Chapter 46: Please Live in the Mysterious Garden of My Heart 2
Ye Chuxiao looked at Lu Ziyi on the other side of the grand piano. Among so many guests, he was looking only at her.
Ye Chuxiao was too astonished. Such an excellent young man, successful in his studies, holding an important student position, and establishing his own design studio in his third year. His brilliance was just beginning.
But why could he play a piece of music so pure, as if without any impurities?
Music never lies. The performer’s heart is as it is, and so is the music they play.
Could it be that this man, whom others thought would only pursue fame and success, actually harbored a pure and tranquil mysterious garden in his heart?
Under Ye Chuxiao’s surprised gaze, Lu Ziyi played the violin and walked towards her.
Lu Ziyi was not surprised at all that Xiaoxiao would like the 《 Song from the Mysterious Garden 》. She was quiet and her heart was at peace; her expectations were just as simple.
He had used a small trick, borrowing Senior Student Jin Xian’s request for him to perform a program, to test Xiaoxiao’s favorite music.
What a surprise, it was his favorite music too!
But he was afraid Xiaoxiao wouldn’t understand that it was also the emotion he most desired in his heart!
The piano and violin music continued to blend, but the melody gradually became melancholic, and the expressions of the people also revealed sadness.
The mysterious garden remained quiet and beautiful, but on a dark, stormy night, the gravely ill Countess passed away, leaving behind the Count who deeply loved her.
For the Count, this world had lost all meaning. Even this mysterious garden, once filled with love, had become meaningless.
The lonely Count was immersed in grief day after day. That year, he never left that house, that room.
This piece of music was particularly poignant for Ye Chuxiao tonight. Love never had an absolutely perfect form; it always became something that made one sad.
However, when she was sad, there was a man by her side.
Ye Chuxiao looked up at him, and he met her gaze.
In his eyes, she saw a tranquility that was exceptionally powerful, as if it could strip away the superficiality from one’s heart, possessing the strength to bring such peace for a lifetime.
Xiaoxiao, I cannot change this world to eliminate sadness forever, but I will always be by your side when you are sad.
The audience was immersed in the mysterious garden conjured by Lu Ziyi and Ye Chuxiao’s music.
Meanwhile, Ye Chuxiao and Lu Ziyi’s gazes remained locked, cautiously exploring the mysterious garden in each other’s hearts.
Ye Chuxiao’s tightly pursed lips relaxed, even curving upwards slightly.
In the mysterious garden, one night, the Count dreamt of the Countess.
In the morning, the Count thought of the mysterious garden where he and his beloved wife used to wander.
He wondered, perhaps the mysterious garden had become desolate over the past year?
The Count finally walked out of his house and was surprised to see that the vast fields of roses he had planted for the Countess were still blooming vibrantly.
In the garden, the joyful laughter of their children could still be heard.
The warm morning sunlight shone upon the entire mysterious garden…
When the music ended, Lu Ziyi and Ye Chuxiao continued to gaze at each other, with faint smiles on their faces.
So, in this world, there was someone like me, and I was no longer alone!
As the audience awoke from the dream called the mysterious garden, they gave the two musicians enthusiastic applause.
Lu Ziyi took Ye Chuxiao’s soft hand and stood with her at the front of the stage, bowing to thank the guests.
