"What?"
Su Zhen's face was full of surprise. She looked at Su Yu as if she had seen a ghost and asked in return, "You want to play the piano too?"
Su Zhen's expression was exaggerated. The way she looked at Su Yu was as if she was looking at a strange clown.
Countless people were covering their mouths and sniggering. With Su Zhen's performance in front of them, Su Yu was embarrassing herself by doing this.
After all, Su Zhen's piano skills were ranked among the best in the entire Imperial Capital.
"Su Yu..."
Su Wen was afraid that Su Yu would lose face. He shook his head disapprovingly, hinting at her not to show off.
Su Yu smiled at Su Wen and nodded. Then, she slowly walked to the piano. Everyone surrounded her immediately. After all, it was not every day that they had the chance to see the Young Madam of the Gu family lose face.
Su Yu looked up and met Gu Chen's eyes. Her eyes were filled with shyness. Then, she looked at Gu Chen and said, "This song is for you. I'm playing it for you. I hope you'll like it."
Gu Chen nodded. His eyes were gentle as he replied to Su Yu, "As long as it's from Madam, I'll like it no matter what!"
"I think this music should be the most beautiful melody in the world!"
Su Yu and Gu Chen had feelings for each other. It was as if they only had each other in their eyes.
After being fed a mouth of dog food, the young ladies from the rich and powerful families who were watching all said disdainfully, "I think that other than Gu Chen, no one would like an arrogant woman."
"She will lose her face soon!"
"Su Yu wouldn't think that just because the piano can make a sound, it means that she's playing, right?"
"Hahaha..."
Everyone burst into laughter. Su Yu lowered her head and looked at her fingers, ignoring them completely.
Su Yu's pure white fingers danced on the black and white piano keys. The melodious notes were like the clear spring in the mountains, like the cheerful birds in the forest, beautiful and moving.
Everyone was stunned.
Gu Chen looked at the woman in front of him who was immersed in the performance. She was elegant and confident, like a fairy in the cloud making people unable to take their eyes off her.
Everyone present was immersed in the beautiful music. Only Su Zhen and Fang Yan looked at Su Yu in shock.
Su Zhen lowered her voice and asked Fang Yan, "Didn't you say that you've investigated everything? Didn't you say that Su Yu doesn't know anything and is just a country bumpkin?"
Fang Yan shook her head in disbelief too. "No, it shouldn't be!"
"That's impossible!"
Before the song could be played, someone exclaimed, "It's Richard's Greensleeves!"
As soon as this was said, the crowd exploded immediately.
Countless rich and powerful young ladies looked at each other and listened carefully. Then, someone exclaimed, "It's Greensleeves. I never thought that there would be someone in this world who could play Greensleeves upside down, and it would be so moving!"
"Play it upside down?"
At this moment, the banquet hall was silent. Everyone's gaze fell on the petite and gentle Girl.
If Su Zhen's piano skills could be said to be at level ten, then Su Yu was at the mythical level. Su Zhen's playing skills and even her understanding of the piano were not even one-tenth of Su Yu's. The two of them were not on the same level at all, hence, there was no way to compare.
It was as if a child wanted to challenge an adult.
Su Yu raised her hand, and the music immediately stopped.
Gu Chen smiled and took the lead in clapping. Immediately, there was a burst of loud applause. There were no more sarcastic words. Everyone was impressed by Su Yu's superb playing skills.
Su Yu bit her lower lip and glanced at the crowd shyly. Then, she bowed to everyone with a red face. She looked obedient and polite.
In the face of absolute strength, all criticism would lose its effect!
Countless mocking words instantly turned into countless praises. "Mrs Gu is amazing!"
"With such a level of piano performance, I wonder which famous school she graduated from?"
"I don't think there's a second person in the entire Imperial Capital who's so amazing!"
