A carriage sped past in the night, and the dust brought up by the passing wheels hung in the air with the cool spring night wind, giving it a smoky gray haze.
As the former ruler of Lansen, the Leng family's mansion in Luoshan is still one of the most beautiful buildings in Lansen.
The buildings in the distance emit brilliant lights in the thin mist, and the exquisite colors are reflected on the river washed by the moonlight, rippling slowly with the microwave, like a mirage or a flash in the pan, illusory and ethereal.
Through the car window, his faint blue pupils quietly stared at the building that was getting closer and closer.
Gradually, the speed of the car slowed down, and the crisp sound of horse hooves, mixed with the squeak of rolling axles, seemed extremely discordant on such a beautiful night.
"Two gentlemen," the coachman's loud voice came through the outside of the car, "We are almost there. It seems that it will be very lively there tonight!"
"Yes, indeed."
In the car, a deep baritone voice was strong and powerful.
The coachman pulled the reins, "It is said that the protagonist of today's dinner is His Highness Leng Ling. The two gentlemen were also invited, right? I heard that His Highness Leng Ling is very naughty and often brings trouble to the president and his wife."
The middle-aged man in the car raised the back of his hand and glanced at his watch, "Sir, please hurry up, we may be late."
"Sorry, I was so busy talking to you that I forgot important matters," the coachman stopped talking and hurried forward faster.
Glancing at the young man sitting upright next to him, the middle-aged man smiled kindly and said, "It's your first time attending such a formal banquet, so you're a little nervous, right?"
The young man seemed to have just come back from his deep thoughts, "Ah, yes, it is indeed a bit."
The middle-aged man patted the other party's shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay. Mr. President's family is very approachable. You don't need to be so nervous."
"Thank you teacher, I will try to relax."
Tonight, as a young man who has just graduated from law school and entered Lanson's legal profession, Zuo Li was invited to attend the Leng family's dinner party with his teacher. He was both excited and nervous.
As soon as he stepped out of the car, people's laughter and laughter came from all directions, hitting his eardrums and touching every nerve.
Although the teacher had comforted himself, it was the first time he had experienced such a grand scene. Saori was still a little embarrassed. Taking a deep breath, he released his hands, which had been clenched for a long time and the knuckles were white, and he walked into the crowd step by step.
among.
The luxurious grand banquet hall was bustling with activity, with the cheerful sound of violins and people's chatter and laughter reaching my ears from all directions.
When the people who were chatting happily noticed the appearance of that white figure, everyone's eyes, without exception, were fixed on that person.
The noble pure white hand-made custom-made long coat is only decorated with a few beautiful orchids on the long cuffs, which is the national flower of Lansen.
In sharp contrast to the color of the clothes are the dark eyes, those beautiful pupils as clear as a deep lake, showing a calmness and calmness that children of this age do not have.
With her soft black hair hanging down naturally, Leng Ling walked down the steps calmly, exuding a hint of innate nobility and coolness in her every move.
Under everyone's gaze, Leng Ling calmly walked to the grand piano placed in the corner of the banquet hall and sat down slowly.
After a moment of silence, he placed his hands on the keys, touched them lightly, and the playing began.
No one expected that the protagonist of tonight's banquet would appear in such a way. Although it was a bit unexpected, everyone present was still happy to enjoy the performance of the boy in front of them.
The thin little figure leaned in front of the piano, his flexible and slender fingers running on the black and white keyboard, and his dark pupils kept shrinking with the ups and downs of the melody.
Leng Ling played breathlessly, forgetting to breathe, and poured all his emotions into the performance. His pale skin was replaced by a light blush that gradually emerged, and his beautiful and delicate face was sometimes angry, sometimes sad, and sometimes painful.
Sometimes confused.
At the end of the song, there was total silence, and it was difficult to hear even a slight breath.
After a while, a burst of warm applause, cheers, and praises erupted from the crowd.
Leng Ling stood up and put one hand on the piano cover, her beautiful facial features shining dazzlingly under the lights of the banquet hall.
"Welcome everyone to attend today's dinner. I am Leng Ling. I hope that the performance just now will bring you an unforgettable night. Please feel free to do so. I'll excuse you now."
A voice as clear as a bell echoed in the huge banquet hall. Leng Ling leaned forward slightly and disappeared from everyone's sight.
In the corner of the grand banquet hall, Zuo Li stood there, staring at the cold, arrogant and astonishing boy, and was dumbfounded.
"That was the first and only time I saw you play. Although it has been ten years, your music still echoes in my ears, and it will never disappear."
Leng Ling's thoughts seemed to be stuck in the memory of the unexpected encounter with Li En. The first meeting when he was a teenager actually started to become clear in his mind because of someone else's words.
Sitting opposite, Saori stared deeply at Leng Ling. The handsome and noble young man overlapped with the face of the handsome young man in front of him. He recalled the first time he saw Leng Ling ten years ago, and his handsome face was shining.
Shiny.
Leng Ling lowered his eyelashes slightly, clasped his long and narrow fingers flat on his knees, and said with a calm look, "I don't understand what you mean."
"Your Highness, I just felt it. From the moment I saw you, I secretly swore in my heart that no matter what happens, I will always be by your side."
Leng Ling was unmoved by Zuo Li's overtures, "Based on that one-sided relationship, it's a bit rash."
