Chapter 181
Mu Qingyao had signed up for the provincial piano competition. She didn’t go to school, because she didn’t want to miss the competition.
Mu Qingyao also knew that her family’s attitude towards her had become much worse than before, because of recent events that had happened one after another.
After she fell out with Shen Zhuhang and was warned by Father Mu, she thought about her situation seriously. But she couldn’t move out like Xu Xinduo.
She didn’t have any source of income. She was used to living a luxurious life and couldn’t imagine how she would live after leaving the family.
Leaving home would make her completely fall out with Shen Zhuhang. In that case, Shen Zhuhang would not help her and nor would those plastic sisters. She would not be able to survive at all.
(T/L: Plastic sisters means friends who only have their self-interest in their minds.)
Therefore, she could only do her best to restore her parent’s impression of her.
This piano competition was her first step. She wanted the Mu family and Shen family to see her excellence.
She had listened to all the participant’s performances and felt that she had a great chance of winning after secretly weighing them out in her mind.
Full of confidence, she went up to the stage and played the tune《Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement》 she had practiced.
After playing it, she got the warmest applause from the audience.
She walked off the stage in the midst of applause. After the competition, Mother Mu came over and congratulated her for getting first place in the qualifier.
Mu Qingyao said excitedly: “Mom, while I wait for my finals, I will invite father and Uncle Shen and aunt to come and watch it together. I want them to watch me win the competition.”
At the same time, Xu Xinduo had finished her competition and won first place.
Tong Yan was still sitting foolishly, holding his mobile phone and planning to send a message to Xu Xinduo: You played the piano well today.
Yin Hua leaned over and took a look at Tong Yan’s message. She immediately deleted the message before Tong Yan could send it. She took him to the side of the venue. Her assistant gave her a bunch of flowers, which she passed over to Tong Yan.
Yin Hua said to him: “The rest is up to you to figure out. I am going home first. You will take her to my place with her luggage.”
Tong Yan held the bunch of flowers and walked towards the backstage. After Xu Xinduo walked out, he directly handed the flowers to her.
Xu Xinduo stopped and looked at flowers hesitatingly for a long time without picking them up.
Tong Yan said angrily: “There is no snake in it!”
Xu Xinduo finally reached out and took them. The corners of her mouth couldn’t help curling upward, forming a smile. A sweet smile spread on her face. It was like a warm sun shining over a lake.
It was rare for him to see Xu Xinduo smiling so sweetly. His face immediately turned slightly red. He didn’t dare to say that Yin Hua prepared for him. He just said awkwardly: “You played really well.”
Xu Xinduo held the flower, raised her chin and looked at Tong Yan. Seeing that Tong Yan stepped back uneasily to avoid her eyes, she immediately changed the subject and asked him, “Where is mom?”
“She…she went back first. She was afraid of being recognized at the end of the competition. We need to head to your place to clean up and pack, and you will be moving to her place today.”
“Actually, I don’t have many things to bring.”
“Don’t bring the sanitary napkins. Just go there and buy them again.”
“Then there is not much left to bring.”
