Every note was perfect. Even more so, it was clear that some notes had been made to seem more beautiful and romantic.
He was like the King of Cyprus in the legend.
Lonely and longing for love!
Since she left the castle, she had barely touched the piano for all these years due to her busy life. When Tong Hua learned the piano, she would accompany him every time and reminisce about the days in Paris.
Other than that one nightmarish night, those days were happy and joyful.
Although Ye Ling always made things difficult for her, those memories were still all sweet.
The lights in the hall were made dimmer, and a white spotlight shone on Ye Ling. The strong lighting made him seem even more beautiful. He was like a piece of art. He played the graceful tune that floated around every corner of the hall. The lights shone on his amber eyes, and they shone brightly like a star.
That starlight landed on Shen Qianshu.
From then, the people were all blending into the background. In her eyes, there was only him.
His well-refined hands jumped around the familiar and romantic notes. It was as if she was drugged. She was enchanted by him.
White shirt, black piano. He was like the Prince Charming of her dreams who braced through a snowstorm to find her. She wished she had wings so she could fly beside him. A soft voice told her, You are his missing piece.
The Bible says that a woman was made of a rib that God took from a man. Therefore, in the vast sea of people, there was always a woman who was the rib of a man. Only when this rib was found would life become complete.
Eve was Adam’s rib.
She was Ye Ling’s rib!
After the song had ended and the last note had fallen, it was as if someone had put a pause button in the hall. About five seconds later, the room exploded in thunderous applause. Ye Ling’s piano playing had reached a new peak. It was literally music to everyone’s ears. It was really enjoyable.
Ye Ling’s gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Shen Qianshu. “This is the tune that I always listened to when I was troubled and lost. I have to thank the person who played this for me back then, who gave me light during my darkest moments.”
Ye Ling stood up slowly and reached out his arm. “Qianshu, come here!”
The crowd began whispering, and they automatically left a path open for her. All eyes were on Shen Qianshu, and she became the center of attention.
Shen Qianshu’s heart palpitated wildly. She could not control herself. Unspeakable feelings and sourness filled up in her chest. She walked towards Ye Ling slowly. She had avoided this path before. They had pushed each other away before. But now, they were back on the same path—the same path they had walked for a whole seven years.
“Is Ye Ling talking about Shen Qianshu? How romantic! I want to fall in love now.”
“I never thought that the cold-hearted Ye Ling could be so romantic too. How sweet. I’m so envious of Shen Qianshu.”
“Is he talking about Shen Qianshu? Was the student Ye Ling spoke about at the jewelry design competition actually Shen Qianshu? Is this a romantic relationship between a teacher and his student?”
“They knew each other from seven years ago? So Shen Qianshu’s son is Ye Ling’s?”
“One is charming, and one is beautiful. I am so jealous!”
Everyone was excited. Some were envious, and some were jealous. Li Zhiyuan stood at a corner, and there was an obscure expression in his eyes. He was like a dark knight!
Ye Ling… Ye Ling… He finally knew what it was that Ye Ling had and he did not…
Courage!
