He seemed to be able to switch and affect others’ mood at will. While ying his hair and clothes fluttered even though there was no wind. At the end of the y, Fu Jin slightly bowed and he was given a thunderous apuse.


    “Not bad!” Aarti said in German.


    “Old man, you did well,” praised rk.


    The rest said nothing, but they approved of him.


    “That was very good, foster father. You are indeed a master. Who is the next person toe liven our mood?” Theresa asked with a smile and Long Hua Ming volunteered.


    He directly jumped onto the stage and sat down, crossed legged. He flicked his sleeves and a Guqin appeared.


    “Wow! Such nice Guqin,” Ju Wei praised.


    “Shut up!” Long Ren scolded.


    He was sulking at the fact that he wouldn’t perform today. He continually stared at Theresa, hoping that she’d change her mind, but she turned her face away.


    That’s right! She’s still upset.


    Long Hua Ming yed ‘Maidens of the tea mountain’ slowly but steadily. It was a soothing tune that gripped the hearts of the listeners and immersed them in another world. Some were even close to tears.


    “Who knew that evil pal has such magical hands?” Fu Jin thought and nodded in approval.


    Long Hua Ming was better than him, but still he was unbeatable in flute music. Heh!


    8 minutester.


    Long Hua Ming plucked thest string for a longer time and ended the music. It took a while for everyone toe to their senses, and they gave him an apuse thatsted longer than Fu Jin’s.


    Yeah, Fu Jin was the one who apuded most.


    rk and Aarti came up next. He’s good with the drum and he yed it together with Aarti who knew how to y the Pipa along with two Indian musical instruments. The song they yed was rk’s own song in Chinese that he had written and sung to her on their honeymoon.


    Though she didn’t understand a word but she could y the music and everyone nodded at their perfect cooperation when ying. rk did the singing, and it shocked all except Theresa and Aarti at hearing his voice. Such an angelic voice!


    After they were done ying that music piece, they yed an Indian song and this time, Aarti did the singing with rk being the backup.


    For Theresa, it was a first to see someone y Indian music with the pipa. It felt different, but it was still good.  Aarti had been taught the Pipa by herte aunt Priya Singh when she was 7.


    After her death, she touched the Pipa less often, but Theresa knew her mum could y it. She has heard it when she was 12 and loved it.


    Hearing her mum’s sweet voice and her music again, Theresa was moved to tears and pped slowly in a rhythm.


    In thetter part of the music, Marabelle ran up to them with the harp and yed along with them and joined rk in being the backup singer. Not that she knew Indiannguage very well, but she was very familiar with this song, hence she joined them even when it wasn’t her turn.


    After everything, the trio on stage bowed, and the rest stood up and apuded in tears except Long Ren. He was not happy here. He really wanted to show his talent, even if it’s just for a minute. But s…


    “You guys are great!” Long Hua Ming praised.


    “Yeah! Mister rk, what’s the name of the first Chinese music you yed,” Fu Jin asked. He itched to y it with his flute.


    “Love of a thousand years not denied,” rk replied with a smile.


    “A very fitting name indeed. Your wife is excellent with the Pipa too, and so is the little girl,” said Ju Wei. But rk shot him a baleful look with his eyes for a second.


    “Eh…” Ju Wei scratched his head.


    “Ju Wei can dance, so let’s y a song for him, shall we?” suggested rk.


    “GREAT! GREAT!” old man Long eximed as he fiddled with his hair.


    Ju Wei went up to stage after changing his clothes to that of a dancer’s.


    rk, Long Hua Ming and Fu Jin yed a piece of music and he was able to stun them with his incredibly terrible dance. His body seemed rigid and Theresa thought even a three-year-old can dance better. Gosh! His skills suck!


    The trio ying didn’t even wanna y anymore, but when they were about to give up, Marabelle got up and suddenly walked close to the stage and yed her harp too. If one could look closely, her eyes were darker than before.


    Ju Wei upon seeing this decided to be serious now and immediately his aura changed and then instead of the terrible dance of earlier he performed a shocking dance and then… twerked!


    Since when does one twerk to a ssic song? Ju Wei’s lean hips did their best to shake vigorously. It was such a sight to behold!


    At this, they stopped ying and Marabelle’s eyes returned to normal. It shocked all to the point of silence.


    “You… how can you do that?” Bai Lu Chen spat.


    “Eh… Mistress had once asked my master to do so, but he disobeyed. So I decided to do it in ce of him. Also, she said, we have to make this party unforgettable. And I also wanna show you how nice my ass is so…”


    “Get… down… the… stage.” a pissed rk slowly said and Aarti massaged his back.


    He suddenly felt that this guy must be taught a lesson once the party was over. Theresa stood up with a smile to ease the rising atmosphere.


    “Ju Wei, you did well to give us a dance that will never be forgotten. But I suggest  that you re-dance with your junior brother to sing for you. Foster dad and Sir Long will y for you two. Choose the song that you love to dance to and then Bai Lu Chen will sing for you,” Theresa suggested and for once, Long Ren chuckled.


    “Serves you right, attention seeker!” Long Ren said to the unhappy Bai Lu Chen telepathically, but he didn’t reply.


    “Mistress, I choose to dance to ‘ck knight and his rose hugging their fox’ ” Ju Wei dered and Bai Lu Chen’s face went ck.


    Wasn’t that a part luby romantic song? This Ju Wei wanted him to sing that? Come on, you gotta be kidding him, here! How old was he?


    “Junior brother, you won’t refuse right?” Ju Wei winked mischievously at Bai Lu Chen.


    “Fine! I’ll sing for Mistress’ sake!” he finally relented with a sigh and Theresa gave him a thumbs up.


    Seeing that, his heart soared in delight. He provokingly spoke telepathically to Long Ren: “Senior brother, it’s a pity, someone won’t get approval no matter how much he yearns for it. I feel so sorry,”


    “I also pity someone who gets a cut sleeve as a partner. I wonder who truly is the pitiful one, here?” Long Ren retorted.


    “Whatever,” Bai Lu Chen flew to the stage and stood proudly.


    “Everyone, this Taipan king wishes to sing a song to liven the party. I also propose that Mistress allows Long Ren to sing with me.” said Bai Lu Chen.


    Hearing this, the rest turned to look at a speechless Long Ren and then at Theresa.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.


    “I agree. I haven’t heard Long Ren sing, so it’s an excellent opportunity. Go on,” Theresa spoke with a sly smile and Long Ren felt his head spin.


    “Fighting! Fighting!” Ju Wei cheered, and the rest joined him in cheering.


    “Fighting! Fighting! Fighting! Fighting!”


    Bai Lu Chen chuckled and covered half of his face with a fan he took out from his spatial ring.


    “Senior brother, thank you for honoring my request. I look forward to our awesome duet.” Bai Lu Chen said and bowed his head slightly.
