In the crowd, Xue Yating saw the girl walking down the stairs and thought she looked familiar. Why did she look so much like Wan Dou?
Mu Chenguang looked at Wan Dou with a faint smile, as if they were the only two people in the world and he only had eyes for her.
He was stunned by her appearance today. She was so beautiful that he could not take his eyes off her.
When Wan Dou arrived at the first floor, Li Meien immediately came up to her and held her hand. He brought her into the crowd and introduced her to friends.
The rich ladies began to praise her. “She is indeed Mr. Wen’s daughter! She looks dignified and elegant!”
“Her name is Wen Qianxi, isn’t it? She sounds so good, just like her name!”
“Mrs. Wen, you have two daughters now. Oh right, why isn’t your Shiyu here today?”
Li Meien smiled and said, “Our Shiyu did not attend today so that she would not steal her sister’s limelight. Today is mainly to introduce Qianxi to everyone.”
“Shiyu is so sensible and obedient! Mrs. Wen is so lucky to have two good daughters.”
“Since she’s Mr. Wen’s daughter, she must be very powerful! The Wen family is a music family. I wonder if Miss Wen Qianxi can show us your talent?”
“Yes, yes, yes. Like father, like daughter. Miss Wen Qianxi, why don’t you show us something?”
“There’s a piano here. Miss Wen Qianxi will definitely play the piano, right? Come on!”
…
Everyone had high hopes for Wan Dou, but at this time, Wen Zhehan was extremely worried.
He knew that his daughter was born with an ordinary background. How could she learn to play the piano, let alone play the piano?
He was worried that Wan Dou would be frightened at such an occasion. He wanted to step forward to help his daughter, but Mu Chenguang held his arm. “Uncle Wen, don’t worry. Wait and see!”
“Qianxi, it’s fine if you don’t know how to play music,” Li Mei’en said with a smile. “No one will force you. After all, you and Xiaoyu have been living in different environments since you were little. Xiaoyu has been exposed to music since she was very young. She is talented and has a strong foundation. Since you were young, your conditions were limited and you did not have much contact with music. All the aunties can understand.”
Li Meien’s words might seem dignified, but in reality, she was trying to compare her to Wen Shiyu, implying that she was inferior to Wen Shiyu in every aspect.
At this time, Wandou said to the people in front of her, “Let me try! If I don’t play well, please don’t laugh at me.”
With that, she picked up her dress and walked to the piano. She turned to look at Mu Chenguang in the crowd and saw that he was looking at her with concern. He was smiling and nodding at her.
Wan Dou could feel his encouragement and was filled with courage. After sitting down, she took a deep breath and raised her hands to place them on the piano keys.
Her fair and delicate hands gently fell down. Soon, a string of beautiful notes flowed out.
It was just the beginning, but it instantly stunned everyone. Everyone stopped talking and looked at the source of the voice.
As Wan Dou’s fingers moved, the beautiful piano piece became increasingly moving.
When she played, her mind was filled with the beautiful times with Mu Chenguang. At that time, he would sit beside her and teach her how to play the piano.
He said that a piano wasn’t played with eyes or ears, but with heart.
She closed her eyes and focused on the music.
He also said that she was very talented in music. Now, she used her own hands to prove that she was indeed a descendant of a music family.
