“There’s no such thing as taking advantage of them. None of them are good people. One of them is using this opportunity to gain fame, while the other is using this opportunity to get close to Master Lapor. They all have their own goals. I think the most pitiful one is Chu Jie. She accompanied her the entire time and there’s nothing to gain.”
Some of the students who knew the inside story had analyzed the matter very thoroughly and had long seen through their motives.
“How can there be no benefits for Chu Jie? Don’t you know what Chu Jie’s husband does? That’s an educational institution. A group photo can bring him many students. That’s all money…”
“Damn, now that you guys put it this way, it’s too terrifying! A public lecture has become so commercial. It’s terrifying!”
As Wen Xin listened to the people’s chatter, her eyes were filled with a faint smile, as if she had already seen through them and did not care at all.
Tan Xingyue sat beside Wen Xin and gently tugged at the hem of Wen Xin’s shirt. Wen Xin turned to look at Tan Xingyue, her gaze gentle and filled with affection. “What’s wrong?”
It was the first time the other students had seen Wen Xin’s gaze. They all covered their chests in unison, unable to stand it at all. How could someone be so seductive with just a look? It was truly overwhelming.
“Is she really here for Geng Qiu?”
Wen Xin naturally knew who Tan Xingyue was talking about. She smiled lightly and shook her head.” I don’t know either. She didn’t contact me when she came to Ice City. I don’t know what she wants either.”
Thunderous applause sounded. As Vice Principal Li’s voice fell, the mysterious and anticipated Master Lapor finally appeared.
The woman looked to be in her thirties. She was wearing an exquisite light purple dress. Her long hair was tied up casually, giving off a lazy beauty.
She had a standard Western face, delicate facial features, and blue eyes. The first impression she gave people was that she looked like a Barbie doll on the shelf, exquisite and beautiful.
The moment she spoke, everyone in the hall was shocked. She spoke fluent Mandarin without any foreign accent, as if she was born and raised in this country.
She did not speak fast but spoke slowly. From time to time, she would pop out a few English sentences with extremely perfect pronunciation to explain the professional terms of the piano.
Her words were humorous, and from time to time, they caused bursts of applause in the hall.
Most of the people in Class Twenty were rich kids and had some understanding of the piano. Some of them even went to take the piano level test. After listening to Lapor’s lecture, they felt like they had gained a new understanding of the piano.
The public lecture was only an hour long. Lapor only explained some theoretical knowledge and had no intention of playing the piano at all. This made Vice Principal Li, who had not prepared the piano, heave a sigh of relief.
After the public lecture ended, because Lapor’s lecture was too exciting, all the students sat on the spot, unwilling to leave.
“Sister Xin, school will be over after today’s public class. Let’s go out for a meal together?” Ever since Qin Ling’s monthly exam results improved, he had been wanting to invite everyone to dinner. Today was a good opportunity.
At that moment, Wen Xin’s phone vibrated. She knew without thinking that it must be a message from Mu Chengxi.
“I won’t go. You guys go together. I have something to do later.”
When they heard Wen Xin say that she still had things to do, their first reaction was to look in Mu Chengxi’s direction. At that moment, Mu Chengxi was standing up and talking to the principal.
They slowly retracted their gazes and looked at Wen Xin, expressing their understanding. With such an outstanding boyfriend, who wouldn’t accompany their boyfriend?
Wen Xin did not notice the envious gazes of her classmates. She narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction of the podium.
The ladies from Ice City who came to watch the public lesson finally had the chance to get close to the piano master. They all surrounded her.
Of course, Geng Qiu was the first to walk to Lapor’s side and sweetly call her teacher.
Lapor looked at Geng Qiu and suddenly remembered something important. She ?had almost forgotten the purpose of her visit today. Lapor casually turned on the microphone that she had just turned off.
“Master Lapor, thank you so much for coming to No.l Middle School to hold a public lecture just for Qiuqiu. I know you’ve never done this before. Thank you for taking care of Qiuqiu.”
Su Li’s voice came from the speaker and echoed throughout the entire hall.
All the students who were about to leave stopped in their tracks and looked in the direction of the podium. They did not expect Geng Qiu’s mother to be so high -profile—she were afraid that they would not know that it was all thanks to her daughter that they were able to invite Master Lapor.
Lapor looked at Su Li and smiled faintly. Then, she shook her head gently and spoke in a gentle voice. There was a faint coldness in her voice, and she did not have the free and easy humor from before.
“I’m very sorry. I think Madam Geng might have misunderstood…”
As soon as Lapor opened her mouth, a surprised murmur echoed though the entire hall. Wasn’t this expected? How did it become a misunderstanding? What was going on?
Many people who wanted to leave stopped in their tracks. Some even returned to their seats and sat down, wanting to hear what the so-called misunderstanding was.
Geng Qiu looked at Master La POI awkwardly. The fact that she, who hadn’t grown up, was openly rebuffed by La POI was embarrassing, especially considering she had volunteered for it.
“Teacher, didn’t you promise me to come? Why did you say that?” Geng Qiu’s voice trembled. She had a feeling that something out of her control would happen.
“Teacher, if there’s anything, let’s go back and talk…” Geng Qiu hesitated for a moment. She felt that pulling Lapor away was the most important thing now. She raised her hand and wanted to turn off the speaker in front of Lapor.
However, someone moved faster than her. Vice-principal Wang immediately blocked Geng Qiu’s hand.
“Geng Qiu, let Master Lapor finish her sentence. You’re being very rude.”
Lapor glanced at Geng Qiu’s pale face and smiled faintly.” I did teach Geng Qiu how to play the piano, but she’s not my disciple. I’ve never acknowledged her as my disciple in the piano world.”
“A reporter once interviewed me. Haven’t you nurtured your own inheritor all these years? My answer is, of course, there is. However, this person is not the Geng Qiu you are talking about. It is Tan Xingyue, who I drank the apprenticeship tea and gave the apprenticeship gift to.”
“Little Xingyue, have you forgotten how to greet your teacher?”
Lapor looked in Tan Xingyue’s direction with a gentle gaze. Her gentle and genial tone was a stark contrast to the tone she used to speak to Geng Qiu.
“I came to No.l Middle School for a public class today to clarify the rumors about me..”
