Chapter 600: Chapter 600: The Naive Youngster

However, just as everyone was immersed in the music, Xiao Zheng slightly furrowed his brow, for he had detected some flaws in the playing.

As someone with a high level of piano-playing skill, hearing these imperfections was like spotting a mouse dropping in a delicious pot of meat soup; it made his whole body intensely uncomfortable.

Therefore, Xiao Zheng appeared somewhat restless.

Fan Mingzhe had been observing Xiao Zheng carefully. Now, seeing Xiao Zheng’s expression, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought to himself, "Just now I was pondering how to use this piano recital to mock you for your lack of artistic cultivation, but you’ve walked right into it yourself, haha, excellent, excellent."

With that thought, a malicious smile appeared on Fan Mingzhe’s lips, and he casually said to Xiao Zheng with a faint smile, "Brother Xiao, you seem to be a bit displeased. What’s the matter, is the piano playing not to your liking?"

Although Fan Mingzhe’s voice was not loud, he had spent time in Hollywood and had done some study of singing; he knew how to project his voice to make it more penetrating.

So, even though he spoke softly, everyone nearby heard him. Immediately, they couldn’t help but turn their heads to look at Xiao Zheng, furrowing their brows.

Most of those who had come to listen to the piano performance were fans of the female pianist on stage. These fans, due to their own high levels of skill, had an extra firm belief in what they admired, seeing it as the ultimate in elegance and as the best proof of their own status. Now, hearing someone question their taste, how could they stand it?

Even Mr. and Mrs. Xiao glanced at Xiao Zheng very angrily. If you don’t understand, then you should just sit there quietly. Why fidget so much? Now look, you’ve become the center of attention!

Those who had come with Xiao Zheng felt embarrassed as well.

Xiao Zheng himself was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Fan Mingzhe and smiled. He could, of course, see that Fan Mingzhe was deliberately targeting him!

Xiao Yufei had already realized what was happening. Seeing those around them looking dissatisfied, she hurriedly came to Xiao Zheng’s defense, saying:

"How could that be? Xiao Zheng is just like that, a bit of ADHD, and feels very restless when he sits for too long, haha, but I’m sure this won’t bother everyone, right?"

Upon hearing this, everyone relaxed and turned their gaze away. After all, ADHD was a personal quirk and didn’t affect them. Staring at someone like that was not polite.

There were even a few who looked at Xiao Zheng with sympathy.

ADHD, that’s something children have. For an adult to still not have overcome it, that’s quite unfortunate.

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Damn it!

Police Beauty Xiao, are you trying to dig a hole for me or what?

Even if you’re helping someone out of an awkward situation, that’s no way to do it! Hey!

And just at that moment, Xiao Zheng saw Xiao Yufei casting him a triumphant look, her face clearly saying: Praise me, praise me, see how clever I am.

Xiao Zheng felt frustrated and at a loss for words.

At this moment, Fan Mingzhe was also feeling very frustrated. He had originally thought to take this fine opportunity to ridicule Xiao Zheng, but he had not expected Cheng Yaojin to come along and wreck his plans completely.

"It looks like I’ll have to wait for another opportunity, hmph, anyway, this piano recital will go on for a while, there will be plenty of chances!"

Fan Mingzhe’s eyes flashed a sinister light, for he had weathered the entertainment industry well, and it’s well known that the entertainment industry is the most ruthless place for scheming. Anyone who comes out of there is a wily fox.

In Fan Mingzhe’s view, ruining someone’s reputation was all too easy for him.

However, at this moment, an unexpected event suddenly occurred!

Xiao Zheng, unable to vent his overwhelming frustration, thought to himself that he absolutely couldn’t let the moniker of ADHD be pinned above his head, Lord Evil God. Therefore, he immediately shook his head at Xiao Yufei’s attempt to explain on his behalf and said:

"That’s not it."

Then he turned to Fan Mingzhe, "Just now, Brother Fan was quite right. This piano performance is indeed very, very good, but to my ears, it has a fatal flaw that makes it very uncomfortable to listen to."

Just as the matter was drawing to a close and everyone was turning their heads back to enjoy the music, Xiao Zheng’s sudden statement made every single person around freeze.

God damn it!

Daring to say my woman can’t play the piano well, kid, do you have a death wish?

Swish!

In an instant, countless gazes were directed at Xiao Zheng’s body. If looks could kill, Xiao Zheng would have died many times over by now.

"Young man, what you just said, do you dare to repeat it?" All of a sudden, a middle-aged man with a grim expression demanded.

The others were also nodding their heads, looking at Xiao Zheng with hostility in their eyes.

In their opinion, Xiao Zheng was just trying to attract attention, deliberately causing a scene here! They encounter several such people every year, and it didn’t surprise them, but they were indeed very angry.

And those who have the means to attend this concert have significant clout. At the moment, there were already people secretly deciding to use their power to properly teach Xiao Zheng a lesson.

At this time, Fan Mingzhe was ecstatic.

Brother Xiao, how can you be so cooperative with me? I’m almost embarrassed!

Fan Mingzhe laughed heartily in his heart, and then a vicious glint flickered in the depths of his eyes. He fanned the flames by saying:

"Brother Xiao, I must criticize you this time. I remember you are not familiar with the piano, right? Even if you may have exceptional musical talent, commenting on a field you’re unfamiliar with like this, isn’t that a bit inappropriate?"

Upon hearing Fan Mingzhe say this, the crowd grew even angrier, glaring at Xiao Zheng furiously.

So, it’s just a kid who doesn’t know the piano!

At this time, Mr. and Mrs. Xiao looked very upset too. Xiao Zheng had come with them, and now he had caused such an embarrassing incident; they had to share in the embarrassment.

For the two elderly people who valued face greatly, this was something they could not accept at all.

Even Xiao Yufei’s gaze towards Xiao Zheng held a hint of disappointment. Xiao Zheng’s behavior at this moment was indeed not good at all. It was like those kids who desperately wanted to prove themselves but had no skills, blabbering nonsense which only resulted in the audience’s laughter, gaining nothing else.
