Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right?

Yan Ning couldn't help but be curious: "You can even play the piano?"

Zhang Jingdong met her gaze: "Mr. Yan, you must believe that a man daring enough to pursue you, who is so outstanding yourself, can naturally bring you many surprises. Otherwise, how could you possibly take a fancy to him?"

Yan Ning was once again struck by his confidence, blinking her beautiful eyes: "But I just said you must play better than Sister Mei, and Sister Mei's piano skills come from decades of practice, definitely not something ordinary people can match."

As Zhang Jingdong sat down, he casually said: "Since ancient times, there's no first in literature nor second in martial arts; piano skills are not about being superior or inferior, but each has its own brilliance."

"This brilliance can only be fully appreciated by a true connoisseur, but I believe Mr. Yan will definitely be my connoisseur."

Caught off guard, Yan Ning was instantly charmed by his words, a blush appearing on her face.

She hesitated for a moment, then said somewhat flusteredly: "Aren't you hungry? Try Sister Mei's cooking."

With a joyful heart, Zhang Jingdong immediately picked up his chopsticks.

Actually, Zhang Jingdong was a bit curious earlier because Yuan Mei didn't let them order food.

And now, looking at the dishes on the table, he instantly understood.

Here, there was Cantonese roast goose, sweet and sour pork, Crab Meat Meatballs from Huaiyang cuisine, saltwater river shrimp, sweet and sour carp from Shandong cuisine, braised bamboo shoots from Hui Cuisine, Ba Gong Mountain tofu, and Crystal Pork from Suzhou cuisine.

This lady single-handedly tackled five major cuisines.

And the reason they didn't need to order was that she had absolute confidence in the taste of these dishes, sure that you would definitely like them.

With her confidence and transcendence, Zhang Jingdong, with a critical mind, picked up a piece of roast goose and put it in his mouth, carefully chewing and savoring.

Then, he was immediately convinced!

Crisp skin and juicy flavor, the meat exuding a hint of sweetness while also possessing an indescribable saltiness, and the most amazing part was, the more you chew, the tastier it feels.

With just this one bite, Zhang Jingdong thought of what Chen Xiaoqing once said, "The joy that food brings is no less than the joy of that thing."

Moreover, with this appetizer, Zhang Jingdong suddenly got carried away and began to boast.

Yan Ning and He Jieyu, seeing how much he enjoyed the food, not only didn't find him rude but also found their appetites improved significantly, eating much more than usual.

At that moment, Yuan Mei also prepared her emotions and played "Plum Blossom Serenade."

As her music sounded, the enthusiastically eating Zhang Jingdong immediately slowed down, and Yan Ning and He Jieyu almost stopped their movements.

Just a minute later, Zhang Jingdong understood what Yan Ning meant by Yuan Mei having decades of skill.

It was no exaggeration; her level of piano playing was almost ten times her cooking.

Because Zhang Jingdong had previously received true teachings from Zhou Zilei, he now had a profound understanding of the art of Chinese music.

Thus, unlike Yan Ning and He Jieyu who simply found it pleasing to the ear, he could appreciate to a great extent just how deep her skill was.

If you were to describe it using the three realms of life, her current understanding of piano playing was at the "beginner phase of seeing mountains as mountains, and waters as waters."

To put it more plainly, she had mastered the technique of playing the piano and started to inject her own emotions and life insights into it, meaning she began to develop her own style.

Eating such delicious food and listening to such beautiful ancient melodies, Zhang Jingdong suddenly realized this was practically the most wonderful meal he had ever had in his two lifetimes.

And both this delicious food and the melodies were contributed by Yuan Mei, he suddenly realized that Yuan Mei was truly a top-level beauty with rare talent in both arts.

Mainly because when he arrived, his eyes were only on Yan Ning, as his main target now was her, so even though Yuan Mei was also very beautiful and had a unique temperament, he didn't consider her as a target of pursuit.

But now, due to her delicious food and piano skills, of course, what's crucial was her beauty and unique temperament, he once again thought, "If I don't win this woman over, I'll regret it for the rest of my life."

And thinking of this, perhaps because he felt guilty, he subconsciously looked towards Yan Ning.

Only to discover that Yan Ning was also staring intently at him!

Zhang Jingdong initially subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he suddenly smiled, because he sensed a hint of jealousy in Yan Ning's eyes!

Thus, he immediately regained his composure, and then gazed deeply and attentively back at Yan Ning.

After a while, Yan Ning was the first to be unable to withstand it.

She used eating as an excuse to escape the gaze-off with Zhang Jingdong.

While Zhang Jingdong was feeling triumphant, he also thought of a way to completely win over Yan Ning spiritually.

In the next half hour, Yuan Mei played three more pieces, and it was miraculous that she didn't degrade in performance due to loss of physical strength and focus, but actually played even better!

And when she finished another piece, as Yan Ning applauded vigorously, she said somewhat schadenfreude to Zhang Jingdong: "Alright, Boss Zhang, you've had your fill now, it's time for you to show us something, right?"

Seeing her face rarely displaying a bit of excitement and mischievousness, Zhang Jingdong readily said: "Alright, since you're so looking forward to my performance, I'll give you a real surprise!"

Saying this while standing up, an idea flashed in his mind: "I'll do a draw!"

"Host has accumulated 150 goodwill points from the target, meeting the draw criteria, you can draw now!"
