C2341 A Battle of Lips and Tongue
"First compliment? Does this mean that Gu Madam has the intention of following the clouds today? I still remember that you played a piano at the University B's anniversary. I think Gu Madam is very talented. The zither will definitely be a piece of cake?"
Lin Jia had previously received Du Ruoqing's hint that Huo Niannian must make a fool of herself at today's birthday banquet. He had always liked Du Ruoqing, but her attitude towards him had always been cold and indifferent. Even if Du Ruoqing married someone, he did not change his mind. Until not long ago, when Du Ruoqing was imprisoned, it caused him to be unable to believe it.
In his impression, Du Ruoqing was noble and elegant, never doing anything out of line. When he heard this news, his first reaction was that Du Ruoqing must have been wrongly accused.
Fortunately, Du Ruoqing was released not long after. What surprised him even more was that Du Ruoqing actually took the initiative to contact him and tell him the truth of the matter.
So the person that caused Du Ruoqing to suffer the calamity of the prison was Huo Niannian!
He wholeheartedly wanted to curry favor with Du Ruoqing, so he listened to Du Ruoqing's arrangements and decided to help the person he loved take revenge!
What he needed to do now was to force Huo Niannian to play the zither.
He sneered and looked at Huo Niannian boldly.
Huo Niannian lightly smiled and her indifferent eyes met his gaze. What was the relationship between these two people? Anyone with discerning eyes could tell with a glance what they wanted to do. She also guessed it.
However, she just did not let them do as they wished.
She opened her mouth and said directly, "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. I'm not good at zither."
"Gu Madam is too modest. You can play a song personally and let us personally experience what you think is' good '!"
Huo Niannian raised her eyes again and looked at Lin Jia with a faint smile. "When I was young, I only learned some superficial knowledge from Uncle in the countryside. Why would Lin Zhou be so against me?"
Against?
Everyone could more or less see the meaning behind this. They did not know why Lin Jia suddenly turned the spearhead to Huo Niannian.
Could it be that the news on the Internet saying that Du Ruoqing was imprisoned because she offended Mrs. Gu was true?
Everyone subconsciously shifted their gazes to the cold man in front of them. When they touched his low pressure, they immediately retracted their gazes.
They did not intend to pursue what Lin Jia was thinking. After all, as artists, there was always something abnormal about their behavior!
Everyone stopped thinking and heard Lin Jia laugh again, "Gu Madam really wronged me. I just feel that you are very outstanding. As a musician, if I can't hear Gu Madam's music, it would be really regrettable..."
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Tingshen, who had been silent all this while, opened his mouth lazily. "There are thousands of music people in this world. I don't see how regretful they are that they did not hear my performance! There are thousands of people in this world who know how to play the guzheng. Do you want to regret it?"
Although there was a trace of a smile on his face, it did not reach the bottom of his eyes. Not only did it not make people feel relaxed, but it also made their hearts sink and their faces change instantly.
Gu Tingshen saw Lin Jia's somewhat panicked eyes, and the pressure in his eyes became even stronger.
He wanted to make things difficult for his wife in front of him? Huh...
He curled his lips and sneered. Perhaps the change that happened to the Du Family a few days ago was too simple, that was why they were so impudent!
Huo Niannian saw the side of Gu Tingshen's venomous tongue again, and a smile appeared on her brow.
When she heard the man's words just now, she was about to blurt out his words to scold him. She did not expect that Gu Tingshen would take the initiative to attack first.
She smiled. Because of Gu Tingshen's words, the gloominess that arose in her heart because of Du Ruoqing's conspiracy dissipated, and it became clear all of a sudden.
She mustered her courage and grabbed Gu Tingshen's hand in front of everyone's eyes. They intertwined with each other's ten fingers, and it was obvious that they were very close.
Sensing her small movements, tenderness flashed across Gu Tingshen's eyes quickly, and he took advantage of the opportunity to completely grasp her small hand.
Immediately after, his gaze that was filled with coldness fell on Lin Jia once again.
Seeing Lin Jia's face turn red and white at times, Gu Tingshen curled his lips and said in a deep voice, "A life without regrets is not perfect, so Lin Yan should continue to regret it."2
"Pfft..."
There was a burst of low laughter around and Huo Niannian also smiled with her eyes curved.
She thought that Gu Tingshen's words against that person was already the limit. She did not expect him to be so vicious with his words. He was so powerful that he did not give the other party any chance to retaliate at all.
She secretly gave Gu Tingshen a thumbs up.
