Chapter 13: Chapter 13 Absolute Talent

Chapter 13 -13 Absolute Talent

Lu Qianrou truly felt that Lu Sheng had gone mad.

She initially thought that she would show a face of panic and embarrassment, asking the host if there had been some mistake.

Unexpectedly, she neither argued nor refused, and just went up on stage like that.

What was she doing up there? Did she really plan to pretend and play the piano?

Although it was surprising, Lu Qianrou quickly thought that this way, Lu Sheng would definitely make a fool of herself in front of so many people, and she couldn’t help feeling secretly delighted.

So many eyes were watching.

Once tonight’s banquet ended, the story of this countryside illegitimate daughter of the Lu Family making a public fool of herself would spread all over Jiang City’s upper circles, becoming gossip and laughing material for those ladies and misses.

From now on, everyone would surely treat her as a joke.

“Qianrou, what’s going on,” Lu Jingyan took a deep breath and quickly looked towards Lu Qianrou. “Lu Sheng told the Fu Family that she was also going to perform on the piano? Did you know about this?”

“I don’t know, it must be a mistake by the host.” Lu Qianrou also pretended to be anxious, “What should we do, big brother? Lu Sheng can’t play the piano at all.”

“I don’t know what she was thinking, being called up and she actually dared to go on stage. If she makes a fool of herself in public later, wouldn’t our Lu Family’s face be completely lost?”

Lu Jingyan was also worried, but in just a short while, Lu Sheng had already walked onto the stage.

But to go up now and pull her down saying there was a mistake, it’s always better than letting Lu Sheng make a fool of herself by playing nonsense later.

Lu Jingyan was just preparing to go up and explain, but then he saw Lu Sheng, who had turned around on the stage, suddenly wink at him.

“—Big brother, don’t worry.”

Lu Jingyan understood a bit of lip-reading, so he understood this silent sentence from Lu Sheng, and he couldn’t help being stunned.

Lu Sheng turned her gaze back and after sitting down on the chair, she looked up at the audience.

“My sister played a rather deep piece just now, so I will play a more cheerful piece for everyone.”

“Then I shall… show my humble skills now.”

Lu Sheng did not say much. As her words fell, she lowered her head and placed her hands on the piano keys.

Ding ding dong dong ding ding dong.

When the first few notes of the first measure came out, Lu Qianrou’s eyes widened instantly, and some of the guests who understood piano also looked up in shock.

Is this really… “Summer Forest”?

A masterpiece by Osborne, the most famous pianist in the UK this century, known for showing off skills.

Upon its release, it was unanimously recognized within the industry as devilishly difficult to play. Although the piece is cheerful and joyful, the speed is extremely fast.

When Osborne himself performed it, his hands moved so quickly over the piano keys, almost leaving afterimages, dazzling people so much that they couldn’t even see which keys he pressed.

People with less than ten years of piano learning and practicing experience simply couldn’t play this piece completely and accurately, and even if they somehow managed to finish, they would definitely make many mistakes.

Such a difficult piece was rarely chosen for performance—even the highest level piano exams wouldn’t use such pieces.

How could this Lu Sheng dare…

No, how could she play this piece?

And even without any sheet music?!

Lu Qianrou was stunned on the spot.

Without the sheet music, she couldn’t even play the simplest first measure of this piece, and yet she was a Grade 10 pianist!

How could… how could this Lu Sheng really know how to play the piano? Where would she have the money to learn something like this?

Lu Qianrou forced herself to stay calm.

Tang Yiyi’s eyes widened, “Lu Sheng plays the piano even better than Qianrou, how is that possible??” fгeewebnovёl.com

“She was raised in the countryside, right? Aren’t those rural people supposed to just farm every day and can’t afford schooling? How could she possibly play the piano, let alone play so well?”

Not to mention strangers, even Lu Jingyan was shocked.

When Lu Sheng returned to his side after stepping down from the stage, Lu Jingyan took a deep breath and asked, “…Lu Sheng, how do you know how to play the piano? Who taught you?”

“A sister lived in our village for a year,” Lu Sheng just attributed it to her past self, “She was very good at playing the piano and liked me a lot, so she taught me how to play.”

“You mean… you never had formal piano lessons, just that sister taught you, and you reached this level in only one year?”

Lu Sheng nodded.

Lu Jingyan was even more speechless.

Lu Jingyan, as the heir of the Lu Family, was also cultivated in various skills from a young age. His piano skill was also high, but he hadn’t had much time to play since he took over the Lu Group.

Not to mention how skilled the sister Lu Sheng mentioned was, just consider Lu Sheng herself.

How many people in the country could master the piano to such an extent within a year, and even perfectly perform a difficult piece like “Summer Forest”?

What kind of talent is this?

Lu Jingyan had always thought that Lu Qianrou was the most talented he had ever seen.

Starting piano lessons at six years old, she participated in numerous piano competitions large and small throughout her childhood and always won first place. He had always been proud of this younger sister.

However, in front of absolute talent, Lu Qianrou’s former brilliance dimmed significantly.

As Lu Jingyan watched Lu Sheng intently, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration, Lu Qianrou felt like she was running out of breath.

How could her brother look so warmly at a country bumpkin illegitimate girl when he previously only had eyes for his one sister?

Lu Qianrou took a deep breath, suddenly leaned on Lu Jingyan, gasping and trembling, “Big brother, my heart suddenly feels so uncomfortable…”
