Chapter 394: Chapter 0394: The Sinister and Calculating Consort Dongfang Shu
For a moment, everyone’s gazes fell upon Xia Xiangyu and Fu Zibo!
They knew about the bet Xia Xiangyu and Fu Zibo had made, and now it was clear that Ye Xunhuan’s piano mastery was far superior to Fu Zibo’s!
Or rather, the two were simply not on the same level!
If Ye Xunhuan were a top-tier piano master, then Fu Zibo would merely be considered a beginner student!
Even to those who didn’t understand the piano, under Ye Xunhuan’s outstanding performance, they could still distinguish who had greater piano expertise.
After all, music is a universal language; Ye Xunhuan’s playing could resonate with everyone, while Fu Zibo’s could only be regarded as pleasant to the ear. This alone was enough to judge the superior from the inferior!
Under the scrutiny of everyone’s gazes, Fu Zibo and Xia Xiangyu’s faces turned burning hot, as if they had been slapped silently—a slap that made no sound, but caused an unbearable sting!
They had planned to thoroughly humiliate Ye Xunhuan, but who would have guessed it would backfire!
They had not anticipated that Ye Xunhuan could play so well and possess such high proficiency on the piano.
Not to mention them, no one else had expected this either.
"Han Qing, that..."
Upon seeing Xia Xiangyu’s complexion, Mei Hanqing directly scoffed, "Don’t talk to me about it, I’m not the one who made the bet with you, I’m just here for the show!"
If the old Mei Hanqing might have had a woman’s mercy, after the pain of struggling in society for so many years, she had seen through everything.
If today’s loser had been Ye Xunhuan, Xia Xiangyu would definitely not have let him off, and would have humiliated her as well.
Therefore, there was no way she would speak for Xia Xiangyu.
If you wanted to humiliate others, then be prepared to be humiliated yourself first.
Upon hearing Mei Hanqing’s words, Xia Xiangyu’s face slightly changed!
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan spoke up again, "What, thinking of reneging on the bet now?"
As Ye Xunhuan’s voice fell, Xia Xiangyu looked towards Fu Zibo as if seeking salvation!
Feeling Xia Xiangyu’s pleading gaze, Fu Zibo took a deep breath and set his sights on Ye Xunhuan, "Mr. Ye..."
Fu Zibo had barely begun to speak when he was immediately interrupted by Ye Xunhuan, "Are you asking me to let you off the hook?"
"Mr. Ye, it doesn’t seem very gentlemanly to put a woman in such a difficult position..."
"You make it sound as if I have ever been gentlemanly!" Ye Xunhuan chuckled, "Those who know me never talk to me about being gentlemanly. They know that I, firstly, have no taste, secondly, no sense of propriety, and thirdly, no bottom line!"
The other customers in the restaurant couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words.
This guy is really entertaining!
Fu Zibo’s already grim expression seemed as if it could wring out water at this moment, "Han Qing, you..."
"Don’t talk to me either; this is between you and him, I don’t care," Mei Hanqing coldly snorted.
"Han Qing, I know you resent Xiang Yu for stealing me away from you, but after all, we were classmates..."
Upon hearing this, the audience suddenly understood—it was a melodrama!
But was this guy delusional, to have dumped Mei Hanqing.
Whether in terms of figure, appearance, or temperament, Mei Hanqing surpassed Xia Xiangyu by more than a little!
Could it be he ditched Cinderella for a rich beauty, and now Cinderella has found a wealthy and handsome guy for revenge? 𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑝𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝘮
This plot twist, my god, is just too much!
Indeed, at this moment, to everyone’s eyes, Ye Xunhuan was the wealthy and handsome guy. After all, not just anyone had the funds to learn piano, much less achieve such mastery in it!
Without sufficient financial backing, it would be absolutely impossible to succeed!
Mei Hanqing’s face changed slightly, "Honestly, I should really thank her for stealing you away and making it clear to me what’s human and what’s a dog!"
A fierce look flashed in Fu Zibo’s eyes, but he had to forcibly suppress his anger, "Han Qing..."
"I’ve said it, this has nothing to do with me; you were the ones who wanted to challenge Ye Xunhuan. I didn’t force you," Mei Hanqing said coldly, "We were just eating, and you came over to provoke us, thinking you were all that. Now you’ve seen how formidable Xunhuan is, and you want to beg for mercy!"
"If Xunhuan wasn’t so formidable, would you let him off if I begged you?"
Would they?
Obviously not!
"Little Qingqing, stop wasting words with him. Hurry up, kneel down!" Ye Xunhuan said indifferently, "If you think it’s inappropriate for me to bully a woman, then you can kneel down as well!"
"Of course, don’t even think about weaseling out. I hate it when people try to go back on their word..."
Just as Ye Xunhuan finished speaking, a seductive voice suddenly rang out, "Little brother, who is trying to weasel out of a deal with you now?"
"Sister will help you collect!"
Without even thinking, Ye Xunhuan knew who was speaking!
In the whole of Jiangzhong City, let alone the entire Zhonghai Province, other than Dongfang Shu, there was definitely no one else who called him little brother!
Sure enough, as Ye Xunhuan anticipated, the speaker was Dongfang Shu.
However, Dongfang Shu came down from upstairs, wearing a fiery red dress that perfectly showcased her stunning figure!
At this moment, Dongfang Shu had a captivating smile on her face, and she walked step by step down the stairs toward Ye Xunhuan!
Everyone who saw Dongfang Shu were deeply attracted to her and couldn’t look away.
Mei Hanqing is enticing enough, isn’t she? And her aura is seductive enough, right?
But compared to the saucy widow Dongfang Shu, Mei Hanqing at best is like a little fox that’s just transformed into human form, while Dongfang Shu is like a fox that has cultivated for a thousand years—they’re simply not on the same level.
Under everyone’s gaze, Dongfang Shu walked up to Ye Xunhuan and hooked his arm. She seemed as if she couldn’t get close enough to him!
On seeing this scene, everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Damn, such a delicate flower stuck on a pile of cow dung?
And those guests who recognized Dongfang Shu, upon seeing this scene, couldn’t help but recall a name in their minds—Ye Xunhuan!
Could this man be the one who recently climbed into the bed of the Widow Empress, becoming the king of the Widow Empress’ bedchamber?
"Little brother, is it them?" Dongfang Shu looked at Fu Zibo and Xia Xiangyu and said, "Sister will stand up for you!"
Ye Xunhuan was speechless. Do I seriously need you to stand up for me?
"So you want to renege on the deal, is that it?" Dongfang Shu said with a soul-enticing voice, "A few days ago, the son of Zhonghai’s richest man Qi Shijie lost a bet to my little brother and tried to renege on it, too!"
"But in the end, he knelt down obediently. So are you going to kneel on your own, or do you need me to help you?"
Dongfang Shu looked at the two with a smiling expression, yet her smile contained a hint of demonic charm.
Upon hearing Dongfang Shu’s words, everyone shivered inwardly.
This... this guy is really that Ye Xunhuan!
As for Ye Xunhuan, his heart was filled with chill. This Dongfang Shu clearly had no good intentions!
The incident of Qi Shijie kneeling was only circulating among the upper class, but the middle class had no clue about it, let alone the lower class. Now that Dongfang Shu had put it this way, it would probably be completely out by tomorrow. One could only imagine what the results would be!
This woman was utterly malicious!
