“Priscilla lost to you today mostly because she was nervous. If you hadn’t revealed your identity, Priscilla would never have lost to you today!” Connor continued on.
Priscilla looked at Connor with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She couldn’t understand how Connor could see through all these things.
The people outside the piano room also looked at Connor in surprise. They could feel that what Connor said just now seemed to be true. Otherwise, Justin would not have not refuted him.
“You actually know how to play the piano?”
Justin hesitated for a while and asked Connor in a low voice.
“Don’t you feel ashamed that the personal disciple of a great pianist has fallen to the point of bullying ordinary people?”
Connor said sharply.
“Haha…”
Justin looked at Connor and sneered. Then, he shouted, “Since you know so much about the piano, do you dare to compete with me?”
“It’s okay to compete in a duel, but if you lose, you and your girlfriend will have to kneel down and apologize to my fiancee!”
Connor replied indifferently.
“What if you lose?”
Justin quickly asked.
“I’m a good-for-nothing. Isn’t it normal for me to lose?”
Connor smiled and said.
“You…”
Justin looked at Connor with a hint of helplessness. It was very clear what Connor meant. If he lost, he would have to kneel down and apologize to Freya. But if he won, Connor didn’t have to do anything. Wasn’t this a little too unfair?
And this was the first time someone was calling Justin trash, and he actually said it so righteously.
“What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you don’t dare to compare yourself to a piece of trash like me? Are you afraid of losing to me?”
Connor asked with a smile when he saw that Justin was silent.
“Fine, I’m not afraid of you!”
Justin was provoked by Connor and shouted at the top of his lungs.
“Haha…”
Connor looked at Justin with a faint smile and didn’t say anything.
“Connor, you’re a poor loser who delivers takeout, how can you know anything about the piano? You’d better not embarrass the Phillips Family here!”
However, at this moment, an extremely discordant voice sounded.
When everyone heard this, they all turned their heads to look at the entrance to the second floor.
The person who spoke just now was none other than Freya’s cousin, Zander Phillips!
At this moment, not only Zander, but Qahira Zeller and Ailee West were also by his side.
Just now, Zander suddenly received news that Freya, Priscilla, and the others had embarrassed themselves at the Collective Stroke.
Therefore, the three of them rushed over in a hurry. As soon as they entered the art center, they heard the conversation between Connor and Justin.
After leaving the hotel last night, Zander was very curious about Connor’s background, so he asked his friends in Porthampton to investigate.
This investigation gave Zander a huge shock.
He realized that Connor was just a poor student who delivered food. He had no background at all.
“Deliver takeout?”
Everyone looked at Connor in shock.
“I didn’t expect this kid to be a delivery man. I thought he really knows how to play the piano!”
“Yeah, so he’s just a delivery man!”
After hearing Zander’s words, everyone started to laugh at Connor.
“Connor, what are you still standing here for? I know you don’t know anything about the piano, so stop pretending and get lost!”
Zander walked into the piano room on the second floor and shouted at Connor in disdain.
Connor glanced at Zander indifferently and said expressionlessly, “Who told you that you can’t play the piano if you deliver food?”
When Connor finished speaking, the entire piano room fell into a deathly silence.
Meanwhile, Zander stared at Connor with eyes filled with disdain.
Because he felt that only those in the upper class could play the piano and that Connor had nothing to do with the piano.
“Do you think I’m concerned about you? I’m just worried that you’ll embarrass the Phillips Family, you know?”
Zander could not find a reason to refute Connor, so he continued to mock him.
“Zander, Connor is my fiance, so it’s not your place to interfere. I support Connor’s duel with Justin!”
Freya walked up to Connor and exclaimed.
“That’s right. Connor is not a professional pianist. Even if he loses to Justin, there’s nothing to be ashamed of. I support Connor too!”
Priscilla had a hunch that Connor’s piano skills were definitely not bad, because she could feel it from Connor’s words just now.
“I support Connor too!”
Maya shouted as well.
Compared to the useless Connor, Maya hated people like Zander and Qahira even more, so she had to stand on Freya’s side.
But Maya still didn’t believe that Connor could really play the piano.
“Are… Are you guys crazy? How could you believe that a delivery man could play the piano? This is crazy…
Zander shouted at Freya, Priscilla, and the rest.
Connor ignored Zander and asked Justin, “Do you still dare to compete with me?”
“Why not? Would my hubby lose to a useless delivery man like you?”
Before Justin could speak, Hailey hurriedly replied.
Justin, on the other hand, had a helpless look on his face. First of all, he could feel that Connor definitely knew how to play the piano. His piano skills might be very good.
Initially, he wanted to take advantage of Zander’s actions to reject the competition on the grounds that Connor was not qualified to compete with him. However, he did not expect Hailey to agree on his behalf.
“Choose a song!”
Since Hailey had already agreed, Justin naturally did not dare to refuse. He could only brace himself for what’s to come.
“Hehe, you want me to choose a song?”
Connor smiled faintly and said in a very calm tone, “What do you think of Symphony N0.9?”
When everyone heard Connor’s words, they all sucked in a breath of cold air.
Symphony No. 9 by Bach was the most famous piece in the piano world.
The reason why this piece was so famous was not because it was so beautiful or popular, but because it was extremely difficult to perform. Even famous pianists in the world might not be able to perform it.
It was because it was very difficult for people to perform such a piece that depicted the despair one felt from losing one’s hearing.
If you didn’t have that kind of personal experience, you wouldn’t be able to perfectly display this kind of emotion.
As the personal disciple of the great pianist, Justin knew this very well.
In the entire piano world, countless great pianists wanted to recreate this piece, but none of them could do it.
Priscilla competed with Justin with the song ‘Wedding in a Dream’. Compared to that song, Symphony No.9 was very different.
Because there were many people who could perform ‘Wedding in a Dream’, but there were only a few who could perform Symphony No.9..
