Xia Yourong sneered, “Okay.”
Xia Ye took the flute but didn’t rush to play; instead, she looked around it first.
The construction of the flute’s body and the placement of its holes perfectly continued her design, just crafted with even finer workmanship.
“Got a new spare head?”
Xia Yourong halted for a moment, then pulled out a new spare blow-head from the flannel bag’s compartment.
How did Xia Ye know that the flute could change heads?
She couldn’t have secretly rummaged through her room, could she?
Xia Ye deftly changed it.
She certainly didn’t want to share one with that older sister.
Seeing that her desk mate was really about to play, Tang Tianjiao trembled, “Des-desk mate…”
Xia Ye’s cherry blossom-soft lips had already covered the flute mouthpiece.
Tang Tianjiao couldn’t bring herself to cover her ears; she could only hold her breath.
She had decided, no matter how her desk mate played, she would be the first to applaud and cheer!
Xia Yourong stealthily turned on her cell phone’s recorder, thinking of capturing Xia Ye’s poor flute-playing and sharing it on an online forum for everyone to “enjoy.”
However, Xia Ye might also not produce any sound at all because playing the ancient flute was challenging, requiring technique that often left novices unable to make a sound, let alone a melodious one.
As Xia Ye was about to start, Xia Yourong extended her cellphone a bit more.
The next second, under Xia Ye’s performance, the flute produced no sawing noises or amateurish saliva sounds; instead, it emitted several very beautiful melodies.
Xia Ye was rather reserved; after all, she had just returned to the Xia Family, and producing a whole tune right away wasn’t logical.
Hence, she simply played a few melodies.
They weren’t complex tunes, but they went straight to everyone’s heart.
The sound was silky smooth, yet it carried hidden sharpness.
Even Tang Tianjiao, a layman in music, could recognize the difference.
When Xia Yourong played, it was like the melodious chirping from the palace, but Xia Ye’s playing gave off the feel of a martial arts blockbuster!
This was indeed the right way to play an ancient flute!
Tang Tianjiao had goosebumps all over; it was her first time feeling this way from a live instrumental performance.
Xia Yourong’s hand shook, and her cell phone almost fell.
She quickly turned off the recording and snatched the flute back from Xia Ye’s hands.
Her movements were rough.
Xia Ye slightly raised her eyebrows; she wasn’t playing the ancient flute to embarrass Xia Yourong, but to vindicate her own instrument.
Otherwise, others might think that that was how the ancient flute was supposed to sound when played by Xia Yourong.
She still cared about saving face, after all.
Xia Yourong was so angry she couldn’t speak; she turned around to leave and hadn’t taken many steps when she nearly bumped into Tian Ye, who had come running at the sound.
Tian Ye, drawn by the sound of the flute, looked at Xia Yourong with surprise, “Xiaorong, what was that melody you just played?
It felt better than what you played on stage.
Why didn’t you play that earlier?”
Xia Yourong felt a rush of blood to her head.
Directly K.O.!
She bit her lip, glared at a smirking Tang Tianjiao, bypassed Tian Ye, and ran off.
Tian Ye was confused; he was clearly complimenting her, so why was she so angry?
Watching Xia Yourong get face-slapped by her own Flower Guardian, Tang Tianjiao couldn’t help but laugh, stepping forward and patting Tian Ye on the shoulder, “Bro, it looks like although you’re blind, your ears aren’t deaf.”
Tian Ye shifted his body slightly away in disdain, dodging her hand, “Clarify your words; don’t be cryptic here!”
Tang Tianjiao didn’t care about his cold attitude, “The flute sound just now wasn’t played by Xia Yourong; that was my desk mate, Xia Ye!”
