That “Sorry” was right at the tip of Wen Fangfei’s tongue, but she was unwilling to let it out her lips.
She thought Liu Man hid her skills because she had never considered her as a friend; Besides, Liu Man successfully solved the issue with her own skills and passed the test. Now that Liu Man was even more popular, she was creating an opportunity for Liu Man. Liu Man was actually benefiting.
Wen Fangfei found a lot of reasons to convince and reassure herself. To put it bluntly, she did not have the face to apologize.
She stopped speaking, looking very stubborn. Her face was blushing.
Shen Mozhen frowned slightly.
“Fangfei, hold onto this opportunity.”
Shen Mozhen’s biased attitude made Wen Fangfei feel sad and mistreated. She felt as if Senior Mozhen liked Liu Man more and defended her more. Wen Fangfei only quit because she wanted to help Senior Mozhen!
Wen Fangfei did not say a word, surprisingly turned around, and left through another exit.
Which left Liu Man and Shen Mozhen, standing there, exchanging glances. They were equally beautiful and elegant, and they were just three to four steps away from each other as they stared into each other’s eyes.
“Fangfei was indeed the one to bla on this matter,” Shen Mozhen said to Liu Man apologetically.
Liu Man didn’t care about Wen Fangfei’s attitude. Her anger and disappointnt disappeared at the end of the concert.
She thought about it, and decided to say hello to Shen Mozhen, “I’ve heard about you a long ti ago.”
“I have also heard about you for a long ti,” Shen Mozhen returned this sentence to Liu Man.
There was no need to introduce the nas; they had already rembered each other in their hearts. It is also magical. The two of them got connected by Tang Tu. Through the spread of others and various rumors, they had no strangeness to each other, as if they had been in a friendship for a long ti.
They realized that the atmosphere was awkward, and the two girls smiled uncomfortably at the sa ti.
Shen Mozhen put aside her burden and laughed at herself, “We seem to be rivals in love.”
Liu Man shook her head, “I already have a boyfriend.”
Shen Mozhen was stunned for a mont and then smiled happily, “Tang Tu is so useless; I took the initiative to break up with him, so he could go pursue after you. In the end, he still didn’t catch your heart. He deserves this ending!”
Liu Man also laughed. She felt that Shen Mozhen’s character was not as cold as the legends say.
“I wanted to know you a long ti ago,” Shen Mozhen reached her hand out with a soft and friendly expression, “I admire your Guqin performance; it’s great!”
Shen Mozhen’s praise was sincere, and Liu Man was very glad, “It is my honor to be recognized by the goddess of folk music.”
“What folk music goddess, there are too many people that are better than , I am not a goddess,” Shen Mozhen didn’t like this title, ” just call Mozhen, my friends call that.”
“Senior Mozhen,” Liu Man still brought her honorific statent, “About Tang Tu and I…”
She wanted to apologize, and Shen Mozhen interrupted her, “My thoughts are already on Weibo. Breaking up with my Tang Tu is an inevitable result. It’s just that I was always obsessed and hoped that he would like one day. “
Liu Man was surprised. Shen Mozhen ant that Tang Tu had never liked her?
“He has also suffered now, so I am not at a loss,” Shen Mozhen felt very balanced.
“But about Fangfei’s situation. I have to apologize to you for her. She has a simple temperant, very stubborn, and easy to be used by others. She was very impolite when she quitted on the spot.”
Shen Mozhen used the word “impolite” to reduce Wen Fangfei’s responsibility. She said that Wen Fangfei’s future was worrying. After this, no one would choose to cooperate with her easily. Her future developnt would be greatly affected.
Considering this, Shen Mozhen looked at Liu Man and her injured right hand then ca up with an idea in her mind.
Liu Man understood that Shen Mozhen was apologizing on the surface, but protecting the ‘calf’. Wen Fangfei was Shen Mozhen’s closest junior and sister, and she naturally spoke to protect Wen Fangfei.
“The performance has ended smoothly anyway, and Xiaoru and I have passed.”
Speaking of passing, Shen Mozhen rembered her teacher, Professor Wei Wanru. In the evening, when Liu Man and Li Xiaoru’s performance ended, she was mad and told Shen Mozhen that the school was full of smoke and the atmosphere got worse and worse. Individual teachers abused their power to act arbitrarily.
On Friday afternoon, the chamber music ensemble concert’s total score ca out. Liu Man and Li Xiaoru barely passed as the worst group, and in the first place was a piano and strings sextet that was quite normal and did not appear as prominent at all.
Shen Mozhen, a student of folk music, could also be tasteful. This group one was far worse than Liu Man and Li Xiaoru.
She imdiately thought of her teacher’s words. Unbelievable. Does a simple student concert also have a backstage operation?
“Today is Sunday. What are you doing here?” Shen Mozhen asked Liu Man.
Liu Man said helplessly, “My Guqin has fallen here, and I don’t know where the staff put it at the corner.”
“I just saw a Guqin in the instruntal music room. I will take you to see it,” Shen Mozhen said enthusiastically.
“Thanks.”
The instrunt room was full of large instrunts, such as pianos and drums. In the corner, a Guqin stood alone on the wooden table next to the piano. It was the copycat “Lu Qi” Liu Man bought from Boss Li.
Liu Man thanked Shen Mozhen again, took her guqin, and carried it. The backstage was so ssy that day that the Guqin bag was probably thrown away by the staff.
“You can’t get it like this, it’s not easy,” Shen Mozhen said, “I will lend you my bag.”
Liu Man was embarrassed and said, “No need, I can carry it back like this.”
“You are welco. You can return it to on Monday since I will rehearse here all day today, and I won’t be needing a bag.”
After Shen Mozhen finished speaking, she turned around and went out for a minute or so. When she ca back, she was holding her Guzheng bag in her hand. Liu Man could not refuse her kindness.
“Thank you, thank you,” Liu Man said repeatedly.
Shen Mozhen took the opportunity to throw out the invitation,
“Would you like to participate in my graduation concert?”
???
Liu Man looked confused.
Seeing that she had no obvious intention to refuse, Shen Mozhen continued, “My graduation performance is scheduled to be held in this concert hall on the evening of May 30. The content is mainly my guzheng solo, but in the second half of the performance, three shows were specially set aside for guests that got invited to perform with . Two of the shows have been selected, and there is one remaining.” In fact, for this one, Shen Mozhen originally planned to invite her teacher, Professor Wei Wanru, to perform on the sa stage with her. Wei Wanru also agreed.
But last Thursday, after Wei Wanru watched the ensemble as a special judge, her heart wasn’t holding up well. Wei Wanru and Su Yi were almost the sa generations. They were 78 years old this year. The old lady went to the hospital for a physical examination the next day. The doctor said that her mood fluctuated too much, and the blood circulation in the heart was congested. In addition to insisting on taking dicine and conservative treatnt, she also needed to rest for at least one month. During this period, she could not even attend classes.
