted, looking towards Yegor.
This foreigner, his fa is said to be quite big…
“Mr.
Yegor, how about a bet with you?” Bai Xiaosheng asked in Russian with a smile.
Yegor was imdiately stunned.
Just now, in the band, soone who understood Chinese had inford him about the bet between those two n.
Could it be that this young man wanted to bet with him as well?
“I can play all these instrunts too, but what shall we bet on?” Yegor asked with a smile.
He was also interested.
Bai Xiaosheng pointed to the band’s equipnt box and said with a laugh, “I will play a piece using that, and if Master Yegor thinks it is good enough, then please have your group perform for for free.
If not, consider it a free gift from , how about it?”
Master Yegor looked at the box and was startled.
Inside the equipnt box, there was an erhu.
“That’s a Chinese instrunt I bought yesterday.
You want to play it?” Yegor looked at the band.
The wager was no small matter; it was a bet for the whole band.
“Mr.
Yegor, bet with him.”
“Yes, we also want to hear how traditional Chinese instrunts sound in his hands, to what extent they can be played.”
“Agreed!”
The band mbers actually all agreed one after another.
“Great!” Master Yegor turned towards Bai Xiaosheng, smiled, and said, “I’ll take the bet.”
Bai Xiaosheng’s exchange with Yegor was in Russian, and so of the guests understood, and word of mouth spread quickly, imdiately making many people understand.
Bai Xiaosheng was going to bet against the UE Country’s band!
Everyone’s interest was suddenly piqued.
Bai Xiaosheng went over and picked up the erhu.
“I believe everyone has heard the erhu, thinking its tunes are either warmly wistful or desolately mournful, but in truth, it is not only so,” Bai Xiaosheng smiled.
“Just listen—”
Bai Xiaosheng said in his mind to Red Lotus, “Red Lotus, ‘Flight of the Bumblebee’ on the erhu!”
“Alright, master!” Red Lotus responded.
The erhu in Bai Xiaosheng’s hands suddenly ca to life.
The bumblebee took flight once more, this ti from the strings of the erhu, the ultra-fast movent of ten fingers was a sight to behold.
This was a true feast for both the eyes and ears.
At the end of the piece, all was silent.
“I’ll give you a free performance, my friend!” Yegor suddenly shouted.
The whole place erupted once again.
In the crowd, Song Yanran was biting her lower lip, with uncontainable anger and shock in her eyes, “No, I can’t concede like this!”
She quietly stood up and headed straight for Chen Changluo!
