Someone couldn’t help but say, “Since Miss Shen isn’t from the entertainment industry, why did you force her to go on stage? Luckily she can play well. If she didn’t, wouldn’t you use your reputation as a musician to lecture her?”
Lin Shijia gave a cold sneer and said, “Not really. But as a musician, it’s fine to give her some pointers. Miss Shen Fanxing can play very well and so can Miss Shen Qianrou. The only pity is that Miss Shen Fanxing isn’t in the industry and she doesn’t have much influence on the show…”
They could tell that Lin Shijia was protecting Shen Qianrou!
“You…”
“Don’t argue any more. Producer Lin was invited to attend the music festival in Country M…”
“Yeah, he even went on an international tour with a famous symphony orchestra…”
“Getting him to give some pointers is actually a good thing…”
She was speechless…
“Wouldn’t Shen Fanxing be too pitiful? Back then at the piano competition…”
Shen Fanxing blinked slowly, seemingly unaffected by them.
She said calmly,
“Because one isn’t as good as her opponent, lady luck dictated the outcome instead.”
Everyone fell silent for a moment before laughing again.
Judging from Shen Fanxing’s attitude, she seemed to be talking to herself!
But everyone understood that these words were perfect for someone tonight.
Lin Shijia was merely giving her an excuse out of the situation!
Was Shen Fanxing a joke now?
No!
The real joke was the person who had received preferential treatment despite being inferior.
Shen Fanxing’s lips curled into a grin. Her features were exquisite and her eyes sparkled. Her ponytail swayed as she turned her head to look at Shen Qianrou.
“As for the piano competition back then, those who wanted to ruin me, I’m currently investigating…”
Shen Qianrou suddenly gripped the hem of her gown tightly. Her face was slightly pale and she lowered her head. She didn’t dare to meet Shen Fanxing’s eyes.
Shen Fanxing narrowed her eyes before saying,
“Today is Old Master Pei’s birthday celebration and it’s his day. There’s no need to discuss my private matters here. I wish Old Master Pei a long and happy life!”
“Good! Good! Thank you!”
Old Master Pei’s face had darkened at Lin Shijia’s actions, but with so many guests present, he had to suppress his temper.
It was the young people’s fault for being insensible!
Hearing Shen Fanxing’s speech, admiration filled his eyes.
Shen Fanxing nodded lightly and prepared to leave the stage.
“Miss, please hold on!”
Shen Fanxing stopped in time and spun in the direction of the voice.
At a table not far away from the Old Master, a good-looking man stood up. He was wearing a purple tailor-made suit, and his eyebrows were deep and thick. He looked as though he was of a mixed descent.
He nodded at Shen Fanxing in a gentlemanly manner and asked,
“I’m really lucky to be able to hear such a magnificent piano performance today. There will be a grand state event in Country Y this fall. I’m sorry to be intrusive, but I wonder if you would accept my invitation and perform at the event?”
Everyone exclaimed at his words!
Shen Qianrou and Lin Shijia’s faces froze!
A state event!
That was a place that most of them couldn’t go in their entire lives!
Even Shen Fanxing was taken aback, as it was totally unexpected.
