Chapter 942: Chapter 942: Awkward Little Princess
Xia Weibao shrugged, “I got lost and saw soone coming in, so I asked for directions.”
As she spoke, she glanced at the ancient zither placed in front of her.
It was a famous instrunt and looked nice, but still miles away from the Solitary Zither.
Her gaze fell on the cell phone in front of her, where a video was playing—the footage of her playing “Ambush from Ten Sides” in a music store back then.
She pressed the pause button, her hand frozen in a finger technique.
Next to it was a notebook, which recorded all her finger techniques.
Yan Yuexian felt embarrassed about being caught eavesdropping.
But her pride couldn’t be defeated, and she would never allow herself to show an embarrassed face.
So she bristled, “What are you looking at, never seen soone practicing music before?”
Then she smacked the phone, flipping it screen down, and closed the notebook.
Wearing an intimidating face that said she was tough and not to be ssed with, yet her ears were turning red.
“Pfft…”
Xia Weibao couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.
How can soone be so… adorable?
Saying one thing but aning another, isn’t it kind of cute?
Like a little beast baring its fangs and claws, but without any real harm.
Adorably fierce.
Knowing that Yan Yuexian couldn’t bring herself to back down, Xia Weibao eased off, not making it too awkward for her.
“Do you want to learn the Fuxi Finger Technique?”
“Peh! Not interested at all!”
Yan Yuexian said, full of disdain.
Xia Weibao glanced at her phone and notebook with a half-smile, “Then what are these for?”
Yan Yuexian blushed and stuck to her pride, pretending to be indifferent, “I was bored and just killing ti.”
Xia Weibao looked at the ti; it was already eleven o’clock.
Hmm, it’s indeed quite boring to co out and practice music at eleven at night in the middle of winter.
With this teasing expression, Yan Yuexian could barely maintain her composure.
Her ears were burning red, but she still refused to back down.
“So what if I want to learn, it’s not like you own the Fuxi Finger Technique, you didn’t invent it or patent it, why can’t I learn it.”
Xia Weibao crossed her arms, one hand on her chin.
Hmm, she didn’t invent the Fuxi Finger Technique, but she had perfected it after studying ancient books a thousand years ago.
It’s fair to say that the Fuxi Finger Technique only beca truly complete through her efforts.
She initially planned to teach it to her daughter, but the Dog Emperor had her put to death, causing it to be lost to history.
So claiming it as hers isn’t wrong.
After all, except for her, no one else can play it completely.
Her Majesty the Empress liked to tease beauties, and Yan Yuexian was such a delicate and adorable one, she couldn’t resist any longer.
So she grinned mischievously, “Why so fierce with such a cute face?”
Yan Yuexian’s face turned red, “None of your damn business!”
“Be ladylike, act civilized.”
“I’m coarse like this, none of your damn business!”
“Of course it’s my business, I was thinking of teaching you to play, but I like ladies.”
“Ha! You liking ladies has nothing to do with … Wait, what did you say?! You would teach ?!”
Yan Yuexian was about to say it was none of her damn business when she suddenly realized, her eyes widened!
The overflowing joy almost made her jump up.
But thinking of the grievances between them, she felt it would be deaning to rush up with eagerness.
“If you’re a bit more ladylike, maybe I could consider teaching you,” said Her Majesty.
Yan Yuexian’s heart was pounding; she desperately wanted to learn the Fuxi Finger Technique.
But Xia Weibao was her cousin’s enemy, and her cousin’s enemy was her enemy too. She couldn’t show any goodwill toward Xia Weibao.
