Chapter 671: Two Trash, Hurry and Pay the Money (Part 3)
Who says being smart and beautiful requires playing the piano? Is this moral blackmail?
[No, this is called 'ability kidnapping' - if you can, you must be able to do everything.]
[Oh my god! It's so suffocating!]
[Who said she was cute just now? Yue!]
【For the first time, pink disgusted me.】
What's wrong with pink? It's just a low-level green tea spirit wearing it.
[Hearing her repeated "oh," "ah," and "ah" made me feel so embarrassed]
[Could this be the legendary...diamei watch? ]
[Believe it or not, I, Sister Yue, will make you wait for dinner as soon as the suona starts playing?]
He Yan is a peculiar person, and his niece is even more peculiar.
[Who gave her the courage to provoke Sister Yue? ]
【……】
The live broadcast room was filled with comments full of complaints.
The quality of netizens this time is quite high. They don't swear much, but they are extremely sarcastic and can come up with golden sentences frequently, which left the director team stunned and forced to hold back their laughter.
"He Yan's niece is too..." The director didn't finish his words.
"Stupid." The assistant director beside him completed the sentence for him.
"Who can I blame for my own failure? If she had been more adorable and less involved, she could have attracted a small following. But she insisted on dragging Jiang Fuyue down to establish her own image, without even considering her own IQ."
Do you really think it’s that easy to win a gold medal in a competition?
If Jiang Fuyue didn't have some skills, she would never have achieved the popularity she has today.
"But then again, if she can really make Jiang Fuyue lose face, she would be considered a talent." The coordinator stroked his chin, looking like she had great potential.
The director shook his head, disagreeing. "So what if Jiang Fuyue got humiliated? She was just taking advantage of her inability to play the piano. But her aggressive behavior has ruined her own popularity. It's not worth it."
"Are you still as easily fooled and incited as you were 20 or 30 years ago? After all these years of surfing the internet, you've already developed all the necessary intelligence!"
"So, will Jiang Fuyue accept the challenge and play a four-hand piano duet with her?"
The live broadcast room was also curious——
[By the way, can Sister Yue play the piano? ]
Although it's not worth it to compete with such a person, I still want to see Sister Yue stun the entire internet when she does.
[I get it! We all grew up reading cool novels, so who doesn't want to bully a jerk?]
【……】
Jiang Fuyue saw that He Xiaoke not only opened the piano cover but was about to touch the keys, and immediately scolded him -
"stop!"
He Xiaoke was stunned, then blinked, feeling aggrieved: "Sister Jiang..."
"I advise you not to touch it!"
He Xiaoke didn't understand: "I didn't mean any harm, I just saw a piano here, so I wanted to play it..."
Jiang Fuyue turned a deaf ear to this explanation and looked at the piano with a hint of nervousness in her eyes: "Now, please get up from the piano stool immediately and stand five steps away! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
He Xiaoke looked even more aggrieved, as if she was about to burst into tears in the next second.
She glanced at the camera not far away, secretly sneering. What a genius girl, but she's just like that! She actually revealed such a ferocious side in front of the camera.
It seems that there is no need to compete in piano, Jiang Fuyue has already lost completely in front of her.
"Sister Jiang, I thought we were friends... Can friends be more harmonious? If you have anything to say, you can tell me, I'll just... "
He talked a lot but just wouldn't get up from the piano bench.
Jiang Fuyue was really a little angry.
"I repeat, please stand up and leave!"
The girl's neck shrank as if she was frightened, and she actually... cried?
Two lines of real tears slid down from her red eyes, meandered down her pink cheeks, and finally hung on her chin. Under the action of gravity, they fell on the piano keys with a snap.
Jiang Fuyue's expression changed completely.
Just go up and pull her away.
He Xiaoke hadn't reacted yet. If she hadn't subconsciously held onto the railing next to her, she would have fallen flat on her face.
"You, pushed me?!" She widened her eyes in disbelief.
Jiang Fuyue ignored him and looked at the piano keys stained with tears, with a frown on her face.
"Sister Jiang, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can just tell me directly. There's no need to use force, right?"
The girl's tears rolled down again, her face was like a pear blossom in the rain.
