There was nothing he couldn’t do!

What an arrogant brat!

Marissa smiled at Henry. “I’ve long heard that Henry is an all-around genius, the rare kind who only appears once in a hundred years. No matter the subject or skill, he can learn it in an instant. I also heard that he is well-versed in all kinds of martial arts.”
Henry pretended to be humble and said, “Aunty, you’re flattering me. I can’t say that I know everything, but I do know how to play the piano, guitar, drum, violin and cello. I also know football, table tennis, swimming, golf, wrestling and boxing.”
Everyone gasped. Henry was only in his early twenties. Was he really as good as he claimed?

“all-round genius?”

Jordan was also curious about this person. To be honest, the term “all-around genius” was also frequently used to describe Jordan. He had undergone all kinds of training from a young age. Basically, he knew everything Henry had listed earlier. Could it be that Henry had undergone the same kind of
demonic training?

Henry glanced at the piano in the courtyard and looked at Lauren.
“Ms, Lauren, let me play something on the piano for you? You can choose any piece you want. I can play it!”

Lauren was also shocked by this seemingly omnipotent person. She replied politely, “Today is my grandfather’s birthday. You should let him choose.”

“Idon’t know much about music. Henry, just play any song,” said Martin.

Henry nodded and said, “Alright, then I’l just play “The Well-Tempered Clavier” by Bach!”

Heading over to the piano, Henry sat on the black stool. He placed his hands on the keys and his fingers started dancing.

It was the Prelude and Fugue in C minor. It was a piece for a Grade 10 piano exam, and it was quite challenging.

Many people were praising him.

“This kid’s piano skills are not bad. He is at the Grade 10 level!”

“He is playing pretty fast, but it just sounds like a buzzing noise. Like a bunch of bees in the yard. Not very soothing to the ears.”

“That’s right. I think he just knows how to play the piano very fast. He has zero emotion! He can’t move me!”

“That’s enough. He’s an all-rounder and knows everything. The piano is not his main skill. He’s already very outstanding to be able to reach Grade 10!”

The song ended a few minutes later. Everyone applauded him.

However, as the saying went, there was a difference between being good and being great. He had chosen a classical tune by Bach and he couldn’t move all the guests with such a classical piece.

Although these guests were from the upper class, not everyone knew how to appreciate the arts. Some upper-class folks knew how to listen to classical music, admire artwork and savor red wine. However, not everyone from the upper class had reached those levels of sophistication. Therefore, some only
felt that the piano piece was boring.

“These fellows are so cold to my piano music. A bunch of tasteless fools! I might as well have played some trashy pop song!”

After performing the piano piece, Henry turned to Martin. “Mr. Howard Sr., I like basketball too. Shall I perform a slam dunk for you?”

“Slam dunk? Great! Someone, prepare a basketball hoop for Mr. Zeller,” Martin instructed.

Everyone was also curious. Henry was only about 1.8 meters in height and not considered very tall. Few people could play basketball well at that height. Many of them couldn’t even touch the hoop.

“This fellow has chosen skills that I’m good at.”

Jordan found it interesting. He did not expect himself to be so similar to Henry Zeller.

Soon enough, the staff had erected a standard basketball frame for Henry in the courtyard.

Holding a Spalding basketball, Henry approached Lauren with a smile.

“Ms. Lauren, I need a partner for this slam dunk performance. Can you help me?”

Lauren was taken aback. “Help you? Do you need me to pass you the ball?”

Henry replied, “More or less, but you don’t have to do much. You just have to raise the basketball high above your head. I’ll sprint over and take it from your hands for the slam dunk!”

It was not a rude or outrageous request. Besides, this was a performance for her grandfather. As his granddaughter, it was only right for her to participate.

“alright,” Lauren agreed.

“No!”

Just as Lauren was about to get up, Jordan immediately objected.

Basketball was very sacred to someone like Jordan who loved the sport!

‘When he was younger, he often fantasized that one day, he would be able to practice basketball with the woman he loved, and perform slam dunks together!

Just like Sakuragi Hanamichi and Haruko Akagi, and Chi Muging in the Slam Dunk comics… Jordan and Lauren had never played basketball together before. They had never performed a slam dunk together.
How could this sacred first time be snatched away by Henry! In Jordan’s opinion, Lauren’s first time on the basketball court was as important as her virginity! Therefore, Jordan objected to Lauren and Henry performing a slam dunk together.
Henry looked at Jordan furiously.

Clarice piped up. “Jordan, you’re too petty. They are just acting as partners for the slam dunk performance. We’re not asking your wife to dance with him hand in hand. Why are you objecting? Aren’t you being too petty?”
“Henry, let me help you.”

With that, Clarice stood up to help Henry out of his predicament.

“Thank you, Ms. Clarice.”

Henry thanked her. He boldly rolled his eyes at Jordan because he thought Jordan could not see.

With that, Clarice raised the basketball high in the air. Henry leaped up and grabbed the basketball. He then did a windmill action and slammed the ball into the basket!

Bang!

“Oh my god! A slam dunk! He can actually do such a thing!”

“His physique is amazing! Women should marry such a healthy man!”

“There are only a handful of people who can do a slam dunk at that height. Henry’s physical condition is superb!”

Even Lauren couldn’t help covering her mouth in surprise. “Impressive!”

“Impressive my ass! What’s so great about that? I can do it too!”

Jordan was extremely jealous when he heard his wife praising another man.

However, Henry was a tenth-grade pianist and could perform a slam dunk. In addition, he had accurately hit Matthew’s hand with a spoon.

This fellow was indeed a formidable all-around genius.

At the very least, Jordan had never met such an outstanding opponent among his peers.

‘When Jordan saw Lauren’s interested expression, jealousy surged in his heart. “It’s a pity that Lauren wasn’t there during the Olympics in Tokyo and didn’t see my Carolina-style slam dunk. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be amazed by a mere windmill slam dunk!”
Jordan clenched his fists. Henry had played the piano and performed the slam dunk for Lauren’s benefit!

“You dare to snatch my woman? You’re courting death!”
