She wasn’t joking in any way with the tough tone as well as that serious look.
Fan Yu stared blankly. After he stared at the fork that was right before him and continued to be in a daze for a few more seconds, he finally realized that someone was threatening him.
There wasn’t a single hint of anger in his heart. Instead, he raised his eyebrows lovingly.
“Take it that I have lost. I promise you that I will no longer meet your clients or take them out for meals. Now, can you allow me to send you back?”
As Fan Yu spoke, he reached out to take the fork away from her hand.
“You’re a lady. Don’t be so boorish.”
“…” Nian Xiaomu went into a daze instantly; she hadn’t expected to hear him say something like that.
The fork in her hand was taken away by Fan Yu without any warning.
Before she could ask Fan Yu if he really meant what he said, he had already bypassed her and walked toward the car park.
He pulled the car door open and sat in the driver’s seat.
Without saying anything further, Nian Xiaomu followed suit and dove right into the car. Turning around to face him, she said, “Repeat what you just said now. I want to record it and use it as evidence!”
“…”
Did he really have such a bad reputation in her heart?
If she were his Liuliu, she would certainly not have a doubt about anything that he told her.
As Fan Yu seemed to have thought of something, the warmth in his eyes gradually disappeared and was replaced by a thin layer of ice.
Pursing his thin lips, he drove away without saying a single word.
Just when Nian Xiaomu was about to say that she was going back to the office instead of the villa, she realized that Fan Yu had stopped his car.
As he turned off the engine, he opened his mouth lightly and said, “I want to buy a piano. Help me to take a look and give me an opinion.”
He had already pushed the car door open and stepped out of the car as he said this.
Nian Xiaomu could only follow him and also disembarked from the car. Lifting her head up, she took a glance at the major piano stores that lined the road and curled her lips.
“I can’t help you because I don’t have much knowledge on musical instruments.”
The moment she finished her sentence, she could clearly feel that the emotions of the person in front of her had turned very downcast.
That desolate aura started to appear on him once again.
It was as if he was abandoned by the entire world…
Nian Xiaomu cleared her throat and said, “Forget it, forget it. I am really not an expert in this, but if you don’t mind, I can help you take a look.”
As she said this, she entered the store directly without waiting for him.
After taking a quick scan of the pianos in the store, she had originally thought that she would still have completely no idea about pianos and would continue to be unmoved by them. However, she couldn’t help it and walked forward when she looked at the pianos from a closer proximity.
Unknowingly, her fair fingers made contact with the black and white keys as she lightly played a test tune.
The pleasing sound of the piano gradually sounded beside her ears.
This sense of familiarity was akin to the time when she had played that other song for the first time during the Yu family’s party.
Even though she clearly did not have much of a recollection about it, her fingers played the melody out habitually.
Smiling, the sales assistant walked forward and told Nian Xiaomu, “Miss, you have great taste—you have just picked one of the best pianos in our store!”
When Nian Xiaomu heard this voice, her fingers paused in their movements. She jumped out of her memories and back to reality.
She was just about to ask Fan Yu his thoughts on that piano. However, the moment she turned around, she saw that Fan Yu was standing in a stunned manner at the entrance of the piano store with his pair of eyes stared fixedly at her.
A shocked and unbelievable look filled his eyes!
Just when Nian Xiaomu was about to ask him if he was okay, he had already rushed to her side and grabbed her shoulders.
“You said that you did not know how to play the piano just now. In that case, who taught you the melody that you just played?”
He held onto her shoulders with a forceful grip.
He grabbed with such force that it was as if he was afraid that she would disappear once he released his grip.
Nian Xiaomu had attempted to push his hands away, but absolutely failed in doing so and responded, “It’s just an ordinary test tune. It’s not like it’s some song with a high level of difficulty.”
Fan Yu seemed to have been struck in the head by a bat when he heard this, and his body stiffened instantly.
“This test tune is different…”
