Chapter 1899
"H-hello, I...I am here to deliver lunch to my brother. Am I...disrupting you guys?" The little girl was so frightened that she did not dare to look up. she had never been in and out of such high-end places for being a consumer, she was feeling incomparably nervous.
However, the pianist smiled gently. "Do you really like that piece just now?"
Eira nodded. "Mm-hmm."
"How do you feel after listening to it?" asked the pianist again.
Eira became a little less afraid of the pianist. The pianist seemed very gentle, so she raised her head and bravely expressed what she felt. "Well, it feels as if a stream had gently flowed by. It's very...very moisturizing."
There were very few adjectives that the child could think of, but her description was spot on. That was because the piece that the pianist had just played was "The Dream of Snow." This piece indeed made others feel such a cheerful and soothing feeling. It truly felt as if a stream had gently flowed past one's side.
The pianist bent over slightly and unintentionally saw the little girl's hand. "My little friend, your fingers are slender and straight. It’s really very rare to see such slender fingers like yours."
Eira immediately smiled when she heard someone praising her fingers. "Many of my classmates were very envious that my hands were very pretty."
"Mm-hmm." The pianist nodded. "Do you know what is suitable for fingers like yours to do?"
Eira shook her head. "I don’t know."
"Playing the piano. Well, also..." the pianist said.
Eira's expression immediately became gloomy. "If it's piano, then my family certainly can't afford for me to learn."
She had always wanted to learn a craft, but the additional lesson fee had always been very expensive, so she could not afford to learn. There was a pause before Eira looked at the pianist with a burning passion in her eyes, "Sir, other than playing the piano, what else is suitable for my hand to do?"
The pianist immediately stopped smiling. "This, I can’t tell you."
"Why?" Eira asked with disappointment.
"Because it's a bad thing," said the pianist.
"Bad thing?" Eira asked in puzzlement, and she became even more curious after that. "Sir, just tell me. I certainly won't do bad things. If you tell me, then I know what it is. I will never do things in the future. Don’t worry?" Eira told the pianist with conviction.
The pianist sighed. "My little friend, do you know that everything in this world has two sides to it. This pair of hands of yours has a beauty and length that is rare to find. If you use your hands well, then you can produce the most beautiful notes in the world.
Besides, you have such a good sense when it comes to music. If you don't play the piano, it's a little...it's a shame. In addition..."
There was a pause before the pianist said gloomily, " Not only can this pair of hands play the piano, it would also be easier for this pair of hands to learn the skill of pickpocketing compared to the average person. II
