He couldn’t seem to get through the fog which blurred his memories.
He was probably five years old at that time. He had been at the piano with someone in his arms, the person had seemed younger than him, her little head moving about looking very mischievous. He had held onto her finger, allowing her to remember the notes one by one.
“Momo, playing the piano is boring, let’s find Wilson, it’s fun chasing after his dog.”
“We can go after we are done.”
“It’ll be too late after we are done and I still have to climb the walls back.”
“There’s curry rice for after we are done. Think about it yourself, are you going to play with Wilson or are you going to stay here with me to eat curry rice?”
He heard his own cold voice, making that person decide.
That little head had inched forward for a second before lifting up. “I want to eat the curry rice, but it isn’t fun to keep playing the piano.”
“Let’s take a break. We can play Super Mario, but tomorrow during this hour, you are not allowed to visit Wilson’s house. You have to come over and learn to play the piano. Little girls are supposed to learn how to play the piano and from today onwards, you have to learn well and you are not allowed to play with the English kids next door. Do you understand?”
At the end, his voice had come through abruptly, sending a piercing ache through his head and forcing Qin Mo to stop all his actions. Even though he didn’t move anymore, the paleness on his beautiful face was enough for Bo Jiu to know he was in pain.
With the perfect finishing note, Bo Jiu turned and asked in a low voice, “Brother Mo?”
The sharp pain pierced through his mind.
Qin Mo’s long and slender fingers pressed onto his temples. “It’s nothing.”
With that, he forced himself up. He stood tall and upright. He turned and when he saw the youngster’s furry head. He had the urge to caress it.
And that’s what he did. “You played well.”
The sudden closeness made Bo Jiu pause, the warmth on her head was obvious, it was just like back then, an action he had often done when they were younger. When his smell enveloped her senses, she felt warm and touched.
Bo Jiu glanced up at the Almighty, her gaze deep. She broke into a smile and punched his shoulders lightly. “You ain’t too bad yourself.”
This scene was exceptionally nourishing as they clearly had a close relationship.
It was just like a scene from a manga.
The audience broke into a standing ovation for their perfect duet.
Amongst them was an English man with a wine glass in his hand. When he turned to place his attention on the youngster, his eyes were glowing.
He turned towards the assistant beside him agitatedly. “Find out who exactly that Eastern youngster is! He fits the character perfectly! Gosh! It feels as though I have just met the real life version of Miù sī.
“Yes, Sir. I will find out immediately.”
In reality, they had only decided to participate in his dinner at the last minute after an investor had invited them over.
He hadn’t expected to be pleasantly surprised.
In order to find someone suited for the role, the director had visited around ten different acting schools in China, but there hadn’t been anyone who had caught his eye.
There was one the director had listed as a backup.
He was of Movie King status, but even so, the director hadn’t been satisfied.
It was until the appearance of this youngster…
The assistant had never seen the director so agitated before. Therefore, his youngster must have fit the bill perfectly for him to be acting in such a manner.
The director had caught sight of Movie Queen An when she entered the ballroom and had planned to seek her help to contact the youngster.
Neither of them had looked for the other as their aim was to search for an actor in secret.
They hadn’t wanted anyone to recognize them.
Since the English director was internationally renowned, it would definitely blow up if the media caught news of him and that would hinder their efforts in trying to search for a suitable actor.
That was how the English director felt. He turned towards the youngster with the devilish grin. He was perfect! Once he was done with his makeup, his hair was dyed black, and he wore a Chinese long robe, this mysterious Asian youngster in front of the piano would give off the illusion of a different era.
This person was perfect because he possessed an angelic appearance while radiating a devilish aura.
It would be a pity if such a person didn’t join the entertainment industry!
The English director basked in his joy from the unexpected finding.
He hadn’t expected anyone in this gathering to have seen his photo or for anyone to try so hard just to speak to him though.
That person wasn’t anyone foreign, it was Yi Sihuo.
Once the piano duet was over, Yi Sihuo would just be humiliated if he followed with another piece.
Hence, before the duet ended, Yi Sihuo had already left the area and because he had squeezed out from the crowd, he had managed to bump into the director.
He seemed they have risen from the depths because it didn’t matter even if his future with Movie Queen An had been sealed off.
Now that the director was here, he just had to follow behind tightly and fend for himself, there would definitely be an opportunity for him!
Yi Sihuo had always been someone who took the initiative. Thus, after he had considered the situation, he followed behind the leaving English director.
On the other hand, Movie Queen An, who was a close friend of the director, had caught sight of He Honghua right before the duet had begun. She decided to seize the opportunity, walking forward with a smile. “My son has always had high standards, but after he met Jiu, he has changed for the better. It must have been Madam He’s good upbringing to have nurtured a kid like Jiu, who isn’t the least bit afraid of a prickly ice block like my son. In the past, there have been many people who wanted to befriend Qin Mo, but they all carried an ulterior motive. Jiu isn’t like them. I was startled when Qin Mo had brought him home since my son has never treated anyone this well, but Jiu is an exception, he is both dashing and likeable. My son was probably wondering how there could be someone more handsome than him. That is probably how the two of them became friends. On hindsight, all of it seems so special and mythical.”
He Honghua was startled when Movie Queen An started speaking to her. She had never expected the Movie Queen in front of her to be Qin Mo’s mother.
The more she spoke, the more she saw Movie Queen An in a different light. Movie Queen An was definitely unlike all the other wealthy ladies she had encountered.
How should she put it? This woman had perfected the art of respectability, she was elegant, but not without character and wasn’t just acting based on her background. Instead, her actions seemed heartfelt, which made their interaction comfortable.
Movie Queen An had deliberately put her son down. She sighed deeply. “Madam He, even though my son looks tall and well built right now, he was a premature baby in the past and I haven’t been able to care for him well either.”
With that, the two mothers seemed to have found a common topic.
