It was unknown when Geng Qiu’s voice had turned cold. Su Li felt that she had become completely different ever since Geng Qiu met the piano teacher she found on the Internet. It was very strange.
“Qiuqiu, are you feeling unwell? I feel that there’s something wrong with you recently!” Su Li looked at Geng Qiu nervously. She was worried that Geng Qiu was in this state because she was not feeling well.
“What can happen to me? I just feel that I shouldn’t be too kind. I’ve been trying to curry favor with the Zhaos all day, but in the end, I was still slapped and they want to cancel the engagement with me. But Wen Xin’s cold demeanor has attracted so many admirers. So, I’ll change my lifestyle and let others admire me.”
After she finished speaking, the corners of her lips curled up into a stiff smile. Su Li did not know how to express her feelings after seeing it. She still felt that the sweet look was more suitable for Geng Qiu.
When they arrived at the competition venue, Geng Qiu saw her piano teacher waiting for her backstage. She immediately walked up to him. “Teacher Wei, can you go backstage? Who exactly are you?”
Wei Shisheng looked at Geng Qiu’s outfit today and nodded in satisfaction. “I told you those little dresses didn’t suit you. Only such high-end dresses can bring out your temperament. There are two more people, then it’s your turn. You must work hard. I look forward to your excellent results!”
“Teacher Wei, don’t worry. I will definitely perform well and blind their dog eyes. They don’t like me. They are blind.”
Geng Qiu was talking about Lapor. Back then, Lapor had given her so much confidence, and now she was being trampled on in the piano industry. If it weren’t for Lapor, she wouldn’t have to hide from the internet all day and watch the comments about her from the outside world.
Wei Shisheng looked on in satisfaction at Geng Qiu’s full resentment. She had been investigating what happened to Wen Xin in Ice City recently and finally found out about Geng Qiu’s problem with Wen Xin. She couldn’t wait to rush over.
She hadn’t expected that the timing would be just right, and that she would naturally become Geng Qiu’s teacher. Hearing Geng Qiu scold Wen Xin, her mood was very good.
Wen Xin had also been invited by Lapor to register today. Although she did not need to participate in the preliminaries, she still had to follow the procedures.
However, she didn’t expect to see Wei Shisheng backstage.
Looks like this person is really restless, actually getting involved with Geng Qiao. She probably didn’t expect to end up with such an unreliable partner.
Wen Xin did not go backstage. After handing her registration form to the staff, she went straight to Lapor’s lounge.
There were still some rules that she needed to ask Lapor. At that moment, Lapor was at the competition venue, waiting for the competition to end.
She gently pushed open the door to Lapor’s lounge, and the assistant warmly welcomed Wen Xin in. She even specially prepared a cup of milk tea for Wen Xin. She felt that young girls would like this.
Wen Xin took the milk tea from the assistant. She looked at her assistant and suddenly thought of Wei Shisheng backstage. “Do you know Wei Shisheng?”
“Wei Shisheng? I don’t know. Is she a contestant? If they are contestants, I have a name list here. Do you want to take a look?”
As she spoke, the assistant turned around and handed the list of today’s competitors to Wen Xin.
Wen Xin sat on the sofa, casually flipping through the list of participants. Wei Shisheng’s name wasn’t on the list of participants. What surprised Wen Xin was that she saw Wei Shisheng’s name on the list of instructors.
So she was here to be a teacher. Interesting.
Wen Xin handed the list to the assistant. She took out her phone from her pocket and sent Mu Chengxi a WeChat message. “Does Wei Shisheng know how to play the piano?”
Mu Chengxi, in the middle of a meeting, suddenly felt his phone vibrate. He picked it up and saw a message from Wen Xin. He clicked on it, and he was stunned when he saw the question about Wei Shisheng. He did not understand why Wen Xin would care about Wei Shisheng.
Mu Chengxi gestured to the hall master reporting to him and turned off the video on the computer. He then dialed Wen Xin’s number, and the call was quickly picked up.
“Didn’t you go to the piano competition? Why did you suddenly ask about Wei Shisheng? She should know how to play the piano. I haven’t paid attention to it before, but the socialites in Beijing are just superficial.”
Mu Chengxi spoke very frankly. He was really not interested in Wei Shisheng’s matters, so how could he know so much?
“It’s nothing. I just saw Wei Shisheng and Geng Qiu together backstage at the piano competition. I was curious about how she became Geng Qiu’s instructor.
This is very surprising.”
Wen Xin spoke indifferently, her fingers tapping on the sofa’s armrest occasionally. Wen Xin did not seem to be in a good mood.
“How long until the competition ends? I’ll pick you up after my meeting!” Mu Chengxi asked gently. He had not seen Wen Xin for a few days and missed her. “Sure, let’s have dinner together tonight. I’ll wait for you at MO Yu Pavilion.” “Okay, let me get Mu Bei to book a table and pick you and Auntie up.”
Hearing that Wen Xin was willing to eat with him, Mu Chengxi’s mood improved a lot. Recently, Wen Xin had been finding excuses not to leave school. Perhaps he had gone too far that night and scared her.
“It’s fine. Aunt has a chauffeur. We can go there directly. The assistant will also eat with us.” Wen Xin glanced at the assistant, smiling like an aunt, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
“Alright, I got it. I’ll wait for your call.”
As soon as Mu Chengxi finished speaking, Wen Xin hung up the phone. Mu Chengxi looked at the phone in his hand and smiled dotingly. This little thing had always been so decisive.
Wen Xin threw her phone on the cabinet at the side and turned to look at her assistant.” Lisa, go and find out who arranged for Wei Shisheng to join us. I remember that the instructor should have signed up a month ago, right? She should be someone who joined at the last minute.”
Looking at the name at the end of the list, it was different from the original name. She must have joined later, but she didn’t know what her goal was.
“Alright, I’ll go now.” Lisa walked out with the list of names. Because she was Lapor’s assistant, the staff members were very respectful to her. She would get a response very quickly if she asked something.
About twenty minutes later, Lisa came back with a song list for the finals in her hand. She handed it to Wen Xin nervously.
“Wen, take a look at this song. Isn’t this the song you tested out for Lapor a year ago? Are you going to use this piece in the competition this time?”
Just as the assistant went to inquire about Wei Shisheng, she immediately noticed the piano score that Geng Qiao handed in. The score was clearly for Wen Xin’s piece, with only a few notes different..
