Chapter 69: The Young Prince and the Princess
Because Su Yanran had only returned from abroad not too long ago.
Qin Tian didn’t know that Su Yanran played piano and only guessed from the fact that he saw the piano in the room.
After hearing what Wei Chengbin said earlier, he confirmed his guess.
But he still wanted to keep a low profile.
Although Qin Tian had max-level piano skills, he didn’t want to show off.
He also didn’t want to be bragging in front of Su Yanran to get her likes.
Even knowing that Su Yanran was the heroine, he still wouldn’t do it.
So saying that he knew how to play a little wasn’t a big problem.
But when Su Yanran interpreted it, it had a different meaning.
“Wow, Uncle Qin knows how to play the piano? I never knew that before?”
“Are you serious?”
Chen Mengmeng was in disbelief.
In their social circle, it was common to find rich second generations who knew how to play the piano.
Because of their wealthy backgrounds, most parents would send their children to learn some elegant instruments or sports to boost their reputation.
But it was rare to see the head of a wealthy family know how to play the piano.
Because the majority of their time had to be put into taking care of their business.
How could they find time to learn these skills mostly for pleasure?
Qin Tian didn’t care if Chen Mengmeng believed it or not.
He ignored her and looked back at Wei Chengbin.
Soon, Wei Chengbin’s first piece ended.
“Great…”
“Not bad, Chenbin’s quite good.”
“You are so talented.”
“Chengbin’s awesome!”
“Thank you, thank you!”
Feeling quite proud of himself, Wei Chengbin stood up and took a bow. He then walked to where Su Yanran was.
“Yanran, thank you for listening to my playing.”
“Although your skills are at most mediocre, I can still tell that you put in your maximum effort.”
Su Yanran said lightly.
“Really?!” Wei Chengbin wasn’t mad but excited, “Yanran, with your comment, I’m very satisfied.”
After all, he barely learned for a few months.
It would be incomparable to Su Yanran’s professional level of playing.
So, after getting a half-decent comment from Su Yanran, he was already very happy.
Su Yanran nodded and looked away.
She said to Qin Tian, “Since Uncle Qin knows how to play, then I’ll give it a try too.”
“Although my playing isn’t very good, I still want you to point out my mistakes!!”
“You are too humble, but if you want to play, I won’t stop you.”
“Really? Then I’ll go right ahead.”
Su Yanran was happy to hear that but didn’t show much on her face.
Under the looks of everyone in the room, she calmly walked to her piano.
She first turned the notes and became more focused as she was ready to play.
Tap~
Su Yanran started her piece.
The song that she played was called “The Young Prince and the Princess”.
The story was very old-fashioned. Simply about a princess falling in love with the prince, and later the prince protecting the princess.
It was a slow-moving piece with a wide range of notes, focusing mainly on the basics
Su Yanran’s piano skills were very good, and she had a good grasp of the fast and slow rhythms of this piece.
Much better than Wei Chengbin, who was barely a beginner.
Piano skills could be generally divided into seven rankings: beginner, intermediate, advanced, proficient, master, grandmaster, and godly.
Su Yanran’s skills could be considered between proficient and master.
Soon, Su Yanran elegantly finished off her piece.
She took a bow and got a loud round of applause from her audience.
Seeing this, Su Zhengyang and his wife smiled happily.
Elder Su was also overjoyed.
“Uncle Qin, how was it?”
Surrounded by cheers and applause, Su Yanran walked to Qin Tian, feeling very proud of herself.
In her mind, Qin Tian wouldn’t be even close to as professional as her and probably couldn’t tell much.
But for some reason, she just wanted Qin Tian’s acknowledgement.
“Haha, overall, it was pretty good.”
Qin Tian smiled lightly, “But you did choose a difficult one to prove your proficiency, so I did catch two tiny mistakes while you were playing.”
“Other than that, it was almost perfect.”
“…What?”
Hearing Qin Tian’s critiques, Su Yanran was frozen in place.
What is up with Uncle Qin?
“Yanran!”
Before she could say anything, Elder Su interrupted.
“What’s wrong, Grandpa?”
“You did play well just then, but among the guests, we have here today, we have a pianist who is much better…
“Oh, really?”
Su Yanran’s eyes flashed and looked toward Qin Tian, “Would that person be… Uncle Qin?”
Qin Tian just pointed out her mistakes!
She had all the reasons to back that the person must be Qin Tian.
However, Elder Su simply smiled and shook his head.
“Nope!”
Su Yanran was a little disappointed upon hearing this. “Grandpa, stop hiding from me, just tell us.”
“Who is that person?”
“Fine, fine. I’ll tell you who it is!”
Smiling, Elder Su looked towards Lin Feng standing in the crowd, “Lin Feng, if I remember correctly, you must be that person’s student.”
“So that kid is called Lin Feng?”
“So he does know Elder Su very well?”
“Is this Lin Feng guy the pianist?”
“No way!”
Everyone was surprised by what Elder Su said.
“I am, Grandpa Su!”
Lin Feng was feeling cocky but still remained calm.
He was the protagonist after all!
Even after continuously being stopped by some person, he still got his chance.
Elder Su nodded and said, “Then please let us all hear your music, and let my granddaughter hear what top-tier pianists sound like.”
He wanted to get Su Yanran and Lin Feng anyway.
After Lin Feng got here, he had been noticing what Lin Feng had been doing.
Before, when Qin Tian told everyone not to reveal their gifts, he was a little surprised.
But he didn’t think that Qin Tian did so on purpose.
Now, he wouldn’t give up on such a good opportunity.
Su Yanran didn’t like Lin Feng.
But since her grandpa wanted to, she couldn’t refuse.
Just as everyone was thinking about their own things, Lin Feng suddenly spoke, “Grandpa Su, I don’t think this would be the best.”
“Why? How come?”
Elder Su was confused.
He knew that his granddaughter’s favorite hobby was playing the piano.
He tried really hard to get Lin Feng to show off in front of his granddaughter.
How come this kid didn’t want to play it now?
“Grandpa Su, I saw that Su Yanran wanted to impress Mr. Qin just then, so I think Mr. Qin should go first.”
Lin Feng was being very polite, but he still couldn’t hide his urge to laugh.
Don’t you think you are so much better than me? I’m going to slap you first!
Piano? I have learned it since I’m five!
You, a businessman, will be no match against me!
