The Mightiest Little Peasant c1-799

by Watermelonian, 西瓜星人

  Tang Hao’s playing was indeed flawless.

  But that was too ridiculous!

  He was a prodigy and had won many awards. As for that guy, even if he lied about being a total newbie, he should not have played better than him!

  His hands trembled even more violently. His complexion changed several colors.

  Finally, he became dejected and left the scene.

  He did not want to stay there any longer. The cheers and screams sounded harsh to him as if they were mocking him.

  ‘Prodigy?

  ‘What prodigy? It was just a joke.’

  He felt ashamed when he thought about how arrogant he had been.

  Not far away, Fang Qiming was also dumbfounded.

  At this moment, he only had two thoughts in his mind. The first was ‘F*ck!’, and the second was ow could that happen?’

  ‘He was supposed to make a fool of himself! It was supposed to be my revenge!

  ‘How could that guy be in the limelight again?’

  He scratched his head and pulled his hair. He racked his brain but he could not figure out how things had turned out that way.

  Tang Hao was a successful business owner and a master piano player. Was he even human?

  “Get the hell out here, Tang Bowen!”

  He abruptly turned his head and roared.

  “Hey! What’s up, Council President?” Tang Bowen came out from the side.

  “What’s up? You’re asking me what’s up? Who was the one who told me that the guy is an artistic idiot and has never played the piano before? Look at him now. He’s so proficient. How could he be an artistic idiot?”

  Fang Qiming roared, “I think you’re the idiot!”

  “I…”

  Tang Bowen felt aggrieved.

  ‘I don’t think I was wrong! That cousin has been from a poor family. How would he have learned to play the piano?’

  He could not figure out how his cousin could play the piano so well.

  At that moment, the administrators in the front row finally came to their senses. They stood up and applauded.

  The applause was like thunder, lasting for a long time.

  On the stage, Tang Hao heaved a sigh of relief.

  He nearly forgot about the time when he was practicing at home. Fortunately, he made it in time.

  He bowed again and was about to leave the stage. At this moment, a figure suddenly jumped up from the stage. It was a girl. She held a bouquet of flowers and rushed over excitedly.

  Tang Hao was suddenly stunned.

  In a flash, that girl went closer to him and handed him the bouquet. She seemed a little shy.

  Tang Hao hurriedly thanked her and accepted the bouquet.

  Following that, many other girls rushed up from below the stage and handed over bouquets of flowers. Some of them were bold enough to hug him.

  When Yan’er stepped onto the stage, there was a huge commotion below.

  Yan’er walked over with a bouquet of flowers in her hands. Her beautiful eyes shone brilliantly under the lights.

  “Brother Hao, you played so well!”

  She smiled sweetly and handed over the bouquet in her hands.

  Tang Hao tried his best to take it in his already-full hands.

  She did not turn around and go down. Instead, she stood there and looked at Tang Hao charmingly. She kneaded her delicate hands behind her back.

  She finally seemed to have mustered up her courage. She suddenly leaned over and planted a light kiss on Tang Hao’s cheek.

  There was another uproar below the stage. Screams and wails could be heard everywhere.

  The atmosphere was unprecedentedly lively.

  The kiss lasted for a few seconds. After that, Yan’er took a step back and ran down the stage as if she was escaping from something.

  Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, then started chuckling.

  He quickly left the stage with the bouquets in his hands. The workers went up the stage and brought the piano away.

  After returning home in the truck and setting up the piano, Tang Hao received a call from Jiang Wanying.

  “Ha! You lied when you said you didn’t know how to play the piano! That was such an amazing performance!” Jiang Wanying said.

  Tang Hao scratched his head and felt a little awkward.

  She would not believe him if he said that he had only learned how to play a month ago. He could only laugh drily.

  “I was so worried. I didn’t expect you to be so… amazing. Those girls are going crazy!” Jiang Wanying sounded a little jealous.

