Yao Mengqing was not shy. She smiled generously. âYes, I participated in an international competition three years ago and won the championship as expected.â
Qiao Xi hissed and whispered in Gu Zhengâs ear, âIf I remember correctly, I participated in the same international violin competition three years ago.
âBack then, it was Fourth Brother who registered me, but my skills were not as good and I did not enter the finals. I didnât pay attention to who was the final champion. So, Yao Mengqing was the champion that year?â
The person who brought this up continued, âMay I have the honor of performing a song for you, Miss Yao?â
Qiao Xi glanced at that person indifferently. It was him⦠The musician, Zhao Qinghui. This person had always caused trouble for Fourth Brother.
Yao Mengqing smiled and was not shy at all. âIâm just the champion of one of the competitions. Thereâs nothing to brag about. If Old Master Li doesnât mind, Iâm willing to perform a song to celebrate his birthday. I wish the two of you health and happiness.â
Old Master Li smiled affectionately and agreed.
Yao Mengqing walked over and picked up the exquisite violin. Just as she was about to playâ
Suddenly, Yao Mengqing raised her eyes to look at Qiao Xi and she said meaningfully, âXi Xi, if I remember correctly, you participated in that violin competition as well. If my standard has dropped, donât laugh at me, alright?â
Qiao Xi smiled calmly with a composed expression.
So, that was how it was. Yao Mengqing had lost her reputation at the auction, so she wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge on her and let her have a taste of being mocked.
Yao Mengqing raised her head and placed the violin properly. She raised her arm elegantly, forming a beautiful angle. In order to perform, she even wore a dress that was suitable for playing the violin. Her beautiful figure was outlined, and it did not affect her performance.
Qiao Xi sat at the side and took a sip of red wine before looking at Yao Mengqing with interest.
If Yao Mengqing could become the champion, she must be extraordinary. It was a great thing for the Yao family to be able to make Old Master Li happy. Yao Mengqing could even take the opportunity to trample on Qiao Xi. It was killing two birds with one stone.
According to Yao Mengqingâs character, she would not have asked to perform. Someone had to recommend her. That person was Zhao Qinghui.
Qiao Xi looked at Zhao Qinghui. If she remembered correctly, he was the judge for the violin competition three years ago.
Yao Mengqing played a melodious and cheerful violin tune. This tune had high requirements for the performer, but she played very fluently, making everyone intoxicated in the tune.
Five minutes later, the last note sounded and there was thunderous applause.
âAwesome! The daughter of the Yao family is really talented and good-looking!â
âI didnât expect Yao Mengqing to be so accomplished in music. Iâm fascinated by her. If she can enter the music industry and develop her career there, sheâll definitely have some achievements!â
âItâs just that Miss Yao and Miss Qiao had a conflict. Iâm afraid she wonât be able to enter the music industry anymore.â
Yao Mengqing was not dissatisfied at all and smiled elegantly. âEveryone, youâve misunderstood. Iâm very close to Xi Xi, so I wonât become enemies with her over a violin. I donât think sheâll use Mr. Xue to deal with me either.â
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Qinghui snorted. âMengqing, some people are just jealous of you because youâre talented and good-looking. Thatâs why they keep targeting you. Donât ruin your future because of outsidersâ comments.â
In an instant, everyone present could hear a pin drop.
Everyone looked at Zhao Qinghui, then at Qiao Xi. They were clearly aware in their hearts that the person Zhao Qinghui was talking about was Qiao Xi, and there was no doubt about this.
Yao Mengqing was in a dilemma. âMr. Zhao, donât say thatâ¦â
âWhat canât I say?â Zhao Qinghui looked at Qiao Xi and asked sarcastically, âMiss Qiao, what do you think?â
Qiao Xi put down the cup in her hand and slowly raised her eyes to meet Zhao Qinghuiâs eyes.
Zhao Qinghui said disdainfully, âWhy arenât you commenting on Mengqingâs performance today? Isnât it very exciting? I wonder if you can play this song with your skills?â
The air seemed to have frozen over.
After a while, Qiao Xi slowly raised her eyes and said word after word like a bolt from the blue, âMay I know who you are?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zhao Qinghuiâs expression froze..
