Chapter 408: Chapter 407: A Midsummer Night’s Dream
An Nan faced the stage and spoke to Huo Bingxuan, then turned back with a smile to the man beside her. Seeing the slightly worried look in his eyes, she smiled and said, "How about I play a piece for you?"
At this moment, Lin Mubai’s dark eyes were filled only with the beautiful woman in front of him. He gently opened his mouth, "I never knew you could play the piano."
An Nan continued smiling and nodded, "Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve played. I don’t even know if I still can."
Lin Mubai wore the same smile, "Wife, don’t worry. Even if you don’t play well, I will still like it." Because it’s a piece you played for me. Meanwhile, he began to look forward to what she would play next.
In the spotlight of the public, An Nan slowly walked toward the stage.
Her calm and poised demeanor fell into the eyes of Lin Haotian and his wife, bringing forth a sense of admiration and pride. The pride was because such a wonderful woman belonged to their son, and the admiration was for her inherent charisma and strength. Lin Haotian was further convinced in his heart that the person his son chose must not be as simple as she appears. It’s just not clear how extraordinary she really is and whether she would pose a threat to the Lin Family.
Amid everyone’s attention, An Nan calmly walked to Huo Bingxuan’s side on stage.
She gently nodded to her, "Miss Huo just played Mendelssohn’s ’A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ beautifully. I’ll choose this piece to play for my boyfriend."
As soon as An Nan finished speaking, she was met immediately with a snort of disdain from the other party. Of course, Huo Bingxuan would not show her contempt overtly in front of everyone. She looked at An Nan with eyes full of encouragement, "Then, Miss An, congratulations on your successful performance."
How could someone who learned piano as a hobby compare with someone like her, who’s a true graduate of a music conservatory?
An Nan calmly took her seat in front of the pristine piano. At this moment, the banquet hall was already silent, not a single person spoke.
When her first slender finger touched the black and white keys, a melodious piano sound instantly filled everyone’s ears. At the same time, Huo Bingxuan, who had just stepped off the stage, suddenly had a stiffened expression, her dark eyes fixed on the purple figure on stage with a trace of disbelief. She was a music major and could naturally hear that the person on stage had exceptional piano skills, even far superior to herself, a top conservatory graduate.
The next moment, her heart was filled with intense hatred. Why, why did she already take away the man she loved the most, and now even her proudest talent was easily shattered by her?
Huo Boxuan stepped up at the right moment, gently embracing her in his arms, "Bingxuan, let it go, Lin Mubai is not the right person for you. You will meet the one truly meant for you."
However, Huo Bingxuan couldn’t hear anything. Her gaze, filled with hatred, remained fixed on the woman at the piano, with everything else blank in her mind.
Before An Nan finished her piece, the doors of the banquet hall were forcefully pushed open from outside, drawing everyone’s attention, except for An Nan on stage and Lin Mubai, who was attentively listening to his wife’s performance.
In Young Master Lin’s world, at this moment, everything around him had become irrelevant. His eyes and heart were solely focused on the person on stage.
Beautiful, for the first time, he realized how beautiful his wife was. It’s just a pity that he couldn’t loudly declare his ownership.
