Chapter 798 - 15.17
"The moon is so beautiful today, don’t you think?" Young General Fei said as he walked with Bai Shijue to the firework festival.
Bai Shijue looked up, and he smiled, "The night of a blue moon is my favorite time. I always play Guqin to fill my time during the blue moon night. Because the atmosphere is very cold, yet serene."
"Young Master Bai can play Guqin?" Young General Fei clicked his tongue full of admiration. "It’s very rare to see a young man able to play Guqin. You must’ve been learning how to play one since you’re a kid."
"It is not a difficult music instrument, Young General. You just have to pluck the right string in the correct mood," Bai Shijue explained.
Of course, that wasn’t the case with General Fei. He was raised in a military family. He saw his little sister trying to learn Guqin, but she could not play it well because it was just so difficult.
"I’d love to listen to you playing Guqin," General Fei said boldly. He didn’t hold any thought in his head, especially when he was courting someone.
The more he talked with this man, the more he realized that Bai Shijue would be the perfect soulmate to him, or to anyone, really. That was why Young General Fei was thinking about marrying Bai Shijue as soon as possible, so there wouldn’t be anyone who could snatch Bai Shijue from him.
"Playing Guqin? I can play a song or two while we’re watching the firework tonight," Bai Shijue said. "There is a small pavilion near the lake. It’s my private property not far from here. I left one of my spare Guqin there. So if Young General Fei doesn’t mind, we can sit there and enjoy the firework festival from afar while I play the Guqin for you."
"That would be perfect!" Young General Fei got excited after thinking of a great situation where they could watch the firework festival from afar, away from other people and all the whispers of the old women who thought they were couples and two men in love were absolutely disgusting.