  After pausing for a moment, she asked, “Are you home?”

  “Mm!”

  “I’ll continue watching the performances then. See you tomorrow!” Jiang Wanying ended the call after that.

  Tang Hao put his phone down and cleaned up his apartment. He sorted and tidied the scattered books and CDs.

  After that, he did not have to practice every day, only occasionally.

  After giving Qin Xiangyi a call, he sat down in the living room and began to study talisman-crafting and pill-making.

  He went to class the next morning.

  He caused a stir when he arrived at the main entrance.

  The girls were excited, but the boys were resentful. Contrary to their expectations, that guy did not make a fool out of themselves. Instead, he made waves once again with his stunning performance.

  Tang Hao was the newly-crowned Prince of Piano.

  As for Li Wenzhe, he was forgotten by others.

  The scene in the classroom was even more sensational.

  “You’re amazing, Tang Hao! You lied and said you didn’t know how to play the piano!”

  “How many years have you studied the piano, Tang Hao?”

  The girls in the class surrounded him and chattered. Their faces were full of excitement and admiration.

  Tang Hao laughed and made up an excuse, “Well… many years, I think!”

  It was not easy for him to deal with those passionate girls. Eventually, he sat down and prepared for classes to start.

  “Here, Brother Hao! These are all for you!”

  Cao Fei and the others went out during class and brought back a bunch of love letters.

  They dumped them on the table, which formed a small hill.

  Tang Hao opened his mouth, but he was speechless.

  Cao Fei and the others were impassive. They sighed forlornly after they returned to their seats.

  “So many girls out there, but why isn’t anyone interested in me?”

  “I think it’s because we’re too close to Brother Hao. His brilliance outshines all of us!”

  “That makes sense!”

  The people were discussing in secret. From time to time, they would turn around to steal glances at Tang Hao.

  Tang Hao rolled his eyes at them.

  He picked up a few love letters and read them, feeling a headache creeping in.

  ‘Should I throw them away?

  ‘That’s not very appropriate. Never mind, I’ll just pack them up like last time!’

  With that thought in mind, Tang Hao opened his backpack and stuffed the love letters inside.

  As he did so, the sound of high heels came from the door. A beautiful figure walked in. It was Jiang Wanying.

  She wore a pink one-piece dress, which accentuated the curves of her body.

  Her makeup was exquisite, and her hair was permed into a slightly wavy shape. She looked extremely fashionable and beautiful.

  “Wow!”

  The entire classroom was filled with exclamations.

  Teacher Jiang’s style of dress had usually been simple and clean, but her sudden change in fashion sense had caused everyone’s eyes to sparkle.

  Even Tang Hao was stunned.

  Teacher Jiang looked completely different.

  “Wow! Teacher, you look so beautiful today!”

  “I didn’t know you’re so good at make-up, Teacher!”
The girls shouted excitedly.

  “Teacher, are you in love?” Liu Feifei teased her.

  Jiang Wanying was surprised. Her pretty face immediately blushed. Then, she reprimanded, “What nonsense are you talking about! Enough of the gossip!”

  Meanwhile, Tang Hao, sitting at the back of the class, almost coughed.

  His gaze swept towards the podium, while Jiang Wanying’s gaze happened to look at him at the same time. When their eyes met, they were both stunned for a moment before quickly looking away.

  “Alright, enough talk. Let’s start the class!” Jiang Wanying said sternly and put on a serious face.

  During the class, when she walked past Tang Hao, she even praised him deliberately.

  “You did well last night, Tang Hao! You brought honor to our faculty and our class!”

  It was already noon after class.

  The students rushed out of the classrooms and into the cafeteria.

  Just as Tang Hao was about to leave, Jiang Laoshi shot him a glance. It was obvious that she wanted him to stay.

  “Follow me to the office!”

  She packed her things, walked out of the classroom on her high heels, and into her office.

  After putting down her teaching materials, she walked over and closed the door.

