Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Alright,” the principal finally spoke to stop the students’ chatter.
He looked at i Shu and rembered her confident deanor when she was in his office. There was a hint of a smile in his eyes as he said, “It’s your turn. You’re the first student to receive such praise from Teacher Zhao. I’m also curious to see your performance.”
Beside him, Hu Xin could see the principal’s high regard for Zhao Min, and she was so jealous that she wished she could grind her teeth to pieces. However, she didn’t say anything and just stared at i Shu with disdainful eyes.
i Shu felt Hu Xin’s gaze, but she didn’t understand why Hu Xin had such animosity towards her since she had never t Hu Xin before.
However, these things were not important to her.
i Shu didn’t bother to investigate the reasons behind it and just nodded to the principal and Zhao Min before calmly stepping onto the stage.
As it happened, Zhou Li was coming down from the stage at the sa ti, and the two brushed past each other. i Shu heard Zhou Li’s sneer.
She heard it but pretended not to. Sitting confidently in the chair in front of the piano, she adjusted her posture, took a deep breath, but her hands didn’t descend onto the keys right away.
If her mother knew that she would perform the piano under the spotlight soday, she would definitely be very happy.
Unfortunately, the audience couldn’t read the sorrow in i Shu’s face. They thought she was simply afraid and didn’t dare to start playing. So even ridiculed her, saying, “If you knew you would end up like this, why bother in the first place? It would have been better to admit defeat early and save yourself the embarrassnt!”
“I’m so excited, 1 can’t wait to see i Shu and Teacher Zhao Min get slapped in the face! Goddess Zhou Li is bound to win tonight!”
Cheering voices rose and fell in the audience.
Zhou Li looked arrogantly towards the stage.
Now it was obviously i Shu’s turn to perform, but there was no one cheering for her below. Zhou Li really wanted to know what i Shu was feeling at this mont.
However, before she could revel in her superiority, a deep and magnetic voice interjected, “i Shu, just be yourself. 1 believe in your abilities.”
The whole venue fell silent.
Lu Yan’s words had more influence than the teachers’ comnts. The chaotic scene just a mont ago suddenly beca dead silent.
Zhou Li was so jealous that her eyes turned red, and she almost crushed the sheet music in her hand.
Hu Xin comforted her softly after seeing this, “Don’t worry, i Shu will definitely be no match for you!”
Zhou Li nodded slightly and turned her resentful gaze towards the stage.
i Shu smiled slightly in Lu Yan’s direction, her smile tinged with a deep attachnt to the past.
Behind Lu Yan, Li Zhen also waved excitedly to cheer her on.
i Shu saw it but pretended not to, unwilling to give him any response.
[Please complete the task to win the piano competition and get a chance to draw attributes.]
Good, the system’s task was finally announced.
i Shu no longer wasted ti and placed her ten fingers in position. Then they gently landed on the piano keys.
The piece she chose was lodious and gentle, as if a lover was whispering in one’s ear, sotis sweetly telling tales of love, sotis passionately declaring an eternal vow.
Every movent of her fingers played a beautiful and moving story, leading people into different monts of warmth.
When the piece ended, the lody lingered in the air.
It took several minutes for soone to react to i Shu’s finished performance.
This ti, there was no silence in the venue, but the applause was more powerful than ever, expressing the audience’s astonishnt at i Shu’s piano skills.
So this was the emotion Zhao Min spoke of in the piano piece?
It was so captivating that people couldn’t help but want i Shu to play another piece.
For a long ti, it was the principal who first started clapping, and others followed suit.
Even if they didn’t want to admit it, they had to say that i Shu’s piano skills were indeed far superior to Zhou Li’s, and Zhou Li might never catch up with i Shu’s pace even if she dedicated her entire life to it.
Wen Miao was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes, and her applause was so enthusiastic that her hands turned red and she refused to stop.
The applause lasted for a full ten minutes before gradually subsiding.
Before Zhao Min could co up to give her evaluation, the principal was the first to speak, “Well deserved.”
Indeed, it was well deserved.
After this competition, everyone understood one thing.
That was, no one was more suitable than i Shu to represent No.i High School in the piano competition.
They were even looking forward to i Shu’s performance at the competition venue, believing that it would be even more morable than what they had just witnessed.
So people in the crowd were already searching for ways to beco an audience at that competition.
Soone shouted that there were still tickets available, and all the students took out their phones to buy tickets.
Zhou Li’s face turned iron-gray as she sat in her seat, staring fiercely at the indifferent i Shu on the stage.
How could this be?
How could i Shu play the piano, and play it so well?
She had been in the countryside for so many years, and she shouldn’t have touched a piano in years!
The person sitting next to her, Hu Xin, had a similarly unhappy expression.
Now Hu Xin finally understood why Zhao Min was so sure that i Shu would win.. It turned out that this outstanding talent had already been discovered by Zhao Min!
