“In that case, I’ll play a song to celebrate the old master’s birthday.”

Song Wei’s smile was faint. Her fingers moved along the black and white keys of the piano. The sound of the piano went from being gentle and free at the beginning to constantly expanding at the end. A medieval piece was slowly unwrapped in front of everyone. Along with the sound of the piano, everyone seemed to be looking at a thick and colorful oil painting.

The surging music shook everyone’s hearts.

Some of the guests present knew music and recognized that the piano piece Song Wei was playing was the most difficult piece in the world. Even the world’s top pianists could not play it with ease, but looking at her expression… She was playing it with ease and even calmness…

This was too incredible!

The guests present were subdued by the piano skills of the village woman in front of them. No one expected that this seemingly uncouth and unpresentable woman had such superb piano skills.

Qin Xiao was not surprised by this at all. These people were really inexperienced. His master was shamelessly invited to be a special guest by Master Xu, who was holding a concert tour around the world at the moment. Nonetheless, she rejected it.

If these people knew how great his master was, their jaws would probably fall off in shock.

There was also that idiot who had schemed against his master. The person had used such a childish trick to embarrass her master and was really too stupid.

As the last note fell, Song Wei’s fingers pressed heavily on the piano keys. The stirring music did not seem to have stopped, and the sound lingered.

Everyone seemed to have been pressed to pause. No one recovered from the shock of the music.

A look of appreciation flashed across Old Master Lou’s eyes, whereas Lou Junchen’s gaze was a little complicated. Lou Xue and An Nuan stood rooted to the ground. Lou Xue had not expected that she would throw a stone at her feet. She had originally wanted to make Song Wei lose face in public, but now, she had created an opportunity for her to show off!

‘Is this village woman really that great? No, no, no, that’s impossible. It must’ve been a fluke. She must’ve been lucky and happened to have learned piano.’

An Nuan saw that Lou Junchen’s gaze was glued to Song Wei, and she was so angry that she was about to break her palm. ‘This damn village woman must’ve secretly learned the piano from god knows where. What’s so great about it? How could a woman like her, who’s obviously working in the countryside, know classical music? It was just blind luck.’

When the other socialites came to their senses, they reacted the same as Lou Xue and An Nuan’s. So what if a village woman played a decent piano piece? They had heard a lot of piano pieces, so they could not look up to Song Wei just because of this, let alone admit that she was better than them.

If they were beaten down by a village woman, would they not be completely humiliated?

On the other hand, Old Master Lou’s attitude toward Song Wei was pretty good. He asked kindly, “You play the piano pretty well. Which master did you learn from?”

Lou Xue’s face twisted. She felt that her grandfather thought too highly of Song Wei. In any case, she could not tell how good Song Wei’s piano skills were. Moreover, how could a village woman learn from a master?

A master pianist would never perform in the countryside!

Sure enough, the next second, Song Wei answered indifferently, “I learned it casually. I don’t have a master. Since it’s your birthday today, I wish you happiness and a long life.”

An Nuan wanted to declare her sovereignty, so she ran to Lou Junchen’s side on purpose. She used a small fork to fork a piece of dim sum and carefully brought it to Lou Junchen’s mouth. Unfortunately, Lou Junchen did not even look at her from the beginning to the end as his gaze was fixed on Song Wei.

Song Wei glanced and saw a delicate and pretty lady of a rich family standing next to the noble Third Master Lou. The lady was feeding him food with a fork. They were a perfect match.

She chuckled softly. If Song Xiaoyu saw this, he would probably be sad. The father that he missed so much was already taken. Nevertheless, only Song Xiaoyu would think that a rich young master like Lou Junchen was his father. She had a carefree nature and was not interested in such a wealthy family.

Old Master Lou still wanted to chat with Song Wei, but she did not have the patience to continue pestering him. “The venison has been delivered, and I have returned the favor. Goodbye.”

After saying that, under everyone’s curious gazes, she left the banquet hall with Qin Xiao.

Lou Junchen silently withdrew his gaze and realized that a woman had unknowingly stood next to him. He frowned. Lin Yi, who was originally watching the show, finally reacted and quickly stood between Master Lou and An Nuan. Women these days were too difficult to deal with. Whenever there was an opportunity, they would move closer to Master Lou.

Afterward, Lou Junchen, Shen Cheng, and some of his familiar friends returned to the villa one after another.. They were still lamenting the scene at the banquet.