  She turned around and stared at Tang Hao with a curious gaze.

  “What?” Tang Hao asked.

  “That’s a lot of love letters! You’re becoming more and more popular!”Jiang Wanying said with a smile.

  “Ahem!”

  Tang Hao immediately touched his nose, feeling a little awkward.

  She smiled mischievously, walked over, and hugged Tang Hao.

  “I don’t care anyway… Don’t move! Let me hug you properly!”

  As she remained in that position, she rested her face on his broad shoulders. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she seemed relaxed.

  For a long time, neither of them moved.

  The office was silent.

  Footsteps could be heard walking past the door and across the corridor from time to time.

  Even though Tang Hao had experienced it a few times, he was nonetheless a little nervous.

  She felt the same. Her heart was beating rapidly.

  “Do I… look good today?” She abruptly said softly.

  “Yes!”

  “Then… should I always dress like this?”

  “Sure!”

  After cuddling for a long time, her stomach suddenly growled.

  In an instant, her pretty face blushed.

  “It’s time to eat!” Tang Hao said.

  “No, you have to let me kiss you! Every time I see you, I want to kiss you!” She raised her head and looked at Tang Hao obsessively.

  Then, she slowly closed her eyes and brought her lips to his.

  This kiss was especially long.

  She took a step back when she was almost out of breath. She was a little embarrassed, but that gave her a special charm.

  “Okay! Let’s go!”

  She adjusted her dress, picked up her bag, and opened the door.

  She waited until there was no one in the corridor before she walked out.

  The next three days passed in the blink of an eye. The hype from the welcoming party had gradually died down.

  In those three days, Tang Hao went to the film set after class. It was quite relaxing.

  The movie was almost done. It would be wrapped up in half a month. At the same time, the post-production special effects were in progress.

  Although the action scenes required no special effects, some scenes required them. However, they were all relatively simple.

  Meanwhile, Tang Hao had been in contact with Liu Bingyao. She said that the music video had been filmed and the album would be released soon.

  One afternoon, after class, Tang Hao walked out with Cao Fei and the others.

  “It’s still early, Brother Hao. Are we going anywhere?” Cao Fei said.

  “What’s interesting?” Tang Hao said.

  “Let’s play basketball!”Zhuo Hang said, “I’ll bring you to meet the varsity team!”

  “I’m not interested!” Tang Hao said.

  He would completely crush the varsity team if he played basketball with them. There was no challenge at all!

  “Let’s play snooker, Brother Hao! Or maybe go to the arcade? Oh right, Brother Hao, do you play any games?” Cao Fei said.

  “I’m not interested either!” Tang Hao shook his head.

  “Karaoke!” Cao Fei said again.

  “That’s not bad!” Tang Hao said.

  “Alright, karaoke it is!” Cao Fei said excitedly.

  At this moment, Tang Hao’s phone rang.

  Tang Hao picked it up, took a look, and was surprised. It was from Zhao Qingxue.

  “Hello, Tang Hao! Where are you?”

  Zhao Qingxue’s anxious voice came through the phone.

  “What’s wrong?” Tang Hao’s expression became serious when he heard that.

  “There’s something urgent that requires your help! Where are you now?” Zhao Qingxue said anxiously.

  “At university!”

  “Alright, I’ll come over right now. Wait for me at the door!”

  Zhao Qingxue ended the call after saying that.

  Tang Hao put his phone away and frowned.

  “What’s wrong, Brother Hao?” Cao Fei and the others asked.

  “There’s something urgent. I can’t join you all!” Tang Hao said apologetically.

  Cao Fei and the others seemed disappointed.

  “Take this!” Tang Hao took out his wallet, from which he retrieved ten one-hundred-yuan bills, and handed them over. “You guys go enjoy yourselves!”

  “Thank you, Brother Hao!” Cao Fei and the others immediately beamed with joy.

