Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The pieces perford by the first few contestants were all standard and unremarkable.
The scores given by the judges were also reasonable.
Currently, the highest score was from the fourth contestant, a girl, with an average of ninety-four points.
Compared to past competitions, this couldn’t be considered a very high score.
It was clear that the real masters had yet to perform.
The scoring ended.
The host went on stage to announce the next contestant, “Next up is i Shu, a student from Class 6 of Grade 3 at No. 1 High School of Lin City. She is a new face in piano competitions. Let’s welco her with applause.”
As the host’s voice fell, thunderous applause erupted, and so students even excitedly stood up and waved towards the stage.
i Shu walked to the stage, her gaze naturally falling on the noisiest area of the audience, where she saw a few faces that seed familiar. She smiled gently in their direction.
Seeing her looking over, those people beca even more excited, and soone couldn’t control themselves and let out a scream.
This action instantly caused the surrounding audience to be annoyed.
A piano competition was not a usual performance, and there was no need for such enthusiastic cheering.
Instead of showing their enthusiasm, it made them seem rude, and as a result, their fondness for i Shu diminished.
Initially, they had high hopes for i Shu as a new contestant, but they didn’t expect her to be soone who sought popularity by indulging her fans.
In a piano competition, the score wasn’t determined by popularity. The most crucial factor was the contestant’s skill.
People like i Shu were often nothing more than empty vessels, only looking attractive on the surface, and their piano skills might not be as deep as they appeared.
Gradually, whispers started spreading throughout the audience, as they pointed and comnted on i Shu who hadn’t started playing yet.
“They have no manners. Do they think this is their school’s art show?”
“All, I can’t believe that Lin City No. 1 High School allowed such a student to represent them in the competition. I’m so disappointed. I thought I’d get to hear i Mu’s performance today!”
“Huh? Don’t you think her na sounds similar to i Mu’s? Are they related?”
“I don’t know. I don’t know her. 1 only know that i Mu is quite talented. It’s a sha she didn’t participate in the competition before graduation. Winning this would have been a big prize for the student!”
“I heard that i Shu is i Mu’s half-sister from the sa father but a different mother. She just returned to Lin City recently, and I also heard that i Mu couldn’t participate in the competition because of i Shu. I have an aunt who works at the hospital, and she said i Mu is still hospitalized!”
“What? Is this i Shu so ruthless that she even harms her own sister?”
For a mont, many people who knew about this incident felt deep disgust towards i Shu.
The piano was a very elegant art form, but with soone like i Shu performing, it seed to desecrate this sacred realm of art.
So even covered their ears in rejection. “I don’t want to listen. She must play terribly! Let the judges give her negative points!”
However, even though so of the audience didn’t want to listen to i Shu’s performance, since she was already on stage, she would inevitably sit at the piano and perform the piece that had been imbued with all her emotions.
As soon as she started, the derisive and disgusted whispers echoed below.
Feng Wei crossed her arms, looking disdainfully at the seemingly pretentious i Shu on the stage, eagerly awaiting her embarrassing performance.
However, as the flawless lody poured forth from i Shu’s fingertips, the initial resistance and reluctance in the audience were inexplicably smoothed away.
Those who had looked down on i Shu were gradually attracted by the emotions conveyed in her piece. They forgot they were watching a piano competition that they didn’t have high expectations for, and instead, they felt like they were in an elegant hall of art.
At this mont, countless people’s deepest dreams were awakened by the music and surfaced before their eyes.
Chen Jian seed to see Feng Wei, wearing a wedding dress and holding a bouquet of flowers, slowly walking towards him.
On the other hand, Feng Wei saw herself standing on the highest award podium, becoming a world-famous piano perforr.
The grand and magnificent lody held a magical power that swept everyone away. Every stroke of the piano keys seed to pluck the most fragile strings in people’s hearts, causing their emotions to rise and fall with the music. It felt like being on a fishing boat in the vast ocean, swaying with the waves. Despite the uneasy journey, the sailors on the boat, carrying their dreams, still enjoyed the turbulence at sea.
When the piece ended, the beautiful scene that had appeared before everyone’s eyes seed to be shattered in an instant.
Deep regret appeared on everyone’s faces.
At that mont, they all wished that i Shu would continue playing without breaking the beautiful dreams woven by the lody.
However, i Shu, the indifferent dream weaver, wouldn’t show any rcy just because they felt regret.
She stood up silently and bowed politely to the audience.
The entire hall fell into silence for a full ten seconds before erupting into applause that echoed through the venue.
In this mont, those who had belittled i Shu finally understood the others’ fanatic infatuation with her..
