The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine - Chapter 403
Chapter 403: Chapter 403: The Phoenix Wooing Its Mate!
It seemed that, in order to witness the unmatched beauty of Ying Aoshan, everyone in the audience who could play an instrument was putting forth all their effort.
Sun Feng, one of the “Four less of Binhai”, was the first on stage.
With an excited expression, he walked to one corner of the lawn to choose an instrument he was proficient in.
Every member of the Sun family was filled with excitement and indescribable anticipation!
They all hoped that Sun Feng, through his performance, could touch Ying Aoshan and curry her favor!
Now, in the face of a formidable enemy, their old rivals from years ago had already brought forth a martial arts Grandmaster, something that the Sun family could barely withstand! Although Huang Xiaolong was accompanying them, everyone in the Sun family believed that, unless Huang Xiaolong’s master personally intervened, reliance on the young Huang Xiaolong wouldn’t amount to much!
But as it seemed, Huang Xiaolong was too flippant and disregarded everything; there was no sign of his master making an appearance!
Therefore, it was inevitable for the Sun family to make some plans for themselves, and the small gathering hosted by Ying Aoshan today was a great opportunity!
If they could build some relationship with Ying Aoshan, then naturally their enemies would hesitate to take things too far!
Even better, if Ying Aoshan could develop some romantic feelings for Sun Feng, the Sun family would strike it rich!
Soon, Sun Feng was seated behind a piano.
“Little Feng, cast aside all distractions! Play well!” Sun Hu, Sun Feng’s father, said with a trembling voice.
“Little Long, Brother Feng studied piano before when he was studying abroad and even won awards,” Sun Wei said with a smile. “I wonder if Brother Feng can touch Miss Aoshan’s heart and bring glory to our Sun family!”
“Heh heh…” Huang Xiaolong laughed nonchalantly.
It wasn’t that he looked down on Sun Feng, but if Ying Aoshan was that easy to impress, men would’ve swarmed over her by now!
“Hmph!” Wei Feiyang, who originally wanted to go first, was annoyed that Sun Feng beat him to it. He watched Sun Feng with a fierce gaze, his fingers twitching, a murderous look in his eyes!
Sun Feng started to play the piano.
The piece he chose was Beethoven’s well-known “Für Elise”.
The melody was beautiful, the technique proficient. During the performance, it gave an impression as if a medieval European maiden had come to the center of the lawn, dancing joyfully.
It had to be said, Sun Feng’s piano skills were quite impressive, at least on a professional level.
Everyone on the lawn was quietly listening; some couldn’t help but nod their heads in approval.
However, some of the men had a near-ferocious look of jealousy in their eyes, especially Wei Feiyang!
These people were all afraid, worried that Sun Feng’s music would captivate Ying Aoshan!
If Sun Feng got an upper hand, other people would be going crazy!
The song ended!
Sun Feng looked at the elderly man in the Tang suit with hopeful eyes, his face beaming!
His performance just now was beyond his normal skills! It was the most beautiful piece he had ever played since learning the piano. It was also his most thorough and completely uninhibited performance!
Thus, Sun Feng had immense confidence – “This piece should be enough to win me an award at an international piano competition! I believe, after hearing it, Miss Aoshan’s heart will be touched!”
“Honorable senior, I wonder if this piece of mine could enter Miss Aoshan’s ears.” Sun Feng stood up like a gentleman!
Every member of the Sun family was holding their breath!
Not just the people of the Sun family, every person present was filled with tension!
Huang Xiaolong just shook his head slightly and murmured. “How dare you come up here and play that racket? People earn money from their music, but it feels like your music is costing me my life~~~”
“I’m sorry,” the Tang suit elder shook his head, “Please take your seat again.”
“What? I…my song…” Sun Feng was overwhelmed by a profound sense of disappointment!
There were sighs all over the Sun Family.
“Hehehehe~~~~” Wei Feiyang was relieved and laughed lightly.
Reluctantly, Sun Feng returned to the Sun Family’s seating area, dejectedly sitting down, muttering to himself non-stop. “How could this happen… How could this happen… I clearly performed beyond my abilities… Even the pickiest persons ought to appreciate my performance…”
“Anyone else here excels at music?” the gentle Tang suit Elder asked.
The moment his words landed, Wei Feiyang stood up straight. He possessed a tall and upright figure, his every glance exuded confidence. “Honorable Miss Aoshan, I am Wei Feiyang from the Wei family. Since childhood, I have been deeply fascinated by music, with overlaps into calligraphy, painting, and even poetry and songwriting. Lately, I have learned a few ancient scores. I plan to play a piece to contribute to the delight of Miss Aoshan’s esteemed event.”
Wei Feiyang spoke gracefully, with his growing reputation in the martial arts world in recent years, along with him being known as a cultured scholar, making many people in the audience somewhat envious.
“Hehehe~~~” Huang Xiaolong laughed dismissively.
Sun Wei also whispered. “This guy really knows how to perform. One moment he looks ferocious, ready to pounce on someone, and he keeps leering at me. Now he transforms into a scholarly figure, speaking so eloquently—it’s just disgustingly cunning.”
“Puff~ Sister Bai Hu, he has no chance. Just wait and see.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “Music directly touches the heart. This Wei Feiyang is a violent man with a predatory look who bullies the weak. What kind of moving music can he possibly produce?”
“Huh? Little Long… you… you really understand music?” Sun Wei said with surprise. “Though I don’t really understand what you’re talking about, it sounds quite powerful.”
“Hahaha~~ Music? I understand, all because they taught me,” Huang Xiaolong laughed mysteriously.
At this point, Wei Feiyang was already seated behind an ancient zither.
With one sweep of his gaze, the crowd fell silent.
He began to play.
Wei Feiyang’s fingers faintly struck the strings of the zither, the melodious sound of music echoed, full of sentimental nostalgia, and a strong flavor of ancient charm. Even though most people had no idea what music he was playing, they couldn’t help but be entranced.
It was undeniable that Wei Feiyang possessed both martial and musical prowess! An absolute prodigy!
Perhaps, this kind of character deserves the affection of the divine lady of Ying Family, Miss Ying Aoshan!
His melody ended.
But the remnants of his music lingered in the air.
Clap~ Clap~ Clap~~~~~
The audience spontaneously broke into applause. Soon, the clapping and cheering were deafening.
“Hehe~~ Thank you, everyone,” Wei Feiyang stood up elegantly, full of self-confidence. He looked at the Tang suit elder and smiled, “Elder, what did Miss Aoshan think about my piece, ‘Phoenix Pursues Phoenix’?”
‘Hmph! My music is unparalleled in today’s world! Besides, I was playing ancient music, which Miss Ying Aoshan, herself a lady of an ancient martial arts family, would certainly prefer over Western instruments. My unmatched, unique piece was played for her. I don’t believe it won’t touch her heart! Hahahaha! Dashing and talented as I am, if I could court Miss Ying Aoshan, and then join the Ying Family, my future would be boundless!’
Almost everyone in the audience believed that Ying Aoshan would choose Wei Feiyang as her guest…no, to join her for lunch.
After all, Wei Feiyang’s zither skills were extremely sophisticated. Compared to Sun Feng’s piano skills earlier, it was as if Sun Feng was merely a child playing house!
“Young Master Wei, please wait. Allow me a moment to ask Miss Aoshan.” The Tang suit elder was also deeply moved by Wei Feiyang’s zither skills!
