Chapter 501: Forever bodyguard (Part 2)
Today was Su Fei Fei’s twentieth birthday and even if they didn’t take the initiative, Su Luo was anxious because this was a large matter for his daughter’s future. So, most people came prepared tonight. To have the confidence and qualification to show affection to Su Fei Fei here, their statuses were definitely not normal. Without having earth shaking political power or have over ten billion in assets, one wouldn’t have the face to stand out. They could only sit in the corner and secretly drool over Su Fei Fei.
When the long brocaded box was opened, there was a warm and white jade pendant without a single flaw. Just looking at it from the outside was enough to tell that it wasn’t normal and everything that was said about this jade just now…..It was a strange piece of jade that could keep one’s skin smooth and reduce the effects of aging. If these effects were real, this could simply be considered an item that could make all the girls in the world go crazy for. As for this young master of the giant Chinese Dongfang Group, he said all these rumours in front of all these important people. When the jade appeared, the eyes of all the girls fell on it as they revealed looks of envy and looks of greed hidden deep underneath the looks of envy. Regardless of its high value, its effects was something none of the women here could resist…..Especially this upper class group, these girls that rarely wanted any material goods and had appearances above other girls.
“Thank you, big brother Dongfang.” Su Fei Fei politely revealed a faint smile and thanked him. The giving of gifts was the fourth ceremony, but with Bai Ye Fan taking the lead, how could they fall behind.
“Zi Xun, this is such a precious gift and is your mother’s favourite item, it’s a bit wrong for my Fei Fei to accept it.” Su Luo spoke out while laughing.
Dongfang Zi Xun respectfully said, “My Dongfang Family doesn’t care about money. Zi Xun started to search for a present two months ago, but couldn’t find a present that suited little sister Fei Fei. Finally, I had no choice but to ask my mother for this Frozen Snow Blue Jade. For a long time, this Frozen Snow Blue Jade has been my mother’s most precious thing, she wouldn’t sell it to others even if it meant she lost everything. However, hearing that it was to give to little sister Fei Fei as a present, mother didn’t hesitate to give it to Zi Xun.”
Dongfang Zi Xun’s words was very polite and he looked extraordinary. He was young and was in charge of the Dongfang Family, so his ability could be seen. A precious gift that no girls could reject, in just a few short words……Although he didn’t say it clearly, the affection in his words could be heard by everyone.
“He, he, Zi Xun, you really have heart. I represent Fei Fei to thank your mother…..Uncle Liu, take it away and properly take care of it.” Su Luo said with a laugh.
“Uncle Su.” Dongfang Zi Xun didn’t leave after giving the gift and he straightened his face as he respectfully said to Su Luo, “There’s something……”
“Heavenly Mountain’s Snow Lotus and protective jade, these two are indeed very precious gifts. Compared to these, this one is ashamed to give my gift.”
Dongfang Zi Xun had said half his words when he was cut off by a voice. He had just given a precious gift and looking at his obvious expression, even a fool could guess what he wanted to say. He clearly wanted to express his love for Su Fei Fei or give his thoughts to Su Luo, but this voice had cut off his words. Dongfang Zi Xun slightly knit his brows, but seeing the person who spoke, his face visibly changed. He wanted to call that person “uncultured fool who cut people off”, but it was forced back down by him.
Another elegant young master walked out. When he appeared, there were whispers all around as some people who had prepared gifts changed expressions when they saw him and they stopped people. There was not a single person that dared take his spotlight.
In China’s business world, “Northern Su Luo and Southern Qin Huai” was known by everyone.
Although the Su Family had a complicated, but walking the road of business and reaching such a height, it was impossible to not have contact with the political world and the underground world. Su Luo had always done their best to avoid the underground world. In the Chinese business world, Su was first and Qin was second. Behind the Qin Family was the large character that everyone feared……The Chinese southern Dark King, Dugu!
One would rather provoke King Yama than offend Dugu. The Dugu Family controlled the entire south, with all the large and small underground forces under their palms, a number that couldn’t be counted. Such a large power, even the country didn’t rashly provoke. As long as they didn’t do anything too big, they silently accepted their existence. The people of the underground didn’t care about laws and once they were annoyed, they wouldn’t care and even raiding families had happened more than once or twice. In the south, people were all fearful mentioning the word “Dugu”.
As for this man, he was Qin Huai’s eldest son, Qin He.
His appearance clearly made the atmosphere change. Su Luo’s wrist was tough, but talking about the Qin Family, it wasn’t just tough, it was cold hearted and cruel. However, this Qin Family’s young master reputation was quite good and there had never been any bad rumours about him. When he came out, his style made people submit to him in their hearts.
