“Alright,” the principal finally spoke to stop the students’ chatter.

He looked at Mei Shu and remembered her confident demeanor when she was in his office. There was a hint of a smile in his eyes as he said, “It’s your turn. You’re the first student to receive such praise from Teacher Zhao. I’m also curious to see your performance.”

Beside him, Hu Xin could see the principal’s high regard for Zhao Min, and she was so jealous that she wished she could grind her teeth to pieces. However, she didn’t say anything and just stared at Mei Shu with disdainful eyes.

Mei Shu felt Hu Xin’s gaze, but she didn’t understand why Hu Xin had such animosity towards her since she had never met Hu Xin before.

However, these things were not important to her.

Mei Shu didn’t bother to investigate the reasons behind it and just nodded to the principal and Zhao Min before calmly stepping onto the stage.

As it happened, Zhou Li was coming down from the stage at the same time, and the two brushed past each other. Mei Shu heard Zhou Li’s sneer.

She heard it but pretended not to. Sitting confidently in the chair in front of the piano, she adjusted her posture, took a deep breath, but her hands didn’t descend onto the keys right away.

If her mother knew that she would perform the piano under the spotlight someday, she would definitely be very happy.

Unfortunately, the audience couldn’t read the sorrow in Mei Shu’s face. They thought she was simply afraid and didn’t dare to start playing. Some even ridiculed her, saying, “If you knew you would end up like this, why bother in the first place? It would have been better to admit defeat early and save yourself the embarrassment!”

“I’m so excited, 1 can’t wait to see Mei Shu and Teacher Zhao Min get slapped in the face! Goddess Zhou Li is bound to win tonight!”

Cheering voices rose and fell in the audience.

Zhou Li looked arrogantly towards the stage.

Now it was obviously Mei Shu’s turn to perform, but there was no one cheering for her below. Zhou Li really wanted to know what Mei Shu was feeling at this moment.

However, before she could revel in her superiority, a deep and magnetic voice interjected, “Mei Shu, just be yourself. 1 believe in your abilities.”

The whole venue fell silent.

Lu Yan’s words had more influence than the teachers’ comments. The chaotic scene just a moment ago suddenly became dead silent.

Zhou Li was so jealous that her eyes turned red, and she almost crushed the sheet music in her hand.

Hu Xin comforted her softly after seeing this, “Don’t worry, Mei Shu will definitely be no match for you!”

Zhou Li nodded slightly and turned her resentful gaze towards the stage.

Mei Shu smiled slightly in Lu Yan’s direction, her smile tinged with a deep attachment to the past.

Behind Lu Yan, Li Zhen also waved excitedly to cheer her on.

Mei Shu saw it but pretended not to, unwilling to give him any response.

[Please complete the task to win the piano competition and get a chance to draw attributes.]

Good, the system’s task was finally announced.

Mei Shu no longer wasted time and placed her ten fingers in position. Then they gently landed on the piano keys.

The piece she chose was melodious and gentle, as if a lover was whispering in one’s ear, sometimes sweetly telling tales of love, sometimes passionately declaring an eternal vow.

Every movement of her fingers played a beautiful and moving story, leading people into different moments of warmth.

When the piece ended, the melody lingered in the air.

It took several minutes for someone to react to Mei Shu’s finished performance.

This time, there was no silence in the venue, but the applause was more powerful than ever, expressing the audience’s astonishment at Mei Shu’s piano skills.

So this was the emotion Zhao Min spoke of in the piano piece?

It was so captivating that people couldn’t help but want Mei Shu to play another piece.

For a long time, it was the principal who first started clapping, and others followed suit.

Even if they didn’t want to admit it, they had to say that Mei Shu’s piano skills were indeed far superior to Zhou Li’s, and Zhou Li might never catch up with Mei Shu’s pace even if she dedicated her entire life to it.

Wen Miao was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes, and her applause was so enthusiastic that her hands turned red and she refused to stop.

The applause lasted for a full ten minutes before gradually subsiding.

Before Zhao Min could come up to give her evaluation, the principal was the first to speak, “Well deserved.”

Indeed, it was well deserved.

After this competition, everyone understood one thing.

That was, no one was more suitable than Mei Shu to represent No.i High School in the piano competition.

They were even looking forward to Mei Shu’s performance at the competition venue, believing that it would be even more memorable than what they had just witnessed.

Some people in the crowd were already searching for ways to become an audience at that competition.

Someone shouted that there were still tickets available, and all the students took out their phones to buy tickets.

Zhou Li’s face turned iron-gray as she sat in her seat, staring fiercely at the indifferent Mei Shu on the stage.

How could this be?

How could Mei Shu play the piano, and play it so well?

She had been in the countryside for so many years, and she shouldn’t have touched a piano in years!

The person sitting next to her, Hu Xin, had a similarly unhappy expression.

Now Hu Xin finally understood why Zhao Min was so sure that Mei Shu would win.. It turned out that this outstanding talent had already been discovered by Zhao Min!
