Chapter 1072: The Gu Family Has No Talent In Music
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Yue family was a musical family and was most famous for their piano skills. Miss Yue was also good at playing. Back then, the Yue family was famous in the country, but later on…
Qiao Xi gathered her thoughts and bade farewell to the Yin family. She got into the car with Gu Zheng and Gu Yao to return to Longwan Residential.
“You looked very interested just now. Do you like playing the piano?” Gu Zheng asked softly.
Qiao Xi nodded lightly. “Yes, I quite like it. I even learned it for a period of time.”
Gu Zheng chuckled as he looked at her. “Mrs. Gu, you’re very talented in music. I can’t embarrass you.”
Qiao Xi nodded and did not take his words to heart. However, after getting out of the car, Gu Zheng walked straight to the backyard. Song Shiyu and Song Shijing were stunned. They looked at each other in horror.
Qiao Xi: “…” What was going on? What were these two doing?
Was the backyard so scary? Why did they look so resistant?
“Song Shiyu.” Gu Zheng’s voice came from not far away. “Come here.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Xi could clearly see a look of despair on Song Shiyu’s face. Song Shijing, on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief.
Qiao Xi was really curious about what Gu Zheng wanted to do in the backyard, so she quietly pulled Gu Yao to the backyard. The two of them walked to the innermost courtyard and found a corner to hide.
Not long after, the ear-piercing sound of a piano came from inside. The crazily out of tune notes made Qiao Xi and Gu Yao instantly petrified.
Gu Yao covered his ears with a painful expression, his eyes filled with disbelief. He hurriedly took a few steps back. “Qiao Xi, I’ll leave first. You can stay and enjoy this tune yourself.”
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. She was truly unable to accept that Gu Zheng, who was almost perfect, did not have the slightest talent in music. It was even to the extent that he was playing a tune that made one want to die.
At this moment, Gu Yao only wanted to escape, but the person playing had already seen him. There was a faint smile on his lips as he stared at Gu Yao with deep eyes.
He did not dare to move. If Gu Zheng knew that he despised this song, he would definitely be beaten up.
At this moment, Gu Zheng had finished playing a song according to the score. When he turned around, he saw Song Shiyu’s grimacing expression. Every cell in his body was resisting this sound.
Gu Zheng smirked. Was it still very unpleasant?
For the first time, he felt a sense of defeat. He admitted that he was an idiot at music. Music indeed required talent. He originally thought that he could not play the zither well, but he could try playing the piano. He could always learn at least one musical instrument and play it for Qiao Xi. However, he did not expect that the tune he played was still very bad.
As soon as he stood up, Gu Zheng saw the two people standing in the courtyard. Gu Yao had a pained expression, while Qiao Xi was standing on the spot in a daze, her eyes filled with shock.
Gu Zheng was not embarrassed and pushed the door open generously. “Did you hear everything?”
Qiao Xi: “…” Actually, it really didn’t matter whether he learned how to play the piano or not. She really didn’t care, but ever since Gu Zheng heard that she liked music, he would always secretly run to the backyard to practice just for the sake of playing for her. Even though the sound of the zither was very unpleasant, Qiao Xi was still very touched.
Women were emotional. Qiao Xi was touched, so she walked forward and said, “Ah Zheng, I’ll teach you how to play.”
Gu Zheng was stunned. Song Shiyu looked at her with wide eyes.
Qiao Xi patted her chest and said confidently, “Actually, the piano isn’t very difficult. You need a teacher to teach you. I believe that I’ll definitely be able to teach you. Although you won’t be able to reach the level of performing, you’ll at least be able to play in private.”
Hearing her words, Gu Zheng’s eyes were filled with smiles. He held Qiao Xi’s hand and chuckled. “Alright.”
…
Half an hour later, Qiao Xi collapsed on the chair with a hopeless expression. At this moment, she was extremely regretful. Why did she say she would teach Gu Zheng how to play the piano on a whim?
Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with doubt. Gu Zheng was clearly so elegant when he played the violin, and his posture was also so standard. He was simply like a young prince of music. And when his long fingers landed on the piano keys, it was such a beautiful scene, but every note was so strange.
If one did not hear the sound and just looked at the scene, they would definitely think that the man in front of them was an outstanding musician.
At this moment, Gu Yao was leaning against the window and saying softly, “Gu Zheng, you’re already so perfect. It’s normal for you to not have any musical talent. If you know everything, will you still be human? Won’t you become a god?”
“The Gu family doesn’t have any musical talent at all. None of us know music. I must be tone-deaf too. If you don’t believe me, I’ll try playing something!”
With that, Gu Yao sat on the chair and imitated Qiao Xi’s posture. His fingers were on the piano keys. He had never learned how to play the piano, but when he saw Qiao Xi play just now, he remembered a few beats and tried to play with his fingers.
