Chapter 167: Melancholy

—”The Wedding Dance”

The tune was rather light, livening up the atmosphere.

The tempo of the song wasn’t too fast nor too slow, but Tong Yujia deliberately increased the pace to flaunt her skills.

Everyone could tell that she was a skilled pianist.

The onlookers were also looking toward the Li Family and wondering what Li Beinian would surprise them with.

But they saw Li Beinian just watching Tong Yujia without being the least bit anxious.

Most people were secretly mocking her. At a time like this, she still didn’t feel threatened at all?

Whether or not she was really skilled, her calmness was surprising.

Everyone applauded when the song ended.

Li Beinian whistled and was generous with her praises. “Awesome!”

Tong Yujia was smug, hearing her compliments.

“Your fingers are so quick, you must’ve practiced for a long time while single.”

Tong Yujia did not hear her properly and immediately smiled. “But of course.”

The people around started laughing. Only then did she realize she’d fallen into the trap. “You… how could you say this! Are you even a girl!’

“I should be.” Li Beinian smiled. “Otherwise, you can check it out in the washroom later.”

More and more people were looking at Li Beinian in awe and shock.

There was also no lack of judging and mocking looks.

Tong Yujia’s cheeks went red. “Shameless!”

She shouldn’t have talked to her in the first place!

Changing the topic, she said, “It’s your turn, go on!”

Li Beinian sat before the piano with a grin on her face and stroked the keys for a while.

Memories surged in her head.

The piano…

She’d married Mu Donglin for three years and learned to play the piano for three years as well.

In three years, she’d only performed before the housemaids a few times.

In order to make sure she was good enough for Mu Donglin, she put in all her effort to learn new things—things that others wouldn’t have ever expected her to.

Culinary, music, etiquette…

Something flashed in Li Beinian’s eyes as the clear tone rang out under her touch.

Seeing what Li Beinian was doing, Tong Yujia asked condescendingly, “Why, have you never seen a piano before?”

People started giggling as they awaited a good show.

Li Beinian simply smiled. “Give me a moment, I need to test the sounds. Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti…”

“Test the sounds? Just get off it!”

“Exactly, why are you still putting up a show and embarrassing yourself!”

Li Xueqing was even more anxious now. She turned towards Li Haoran. “Dad, Nian Nian is too much! She’s using me as a stake when she doesn’t even know how to play the piano!”

“Hello, please get this clear. I don’t want you. I just want the dress you’re wearing.” Tong Yujia corrected her.

Li Xueqing was fuming.

Fang Zhili clenched her teeth and nudged Li Haoran.

Li Haoran was also angry, but he comforted them. “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure to teach her a lesson when she’s done!”

Li Beinian did not bother about the commotion around her.

She played two octaves from Do to Ti before placing both hands on the piano.

She started with a long note before playing the tune.

The sounds around her got softer, and the initial mocking ceased.

“This is a really difficult piece!”

Someone shouted that out, and then everyone went quiet.
