Chapter 48: Became A Temptress Expert At Climbing Onto Someone!

The conversation over there was still not over.

"No matter how I look at her, I still feel that Ningxue is better!"

"Hey, comparing Ningxue with that woman, aren't you belittling Ningxue? Ningxue is so pretty. She graduated from a famous school, knows three languages, and can play five different instruments. Can that woman even compare?"

"I'm not as great as how all of you are saying..."

There was actually someone familiar in there! Hearing Bai Ningxue's voice, Su Jian felt a little awful. To think that there would be a day when his beauty would be compared to a girl, life sure was full of surprises...

Su Jian abused himself by perking up his ears, wanting to hear more. However, ever since someone else came over, the bunch of ladies no longer made more any sounds.

Su Jian waited for a while more, but there were still no voices. Thinking that those 'dark' people had left, he came down from the railing in disappointment.

Returning back to the brighter areas, Su Jian once again worked hard to look dignified. Then, he remembered the 'dark' people comments about him being a 'temptress'. He wanted to try acting out that role seriously. Unfortunately, he had no idea how he could portray himself like that magical word.

Su Jian looked around. He saw An Yize still talking within the crowd of guests. He turned back his head and pondered. Then, he picked up a cup of juice obediently and drank a mouthful of it.

Looking up, he happened to see Ji Yan closeby. He suddenly remembered about the autograph. When he wanted to get the photos, he heard someone calling him. "Miss Su."

Su Jian was startled. This voice sounds familiar....

Su Jian looked over and saw a young woman dressed exquisitely standing in front of him. Not far behind her, Bai Ningxue and another woman were also looking over.

The woman's laughter was very dignified and elegant, with no trace of contempt like before. She glanced at An Yize that wasn't far away and praised, "Third young master is young and promising. Miss Su is gentle and virtuous. The two of you are a pair made by heaven."

Su Jian felt that it was absurd. He cursed in his heart: Dear, I remembered you calling me a "temptress" just a moment ago. Why are you being so gentle and virtuous now? Did you have to change so quickly!

Fortunately, Su Jian still looked calm on the surface. He laughed gently and virtuously, "Thank you."

The woman continued, "Miss Su and third young master's relationship is so good, it is enviable."

Su Jian continued being gentle and virtuous, "That should be the case."

Woman: "......"

After exchanging a few words of courtesy, the woman suddenly said, "I have heard that Miss Su can play three different instruments. Today is third young master's birthday. How about playing a piece as a present for third young master? I'm sure third young master would be very happy."

Su Jian understood everything immediately. The words "gentle and virtuous" that was said earlier wasn't just for courtesy. Looks like he had to pay the price for those words now. Three different instruments. Why did he not know that he had such an ability? Since young, he was sure he only knew how to play one musical instrument, and that was whistling. He was very talented in this area. When he was in university, he whistled frequently and could whistle to the point that his brothers felt like peeing.

Su Jian had wanted to confess that he couldn't play an instrument but he saw Bai Ningxue walking over. Her voice and expression were both gentle, "Coincidentally, there is a piano here. brother Yize likes to play the piano too. If he hears Miss Su playing for him, I'm sure he will be very happy."

I don't know if he will be happy or not, but I will definitely not be happy! Su Jian said honestly, "Actually, I don't know how to play the piano."

The woman started laughing, "Miss Su is being modest. With An family's family status, how is it possible for the woman that is married into their family to not even know how to play the piano?"

Su Jian: "......" Your mom! Nowadays you actually need to check a woman's piano grade before marrying her? He had long known that finding a job was hard. One needed to have at least a grade two in the , pass the 4 and CET 6 exam, and one sufficient knowledge for their job. However, he did not know that he actually needed a grade to marry as well!

Life was so hard at this point!

In the midst of feeling absurd, a gentle voice interrupted them, "All of you should stop making things difficult for Miss Su or else Xiao Ze's heart will ache."

Su Jian looked up and saw Queen Ji standing before him with a gentle smile, her eyes full of good intentions.

Bai Ningxue smiled sweetly, "Then why not sister Ji play a piece for brother Yize? I have heard that sister Ji is good at playing the piano. You also have a good relationship with brother Yize. If he hears sister Ji's playing, brother Yize might be even happier."

Ji Yan laughed, "How could I as a guest overwhelm the host's limelight? Although I grew up together with Xiao Ze, it is Xiao Ze's birthday party today. Miss Su should of course hold the authority." Turning around, she said to Su Jian, "So what if you can play the piano or not? Xiao Ze didn't marry you for the fact that you can play the piano."

The woman at the side added, "Miss Ji is right. It's okay even if you can't play the piano. Maybe Miss Su wishes to play some other instrument? Coincidentally, there is a band that has been specially invited and they have most of the common instruments. Miss Su may wish to see which instrument you like."

I don't like any of them...... Su Jian did not expect that he would be targeted by someone about playing an instrument today; he suddenly felt helpless. Say, why is nobody asking whether I can sing or not? I'm good at pop songs, folk songs, and even children songs!

While he was confused, his waist was suddenly hot as a familiar hand embraced it.

An Yize who appeared suddenly look down towards him and said faintly, "Today is my birthday. If everyone wishes to hear the piano, it should naturally be me playing."

While saying that, he held Su Jian's hand. Under the eyes of everyone, he walked step by step towards the black piano.

His words were for everyone. However, his eyes hid a trace of smile as he glanced at Su Jian who obviously breathed out a sigh of relief.

"But I would like to apologize. The piece I am playing is not meant for everyone but for my wife."
