All of this had changed because of him.
He never said any beautiful words of romance to her…..But the emotions flowing in the piano music, the gentleness that entered one's heart…..She could feel it, she could feel it all.
Having this «Phoenix Courting Phoenix»…..It was enough, it was completely enough. That flood of emotions inside her told her that she would never regret meeting him, never regret her choice…..
Ye Tian Xie slowly walked in front of her and held her delicate trembling shoulders as he gently said, “Fei Fei, I never gave you any kind of true promise, but being with you, I can forget all my sadness. You have this kind of magic that deeply draws me in, making me unable to stop coming back. Fei Fei, this is the unique charm that you have that only I can feel. I don't know when it began, but I always felt grateful to destiny for bringing you to my side…..That day, I said to you that even if you wanted to leave me, I wouldn't allow it. Even if I had to lock you up or forever keep you by me, I would never let you leave my side…..Today, I want to say in front of uncle Su and all the friends here…..I, Ye Tian Xie want to protect Su Fei Fei for her entire life. Even if the world ends, I will never let go.”
Su Fei Fei's tears were already flooding out. She forgot where she was and all the people here. In front of everyone, she threw herself into Ye Tian Xie's embrace with all her might. It was a warm and safe place, a place that completely captured her. A place where she no longer needed to feel fear and a place she never wanted to leave…..
“Pa…..” The people in the hall all stood up and began to warmly applaud. There was no envy or jealousy, this scene was not related to wealth and background, they even forgot who Su Fei Fei's family was, forgetting Ye Tian Xie's status, and forgetting the tense atmosphere from before. There was only that deep affection that infected all of them. Lovers became a family! At this time, their love sparkled brighter than the brightest diamond, lasting forever without any flaws.
[TL Note: Envy and jealousy are indeed two different things according to the dictionary.]
Su Luo watched the two hugging with a faint smile. That man who shook the world and stood at the apex only cried on the day his wife died. In that moment, he almost couldn't hold back the tears that were about to come from his eyes.
His wife had already pa.s.sed for tens years now…..Ten years…..Fei Fei, his only daughter, his only blood relative. The biggest hope and desire he had in his life was for her to have the happiest life. He closed his eyes and raised his head, not wanting his tears to fall down. His mind was filled with his wife's smile and voice before she died, “Wen Xin, do you see it…..Our daughter has finally found someone to rely on, her happiness…..”
Zuo Po Jun and Murong Qiu Shui gave strong claps. Zuo Po Jun clapped while gritting his teeth, “d.a.m.n, what song did second bro play just now, even my tears almost came out…..Second brother actually knows how to play piano and plays so…..so…..”
For a moment, he couldn't describe how good that «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» Ye Tian Xie played was because the music had entered one's soul. It couldn't be described no matter how beautiful the words used were.
“Ai, we still don't understand second brother enough……If there is a man…..Un, a woman who played a song for me like this, I would wildly fall in love with her.” Murong Qiu Shui looked at the two on the stage and softly said. Then he raised a brow and his eyes began to burn, “Once beloved second brother becomes romantic, he actually becomes this irresistible….Oh! Second brother, in this world, is there anything you can't do…..In the next life, I have to be a woman for him to conquer…..Oh, oh, it's conquer you!”
Zuo Po Jun: ⊙﹏⊙b……
They didn't know why Ye Tian Xie knew how to play the piano and why it sounded this amazing, but they were certain…..that Su Fei Fei would become their second sister in law!
Of course, there were people with ugly expressions.
For example, Qin He or those rich family's juniors who couldn't believe that the Su Family's princess actually fell in love with a bodyguard.
Qin He wanting Ye Tian Xie to play piano was to make him lose face, but he never thought that it would end like this. The smile on his face had already completely disappeared and it looked much uglier. Ye Tian Xie's piano playing skills far surpa.s.sed his expectations and his own knowledge. Even he was lost in the sounds of the «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» for a long time.
