Su Jin had no intention of participating in this competition but Hou Wan’er didn’t listen to her. She had little choice now but to join the competition as well. Su Jin didn’t care about anything else as long as she could prevent that incident from hurting Hou Wan’er. When Hou Wan’er heard Su Jin’s words, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she said,

“Su Jin, did you think you can escape? I was all set to sign you up!”

Hou Wan’er’s aura changed as she said this. They had known each other since young and Su Jin’s piano skills had always been on par with hers. Hou Wan’er had long wanted to compete with Su Jin, and this was the best opportunity. Hou Wan’er said confidently,

“Su Jin, this time I will beat you in the competition and win the whole thing!”

Su Jin heard Hou Wan’er’s words and naturally did not want to be outdone. Their skills were comparable but Su Jin was just a bit better than Hou Wan’er. Every time they competed, Su Jin could win. Su Jin did not expect Hou Wan’er to say this to her but if it was just for this, Su Jin would rather admit defeat than to let anything happen to Hou Wan’er. Su Jin couldn’t help but say,

“Wan’er, do you have to be so childish? I only beat you once in a competition before!”

Hou Wan’er thought about that competition and felt a little depressed. Su Jin wasn’t supposed to participate in that competition but the person who was supposed to participate suddenly fell ill and the teacher had no choice but to let amateur Su Jin join. Su Jin wasn’t trained professionally and Hou Wan’er heard from her mom that she only practiced occasionally. Also, Su Jin told everyone that she wasn’t very good and that they shouldn’t take her too seriously; she was just a seat filler. But in the end, Su Jin won the competition. At the thought of this, Hou Wan’er gritted her teeth and said,

“What do you mean by beating me just once? That championship was clearly mine, but a forced participant like you won it and made me the runner-up. Do you know how long I cried when I went home?”

Su Jin was stunned when she heard this. She didn’t expect Hou Wan’er to cry over this matter. Just because of a championship? Then should Su Jin compete for real in the national piano competition that they would both join? Su Jin said in disbelief,

“You will cry if you don’t win the competition?”

Hou Wan’er narrowed her eyes and looked at Su Jin warily when she heard this. If Su Jin said this, it was very likely that she would throw the competition. Hou Wan’er wouldn’t be really happy even if she won it. Hou Wan’er wanted to win against Su Jin for real, so she immediately warned,

“Su Jin, I’m warning you. If you throw the competition, I won’t let you go!”

Su Jin felt a little helpless when she heard this. This was too difficult. If she won, Hou Wan’er would go home and cry. How could she throw the competition without Hou Wan’er finding out? She also couldn’t just admit defeat. If Hou Wan’er found out that she threw the competition, she might really unfriend her!

At this moment, a youth walked past Hou Wan’er. He had a head of long silver-white hair and was dressed in ancient clothes. It was as if he was a noble young master from ancient times who had time-travelled to modern times. Hou Wan’er couldn’t stop staring at him as she sighed,

“An unparalleled young master in our world. Why is senior so handsome? He is like an otherworldly elf!”

Su Jin was speechless. Although she knew that Hou Wan’er liked this guy, she did not expect her to be so infatuated that she could say such words. Hou Wan’er must regret it very much if she couldn’t be with this guy… Su Jin said lightly,

“You said it rather well.”

Hou Wan’er was speechless when she heard this. This senior was so handsome. Hou Wan’er felt that what she said was right. Su Jin was an idiot. How could she understand the senior’s good looks and intelligence? Hou Wan’er glared at Su Jin and said a little angrily,

“Su Jin, shouldn’t you say that I have good taste? Senior is indeed handsome, and we are a good match?”

Su Jin raised her head and looked at the senior who was walking in front of them. Su Jin felt that he was just average. The demon king she has at home was the unparalleled man in the world. Compared to the demon king, other men were simply rubbish. Su Jin replied casually,

“Really? I don’t think so!”
