Chapter 54 – Insult Me With Your Dirty Money! (3)
When she was talking to the boss, Yan Shuyu’s enthusiasm was mostly fake, but once she sat down in front of the piano, it turned into genuine enthusiasm. It was because she has come to realize that the only way to send this VIP away was to give him what he wanted. And she could make some extra income at the same time. That’s what one’d call killing two birds with one stone. She was such a genius!
As she was very pleased with herself, her cheerfulness could be felt directly in each note that she played.
She had only performed “Little Leaping Frog” for the first time in this refreshing and romantic coffee shop to annoy the boss enough that he’d leave. It had never crossed her mind whether this type of music would jive with the ambience of the shop, but sometimes unexpected events take place in life. What she had done at the spur of the moment had turned into a new trend for the shop.
Sunshine House was a small café made popular by the internet. Even though it was only well-known among a specific circle, as a café that was raved about on the internet, it had always drawn trendy young people to go there and check in. When Yan Shuyu performed “Little Leaping Frog” on that Saturday afternoon, it just so happened there were some of these trendy young people there. They had subsequently shared the “surprising performance” on the net. In the week that followed, Yan Shuyu had received two separate requests for her to perform “Little Leaping Frog”.
Yan Shuyu was quite proud that her performance was sought after. More importantly, it meant more money. She was happy, and her fondness for this song continued to grow. As she was happily performing away, she even started singing alone. Before she even realized it, a small kiddo snuggled right up against her.
Zhou Yi might only be 4 years old, but as a kid born into wealth, he didn’t have much of a childhood to speak of. Other kids might be listening to kids’ songs, but someone of his status listened only to classical music.
He had recently started piano lessons, and his instructor was a young pianist, the kind who’d very likely become a professional pianist at some point. Perhaps influenced by his instructor, the little young master has always thought of piano as something as noble and refined. To the point that when he witnessed Yan Shuyu performed a cheerful kid’s song with the elegant piano, the little young master was stunned, and his worldly viewpoint almost crumbled.
Quickly, his shock turned into a novelty. The cheerful tunes of the kid’s song relaxed his otherwise stern look. When he saw Yan Shuyu started singing along, he couldn’t help but slide off the couch and looked at his daddy with those big, round eyes.
On a personal level, Zhou Qinhe treated his son the same way as he did anyone else – he looked friendly all the time.
Seeing the longing look in his son, Zhou Qinhe nodded and said, “Go.”
Zhou Yi then waddled over toward Aunty Yan on his stubby legs.
He was still a bit reserved at the beginning, but when he was about a meter or so away from her and perhaps noticing that she hadn’t noticed him at all, he got braver and braver and slowly nudged closer and closer. Finally, he was leaning up against her thigh and closely watching her ten fingers happily bouncing up and down the keys.
Yan Shuyu had been completed absorbed in her performance, but she wasn’t too nervous when she came to. Instead, she looked at him in the same pure way that she looked at her instant son and expressed her welcome, “Sing with me – a happy pond was built, dreams became ocean, round eyes and big mouth, singing loudly….”
Normally, Zhou Yi would have just ignored that. He was the male lead after all, no matter how young he was, he still has his own brand of personality. But, he was overly curious today, and Aunty Yan’s look was too infectious. The little young master started singing with her without even noticing.