He Yan finally couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to protect He Xiaoke behind him: "If you have something to say, please talk it over. How could you hit me?!"
"Talk nicely?" Jiang Fuyue suddenly raised his eyes, a sneer on his lips, "That depends on whether some people can understand what I'm saying!"
He Yan frowned and said, "It's wrong to take action."
"If I don't do anything, am I going to just watch her destroy the piano? Before this, I told her three times not to touch it, to stand up and leave. Did she listen?"
The man choked.
Jiang Fuyue: "Or do you think you can touch other people's things without their consent?"
"It's just a piano. She just wanted to invite you to play a four-hand duet as a gesture of friendship. Why are you embarrassing her?"
He Xiaoke also stood up crying, "Yes, Sister Jiang, I just want to be friends with you. You can refuse, but... you can't humiliate me! If it's just because of a piano, there's really no need."
He Yan looked at his niece with heartache.
"Uncle..."
"Okay, it's okay."
The two also played the role of uncle and nephew.
"Heh..." Jiang Fuyue sneered, a strange look in her eyes, "You think this is just a piano...?"
He Yan: "What else?"
He Xiaoke raised her hand to wipe away her tears, her red nose silently telling of her grievance.
Jiang Fuyue looked at the two of them intently and suddenly said, "This piano is called 'Starry Sky'."
He Yan: “?” Why did she suddenly say this?
He Xiaoke also looked confused.
"Half a century ago, U2 lead singer Bono raised funds globally to help Africa fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. Designers Jonathan Ive and Marc Newson designed this piano and gave this red pop Steinway an interesting name, 'Starry Sky'."
The two of them still looked at Jiang Fuyue blankly.
The latter continued in a leisurely voice, "That same year, the piano was unveiled at the LD Charity Fair and successfully raised $26 million. That same night, it was sold to a mysterious tycoon for $1.925 million."
"Putting aside the donations raised for this piano, its value itself is $1.925 million, which converts to RMB... a little over 10 million, not even accounting for the appreciation in value over the past half century. Now that your tear has destroyed its original collectible value, how are you going to compensate me?"
He Xiaoke was shocked, his eyes widening: "This piano costs over 10 million?!"
Jiang Fuyue picked up the auction certificate beside her and handed it over: "This has the transaction price from that year on it."
When He Xiaoke took it, her hands were shaking, and when she saw the number on it, her face turned pale.
Soon I broke out in a cold sweat and couldn't even cry.
He Yan was standing next to her and saw everything clearly. His original calmness and composure disappeared.
"Pay me some money." These three words made the two of them change their expressions.
Liu Xiaoke quickly stuffed the auction certificate back, as if she would not be responsible if she did not touch it.
Then he completely retreated behind He Yan: "Uncle, what should I do?"
Although her family is not poor, they are not extremely wealthy either. They can only be considered upper middle class. They can usually afford to buy expensive clothes or wear a pair of shoes worth thousands of dollars. But if she is asked to pay tens of millions of dollars in compensation for a collectible piano, even if she breaks the bank, it will not be enough!
In this situation, she could only ask He Yan for help.
Anyway, my uncle is a star and an actor, he lives in a big house and drives a luxury car, so he definitely has no shortage of money!
What's more, he brought her here and gave her the task of discrediting Jiang Fuyue. Now that something has happened, her uncle should be held responsible!
He Yan was still in shock over the sky-high price of the piano and was unable to react for a long time.
More than 10 million...
It’s almost catching up with my two years’ endorsement fees!
He Yan was born in an ordinary family and suffered hardships since childhood. When he was in his twenties and thirties, he was just a supporting actor in the film and television city. It can be said that he lived a very tight life.
He finally became famous in his forties and could make a lot of money, but because he had signed an unequal agreement with the company before, his commission rate was very low.
She looks glamorous on the surface and wears luxury goods when appearing in front of the media, but in fact, the only apartment she owns was purchased just last year.
Where could he find 10 million to fill the hole in He Xiaoke's pocket?
Immediately, no word was said.
Jiang Fuyue suddenly found it funny and actually curled her lips: "Why aren't you talking? You have to have an idea of when to pay, right?"
Three updates, three thousand words.
There will be more at 1:30, I suggest you read it tomorrow morning~
