Seeing that Meng Qingqian didn't want to say any more, Di Jinling wisely didn't speak again, but Le Jiuxi was secretly happy in her heart. Just when the three of them had different ideas in their hearts, in the center of the hall, after the Takishui bell passed, the cake-cutting ceremony did not start immediately, but Shi Yun personally turned on the LCD TV.
As the screen lit up, amid the puzzled gazes of many guests in the hall, the image of a handsome young man appeared on the screen. Meng Qingqi listened to the address used by this young man to greet Shi Mintian and the others, and realized that this person was Shen Tianpeng's son Shen Lang, because he was studying abroad now and couldn't rush back to attend Shi Yun's birthday party, so he chose to show up in this way to congratulate Shi Yun.
From the heart-to-ear conversations of some of the guests, Meng Qingli further learned that Shen Lang has been known as a musical genius since he was a child, and now he is studying at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Vienna, the capital of music, the world's most famous conservatory. However, what surprised Meng Qingqian the most was that it was said that Shen Lang was still the fiancé of Shi Yun and the Shen family.
When hearing this, Meng Qingxian's first thought was that he couldn't imagine that the so-called "political marriage" he had seen in many books would actually make him meet in reality, but no matter how he looked at Shi Mintian, he didn't look like the kind of person who sold his daughter's happiness for the sake of profit, plus seeing Shi Yun's happy expression when he saw Shen Lang, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is very good, and the situation of combining purely for profit should not appear in Shi Yun.
Unleashed by his imagination, Meng Qingli didn't know at this time that the young man on the screen would become one of his biggest enemies in the future.
"Xiaoyun, I wish you a happy birthday. Although I can't come back in time to celebrate you, as compensation, I'm playing a song for you now, and I hope you'll enjoy it. Shen Lang on the screen smiled, he was gentle and elegant, even Meng Qingxi, who was also a man, had to admit that he was the most attractive of the same age he had ever seen, and it was conceivable how popular he would be with women in real life.
When he saw the violin that Shen Lang took out, Di Jinling, who had been acting careless for some reason, suddenly showed a slightly surprised expression, which made him interested in one thing that also didn't pay too much attention over there.
"Sister Jin Ling, is there anything strange about the violin?" Le Jiuxi said curiously.
"That violin is not weird, but famous, this Shen Lang is really not simple, in order to please Shi Yun, he actually used Stradiba." The corners of Di Jinling's mouth curled slightly, and he said without knowing whether to praise or depreciate.
"Stradiba?" Meng Qingqian was also interested in the conversation between the two women and interjected.
"'Stradiba' is the name of the violin, to be precise, it is the general name of the stringed instruments made by the famous Italian craftsman Antony and Stradiba in the 17th ~ 18th century, although strictly speaking, Stradiba also includes double basses, but almost most of them are violins, there are about 600 of them, and this Shen Lang is one of them." Di Jinling glanced at Meng Qingqian amusefully and explained.
"Hearing you say that, I already know that this violin must be ridiculously expensive." Meng Qingqian smiled bitterly, he tried his best to observe the violin in Shen Lang's hand, but he couldn't tell what the difference was from an ordinary violin, and he didn't know how Di Jinling could tell it.
"That's right, the cheapest Stradiba on the market has to buy about 1.5 million, if it is the best quality work between 1720~1740, it will be at least more than 8 million, and the real collectors will not take it out and sell it." Di Jinling nodded.
"Ahem...... Are you kidding? That piece of wood is worth more than a million, or even eight million? Meng Qingqian almost exclaimed, it wasn't that he didn't believe Di Jinling's words, but he felt that it was too exaggerated, and he couldn't accept it for a while.
"If it is purely based on its own value, a violin is not worth the price even if the sound quality is good, but there are many items in the world whose value does not come from the object itself, but from the fame attached to the object." Di Jinling shrugged his shoulders and said disapprovingly and a little sarcastically.
Meng Qingxuan didn't speak again, but secretly sighed in his heart that the world of the real rich was really not something he could imagine, and when he looked at Shi Yun and Takishui Ling, who seemed to be not far away from him, he once again felt how far away the distance between the two sides was, it was so unreachable. And Di Jinling is the same, if she wasn't born in a wealthy family, how could she know so much about this knowledge?
Suddenly, all the lights in the hall went out, and only the eighteen candles inserted on the cake representing Shi Yun's age still radiated light.
Shen Lang on the screen finally started his playing, the melodious sound of the piano came out of the screen, full of cheerful feelings, far and near, like a dream, even if Meng Qingqian didn't know music, he had to admit that Shen Lang's piano sound had a moving appeal. If he was willing to play a piece for a woman alone, probably most women in the world would be moved by him, and Shi Yun closed his eyes intoxicated after hearing the sound of the piano, and a happy smile on his lips seemed to prove it.
At this moment, a person who looked like a bodyguard suddenly walked to Shi Mintian's side from the side door, and then whispered to him. Meng Qingqian guessed that it must be those unconscious bodyguards who were finally discovered, and couldn't help but pay attention, and when she saw Shi Mintian still smiling all the time after hearing the news, she couldn't help but admire herself.
"Do you feel a little jealous?" Meng Qingqian also wanted to see what Shi Mintian would do next, but Di Jinling suddenly leaned into his ear and whispered.
"Jealous of what?" Meng Qingqian was stunned, and for a while she couldn't figure out what Di Jinling meant.
"Of course, it's jealousy, it turns out that Shi Yun has already become famous." Di Jin said with a smile, full of ridicule.
