Ye Wanwan was stunned by the slap. This was the 1st time that Wen Ruan had slapped her and slapped her hard! Ye Wanwan's eyes quickly reddened. Her eyelashes quivered as she ran out of the room, covering her red and swollen cheek in shame.

She bumped into Wen Jinzhang and Liu Shuying at the door.

Liu Shuying knew that Wen Ruan would never let Ye Wanwan tutor her. She was always playing games instead of doing her homework. Thus, she found an excuse to take two glasses of milk to them and dragged Wen Jinzhang along.

Wen Jinzhang's hopes had renewed for his good-for-nothing daughter when Wen Ruan agreed to let Ye Wanwan tutor her. Liu Shuying wanted to kill that hope totally and let him know that she was destined to be useless!

However, the person they saw at the door was Ye Wanwan, holding her cheek, with tears in her eyes.

"Sister Wanwan wanted to do her own practice and didn't have the time to tutor me, so I went to play the piano. It will be Dad's 40th birthday soon and I know that you like to listen to 'A Comme Amour', so I wanted to play it for you on that day."

"But Sister Wanwan said that I played badly and was disturbing her. So, I asked her to teach me and she scolded me by saying that I had no talent and was a failure in everything!"

Wen Ruan rubbed her fair and soft face against Wen Jinzhang's arms as she said in a soft voice, "Dad, I was angry because my pride was crushed. That's why I slapped her!"

Wen Ruan was going to be the death of Ye Wanwan. What happened to this good-for-nothing miss? She was getting even better at acting pathetic to gain sympathy than her.

Ye Wanwan said after taking in a deep breath, "Uncle Wen, I didn't say I am not going to teach her. But she didn't even know how to answer even one question. I told her that I will teach her after I am done. But, she deliberately started creating loud noises to disturb me. I only asked her to stop but I didn't crush her pride!"

Ye Wanwan went to her study desk and took out the two paper balls that she had stuffed into her ears. "I even stuffed my ears after she refused to listen. I really don't know why Ruanruan wants to tell lies and smear me after she slapped me?"

Wen Ruan knew Ye Wanwan wasn't going to admit it easily so she asked Ye Wanwan in a trembling voice. "Sister Wanwan, didn't you say that my piano skills were horrible?"

"Isn't that the truth? Ruanruan, don't play if you are not good at it. There will be a lot of guests at Uncle Wen's 40th birthday party. Are you trying to embarrass Uncle Wen?"

Wen Ruan didn't say anything further. Instead, she sat in front of the piano and began playing with her slender fingers.

Ye Wanwan wasn't worried at all. She was waiting for Wen Ruan to play horribly and reveal her true colors. However, the horrendous sounds didn't appear, instead, a melodious tune filled up the entire study.

The girl sitting in front of the piano was fair and cute, just like an angel on Earth. Her slender fingers were dancing across the black and white keys. They were not rusty and were cleverly producing silvery sounds. Her long and curly eyelashes were lowered and she looked focused, absorbed in the melody.

It was a beautiful sound, as if it were a mountain spring flowing out of the ravine.

Wen Jinzhang seemed to remember something while watching Wen Ruan with a distracted gaze. It was as if he was seeing someone else through her.

Enchanted and deeply in love.

A cold brutal look flashed across Liu Shuying's eyes and her expression changed when she saw Wen Jinzhang's gaze.
