The Devil's Sleeping Beauty

Lu Yifeng stayed at home for the following days but even if he did, he would still work in the office near his room. He would read files and would hold a video call meetings.

Meanwhile, Xia Meiren became so busy in preparing for her concert.

It was a good thing that Lu Yifeng hired a personal nanny for Little Melon since both of them were busy, no one would be able to take care of him in the day. Although there would be times where Little Melon would join Xia Meiren in playing the piano.

"My mother will be coming to your concert." Lu Yifeng said while he was sitting on the sofa with some files in his hand.

They were in the music room and Lu Yifeng was there to listen to her practice while he was doing the work.

Xia Meiren was sitting on his opposite, she was holding a cup of tea. She was currently in her break. "Mm, okay."

"We will have to act as a real couple in front of her." He turned to look at her reaction.

Xia Meiren nodded her head, "Okay."

Despite feeling nervous when she thought about meeting his mother, Xia Meiren was calm in the outside. She doesn’t have any violent reaction when Lu Yifeng told her that they should act as a couple in front of his mother since this was actually written in the contract.

Whenever they are in front of other people, they were to act as a real couple in front of them. Xia Meiren was willing to go along with it since after her concert, she will have to start her plans against Lu Yifeng.

She doesn’t love him. She only has hate for him that’s why her mind is set in destroying him.

Finally, the day of her concert arrive. It was a formal concert where a lot of famous people will be attending since Xia Meiren is an international pianist.

The media took photos of the people who walked down the red carpet of Beijing Concert Hall’s entrance.

Everyone who arrived in the concert wore formal dresses and suits.

Of course Xia Meiren was not the only one who will be continuously playing the piano, she invited some guests for her concert.

Lu Yifeng was sitting in the front row, making sure that he has the best view for his wife’s performance.

Not long after, the concert started.

Xia Meiren was wearing a beautiful navy blue silk dress. She played a few famous piano pieces before she played some of her originals.

The concert hall was quiet since everyone was listening to her play. The younger generation who was forced tl come by their parents may find a concert like this boring but with Xia Meiren’s techniques and even the feelings she puts in every pieces, their attention was captured by her.

It was not long after that Xia Meiren would be playing her last piece. What surprised everyone was when Little Melon entered the stage while wearing a white suit.

He was so adorable and he walked calmly towards his mother.

Jing Yue, Lu Yifeng’s mother also attended the concert because of her son, also she wanted to see what kind of person he married that made him replace Bai Xiu Ying, his childhood friend and fiance.

Seeing a mini Lu Yifeng on stage softened her cold face. The moment she saw the news about the comparison between Lu Yifeng and Little, she couldn’t believe her eyes and she started having a mixed feelings for Xia Meiren and her son.

On stage, when Xia Meiren and Little Melon started playing the piano together. The people who watched was amazed when they saw how the boy played.

Little Melon was a genius like his mother when it comes on piano. When Xia Meiren taught him, he started learning everything so easily. He was gifted in playing piano and Xia Meiren was so proud of him.

It was supposed to be Xia Meiren who would only be playing the piano for tonight’s last song but she finds this a good chance for Little Melon’s exquisite piano skills to be exposed.

They were playing one of Xia Meiren’s original pieces entitled, ’Tender Love’. The piece was new and Xia Meiren wrote it as a duet for her to play with her son. The music was so beautiful and lively that everyone started remembering their childhood days, the days they spend with their mother since the piece was about the love of a mother to her son and her son’s response to his mother’s love.

What was unique in Xia Meiren and Little Melon’s play was that they were able to bring the music into life. With this piece as Xia Meiren’s masterpiece, everyone was touched.

When they finished playing, the room was quiet. Xia Meiren helped Little Melon on going down from the high seat before they went in front and bowed.

One clap was heard before it was followed by others. The loud thunderous claps filled the hall.

"Bravo!" Everyone cheered.

Lu Yifeng was standing proudly as he watched his family on stage.

When Little Melon met his father’s eyes, he smiled happily at him and waved. In the eyes of many people, Xia Meiren was behaved. She just gave Lu Yifeng a small smile and a nod.

----

Xia Meiren’s dressing room was filled with flowers and gifts that came from a lot of her fans and known people.

Little Melon was eating a cupcake when Lu Yifeng arrived.

"Congratulations." He was holding a bouquet of flower.

Noticing a woman that resembles Lu Yifeng, Xia Meiren smiled as she accepted the bouquet. "Thank you, dear."

Lu Yifeng took the chance to hold her by her waist and kiss her cheek which surprised her. Xia Meiren was about to push him away when she heard him whisper in her ear. "Don’t spoil the act."
