Thickened fragrance is better than the wine: The young peach waits, as promised…’

The light muslin curtain separated the audience from the singing and dancing.

The red light hung high and the fragrance wreathed around it.

Qi Xia lay on the grand couch on one side, the white jade bone fan swinging in his hand. He squinted his eyes and looked at the girl in red on the stage as she sang faintly. The dancer beside her twisted her lithe and graceful figure, her veil swaying with her every move.

!!

The Qin Music Hall was the most famous music troupe in the imperial city of the Longxuan Empire, and it belonged to the Qilin Family. As the most promising successor of the Qilin Family, Qi Xia had not been here much, but for some reason, he suddenly came here today and quietly listened to a song.

“Little Third.” The manager of Qin Music Hall respectfully waited on one side.

“That singer sings well. Qi Le, you have a good eye for talent.” Qi Xia’s eyes rested on the red-clad singer. She sat alone at the edge of the stage, her fingertips stroking the strings of her instrument lightly. She was wearing a red veil to cover her face, but you could vaguely see that her eyes were lowered, as if all the troubles in the music hall had nothing to do with her. She just sang her song alone.

“Many thanks for your praise, ” Qi Le said with a smile.

“She seems to be still young, why hide her appearance?” Qi Xia seldom took an interest in the women of the music troupe. Unlike other music halls, Qilin’s music hall was just a place to listen to songs and watch dances. Guests were not allowed to have direct contact with the singers and dancers here. If anyone had the courage to do anything vile, the Qilin Family members would not be polite to them.

“This… I also don’t know. This girl came with her veil on. I actually asked her several times about it, but she didn’t want to say much. I heard her voice was excellent, so I just let it go. If Little Third wants to know, why don’t I ask her again?” Qi Le said with a smile.

Qi Xia motioned with his hand. He only asked casually; he really didn’t mean anything by it.

But indeed, that singer had a beautiful voice.

In the following few days, Qi Xia often came to the music hall. Whenever he came, he would always hear the singing of that girl, and every time, she was sitting in the most inconspicuous part of the music hall with a zither in front of her, singing softly with her eyes lowered. It was as though there were no one else in the music hall but her; she always seemed happy on her own.

Qi Xia had never seen the singer’s face, nor did he really look at her. He just listened to her voice and to her songs.

Oddly enough, Qi Xia always felt that his mental state was bad at present. These past few days, his consciousness was somewhat vague. He could not remember what he was usually busy with, or why he was going to the music hall to sit down everyday. The only thing he remembered was the female singer’s voice.

It seemed that only her singing could stir his consciousness.

Qi Xia always felt that he had forgotten or neglected something.

On this dav. Oi Xia came to the music hall again- Night had alreadv fallen and he came later than usual. At this time, there was no singing girl in the music hall.

Perhaps bored, Qi Xia walked to the backyard of the music hall.

When he reached the garden, he heard the sound of the strings that stirred up his heart and went looking for her. In the moonlight, he saw the female singer sitting in the flowers and playing the zither with her head bowed.

The safflower imprinted in her red dress was especially striking in the moonlight.

Qi Xia slowly walked over.

The sound of footsteps attracted the attention of the girl, and she faintly raised her head to look toward the source of the sound.

Under the moonlight, Qi Xia looked at her.

What he saw was a pair of clear and calm eyes..