Just now, Qin He's «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» had caused shock and admiration, making the glow around him even brighter. But with the same song and the same piano, the «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» Ye Tian Xie played had completely suppressed Qin He's glow. Qin He's «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» was pleasant to hear, but Ye Tian Xie's «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» had shaken their emotions and mind, making them feel sadness and joy. This emotion had taken a while for them to recover from and it was deeply imprinted in their hearts. Compared to this, although Qin He's «Phoenix Courting Phoenix» was beautiful, it was forgotten after it was heard. Who would remember it?
This was the difference beautiful wine and boiled water.
To Qin He, this was a sharp slap on his face. He was the respected Qin Family's young master, not only was he a loser, he was also used as a foil by a “bodyguard”.
Those elders that stood at the peak of China all revealed shocked expressions. The girls that used to look at Ye Tian Xie with disdain all had pa.s.sionate eyes and even looked at Su Fei Fei with eyes of envy…..That piano song, it went even beyond the sounds of nature.
Ye Tian Xie used a finger to wipe a tear off her face and softly said, “Alright Fei Fei, if you keep crying, the clothes you prepared for me will become soaked…..Un? Aren't you afraid that if uncle Su sees that I made you cry this much that he would angrily stomp me down?”
Fei Fei made a “puchi” sound while softly crying and she secretly pinched Ye Tian Xie's arm. She finally looked up from his embrace before turning around to fix her hair and wipe her tears…..In this life, this was her first time losing control like this and it was in front of all these people. They were all business giants, rich families, and provincial party members……
After a moment, she turned again with tear stains on her face. She gave a slight bow and apologized with a faint smile, “Sorry everyone, Fei Fei just now….lost control a bit.”
“Ha, ha, ha, ha, young man, truly envious.” An old man whose hair was half white gave a warm laugh.
“Niece Fei Fei, uncle will say something that isn't hurtful at all…..The Su Family's princess' eyes really aren't ordinary. Although this little friend you admire is your “bodyguard”, but his appearance and aura aren't normal, it's not something a normal person can have. Even if his wings haven't spread, he will one day become a dragon among men. I've never misjudged someone.” A middle aged man said with a laugh.
“He, he, Old Kong, you said what I wanted to say. This little fellow definitely is not a normal person. I think this “bodyguard” should be just a cover up, right? If it was said he was a prince from some country, I would believe it. Little fellow, my daughter also likes playing piano and I like to listen to some piano music on occasion. I have a question to ask. What kind of technique did you use to make your music reach such a complicated realm?” A white faced middle aged man who looked to be around fifty with square framed gla.s.ses spoke up.
“Tian Xie, he is the current capital city mayor.” Su Fei Fei said in a small voice in his ear.
“The heart is the main part and the hand is a compliment. If one's heart is true, the sentiment will naturally flow into the music. If one's heart is not true, this gorgeous tone will be an empty sh.e.l.l.” Ye Tian Xie replied. His answer made quite a few people in the hall confused.
“The heart is the main part and the hand is a compliment….He, he.” The middle aged man shook his head, “It sounds easy, but how many people can truly understand that? At least in my life, I have only seen you.”
Everyone's attention was focused on Ye Tian Xie and the loser Qin He was completely ignored in this moment. His heart full of rage was finally too difficult to hold back, so he moved in front of Ye Tian Xie and said, “Your piano playing skills are indeed not bad, I, Qin He am filled with praise and candidly admit defeat. If there is another chance, I hope I can learn from you. However…..Do you know what status Fei Fei has? Do you know what she needs? Just the lip gloss she uses can't be bought by a bodyguard like you in ten years!” He paused and suddenly turned his head to Su Luo as he said, “Uncle Su! Fei Fei liking this kind of person, your nephew can't watch this any longer! They are not people of the same level! If they are together, in the future…..In the future, it will have a very large impact. With the Su Family's credentials, how could a little bodyguard be worthy of Fei Fei! If he really entered the Su Family, this will not be a small impact on the Su Family's fame……Moreover, this person only looks good and plays piano well. This person has a glib mouth and this kind of people are very sly. Fei Fei is that pure, she is very easily tricked by others. If this keeps developing like this, the ending will be hard to imagine. So uncle Su, you must be careful on this matter.”
“What bulls.h.i.+t is this!!”
When Qin He finished, an angry thunder like roar came from the side. A purple sand teapot flew over and slammed into Qin He's head, shattering with a “pa” sound.
