BXBX NOVEL Chapter 35 Attitude
The meaning of Lin Ruoxue was clear, she had no such feelings for him, and this was the first time Lin Ruoxue truly expressed rejection.
In the past, Lin Ruoxue had also declined his various invitations, always using work as an excuse, but the recent statement about avoiding misunderstandings was a clear expression of her stance.
Liu Qing felt a sudden surge of anger, calling her a tainted girl inside his mind, truly believing she was the epitome of chastity. He swore that sooner or later he would have her in his bed and see how reserved she could still be!
Of course, he would never show this thought, but Liu Qing was not willing to let go and quickly said:
"Ruoxue, this is the first row middle seat, why sit so far away?"
In his opinion, the middle of the first row was obviously the best position. Lin Ruoxue looked at him, hesitated to speak, obviously not wanting to hurt his pride since he was the Liu Family heir.
However, Su Chen didn't have so many scruples, and he chuckled:
"Young Master Liu, right? Do you understand concerts?"
"Nonsense, do you think I don't understand, and you, a driver, do?"
Liu Qing glanced at Su Chen and disdainfully said.
"Although I don't know much, I still know more than you, a young master," Su Chen said with a faint smile, "Only someone like you, an ignorant pretender, would say the first row is better than the sixth."
"What did you say?"
Immediate fire shot from Liu Qing's eyes; this mere driver dared to openly insult him by calling him a pretender—this was seeking death!
But because Lin Ruoxue was present, he didn't lash out immediately, otherwise he would have already instructed the nearby bodyguards to take action.
Lin Ruoxue was also taken aback when she heard Su Chen's words; he was Liu Qing, the heir of the Liu Family—when had he ever been cursed like this?
"Young Master Liu, don't be angry, Su Chen speaks without thinking, it wasn't intentional. I apologize on his behalf."
Lin Ruoxue said hurriedly; this guy was ultimately her husband and she didn't understand why the usually non-confrontational Su Chen suddenly became so sharp.
Liu Qing, truly the Liu Family heir, although furious enough to explode, still managed to control his temper and gritted his teeth as he spat out:
"Then you tell me, why is the sixth row better than the first?"
Su Chen, not caring about the other's murderous tone, explained as if educating a child:
"Because a typical concert doesn't just have one sound, the beautiful melody is composed of these sounds, and they need space to blend before forming a perfect melody. The positions in the first two or three rows hear sounds that haven't had enough time to blend fully, and many times the effect is actually the worst."
"Moreover, even the sound from a single performance needs the reflection of the ceiling, stage canopy, walls, including side walls, the ground, ceiling, stage canopy, and other multiple reflections to fully merge together before the sound can reach the most perfect realm!"
"Typical concert hall design positions the middle of the sixth to eighth rows as the area with the best sound effects, also known as the 'Emperor's spot.'"
"Young Master Liu, do you understand now?"
Su Chen looked at Liu Qing, his face clearly mocking.
Liu Qing felt a burning pain, he had not expected this broken driver to actually spout such a confusing spiel.
Liu Qing wouldn't know these things; he fundamentally disliked attending concerts and was even less likely to understand, he just pretended to love them to please Lin Ruoxue.
At this moment, Liu Qing felt as if he had been slapped in the face in public, his shame and anger reaching their peak, and his heart filled with hatred for Su Chen.
Lin Ruoxue's pretty face was also full of surprise as she gazed at Su Chen with a meaningful look. How could this guy, who seemed completely out of place at a sophisticated event like a concert, know so much?
Although Lin Ruoxue knew that rows 6-8 were the best seats at a concert, she didn't know the reasons behind it, which was not surprising since most people wouldn't study such things.
Although Liu Qing wished he could throw Su Chen into the river to feed the fish, he still behaved gracefully in front of Lin Ruoxue:
"Listening to Mr. Su today is more enlightening than reading books for ten years. Well then, I won't insist."
At this moment, Liu Qing had no face to invite Lin Ruoxue to sit in the first row, especially since Su Chen had clearly only taken out two tickets, obviously not intending to include him.
Seeing that it was about time, the trio headed inside, with Su Chen watching Liu Qing's back, his eyes narrowing slightly.
This Liu Qing was even more cunning than he had imagined, he would need to be more cautious.
Su Chen hadn't provoked Liu Qing today on a whim but had planned it all along; he wanted to see how much Liu Qing could endure.
After entering the concert hall, the three of them split up, Liu Qing sitting in the front while Lin Ruoxue naturally took her seat beside Su Chen in the middle of the sixth row.
People who came to the concert hall generally maintained high standards of behavior. Although the performance had not yet started, the audience was waiting quietly, with not a hint of uproar.
Right at eight o'clock, the stage lights came on, and a woman dressed in a classical qipao walked onto the stage; she was tonight's host.
With her signature smile and pleasant voice, she said:
"Welcome to the final stop of the Sara Global Concert, Jianghai, Huaxia. Let's enjoy a wonderful evening together."
The host repeated her greeting in both English and Chinese, and her introduction was concise as Sara had been extremely popular in the past two years, with countless fans worldwide; no lengthy introductions or emotional speeches were needed.
As soon as the host finished speaking, the audience erupted into enthusiastic applause.
After finishing her opening speech, the host withdrew, and the lights dimmed slightly. A huge cage-like object began to rise slowly from beneath the stage.
Suddenly, the cage lit up, and people then realized that it was made of crystal, shining brilliantly under the lights.
Inside the cage, there stood an egg-shaped oval object which, at that moment, began to slowly crack open.
A woman dressed in a snow-white long dress appeared inside. As soon as she appeared, the audience burst into an applause many times warmer than before, nearly lifting the roof off!
The audience, having expected Sara to start playing without a word as usual, was puzzled when she hesitated, which created a wave of surprise among them.
Backstage, Julia also felt a bit strange; a sense of unease grew in her heart, stemming from the man she had encountered during the day.
Sara stood on the stage, scanning the audience below and caught sight of the man who had haunted her dreams; uncontrollable tears twinkled in her gaze.
