For the rest of his life, Zayev would never forget\u2026 Dorenza\u2019s expression that day.<\/span><\/p>

Albert Dorenza, the chief conductor of Wei Ai, was one of the four most successful conductors in the world. As famous as he was for his strength, he was just as famous for his kind and gentle heart. Even when the orchestra made a mistake during a formal performance, he wouldn\u2019t get angry. Instead, he would pause the performance and encourage the orchestra to restart.<\/span><\/p>

Zayev was in his fifties. He had been a member of Wei Ai for 20 years and served as the concertmaster for a decade.<\/span><\/p>

In the orchestra, although the members knew Dorenza held the most power, they also knew that Zayev was the secret leader.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIt\u2019s not enough to use a soft heart to deal with others,\u201d Zayev once evaluated himself, \u201cHow can an orchestra function without someone harsh, to get things done? Since Dorenza doesn\u2019t have the spirit to do it, I must. So, as Wei Ai\u2019s\u2026 What\u2019s the name again? Ah, right! As Wei Ai\u2019s <\/span>Bismarck<\/span><\/a>, I will be the one to manage everyone!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Whether or not the famous figure would vomit in his grave when he heard such praise was unknown.<\/span><\/p>

Zayev never paid any attention to Dorenza\u2019s views. After all, excluding the rehearsals and the performances, the man held relaxed management over the orchestra. He hoped that they could develop freely. Provided the secret was well-kept, Dorenza would never be suspicious.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cDorenza is really a good man.\u201d Zayev said this with a little meaningful smile.<\/span><\/p>

However, the good man had his lips tightly pursed when he called Zayev to his lounge.<\/span><\/p>

Zayev\u2019s heart beat harshly in his chest as he asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s the matter, Dorenza? Are you in a bad mood today? Maybe you should take a rest tomorrow and let me handle the rehearsal. You have a bad expression on your face\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Dorenza raised his head slowly after hearing Zayev\u2019s voice.<\/span><\/p>

His eyes were bitter cold, like a knife cutting straight into Zayev\u2019s heart. His gaze was without a trace of vitality, as if\u2026 he was looking at a dead man!<\/span><\/p>

Taking a step back in horror, Zayev fell to his knees. He began to doubt whether this man was the same Dorenza that he knew!<\/span><\/p>

Before Zayev could think any further, Dorenza raised his hand and lifted a golden pen from his desk.<\/span><\/p>

Zayev\u2019s eyes followed the movement of the pen, watching as Dorenza held it in his hand, before\u2014\u2014<\/span><\/p>

With a sharp flick, the pen shot down and broke against the desk\u2019s surface with a loud thump!!!<\/span><\/p>

That was his birthday gift to Dorenza last year!!!<\/span><\/p>

\u201cZayev, I really don\u2019t want to see you right now.\u201d After a slight pause, Dorenza continued, \u201cNo\u2026 I don\u2019t want to see you ever again!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

The voice was as if it came from the South Pole, an icy wind across a dense, eerie forest. Zayev trembled in fear. After a few moments, he asked, \u201cDorenza, what\u2019s the matter with you?! What did I do? You should\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cZayev, I always thought that people who loved classical music could never be so vile.\u201d Dorenza\u2019s always smiling face was expressionless. \u201cMore than 30 years ago, I made a mistake. Moss drugged someone before a performance and he fell. I was the one who recommended him to the New York Philharmonic, and that regret will stay with me for the rest of my life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

More than 30 years ago, the deputy concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic drugged the concertmaster before a performance and got away with it\u2026 Until he was exposed by an informant, an insider.<\/span><\/p>

The brilliant deputy concertmaster never made it to the stage again, but what no one knew was…<\/span><\/p>

It was Dorenza who recommended him to the New York Philharmonic.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cZayev, because I rarely doubt people, I helped the child when he asked me. I was enthralled by his beautiful violin. I didn\u2019t expect him to have such a terrible mind. But now, I didn\u2019t even see\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYou, Leon Zayev, are far more terrible than Moss ever was!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

