Chapter 417: Chapter 417

Yu Siqiao: "You can’t be too direct."

Next to him, Ji Nan couldn’t help but purse her lips and chuckle, which earned her a glare from Mo Shu.

Mo Shu stood up and said, "Ji Nan, go ask the hotel manager if there’s a violin we can get our hands on."

Sha Sha: "Look, Mo Shu, just... don’t bother, with so many people here, you really shouldn’t... cough, embarrass yourself."

"Are you sure, what if I can actually play?"

Sha Sha seriously said, "It doesn’t matter whether you can or cannot, playing the violin requires standing very straight. Look, even dancing made Young Master Yu uneasy, how distressed would he be if you played the violin? Right, Young Master Yu?"

Called out by name, Mo Shu’s attention successfully shifted to Yu Siqiao.

Yu Siqiao cast a quick, stern look at Sha Sha, then seriously said, "It’s just a violin, my woman of course should be able to handle it."

Mo Shu’s face relaxed, looked at him dubiously, "Really?"

"You forgot last time at my place, you played the piano quite well too," Yu Siqiao was very serious, his tone utterly sincere, "so, the violin definitely won’t trouble you."

Sha Sha rolled her eyes secretly.

She might manage to fumble through the piano, producing a few basic notes since she and Mo Shu had played a little when they were kids.

But neither the Sha Family nor the Mo Family had anyone who could play the violin; there was nowhere to acquire that by osmosis.

She thought Mo Shu had become more sensible nowadays, but it turned out he was still the same, always blindly putting on a strong front when it wasn’t needed.

If Yu Siqiao actually let her go out, it would be quite a spectacle.

Hearing Yu Siqiao say this, Mo Shu felt somewhat touched and said, "Actually, I play piano just okay, I’m better at the flute, and also the violin."

Enough already, I’m listening here!

Yu Siqiao pondered for a moment and said, "I believe you, but you just ate, don’t stir things up. You should still..."

"I must," Mo Shu smiled. "Cousin Shasha looks down on me, I have to prove her wrong."

Yu Siqiao began to panic, saying seriously, "There’s no need to get worked up over this..."

Mo Shu smiled brilliantly, "I want to."

Shasha felt very awkward, "Mo Shu, I think you still should..."

"I want to," Mo Shu’s gaze swept over, then he looked at Yu Siqiao and grumbled discontentedly, "Don’t you believe me?"

Yu Siqiao, against his better judgment, said, "I believe you."

"Of course it’s true," Yu Siqiao said with utmost seriousness, "but you just had lunch, maybe rest a bit first."

Mo Shu was most prone to feeling sleepy in the afternoon. If he could stretch it out for another half hour, she would be out like a light.

Mo Shu saw right through his scheme and snorted, "No, I’ll be sleepy later."

Just then, Ji Nan walked back holding a violin. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI~Fire.net

Mo Shu took it gladly and tried it out.

The tone was not bad.

"Let’s go!" Mo Shu was eager and ready, saying, "Cousin Shasha, what piece are you preparing to perform?"

Shasha was flustered, somewhat hesitant to join, "Mo Shu, why don’t you go ahead, I’ll... wait here."

Mo Shu smiled sweetly, "Ji Nan, Ji Yun, bring her up for me!"

With a face full of regret, Shasha said, "Mo Shu, pretend I never said that, okay? Young Master Yu, stop her!"
