Chapter 77: The Tycoon Also Plays the Violin

Chapter 77: The Tycoon Also Plays the Violin

Yun Shuiyao and Wen Yi had both left with their injuries.

But... what about the opening performance?

Just as everyone was in a frenzy, Si Mohan appeared out of nowhere, "Yun Mu said she can take over."

Yun Mu, who had just finished watching the dogfight and was about to leave, looked bewildered. What was she supposed to do?

Si Mohan gave a sly smile, somehow producing a violin, "Yun Mu, you claim there's nothing you can't do, right? Why don't you replace the opening act and play the violin?"

"Yes, Miss Yun, it's your turn!"

Almost everyone present locked their gaze on Yun Mu.

Tonight was filled with big names, if she messed up, Yun Mu would likely lose face in the capital.

If she performed perfectly, it would save the show.

"What? You're not daring enough?" Si Mohan taunted Yun Mu.

Yun Mu rubbed her forehead, then looked at Si Mohan, "If I complete the opening performance, will you stop bothering me from now on?"

Si Mohan scoffed, "Sure, but your performance must at least surpass Wen Yi's."

Surpass Wen Yi?

Wen Yi was a world-class musician; one would need to be an extraordinary master to outdo her.

This kid really knew how to set impossible tasks!

But for the sake of peace in her future, she would temporarily let these mortals witness the stunning performance of a true master!

And... give Mr. Huo a surprise.

She grabbed the violin and agreed.

"Alright, it's a deal!"

Watching Yun Mu leave proudly with the violin, someone asked Si Mohan curiously.

"Mr. Si, does Yun Mu really know how to play the violin?"

Si Mohan sneered, "Hell no! When she wasn't crazy, she was known among the capital's heiresses for being tone-deaf. She couldn't even sing a children's song without going off-key, let alone play the violin?"

He wanted to see that arrogant woman humiliated!

Everyone turned pale!

Wasn't she just pretending to be confident earlier?

It seemed tonight's school anniversary performance was doomed.

But it was for the best, letting that arrogant Yun Mu taste the scorn of others.

At 7:30 PM, the school anniversary opened on time in the grand auditorium.

Huo Tingying and Yun Heshu exchanged glances, each giving a light scoff before taking their seats.

After the principal's speech and the host's announcements, Yun Mu walked out from backstage.

At this moment, the stage lights had dimmed, and only when Yun Mu reached the center did a soft beam of light pour down.

The girl in her moon-white chiffon dress, with her long hair cascading down, stood under the warm white light, breathtakingly beautiful.

Her face was veiled by a white mask, her long lashes lightly lowered, making her seem mysterious like a goddess from Greek mythology.

Too beautiful.

That was the unanimous reaction of all the guests.

Huo Tingying's eyes narrowed slightly from his seat in the VIP section.

How could he not know that the little woman could perform a solo violin piece?

At that moment, the girl on stage winked at him lightly before positioning the bow correctly on the strings.

Si Mohan scoffed softly.

This woman sure knew how to put on a show!

However, the next instant, as the bow gently brushed the strings, a melodious tune poured out.

Yun Heshu's cold expression cracked slightly at that moment.

Born into the Yun family, he had been exposed to music since childhood and possessed basic appreciation skills.

He remembered his sister Yun Mu never having any musical talent, singing off-key and playing out of tune. But the girl on stage didn't just know how to play the violin; her skill level surpassed international masters, reaching the pinnacle of perfection!

Now, he was truly becoming more interested in this sister.

The heavenly melody echoed throughout the vast auditorium, lingering in the rafters.

Si Mohan's eyes bulged, nearly losing his footing.

Ho... How could it be?

He clearly remembered Yun Mu had no musical talent since childhood, so how could she play the violin?

And why did she play so well?

Right now, the young master of the Si family had ten thousand whys in his mind, feeling that this woman was truly his nemesis by birth.

As for Huo Tingying, he was likely the calmest and most captivated among everyone.

He had always known how outstanding this woman was, always delivering pleasant surprises.

But it was rare to see her so immersed, showing a serene and beautiful side.

Her beautiful eyes slightly closed, putting away her fierce and aggressive demeanor, she stood on the stage, as graceful as a painting.

Her strings were plucking at his heartstrings.

It made his heart surge with passion, boiling with an unbearable fervor, wishing he could immediately take her away, not allowing anyone else to see her in such a stunning light.

When the piece ended, the final note reverberated in the air.

The girl on the stage put down her violin and bowed elegantly to the audience.

Instantly, the teachers and students who were entranced by this auditory feast came to their senses, clapping together, their applause like thunder.

Many boys started whistling, filled with suggestive intent.

The principal, who had been observing the reactions, stood up with good judgment and said to Huo Tingying, "President Yi, who do you think should deliver these flowers?"

Huo Tingying glanced at the principal, stood up, and took the bouquet.

The audience, which had been cheering, fell silent instantly.

When they saw the President of the Emperor Group, dressed in a suit, exuding an aura of nobility and restraint, personally going on stage to present flowers to Yun Mu, after a brief silence, they whispered excitedly among themselves.

"Goodness! This is the President of the Emperor Group, how handsome! Even more handsome than the eldest young master of the Yun family!"

"Most importantly, such a handsome man is giving flowers to Yun Mu, I'm so envious..."

"Yun Mu is married, is this okay? Goodness! If it were me, I'd have an affair too, with such a handsome man!"

...

At this moment, Yun Shuiyao and Wen Yi hurried from the infirmary to witness this scene.

That god-like man, the President of the Emperor Group, slowly walked toward the stage, presenting flowers to Yun Mu in front of everyone.

And naturally, he took the violin from her hands.

Yun Mu received the flowers with a smile, winking at him...

Huo Tingying lowered his head, his lips curling upward, whispering near Yun Mu's ear, "Tonight... your music was beautiful."

Yun Mu's enchanting eyes looked at Huo Tingying with a raised eyebrow, "Just the music?"

"You, are also beautiful."

Below the stage, exclamations rose and fell.

To the audience, this scene looked like the President of the Emperor Group leaning in to kiss the girl on the stage.

But Huo Tingying paid no heed to the gazes of everyone below, directly taking Yun Mu's hand and walking off the stage, heading backstage...

Yun Shuiyao's chest heaved violently.

Such an honor, such a moment of glory, was originally meant for her, but now it had once again been snatched away by that wretched Yun Mu!

How could she bear it?
