Black Lotus - Chap 29
Gu Yansheng climbed the stairs quickly, listening to the sound of the piano getting closer and closer, but he suddenly stopped at the door.
Looking at the familiar silhouette wearing a white shirt and playing the piano, he froze in his place as if he had seen the former Shen Luoan playing a song while waiting for him to come home.
He took a step forward saying blankly: “Luoan?”
Gu Yansheng came back to his senses when the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, feeling annoyed that he lost his temper with Wen Niannan’s piano just now.
“Who allowed you to touch that piano?”
Wen Niannan was startled by Gu Yansheng’s angry voice, he stood up.
Gu Yansheng approached him with a gloomy face pushing Wen Niannan away.
“Who allowed you to touch it? What right do you have to touch it! You want to destroy it, isn’t it?”
Wen Niannan had never seen such a terrifying expression on Gu Yansheng, he hurriedly explained: “Sorry, I didn’t know it was so important to you. I…”
“Shut up, people like you aren’t qualified to play it, disgusting!”
Wen Niannan stood there with a pale face, suddenly recalling the two letters that he saw a moment ago…LS…
It turns out that the piano was Shen Luoan’s, no wonder why he was so nervous.
Gu Yansheng remembered the piano he saw in the living room downstairs and said annoyed: “You were who put the piano downstairs? You, the one who copies other people’s efforts aren’t worthy to play. Even if you try to imitate him, you’re just a cold-hearted person, vicious and a disgusting third party!”
“…I wasn’t trying to imitate anyone.” Wen Niannan’s voice was trembling, he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
Who was imitating? Shen Luoan?
Gu Yansheng grabbed Wen Niannan by the collar while looking carefully at the shirt he was holding with his hand. He gritted his teeth asking: ” Do you dare to say that you aren’t copying him. Where these clothes came from? Who gave them to you?”
“I found these clothes in the closet. I don’t know who put them there.”
Those clothes were placed in his closet on the first day he arrived there. He thought it was Gu Yansheng who left them for him, so he wore them with joy but he didn’t expect that these were Shen Luoan’s clothes.
Listening to Wen Niannan’s presumptuous lies made Gu Yansheng even more nauseous.
“Go and throw away the piano you brought, you won’t be allowed to play the piano again in the future! Never, you don’t have the skills for that! Do you understand?”
“Niannan?” Tang Shuo’s voice dragged him back from his memories.
“Huh? What’s wrong?”
“Do you want to try it?” Tang Shuo looked at him mysteriously.
“No, don’t bother the clerk, I don’t want to play.” With a sad feeling, he turned around to leave.
Suddenly Tang Shuo held his hand, Wen Niannan frightened by the sudden contact, quickly broke free.
“Ah, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it, I forgot that you don’t like to be touch by people.” Tang Shuo quickly apologized scratching his head embarrassedly.
“It’s okay, you don’t have to apologize.”
“Niannan, would you like to go to the music studio I run, it’s on the street in front.”
“No, I should go back soon.”
“I bought a batch of musical instruments a few days ago. Among them is a piano by Robert, a famous foreign pianist. Would you like to see it?”
Wen Niannan was speechless, it took him a long time before Tang Shuo heard the reply he wanted.
“Okay.”
Tang Shuo knew that Wen Niannan liked that pianist very much. He spent all his savings just to buy that piano. The money for the other instruments would come from his brother.
But when he saw Wen Niannan’s eyes lighting up while looking at the piano, he knew it was worth everything he had done.
