Chapter 674
Huang Rong, however, was much calmer.
She naturally adjusted her posture
to lean more comfortably in his arms.
She glared at him with feigned reproach and said:
"We mother and daughter are chatting about some private matters; do you have to manage that too?"
Gu Hanyuan raised an eyebrow.
He laughed lightly:
"Since you put it that way, I am actually quite curious."
Huang Rong rolled her eyes beautifully.
"Husband, you want to pry into a daughter's private matters?"
Gu Hanyuan did not mind.
He said with a gentle laugh:
"Since Rong'er is unwilling to say, then forget it."
Seeing that Gu Hanyuan did not continue to press,
Huang Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, inciting one's own mother to help compete for favor was not something that sounded good.
Her heart stirred.
She said with a charming laugh:
"Husband, it has been a long time since we played the zither and flute together, hasn't it?"
Gu Hanyuan laughed lightly:
"Since Rong'er has such elegant interest, I shall naturally accompany you."
Under Feng Heng's curious gaze,
the Mingfeng Zither appeared in Gu Hanyuan's hands.
And Huang Rong also returned to her room to retrieve the jade flute he had gifted her back then.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Once again, they played the "Laughing Proudly in the Jianghu" melody together.
Their state of mind was already completely different.
The light and melodious tune, carrying lingering threads of affection, resonated throughout Peach Blossom Island.
Gu Hanyuan, in fluttering white robes, was dashing and handsome.
Huang Rong, peerlessly beautiful, was like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
The two looked at each other affectionately from time to time.
Feng Heng looked with envy at the two, who were a talented man and a beautiful woman, appearing like a match made in heaven.
Every note seemed to drill into the lake of her heart,
stirring up ripples.
When the song ended,
Feng Heng still felt a lingering desire for more.
She could not help but ask:
"What is the name of this piece?"
Huang Rong said with a beaming smile:
"'Laughing Proudly in the Jianghu'."
Upon hearing this, Feng Heng praised:
"'Laughing Proudly in the Jianghu'? Truly a good piece, and a good name."
However, to her surprise,
Huang Rong handed the jade flute in her hand to her.
"I heard from Father that Mother was also a highly talented woman back then. I would like to witness it."
Feng Heng was somewhat moved.
She hesitated:
"Is this really appropriate?"
Seeing this, Gu Hanyuan also took out the "Laughing Proudly in the Jianghu" score and handed it to her.
He said with a gentle laugh:
"I would also very much like to play a duet with you, Madam."
A flush rose on Feng Heng's clear and refined face.
She understood the subtext of Gu Hanyuan's words.
She hesitated for a moment.
Huang Rong's previous persuasion still echoed in her ears.
She sighed lightly and took the jade flute and the score.
Not long after,
the melody of "Laughing Proudly in the Jianghu" sounded once again.
