Chapter 98: Listening to Live Music at the Teahouse

“No need. I can head up there myself. Just go look for the musician,” Nangong Ba flatly rejected his offer.

The manager bowed slightly with a smile, and humbly replied, “Young master Nangong, please wait a moment. I’ll go look for our best Guqin[1] player.”

Nangong Ba ignored the manager and escorted Liu Rushuang upstairs and into the best looking room. However, there were people already in there.

But when Nangong Ba stepped inside, the people in the room left in a hurry.

Liu Rushuang blinked and asked, “Why did they run away when they saw you?”

Nangong Ba walked in and sat by the table. “Because people of the Capital know that I own this street. Naturally, they don’t dare argue with me,” he said with a shallow smile.

Liu Rushuang was surprised for a moment. It didn’t take half an hour to finish walking down this street, but because of how clean it was and how it had many new and odd items were sold, many commoners would go there to window shop.

Who would have thought that these were all Nangong Ba’s businesses. Just as expected, the richest man in the city sure was extraordinary huh?

Liu Rushuang walked over to the table and sat opposite from Nangong Ba. “How are you so rich at such a young age?” She asked emotionally.

She waited for Nangong Ba to say that his fortunes were all inherited, but it more or less ignited Nangong Ba’s arrogance, as he pulled a wicked smile.

Nangong Ba froze for a second. Was she asking for the secret of his success? Then, he smiled proudly and said, “Besides the success his ancestors earned in the silk industry in Baiyun City, I founded various businesses in Beiming because I have a seductive and wise inner breath. All my business connections were formed from my extraordinary business mind.”

Liu Rushuang’s lips twitched. It looks like he didn’t inherit it and relies on mesmerizing people to get by. How truly shameless.

Nangong Ba knew what Liu Rushuang thought and immediately added, “I rarely use my charm inner breath when I do business. I earned my business through honest means.”

Liu Rushuang refused to say a word.

Nangong Ba stopped explaining. Just when the servant boy poured a cup of tea and put it on the table, he handed it right away to Liu Rushuang. “We’ve been walking for so long now, so you must be thirsty. The tea here tastes great. Try some.”

Liu Rushuang coldly took the cup and downed it in one go, then put the teacup down.

…

Shortly after, a beautiful woman dressed in white dress with embroidered orchids walked up to the stand and sat behind the table with the Guqin. Knowing that the person in front of her was Nangong Ba, she concentrated particularly hard whilst playing the Guqin.

But Liu Rushuang only heard one part, then walked over to her and waved her arm as if to ask the woman to leave.

Althoughv that beautiful woman wasn’t too happy about it, she had no choice but to move aside. In her heart, she was annoyed that Liu Rushuang actually stole her chance to perform for young master Nangong.

Liu Rushuang sensed her angry glare but smiled. Shall I show you what playing Guqin is really like?

Liu Rushuang played the Guqin so well that it made everyone imagine the concept of the Guqin as an artistic gift upon the world.

Nangong Ba was delighted to listen to her play. He rarely heard such a smooth and melodic song played on the Guqin.

The woman in white stood aside in astonishment for a second. She never imagined that the Guqin could sound so good. It was more refreshing than the Spring breeze which swept across her face and more mellow than running water. It really sounded fantastic.

Nangong Ba scoffed and walked over to the woman in the white dress.

The woman in the white dress suddenly raised her head and looked at Nangong Ba with adoration.

Nangong Ba looked at the woman with the small oval face, fair skin, and watery, fox-like, seductive eyes. With a smile upon her bright red lips, she asked “Just who are you?” in a voice like a cold breeze swept in.
