Although the boss spoke easily, Ang Youyong would not take him for real. He had been on good terms with the boss for a few years, but this time, he was asking for help.
After anxiously waiting for another few minutes, Ang Youyong finally could not sit still anymore. He found an excuse to run out and see if Lin Xi was back, which was why he anxiously shouted at Lin Xi.
Pulling Lin Xi's hand, they ran towards the quiet room on the second floor. Ang Youyong did not give Lin Xi a chance to react at all, with his two hundred kilogram body, even if Lin Xi wanted to fight back, he would not be able to do so.
Second floor, the best quiet room out of all the Jingyi House!
Ang Youyong dragged his and Lin Xi in one after the other, seemingly running in together. He even laughed heartily, and said: "Haha, Brother Yu, we brothers have returned. We really made you wait."
Following Ang Youyong into the quiet room, Lin Xi saw a tall and sturdy man dressed in casual attire, sitting at the main seat casually and holding a long string of prayer beads in his left hand. He didn't know what material the prayer beads were made from, but his entire body was emitting a lustrous, and it was extremely dazzling.
Without waiting for the boss on the main seat to slip away, Ang Youyong was anxious to introduce him to Lin Xi. He smiled and said: "Brother Xi, this is Boss Qin, hehe, he is a renowned jeweller, with him, you can definitely appraise him!"
With that, he pointed at Lin Xi and smiled to Qin Yu: "Brother Yu, this is the brother that I've told you about. His name is Lin Xi, is he not as handsome as me?"
Lin Xi immediately ignored Ang Youyong's last sentence, and sternly shouted at Qin Yu: "Boss Qin!"
Qin Yu wrapped the prayer beads around his wrist a few times, then walked over to shake Lin Xi's hand. He laughed heartily: "Haha, Lin Xi right? Why do you look so foreign?
Lin Xi's hand held onto Qin Yu's, and he immediately felt the pressure lessen by a lot. He gently smiled and said: "Big Brother Qin, I just went out to take a stroll …"
Lin Xi had not finished speaking, but Qin Yu's gaze suddenly turned towards the quiet room door, and called out to him: "Zhiyan girl, quickly come in, your zither playing is getting better and better, it has been so long since I've seen you improve so much."
Towards Qin Yu's sudden greeting, Lin Xi was not the least bit displeased. Instead, he turned around and looked in the direction of the quiet room's entrance.
The next moment, Lin Xi suddenly froze in place. He turned around to look outside the door only to see a girl leisurely walking in. The moment he saw the girl, a word suddenly popped out from within his mind — — national beauty fragrance!
Because aside from that word, Lin Xi couldn't think of any other word to describe her.
This girl was too beautiful, as though she had walked out of a painting. Even though Lin Xi thought that he had reached the level of "Heart of Tranquil Water", he was still subconsciously attracted by her appearance. It was not because he had any ill intentions towards her, but because he was truly attracted by her beauty and did not want to look away.
If really to describe, it can only say that the skin like creamy, picturesque, do not put on makeup and color like the morning sunset, rather like "the clouds want to dress, the spring wind blowing screen thick" the truth.
The girl wore a light green cape, which accentuated her perfect figure. Her long black hair draped over her shoulders, revealing her pink neck, making her appear even more slender.
However, there seemed to be a faint sadness in her eyes. Although it was hidden well, it was still seen by Lin Xi.
Seeing the faint sadness in the girl's eyes, Lin Xi thought of Lin Daiyu from "Dream of the Red Chamber". It was as if their eyes were identical, it seemed like this girl also had her own story.
And what Lin Xi did not expect was that the sound of nature that made him lose himself in it just now had come from the hands of this girl in front of him. This also proved that she had an extraordinary story.
At that time, the girl wore a faint smile, leisurely walked into the quiet room, and said in a soft voice: "Uncle Yu, you're laughing at me."
Qin Yu laughed as he pointed at the girl and introduced her to Lin Xi. His tone carried a little pride: "This girl is called Zhang Zhiyan and according to her seniority, she can be considered my niece. Haha, did you hear the sound of the zither just now? It was my niece who played it.
Hearing Qin Yu's praise, Zhang Zhiyan gave a gentle and refined smile, like a lady from an ancient family. Or rather, it could be said that she was a lady from a noble family, like a goddess from the heavens.
After knowing Zhang Zhiyan's name, Lin Xi stretched out his right hand, and greeted him with sincerity and courtesy: "Hello, I'm Lin Xi.
Or perhaps, he felt that this sentence did not reflect his admiration towards Zhang Zhiyan's zither arts, Lin Xi paused for a moment before continuing to praise him, "When I have not heard this song, this song and You are both dead. When I hear this song again, I immediately understand the meaning of this song."
In regards to Lin Xi's praise, Zhang Zhiyan merely smiled politely, like a gentle and graceful Jiangnan woman, showing off her extremely good upbringing. However, Lin Xi felt cold and distant from her smile.
That's right, it was coldness and estrangement.
Lin Xi was a little confused. He wondered if she had made a mistake and thought that he was purposely showing off his literary skills or that he was deliberately using this opportunity to get close to her.
The heavens are merciful, Lin Xi only praised her zither skills from the bottom of his heart.
But Lin Xi did not mind, the two of them had only met once, and if they met again in the future, they would talk about it, so they just laughed it off.
In fact, Lin Xi's final words of praise for her zither skills also had a origin. The origin of the praise was Wang Yangming had written in his < Encyclopedia >, which read as follows: "When you don't look at this flower, the flower and your heart will both die down; when you look at this flower, the flower's color will become clear for a while."
Legend has it that one spring, Wang Yangming and his friend went to the mountains to play, and his friend pointed to a flower among the rocks and said to Wang Yangming, "You often say that there is no justice in the heart, and nothing in the heart. Everything in the world is within your heart, controlled by it. Look at this flower, blooming and falling in the mountains, can your heart control it? Did your heart open it, and your heart let it fall, and then it fell? "
Wang Yangming's answer was very interesting: "When you are not looking at this flower, it is as silent as your heart; when you are looking at this flower, the color of the flower becomes clear for a moment; and you will know that this flower is not outside your heart."
What Wang Yangming meant was: Of course the flower falls, but whether or not it can disturb my heart is up to me to decide. Even if the world were to collapse, flood the sky, thunder and lightning, rain, as long as my heart was at peace, I would always be in the Peach Blossom Origin, a sunny day.
