"If he hadn't married Ye Nanyue, would the Shi family have let him show his face?" Another rich lady also said sarcastically, "It's not easy to get into the upper class society, of course you have to be fawning."
"But he plays the piano really well."
"The Shi family wants to cooperate with Mingheng Pharmaceutical, and Mrs. Ming has spoken out in person. How dare Shi Wenzhi refuse to agree? Besides, wouldn't he be happy to humiliate an illegitimate child?"
"And didn't Mrs. Ming say that as long as she goes on stage and plays a song, she will be rewarded with a million dollars? Tsk, has this kind of illegitimate son who cannot be put on stage ever seen a million dollars?"
"Ah!"
Ye Nanyue turned her head and looked at the noble lady not far away, the wife of the chairman of Mingheng Pharmaceutical. She was holding up a wine glass and gesturing around, and said politely and arrogantly, "I just appreciate art, nothing else.
He can make everyone laugh, so my money is not wasted."
On the stage, Shi Wenye's fingers became more and more nimble and the music rhythm became faster and faster.
Ye Nanyue noticed that Shi Wenye's thin lips had pursed into a straight line. Her heart tightened and she went straight to the stage.
The surrounding discussions all stopped the moment she stepped onto the stage, leaving only the passionate music echoing throughout the banquet hall.
One after another, it sounded like waves hitting the rocks, or like thousands of horses neighing and fighting.
All that was left in front of Shi Wenye's eyes was the beating keyboard, but one picture after another flashed through his mind.
"Play! When you're done playing, let's eat again."
"Don't you understand what I'm saying? Your whole body, only these hands can't destroy you!" If the whip is whipped on your body, if you miss a note, you will be whipped hard.
The small and cramped room, the music echoing throughout the attic, the drunk man, and the eyes peering at his hands in the dark night...
Memories struck his mind one after another.
Boom!
A noise disrupted the rapidly playing music. Shi Wenye raised his head and saw Ye Nanyue looking at him with a worried face.
In an instant, all the dark pictures in my mind were shattered and dissipated by this scene.
"No more playing." Ye Nanyue gently held his trembling hand, her face full of tenderness.
Shi Wenye's tense back relaxed, and he followed Ye Nanyue's strength and stood up.
Mrs. Ming swung her wine glass and raised her red lips, "Ms. Ye, what do you mean? I paid for it."
"It's a good thing that Mrs. Ming likes art, but you have to know how to appreciate it! My Aye's artistic level is not high. If Mrs. Ming doesn't mind, I will do it for you."
Shi Wenye pulled Ye Nanyue's hand and shook his head at her.
Ye Nanyue gave him a smile.
Mrs. Ming stared at Ye Nanyue closely, and someone next to her whispered to persuade her.
But of course Mrs. Ming refused to lose face in front of so many people.
But a junior can still make a difference.
"If Miss Ye doesn't mind, of course we are willing to appreciate Miss Ye's art."
Ye Nanyue's red lips slightly opened, "Then I will dedicate this sentence to Mrs. Ming. I also hope that Mrs. Ming will appreciate it and make Mrs. Ming smile."
She didn't play the piano or dance, she just stood on the stage with a picturesque look on her face and cold eyes staring at Mrs. Ming.
"Woman, your gorgeous clothes and sparkling pearls have won you the queen's false imagination;"
"Little did you know that all that is left around you is the poison of power, the fragrance of arrogance, and the fragrance that both seduces and kills."
Before Mrs. Ming could get angry, Ye Nanyue chuckled, looking like a girl who was inexperienced in the world, "This sentence is a famous line from Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream". I think Mrs. Ming's artistic attainments will definitely understand."
The meaning of it.”
Mrs. Ming's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, "You..."
"Mrs. Ming, don't forget to pay one million." After saying that, she turned her head and looked at Shi Wenye, "Aye, if Mrs. Ming is willing to pay one million to invite you to the stage, it's really a big price to pay.
"
"Yeah?"
Ye Nanyue nodded firmly, "You don't even know that Mrs. Ming has never made a penny since she left college. All her money was given by Chairman Ming."
"But Mrs. Ming is very powerful. We don't have to worry about her defaulting on the debt and refusing to pay."
As soon as Ye Nanyue finished speaking, someone beside him couldn't help but sneer.
Mrs. Ming was the mistress who came to power. When she was in college, she was kept by Chairman Ming. After graduating from college, she succeeded in forcing the wife into the throne and successfully came to power.
It doesn't sound good if the mistress is in the position.
But Chairman Ming loved his beloved wife and gave her enough face.
The people in the powerful circle are all good people, so naturally they will not offend Chairman Ming, and they all treat Mrs. Ming a little bit lightly.
But in my heart I look down on this kind of woman.
Now, Ye Nanyue has torn her fig leaf apart in public and hinted that she is very capable and relies on her body to make money, which is really heartbreaking.
Mrs. Ming didn't expect Ye Nanyue to be so disrespectful to her, her face darkened, and she glared at Shi Wenzhi fiercely, "Young Master Shi, is this how your Shi family treats guests? I don't think you are sincere and Ming at all.
Constant cooperation.”
Shi Wenzhi secretly hated Ye Nanyue, and could only smile bitterly, "Mrs. Ming, this matter has nothing to do with our Shi family. Aye, Nanyue, why don't you come down and apologize to Mrs. Ming."
Ye Nanyue smiled coldly, looked at Shi Yuqing, and asked, "Uncle Shi, do you think Aye and I should apologize?"
This is when Shi Yuqing is roasted on the fire.
If he wants to cooperate with Ming Heng, he must offend Ye Nanyue.
If he wanted the forces behind Ye Nanyue to come forward, he would have to lose face to Mrs. Ming. If this woman blows the pillow, her cooperation with Ming Heng will definitely be over.
After thinking about it, he could only glare at Shi Wenzhi fiercely.
It was definitely the eldest son who was behind the scenes that made Shi Wenye embarrassed in public.
Now he has to offend one party, but he doesn't want to offend any of them.
It's really a dilemma.
Just when everyone was waiting for Shi Yuqing to make a decision, Ye Nanyue suddenly said: "It's also my fault."
Ye Nanyue admitted her mistake.
Everyone looked at her.
She looked annoyed and said, "I like Shakespeare myself, so I thought others would like it too, so I chose this section."
"If Mrs. Ming doesn't like it, how about... let the young lady of the Shi family come out and dance a song?"
There was a smile on her face and her eyes showed no aggression at all, but what she said quickly changed the situation, "I heard that the young lady is a dancer. Her artistic attainments must be higher than those of a layman like me."
Shi Yuqing's eyes lit up.
Ye Nanyue gave him a step up so that he would not offend Mrs. Ming or Ye Nanyue.
Mrs. Ming snorted coldly, knowing that it was a big fuss and she was the one who was embarrassed, "If you dance poorly, I won't agree to it."
Ye Nanyue smiled slightly: "Mrs. Ming, don't worry, the young madam will definitely satisfy you. Aye and I didn't satisfy Madam Ming, so there is no need to give the one million to us as husband and wife, just give it to the young madam!"
This is Wen Zhi’s face when he was openly beaten.
Shi Wenzhi's face changed slightly, but before he spoke, Shi Yuqing said with satisfaction: "Nanyue is right. My dear wife, why don't you hurry up and get ready."
