Chapter 130: Chapter 133: The True Genius_1
Yang Gang was about to punch the old foreigner when Yang Fei jumped in fright and quickly hugged Yang Gang from behind: "Gang, have you gone mad?"
After stopping Yang Gang from his aggression, Yang Fei hurried to the old foreigner and anxiously asked, "Um, master, are you alright?"
Huh?
Yang Gang was stunned. He pointed at the old foreigner, and meekly asked, "Feifei, is this old guy some kind of famous person?"
Yang Fei rolled her eyes wildly: "He might not be a popular celebrity, but you should definitely know him! He’s none other than your favorite international pianist, Master Husk."
Pfft!
Almost spit out a mouthful of blood did Yang Gang.
Holy moly, no need to play such a cruel joke!
Though I know the Goddess of Destiny can be pretty capricious, doing this to me is downright unreasonable.
I had just managed to reduce some of Yang Fei’s suspicions about me, and now I’m back to square one.
Just a while ago, Yang Gang had earnestly told Yang Fei that despite forgetting many things, he still loved piano music and Husk remained his favorite pianist.
But his recent behavior did not look anything like that of a loyal fan!!
Husk, who was on the ground, nearly spat out old blood when he heard that Yang Gang was a fan of his.
No joking please! If all his fans were like this, even having nine lives would not be enough for him!
Husk tried to get up but his face turned pale and he grabbed his waist, collapsing in pain once again.
Seeing this, Yang Fei jumped in fright: "Mas...Master, are you ok?"
The Husk Hangcheng concert was supposed to start tomorrow. Many of Husk’s fans had traveled from all around the country to see it. If something happened to Husk now that would...
Yang Fei felt that the fans would likely burn the Yang’s villa to the ground in their anger.
"My waist, feels like it’s twisted..." Husk said in agony.
"Ah, then let’s rush to the hospital," Yang Fei suggested.
Husk shook his head: "No need for a hospital, don’t want to cause a fuss. I can still manage to stand."
Having said that, Husk slowly attempted to stand while rubbing his waist.
"Master, how do you feel?" queried a nervous Yang Fei.
Husk gently swayed and moved his fingers, saying, "My fingers are not injured; I can still play the piano. But..."
He paused and gave a wry smile: "However, I can’t sit for long. The concert tomorrow night is supposed to last over three hours."
"Then what should we do?" Yang Fei asked.
Yang Gang suddenly had an idea, saying, "Feifei, why not help Master during the concert. I’ve seen many pianists bring their students on stage during concerts. They take turns to perform, allowing the pianist to get some rest. After all, many renowned pianists are quite old and their bodies can’t withstand the strain."
He paused and grinned: "The mistake your brother made, the sister has to take responsibility, right?"
Yang Fei glared at Yang Gang: "What nonsense are you talking about? Husk is a top international pianist. How am I qualified to perform at such a master’s concert?"
At this moment, Husk suddenly spoke: "Uh, Miss Fei, could I hear you play the piano?"
"This..." Yang Fei looked hesitant.
Yang Gang chimed in again: "Fei Fei, as a piano fan, you should understand how the fans feel. If Master Husk has to cancel his concert due to his health, it will break the hearts of all the fans who came from all over the country. Plus, since this time it’s my fault, you’re just helping me out. How about it?"
Yang Fei pulled Yang Gang aside and whispered, "Gang, tell me the truth. Did you purposely knock Husk down to get me back into playing piano?"
"Well...all right, I admit it. I did it on purpose." Yang Gang confessed easily. He paused before adding, "Fei Fei, I don’t know why you gave up the piano, but I genuinely don’t want you to waste your talent."
"But..." Yang Fei bit her lip, appearing to struggle internally.
"Fei Fei, haven’t I helped you out a lot lately? Consider this payback," cajoled Yang Gang.
"Uh..." Yang Fei’s expression changed. Finally, she let out a sigh. "Fine, alright."
She returned to Husk’s side, "Master, let’s go inside first."
They entered Yang’s villa and moved to the piano room.
The modern piano in the room was quietly placed there. A maid was specifically responsible for its maintenance, so the piano, which had been ’dust-covered’ for years, still looked as good as new. However, it had lost its spirit.
