Chapter 592: Dumbfounded Master

"Dad..." She wanted to tell her father not to do it, but she couldn't find a good reason to persuade him.

After her hesitation, Xia Ling confirmed her fears. "This money is the pianist's tip, right?"

Nangong Bohai looked at her more disdainfully. This girl really led the life of a whore and expected a monument to her chastity. She was probably afraid that people would say that she accepted a breakup fee and the humiliation of it. Whatever, as long as she was willing to leave Li Lei, it didn't matter if the money was considered a pianist's tip or a breakup fee. Thus, he said, "That's right. It's a tip for the pianist."

Xia Ling stretched out her white graceful fingers, gently picked up the card, and handed it to the man who had just walked over. "You should quickly thank Mr. Nangong. This is a tip for you."

"What?!"

"What?!"

"Rubbish!"

The Nangong family's father and daughter and the entire crowd gasped. What sort of situation was this? Could it be that the tip was not for Xia Ling?!

The man who had just walked over was the former pianist, and his face turned blank. "What's this?"

"Mr. Nangong gave you 50 million. Oh yes, there's also a condition. After you accept the money, you can't have any ambiguous relationship with Skyart Entertainment or Big Boss Li Lei. However, you should relax." Xia Ling smiled. "Boss Li is heterosexual. I can assure you that he's not interested in men."

The pianist was astounded.

The crowd was also astounded.

"You... you... you!" Nangong Bohai was about to go crazy. "This 50 million is for you! The person who also wants to sever ties with Li Lei is also you!"

"How can it be me?" Xia Ling innocently tilted her head. "I'm not even the pianist. I just played two impromptu songs. If you don't believe me, you can ask the lobby manager. The resident pianist here is this man, not me." She looked very wronged.

Besides them, there were guests who couldn't hold back their laughter.

Exactly, how could the girl whom Second Young Master Li was interested in be so weak and be scared off by 50 million and some threats? No wonder she had to clarify a few times with Nangong Bohai that this money was a tip for the pianist. It turned out that she had planned to extort a sum of money from him for the pianist from the start!

The expressions of the Nangong family's father and daughter were very ugly.

Nangong Bohai was a person with status and power. Usually, people would respectfully bow to him wherever he walked. At this time, after being tricked by someone, he was humiliated and enraged and was about to explode at the scene. "Ye Xingling, don't be so shameless!"

However, Xia Ling didn't mind. "There are so many witnesses here who heard you saying that the money was for the pianist. I'm not a pianist. I'm just someone playing the piano for fun. Mr, Nangong, you are someone of status. Are you sure that you want to take back your words?"

Nangong Bohai's face was ashen with anger.

Recently, the Nangong family's business was not doing very well. 50 million was not an insignificant sum to them. If it were used to settle his daughter's love rival, it would have been a necessary investment, but spending it on a tip for an unknown pianist was just absurd.

The surrounding guests were of high status, and anyone that could enter the club's premises was of a certain caliber. Although it was painful, he couldn't take back his words in front of so many people. If he retracted his words, he would be in a very awkward position.

Xia Ling smiled faintly at him and then looked at Nangong Qingya.

Nangong Qingya's heart skipped a beat after Xia Ling looked at her.

"Sure enough, everyone from the Nangong Family is the same." Xia Ling said with implied meaning.

Nangong Bohai didn' understand what she meant, but Nangong Qingya did. If he dared to take back his words and not give the 50 million tip, Xia Ling would talk about the 30 billion debt.

Nangong Qingya would rather die than let her family find out about her 30 billion debt. If she were exposed, her position in the Nangong family that she worked so hard for would be ruined, and she would have to give it to her other sisters. If that happened, it would be worse than being killed.

She would choose the lesser of the two evils.

Nangong Qingya made a quick decision and advised her father. "Dad, forget it. 50 million doesn't mean much for the Nangong Family. Let's just pretend that we're rewarding a dog."

"How could you say that?" Before Nangong Bohai could respond, Xia Ling was already unhappy. "Do you know how good and accomplished this pianist is? How could you swear at others as you please? I'm afraid that a finger from this person is worth many more times than your entire body." She dared to guarantee that this pianist was a master. His insights were extraordinary, and few people in the music industry could reach his standard.

The lobby manager was also alarmed and rushed over.

He didn't hear their argument but listened to the last part of Xia Ling's speech. At this time, he bowed and said to the pianist, "Master Mu Nan, are you ok? I'm very sorry that I'm late and you ran into trouble."

Master Mu Nan was dumbfounded.

He was also unsure if he was in trouble. Like the manager, he didn't hear most of the conversation. However, he randomly heard about the 50 million yuan.

There was an uproar in the crowd. "It turns out that he's Mu Nan!"

Some were also unaware. "Who is Mu Nan? Why is he called a master?"

"Don't you know? He's the highest ranked master in the piano world. Tickets to his concerts are priceless. However, his temperament is a bit strange as he doesn't like to have concerts and wanders about frequently. If not, he could earn even more than 50 million in minutes."

"Oh..."

"Oh..."

"Oh..."

Everyone suddenly realized that this pianist looked unremarkable at first glance, but when they observed closely, he really had a unique temperament that set him apart from ordinary people. It was very distinct.

"I just know that one of your fingers is worth more than a so-called lady from a noble family." Xia Ling smiled slyly like a fox. Although she didn't know that he was a master, she understood music and knew what sort of fingers were irreplaceable.

After hearing what she said, Mu Nan also smiled. This girl was quite amusing. She said that his hands were more valuable than any lady from a noble family, but so was her voice. "I heard you sing during your concert." Mu Nan said sincerely. "The value of your voice is not any lower than the value of my fingers."

Both of them smiled at each other with a sort of mutual understanding.

On the other hand, the father and daughter of the Nangong family were about to explode in anger. They were really unlucky. Initially, Nangong Bohai wanted to teach this female star a lesson, but who knew that things would turn out this way? Although they didn't know who Mu Nan was, after seeing the respectful expressions of the crowd, they didn't dare to curse anymore. It would be disastrous if they offended someone they should not offend.

"Forget it, let's go." Nangong Bohai decided that he didn't want his 50 million back. If he continued to entangle himself in this situation, there would not be a desirable outcome. Nangong Bohai and Nangong Qingya turned around and were about to leave.

"Slow down." However, Xia Ling refused to let them go so easily. "Nangong Qingya, you haven't apologized to Master Mu Nan."
