“Why are you hiding here alone?”
Wen Shiyu opened her eyes and saw Pei Shixi sitting on the sofa next to her with a gla*s of wine, followed by a long-faced Kathleen behind her.
She pretended not to see Kathleen’s unhappy look and responded to Pei Shixi, “It’s quiet here, it allows me to enjoy the music better.”
After all, she had already made it clear that she had a very loving boyfriend, and Kathleen still had to be so shady, so there was no point in backing down.
One couldn’t even want one’s friends because of someone like that.
With that, Wen Shiyu and Bae Se Hee talked about music.
Bae Seok-hee gave Wen Shiyu a lesson on the identity of each performer on stage, as well as the songs that became famous.
“If you have the chance, I think you can find the time to watch all of these people’s performances, especially Senpai Bird’s, I have gained a lot from every one of his performances.”
At the end of the conversation, Pei Shixi made a general feeling.
Wen Shiyu thought about it and made a mental note of the name Bird, if she had time, she would definitely go and see this senior perform.
Kathleen watched the two chatting fitfully and tried to force her way into the conversation several times, but it didn’t work out well.
For this reason, her resentment towards Wen Shiyu grew and her eyes became more and more sinister.
At this time, I don’t know who said, “Hathaway, I heard that you took in a beloved pupil some time ago with amazing talent, why don’t you let your pupil perform on stage tonight?”
“Who says I won’t let her perform, it’s not like I’m going to let her come out after you guys have finished showing off the squeeze.”
Hathaway said and began to look around the venue, searching for Wen Shiyu.
Their talk was not a whisper, and both Wen Shiyu and Pei Shixi heard it.
Pei Shixi smiled, “Let’s go, it’s your turn to perform.”
Wen Shiyu nodded, got up and walked over to the teacher.
“Teacher.”
“You heard everything you just said, right? Perform well and don’t disgrace your teacher.”
After the words were said, Hathaway patted Wen Shiyu’s shoulder as a sign of encouragement.
Wen Shiyu smiled and nodded her head, and went backstage.
A few minutes later, she stepped onto the stage with her violin, her stiletto heels on, and her skirt in one hand.
The moment she stepped on stage, the guests on stage involuntarily fell silent.
After bowing, Wen Shiyu set up her violin and prepared to perform.
What she never expected was that only three bars into her performance, the strings broke and the beautiful melody broke!
Looking at the broken string, the audience was in an uproar.
Wen Shiyu was also stunned.
This zither was given to her by Feng Shenye, so there was no way the strings would break so easily.
The guests at the bottom were also talking.
“What’s going on? How did the string break? Did she not even check it when she performed on stage?”
“It’s reasonable to say that violin strings don’t break so easily, there should be an inside story.”
“Whatever the inside story, I think Hathaway’s protégé’s performance is going to end in failure tonight.”
“It’s a shame, I heard a lot of people talking about Hathaway’s apprentice’s talent before the music academy celebration, and I thought I would hear it tonight.”
“Pity, pity.”
Listening to the constant lamentations all around, Cathleen stared at Wen Shiyu, the corners of her mouth curling up in triumph.
Pei Shixi didn’t notice the misstep on Kathleen’s face.
He wanted to go up and save the show, but who knew that when he took a step, his whole body was shocked in place.
It turned out that Wen Shiyu had also heard the chatter from the stage and was resigned to the fact that her hard-earned performance opportunity had been ruined like this.
She forced herself to calm down.
Although the violin was broken down to one string, it did not mean that the performance could not go on.
With that in mind, she ignored the murmurs from the stage and set the little draughtsman back up.
“What is she doing here? Does she want to continue the show with this violin with the broken string?”
“That can’t be right, a single-stringed violin is difficult!”
“Since she has made such a decision, she must be completely sure of herself, so all of you should stop talking, lest you affect my appreciation of music.”
