Everyone connected in so way to the Hao Family inevitably flourished, wielding wealth and power, making outsiders envious.
"Where's Ziyan?" Hao Tianfeng glanced back, imdiately noticing Hao Ziyang wasn't present.
The butler whispered in his ear, "Second Young Master is in a guest room, seems to be with the hotel's front desk manager."
Hao Tianfeng frowned slightly but said nothing, casting a cold glance at his second son Hao Zhenghua, implying, Look at the kind of son you raised, bound to die sooner or later because of a woman!
Hao Zhenghua blanched under his father's glare, cursed silently, this little brat, wait till the birthday banquet is over and see how I teach you a lesson, more trouble than you're worth!
Luo Chao sat on the bench, cigarette still lit in his left hand, as Hao Keren walked to the center of the podium, smiling slightly, "Uncle, I'm ready, we can start!"
Having sat down, he could only press on regardless. Luo Chao glanced at the sheet music on the piano stand and started playing with his right hand. Strangely, his cigarette wasn't discarded yet.
Luo Chao puffed on the cigarette without any intention of tossing the butt. Everyone shivered in shock, thinking, Is this guy trying to prove he's thrifty, tempting fate!
The high-difficulty sheet music is tough with two hands, let alone one, and everyone ntally noted, Boy, wait to face the Hao Family's wrath; you blatantly ignore them; playing with fire!
The piano master wore a mocking smile, but just as he chuckled, his face froze as he watched Luo Chao swiftly play with only his right hand.
The lighthearted tune, complex sheet music, watching Luo Chao's fingers fly across the piano keys with skilled fluidity, made hearts race, how fast!
Even more astonishing was Luo Chao didn't hit a wrong note, occasionally took a relaxed drag on the cigarette, causing everyone witnessing to gasp deeply as if seeing Beethoven possessed, utterly divine!
Hao Keren began spinning, jumping into a cheerful ballet, toes on the ground, twirling her charming figure on the stage. Already a natural beauty, dressed in a white gown, dancing gracefully, she was like a dazzling swan; everyone felt she'd be even more breathtaking when grown, especially with that figure, truly alluring.
Hao Tianfeng watched Luo Chao's casual five-finger play, thinking even a level 10 piano master couldn't achieve this, exceptional, truly exceptional!
Five fingers crafted the most magnificent symphony, truly astonishing!
"Honey, Keren's uncle is really quite impressive, playing such difficult sheet music with five fingers, a stroke of genius," Hao Keren's mother whispered in Hao Longhua's ear.
Hao Longhua nodded, "Yes, I truly underestimated him, this person is very unusual, seems like there's nothing he can't do."
Everyone discussed Luo Chao in admiration, with Ning Wanxi quietly observing him, as Luo Chao smoked, played piano, maintaining his rogue deanor yet carefree and untad. Ning Wanxi's beautiful eyes showed complex emotions, even she had to admire Luo Chao's 'powerful' performance.
As the tune ended, the hall erupted in enthusiastic applause, and Luo Chao finished smoking and extinguished the cigarette butt, stepping down from the podium, as Hao Tianfeng loudly called, "Luo Chao, can you co over?"
Hao Keren finished her dance, glancing around, noticing the so-called piano master had slipped away at so point, perhaps only a fool would hang around and eat the piano!
"Never let see you again!" Hao Keren humd dismissively, then looked at her uncle with sparkling eyes, five-finger play, stroke of genius, uncle, I love you so much!
Luo Chao responded, feeling a bit surprised that old man Hao knew his na, approached openly, and spoke loudly, "Old man, you called for ?"
Quiet, the entire hall fell into an eerie silence, everyone exchanging glances, big eyes eting small eyes, sensing a suffocating atmosphere.
Hao Tianfeng, once the notorious leader of Hongxing Society, was feared for his ferocity, even now in old age, his anger was boundless; no one dared defy him, yet Luo Chao called him old man to his face, was this rebellion? Today's youth are frightening, do they have any sense?
Ning Wanxi froze, wondering what filled her foolish husband's head, was it manure? Addressing Director Hao in such a manner?
"Kid, do you have a death wish?" The butler and several bodyguards behind old Hao all drew their pistols, speaking angrily.
Since Hongxing Group started in the underworld, they naturally carried firearms, but they didn't cause trouble, so Jiangning City turned a blind eye.
Luo Chao casually replied, "That's not quite right, of course, I want to live," He called both his late master and Commander Hua old man, naturally addressing any elder as such out of habitual speech, not disrespect.
Hao Tianfeng sized him up, maintaining calm under so many gun barrels without a hint of panic, quite surprising, laughed heartily, "It's fine, if he likes calling that, let him; I find it quite endearing, holster the guns."
Those present trembled, endearing? Is old Hao muddled? A shrewd figure like Hao Tianfeng couldn't be so foolish; clearly, young Luo Chao was no ordinary guy!
Hao Tianfeng continued, "No issue calling you over, just heard you're close with Keren, wanted to et you, truly a hero erges young, the Yangtze pushes waves forward!"
Luo Chao chuckled, "Fortunately, it's not followed by 'the older wave dies on the beach!'"
"Haha," Hao Tianfeng stroked his beard laughing, hadn't been this cheerful in ages, as no one ever dared speak so freely around him, except for bratty Keren, though she didn't have such a loose tongue, just a bit mischievous.
Then Luo Chao laughed, "Your Honor celebrates today, may you always be youthful, with good temper, strong teeth, hearty appetite, blooming flowers, grandsons marrying wise wives, granddaughters choosing fine husbands, expanding growth, a hundred grandsons, rich and honored, full of blessings."
Those hearing his lengthy blessing shivered, never seen such shalessness, from a young man dressed like a bodyguard who seed to have erged from nowhere, quite a live wire, Ning Wanxi felt both annoyed and amused, seeing Hao Tianfeng laughing uncontrollably, couldn't help shaking her head with a smile; her husband was born with a gift of gab, no soul in the world he couldn't charm.
