Chapter 230 - Stupidity

Under the spotlight, Merlin’s blond wavy hair, beautiful evening gown, expensive jewelry and exquisite makeup made her a rare beauty. People could not take their eyes off her. Su Jin had to admit that Merlin was indeed alluring and was a beauty with incredible face and figure.

Merlin performed a piano piece, a more classical version of “Dream Wedding”. In order to show off her skills, she kept increasing her speed as she played. The tune was not bad, neither was her performance. She could be considered a top-notch amateur pianist.

The crowd applauded loudly when she finished. Merlin’s face was full of pride. When she saw Su Jin, a wicked smile flashed across her face. With a smile, she bowed slightly to the crowd and said, “Thank you all for liking it. Thank you all for giving me this opportunity to perform.”

Everyone was invited by Mr. Max. How could they not give Merlin face? Even if she did not play well, they would still clap loudly, not to mention that she played so well. The crowd commented,

“No, no. It’s Miss Merlin who’s too modest. You play the piano so well. It’s our honor to be able to hear it.”

Merlin was even more full of herself when she heard this, but she kept up her modest appearance. There was even a hint of disappointment on her face, which made people’s hearts ache. Merlin said calmly,

“My level is just a child’s play, and I’ve made a fool of myself. Of course, in order not to disappoint everyone, I recommend a friend who claims to be an international master pianist to perform for us.”

When everyone heard this, they were stunned. Which stupid person would dare to make such a claim? Even if it was true, no one should talk to Miss Merlin like that. Wasn’t that courting death? Someone questioned at once,

“That’s impossible, Miss Merlin. Which shameless person dared to make such a claim?”

When Merlin heard the crowd’s words, a smug smile instantly appeared on her face. She raised her head and looked at Su Jin who was holding on to Xi Chenxiao’s arm. Little missy, let’s see what a child like you can do. Merlin said with a smile,

“It’s Chairman Xi’s wife. Miss Su Jin, please, would you perform for us?”

Su Jin was speechless. What the f*ck? She had been stabbed in the back. She had clearly not

had not played the piano for so many years. She wondered if her skills were still good.

Merlin saw that Su Jin was in a difficult position and smiled in satisfaction. Chairman Xi’s assistant, Xi Shi, had said that she was a useless mute. How could she possibly play the piano? With her excellent performance earlier, Su Jin would be ridiculed by everyone if she played poorly.

When Chairman Xi saw this useless little piece of trash, he would only feel embarrassed. Then he would see the elegant Merlin. He would abandon that little mute without hesitation and fall in love with her, the daughter of a noble family.

Su Jin looked at Merlin who wanted to make a fool of her and frowned. After a moment of silence, she stood up with a smile on her face. Xi Chenxiao saw Su Jin stand up and grabbed her hand as he said softly,

“If you don’t know how, don’t force yourself.”

Su Jin smiled at Xi Chenxiao. Who said I don’t know how? As long as I don’t get nervous later and perform well, I’ll definitely amaze everyone. I’ll defeat this woman who wants to poach someone and make her back down. Su Jin replied calmly,

“Don’t worry. Although I’m not very good at it, I can take care of Merlin without any problem.”

After saying that, Su Jin walked onto the stage. Merlin was first surprised when she saw that Su Jin dared to accept the challenge, then she began to gloat. It’s just a piece of trash asking for humiliation. When Su Jin stood on stage, the crowd below began to mock her mercilessly. “Who is this child? How dare she be so arrogant? Is it because she’s pretty?”

“In my experience, most people who look like that are empty vessels and do not have any real talent.”

“Could it be that this child thinks that just because she’s pretty, we’ll give her encouragement for her face?”

“This child thinks too highly of herself.”

Xi Chenxiao’s face darkened when he heard everyone’s words. This group of stupid people dared to mock his wife. They were simply courting death. This girl might shock all of you later!
