121: Chapter 121: The Magical Sense of Sll 121: Chapter 121: The Magical Sense of Sll “Don’t you talk nonsense, Jas is also my idol,” Lin ngru said with a face full of anger, glaring discontentedly at Su Xuan.
Su Xuan bared his teeth and smirked as he looked at the blond-haired, blue-eyed Jas, raising his voice, “I really can’t see what’s so great about this blondie.”
Whoosh!
The next mont, the eyes of all the diners in “Romance in Paris” landed on Su Xuan, even the smooth piano music hesitated for a beat.
If looks could kill, Su Xuan would have died a thousand tis over.
Lin ngru squeezed out an apologetic smile to the crowd, then imdiately grabbed Su Xuan’s ear, lowered her voice, and threatened, “If you keep spouting nonsense, I’ll eat you alive.
Jas eats by his talent, look how elegant he is, unlike you, a thug.”
Hearing these words, Su Xuan felt a sourness inside him.
Although he hadn’t had anything happen with Lin ngru, it still felt wrong to see a beautiful woman, who was close to him, praise a strange man.
“What talent, he’s just a pretty pillow.
I play way better than him,” Su Xuan deliberately raised his tone this ti.
The group that was already dissatisfied with Su Xuan now couldn’t hold back and began to verbally attack him.
“Where did this asshole spring from?
Does he even know a thing about pianos?
Just blabbering nonsense here.”
“Exactly, look at his tattered clothes, he’s definitely just jealous of Jas.
We should simply ignore such people.”
“Right, right, he is the type who moves bricks for two months just to co here and pose once.
I find such n the most disgusting.”
…
What started as mockery of Su Xuan’s presumption soon turned into personal attacks.
Although she was initially defending her idol, Lin ngru’s small face turned even more sour as she heard these words and retorted, “What do you think you’re doing?
Even if Su Xuan can’t play the piano, that’s no reason for personal attacks.”
Deep down, Jas’s importance in Lin ngru’s heart was incomparable with Su Xuan.
The only reason she had said those things was because she enjoyed opposing Su Xuan.
“We’re not wrong though, you choosing such an unqualified boyfriend and making a scene here shows your lack of upbringing,” a woman with a decent appearance but a slightly an look said disdainfully to Lin ngru.
“Yes, a high-end restaurant like this is not ant for people like you.
Since you don’t appreciate it, better leave quickly,” a girl at the an woman’s neighboring table chid in, looking like she knew the an woman.
Just as Lin ngru was about to retort, Su Xuan stopped her.
His gaze drifted over the an woman and the man sitting next to her, a thicker smile forming on his lips.
“Ma’am, you seem very cultured indeed, what do you call sneaking around with your best friend’s boyfriend behind your own boyfriend’s back?” Su Xuan spoke nonchalantly.
“What nonsense are you spouting?” The an woman looked panicked, stealing a glance at the man sitting next to her before forcing herself to stay calm, threatening, “Let tell you, if you continue to insult , I will sue you for defamation.”
With a swish, the man at the next table abruptly stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and glared fiercely at Su Xuan, “Buddy, you better apologize for what you’ve said, or I won’t let you off the hook.”
The remaining man and woman also looked at Su Xuan angrily, while suspiciously glancing at their own boyfriends and girlfriends.
“If you dare to do such shaful things, why would you be afraid of others knowing?” Su Xuan said calmly.
The girl next to them couldn’t take it anymore, “What is wrong with you?
Being so uncouth yourself, yet slandering my best friend and her boyfriend.”
“If I really slandered them, then I can confirm that the two of them slept together last night, and I think it happened three tis.
Also, do you really know where your boyfriend went last night?” Su Xuan said seriously.
“It’s impossible, my boyfriend was with Gao Qiang last night,” the girl pointed to the an woman’s boyfriend.
“No, uh,” the man nad Gao Qiang jumped up as if stepping on a nail, pointing at the an woman, “Lili, didn’t you say you were with Fangfang yesterday?
Where did you really go?”
At these words, both the an woman and the man who had rolled up his sleeves looked oddly guilty, as if they had been caught red-handed.
The other man and woman quickly deduced from their partners’ words that they had been lied to by their respective significant others, and instantly believed Su Xuan’s allegation.
“Great, you slut, and you, you bastard.
I thought you two were the people I loved the most, my best friend and partner, but from now on, I’m cutting ties with both of you.” Gao Qiang, shaking with rage, slapped the an woman hard across the face as he left, producing a sharp slap that echoed crisply.
“Qiang, listen to , it’s not what you think, I didn’t want to, it was all his fault,” the an woman cried, chasing after him.
