Chapter 233 (2/2)

A long white ribbon of gauze had been tied to a pillar on the second floor at some point, and a woman in a fluttering white dress gripped the ribbon with one hand as she stood gazing down.

The woman, whose face was covered with a thin veil, pulled the ribbon and jumped down, swinging over to the hall on the first floor. When she was about to reach the stage, she released her hand and her body lightly leaped steadily above.

Everyone held their breath, unable to recover from the scene just now.

The graceful, lithe woman had swung down from the second floor, just like a fairy falling from the sky, so beautiful! However, it was too dangerous ah!

The fairy’s eyes curved slightly as she opened her mouth, and a beautiful voice just like an oriole declared, “My topic today is, whoever can keep pace with my tune and perform a song together with me, I will chat with them for an hour.”

After the woman finished speaking, she suddenly turned a few times like a swallow, and with raised hands, she started to beat the musical instruments on both sides of the stage.

While dancing lightly, she wandered flexibly among the various instruments; the melody was as though it was from heaven.

Everyone was fascinated by her. When the melody started the second time, a qin suddenly sounded from a private room on the second floor, perfectly blending with the woman’s chiming, making the already heavenly sound even more magical.

Lady Qiangwei’s lips underneath the veil opened gently as she suddenly sang a tune.

There were no vulgar lyrics, just soft humming, and that light, melodious oriole-like voice could easily capture the heart of everyone who heard it.

After the song was finished, everyone had yet to return from the feeling of hearing celestial music from the highest heaven. When they finally returned to their senses, the fairy on stage was already gone.

“Wonderful! Wonderful ah! It’s worth dying to hear Lady Qiangwen playing such a song!

“Really like a fairy, such a well-deserved name. Even people like me who don’t understand music can be intoxicated!”

Madam Zhang saw that everyone couldn’t heap enough praises on. She was so happy that her old face bloomed like a flower. She hurriedly came out to close the show. “Gentlemen, this is the end of today’s performance by Drunken Moon’s Lady Qiangwei. As for the gentleman who played the song from second floor just now, Lady Qiangwei has already gone to see him. I apologize, these gentlemen can only wait until next month.”

In fact, Nan Xun, who had just finished her work, didn’t immediately go to see the class-A guest in the private room, but went back to her room first instead.

Little Eight’s praises were just like water from the Yellow River. “Dear da, your acting skill becomes better and better! Just look at those men, they’re all slobbering like good-for-nothings, you’re such a terrible hussy~”

Nan Xun smiled and chuckled. “Have I not seen a pig run even if I haven’t eaten pork before? I have seen many of these things before, and now I’m only using a small part of it.” [T/N: Even if you don’t have any experience on doing something, but at least you have seen others doing it, ex: TV]

If it wasn’t for the task, Little Eight really wanted to see what other flowers Nan Xun could conjure up. [T/N: skill]

Not long later, Madam Zhang rushed over. “Aiyo, my little ancestor, why don’t you go see the guest ah?”

Nan Xun pulled the light gauze off her face to breathe and said angrily, “Is it that Young Master Qi again?”

Madam Zhang had looked at this beautiful face countless times, but she still couldn’t help but stare in awe.

Seeing the other party’s unwillingness, Madam Zhang quickly persuaded, “What’s wrong with this Young Master Qi? He looks like a genius. He also gives out extravagant amounts of money. If you can make money from talking with him, why not? Besides, you promised this yourself, you can’t break your own promise ah.”

Nan Xun glanced at her. “I know. Madam Zhang, can you give me a whole roasted chicken to fill my stomach? I’m afraid I will faint from hunger while chatting with him later.”

Madam Zhang’s mouth twitched when she heard this.
