Sweetheart V5: The Boss Is Too Kind By Hua Er Bao - Chapter 86

Li Wei’s slender fingers were soft, elegant, and skillfully stroking the keys, as the maid placed the cake in front of Madam Lu.

Her perfectly manicured fingers danced like a butterfly on the piano keys.

The melodious birthday song filled the air and wandered across the hall.

It was the second time Jing Yi has come to such a birthday celebration, so she wasn’t surprised when the huge layered cake came and joined everyone in singing the birthday song.

Madam Lu blew the candles and everyone applauded.

Li Wei finished the melody, but instead of going back to her seat she simply stood up and stayed there.

“Everyone! Today is our lady’s birthday, I wish her youthfulness and beauty for the next upcoming years!”

Another round of applaud was made for Li Wei’s words, Madam Lu smiled and said,

“You are always so sweet!”

Li Wei smiled and shifted her gaze to Jing Yi, “Yiren! It’s such a delightful day today since you are an elite music student, how about you show us your talent?”

Everyone’s eyes turned toward Jing Yi.

The Marshal smiled and was looking forward to it,

“Go ahead,” he said with a smile,

He had felt a classical and elegant air around Jing Yiren, and after seeing her play the game so skillfully he was sure she can perform well with the piano as well.

Not everyone was present when Jing Yi had embarrassed herself last time, but Lu Ming was and he knew exactly what Li Wei was planning. He coldly glared at her.

The previous Jing Yi couldn’t play it, but there were a lot of things the new Jing Yi has shown him.

His eyes turned toward her and he softly asked,

“Can you play it?”

“…” Can you play it? Play it my foot!

She had never even seen that instrument in her life before! Let alone practice it!

Jing Yi stood up and pushed back her chair. She noticed the Marshal’s cheery face who was looking forward to it and nervously gulped.

“Erm…I…I need to go to the washroom”

Li Wei smirked and then laughed loudly, “Well, I am waiting for you, Yiren! We all are waiting for you!”

There was no way Jing Yi could escape now, her excuse was only going to delay it for a little longer.

Jing Yi turned and left for the washroom.

Lu Ming was about to follow her when she turned and smiled at him as if it was nothing.

Was she really in a dilemma or what?

Lu Ming stayed in his original position.

Jing Yi entered the bathroom and locked the door.

She closed the lid of the toilet seat and sat above, clutching her hair.

The previous Jing Yi must have been good at playing the piano, but this new Jing Yi couldn’t do it.

And she was afraid if she doesn’t play the piano, ‘Uncle’ might be suspicious of her and things may become complicated.

Then what was she supposed to do?

How can she pull herself out from this situation?

She stood up and washed her hands in the sink and looked at her reflection in the mirror. For the first lady’s birthday, even the washroom was decorated in red ribbons and was very bright.

Her hair was a little messed up and the hairstyle was almost ruined.

After a little while, a sudden thought flashed in her mind.

She fixed her hair, washed her hair and walked out with a confident smile.
