Chapter 455 Famous International Pianist
It was a midsummer night, and the lights were dim.
The concert hall was surrounded by reporters and the media. In order to ensure that the concert would be held smoothly, there were more than two hundred policemen outside the hall to maintain order. This was one of the most sensational concerts in A city in recent years, and even the lead pianist of the Vie
a Orchestra had never been so excited when he came to A city for his concert.
Zhou Manzhu was sitting in the backstage area being tossed around by the makeup artist, and beside her sat a refined looking man in a blue suit. His smile was as warm as the winter sun as he carefully examined the woman beside him.
All these years, Yu Chen had accompanied Zhou Manzhen and founded YC Group. He married Zhou Manzhu in the United States and had a cute daughter.
"Xiaochun, you're so beautiful." Yu Chen's eyes were filled with happiness. There were so many beautiful women in this world, but Zhou Manzhen was the only one he had in his heart.
"Thank you for your praise." The makeup artist had just applied lipstick. Even after three years, Zhou Manzhen's appearance hadn't changed at all, but her temperament had become much more mature than before. Her eyes were still as clear as ever, making it hard for anyone to look away.
Zhou Manzhen stood up and walked to the fitting room mirror to turn around. Her graceful body was like that of a lively fairy, and the purple skirt-plastered dress tightly wrapped around her chest, revealing a chasm that was enough to cause crime. Her whole back was hollow, and her smooth and snow-white skin made people unconsciously think of her, making her look even more enchanting.
The designer walked up, holding a bottle of expensive perfume and sprinkling it onto Zhou Manzhen's wrist, neck, and dress. Zhou Manzhen used to rarely spray out perfume, and in the past two years, she had attended large and small concerts, as if she was already used to this kind of fragrance.
The designer tidied up her hair a little, then took a silver hairpin and coiled it around her head. The hair on her temples just slipped, and Zhou Manzhen held it behind her ears. On her petite earlobes, hung two strings of golden tasseled earrings. Her makeup was extremely simple, as if she had no makeup on, but her beauty was already outrageous.
Yu Chen embraced Zhou Manzhu from behind, hugging her tightly as he rested his chin on her shoulder. His gaze never left her body as the corners of his mouth curled up into a doting smile, "My wife, you're so beautiful."
Zhou Manzhu's red lips slightly lifted as she smiled coquettishly.
Qian Moli, who was in the dressing room, had goosebumps all over her body. She wrapped her arms around herself and rubbed her arms, "I say, how could the two of you not be so disgusting?"
"Jasmine, you should hurry and find a man to marry." Zhou Manzhen said with a very gentle voice and a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Qian Moli lowered her eyes, and her butterfly wings lightly fluttered twice. She muttered, "No, I'm not. Being single is great. I'm free to be alone."
She was one year younger than him, a female lawyer, and was also a junior sister of Yu Chen. Zhou Manzhen and Qian Moli had met each other in the United States, and Qian Moli was now the legal advisor of YC Group, as well as a good friend of Zhou Manzhen and Yu Chen.
"Now that we are back home, don't praise the fact that the Americans don't want to get married." Just as Zhou Manzhen was about to bend down and change into a pair of high heels, Yu Chen was already one step ahead of her. He held onto a silver high heel with one hand while gently holding onto Zhou Manzhu's beautiful ankle, helping her to put on the high heels with his own hands.
On her feet hung an extremely delicate chain. It was a design drawn by Yu Chen herself and custom-made by a designer. Since she put it on, she had never taken it off.
"So beautiful." Wu Chen's eyes lit up at the sight of Zhou Manzhen's well-dressed appearance, praising him endlessly.
Tens of thousands of people in the concert hall.
Zhou Manzhen's performance today attracted a lot of fans. After she left A City, she had been lost for a time and didn't know what to do in the future. She even hated playing the piano, but Yu Chen had a feeling that Zhou Manzhen's most suitable occupation was not as a doctor but as a pianist. She was an elegant and beautiful woman, and even though she looked beautiful while holding a scalpel, he wanted her to stand under the spotlight and become an internationally renowned pianist.
After going to America, Zhou Manzhu rested at home for three whole months. Yu Chen bought the piano, but she did not even glance at it because it was his saddest memory. When he saw the piano, all the bad memories came back to her, so she did not want to play anymore.
One day, however, Zhou Manzhen saw that Yu Chen was actually playing the piano in front of his. Liu Anya was a piano teacher, and Yu Chen had been influenced by music since he was young, so he also knew how to play the piano, just that he was not as proficient as Zhou Manzhen. Yu Chen had long since forgotten the five lines of music he had learned when he was young and even the position of his fingers on the keyboard was wrong.
This was how Yu Chen encouraged Zhou Manzhu to play the zither again. He felt that the music she played was as pure as her heart, and he loved to hear her play the zither.
Yu Chen had helped her register for a lot of competitions without her knowledge. Finally, the girl who had stood out in the competition had attracted the attention of the outside world, and she had used a year's worth of time to quickly rise to fame. Moreover, she had a strange hobby of never appearing on the piano, and many people speculated who she was, as well as the fact that she always wore a hat when she participated in competitions. However, her fans felt that she had a character, was cool, and had already guessed that this was a woman with a story.
For the same piece of music, when different people played it, they would have different feelings. This was because everyone's zither skills were different. If one wanted to move the hearts of others with their true music, they would have to learn how to tell stories.
Mackie's every piece of music had a story in it, and at her performance, there were even a lot of tears. No one knew who she was, and no one knew how much effort she had expended to achieve what she had achieved today. Yu Chen was her first supporter and his best one.
She wore a grey hat on her head, and a large net veil like a cloud covered her face, making her appear mysterious and elegant. The originally noisy performance hall instantly quietened down, and everyone held their breath as their eyes focused on Zhou Manzhen.
