Chapter 739: Chapter 313: Stop right there, you little thief!

A great philosopher with the last name Bao once said, "Strength can be temporary, but handsomeness is for life."

Su Huai found this profoundly true.

Thus, he gave those few steps on stage the flair of a runway model’s swagger.

The spotlight belatedly caught up with him, but he showed no reaction until he stood before the piano and finally extended his slender fingers, strumming a flurry of arpeggios on the keys.

No one in the audience was chatting anymore; all eyes were fixed on him.

It wasn’t until then that Gou Huai sat down on the piano stool and began to adjust the microphone.

"Hello, hello!"

The cool, showy man tested the microphone; his standard bass voice, amplified by the speakers, sent a shockwave through the theatre that drew gasps of awe.

The master control unwittingly added two spotlights on him, from three different angles altogether, illuminating every detail.

The students from the Big Data class were extremely excited.

"Wow! Huai is going to sing again!"

"Quick, quick, get closer and record it!"

"Don’t push, don’t push, you go over there!"

"I missed it last time; finally, I can see it live!"

"Dizzy, why is it a profile view again..."

However, Su Huai didn’t even want to leave them with a profile view.

He raised his hand to block the light and said in a deep voice, "Control booth, please turn off the front stage spotlights, thank you."

With a snap, only two spotlights remained, one cast sideways from the side of the stage and another from the back to the front, causing Su Huai to become a blurry silhouette in the strong light.

But this only made him seem more ethereal.

Bright light passed through his silvery-white short hair, refracting a loose halo and igniting strands of fringe that glowed with a platinum fire.

His black shirt sagged, merging into the shadow under his chin, with his Adam’s apple faintly visible within.

His bare arms were too blurred to see the muscle lines, making his fingers seem even longer and more delicate.

Such an effect distorted the image; from below the stage looking up, one could not see any details of Su Huai, but this only fueled the imagination to the greatest degree—

As if he were a jade prince, that was the overarching image.

Beyond such a generalization, however you choose to depict him, even if it’s not him, it still surpasses him.

"Wow..."

A low murmur of amazement erupted once more around the room.

Many did not understand why Su Huai requested the front lights be turned off. Silly Girl quietly asked, to which Red Bull solemnly replied, "You don’t get it, do you? Mr. Su has such an artistic pursuit. He doesn’t want the audience to be attracted by his beauty and thus neglect his performance. That’s why he wanted backlighting..."

"Oh!~~~"

The girls suddenly realized and admired Su Huai even more.

Tang Xian’er’s eyes darted around, looking for something before hurriedly grabbing a bouquet of flowers and handing them to Gu Jiuyue.

In the face of a somewhat surprised Princess Gu, she smiled sweetly and pointed to the stage.

Quanquan was dumbfounded: My goodness! I’m living with the Gu Family, and I never thought of brown-nosing like this; where are you from, king of curling?

Pei Shuyu laughed softly, unable to hold back her amusement.

Wang Siming stared at Su Huai on the stage, stunned for quite a while, then suddenly burst out in frustration, "Damn it! Does he have to be so professional about being a poser?"

The young master from Taikang sighed, "It’s the new waves that push the old waves forward..."

Wan Guohao, nursing his hurt feelings in the corner, punched the wall and growled, "Damn it! That opportunity was supposed to be mine, you brat; I’m not finished with you!"

Sheng Xue was still dazed from Su Huai’s previous remarks, and hasn’t recovered yet. Upon hearing this, he sighed heavily.

"Hao, don’t take him too seriously, that kid is wickedly tricky..."

"Pah!"

Wan Guohao was not only defiant, but his hostility deepened, "Scared of what? If I miss today, there will be plenty of chances to hit him big time!"

Sheng Xue wasn’t optimistic, thinking: How could we, the second-generation idlers, ever win against someone with that kind of logical thinking and insight?

We’re not even playing on the same field, alright...

He was scared and didn’t want to engage in such foolishness anymore, so he placated, "Let’s listen to what he’s going to play first, Hao. You’re the professional; perhaps you’ll be able to mock him back soon..."

The buzz never ceased.

But indeed, everyone began to look forward to Su Huai’s performance.

The young man sat steadily amidst the light and spoke softly, "A Japanese song ’Moonlight,’ originally performed by Gui Shu Qianxun, covered by Su Huai, dedicated to the most beautiful Gugu."

"Ah!"

Before he even finished speaking, Gu Jiuyue covered her mouth, the excitement in her eyes nearly spilling over.

She never expected Su Huai would choose such a song.

While everyone else was baffled, Gu was filled with joy—He remembered! He had it all in his heart!

That night, she had only hummed a few lines of the song, and Susu had gone out of his way to learn the whole piece. Such thoughtfulness, such a capacity for surprise.

"Susu, you can do it!"

She gently shook her fist and then marched forward, holding her phone high.

Initially, she hadn’t wanted to record it personally, as photographers were recording the whole event, but now she changed her mind. She wanted to capture every second of Susu singing this song herself.

As the piano keys were gently pressed, the uniquely mournful prelude of "Moonlight" quietly flowed forth.

Su Huai had transposed the original score to the key of C, making it softer and more soothing.

Amidst the amazed or stunned gazes of all, he sang the first line of lyrics with his clear and standard E3 forward vocal placement.

"I am GOD’S CHILD

kono fuhai shita sekai ni otosareta

How do I live on such a field?

konna mono no tame ni umareta n janai..."

His voice now came from Gu’s innate talent: the Voice of Nature.
