Feng Wei said with a touch of annoyance, “What’s it to you?”
Chen Jian had always been Feng Wei’s simp, and now that he could see she was clearly unhappy, he sneaked a quick look around, and when he was sure Feng Wei’s husband was not around, he asked in a hushed voice, “Did you just et soone backstage? Why are you so angry?”
Feng Wei initially resisted Chen Jian suddenly getting so close, but she quickly ca up with an idea. Her eyes flickered as she said, “There’s a girl nad i Shu performing later. Her piano skills are poor, and she secured her spot in the competition using questionable ans. Don’t hold back when you score her.”
The competition used a five-judge scoring system, and the final score was the average of all the judges’ scores, so each judge’s evaluation was equally important.
Chen Jian understood the implication. He casually rested his arm on the back of her chair, appearing affectionate and natural. “Is there sothing that this student did to offend you? Let think. She’s called i Shu? And she’s also surnad i. She must be i Mu’s sister who ca back from the countryside, right?”
“Why are you asking so many questions? I’m just reminding you to be fair and impartial,” Feng Wei replied coldly, glancing at the hand he placed behind her.
Chen Jian withdrew his arm with an awkward smile. “Alright, 1 won’t ask anymore. You can rest assured that 1 will be fair and impartial!”
He intentionally emphasized the last few words, and then he tilted his head and asked, “After the competition ends, shall we have dinner together?”
Feng Wei was about to refuse, but then she thought that she might need this person’s help later. So, she replied ambiguously, “If 1 don’t have any other plans, then 1 can agree.”
“As long as you said that, it’s enough.” Chen Jian sat up straight, feeling satisfied.
On the stage, the host went up and announced the start of the competition, introducing the rules to the audience.
Soon, the first contestant ca on stage to perform.
“Which one is i Shu? Don’t you have the list? Let see it. 1 can’t wait!” The person speaking was a high school student from No.i High School.
They were all obsessed with i Shu, to the point that even those who usually studied diligently had given up on their studies just to watch i Shu’s performance!
The person next to them quickly opened the list and carefully looked through it. “i Shu is the eighth contestant, right in the middle. It shouldn’t be long before it’s her turn!”
“Why is she the eighth? Does that an 1 have to wait for seven more people to watch her perform?” The person slumped in the chair like a deflated balloon, then took out textbooks from their bag and started studying right at the competition venue!
“Wow, you’re cheating! You’re actually studying here. Why didn’t 1 think of that?” They were influenced by this person, and others also started getting anxious.
Those who brought textbooks and test papers started cramming in a frenzy, while those who didn’t have anything to study could only sit there listlessly, praying that the people ahead of i Shu would be fast, so they could leave after watching i Shu’s performance!
On the second floor, in the central private room.
A man in a dark blue suit leaned against the railing, his clear eyes scanning the stage below before disinterestedly withdrawing his gaze.
Next to him, Jiang He explained proactively, “The list of contestants for this competition is arranged in the order of registration by schools. i Miss is from No.i High School and is ranked eighth. We’ll have to wait a while for her to perform.”
“Okay,” Lu Si replied casually, lowering his head to sip his tea.
The private room fell into silence once again.
Just as Jiang He thought he wouldn’t speak again, Lu Si suddenly looked up, and his gaze held a hint of aning as he asked, “Have you investigated the backgrounds of these judges?”
“I’ve investigated all of them,” Jiang He was surprised by Lu Si’s concern for i Shu, but he soon cald down, “One of them is nad Feng Wei. She’s i Mu’s piano teacher and the chairwoman of Lin City Piano Association.”
Lu Si narrowed his eyes and asked, “Is she the one who went backstage just now and ca back after more than ten minutes?”
“Yes,” Jiang He asked curiously, “Is there a problem, Master Si?”
Lu Si tapped the table with his finger slowly, “Just in case, show the backstage surveillance.”
Jiang He was completely stunned this ti.
How could Master Si miss i Miss so much that he wanted to watch the surveillance footage after not seeing her for a while?
“If you can’t do it, I can find soone else,” Lu Si stared at him coldly.
Jiang He quickly snapped back to his senses, “No, I’ll get the surveillance video for you right away.”
The Lu family had privileges wherever they went, and for Jiang He, this wasn’t a difficult task.
Soon, after retrieving the surveillance, Jiang He looked at Lu Si with a complicated expression as the latter watched the screen intently.
Is Master Si a little too infatuated with i Miss?
Just as he was lost in thought, a sharp female voice ca from the surveillance, almost startling him.
He quickly leaned closer to see the monitor and learned that Feng Wei had just caused trouble for i Shu backstage!
