Fang Yusheng held his violin and did not turn around.

  When he heard Qiao Jiusheng’s footsteps, he said, “Ah Sheng, come to me.” Then, he patted the piano under him with his right hand.

  Having just woken up, Qiao Jiusheng was still in her pajamas.

  She walked over in her cotton slippers and sat beside Fang Yusheng. She touched the piano and asked, “What are you doing?”


  Fang Yusheng lowered his head. Qiao Jiusheng could see his handsome and noble face when she looked up.

  At this moment, a faint smile hung on his face, and he looked very beautiful.

  Fang Yusheng asked her, “Do you know how to play the piano?”


  Qiao Jiusheng nodded. “Yes, I do. But I’m not good at it.” When she and her sister were young, they had learned a lot. Qiao Jiuyin was more musically inclined than Qiao Jiusheng; she could play the piano, the guzheng, and the violin. Moreover, she was also good at chess. Meanwhile, other than learning jade carving from her master, Qiao Jiusheng couldn’t focus on learning anything else.

  She knew how to play the piano, but she was not as good as Qiao Jiuyin.

  Fang Yusheng nodded and said, “As long as you can play.”


  He stood up, pointed at the piano behind him, and said, “The piano score is there. Look.”


  Qiao Jiusheng sat on the stool and picked up the music score to read it.

  After a few minutes, she looked up at Fang Yusheng and said, “I’ve looked through it. It’s not difficult.”


  “Okay.”


  Fang Yusheng carried the violin and stood behind a translucent curtain. He then said to her, “Let’s play it together once.” After saying that, he nodded and picked up the violin with his right hand holding the bow.

  Qiao Jiusheng shook her hands. She started playing the piano as she read the music score.

  The sound of the piano rang in the house. Aunt Jin, who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, suddenly wiped her hands and walked to the door. She leaned against the door and watched the couple.

  The tune produced by the piano was soothing and melodious.

  Qiao Jiusheng did not play it wrong.

  She finished the part that belonged to her and turned the page of the music score. Suddenly, the sound of a violin rang out.

  The moment the sound of the violin came out, Qiao Jiusheng was stunned.

  She turned her head in surprise and stared at the man standing in the morning light.

  The violin’s sound was high and sounded sharp sometimes. However, Fang Yusheng’s violin music made Qiao Jiusheng feel one word.

  The moment she heard the sound of the violin, Qiao Jiusheng seemed to see the morning sun jumping out of the horizon of the sea. It was bright and beautiful. The light shining on her body at the shore was so gentle that she wanted to extend her arms and grab it. However, Fang Yusheng was someone even warmer than the sunlight.

  Qiao Jiusheng was a little stunned.

  Not only her, but even Aunt Jin was shocked.

  Fang Yusheng finished playing his part and lowered his right hand, which was holding the bow. He had not played the violin for many years, but this tune was one he had silently played in his mind for ten years. He was all too familiar with it.

  After regaining her senses, Qiao Jiusheng resumed playing the piano. When she finished her part, Fang Yusheng started playing another segment.

  The duet of “Time Stand Stills” ended. Aunt Jin wiped her face and felt the tears at the corners of her eyes.

  She gratefully looked at Qiao Jiusheng.?

  Qiao Jiusheng’s fingers playfully poked the piano keys. She praised Fang Yusheng. “You’re amazing. You can play the violin so well.” And he could not see.

  Fang Yusheng smiled proudly.

  His smile did not match his relaxed posture, but it looked great with his stunning face. Qiao Jiusheng suddenly ran over to him and tilted her head to ask, “Can I… try playing it?”


  Fang Yusheng handed her the violin.

  Qiao Jiusheng imitated Fang Yusheng’s previous behavior. She got into her stance and started pulling!

  The sound of a dying pig filled the house.

  Aunt Jin covered her ears and quickly ran to cook.

  Fang Yusheng also found it harsh, but he listened with a smile.
