Chapter 79: The Ball (4)

“Zhi...” An ear-piercing sound came out of the piano the moment Wei Cheng Long's fingers pressed down on the keys. Wei Cheng Long couldn't help but become startled, and he quickly stopped. After a moment of hesitation, he pressed on the keys again, but just the same, the ear-piercing sounds came out.

The ball attendees knitted their brows, their faces looked as though in pain. They've heard lots of piano pieces before but never something as ear-piercing as Wei Cheng Long's. They couldn't understand why Wei Cheng Long would dare to perform when he had such poor skill, wasn't he afraid of losing face? Wasn't his skin too thick?

Qin Yue, Zhao Ya and Hu Ke also couldn't help being shocked, this was clearly not the level of Wei Cheng Long's real skill, otherwise how could he have dared to challenge Ye Qian? Then the only explanation was that the piano was broken, but clearly when Ye Qian used it it was still fine, the most likely reason then was that Ye Qian had done something to the piano himself.

“You did this?” Qin Yue shot Ye Qian a glance and asked.

Ye Qian chuckled but did not reply. Even though his methods were a little low, it was harmless overall, if there was anyone to blame it was Wei Cheng Long who purposely looked for trouble. Qin Yue looked at him helplessly and didn't say anything anymore. Zhao Ya glared at Ye Qianfiercely and said, “You rogue, you're the shameless one.”

“Who's shameless, don't accuse me wrongly. If you won't fulfill your promise, fine, I don't want a dog to kiss me anyway.” Ye Qian said condescendingly.

“You stinking rogue! You scoundrel!” Zhao Ya said angrily.

Ye Qian acted like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of hot water, he looked at Zhao Ya in a provoking manner and said, “Then I'm a rogue, then I'm a scoundrel, what can you do to me.”

“Big Sister Yue, look, he's bullying me again.” Zhao Ya swung Qin Yue's arm like a spoiled child.

Qin Yue smiled helplessly and said, “This is a matter between the two of you, how can I intervene, the two of you should resolve it yourselves.

“You… Big Sister Yue, you're teaming up with this rogue to bully me. There is no human nature in the opposite s.e.x, boohoo!” Zhao Ya blinked her eyes hard, attempting to squeeze tears out of them, but it was not very effective.

Wei Cheng Long knew that even if his own skills were bad, the piano shouldn't sound like that, so the only explanation was that Ye Qiandamaged the piano. This fellow is too despicable, Wei Cheng Long thought to himself, the anger in his heart burned fiercely. Losing to Ye Qian was not so bad, but he had lost face in front of so many people and even in front of Qin Yue. Wei Cheng Long could not live this down.

After a hollow laugh, Wei Cheng Long stood up resentfully and then walked towards Qin Yue. Ye Qian leisurely swirled the wine gla.s.s in his hand, as if he were completely oblivious to the murderous looks Wei Cheng Long was giving him. Ye Qian never considered himself to be a person of n.o.ble character, he always thought of himself as a bad guy, and of course bad guys did shady things. Moreover, for Ye Qian, when going against the enemy, only the end result mattered, as long as he attained his results he wanted, the process didn't matter.

“Low-cla.s.s bad guys are all like this, they like to resort to shady tricks.” Wei Cheng Long said angrily while glaring at Ye Qian.

“Oh? Who are you talking about?” Ye Qian asked with a blank expression.

“I didn't say it was you, you're acting guilty yourself, there's nothing I can do about that.” Wei Cheng Long said.
