Chapter 39
After Zhao Min finished speaking, she hung up the phone. i Mu’s attitude was so bad that she didn’t want to work with her, no matter how good her skills were!
i Mu saw the phone hung up and laughed in anger. “Who does Zhao Min think she is? My uncle is even more famous than you and he wouldn’t dare to hang up on like that. Without , I’d like to see how you can make one of the top ranks in the piano competition!”
i Mu didn’t neglect her piano practice. Instead, she spent all her ti preparing for the Golden Reputation competition, which was more authoritative and professional than the national high school piano competition.
i Shu was taking an exam in the classroom. As all the knowledge points were already firmly imprinted in her mind, she could start writing the answer imdiately after glancing at the question. It was a piece of cake for her to finish a test paper during each class.
In the morning, Little Eight repeated over and over again, [Congratulations, the master has completed one test paper and won 20,000 yuan.]
i Shu listened to the broadcast and beca more and more enthusiastic. Realizing that she had earned 100,000 yuan in the morning, she didn’t even want to go for lunch. When the bell rang for the last class in the morning, i Shu took out another test paper.
“i Shu.”
i Shu looked up at the sound and saw Zhao Min standing at the back door of the classroom. She got up and walked over to greet her politely, “Hello, teacher.”
Perhaps it was just an illusion, but Zhao Min felt that i Shu looked much more beautiful than before, even though it had only been a few days. She ca to her senses and smiled apologetically, briefly explaining the national high school piano competition.
After briefly introducing herself, Zhao Min explained the purpose of her visit. “It’s a coincidence that the school originally gave the spot to i Mu in your class, but she couldn’t practice due to her poor health, so I took back the spot. The competition is very tight and there’s only half a month left. I think you play the piano very well. Would you like to represent the school in the competition?”
i Shu imdiately understood why i Mu couldn’t participate. Thinking of how i Mu had won a third prize in this competition and even got extra points for her college entrance exam because of it in the past life, i Shu asked, “Teacher, if I win this competition, can I get extra points for my college entrance exam? How long do I need to practice the piano every day?”
Zhao Min saw that i Shu was interested and replied quickly, “Yes! This is in response to the call of the Ministry of Education to develop students’ comprehensive cultural literacy. Based on your daily practice, you only need to practice for half an hour to one hour.”
i Shu was happy to have extra assurance and readily agreed. As today was Friday, they had to start training from next Monday.
After dinner, Wang Yue kindly reminded i Shu as if she was a loving mother, “Go to bed early tonight, or your skin will look bad tomorrow and it will be hard to apply makeup.”
i Shu obediently replied, “Okay.”
Around noon the next day, Wang Yue took i Mu and i Shu out to have their hair and makeup done.
The banquet started at 7 o’clock. i Shu walked onto the stage holding i Yun’s arm, and then there were so opening remarks that were always repeated.
“i Shu looks really similar to Bai Ling.”
“Alas, five years have passed in a blink of an eye, and this little girl has grown so beautiful.”
“What’s the use of being beautiful? She’s still at the rcy of her stepmother.”
“With a stepmother cos a stepfather, that’s absolutely right. Without the protection of her own mother, the legitimate daughter was sent to the countryside as soon as the mistress took over, and the illegitimate daughter moved in with pride and arrogance.”
“The funniest thing is, Wang Yue wanted to use this banquet to make a big deal out of i Mu and i Shu’s attire, making it seem like her being a good stepmother was contingent on her daughter dressing worse than i Shu. We are all disdainful of playing these tricks. She has no knowledge and still thinks we are all fools. It’s simply like covering her ears while stealing a bell.”
Wang Yue just finished her call in the corner when she heard a few wives from families more influential than the i family laughing at her. But she couldn’t get angry. She could only comfort herself by saying that no matter what others said, at least Bai Ling had lost in this non-battlefield, and she could destroy her children and get everything of hers!!
Li Hua stood next to i Mu, staring at the decorations in the hall without blinking, excitedly saying, “i Mu, your family is really rich. This banquet is too high-end. I’ve only seen it on TV dramas!”
i Mu sneered, “What’s the big deal? On my 18th birthday, my parents will prepare a birthday party for that is much more grand than this!”
Li Hua’s eyes sparkled when she heard this, “Can I co?”
i Mu glanced at Li Hua. If it weren’t for wanting to stir up so trouble today, how could she allow a commoner like Li Hua to stand next to her? “Let’s see if you can satisfy with your performance today.”
