Chapter 188 A Talented Man and a Beautiful Woman, a Match Made in Heaven
The drizzle outside stopped at some point and the sky cleared up.
The beam of light that breaks through the clouds shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the bright golden sunlight shines obliquely on the glittering piano keys. As the keys move up and down, the light and shadow fold.
A light-colored rainbow streaked across the clear sky, building a bridge across the sparkling sea, like melodious notes connecting the feelings in the heart of a pianist.
An inadvertent beam of light shines into the woman's beautiful eyes, and the curled eyelashes are coated with a layer of broken beauty of light and shadow. The light sprinkles into the brown eyes, like a finishing touch.
The flawless white skirt fell to the ankles, and the light and shadow outlined her slender and beautiful figure, which was cold and delicate, and so holy that it didn't seem like something of this world.
The man beside her was even more exceptional, his innate elegance and grace reaching its peak, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, standing straight and composed.
The pair of eyes that had been indifferent for many years were filled with a hint of tenderness. He looked at the woman affectionately, then lowered his eyes to watch his fingers beating.
The white shirt and white skirt create a pure and grand picture, like the prince and princess in a fairy tale who go through hardships and move towards a happy ending.
The white grand piano is both the instrument in their hands and the background for both of them.
The visual impact of the prince and princess was so strong that the onlookers subconsciously breathed lighter, fearing that the slightest movement would ruin the picture.
The piano melody rose and fell, without a single mistake. The melodious piano sound echoed in the living room, and every sound penetrated the ears of everyone present.
They naturally did not miss Tu Xue's heartfelt exclamation. Zhang Xiaoxiao was standing next to her and heard it most clearly.
"How can Mr. Jiang and Xianxian be a perfect match? Don't talk nonsense, be careful of what you say." Zhang Xiaoxiao withdrew her gaze and reminded in a low voice.
It is taboo to talk nonsense in the workplace. If you take a wrong step, there will be no recovery.
Rumors spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Their unconscious words may affect the life trajectory of others.
Every word should be spoken with caution, as it is both a responsibility to yourself and a respect for others.
Tu Xue, with a look of astonishment, finally came back to her senses after hearing this. She realized that there was something wrong with what she said, and slapped her lips slightly, as if hitting herself, with a look of annoyance on her face.
"Oh, yeah! I almost forgot they're already married. "A talented man and a beautiful woman" isn't really a good match, but I think it suits the situation."
The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, they are a perfect match made in heaven.
The piano music never stopped. Tu Xue stared at them intently, sighed, and said to herself, "What a pity."
She felt that the duet playing of Mr. Jiang and Xianxian was simply a resonance of souls. Whether in appearance or in character, they were a perfect match.
But she also knew that such unfounded remarks were inappropriate, so she kept her mouth shut.
Unlike the cautious employees on the scene, Jiang Qing, as a family member, obviously did not think too much about it.
She had played the piano before, and she immediately recalled the name of this piano piece, and naturally thought of the meaning behind this piano piece.
Listening to the piano music beside her, she pondered for a moment and said, "I remember the piano piece 'Holding Hands'. It expresses the interdependence, care, and support in family and love. President Jiang and Secretary Xu played it..."
She didn't finish the rest of the words, but they were enough to give everyone room to use their imagination, to continue daydreaming and speculating.
The voice that came slowly was neither too loud nor too soft, and the people standing nearby could hear it clearly. Their expressions varied, ranging from calmness to surprise and suspicion.
The two people playing the piece in front of me are in a superior-subordinate relationship, and neither love nor family affection seems to be related.
As someone who can play the piano, how could he not know the origin and meaning of piano music!
Unless there is a special meaning.
After all, there are so many piano pieces in the world, why bother playing a controversial piece?
Seeing this, Wang Bai hurried to smooth things over to prevent them from getting suspicious, otherwise this carefully prepared team-building activity would not be so joyful.
President Jiang mentioned to him that they would make their relationship public after the team building, and specifically asked him to pay attention to everyone's status and not let them get suspicious.
This allows Xu Xian to have fun with everyone as an ordinary colleague, without creating alienation and estrangement due to the distance caused by his identity.
"I don't know much about piano, but this piece of music makes me happy. After all, it releases dopamine. Maybe it was just picked randomly to set the mood. There's no need to guess."
Wang Bai is Jiang Shibai's capable and personal assistant and the employee closest to Jiang Shibai in the company. Everyone is quite convinced of what he says.
Hu Yuanshan naturally understood his hint and casually changed the subject, "Boss Jiang and Secretary Xu should be setting the mood. I see the rain has stopped outside, so we can arrange an outdoor barbecue tonight. It won't be a wasted trip after all."
The rain, which we thought would continue until tomorrow, suddenly stopped and everyone was excited.
Huo Wen, immersed in the beautiful piano music, said cheerfully, "The rain has really stopped."
"Open-air barbecue is so boring. Beach barbecue is more interesting. Feeling the night sea breeze and singing little songs, it's so wonderful just thinking about it." Cao Guang expressed a different opinion.
"That sounds good."
As their discussion came to an end, the last note of the piano was played, with a long tail.
Jiang Shibai and Xu Xian both placed their hands on the piano keys. Their two equally slender and well-proportioned hands looked like finely crafted works of art in the white light.
The two smiled at each other, with a hint of appreciation in their eyes, as if they were of the same kind and could smell each other's scent.
The beautiful painting is frozen.
A burst of uneven applause interrupted the affectionate gaze between the two. They were so immersed in playing the piano that they didn't really notice when a group of people appeared in the living room.
Xu Xian stood up calmly and smoothed her slightly wrinkled skirt.
Tu Xue was the king of flattery. She immediately went up to her and took her hand to examine her carefully. "Xianxian, you play the piano really well. Your skills are superb and your hands are beautiful."
Her hands were actually not bad, just a little fleshy. But compared with Xu Xian's well-proportioned and slender hands, they were like heaven and earth.
She can only comfort herself that everyone has their own beauty.
Xu Xian let her do what she wanted, his eyebrows slightly raised. "I haven't played for years, so I'm a little surprised that you can play the whole song without missing a single note."
To be honest, she was surprised herself. After not having touched it for many years, she could still find the feeling she had back then.
In fact, Jiang Shibai's contribution is certainly not unworthy. Duet and acting are similar. Jiang Shibai can lead her to explore the world of music, just like an excellent actor can drive the emotions of his opponent.
Of course, she has her own abilities as well, and the two of them complement each other.
"Secretary Xu was being modest when she said she wasn't very good at playing the piano. In my opinion, she can be called the best, and it makes people feel like they are in the scene." Jiang Shibai highly praised and affirmed her, with a smile in his eyes.
Everyone was a little surprised to hear this. President Jiang was not a boss who was stingy with praise. He would praise his employees, but he would usually use words like "not bad" and "very good". This was the first time they heard such extreme words from him.
Xu Xian curled her lips and smiled lightly, her bright eyes shone with a faint light, which was her emotion from the heart.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Jiang. You played beautifully. Your contribution to this perfect performance is indispensable."
The way the two spoke was measured and distant, making people feel that they were very polite.
Just a few words completely dispelled everyone's doubts. They really thought that they were simply playing the piano and had no other intentions.
It is difficult to find a soulmate.
