Everyone was taken aback by Lu Xingzhi’s words, then displayed subtle expressions.
These words were truly thought-provoking.
Everyone likes him, don’t they?
Shen Xinzhu likes Huo Jincheng, who in their circle doesn’t know that.
These words were truly spot on.
Both sharp and precise.
Qin Shihuai elbowed Mo Jinyan, "See, I told you, this fiancée of Jincheng, doesn’t talk much, but she’s got a knife hidden under her smile."
Whatever the others thought, Lu Xingzhi didn’t care; she just added, "Miss Shen has good taste."
Shen Xinzhu heard her words too and replied through gritted teeth, "You’re not bad either."
This was not in line with her usual elegant demeanor, she was a bit flustered.
Lu Xingzhi flashed an innocent and cute smile, her voice soft, "I don’t need to rely on taste. After all, mine is handed to me. And yours, you chose personally."
Huo Jincheng thought his little girl was simply amazing, wrapping his arm around her waist, his possessiveness evident.
"Be good, still need to choose. What if you don’t like what I bring home!"
Lu Xingzhi turned her head to look at him, "I trust your taste, your taste is good."
Helian Xi really wanted to give her third sister-in-law a thumbs up, manually applaud.
If she were Shen Xinzhu, she’d probably be furious.
"Lu Xingzhi, that’s enough." Helian Yi thought she was nothing but trouble, the kind they call a femme fatale.
Wherever she was, there surely were no good things.
Zhou Yunxiang quickly stepped in to smooth things over, "Xinzi, didn’t you say you were going to play a piece for our Qianqian today, to celebrate her coming of age? You, as the beautiful pianist, can’t break your word."
Upon hearing Zhou Yunxiang’s words, Shen Xinzhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, it was her stage. Later, she would let everyone know the difference between her and Lu Xingzhi.
She would let Lu Xingzhi know that inner quality was far more important than a pretty face.
Teach her the meaning of the word inferiority.
Shen Xinzhu displayed a graceful smile, "Of course, I won’t go back on my word. I’m so close with Qianqian; it’s not just one piece, even ten pieces would be appropriate."
Soon after, Shen Xinzhu sat at the piano, opened the piano lid, and began to play.
Lu Xingzhi propped her chin, preparing to listen carefully to what the legendary beautiful pianist’s playing was like.
After the piece, Shen Xinzhu gracefully stood up and said to Zou Qianqian, "Qianqian, this piece Voice of a Young Girl is for you. I hope you always remain as innocent and carefree as a young girl, always happy and without worries."
"Thank you, Sister Xinzi." Zou Qianqian said sweetly.
"It’s my pleasure." Shen Xinzhu felt proud internally, looked towards Lu Xingzhi, and saw her expression was odd. She intentionally said, "Is Miss Lu frowning because she thinks my playing wasn’t good?"
"Then could you comment on my playing?"
"Great technique, lacks soul." Lu Xingzhi said bluntly.
"Lu Xingzhi, if you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense. Sister Xinzhu has held concerts." Helian Yi immediately stood up.
"She was the one who asked. Since that’s the case, just pretend I didn’t say anything!" Lu Xingzhi innocently pouted her lips.
"It seems Miss Lu knows piano well; why don’t you play a piece for us?" Shen Xinzhu was about to explode with anger, barely maintaining her smile.
This Lu Xingzhi, she’s just a country bumpkin, what does she know about soul.
