However, she was indeed well-behaved tonight. She was humble and modest.
She didn’t want anyone to judge her?
Ha…
She looked so confident, as though she was in a hurry to prove herself.
Even though there were no media representatives present, that didn’t mean that no one had sneaked in. Moreover, even if there were no reporters, Shen Qianrou would have benefited from fooling one or two of the guests present.
Naturally, she would leave a favorable impression on the Pei family as well. Why not?
But how could there be such a coincidence?
Shen Fanxing shifted her gaze to the man who had made the suggestion. Something flashed across her beautiful eyes.
The tune that Shen Qianrou was playing was ‘Ballade Pour Adeline ‘by Richard Clayderman.
In the vast hall, a melodious tune drifted gently into everyone’s ears. The sound of the piano was pleasant and soothing, and it conveyed a happy and warm scene.
When the last note ended, the person who had started all this started clapping again.
Everyone applauded and cheered.
“Not bad, not bad! It’s pleasant to the ears and creates an artistic mood. Miss Shen’s piano skills are indeed outstanding and her musical achievements are notable!”
“It’s indeed quite good.”
“Miss Shen, how many years have you learned the piano?”
Shen Qianrou smiled and stood up.
“I’ve been too busy with work these few years and I have not been playing it often. So far, it’s been about 16 years.”
“It’s so nice. Miss Shen, with your standard, it’s reasonable for you to win a Music Ocean trophy.”
“Even without the Music Ocean trophy as proof, Miss Shen’s skills are outstanding no matter where she goes. It’s just a trophy…”
Shen Qianrou smiled and shook her head gently. Then, she turned to look at the man and nodded slightly at him.
That man smiled even more radiantly and nodded repeatedly.
Not long after, his gaze landed on Shen Fanxing.
“Miss Shen Fanxing, what do you think of your sister’s performance just now?”
Shen Fanxing sat calmly on her seat. Upon hearing him, she slowly raised her gaze. Her eyes glinted coldly under the light, and they were as bright as the stars. With a hint of aloofness and arrogance, she stared coldly at the man.
Moments later, her lips curled slightly. Instead of answering the man’s question, she asked,
“May I ask who you are?”
The moment Shen Fanxing finished speaking, the guests around her burst into laughter.
The smile on the man’s face gradually froze.
That simple question seemed to be conveying, “Do I know you? Why should I answer your question?”
How arrogant!
The man’s face paled before he forced a smile as he stiffened.
“I’m Lin Shijia. My mother is an unknown musician.”
“Lin Shijia? That name sounds familiar.”
“He’s a famous music producer! There are many popular singers and many famous celebrities who are clamoring for him to write a song!”
“I remember he’s the disciple of the former music legend, Shi Sixin. Shi Sixin has produced two immensely talented singers. She has wrote countless songs for celebrities! Lin Shijia is only last disciple!”
Upon hearing the guests gasps, the gloominess on Lin Shijia’s face vanished and his smugness appeared. He stared at Shen Fanxing provocatively.
Shen Fanxing nodded in response.
“I see. Since the great Producer Lin is full of praise for her piano skills, I naturally think it’s good too.”
Seeing how calm and composed she was, Lin Shijia frowned slightly.
At this moment, Shen Qianrou smiled and said, “Thank you for your compliment, Sister. This is the first time in my life that I’ve received your approval. I’m very happy!”
Shen Fanxing raised an eyebrow but she didn’t comment.
Since she was in the capital city and it was Old Master Pei’s birthday, even Shen Qianrou knew what she shouldn’t say. Naturally, she wouldn’t be stupid enough to do something inappropriate.
“First time being praised? In that case, Miss Shen Fanxing, aren’t you merely following the herd today? Didn’t you participate in the piano competition back then? Why don’t you give a detailed evaluation now?”
Shen Fanxing shook her head lightly and said, “I can’t comment because I’m not eloquent.”
“In that case, why don’t you perform a song yourself and let us judge what is good?”
