Chapter 176 - One Day, We Will Restore Our Instruments To Their Former Glory
Chapter 176 One Day, We Will Restore Our Instruments To Their Former Glory
In her previous life, because Tang Li had obtained many spiritual instruments, she would fiddle with them now and then. In addition, the Host was actually very talented in music, but she was a little unique. She did not want to walk this path and never played any in front of outsiders, so no one knew that she could play instruments.
The bodyguard quickly brought over a guqin.
The guqin had an antique vibe to it and looked very different from the shiny black piano.
Another waiter quickly brought over the table and chairs for the guqin. Tang Li sat there. She was wearing a dress, but she looked in harmony with the guqin. After putting the guqin on the table, she looked at Lucia and said with a powerful domineering aura, “Now, I’ll let you know why the Imperial’s instruments are better than the Western instruments.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she swept over the guqin and let out a sound that was like flowing water.
If the suona could suck out the souls of the audience, then the guqin could console the soul.
The people present were all successful people in their own domain. All day long, they had to stay vigilant of people who were trying to replace them, and never once did they dare to relax. However, the music played by Tang Li was so magical and soothing that it made people want to let down their guard and relax for a moment.
They were now not in a fierce business world, but next to a small stream, accompanied by their loved ones, caressed by the gentle summer breeze.
No one knew when the guqin stopped, but when they came back to their senses, their expressions were complicated.
Someone said disappointedly, “Why did it stop?”
Amidst the silence, a chuckle was heard.
Everyone subconsciously looked at Tang Li, who had already stood up. They were all stunned by her beauty at this very moment, and a poem struck them-When a beauty looks back at you, you won’t trade that smile for the world.”
Tang Li was exactly the beauty mentioned in the poem.
Tang Li looked at Lucia and asked, “Do you admit defeat now?”
Lucia shuddered and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of frustration. She knew that she had lost. No matter how well she could play the piano, she could never bring the audience that degree of immersion Tang Li had.
“Impossible! The imperial instrument can’t possibly be so powerful.”
“Humph!”
Tang Li sneered and said, “It’s not that the instruments of the Imperial Capital can’t be so powerful. It’s because the instruments of the Imperial Capital are not easy to learn. People nowadays are lazy, that’s why they chose to learn western instruments.”
She then turned to look at the others and continued, “The Imperial instruments have a long history and have dominated the world’s musical instruments for a long time.”
After pausing for a moment, she went on. “One day, we will restore our instruments to their former glory.” Every word that Tang Li uttered had a powerful and unforgettable impact on the audience. Especially the few reporters who were qualified to enter tonight, they felt like crying.
The reporters who were allowed in were all decent people. They swore to themselves that they would definitely spread out what Fourth Madam said tonight.
The result was clear that Lucia had lost. On such an occasion, she couldn’t possibly go back on her words.
The more she thought about it, the sadder she felt. Suddenly, a hand was placed on her shoulder. His brother said to Tang Li, “Since Lucia has lost to Fourth Madam, we will do what we promised. However, our family is very powerful in M Nation. If we let two people who molested my sister out like this, my family will not approve of it.”
When Second Master heard this, he immediately stood up and said sternly, “Is Mr. Milus going back on your words?”
Milus shot him a sharp look, his eyes flashing with killing intent, but his lips still curled into a gentlemanly smile. “Why would I go back on my words? I mean, we’ve already informed our family of this matter, so I have to persuade our family first. How about this, you guys can come and bring your people home tomorrow morning.”
“Whether the two people are still alive or not tomorrow morning is another story.” At the thought of this, a viciousness flashed across Milus’ face.
Everyone understood what Milus was implying.
When Second Master heard this, he practically leaped up in fury. But before he could flare up, Qi Yihan spoke first. “Sure. Then we’ll bring them home tomorrow morning.”
He then gestured to the waiter. “Serve the wine.”
“Since this is the celebration banquet of the Qi Group and KL Group, let’s have a blast tonight.”
“That’s right, President Qi.”
After the waiter served the wine, everyone continued drinking and chatting as if what had happened earlier was just a small episode.
After the banquet, many people were drunk. At the end of the banquet, Tang Li said to Lucia, “Miss Lucia, let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t go overboard, or you’ll regret it.”
Lucia felt that Tang Li was mocking her. When she returned to the hotel, she finally broke down and burst into tears.
“I can’t accept this! I can’t accept this!”
After crying, she looked at Milus with viciousness in her eyes. “Brother, I’m going to kill those two.”
They were the ones who made her an embarrassment and made her lose to Tang Li. She wanted to kill them.
Milus didn’t have a chance to carry out his original plan because of the competition between his sister and Tang Li. When he recalled how the two guys molested his sister, his eyes were filled with ruthlessness. “We still have one night. I won’t let them go in one piece. Be patient, I’ll figure out a way to punish them.”
“I’m going to punish them myself!”
Milus knew he couldn’t persuade Lucia right now, so he took Lucia with him to the embassy.
Then, they went to the jail, accompanied by the ambassador.
The next morning, when Second Master and the Xu family brought Qi Tiancheng and Xu Shize home, they were already beaten half to death.
Although the two families were furious, they had to choke it down and pretend nothing happened.
However, Qi Tiancheng and Xu Shize were not reconciled and were furious. As a matter of fact, they were drugged as well and didn’t do anything to Lucia, but they had been terribly beaten almost to death.
At this moment, Qi Lingxuan offered his help to Xu Shize, saying, “I’ll give you a miracle medicine that can heal your injury immediately. Then you can seek revenge, but in exchange, you have to do me some favors.”
Xu Shize was not a fool. “Do you think I’ll believe you?”
Miracle medicine? How could an illegitimate son who grew up in a ghetto have a miracle medicine?
Qi Lingxuan sneered. “Then you can take your time being bedridden. I think Lucia and the rest will go back soon. You might not have the chance to take revenge anymore.” Upon hearing this, Xu Shize started to waver. He wouldn’t be able to rest well until he took revenge.
At this moment, Qi Lingxuan added, “You guys were arrested because of rape, but as a matter of fact, you haven’t even touched Lucia.”
Triggered by Qi Lingxuan’s words, Xu Shize was experiencing a surge of violence. He wanted to make them pay tenfold or even a hundredfold.
“Don’t worry, the favors I’m going to ask you to do for me won’t be very difficult.”
Hearing that, Xu Shize gave in and said, “Okay, dael!”
