Murong Xian’er’s speech was very simple. Then there was a happy birthday song. Everyone sang in unison and someone pushed a huge cake up. After Murong Xian’er made a wish and blew the candles, everyone shared the cake, and the atmosphere was very joyful.
Then, many people handed over the birthday gifts they had prepared and some people’s birthday gifts were already on the gift table. But there are some people whose gifts are more special or valuable, and they are handed to Murong Xian’er.
Almost all gifts are Antique, such as Ancient Paintings, Ancient Books, Hairpins, etc., because everyone knows that Murong Xian’er likes things with Ancient Styles.
“Xian’er, I recently composed a piece of music and I want to play it for you as a Happy birthday to you.” A young man with long hair holding an Ancient Zither walked to Murong Xian’er and stood in front of her, looking very gentleman and authentic.
As soon as he had finished speaking, there were a few young people around him helping and whistling. Many people present know that this long-haired young man has been openly pursuing Murong Xian’er for some time.
“Then let’s listen to it.” Murong Xian’er was very interested.
“Okay.” The Long-Haired young man’s eyes lit up and he put the Ancient Zither on the table. The others waited and they all calmed down. Everyone knows that this Ancient Zither song is a special gift for Murong Xian’er.
The Long-Haired Young Man sat on the chair. Before playing, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Su Jing, with a provocative expression on his face. Everyone was taken aback for a while, and they all looked at Su Jing.
Many people didn’t know why he did that and Su Jing himself was also a little confused, just play the damn song, what the hell you are looking at me for? Do I even know you? Su Jing then asked Gu Yun: “Who is that guy?”
“Hehe, his name is Qiu Yunjin. He has studied Ancient Zither since he was a child. He is also a Genius in Ancient Zither and a somewhat Famous Celebrity. He has studied with Old Mister Murong for a period of time and he can be considered his half apprentice.” Gu Yun laughed.
“That doesn’t seem to have anything to do with me?” Su Jing said.
“How could it have nothing to do with you? Not long ago, he asked Old Mister Murong to give him the ‘Tian Lai(Heavenly Sound)’. If he can get the ‘Tian Lai(Heavenly Sound)’, it not only means that he has been approved by Old Mister Murong but he would also have more capital to get close to Xian’er. Unfortunately, Old Mister Murong did not agree to his request. He couldn’t even get one of the Three Ancient Zithers but the ‘Moon Whisper’ and ‘Tian Lai(Heavenly Sound)’ both ended in your hands. I guess he was very unconvinced with you.” Gu Yun laughed as he spoke.
“That’s it.” Su Jing suddenly realized something. According to the usual practice, Old Mister Murong should have given the three Ancient Zithers to his most proud disciples.
It is of great significance to have one of the three Ancient Zithers. Some time ago, Qin Lai handed the “Tian Lai(Heavenly Sound) Ancient Zither” to Su Jing, and Su Jing returned it to Old Mister Murong, and it was left with him. Naturally, many people wanted it.
Su Jing couldn’t help but curled his lips. Old Mister Murong refused to give you “Tian Lai(Heavenly Sound)”. That’s because you have no abilities. If you want to blame someone then blame yourself. What is the use of provoking me?
Qiu Yunjin retracted his provocative gaze and took a deep breath, he raised his hands and landed them on the Ancient Zither. Then, the Zither Sound sounded like a spring in the mountains, rising slowly, the melodious and cheerful tunes were quite catching.
One has to say that Qiu Yunjin is quite accomplished in Ancient Zither. Gu Yue, Murong Xian’er, and some musical celebrities who are good at music all nodded slightly. Just now, Qiu Yunjin said that this is a piece of his own composition, which is quite good.
Many people who didn’t know much about music were very interested at first, but after listening to it, they quickly became bored. After all, Ancient Zither is a more partial instrument and not everyone can appreciate it.
However, everyone present here had a good composition and they know how to hide their feelings so even if they are impatient, they don’t show anything on their face.
After a long time, the sound of the Zither fell, and there was fairly warm applause from the audience.
Hearing the applause from the surroundings, Qiu Yunjin’s mouth twitched slightly, and he stood up and said, “Xian’er, this song is called ‘Smile of a Beautiful Women’. I wrote it when I thought of you. Is it good?
“Not bad.” Murong Xian’er smiled faintly.
“That’s good, I am going to add it to my Zither Song album.” Qiu Yunjin said.
“I wish you a great sale of new songs.” Murong Xian’er said.
At this point, the atmosphere is still harmonious as Qiu Yunjin’s music is really good. The title “Smile Of a Beautiful Women” also successfully expressed his admiration towards Murong Xian’er.
However, Qiu Yunjin suddenly turned his head to look at Su Jing and said, “Mr. Su, I heard that you are also called an Ancient Zither Master. Teacher Gu Yue gifted the ‘Moon Whisper’ to you and then he even gave the ‘Tian Lai(Heavenly Sound)’. I don’t know if you can play a piece on the spot so that we can see it?”
At this moment, even some people who are not very clear about the situation probably heard and understood the situation.
This Qiu Yunjin is obviously very unconvinced with Su Jing. Thinking about it, Su Jing is not a Professional Ancient Zither player, but he is easily recognized by Old Mister Murong, Gu Yue, Qin Lai, and Murong Xian’er and they are quite close.
Qiu Yunjin takes the Ancient Zither as his career but he can’t even be compared to Su Jing which is a kind of strong contrast so a few people can accept it.
The guests all looked at Su Jing and were wondering whether Su Jing was called an Ancient Zither Master. Whether he was really young enough to be worthy of this title. Is it a mere name or a well-deserved name?
Although “Origin Cultivation Meditation Song” “A Male Phoenix Seeking For a Female Phoenix” and his other songs are very famous and their spread is far beyond ordinary Ancient Zither Songs, but there are still many people who have not heard of them.