Dongfang Zi Xun who was cut off gave a clean laugh and said, “So it’s brother Qin. We haven’t seen each other in two years and brother Qin is even more stylish than before.”
“Oh? I wonder if I am worthy of little sister Fei Fei.” Qin He said in a half joking voice.
Dongfang Zi Xun gave a soft laugh and said, “Little sister Fei Fei is the heaven’s beloved daughter and brother Qin is the heaven’s beloved son, but whether one is worthy or not does not depend on outer appearance, but rather one’s heart. What did brother Qin bring today? With young master Qin’s abilities, the gift must be extraordinary.”
Qin He narrowed his eyes as he said with a smile, “I came empty handed today.”
His hands indeed did not have anything and he didn’t bring anyone with him.
He moved past Dongfang Zi Xun and greeted Su Luo before turning to Su Fei Fei. His sharp eyes were filled with gentleness and his lips had a soft smile, “Little sister Fei Fei, today is your twentieth birthday, so first happy birthday…..Because I really couldn’t find a gift worthy of you, I could only come empty handed. I am indeed a bit…..”
Su Fei Fei said with a faint smile, “Young master Qin doesn’t need to be this polite. You specially came up from the south, Fei Fei is very gracious. This sentiment is more precious than any gift, Fei Fei will always remember it.”
Qin He’s smile became even more warm and he gave a slight bow as he said with a gentle smile, “Today is your twentieth birthday, if I don’t leave behind something, it will be a regret I have for the rest of my life…..Then, please allow me to play a song for Fei Fei……”
It wasn’t that he didn’t bring a gift, how could the Qin Family’s young master really not bring a gift.
When his final words fell, everyone could understand that his gift was this song.
On the left side of the hall, there was a magnificent piano. Qin He walked over with a faint smile and softly sat down in front of the piano. His fingers were placed above the keys.
The music had not begun, but he had attracted everyone’s eyes already. His clothes were not eye catching at all, rather it was excessively low key, but these ordinary clothes could not hide his noble aura. When he sat in front of the piano, his aura clearly changed, going from a noble young master to a sentimental graceful prince.
His long and slender fingers began to softly move across the keys and the beautiful as nature sounds of the piano flooded out, instantly turning the noisy hall quiet.
This was a song that everyone was familiar with and when it rang out, it had a kind of magic that made people unknowingly clap along softly. When the first note fluttered out, in many people’s hearts, there was the name that floated out, «Phoenix Courting Phoenix».
«Phoenix Courting Phoenix» was an ancient qin song written by the Han Dynasty composer Sima Xiang Ru, telling the love story between Sima Xiang Ru and Zhuo Wen Jun. With “Phoenix Courting Phoenix” as a whole, it not only contained their passionate courtship, it also embodied the man and woman’s extraordinariness, their nobility, and their deep understand of each other. «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» was handed down through the generations and countless geniuses have used it to convey their love to beautiful women.
When the piano rang out, Qin He closed his eyes and his lips had a faint smile. His slender fingers dangers atop the piano keys, creating bright sounds, as well as containing a deep and warm sentiment.
This was a publicly known song that had experienced the baptism of countless years of history. But under Qin He’s fingers, it didn’t sound played out, rather there was something that made people sigh with emotion hearing it, as if they were afraid to miss a single note. There was only the sound of the piano and there was no singing at all. In the hearts of people, they couldn’t help thinking of the words to «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» passed down through history.
The phoenix returns home and crosses the four seas to see the phoenix.
There is nowhere to go and only the phoenix is in my heart!
A beautiful woman in her room, the people outside are jealous of her.
Instead of a duck wrapped around a neck, I prefer you flying free like a swan!
Phoenix, phoenix come to me, I will be your wife forever.
We’ll come together in the middle of the night and who will know?
Flying high into the sky together, you cannot understand my sorrow.
Unknowingly, when the final note fell and the song ended, everyone had closed their eyes to appreciate it. Even the waiters in the crowd had stopped working and it was completely silent like the dead of night.
No one had thought that this elegant Qin He with an incomparable family background would have such shocking piano skills. They had heard many operas and piano masters, and even if they could appreciate it, they understood that normal people could have this kind of skills. Instantly, everyone was shocked by his talent.
Qin Family’s Qin He, this was a man with any kind of condition that could move a girl’s heart.
This song «Phoenix Courting Phoenix», it was clearly conveying his feelings for Su Fei Fei……
A single «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» made most of the youths feel depressed and everyone moved back.
The Qin Family’s young master was deeply in love with the Su Family’s princess. With this kind of perfect man showing her his love, would young miss Su reject him……
