Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I promised to announce Xingyue’s identity as my personal disciple after she comes of age. Today is also a good opportunity to thank all the leaders, teachers, and students for their witness!”
After saying that, Lapor turned off the microphone and walked towards Tan Xingyue and Wen Xin, holding the hem of her long dress in one hand.
She had wanted to greet Wen Xin directly, but based on Wen Xin’s personality, she would probably get angry and leave without paying any attention to her. Hence, she decided to announce Tan Xingyue’s identity directly. With such a painstakingly roundabout tactic, Wen Xin should not be angry.
Su Li stood rooted to the ground, staring blankly in the direction Lapore had left. Geng Qiu was completely dazed. They had been praised to such heights, but now, they had been thrown down so ruthlessly. They could already feel the malicious gazes directed at them.
Mu Chengxi stood at a distance, lazily watching the group of people standing near the rostrum, a hint of amusement in his eyes. This time, the embarrassment was truly significant and utterly ridiculous.
The noble ladies standing beside Su Li also felt the mocking gazes around them. They looked at Su Li and Geng Qiu mockingly, as if they were looking at clowns.
“Paying for a few lessons and claiming to be the direct disciple, did you hear that? A true disciple is the one who drinks tea, and gives gifts; you guys haven’t done anything like that. Yet, you dare to use her name falsely and spread rumors everywhere! No wonder you’re not needed for the reception!”
The mayor’s wife finally couldn’t help but speak up. It was really embarrassing for her to sit with Su Li and the others. She had been slapped in the face by others.
“No wonder there were rumors in Ice City that the Geng family’s mother and daughter went to the police to make a false report. Now it seems like it wasn’t a misunderstanding. If the master said that you used her name to swindle people, I’m afraid you’ll have to go to jail. How unlucky!”
The police chief’s wife also spoke up at this moment. When she called Su Li back then, she had said many good things. Su Li had even deliberately made things difficult for her because of Geng Qiu. She had even specially given her an expensive bracelet.
“Alright, alright. Let’s go back. We’ve watched the public lecture. It’s not considered a loss. We’ve just embarrassed ourselves!”
The wife of a real estate company at the side spoke up. She was invited by Su
Li, so she took the initiative to say something to smooth things over. It did not make her angry or awkward.
The group of noblewomen left with cold faces. In the end, only Madam Zhao remained where she was. She raised her hand and slapped Geng Qiu.
“It’s all because of you. Now we’ve become the joke of the whole Ice City. It seems that you really have to reconsider your relationship with Yuzheng. Don’t go to the Zhao family again if you have nothing to do. Don’t go if you have something to do. The trouble you caused is really embarrassing!”
After saying that, Madam Zhao completely ignored Su Li and Geng Qiu’s expressions. She grabbed Zhao Yuzheng’s arm and dragged him away.
When he reached the entrance, he looked in Yan Yan’s direction and said coldly, “What are you still looking at? Let’s go home together!”
Yan Yan, who was sitting at the same spot, was watching the show with relish. She was stunned for a moment when she was suddenly called out. However, she quickly reacted. She carried her handbag and stood up excitedly. She ran to Zhao Yuzheng’s side and clung onto Zhao Yuzheng’s arm before leaving with Madam Zhao.
“Ah!” When Geng Qiu, who had been slapped, saw this scene, she suddenly broke down. She covered her face and screamed before running out. Su Li did not care about anything else. She took her bag and chased after her.
“How embarrassing!” Liang Luoyu stood beside Mu Chengxi and spoke coldly. Even a professional onlooker could not help but express his opinion. This scene was really exciting.
Having witnessed the end of the farce, Lapor Boer walked over to Wen Xin and Tan Xingyu, giving Tan Xingyu a playful raise of the eyebrows.
Everyone was stunned to see this side of the piano master. Where did the serious and cold piano master go? This seemed a little unfamiliar to them. Tan Xingyue smiled sweetly at Lapor and greeted her gently,” Hello, teacher.”
‘ Hello, Little Xingyue. I’ve heard that you’ve recovered, but I didn’t have time to come back to see you. Now that you’ve recovered, it’s great!”
Lapor raised her hand and pinched Tan Xingyue’s cheek lightly. Everyone was stunned. This action and expression were exactly the same as Wen Xin’s.
Just as everyone was in a daze, Lapor placed his arm around Wen Xin’s shoulder and said intimately, “What’s wrong? Why didn’t you greet me when we met? Are you still angry that I didn’t inform you I was attending your school for a public lecture?”
“No, I wasn’t, “Wen Xin said calmly. She had not expected that Lapor would actually give Geng Qiu a heavy blow, somewhat ruining her plans.
“With your attitude, I won’t believe you even if you say you didn’t. Quick, call me aunt!”
“Aunty?”
Looking at Lapor and Wen Xin’s familiar actions, and hearing her ask Wen Xin to call her aunt, the students of Class Twenty were all shocked and let out surprised cries.
Even Mu Chengxi, who had just walked over, was slightly taken aback. Wen Xin actually knew Master Lapor? They had a special relationship?
Wen Xin glanced at Mu Chengxi, who was standing not far away. She pulled away Raphael’s arm that was casually wrapped around her neck and called out impatiently, “Aunty.”
“That’s good! Are these all your classmates? Let’s go eat together. It’s my treat!”
The students of Class Twenty all looked at Lapor in surprise. The piano master, who was high and mighty just a moment ago, had suddenly become so friendly. She even wanted to treat them to a meal. Were they dreaming?
“That aunt…Ah, no, Master, can I take a photo with you? I’ve also learned to play the piano since I was young, but I’ve only passed the eighth grade. I…
You’re my idol, I…”
Su Xue carefully walked out from the back of the crowd and stammered as she spoke to Lapor. She felt as if she was in a dream. Who would have thought that she would be able to see and talk to the piano master with Wen Xin’s help?
“Of course. Anyone who wants to take a photo with me can do it one by one.” Master Lapor was very friendly to them. She was no longer as high and mighty as before.
Zhao Yuyao sat on the chair with his legs wobbly, and he pulled Wen Xin to the side.
“Little Grandaunt, I’m not dreaming, right? Look at Vice-principal Li, Chu Jie, and the people from the experimental class. They’re about to go crazy with anger. I heard that Geng Qiu promised to take a photo with Master Lapor with the experimental class!”
Wen Xin turned her head to look at Zhao Yuyao. She pinched Zhao Yuyao’s thigh. Soon, a scream could be heard.
“Now, can you be sure it’s not a dream?”