From the moment he saw Dorenza\u2019s dark expression, Zayev already knew what was happening, but he still tried to dodge it. \u201cDorenza, I don\u2019t understand what you\u2019re talking about. What have I done\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWhy did you want to kill Lu Zi Wen?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Stunned, Zayev said, \u201cKill Lu Zi Wen? Dorenza, who told you that?! I haven\u2019t done anything like that. How could I? In the two months that we rehearsed with him, me and the orchestra all liked him. You know that, Dorenza! I liked Lu a lot, how could I harm him?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Dorenza stared coldly at Zayev, keeping his silence.<\/span><\/p>

Zayev continued, with agitation, \u201cI liked that kid, Dorenza and you know that! He was a very gifted child, and polite, at that. I think he\u2019s a malleable talent, I never even got the chance to train him, how could I kill such a gifted child\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cHow dare you say that?!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Dorenza slammed his palm against the desk and rose to his feet. Before Zayev could respond, he picked up a thick stack of letters and threw them on the man\u2019s face.<\/span><\/p>

Shocked, Zayev wasn\u2019t able to react for a beat. Once he returned to his senses, he heard Dorenza say, \u201cSee for yourself! Did you really think you\u2019d never get found out?!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cZayev, God is always watching! If you didn\u2019t want anyone to know, then you shouldn\u2019t have done it<\/span> to begin with!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

In the deadly silence of the lounge, Zayev picked up the letters scattered on the floor.<\/span><\/p>

As he read\u2026 His expression grew dark, before finally turning red. He stood up and said, \u201cDorenza! Do you believe me or them?! Do you really think I\u2019m that kind of a person\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cShut up!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Dorenza completely subverted Zayev\u2019s cognition. He was still a gentle person, but the man\u2019s anger made Zayev\u2019s heart tremble as if he was experiencing an earthquake. He felt that\u2026 If he said another word, the man would break him to pieces!<\/span><\/p>

\u201cNow you can get the hell out of here. You\u2019d better not let me find evidence of you murdering Lu Zi Wen. If I do\u2026 Your end won\u2019t be so kind as being kicked out of Wei Ai and the classical music world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cEvra can completely destroy Luo Yu Sen\u2019s future, but you\u2019re different from him. I can\u2019t do the same to you\u2026 But mark my words, Zayev! No matter what orchestra\u00a0 might accept you even after knowing about you drugging another member, then that orchestra\u2014\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWill never be able to step foot in Vienna!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYou, get out of Vienna and never come back!!!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

After a long while, Zayev grabbed the corners of the desk and said, \u201cDorenza, what are you talking about? Kicking me out of Wei Ai? How could you drive me out? We\u2019ve known each other for more than a decade, and I\u2019ve been here for more than two! Dorenza\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI don\u2019t want to see you anymore.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Dorenza\u2019s voice was flat. After he spoke, he no longer paid any attention to Zayev. A few minutes later, security personnel came to collect him from the room.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

In just a few moments, only Dorenza was left in the empty lounge.<\/span><\/p>

The enraged old man slowly collapsed. After a long while, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, a completely different man than he had been only moments earlier.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cLu\u2026 I\u2019m really sorry\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI hope your spirit in heaven will be more at ease\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cBut I have no evidence. I couldn\u2019t find anything\u2026 If I had known how ugly he was, I wouldn\u2019t have\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>

A harsh Dorenza with sharp edges was still the same, gentle and kind Dorenza.<\/span><\/p>

Even if it wasn\u2019t his fault, he blamed himself. He drove himself to the edge to get justice for the poor child.<\/span><\/p>

While there were truly despicable people in the world, some were kind enough to shine light amidst the darkness.<\/span><\/p>

The members of Wei Ai shared the same thought. When they all saw Zayev being driven out from the orchestra by the security personnels and his belongings being thrown out, every member of the staff received a small envelope.<\/span><\/p>

The envelope was very thin and it concealed something which was made of plastic. Judging from the size…<\/span><\/p>

It might be a USB stick.<\/span><\/p>

Evra had just hung up a phone call when he received the envelope. From his phone call, he heard that Dorenza had driven Zayev out of Wei Ai and let out a heavy sigh.<\/span><\/p>

When he received the envelope with a USB stick in it, Evra was surprised for a moment, before he finally…<\/span><\/p>

Plugged the USB stick into the computer.<\/span><\/p>

Once he did, he hesitated.<\/span><\/p>

A pop-out window with only one audio file sprang up.<\/span><\/p>

Dorenza and Evra were dumbfounded before…<\/span><\/p>

Clicking on the file.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
