Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Between intervals of each song, Hua Wuyan talked to Long Siye. "I just realized that Overlord Long is good in music. The song that Miss Gu sang was so strange. I have never heard of it, but you can follow her beat so quickly."
Long Siye smiled, "Thanks." It was because he came from the same world as her, so he was more familiar with each song. Then, he glanced at Di Fuyi. He knew that Di Fuyi was good at playing the flute and had a solid sense of music. In fact, Di Fuyi was arguably better than Long Siye. However, Di Fuyi was a native of this era. Even if he was talented in playing music, he had never heard the modern songs that Gu Xijiu and Long Siye were familiar with, so he could only sit there and watch Long Siye demonstrate his ability.
After Gu Xijiu finished singing, the other three in the lounge clapped and cheered. Lan Waihu kept begging her to sing another song, but Gu Xijiu chuckled, "I will sing if you win once." This made Lan Waihu desperate to win. The other two also tried to let Lan Waihu win because they also wanted to listen to Gu Xijiu's singing again. Finally, Lan Waihu won a game!
Gu Xijiu kept her promise and started to sing. This time, she sang an oldie that Long Siye had never heard before. It was an acapella. Just when she just sang a few lines, a tune could be heard from the next lounge that followed her beat.
Gu Xijiu stopped. Lan Waihu was enjoying herself and was surprised when she ended abruptly. Gu Xijiu took a cup from the table and drank. She calmly smiled and said, "My throat is dry. I will sing again later."
Di Fuyi at the next lounge moved his fingers away from the zither. He also drank his tea and felt that the tea was slightly bitter and cold.
After a moment, Qian Lingyu shouted in surprise, "Xijiu, what is this musical instrument?"
"This is a guitar."Gu Xijiu answered. This instrument was made from some herbs. Although it was not comparable to a modern guitar, it has a beautiful ring to it too.
When she played the guitar, the other three were impressed. It was a beautiful thing to listen to her singing accompanied by the guitar. This instrument was uncommon in this era, so the three of them were very curious about it.
The other four people in the next lounge looked curious too. Hua Wuyan and Qian Yueran looked at each other with questions in their mind. Long Siye had mixed feeling. He had never thought of making a musical instrument for Gu Xijiu. In fact, the song she sang would be better if a modern musical instrument accompanied it.
He was happy every time he played the flute for Gu Xijiu. Although she paused for a moment, she continued singing till the end. Whereas when Di Fuyi played the zither, Gu Xijiu immediately stopped. Apparently, she did not want to have any relationship with him anymore.
As time passed, Xijiu would slowly forget about Di Fuyi and accept Long Siye into her life. There was no right or wrong in love. Anyway, Xijiu used to like him in her past life.
If he were more courageous that time and did not have so many concerns, they would have become husband and wife, and Di Fuyi would have no chance to interrupt. In fact, the four heaven's gift disciples had finished discussing their essential matter. Usually, Di Fuyi would leave early, but now he was still here and did not intend to go yet.
