Early the next morning, Lin Xuan could not wait to pull Zheng Meng towards the venue of the competition.
Because it was a competition, in order to prevent the two families from playing tricks, the venue of the competition was held in a high-end coffee shop in Shanghai.
The two of them drove Zheng Meng's red Volkswagen all the way there. Although the venue was less than ten kilometers away from where they lived, it took them more than an hour to get there because of the traffic jam.
Zoan coffee
It was a high-end western coffee restaurant that was a national chain. There was only one in the entire Shanghai. The decoration was very high-end. In addition to providing entertainment for the upper-class people in Shanghai, there were also a few high-end pianos placed in the western coffee restaurant. They were all directly shipped over by world-famous piano manufacturers, which attracted many famous pianists to come and play in the western coffee restaurant.
It was precisely because of the performance of famous pianists that those upper-class people would choose to come to the Left Bank Cafe to relax. This was to reflect their status.
When the two of them arrived at Left Bank Cafe, there were already many people gathered in the cafe. Some of them were here to drink coffee, while the others had heard that there would be two piano stores sparring here today, so they specially rushed over to enjoy themselves.
After all, Changchuan Music Store was one of the top music stores in Shanghai, and the musician in charge was also a very famous pianist in Shanghai. Usually, this level of pianist could only be heard in concerts. Although it was classy, there were too many people.
At this moment, in the cafe, due to the small number of people and the style, they could naturally enjoy the feast of seeing and hearing!
The coffee shop was decorated in a very stylish manner. There were neat rows of orange sofa seats, black and silver marble tiles, and crisscrossed patterns on the tiles. There were simple lily hanging lamps that emitted a goose egg yellow light. The coffee shop was surrounded by huge floor-to-ceiling windows that allowed one to see the scenery outside from the coffee shop.
It gave off a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.
When the two of them walked in, a waiter in a black uniform led them to an empty sofa seat. He bowed with one hand behind his back and the other in front of him. He greeted politely,"May I know what you want?”
"Give me a cup of cappuccino, thank you!”Zheng Meng said with some uneasiness.
"Give me a glass of lemon juice!" Lin Xuan said with a smile.
He was not used to drinking coffee.
"A cup of cappuccino and a glass of lemon juice. Okay, please wait a moment!”The waiter nodded and put away the menu. He said,"Oh right, today, Shanghai Changchuan Musical Instrument Store and Zhiyuan piano hall will be here to compare their piano skills. There will also be many famous pianists commenting. If the two of you are interested, you can listen!”
After saying this, the waiter smiled, bowed, and left.
After the waiter's figure completely disappeared in front of him, Lin Xuan sighed to the absent-minded Zheng Meng beside him,"The life of the rich is really good!”
It could be seen from the polite behavior of the waiters in such a coffee shop.
Zheng Meng was still worried about her father's Zhiyuan piano studio, so she was a little absent-minded. At this moment, she was sitting on the chair when she suddenly saw a familiar figure. She hurriedly went up to him." Dad!”
"It's Little Sleepyhead!" A sweaty middle-aged man turned around when he heard the voice. When he saw Zheng Meng, he forced a smile and walked over. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said,""Xiao Yan, did you find a famous pianist to help us?”
"Dad, Changchuan Musical Instrument Store is too despicable. They used despicable means to win over all the famous pianists in Shanghai, and the remaining people are no match for the pianist from Changchuan Musical Instrument Store.”Zheng Meng said with some annoyance.
"Sigh! What should he do! The competition is about to start. If we can't find a famous pianist and fail, our Zhiyuan piano hall's status in Shanghai will plummet!”Hearing Zheng Meng's words, the middle-aged man said sadly.
With that, the middle-aged man looked at Lin Xuan again and was stunned for a moment before asking,"And this is?"
"Dad, this is my friend, Lin Xuan!”Zheng Meng introduced.
"Hello, Uncle!" Lin Xuan greeted with a smile.
"Yes!" Zheng Meng's father nodded his head worriedly and said,""Xiao Xue, you stay here and play with your friends. I'll contact some old friends. I don't believe that I won't even be willing to help a famous pianist!”
Zheng Meng's father said as he took out his phone and walked to a quiet place to make a call.
Zheng Meng looked at his father's actions and said with an unpleasant expression,""I'm so angry! "Those so-called famous pianists usually call my father brothers when they have nothing to do. I didn't expect them to be unwilling to help at the critical moment. If only my Uncle Chen was here. He definitely wouldn't be afraid of Changchuan Musical Instrument Store. Unfortunately, he's overseas to attend a concert and can't make it back in time..."
Just as Zheng Meng said that, a young man dressed in fancy clothes walked over and looked at Zheng Meng with a frivolous look. He sized him up and said,""Zheng Meng, I told you I would make you regret it! How was it? Should he reconsider? As long as you agree to be my girlfriend, I'll make my father stop this spar!”
Looking at this man, Zheng Meng said with disgust,""Bai Zihao, you're so despicable! He actually used such a despicable method!"
"How can this be called despicable? We're just sparring in the piano world!”Bai Zihao said proudly. He looked at Zheng Meng with greed in his eyes,""Zheng Meng, you have one last chance. As long as you agree, my father will stop immediately!”
"Let me tell you, Bai Zihao, just give up on this idea! I will never agree to be your girlfriend!”Zheng Meng was so angry that his entire body was trembling as he said angrily.
When he heard Zheng Meng reject him without hesitation, Bai Zihao's originally smug face turned ashen. A hint of darkness appeared in his eyes as he said fiercely,""Zheng Rong, don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. Since you don't agree, then you can wait for your father's piano studio to go bankrupt! When the time comes, I want you to kneel down and beg me!”
" You…" Zheng Meng still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan looked at Bai Zihao indifferently and pretended to be surprised,""Where did this dog come from? Waiter, waiter, hurry up and get out!”
"Who are you?" Hearing Lin Xuan's words, Bai Zihao realized that there was someone standing beside Zheng Meng. He was first stunned before asking.
"I will never change my name. My surname is Dad, and my name is Dad!”
"Tyrant?" Bai Zihao muttered to himself when he heard this name. A hint of doubt appeared in his eyes. Was there anyone with the surname Ba among the Hundred Families?
At this moment, the furious Zheng Meng burst into laughter when he heard Bai Zihao repeat the story.
Only then did Bai Zihao react, and a hint of anger appeared on his face.""Brat, you actually dare to play with me. Do you believe that I won't let you survive in Shanghai?”
