Qiu Honglei's pitiful appearance caused the men in the hall to glare angrily at Zu An, who had actually made Miss Qiu sad.
Anger from onlookers: +44 +44 +44...
Zuan was overjoyed. Coming to Shenxianju this time was definitely the right decision. These adorable old perverts provided him with an unknown amount of anger points. He would definitely have to think about it carefully when he got back.
Sigh, it seems my previous thinking was right after all. Earning anger points by myself is very slow, but with a beautiful woman by my side, it's much easier.
He still misses that night with Chu Chuyan... that night, he took her for a walk in the street, and wherever they went, the passersby were filled with anger.
Unfortunately, Chu Chuyan was too shy. After being surrounded by onlookers that time, she refused to go out with him again.
Now it seems that Qiu Honglei is a very good choice. Coming from a brothel and showing her face in public is not difficult for her. In addition, with her captivating charm, she might be even more effective than Chu Chuyan.
Having considered this, he already had a plan in mind, and replied smoothly, "They've already covered most of Miss's musical skills..."
"Tch~" A chorus of boos immediately erupted from the crowd.
Qiu Honglei's eyes also showed some disappointment. Even if I decide to give you special treatment, you can't just hand in a blank paper.
Otherwise, how can we win people's hearts?
Taking in the reactions of the individuals, Zuan said calmly, "But in my opinion, none of them hit the nail on the head."
These words caused an uproar. It should be noted that not everyone in the hall was a lecherous scoundrel with no knowledge; some of them were also truly talented.
They are also knowledgeable about the zither, and their discussion with Qiu Honglei just now was quite proper.
Among them was even a great talent like Xie Xiu. Could it be that even he couldn't see it, but you did?
At this moment, Xie Daoyun on the second floor gently waved her fist: "What exactly does this guy mean? Does he also know how to play the zither?"
Others thought that was Xie Xiu's evaluation, but she knew that what she said was her own feeling after listening carefully, but Zu An thought that she had missed the point.
She has loved music, chess, calligraphy, and painting since childhood, and is quite accomplished in these fields. Everyone who has made achievements in their professional field has a certain degree of pride, so she was quite unhappy to hear Zuan's words.
Xie Xiu shook her head slightly: "Based on the previous information, he should have never learned to play the zither."
Xie Daoyun snorted: "Looks like that guy before, he's just making a show of shocking things to make the beauty smile."
Anger from Xie Daoyun +233!
She didn't even remember Chu Hongcai's name. As the daughter of the city lord, she didn't usually care much about worldly affairs, let alone remember the son of a concubine.
Zu An looked up at the second floor in surprise. So Sister Xie Xiu was up there too.
That guy even said he'd introduce me to his sister, but nothing came of it.
"Young Master Zu, what makes you say that?" Despite her disappointment, Qiu Honglei tried her best to give Zu An another chance to see if he could smooth things over.
Zuan continued, "The young lady's zither skills were fine, and the emotion she poured into the music was perfect, but there were two fatal flaws?"
Many people around him were amused and annoyed, and they all condemned him for being arrogant.
Xie Daoyun frowned. Even with her expertise in the guqin, she could only barely find one problem, and it wasn't even a big one. But this guy actually said that there were fatal flaws in the other person's playing, even two.
Pei Mianman also rubbed her forehead, as if she felt embarrassed for him. Fortunately, Chu Yan wasn't here, otherwise, given her personality, she probably would have crawled into a hole in the ground.
"Oh? I hope you can enlighten me, young master." Qiu Honglei's expression also turned cold. This guy is really something; I don't even know how to help him.
Qiu Honglei's anger level increased by 250!
Upon receiving this anger point, Zu An thought to himself that this woman was really petty, and then said, "The melody of the music you just played was too bland and monotonous, lacking a distinct tune and rhythm, making it rather boring to listen to."
Xie Daoyun, who was upstairs, said with dissatisfaction, "This guy is talking nonsense. The sound of the guqin is inherently neutral and peaceful, and it does not pursue melody and rhythm at all."
Qiu Honglei frowned as well, clearly thinking the same thing as her. However, she didn't need to speak; many people around who knew the zither had already begun to mock Zu An for talking nonsense.
Zuan didn't take it to heart, and just quietly watched Qiu Honglei.
Seeing that there was no panic in his eyes, Qiu Honglei was also a little puzzled. This guy didn't seem like a fool, so why did he have to say that? Did he really have some ulterior motive?
So she parted her lips slightly and replied, "Young master may have misunderstood. The guqin pleases the player, while the guzheng pleases others. Since ancient times, the sound of the guqin has not emphasized melody and rhythm, but rather a kind of artistic conception."
Zu An smiled slightly: "What a fine way to describe the guqin as pleasing oneself. Just now, when you played for everyone in public, were you pleasing yourself or pleasing others?"
Qiu Honglei was stunned and speechless for a long time.
Xie Daoyun upstairs frowned, suddenly realizing what the other person meant.
Pei Mianman leaned against the vermilion railing, looking at the scene below with a half-smile: "This guy does have some quirky talent."
Perhaps feeling too tired from standing, she picked up a stool and sat down, resting her chest slightly on the railing. She immediately felt much more relaxed, stretched comfortably, and revealed her infinitely graceful curves.
Fortunately, each private room offers excellent privacy; otherwise, it would have attracted countless admiring glances.
