Chapter 237 Face Slapped Again
Su Jin was not afraid or nervous at all despite facing a crowd that looked like they were waiting to watch her fail. She stood with poise onstage, picked up the microphone, smiled politely at Merlin and spoke in English.
“I’m sorry, Miss Merlin, you’re going to be disappointed.”
“Although my studies may not be very good, I’m very talented in languages. In addition to English, I also know German, Korean, Japanese, French, Italian, Russian, and my mother tongue, Chinese!”
“Also, I’ve always been able to understand what everyone is saying, I just didn’t want to talk.”
Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin, his eyes flashed with surprise and pride. This wife of his was simply an all-rounded warrior. She knew everything, including so many languages. His had good taste indeed.
Xi Tian was even more shocked. God, this madam was too amazing. Thinking back to the time when Su Jin asked to be the Chairman’s wife, he looked at Xi Chenxiao with envy. The chairman was really lucky to have married such an outstanding woman. He wondered when God would show him mercy and grant him such an outstanding wife!
When Randall heard Su Jin’s words, he was even more surprised and his palms were sweating. This girl was no ordinary person. She even knew so many languages. How many people in this world could do that?
Max looked at the stage with trepidation. A hint of unhappiness flashed in his eyes. This ignorant girl was so insensible. Tonight’s banquet was hosted by his family, and she dared to slap his daughter’s face in public?
No matter how badly Merlin was behaving, she was still the host. As a guest, shouldn’t this girl humor the host and say that she was not very good? This wouldn’t only give the host face but also prevent her from embarrassing herself.
The people below the stage were even more astonished. This girl was really exceptional. They did not expect her to know so many languages. Miss Merlin would probably be slapped in the face again tonight. Some of them even sighed.
“God, this girl’s English is so good.”
“If it wasn’t for her hair and appearance, I would have thought that this was the royal princess. What’s more amazing is that she knows eight languages!”
“Hey, hey, didn’t you guys notice something?”
“What?”
“When this girl spoke just now, her voice was particularly pleasant. It was soothing to the ears and very mesmerizing.” “Oh my God, now that you mentioned it, Miss Merlin’s face must be painful now, right?”
“Just now, she said that this girl was a good-for-nothing, but this girl immediately explained in English that she knew so many languages. This is just crazy!” “Shut up, all of you. Miss Merlin is already very angry. Look at how she looks like she’s about to eat that girl. And you still dare to make those comments?”
When everyone heard this and saw the way Merlin looked at Su Jin, they shut up. Although they were all from wealthy families, they could not compare to the Max family. They wouldn’t want to offend the Maxes.
Merlin was so angry when she heard those comments that she wished she could meet God right away. She wanted to cut off the tongues of those who spoke ill of her, turning them into mutes. Without hiding the hatred and jealousy in her eyes, Merlin turned her head and said coldly to Su Jin,
“Miss Su Jin, what’s the use even if you know many languages? The competition now is not about languages but singing!”
Merlin looked at Xi Chenxiao as she said this. Even if she did not know many languages, she was not afraid of anyone when it came to singing. After all, she was a professional, and this young girl was at best an outstanding amateur. She added with confidence,
“Don’t forget that the winner can raise any request to the loser. You must fulfill my request if you lose!”
Su Jin saw the jealousy and anger in Merlin’s eyes and smiled. She had never seen anyone so eager to get their face slapped. It was just singing, and there is no certainty in terms of the winner or loser! She nodded plainly and said,
“Of course, it’s not a problem. You also shouldn’t go back on your word and should keep your promise.”
Merlin nodded quickly. What kind of joke was this? She was a celebrity singer in the country and was loved by millions. How could she lose to this girl? Moreover, the song she just performed was the hit that made her famous. She couldn’t lose!
