C366

Unknowingly, they had arrived at the center of the city.

Gu Rou stopped her thoughts and politely lectured, "Grandpa Fu, I'll be fine here."

He stared at her for a moment, then nodded and told the driver to stop.

"Thank you, Grandpa Fu." Gu Rou got off the carriage and watched as it slowly drove away.

He was unfamiliar with this place, he looked around at the bustling and prosperous city, but Gu Rou's heart was filled with melancholy, and then, he absentmindedly walked forward.

She remembered that before she came to Beijing, she wanted to take a good stroll around this city that had a unique meaning. Ji Chenxi had clearly said that he would bring her to play, but who knew that this would be the case!

So it turned out that without his company, even the most beautiful scenery would become boring. However, he was angry and ignored her!

When she thought about how he treated her in such a manner, Gu Rou's heart became even more conflicted and depressed. Not long after, she just happened to pass by a zither shop.

He saw a little girl who was not even ten years old, attentively and meticulously playing the piano. Beside her was a woman in her early thirties. Her appearance was very similar to the little girl. She was most likely a mother and daughter.

The zither music just now was the little girl's playing. Although it was very nice to listen to, as long as one was an expert, it was not difficult to hear the flaws in her voice. After the song, Gu Rou saw the little girl pouting her lips and looking unhappily at her mother.

The mother of the little girl lowered her head, not knowing what to say. However, the little girl kept shaking her head, and gradually, she started to cry.

After a while, the zither shop owner walked over. After a short conversation, Gu Rou finally understood what was going on.

Earlier, the little girl had felt that she wasn't good at playing and wanted her mother to play for her, but her mother was completely clueless about the piano. As for the lady boss, she just happened to be injured today and couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

Seeing the little girl cry so much that the little girl's mother was both anxious and helpless, as well as the entire scene looking extremely depressing, Gu Rou couldn't help but feel sympathy for them, and ask them to volunteer themselves and give it a try.

The other party was surprised. Although they were not clear about Gu Rou's background, after some thought, they still agreed.

The Lady Boss politely welcomed Gu Rou to the piano. Gu Rou first teased the little girl for a bit, and then played the piano.

She played a song called "Dance in the Moonlight," which her mother had taught her. The tune was beautiful and light, and when she closed her eyes and played it to her heart's content, she seemed to see her mother dancing, and she became even more engrossed in it until the music was finished and she was unable to get out again for a long time.

"Elder sister, you're really amazing. This song is very pleasant to listen to. It's the most beautiful song I've ever heard. Can you teach me how to play it?" The little girl from before walked in front of Gu Rou and couldn't help but cheer.

Gu Rou looked at her and smiled, then turned to look at the little girl's mother and the Lady Boss. Soon after, her gaze touched the other two unfamiliar figures, and she unconsciously became drowsy for a bit.

She saw that the two women were around 50 years old, had a graceful and elegant air to them. Of course, the thing that surprised Gu Rou the most was the way they looked at her!

Compared to the others who were intoxicated with the praises, more surprise was revealed in their eyes. Moreover, the woman who had a slightly pale complexion still walked up to them without warning, stared at her, and asked, "You …" How do you know this song? "

Gu Rou was unable to react in time. The other woman also quickly came over, pulled the woman who had spoken to Gu Rou and softly called her "big sister".

The woman acted like she did not hear anything and continued to look at Gu Rou eagerly, waiting for her response.

"My mother taught me that." Finally, Gu Rou replied.

"What's your mother's name?" the woman asked again.

"My mom... "Her name is …" Gu Rou subconsciously wanted to reply, but stopped in time.

"I'm sorry, but this song was actually created by my sister. She taught a group of students before, and when I heard you play it today, I wanted to ask you about it." Another woman explained in time as she gave Gu Rou an apologetic smile.

Gu Rou's heart trembled, she was surprised. Mom had only taught her the song, but she hadn't talked to her about it.

To think that this auntie in front of him had invented this. It seemed that this auntie also knew how to play the piano, and she was an expert at that!

Inexplicably, a special feeling of familiarity welled up in Gu Rou's heart, and quickly told her her mother's name. She seemed to have a very deep impression of her mother, and when she heard him, she was extremely excited, and even asked him about her mother.

"She …" "She's dead." After a long period of silence, Gu Rou slowly replied, her expression already very gloomy.

After the two women heard it, they were shocked again and apologized to Gu Rou.

"It's alright, it's all in the past now." Gu Rou came out of her deep sorrow, shook his head at them, and then bid farewell to the Lady Boss and the little girl. She even apologized to the little girl, saying that it was inconvenient for him to teach her piano.

This time, the little girl was not as stubborn and willful as before. Although she was depressed, she did not cry out again.

After a while, Gu Rou walked out of the piano shop.

After walking for a while, he suddenly heard a shout from behind him. It was the two women from before. When they got closer, the 'sister' immediately said, "Miss, please be presumptuous. Are you mind waiting here for a moment?" Can you accompany us for a walk? "

Errr —

Gu Rou was even more confused, but she endured it and did not reveal it.

"Oh yeah, my name is Han Meixuan, my sister is Han Liyan. May I ask what your name is?" It turned out that these two were Ji Chenxi's mother and aunt.

In the past few days, Han Liyan had gotten sick again, and his entire condition was not looking good. Today, she had calmed down a little, so Han Meixuan brought Han Liyan out for a walk, hoping to distract her attention and let his condition recover.

Unexpectedly, they would meet Gu Rou, and they had some connections. Seeing that Han Liyan seemed to have some special feelings for him, Han Meixuan decided to borrow Gu Rou's power to calm him down.

Gu Rou was puzzled, but somehow, she did not reject them. She could not help but nod her head and agree, and when she regained consciousness, she discovered that she had already followed them into a teahouse.

Finally, she told them her name.

Han Meixuan was indeed an exquisite person, she could speak very well, and could not help but praise, "Gu Rou's name is nice to hear! "She's beautiful and she can play the piano. What a nice little girl!"

Gu Rou felt a little embarrassed, and her cheeks flushed red. Although she had heard many praises, but in front of the two of them, she still felt uncomfortable.

Or was it for some other reason?
