The wine was liquid after all . Even if the entire bottle of wine caused no adverse effect on the body, it was enough to make one's tummy feel bloated, and so Sue drunk more slowly .
All of a sudden, someone took the lead and applauded . “Marvelous . This little pretentious one was indeed superb!”
That's right, it was Zhou Shuang again .
After she took the lead, the rest followed suit . They applauded Su Yue to encourage her .
Finally, Su Yue raised her head in a heroic manner and left not a drop of wine in her bottle .
“Wonderful!”
There was an outburst of clapping among the group .
Tang Feiling also finished the last drop of her wine . Seeing everyone turn their attention on Su Yue, she burst with rage that her alcohol flushed face turned even redder .
She put down her wineglass, looked at Su Yue haughty . “We still need to play the piano . ”
Su Yue looked at her and mumbled, “You first . ”
Tang Feiling arrogantly raised her chin . There was a hint of a disdainful smile at the corners of her mouth . “You go first . Otherwise, people will say that I bully a kid . ”
Su Yue's response was unenthusiastic as usual . “I've read the story about Kong Rong giving up the bigger pears for his older brothers, so you go first . ”
“You've all heard her . She insisted that I go first . So don't accuse me of bullying her . ”
Tang Feiling looked at everyone in the room before walking towards the piano . She knew her own alcohol limits . She would definitely be tipsy after finishing an entire bottle of wine and won't be able to hold up much longer .
That was why she didn't insist and had refused Su Yue's suggestion .
Since the alcohol hadn't taken its full effect in her body, she wanted to seize the opportunity to play a beautiful piece for everyone to triumph over that wretched lass .
Tang Feiling sat in front of the piano and placed her hands on the keys . She put on a smile at everyone before moving her fingers .
She played the popular piece 'Ode to Joy' by Beethoven .
She sat upright and nimbly moved her fingers along the keys while maintaining a confident smile at the corners of her mouth .
But the alcohol took effect much faster than she had expected . Her head spun, and she hit the wrong notes at a certain part .
It wasn't obvious to those who didn't play the piano but where she was at, who couldn't play the piano?
Especially Yan Rusheng .
There was a hint of ridicule at the corners of his mouth . Xuxu saw this, and she knitted her eyebrows . She asked, “What's wrong?”
She was clueless about the piano . She learned it when she was young, but gave up in the end for she realized she didn't have an innate musical talent .
If someone asked her to play it impromptu, she would probably play a few pieces that she had played before . Then again, she wouldn't be able to play it well .
Yan Rusheng smiled and leaned over to Xuxu . He whispered, “Out of tune . ”
“Really?” Baffled, Xuxu frowned . How come she didn't notice it?
Furthermore, this was one of her favorite pieces, and she was drawn to the song right from the start .
“Ode to joy . I've finished playing . Thank you . ”
Tang Feiling held on to the piano frame and slowly stood up before taking an elegant bow at everyone .
In actual fact, she was buying time for she was feeling extremely dizzy . If she were to step out in a haste, she would take a stumble .
“Great . ”
After someone took the lead and applauded, the rest followed suit .
Even Young Master Yan also 'gave face' and clapped as he fixed his gaze at Ming Ansheng meaningfully .
Ming Ansheng's expression turned solemn . He was the only one in the group who didn't sound his applause .
Hearing the thunderous claps, Tang Feiling felt smug and moved towards Su Yue and said, “Your turn . ”
“Alright . ” Su Yue's face had turned flush from the effects of the alcohol . She nodded at Tang Feiling and prepared to walk towards the piano .
