Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Helio, Senior Wu,” Mei Shu addressed him respectfully. “I learned piano from my mother and didn’t have other teachers.”
“Oh?” Senior Wu suddenly became very interested in Mei Shu’s mother. “Is your mother here at the venue? Let her come up and meet me.”
Being able to teach this girl so well, Mei Shu’s mother must have had remarkable achievements in piano. Since they were all part of the same circle, it was possible that this girl was the child of an old acquaintance.
“I’m sorry, Senior Wu, my mother passed away a few years ago,” Mei Shu said with her eyes lowered, trying to conceal her overwhelming grief.
Everyone heard her words loud and clear.
Many of Mei Shu’s admirers couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. Students from No.1 High School naturally thought of Mei Mu.
They had always believed that the Mei family was harmonious, and the daughter of the Mei family should be living a happy life. However, they had never known Mei Shu’s true background.
They had foolishly believed Mei Mu’s lies and bullied Mei Shu, which was truly despicable!
Even Senior Wu couldn’t help but show sympathy. “Good child, if you’re willing, I, Wu Hui, would like to publicly take you as my student!”
This not only surprised Zhang Jun and the others but also made Lu Si raise an eyebrow slightly. “Senior Wu is very selective in accepting students. Mei Shu, this proves that you are indeed outstanding.”
Feeling flattered and grateful for Lu Si’s recent help, Mei Shu thanked him softly.
Lu Si’s smile expanded, and Jiang He, who was standing beside him, was shocked to the point of almost dropping his jaw on the stage.
What was going on with Master Lu Si today?
Why did he suddenly become so happy? It seemed like he was in a good mood?
He was still staring at Master Lu Si’s face, dazed by the change in his expression, when a cold gaze fell mercilessly on him.
Jiang He looked up and met Lu Si’s angry eyes. He quickly straightened his face, lowering his head solemnly, not daring to daydream and stare at Lu Si again.
Meanwhile, Senior Wen, without waiting for Mei Shu to respond, quickly protested, “You old thing, I haven’t said I want to take a student yet, and you already want to claim her? Mei Shu is a talented seedling, and I want her to be my student too!”
These two old men almost came to blows over ATei Shu.
The audience below looked at each other; who wouldn’t know Mei Shu’s importance now? It was likely that before the competition ended, the news of Mei Shu being fought over by two piano masters would spread like wildfire on the internet.
Mei Shu’s future was limitless!
The students from No.i High School felt particularly proud!
They were proud to like Mei Shu. They would continue to support her, and as for Mei Mu and Zhou Li, they were no longer in the same league as Mei Shu in their eyes.
The two veteran pianists were still on stage, one trying to outdo the other, and Mei Shu listened with a smile. Finally, she felt quite embarrassed and said, “Both of you have things worthy of my learning. If you don’t mind, I’d like to humbly seek advice from both of you.”
Did she just take both veteran masters as her teachers?
Zhang Jun was stunned and kindly reminded her, “Mei Shu, this isn’t appropriate, and I’m afraid the two seniors wouldn’t be pleased.”
Mei Shu looked surprised at the two old men in front of her, who were like two mischievous children.
Senior Wu impatiently waved his hand, “Zhang’s kid, don’t worry about us. Whatever my disciple says goes!” With him around, he wouldn’t let Senior Wen steal his beloved student!
Senior Wen also had a “mind your own business” expression and said, “Let’s do as Mei Shu says. It doesn’t matter if I’m happy or not; what matters is if my student is happy.”
Zhang Jun:”…”
In his many years in the piano field, this was the first time he had seen such a scene!
Mei Shu was indeed talented, to the point where two proud seniors were humbling themselves before her. It seemed that Mei Shu’s achievements in the future would undoubtedly surpass his own.
With this thought in mind, Zhang Jun smiled knowingly, “That’s great! Congratulations to both seniors for gaining an outstanding disciple. But let’s continue with our competition. Do the two seniors want to rest backstage?”
“No need,” Senior Wu immediately rejected Zhang Jun’s suggestion and sat down at the judge’s table. “Since we are already here, we might as well stay as judges. Let the competition continue!”
Now, the remaining students who hadn’t performed were no longer calm.
They had heard about the strictness of these two seniors’ standards. With them present, could they still achieve good rankings?
However, the chance to have their performances evaluated by these two eminent figures was scarce.
Since they were still willing to develop in the piano field, they wouldn’t be frightened off by this small challenge. Soon, they regained their composure, adjusted themselves to their best states, and performed the piano pieces they had practiced for a long time one by one.
The second half of the competition venue fell into silence.
The stern aura of the two seniors made everyone dare not act as casually as before.
However, both Senior Wu and Senior Wen were insightful, and they gave each student a serious evaluation, benefiting many of them greatly..
