A mocking smile hung on Li Beinian’s delicate face.
The warm light showered on her, making her look even purer.
She looked like she was in high spirits and beaming with pride, like a queen commanding her empire.
Mu Donglin felt that this woman was even more mysterious now.
There seemed to be many different sides to her.
But every single side of hers was different from others.
It was as if a pure, gentle spring had filled up the void in his heart.
And Li Beinian was that spring, flowing inside him.
After hearing Li Beinian’s words, Tong Yujia was furious. She shouted, “If you are afraid or dare not do it, then admit it. I won’t force you.”
“If you say so.” Li Beinian raised her eyebrows in agreement and looked to Li Xueqing. “Take on her challenge, stop her from getting too smug.”
Li Xueqing’s face turned pale.
She knew a bit of piano, but in front of the City Champion, there was no way she could compete against her.
Any competition would end up in embarrassment for her!
Li Beinian was doing all these on purpose!
“It’s just a little competition. The outcome doesn’t matter as long as you try!” Someone called out.
“Precisely. She already challenged you to it, if you don’t take her up you’ll look like a loser!”
“Haha, if you don’t have what it takes, just say so. She said she won’t force you.”
…
Li Xueqing turned even paler. She clenched her fist and gritted her teeth. “Bring it on!”
The crowd was shocked by her response. Then, they started cheering and clapping.
Li Xueqing couldn’t back down anymore. However, there was no way she could compete!
She had absolutely nothing in her to take the challenge!
It would be an embarrassment if she messed it all up!
Turning around, she walked towards the piano in the middle of the hall.
A flash of brilliance dashed across her mind. She deliberately paused in front of Li Beinian.
She looked at Li Beinian in shock and shouted, “What? You want to take her on?”
Li Beinian was stunned. “What?”
Li Xueqing continued, “What? She’s nothing to you? Miss Tong is the City Champion.”
Before Li Beinian could react, a commotion formed in the crowd.
“Is she crazy? Does she know how many awards Tong Yujia has?”
“Who doesn’t know that Li Beinian was just brought over this year.”
Before this, she was mixing with lowly gangsters.
Rumors were that she was good at all the vices: drinking alcohol, speeding, and gambling. There was no way she knew how to play the piano.
Tong Yujia sneered. “You? Are you capable?”
“Jia Jia, don’t fool around!” Father Tong frowned and stopped her. “Apologize to Miss Li. This is not a place for you to throw your tantrums!”
Li Beinian knew how to play the piano?
No one believed it!
If Tong Yujia put Li Beinian in a difficult state in public, she would offend more than just the Li family.
Lin Kerou pulled Tong Yujia aside and said anxiously, “Jia Jia, stop being so stubborn. This is not the place to fool around. Let’s go.”
“No. She was the one who wanted to challenge me!” Tong Yujia got angry. She said softly to Lin Kerou, “She stole Brother Donglin. I finally have this chance for revenge. I’m not going to let it slip away!”
Lin Kerou looked at Li Beinian hesitantly. “But…”
“Sister Kerou, you have to stop being so kind all the time. Since she dares to challenge me, she must have something in her. After all, she’s brother Donglin’s fiancée!”
The last sentence was said very loudly.
“Tsk tsk.” Li Beinian looked at her with pity. “If you say so, I’ll take you on. However, if you are afraid or dare not do it, then admit it. I won’t force you.”
