Chapter 1118: Chapter 1118: Complaining About Scarlett’s Awful Piano Playing
Luo Keke didn’t expect her to still say thank you, a bit surprised, but her gaze became more sincere a moment later.
They chatted about Rainy City and the time in the Drama Crew.
The banquet began.
The hall lights suddenly dimmed until only one beam remained, illuminating the center of the Dance floor. An Emcee in a tailcoat walked over with a beaming smile, holding a microphone and said, "Our annual KM Charity Gala is about to begin. Before the gala starts, we are very honored to have invited Princess Scarlett from Country W to play a piano piece for us!"
"Princess Scarlett has been dedicated to children’s charity since she was young, making tremendous contributions to global charity causes. This time, Princess Scarlett has taken the lead in donating 50 million to the Country X Children’s and Women’s Rights Protection Fund. Additionally, Princess Scarlett specifically arranged to build five schools locally. As a representative of the children in Country X who have no books to read, I thank Princess Scarlett for her kindness."
The Emcee’s voice just fell, and there was a round of applause from the surroundings.
After the thunderous applause, the stage lights went completely dark. The entire hall plunged into darkness.
Chi Enen immediately felt a scorching big hand beside her grasping her hand tightly. At the same time, the familiar aroma of agarwood mixed with mint appeared behind her, like a shield, causing her heartbeat to skip a beat.
She was just touched for a moment when her palm was scratched, a surge of electricity passed from her palm to her heart, and she couldn’t help but pull her hand away.
As a result, it was grabbed forcefully!
Tyrannical fingers interlocked.
And it wasn’t over yet, warm breath came to her ear, the deep, husky voice irresistibly sexy, "Don’t move!"
Chi Enen, "..."
Just then, a haunting piano sound began to play.
Chi Enen couldn’t play the piano and still found the piano sound particularly beautiful, like a CD playing.
"Tsk, sounds terrible!" She was listening attentively, but a man’s voice came from above, filled with deep impatience.
Even though she didn’t like Scarlett, she had to say, "I think it’s played beautifully."
Li Beijue sneered, glaring at her, but realized in the darkness that Chi Enen couldn’t see his face. Annoyed, he said, "Completely showing off skills, where’s the beauty in that?"
This piano piece chosen by Scarlett was one he had played at the banquet several days ago, with Scarlett accompanying him on the violin.
Hearing Scarlett play this piece again today suddenly gave him the feeling of swallowing a fly.
It’s clearly a piece about resisting fate, but he could hear no hint of resistance in Scarlett’s playing, only boasting and insincerity!
This empty piano sound, he didn’t find it at all pleasing, only noisy! Annoyingly noisy!
"I think it’s played well." Chi Enen hadn’t studied piano and had no chance to study it, and couldn’t be as professional as Li Beijue. But to the ears of someone who knows nothing, Scarlett’s playing sounded really good, at least very smooth.
At this moment, the central light shone down, illuminating the maiden playing on the stage. Her peach-colored evening gown and expensive crystal piano complemented each other brilliantly, beautiful like a Princess stepping out of a fairy-tale, lively and graceful.
