Chapter 184:
After sending the private message, Qiu Qianwei returned to her secluded mountain-top villa, practicing the piano at home while waiting for a reply from the "Piano God".
Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day before the concert.
Qiu Qianwei was eagerly anticipating, but still hadn't received a reply from the "Piano God".
She felt quite frustrated about it, but then again, she thought it was understandable.
The "Piano God" had so many fans; he must have received a lot of private messages.
With so many messages, it wasn't possible to read each one.
And even if he read them, he might not believe one of them was from Qiu Qianwei.
After all, her account was newly registered and not officially verified.
During this time, Qiu Qianwei didn't forget about her previous agreement with Wang Haoran. She arranged for someone to send five tickets to Wang Haoran for her concert.
...
After receiving the tickets, Wang Haoran immediately informed Xu Muyan, Qin Yunhan, Mu Zhaozhao, and Wen Jing. He arranged to attend and see Qiu Qianwei's concert with them.
The concert was held at Qingling Stadium.
Outside the stadium, promotional posters featured Qiu Qianwei.
On the posters were some statements from Qiu Qianwei herself.
Simply put, Qiu Qianwei wanted to invite the "Piano God" as a special guest to her concert and hoped that those who knew the "Piano God" would pass on the message.
Driving his Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Wang Haoran brought Xu Muyan and the others to the destination.
He was surprised to see this poster. He became popular on the short video platform, gaining 5 million followers in just a few days and he knew it.
But he didn't know Qiu Qianwei was paying attention to him.
But regardless, this didn't conflict with his original plans; instead, it was even more convenient for him.
There was half an hour left before the concert started.
It took some time for people to arrive.
The main audience for the piano concert included parents accompanying their children. It also included elegant people with good musical literacy, and Qiu Qianwei's fans...
Compared to the brain-dead fans of other celebrities, the audience at the concert seemed quieter and more peaceful.
However, among these fans, there were also some strange figures.
They all had one common feature: they wore paper masks.
"What's up with these people wearing paper masks?" Mu Zhaozhao, holding a cup of popcorn, asked in confusion.
"Silly girl, what have you been doing at home these days? Can't you see?" Qin Yunhan complained to her friend.
"Practicing calligraphy, eating, watching dramas, hmm... and sleeping." Mu Zhaozhao was living the typical life of a shut-in.
"You're really old-fashioned. Don't you watch shorts? If you just checked TikTok, you'd know why," Qin Yunhan said.
"What's going on? Are paper masks trendy lately?" Mu Zhaozhao wondered.
"It's not that wearing paper masks is trendy lately; it's because there's a piano god on TikTok who's been very popular lately. He always wears a paper mask when he appears, so they're obviously imitating him," Xu Muyan interjected.
"Is the Piano God handsome?" Mu Zhaozhao asked, stuffing a handful of popcorn into her mouth.
"You're being silly eating popcorn. If he's wearing a paper mask, he hasn't shown his face, so who knows if he's handsome?" Qin Yunhan said disdainfully, then speculated, "But in my opinion, since the so-called Piano God doesn't show his face, he must be an ugly duckling!"
"That's right, if he were really handsome, he would have shown his face," Xu Muyan agreed with Qin Yunhan's opinion for the first time.
Wen Jing didn't say much, just smiled and indicated her agreement with this view.
On the side, Wang Haoran listened to the group's discussion and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
During this time, he spent most of his time practicing piano at home for the concert. He hadn't interacted much with Xu Muyan and the others.
Except for Yang Jingwan, the others didn't know he was the "Piano God".
Of course, Wang Haoran didn't explain either.
Anyway, they'd discover it soon enough.
As the five chatted, they quickly entered the stadium and found their seats assigned according to the tickets.
It turned out that Qiu Qianwei was quite thoughtful; all five tickets were front row tickets and near each other.
Wang Haoran glanced at the seats and sat in seat number 8.
Seat number 8 was right in the middle of five consecutive seats.
Therefore, Xu Muyan and Qin Yunhan, the two love rivals, didn't argue. They quickly sat on both sides of Wang Haoran.
Mu Zhaozhao currently only felt friendly towards Wang Haoran and didn't have any admiring feelings, so she naturally wouldn't fight to sit next to him.
Wen Jing was too easygoing and didn't want to cause trouble for Wang Haoran, so she sat quietly across from him.
"A few beautiful ladies, what a coincidence. Are you also here to watch my seventh sister's concert?" Lin Chen suddenly appeared from somewhere, smiling at Xu Muyan and the others.
Wang Haoran saw Lin Chen suddenly appear, but he wasn't surprised.
Considering Qiu Qianwei hadn't shown up yet, there were already three female protagonists here.
With so many female protagonists present, could the male protagonist be missing out?
"Kid, it's you." Xu Muyan and Mu Zhaozhao politely greeted Lin Chen and ignored him.
Qin Yunhan and Wen Jing didn't speak directly.
But Lin Chen's enthusiasm didn't diminish. "A few beautiful ladies, what happened with the magic show last time was purely accidental. This time, we..."
"Kid, are you still thinking about continuing the bet from last time? Your sister hasn't admitted defeat yet," Xu Muyan interrupted him.
"Not that," Lin Chen shook his head and said, "During the concert later, my sister and I will have a four-hand piano performance as the finale, and I hope you'll give me a round of applause."
"You can actually play the piano!" Xu Muyan, Mu Zhaozhao, Qin Yunhan, and Wen Jing couldn't help but look at Lin Chen curiously.
"Of course, and my level isn't lower than my sister's." Lin Chen grinned.
Xu Muyan, Mu Zhaozhao, Qin Yunhan, and Wen Jing naturally didn't believe him and just smiled dismissively.
Seeing this, the smile on Lin Chen's little face became even more obvious.
This four-hand piano performance was something he begged Qiu Qianwei for.
Even Qiu Qianwei thought Lin Chen had just started learning.
And what Lin Chen wanted was to create this kind of effect.
'You think I'm bronze, but I'm a king. When it's time for the real performance, I'll definitely astonish everyone with my performance and steal the show.'
On the side, Wang Haoran couldn't help but smirk at Lin Chen's proud expression.
With nearly eight thousand spectators at the concert and four female leads present, would this kind of performance be enough for Lin Chen?
