Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 217 - 218: Ten Sides Ambush

Many people turned their gaze toward Granny Tang.

Granny Tang’s fame had spread far and wide; after retiring from the cultural troupe, she became a distinguished instructor at the Xia Country Art Research Institute.

There were definitely no small number of people present who recognized her.

But for many, the primary reason they knew of her was because she was Tang Wu’s grandmother.

Bai Yuejie included.

It was the first time Bai Yuejie had heard Senior Sister sing live, and the song she chose was the notoriously difficult "Child."

The difficulty of this song lay not only in the melody but even more so in its emotions.

The hardest part was Tang Wu’s singing style.

Her unique technique had been imitated by countless people, but few could capture even a fraction of its essence.

Bai Yuejie had long known that Senior Sister was talented, but she had never imagined that she could move nearly half of the audience to tears with her singing.

Even Bai Yuejie herself couldn’t help but be swayed by the melody.

Facing such a person, Bai Yuejie felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

From childhood to adulthood, although she was physically weak, her sixth sense had always been more accurate than anyone else’s.

No one had ever made her feel this way before.

Aside from Tang Wu, this Senior Sister was the first.

She really, really resembled Tang Wu.

Senior Sister said, "Okay."

Bai Yuejie watched intently as Senior Sister stood on the stage, her heartbeat accelerating.

It was not unusual to play the guitar and harmonica while also knowing the piano.

But it was astonishing that she could also play the lute.

As one of Xia Country’s ancient traditional instruments, the lute’s complexity far surpassed these other instruments.

If one hadn’t practiced from a young age, how could they dare to declare before nearly a thousand people: "I know them all."

Bai Yuejie suddenly had a terrifying thought.

But she immediately dismissed it.

Tang Wu was already dead.

Tang Wu had long been dead!

No matter how much this person resembled Tang Wu, she couldn’t possibly be Tang Wu!

After all, her heart had been transplanted into Bai Yuejie’s body!

Bai Yuejie saw someone with a lute step onto the stage.

Senior Sister moved the piano bench aside naturally, positioning herself to face the nearly thousand spectators below with such poise it was as if the entire stage was hers alone, utterly fearless.

This kind of presence was not something easily achieved.

Granny Tang no longer spoke, watching her with anticipation.

And Senior Sister, with composed ease, cradled the lute vertically in her arms, checked the body of the lute out of habit, and then began to strum.

Shi Mei closed her eyes, as the instantly recognizable classic melody suddenly resounded.

"Ten Sides Ambush," Grandma Shi said, somewhat surprised.

This piece was not the most difficult in the lute repertoire, but to convey its momentum and scene without a solid foundation would be truly embarrassing in front of an audience.

Moreover, this piece was Granny Tang’s forte.

The depth of the veteran artist’s skill was imaginable.

That Senior Sister dared to play this piece—if it was just to show off—truly deserved admiration for her courage.

Not only did Grandma Shi think this, many in the audience were already astonished upon hearing the prelude to the piece, "Is it really that one?"

"This martial theme requires so many techniques, Finger Roll, strumming—it’s tough. I remember crying when I was learning Phoenix Nod. She knows the piano, harmonica, guitar, and all that, with such a wandering heart, can she really learn the lute properly?"

"Compared to other pieces, this one is indeed easier, don’t set the bar too high, but it looks like she has some posture."

"Heh, the technique isn’t difficult, but to recreate the battle between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu isn’t something a beginner can achieve."

"The key to this piece isn’t just speed, but also mastering the rhythm to capture the momentum... Can she do it?"
