Chapter 168: Wasn’t It Too Soon to Be Happy?

Li Beinian’s fingers were moving significantly more slowly than Tong Yujia’s on the piano.

This song wasn’t a heavy or sad one, but it sounded grand and steady.

More people gathered around now as they watched her.

Her back upright, her fingers slender.

The skepticism had dissipated at this point.

But Li Beinian had no idea that they’d changed their impressions of her. Her fingers simply moved faster on the piano, as the song got more light-hearted and the tempo picked up in speed.

She could picture a scene in her head as she played the tune.

A dark and abandoned factory, rats scuttling around the alleys…

Her eyes being covered, as she heard quarrels and crashing sounds.

The sounds of glass bottles shattering and a woman screaming… as well as a man’s deep panting.

She had no idea what was going on around her.

‘Alright, make sure she can never speak again.’

‘Why don’t you just kill her?’

‘I asked that first, the master says… living in misery is more painful than dying.’

Li Beinian barely realized that the mood of her song had changed drastically. It was suddenly filled with a sense of threatening danger, and those listening unconsciously tensed up.

Li Xueqing grabbed Fang Zhili’s hand and whispered, “I never knew she was so good at playing the piano, Mom…”

Everyone’s eyes were on her now. Li Beinian had stolen the limelight!

Li Beinian had already outdone her in terms of her looks and charisma. Now that she’d performed her talent, Li Xueqing found it even harder to compete against her.

If word got out about how good she was at playing the piano…

Li Haoran, on the other hand, was comforted. He chuckled and said, “She’s my daughter indeed!”

Seeing Li Haoran’s excitement, Fang Zhili swallowed her dissatisfaction. “Xueqing, you’d better thank your sister later. If not for her, you’d have been terribly embarrassed today.”

Li Xueqing smiled. Unwilling as she was, she agreed to do it.

Sensing the change in the crowd’s impression of her, Mu Donglin felt a strange feeling inside him.

Smugness, pride.

He hadn’t felt this in so long. This woman… really surprised him in so many ways.

It was a while longer before Li Beinian finally opened her eyes again. Her fingers had slowed considerably.

She looked up at Tong Yujia and Lin Kerou, who were standing side by side.

Lin Kerou looked at her as if she’d been frightened.

‘It really was a good decision to make sure you’d never speak again.’

The voice rang in her head.

If not for her own experiences, Li Beinian would’ve found it hard to see the Lin Kerou in her memory as the same person as the Lin Kerou before her.

In her previous life, she’d been blinded by her false presentation of herself, just like everyone else.

But she was no longer that Li Beinian anymore.

She’d slowly take back everything that people took away from her.

She then glanced at the Li Family standing at the side. They looked relieved and happy.

Tsk, they seemed overjoyed?

But, wasn’t it too soon to be happy?

Li Beinian’s fingers slowed further. She smiled as she ended abruptly and heavily on a threatening note.

“Psht!”

“What was that!”

Someone couldn’t help but sing a sarcastic tune.

Everyone around erupted in laughter.

But Li Haoran and his family’s expressions instantly darkened.