"It looks like Miss Lin hasn’t played the piano for years." Husk examined the piano.
"Umm..." Yang Fei’s eyes flickered with unusual thoughts. She didn’t speak, but came straight to the piano and turned to Husk, "Master, what piece would you like me to play?"
"Whatever. Just play whatever you’d like." Husk said.
Yang Fei placed her fingers on the piano keys and after a slight hesitation, she lifted her right hand and then dropped it, and the piano sounded the first note.
Although it was just a single note, people were inexplicably taken aback, feeling as if every pore in their body had opened up.
With her eyes closed, Yang Fei’s fingers gracefully danced across the keys. From low notes sliding to highs, a rosy landscape was unveiled. Then from high notes slowly dropping, it was like scattered pearls, tiny yet gleaming. Sometimes it was like a gentle stream; sometimes, it was like a tidal wave, utterly captivating in its melodious charm.
"’Adelina by the Water’, this is a classic piece by the famous pianist Richard Claderman, one of the most romantically colored piano pieces in love songs, reflecting the heartache inspired by the disillusionment of love and the longing for beautiful love."
As Husk watched Yang Fei’s dancing fingertips on the keyboard, he lightly added, "Though her tunes are not yet mature, this child’s piano talent surpasses any so-called ’piano genius’ I’ve seen. Her potential is immeasurable. She is worthy of Debussy’s piano. Such a child is a real genius."
Yang Gang also looked at Yang Fei, " ’Adelina by the Water’ huh..."
His gaze flickered as if he was lost in thought.
After the song ended, Husk clapped first, "Miss Lin, your music is brilliant. Haven’t anyone told you before, your talent belongs to the world?"
Yang Gang chuckled, "Yes. When Feifei participated in the Vienna International Piano Competition at the age of 13, the comment made by Yimula, a world-renowned pianist and the judge of the youth group, was: ’This child is born for the arts, for the world.’"
"Oh, that old witch Yimula does know talent when she sees it," Husk candidly remarked.
Both Yang Gang and Yang Fei’s mouths twitched. It seemed that although Husk and Yimula were both top international pianists, they didn’t have a good relationship.
"Miss Lin, I respectfully invite you to perform with me on stage tomorrow evening, would that be acceptable?" Husk slightly bowed, extending an invitation.
"Umm..." Yang Fei hesitated a bit, then nodded, "It would be my honor."
Afterward, Yang Fei, Yang Gang, Husk, and Lin Qingyu left the piano room together. As they reached the front yard, Lin Qingyu suddenly ran, "Sis!"
Lin Yueyao appeared.
When Lin Yueyao saw Lin Qingyu, she was a bit surprised. Then a hint of panic flashed in her eyes, "Qingyu, I’m not working for the rich..."
"Sis, Feifei already told me everything. You’re now Yang Gang’s personal maid," Lin Qingyu laughed.
"Oh, Qingyu, being a personal maid doesn’t mean sleeping together." Lin Yueyao quickly clarified.
Pft!
Lin Qingyu laughed, "Sis, don’t be nervous. I was wrong. I shouldn’t lump all wealthy second generations together, especially some good ones. Um... like..."
Yang Gang smirked, "This girl Lin Qingyu does have a bit of a conscience."
Then, in the next moment, Young Master Yang’s face darkened.
"Like... the eldest son of the Huang family, Huang Tianlin. Tall, handsome, talented, and devoted." Lin Qingyu laughed and gave Yang Gang a challenging look after she finished speaking.
Yang Gang gritted his teeth, "This girl... I should’ve punished her that night, then talk."
Collecting his emotions, Yang Gang looked at Lin Yueyao, "Sister Yueyao, are you going out?"
"Yes, we’re out of salt at home. I am planning to go to the shopping mall at the foot of the mountain to buy some." Lin Yueyao explained.
Yang Gang thought for a while and then proposed, "Let’s go together. I also have something to do down the mountain."
Then, Yang Gang drove Lin Yueyao down the mountain.
Meanwhile, several luxury sports cars with Yanjing plates that had just left the Hangcheng freeway were heading towards the wealthy residential area of Hangcheng — the Poluo Mountain Villa District.
