Twenty years of familial love, years of marital affection—all were lies. The father who doted on her since childhood turned out to be the murderer of her mother. The husband who cherished her all a...
Dinner was served in the hotel lobby, which was particularly crowded, perhaps because of the beautiful moonlight tonight.
Inside the hotel restaurant, a pianist was playing beautiful music, soothing everyone's tense nerves after a long day.
Mo Jingjing quietly cut the steak on her plate, occasionally glancing up ahead, wondering why Ling Moyuan hadn't arrived yet.
After the piano piece ended, the pianist stepped off the stage.
Suddenly, the brightly lit room went completely dark. Just as everyone was panicking, the hotel's loudspeaker announced, "Excuse me, please don't panic. There is a gentleman here who wants to play a piano piece for his wife. He said that his wife has been unhappy these past few days, so he wants to do something to cheer her up. Please give him a round of applause."
A round of enthusiastic applause broke out. Everyone was quite fond of such beautiful and romantic things, just like when a man proposes in public, everyone will always cheer for the woman to say yes.
Mo Jing was feeling rather bored because it was pitch black all around and she couldn't even manage to eat her steak. No matter who was performing the romantic act on stage, it certainly wasn't Ling Moyuan.
I wanted to leave, but it was pitch black and I couldn't see any way out, so I could only turn my face to the window and look at the scenery outside.
A spotlight suddenly shone on the center of the stage, revealing a man in a well-tailored silver suit. His features, sculpted like an artist's work, exuded an air of haughty superiority. The aura he radiated made one wonder which country's nobleman he might be.
A smooth piano melody began, each note seemingly striking the heart, unexpectedly beautiful. Compared to it, even the previous pianist's skill seemed quite ordinary.
The song begins with a piano accompaniment, followed by a captivating and enchanting vocal. "Watching every motion in my foolish lover's game. On this endless ocean, lovers finally know no shame. Turning and returning to some secret place in time."
His voice was like the melody played on a fine cello, deep and husky, yet with a deadly sexiness. It was an ordinary song, but when he sang it, it sounded like a divine melody created by heaven, deeply captivating the listener.
Mo Jing, who was looking out the window, froze as if struck by lightning the moment she heard the sound. She turned her head slowly, her eyes filled with disbelief.
When I saw Ling Moyuan's familiar profile, my heart pounded.
Under the lights, Ling Moyuan looked outstanding. The overhead light made his skin look translucent, and his well-defined fingers danced nimbly on the piano keys, as if he were dancing.