  The people walked out of the university front gate.

  Soon, they heard the sound of a police siren coming from not far away. A police car whistled over like the wind and stopped at the gate, in front of Tang Hao and his friends.

  As the car door opened, a graceful figure stepped out. She wore a police uniform, which made her look valiant and heroic.

  She had an oval face, her eyebrows were like brush strokes, and her skin was as fair as snow. Her beauty was breath-taking, and she was none other than Zhao Qingxue.

  There was a moment of silence at the university front gate.

  Everyone was dumbfounded. Their eyes were focused on Zhao Qingxue.

  “Bro… Brother Hao, look, there’s a beautiful police officer!”

  Cao Fei patted Tang Hao’s shoulder as he tried to stop himself from drooling as he looked at Zhao Qingxue.

  “Damn! What a seductive uniform!” He muttered and gulped hard.

  Zhao Qingxue glared at him coldly, which made Cao Fei instantly clam up. He coughed softly and tried to look innocent.

  Her gaze swept past the crowd and eventually landed on Tang Hao.

  Suddenly, her eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.

  She walked over with a straight face and said, “Tang Hao, right? Follow me to the station!”

  Cao Fei and the others were immediately shocked.

  ‘Why does she look like she was going to arrest Brother Hao?’

  “Brother Hao, what did you do this time?” Cao Fei and the others asked curiously.

  “I’m suspecting him of stealing!” Zhao Qingxue said coldly and shouted at Tang Hao, “Get in the car quickly! Do I need to use the handcuffs?”

  As she said that, she retrieved a pair of handcuffs from her waist.

  “Damn, Brother Hao, you’re already so rich, but you still want to steal!” Cao Fei and the others were stunned.

  Tang Hao looked at her, feeling a little helpless.

  She raised her eyebrows, feeling a little proud. She even winked at Tang Hao, hinting to him to cooperate.<

  Tang Hao had no choice but to obediently walk away and sit in the car.

  “You can go without worry, Brother Hao! We’ll take care of Beauty Queen Shi for you!” Cao Fei and the rest stood in a row and waved at Tang Hao, their faces full of affection.

  “Dammit, these animals!” Tang Hao cursed under his breath.

  Zhao Qingxue got into the car, started the engine, stepped on the accelerator, and drove away.

  After driving for a while, she could not help but laugh and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so cooperative!”

  Tang Hao smiled helplessly and said, “Weren’t you in a hurry just now? Why did you do all this? Also, next time you want to frame me for something, at least make up something more believable! Who would believe that I stole something?”

  Zhao Qingxue lifted her chin and grunted lightly, “You did steal something! That’s right!”

  “What did I steal?”

  Zhao Qingxue pursed her lips and smiled. She raised her hand and pointed at her chest, saying, “My heart!”

  Tang Hao was at a loss for a reply.

  “So? You have nothing to say, right?” Zhao Qingxue said smugly.

  Tang Hao coughed lightly and said sternly, “Alright, let’s talk about serious business! What’s the emergency?”

  Zhao Qingxue’s expression also became serious. “A serious situation happened earlier. At the north of the city, a person wielded a knife and barged into a kindergarten. He injured several teachers and held several children hostage. That happened not very long ago.”

  In an instant, Tang Hao’s expression changed.

  “Kindergarten?”

  “That’s right! The perpetrator is a man in his fifties. His identity is still being investigated. The incident happened not long ago.”

  Tang Hao’s expression darkened.

  He read similar news on the Internet, but he had never thought that it would happen so close to him.

  How depraved a man had to be to harm innocent children?

  “Such incidents happen all over Huaxia, but it’s the first time it happens in Provincial City,” Zhao Qingxue said.

  “At the moment, we are still caught in a standoff with him. If we force our way in, there might be casualties. We can’t deploy the snipers because we don’t have a good position. That’s why I thought of looking for you!”

  Tang Hao frowned, and his gaze turned cold.