A similar scene played out with the other couple, only with the genders reversed.
After these two bizarre couples had left, most people looked at Su Xuan as if he were a monster.
Among them, so quickly averted their gaze, fearing to catch Su Xuan’s attention.
It was clear that so of them were not so innocent themselves.
“Su Xuan, you’re simply incredible, how did you guess that those two had a fling?” Lin ngru was all wide-eyed and curious.
Su Xuan rolled his eyes, “I slled it, I didn’t guess it at all.”
“No way,” Lin ngru looked incredulous, “How could you possibly sll that they did that last night?”
“It’s quite simple, really.
Their scents were all over each other, too strong to miss, and present from head to toe.
Isn’t that obvious?” Su Xuan explained nonchalantly.
For elite fighters in the jungle, the sense of sll is vitally important.
In the tangled wilderness, with its complex terrain and obstructed views, where an enemy can hide anywhere, sll is often more important than sight.
“Will you guys ever cut it out?
Please don’t disturb us from listening to the piano, okay?” A girl, around eighteen or nineteen, pretty and with a refined temperant, spoke up in dissatisfaction.
Lin ngru sheepishly clamd up, but Su Xuan wore a dismissive expression, “This level of playing doesn’t even warrant listening.
I play better than him.”
The group of girls who had been irritated with Su Xuan for a while were about to start another round of verbal assault when Jas finished his piece and ca over, seething with anger, and spoke in stiff Chinese, “My friend, you’ve been belittling my piano skills all this ti.
Would you care to play sothing now?”
“Mr.
Jas, I’m truly sorry, my friend here is a little slow, I hope you won’t take it to heart,” Lin ngru quickly interjected, fearing Su Xuan would make a fool of himself.
“What’s so great about that, really.
Your piano playing is quite unimpressive.
If you want a lesson, then I’ll reluctantly play a piece for you,” Su Xuan stood up and walked straight to the piano.
His action shocked everyone.
“What on earth is he trying to do?
Look at his hands, they’re clearly made for carrying bricks, how can they play the piano?”
“I think there’s really sothing wrong with his brain, let’s not lower ourselves to his level.”
“Hey, I suggest you co down quickly and stop embarrassing yourself up there.”
…
People were all abuzz, almost wishing they could kick Su Xuan out straight away.
Even Jas hadn’t expected Su Xuan to actually dare to step up.
Seeing Su Xuan’s completely unprofessional posture and attitude, he asked coldly, “Sir, may I ask how long you’ve been studying piano?”
Su Xuan cocked his head and thought for a mont, “About three days, I guess.
It was simply too unchallenging.
I really didn’t feel like continuing.”
“Oh my God, no way.
Three days?
I bet he doesn’t even understand what a staff is.”
“I reckon he’s just here to cause trouble.
Security, get him out of here, please.”
…
Jas’s complexion turned extrely ugly, his forehead slightly creased, and he said not without pride, “I started learning piano at the age of three, and have been studying for over twenty-five years now, practicing more than twelve hours a day.
You, having studied for only three days, dare say I play poorly?
Aren’t you being a bit too arrogant?”
“It’s not that I’m arrogant, but rather that you’re too dull.
Such a low standard after more than twenty years of learning; you might as well bash your head against tofu,” Su Xuan said bluntly.
“You…” Jas trembled with rage.
Being known as a piano prodigy, when had he ever been ridiculed like this?
He sneered and mocked, “Well, since that’s the case, let’s all look forward to your superior skills.”
“Of course, no problem,” Su Xuan replied with full confidence.
Lin ngxue and Lin ngru were both nervous and at the sa ti, they couldn’t help but feel a faint sense of anticipation.
After all, in their mories, Su Xuan never seed to have made empty boasts.
However, their anticipation was imdiately dissipated by Su Xuan’s next words.
“Well, it’s been a long ti since I last played, I’ve almost forgotten.
Let try now, what notes these keys produce,” Su Xuan said as he made a statent that left everyone on the verge of a breakdown, his fingers swiftly sliding from left to right across the piano, a rhythmic lody emanating forth.
Seeing such a foolish display from Su Xuan, just as Jas was about to storm up and drag this troublemaker away from his beloved piano, Su Xuan sat down with perfect posture, transforming his aura entirely.
“Today, I’ll play for you one of the top ten ancient Huaxia pieces, ‘Ten Sides Ambush,’ to give you a proper lesson,” Su Xuan said, and after closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, he flexed his fingers.
Doubt was evident in Jas’s eyes, his taunt dripping with scorn, “Don’t boast.
‘Ten Sides Ambush’ is one of the hardest ancient pieces to play.
Trying to play it on the piano will only make it clumsier.”
